A reader sent me this link!
My first impression was, wow the Skulener Rebbe has a huge home and a large crystal chandelier.
I "fargin" him though I don't have a clue who he is.
I was at his grandfather's tish in Crown Heights when he first arrived from Romania, and I was very impressed with his humility and holiness noticing that, even though I was just a child !
Having said all this, I don't know whether I should laugh or cry reading the story! "Monsey Rabbanim Gather to Address the Yeshiva Student Draft in Eretz Yisrael?"
Yeshiva Bochrim in Eretz Yisrael who are not "learners" need to enlist in the army as per instructions of Rav Shach z"l (see his letter below)! The State of Israel is in a war for its very survival, husbands and sons who are in reserve have been called to duty, and these guys are hanging out smoking and drinking coffee!
My advice to these rabbis is "STOP WASTING YOUR TIME" and work on your own communities! Thousands of "heimishe" boys and girls are going off the derech. in fact I recognized one of the rabbis sitting there who has a daughter who is totally estranged from the community and living with a goy!
I notice that one of the leading rabbis at this meeting is Rabbi Flohr! Rabbi Flohr just slammed the doors of his girls school, abandoning over 300 girls with nowhere to go!
Flohr "batchie" first take care of the girls to make sure they have a placement before you sit to criticize the Holy State of Israel! How about that?
Work on your own communities, we here in Israel don't need your "gatherings"
I don't recall hearing Rabbis gathering to help Soldiers who are putting their lives on the line, who left their jobs and business'! These living widows could use some shekels to keep their families afloat!
לא בדבשך ולא מעקצך ........... We don't need your honey and we don't need your sting!
A group of prominent Rabbonim from Monsey convened on Sunday afternoon at the home of the Skulener Rebbe of Monsey to discuss the growing concerns surrounding the Israeli government’s push to draft yeshiva students into the army. The Skulener Rebbe himself participated in the meeting, though the gathering included a broader group of Rabbonim and community askonim.
The discussion focused on how American Rabbonim, Roshei Yeshiva, and philanthropists can contribute both financially and strategically to support efforts to protect bnei Torah from conscription. The meeting highlighted the importance of unified action, advocacy, and assistance to ensure that yeshiva students in Eretz Yisroel can continue their Torah learning without disruption.
As the situation continues to develop, participants emphasized the need for collaboration and decisive steps to uphold the values and priorities of the Torah world.
