scary stuff - not for the faint of heart.
Update: Just to be absolutely sure there is no misunderstanding, this video is 100%real. fake. Need proof? See what Mom in Israel has to say. (And she's one of the original Burka bloggers...after me of course :)
Hat-tips to: Lurker for sending me the email, and to the very talented Sara K Eisen and friends from the Nofei Aviv neighborhood of Beit Shemesh. Updated to include the following: Sara K Eisen's VERY TALENTED friends are Talli Rosenbaum (she of the swinging cellphone), Jaely Kurtz (who said, let's do a movie about those burqa ladies...), and Deb Weisblatt (who went to Ramle foraging for the Burqas!). Also Raanan Rosenbaum, 19, who is an amazing video editor, if you're making a simcha...
Wherever I am, my blog turns towards Eretz Yisrael טובה הארץ מאד מאד

Sara K Eisen: We KNOW this was a Purim video! How can you take a blog named muqata (see the banner) THAT seriously?
ReplyDeleteBesides; the Forward Article you show in the video (still shot) includes credit to this blog for breaking the story to the jblogosphere :)
well...then hat tip!
ReplyDeleteSara E: Hat-tip to WHO? Do you have a blog I could hat-tip too?
ReplyDeleteI received an anonymous email tip about the video...
LOL...I punctuated incorrectly.
ReplyDeleteDo-over:
Well, then...Hat Tip!! (Rashi: I tip my hat to YOU, re: the Forward Article.)

Sorry Ladies, don't take this personally but a lot more padding is needed. But, a great idea.

Let's celebrate. Waffles for everyone.
ReplyDeleteSara: OK, I'm updating the post with a hat-tip to everyone :)
ReplyDeleteThose Ninja/Burka outfits are from Shuk Ramle/Lod?!
If you send me Raanan's email, we'll give him a plug as well.
(Funny people like yourselves should definitely be blogging!)
Thanks for the link!
ReplyDeleteLOL

ReplyDeleteOh-hilarious! Brilliantly done! Love the scene in Aroma.
ReplyDelete1) Your hands are showing. You clearly are still lacking in your understanding of tzniut.
ReplyDelete2) In a couple of scenes, your legs show--oy vey!!! Indeed, your lack of understanding of tzniut grows by the minute.
3) The shiny letters on the outside of your burqas attract attention to yourselves and are untzanua. How many more times must I point out your lack of understanding of true tzniut?!
And....
4) Don't worry, the above is TOTALLY meant in jest. Happy post-Purim! :-D
That was priceless! Thanks, Jameel!

Sara E: Lousy excuse! Blogging frees the soul :)
ReplyDelete(And to the stupid commenter above, this is a family blog, so inappropriate comments are deleted.)
May free the soul...but not the schedule.

ReplyDeleteno makeup, sheitels, or having to pick out what to wear every day? what a life! :)
why were their knees repeatedly displayed (such as during the jogging scene)? very immodest...
ReplyDeleteI assumed the big letters referred to sins they were overcoming--like Hester Prynne's A...
ReplyDeleteI think that this blog is very interesting, i love when people talk about Israel because these people has many different cultures, and i think that is good to know some of it cultures.
