They think that they are being clever, but what it shows is that many Chassidim living in the USA are totally disconnected with the Jews in shelters in Erez Yisrael! They have no empathy and no sympathy whatsoever!
The American Chassidim "stuck" in Israel during this war, couldn't get out fast enough, and went back to the USA via Mitzrayim
Ironically, it is the season of celebrating the RBS"O taking us out of Mitzrayim, but these Chassidim decided to leave Eretz Yisrael to go back to Mitzrayim!
One returning chusid being questioned upon his arrival at JFK laughingly said, that "Sharm El Shech" reminded of his "Shteeble back home!" Totally clueless to the pain and suffering of his fellow Jews in Eretz Yisrael!
At the end of the seder they will mockingly yell:
לשנה הבאה בירושלים
The word “hit” translates to the Yiddish word for “hat”. So this ad is a takeoff on the old print ad “got milk” I think your reaction is overblown.

DeleteI don’t think DIN is overreacting at all. The ad is in incredibly poor taste.

DeleteLet's reverse this, imagine if Monsey was "hit" by Iranian 2,000 ton Ballistic Missiles and the entire Monsey population would need to be in shelters for hours, and an Israeli Hat firm would put out this ad , I wonder how the Monsey people would react?
Ignorant people without a heart
ReplyDeleteIt’s a disgusting play for words
There are chassidishe people in Monsey who are promoting aliyah -- With housing construction in Beit Sheemush:
