During a demonstration by opponents of legal reform in front of Aryeh Deri's house in the Beit Vegan neighborhood of Jerusalem, high-tech entrepreneur Yishai Green threw money at Haredi yeshiva students who were dancing outside the Shas chairman's house, while the students were demonstrating against him there.

The goal was, apparently, to create an image of ultra-Orthodox Jews chasing money.

But the young Haredi people ignored the bills flying towards them - and continued dancing.
