The opening as it read in 2015

Women's Equal Rights Law of Israel (1951) was a law passed in the Knesset of Israel in 1951. The Law was made shortly following Israeli Declaration of Independence and has been a source of both praise and criticism by feminists and men alike. It should be noted that while the term “equal” is used it is not understood the same as the term “equal” would be in the American sense of the word. The Israeli use of the term equal implies according to feminist intellectual Catherine MacKinnon the “Aristotelian notion that equality entails the treatment of likes alike and un-likes differently in accordance with their unlikeness”. This is known as substantive equality known in gender studies circles as "Equal treatment/special treatment" equal opportunity This archaic interpretation of equality is at the heart of modern Israeli thought on gender equality. It was what made possible the restrictive laws prohibiting women from entering combat positions in the Israeli Defense Forces . This line of thinking was also implemented when Israel created the Women's Corps Women's Affairs advisor as a separate unit. The Women's Corps divided soldiers not on their technical skills or occupation ( artillery , medic , infantry ) but by their gender instead. Calling the Equality Bluff: Women in Israel .
