Oy ... This sounds crazy but Yogi Berra z"l comes to mind..
he famously said it's "De ja vu all over again"
If you ever got a chance to read the book "Hitler's Willing Executioners" by Daniel Jonah Goldhagen, you would read how the Ukrainians ... yes the grandparents of the Uman locals, "voluntarily hunted Jews like animals, tortured them wantonly and then posed cheerfully for snapshots with their victims."
Now the grandchildren of these victims crawl back to the blood soaked cursed earth of Uman Ukraine on the holiest day of the year leaving their families behind, spending millions of hard earned Jewish dollars, ....for what?
To leave Eretz Yisrael ... the land that Reb Nachman said is "where his soul is.".....
And who is Rav Arush blaming?
Bibi Netanyahu.... yes .. you heard it here first...
Rav Arush is calling Bibi a "Liar" ... why?
because Bibi said that he was working with the Ukrainian Government to allow more Jews to visit Uman...and that he is a "liar."
Insane ...
It could very well be that Bibi is a "liar" and that he is doing nothing in pushing Rabbi Arush's agenda ...

Bibi should tell the good Rabbi Arush, straight up, that he will absolutely not cooperate with any Ukrainian official even if that means that another Israeli Jew will not be able to travel to Uman...
Bibi should ask Rabbi Arush:
Where does Hashem want an Israeli Jew to be on Rosh Hashana?
In the cursed land of Ukraine, eating free "Shiner" food, and where they are not wanted and are hated.
Or would Hashem want the Israeli Jew to stay in the blessed
land of Eretz Yisrael .. that He gifted to the children of Avraham, Yitzchak and Yaakov, and where they are wanted and loved.
think about it ....
Jews visiting the Ukrainian town of Uman are being attacked by locals, with violence spiraling “out of control”, a senior Breslov rabbi in Israel said Monday.
In an interview with Kol Barama radio Monday morning, Rabbi Shalom Arush, who heads the Hut Shel Hesed organization, said that residents of Uman are now systematically targeting Jewish visitors, viewing them as a threat due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.
“Things have gotten out of control,” said Rabbi Arush. “Right now Uman is closed off, but those Jews who somehow manage to get there are getting beaten by Ukrainian locals who claim that the Jewish visitors are spreading disease.”
Rabbi Arush dismissed Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu’s vow to try to reach a deal with the Ukrainian government to enable some Jews to visit Uman this Rosh Hashanah.
“I only believe in prayer, not in anyone else. The Prime Minister said that there is a compromise plan, but I don’t rely on them at all, they’ve lied again and again in the past.”
Last week, the Ukrainian government announced that it will bar entry to non-citizens starting from September 1st, with the ban running through September 28th, coinciding with the end of the Rosh Hashanah – Yom Kippur holidays, which begin on September 18th and end on the 28th.
In most years, tens of thousands of Jewish pilgrims, mostly Breslov Hasidim from Israel, visit Uman during the Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur holidays to pray near the grave of Rabbe Nachman, the founder of the Breslov Hasidic movement.
