What a bunch of self-hating Jews:

I think it's really strange that this is going on within Israel.

What is the bigger desecration: that Jews are eating pork in Israel or Ha'aretz' existence?

I hope that they all suffer for their wanton disregard of Jewish law. I am sure Hashem is displeased and one must wonder in whose merit Israel still exists?

If there are any people who are working to destroy Israel and the Jewish people it is those Jews who openly violate the commandments. That chillul Hashem is the reason we all will be expelled once again.

I consider myself secular but avoid pork products.  That Jews would go out of their way to eat pork is sad.  I guess it is a less expensive meat.

It does seem like they're doing this to deliberately thumb their nose at more observant Jews by doing it in such a public manner.

It's now hard to find a genuinely kosher restaurant in Tel-Aviv. The majority of restaurants me and wife looked into served unkosher meat or meat with milk.  It got to a point that we had to ask if the meat was kosher and they would shrug...sure enough the first night we arrived, there were no places available and we had to eat vegetarian (as we usually do in the United States because there are barely any kosher places here that are halfway decent or healthy).

However everywhere we were in Israel we always checked to see if the place was kosher.  Back in the day before they allowed non Jewish Russians (and the Israeli government call them Jewish), there was no issue if a place was kosher.

However, in Tel-Aviv, it's really bad..the vast majority of places are unkosher.  In Jerusalem and Ashdod, so far, it's pretty good. The majority of places in those cities are..but there a good number of nonkosher restaurants there as well.

I would be extremely upset if I were in your shoes. If the world's only Jewish country doesn't serve kashrut food, what the heck is a devout Jew to do, anywhere?

They should serve pork to the Arab Muslim Nazis.

 Hashem purposely forbidded us from eating the most unhealthy sick disgusting animal that brings the world diseases.
