EGGED and its Commercials

B"H

The state - owned Israeli bus company EGGED decided not to use any further commercials or advertising posters with women appearing.
No more commercials with women on Israeli buses. Only male models are allowed to be seen.

With this decision, EGGED wants to avoid further vandalism on its buses. In the past, haredi extremists had ripped off advertising posters or destroyed even the whole bus.

Of course, this kind of vandalism has not being carried out by all Haredim but rather by a very tiny extreme minority.

Is EGGED giving in too much ?
