AVI SCHICK: Does the State Education Department really care about education? Or control?

Last week an appellate hearing took place, in the fight to prevent the state from imposing tough restrictions on Yeshivas. In this fascinating interview, renowned attorney Avi Schick breaks down last week's hearing, and the latest effort by the state to strike down the Supreme court ruling which favored yeshivas. 

He discusses the 'disingenuous' claims made the state lawyers, who say that the state is not trying to close down or de-fund yeshivas. 

He points out that the state was doing contortions to avoid the suggestion that they may close yeshivas, because they fear its a toxic death blow to their case. 

He also discussed some of the amazing quesions by the Apellate Judges themselves.
