No one yelled "Nazi" and no one threw rocks, No one spat at them and no one yelled "Shabbos Shabbos" I wonder why? Who did the video?
FYI this Satmar Shul is sitting on land that was "muchzak" to be a Jewish Cemetary.
When I was a teenager, I remember that a developer was breaking ground there to build, and Satmar would have violent protests on that site to prevent anyone building there. The developer then abandoned his plans and the property went down 75% in value, and when I returned just 3 years later, poof.. there was a Satmar Shul on that very site.
I think the dead came back to claim it!
A huge fire broke out at the Beirach Moshe-Satmar shul in Geulah on Shabbos morning at 4:30 AM. The entire Beis Midrash was gutted and significant damage was caused to the Talmud Torah situated on the upper floor.
Some of the Sifrei Torah and Tefillin were damaged in the fire but firemen managed to rescue most of them.
Shai Nehemia, the chief fireman at the Umah fire station, said that “Firefighters from our station discovered a large fire on the roof of the Beis Midrash which borders the yeshiva’s 3 storys. Heavy smoke entered the yeshiva building and caused heavy damage. The roof of the Beis Midrash collapsed.
“Firemen prevented the fire from spreading to adjacent buildings and evacuated the residents of those buildings.
“Eight Sifrei Torah were rescued. Some of them were damaged. Hundreds of holy books and sets of Tefillin were also rescued despite the fire in the roof and the serious possibility that it would collapse. The determination of the firefighters prevented a serious tragedy and prevented loss of life and damage to property.
“A special investigatory committee has been established to determine the reasons for the fire.”
Initial reports suggest that the fire broke out from a Shabbos hot plate which was prepared for a kiddush to take place in the morning.

Din, you are so cynical. Or maybe not, and instead its that Satmar is so hypocritical. I think the latter.
ReplyDeleteThe usual protests against the police happen when they blatantly desecrate Shabbos in religious neighborhoods . Extinguishing a fire is permissible on Shabbos because of Pikuach nefesh. There's no reason to protest, and therefore there's this is not hypocrisy at all .

ReplyDeleteAccording to all reports there was absolutely no danger of anyone getting hurt as the fire was contained in the building alone, according to Halacha, they should have stood back and watch the building burn down, but since Zionist Fireman care about the Satmar community as they care about all comunities, they contained the fire. This is not about the "police blatantly desecrating Shabbos" this was about Firemen! If the fire would have been a block down with another shul, Satmar holligans would have been throwing rocks and screaming Shabbos and Nazii at them.

ReplyDeleteIt has been confirmed by Chadrei Chadarim and other Chreidie News outlets that it was a MIspallel of the Shul that picked up his phone on Shabbos (Shabbos! Shabbos! Shabbos!) a Satmar Chusid who called the Zionist Police.
Interesting!
There are only 3 cardinal sins that we pasken יהרוג ועל יעבור and Shabbos is not one them, but the Vayoel Moshe added another one, "Zionism", so according to the founder of the Satmar Chassidus it is prohibited to call Zionists at any time or any reason even if your life is on the line, so how is it that the violated an issur of יהרוג ועל יעבור? The obvious answer is that if it is in fact a Satmar Moisid then we push all issurim aside even if it is a cardinal sin of Zionism!
Hypocrisy indeed!
I'm wondering 9:15 if your child went off the derech and was מחלל שבת and joined the Fire brigade, how you would feel if your neighbor threw stones at him and yelled Nazi while going out and protecting the community? Think about it!
Not only did they call the Zionist police but according to BeChadrei Chadarim, a Charedie filmed the fire on Shabbos with a smart phone. DIn was on the money, the dead came back to claim their property!
ReplyDeleteThank you din for always being on target and even when a Shul burns down with Sifrei Torah, tefilen etc with countless ppl homeless. You figured out the most important point of the story
ReplyDelete8:32
ReplyDeleteNo Sifrei Torah or Tefilin and no one went homeless, thanks to the dedicated Firemen and Police.
There were no Sifrei Torah damaged according to Der Yid the Satmar Newspaper!
ReplyDeleteTefillin and Sifrei Torah were NOT damaged. Satmar initially reported that they were damaged to justify that they did not scream Shabbos and Nazi.
ReplyDeleteZionists came thru once more
DeleteFalse as usual
