אֵשֶׁת-חַיִל, מִי יִמְצָא; וְרָחֹק מִפְּנִינִים מִכְרָהּ. מִשְׁלֵי לא,י
A woman of valor who can find? for her price is far above rubies.
Proverbs 31:10
YNET: Rabbis' Wives: Don't Date Arabs
New letter signed by rabbis' wives appeals to women urging them to stay away from Arabs. 'As soon as they have in you in their grasp – everything becomes different. Attention will be replaced with curses, physical abuse and humiliation,' letter states

These women should be praised for their wisdom and their courage! They are truly women of valor.
And, as it also says...
חַכְמוֹת נָשִׁים, בָּנְתָה בֵיתָהּ; וְאִוֶּלֶת, בְּיָדֶיהָ תֶהֶרְסֶנּוּ. מִשְׁלֵי יד,א
Every wise woman builds her house; but the foolish plucks it down with her hands. Proverbs 14:1
Just as Shifra and Pu'ah were rewarded with "houses" for saving the lives of newly born B'nei Yisra'el (Ex. 1:21), these rabbis' wives are working to maintain those houses.
Whereas, any woman who has a blind eye or encourages such behavior is nothing less than plucking them down.
