Note: I do not want to bash this popular site, as it is a benefit for Frum Jewish people, and serves a great purpose, but lately, one of their administrators who hates Israel, keeps making outrageous comments on news stories about the State of Israel. I don't know where this guy learned but I'll bet he was brainwashed with propaganda and now thinks that he has a license to spread this garbage on this WhatsApp group!
A fellow calling himself “Mr. B,” apparently an administrator of this Lakewood‑based WhatsApp group, has been getting bolder—and more absurd—with each outrageous comment he posts.
From the comfort of Lakewood, nearly 6,000 miles away from Eretz Yisrael, Mr. B feels perfectly entitled to spew venom at the only Jewish state in the world, home to over 7.5 million Jews.
Distance hasn’t stopped him from pouring out hostility toward a country he doesn’t live in and whose dangers he doesn’t share.
Mr. B is now openly encouraging protests in Israel—despite the fact that three teenagers were killed as a direct result of those very protests.
In the January 28 issue of Ami magazine, Attorney Dror Schussheim—the lawyer who successfully petitioned Israel’s Supreme Court to block autopsies on the two babies who died in a Yerushalayim daycare—stated clearly:
“Protests don’t change a thing.”
The Satmar Rebbe of Kiryas Yoel echoed the same point, prohibiting his chassidim from attending further demonstrations because they “don’t accomplish anything” and are “dangerous.”
Mr. B, meanwhile, has no stake in any of this. He has no “dog in the race.” I wonder what he would say if, G‑d forbid, it were his child who was injured or killed. It’s easy to have a “B”ig mouth when you’re thousands of miles away, urging others to jump into the fire while your own family faces zero consequences.
I didn’t even see his post firsthand—my readers sent it to me, asking that I respond למען השם to his twisted remarks.
And what is his “proof” that “protests are the best way to get things done”?
He cites—of all people—the same Attorney General, Gali Baharav‑Miara, whose policies he otherwise despises. The irony would be comical if it weren’t so pathetic.
Channel 12 News revealed a recording from a July 2023 government meeting. In the recording, Israel’s Attorney General, Gali Baharav-Miara, appeared to justify disruptive actions during protests against the government’s proposed judicial reforms in 2023.🙈
In the recording, Baharav-Miara is heard saying that “there is no effective protest without disrupting public order,” a remark that has sparked criticism from political figures and public commentators.
Opponents accused the Attorney General of legitimizing disorder and crossing a professional line, while supporters argued that the comment reflects a broader discussion about the nature and impact of civil protest.
*Mr. B*- and that this is why the charedim protest, because everyone in Israel knows that this is one of the best ways, if not the best way to get things done around there...
I do not understand why you even bring this on your blog. This person is a nobody here in Lakewood. Stop recognizing or mentioning him.
