The President of the State of Israel is supposed to represent the State [even though he lacks political power].
Recently, the President spoke [via zoom] at the graduation of JTS and sang the praises of the Conservative movement. Ammiel Hirsch, a Reform cleric, related that the President called him and asked how he could help advance the goals of that movement.
So who exactly does he represent? Most Israelis are either religious or less religious to varying degrees but very few are Reform or Conservative, those errant movements with whom the President flirts.
How sad and unfortunate that a צדיק יסוד עולם like Rav Yitzchak Herzog has a grandson and namesake who has such distorted beliefs and in such a public way.
