Michael Decker, senior legal activist for the Jerusalem Institute of Justice, has appealed to the State Comptroller with the request that an investigation be opened into the relationship between Yad L’Achim and the Ministry of Interior.
The Caspari Center notes a Haaretz report in which Decker is quoted as writing:
“‘As a government office established on the ashes of those persecuted for their belief and their religious affiliation, the Ministry of Interior cannot be allowed to depend upon a factual basis whose source derives from a dubious third party whose express purpose is to engage in religious persecution’ [...] ‘The Ministry cannot be allowed to adopt the narrow and primitive worldview of members of an organization which bears a striking resemblance to the secret police.’”
