This is how they view our women, ככה הם רואים הנשים שלנו

What is wrong with this picture?


The above photo came from a Yishmaeli site.  They are comparing their levels of modesty to ours, and purposefully denigrating ours.

Note:
  • our Orthodox Jewish women not covering their collar bone and wide necklines (see Rabbi Falk's Modesty, Adornment for Life)
  • our Orthodox Jewish women not covering all their hair even in their hair covering, revealing hair that should be covered (see Rabbi Falk's Modesty, Adornment for Life)
  • our Orthodox Jewish women wearing clothes that are tight fit, showing the curves (see Rabbi Falk's Modesty, Adornment for Life)
  • our Orthodox Jewish women with lots to say (notice open mouth), perhaps suggesting Loshon Hora?
Is there any truth to this? You decide.

This year, make it your business to study the Halachos of Tzniut (Jewish Modesty) and understand why we are not dressing up to Hashem's standards of modesty for us, and try to become a light unto the nations, instead of the laughing stock of the nations.  The Jewish women have it in their hands to prevent the Yishmaelim from taking over Eretz Yisrael and the entire nation for 9 months before Moshiach comes b'ita.
Rav said: Moshiach ben Dovid will come only after the kingdom will rule over Israel 9 months, as it is said, therefore He shall give them until the time of birth, a young girl and the rest of her brothers shall return to the Children of Israel. (Sanhedrin 98b)
