Rabbi Yosef Mizrachi going off the deep end! Says Nazis killed Ashkenazi Jews and spared Sefardim because Ashkenazim allowed "assimilation!

Rabbi Yosef Mizrachi

This beardless Rabbi who quotes constantly from the Zohar HaKodesh ignores the Zohar when it comes to himself. 

For example the Zohar prohibits a Jew from trimming his beard .

But now he went totally off the cliff with his knowledge of why the Nazis killed the Jews!

I always thought that it was because they hated Jews; 
Rabbi Mizrachi speaks directly to G-D, and he knows better!

But the facts are that, 60,000 Greek Jews were murdered by the Nazis, 8,000 Macedonian Jews were murdered etc etc, 
but let's not confuse the Rabbi with the facts!

This speech was a huge Chillul Hashem,

כל מקום שיש חילול השם אין חולקין כבוד לרב

His statements are not only ignorant and wrong but also insensitive.

Ignorant, because many non ashkenazim suffered at the hands of the Nazis as well. 
His premise stating Sefardim were more adherent to Torah, is a farce. Look around, (today, like before the war) most Sefardi communities in the world are, on the whole, marginally observant. 

Communities in all of south america have communities where their adherence to orthodoxy is tenuous at best (I've seen it). Even in New York and Los Angeles where there are burgeoning and flurishing Ashkenazi communiities, 

The Sefardi communities on the whole display very lax orthodoxy (don't tell me it's their minhag). 
Examples of which include lax rules on tznius, kashrus and Shabbos.

What's more appaling is the notion that one can distinguish between Ashkenazi and Sefardi and not feel the Shoah was a tragedy on the Jewish people as a whole. Shameful.

While on topic, Sefardi leadership should discourage their members from purchasing and driving expensive German cars as its use as a status symbol is insensitive to our survivor parents. 

 Speaking at Hasmonean Hight School this past Monday, controversial Orthodox Rabbi Yosef Mizrachi told a group of Jewish senior boys that Ashkenazi Jews suffered the Holocaust because they had become more assimilated, and less respectful of rabbis—-while the “unassimilated” Sephardi Jews, “in Syria, Israel, Iran, Iraq—-places where almost all the Jews were keeping the laws—-they [the Nazis] did not kill them.”

THEJC.com (http://bit.ly/1fOyVbi) reports that Mizrachi went on to tell the boys that those killed in Nazi gas chambers were “guilty” of not preventing their “Jewish brothers and sisters” from becoming assimilated.

Sources said Mizrachi’s appearance at the school was met by protests and harsh criticism from concerned residents familiar with his views.
