The most popular Israeli news website reported that the sudden trip to the United States that the leader of a large Hasidic group took a few weeks ago, was to escape possible charges of sexually abusing women and girls who came to him for advice.
The rabbi, is believed to be 75-year-old Rabbi Eliezer Berland, the chief of the Shuvu Bonim Breslov sect. He is a member of the Vaad Olami D'Chasedai Breslov or World Committee of Breslov Chassidim and is credited with helping thousands of secular Jews to convert to Hasidic Judaism.
Berland is currently in Miami, Florida, according to press reports in the United States.
The father of a 15-year-old girl who was allegedly raped by the rabbi told Army Radio that when his 15-year-old daughter told him about the abuse his older daughter also came forward and admitted that the rabbi had sexually abused her, too.
It is rumored that up to 20 women and girls were sexually abused by the rabbi. Several of his followers recently caught the rabbi naked with a naked underage girl, according to press reports in Israel.
Sounds like Avi Finkel in Lakewood,nj who is Meyached himself with women and flirts with Them When Their Husbands are not home
ReplyDeleteHe's just a horny old man! Need to get him a hooker instead of these girls
ReplyDeleteper per per pervert
ReplyDeletePlease give me a break. Shmuel Meir Eckstein of Boro Park Brooklyn is the real predator
ReplyDeleteThe Whole World Knows The Truth. Rabbi Berland is a big Tzadik! The Israeli evil Government (who put all of Am Yisrael to shame) have a personal vendetta against the Rabbi for many many years, because he did the worst thing possible to the secular government.
ReplyDeleteWHAT DID HE DO TO THEM? to the government?
He brought back thousands and thousands of Yidden back to Teshuva. He even brought back some of the government officials children and grandchildren to Hashem. And in their warped minds he is the biggest criminal for doing that. Chas V'Shalom.
He is a great Rav, and its unbelievable how disgusting this whole "Zionist episode" is.
May Hashem open their blind eyes and may every one of them do a complete Teshuva and may we all be zoche to the Geula Shleima B’Karov. Amen!
ReplyDeleteThank you for speaking up on behalf of R' Eliezer Berland.
The filth that other JEWS have written & continue to write about him is a NATIONAL disgrace!
Those of us who know that he is INNOCENT, also know the EMET... we see how easily people love to condemn what they know nothing about! If you know nothing -- keep your mouths SHUT!
The perpetuation of this horrific slander is a tremendous CHILUL HASHEM.
What is wrong with ALL of you?
One day, all of those who brought charges against him will ask him for MECHILAH... just wait and see!
THIS ENTIRE *AFFAIR* IS A TRAGEDY! BUSHAH v'CHERPAH
Rav Berland is a TZADIK -- All the GREAT Rabbanim know this! You -- LITTLE PEOPLE -- will never understand him! This is, also, a tragedy.
May we all be zoche to greet PNEI MASHIACH TZIDKAINU bimheirah, amen.
