Bnei-Torah Terrorize and Smash Car Window of Judge Sohlberg Who was always Sympathetic to Charedim..


רשע למה תכה רעך

This story is absolutely wild — and it says far more about the leadership vacuum than about the kids on the street.

Judge Noam Sohlberg is a shomer Torah u’mitzvos, of reasonable mind, and one of the few Supreme Court justices who consistently rules with sensitivity toward chareidi needs. And yet he becomes a target for harassment simply because a group of Bnei-Torah have nothing productive to do and no one in authority willing to rein them in.

This isn’t about ideology. It’s about boredom, lack of structure, and zero accountability.

When thousands of young men are told:

  • not to serve

  • not to work and then don't learn

you create a pressure cooker. They’re restless, they’re idle, and they’re looking for stimulation. And when the adults in the room — the roshei yeshiva, the rebbes, the askanim — respond with silence, the message is unmistakable:

“Do whatever you want. No consequences.”

So the “entertainment” becomes intimidation.The “excitement” becomes mob behavior. And the “cause” becomes whatever excuse justifies the chaos of the moment.

This isn’t Torah.This isn’t yiras Shamayim. This is what happens when a community refuses to confront the reality that a large percentage of its youth are drifting, unanchored, and desperate for meaning — and instead of giving them purpose, it gives them slogans.

The tragedy is that the leadership knows this.They see it.They feel it. And they still choose silence.

Because silence is easier than responsibility. And the moment boredom turns into a hobby, every decent Jew becomes a target.

A protest by dozens of Haredi demonstrators outside the home of Israeli Supreme Court Deputy President Noam Sohlberg turned violent Wednesday evening, with authorities reporting damage to the property and widespread condemnation from government officials and the judiciary. 

The protesters gathered outside Sohlberg’s residence in Alon Shvut, a settlement in the West Bank, to oppose what they said were judicial measures aimed at increasing enforcement against ultra-Orthodox men who evade military service.
