Is it required by Israel's law?

Hello,

At the moment people are not required to wear a kippah but I am starting a campaign to enforce every man, whatever his religion, to wear one - including tourists and businessmen.

It is not required by Israel's law for every every Jew to wear a Kippah. In some parts of the country, like Jerusalem, for example, nearly every Jewish person wears a kippah. In other parts, like Tel Aviv, almost no one wears a kippah.
no, not at all.... those who are very religious wear it... but you don't have to... it's a choice
wearing a kipa is a choice unless you go to a jewish holy place...it is not required by law but some religious people do wear it every day
No, not at all. Only more religious Israeli men wear one.
No, most of the Jews of Israel are not religious.
No, it is not required by law.
its just the same as any western democracy. Why would you think its different? Do they require people to wear crosses in England?

and as a not most Jewish men in Israel do not wear a kippah.
