Frum IDF Soldier attacked in Bnei Brak, Attackers shout "R' Chaim Kanievsky ordered us to attack"

A frum Israeli  soldier, Baruch Indig said that he was attacked by a group of frum Jews while waiting for a bus at a Bnei Brak bus stop.

The soldier who lives in Bnei Brak, was attacked on Tuesday.

“I wanted to share with you something from my heart. A few minutes ago, I was in uniform standing at a bus station on Rabbi Akiva Street in Bnei Brak, waiting for a bus to take me home. Several ultra-Orthodox Jews approached me and gave me a poster that read ‘stinking bug get out of town.’ 

Then, they began shouting that I should leave the city because I am a disgrace to Judaism,”

The soldier said that he felt humiliated. 
“The group said that they were ordered to attack soldiers by Rabbi Chaim Kanievsky,” Indig added.

Indig also said that he is ashamed of having been raised in the ultra-Orthodox Jewish city of Bnei Brak. 

Rabbi David Zvi Carlstein warned that those who humiliate Frum soldiers, have no portion in the world to come.

AMI Magazine Defends Lev Tahor, the Cult that Abuses Women and Children

Yitzy Frankfurter, the editor of the Anti-Zionist magazine, Ami, never ceases to amaze me with his stupidity.

In his filthy March 26 edition, the clown interviewed, Wolfgang Schwanitz, a communist and former head of  Stasi, the Secret Police of former East Germany. 
Wolfgang  co-authered the book, "Nazis, Islamists and the Making of the Modern Middle East." with Barry Rubin.

Frankfurter starts his lunacy with this statement:

"The provocative title of a review in Tablet Magazine, 
"Did Zionism Cause the Holocaust? 
A New Biography Says Yes", 
was enough to Pique (Yitzy learned a new word) my curiosity about the newly released book."

This שונאי ישראל, Frankfurter, was "piqued" because he got excited that a communist, the head of a  murderous police force, agreed with Frankfurter's sick premise that "Zionism caused the Holocaust."

How demented can a human being get?

It gets worse, he then quotes David Mikics, the reviewer of the book..

"If you follow Rubin and Schwanitz's logic, Zionism is responsible for the Holocaust. No Zionist colonization of Palestine would mean no Arab anti-Semitism, which means no al-Husaini, which means no Final Solution."


A few weeks ago, he "interviewed" his Rebbe, the present Rosh Yeshivah of Brisk, R' Dovid Soloveitchik, another  Sonei Yisroel, who once said that the second biggest threat to Yiddishkeit after Zionism, is Chabad! 
You can't make this craziness up. 

How does a Roshei Yeshivah, a leader of thousands of Yeshiva guys, totally put down and disparage a movement that was Mekareiv hundreds of thousands, if not millions of Jews throughout the world?
Is the R' Dovid an "Erlicher Yid?" I doubt it. An "Erlicher Yid" doesn't talk Loshon Harah on a Manhig Yisroel. Brisker "Peios" doesn't make someone Erlich!  This is where the clown Frankfurter got his radical fanatical hatred of Israel. From an old man who hated Chassidim except for Satmar, because he shared a common despise and hatred for the State of Israel!

Chabad the second biggest threat to Yiddishkeit? 
What a bunch of lunatics!

So, now, in his Pesach edition, he defends a cult that beats the hell out of it's toddlers and abuses their lady cultist members!

The pervert Helbrans (left) with the clown, Frankfurter

His Headline?
"A Visit to Lev Tahor, The Real, Inside Story"
Notice he writes "real"

His Byline?
"The unjust persecution of a group of pious Jews, and the unsettling silence of the Jewish community"

This Frankfurter, a scion of apes, (I'm beginning to think that maybe Darwin had a point) interviews the meshiginer Helbrans!
Frankfurter loads all the pages with smiling Lev Tahor boys!

I am not going to quote or comment on the lies and exaggerations in the article, suffice it to say that it is a work of fiction.

Kloisenberger Rebbe of New York, Causes massive Chullul Hashem, calls Fireman "Nazi"

 Thank G-D we live in a Medina of Chesed, where local Fireman  provide safe designated areas for Chametz burning. 

Posted on all corners were signs stating  the time and areas where chometz burning would be permitted.

This Erev Yom Tov, Erliche Jews got up early to burn the chomets in those areas. 

But the Klausenberger Rebbe of New York, chronically late, came after the Firemen were already extinguishing the fire, and called the Fireman, "Nazis"! 

Here is a great example of his leadership!

No Point in visiting Graves in Europe, says Israel Kloisenberger Rebbe

Finally, a Chassidic Leader, saying the right thing and something that makes sense!

 For years I couldn't understand why Erliche Yiddin, left their families in Israel and the USA to celebrate the Yurzeit of Rebbes long gone, on soil that is wet with the blood of murdered  Jews!

Why hand millions and millions of dollars to anti-Semites?

Recently there was a trip to Poland on the Yurzeit of the Rebbi of Lizensk. Thousands of naïve clueless Jews from around the globe ran to Poland to hand over money to the cursed Poles! Was this an Aliyah of the Neshama of the great Tzaddik of Lizensk? I doubt it!
I think that the Rebbe of Lizensk would have told you, to buy your wife an Ipad instead!
This mass hysteria of visiting Kevarim in Europe was an agenda pushed by the Tourist industry!
I never gave a penny when they came to collect money to fix up the Jewish cemeteries in Europe. How about collecting money to those who are still alive?
Guys, you have nothing to do with your money?
Do you know that there are hundreds frum boys sitting home or in public schools because the tuitions are sky high?
Instead of supporting the European murderers, donate to the families that cannot afford tuition and sit home!

Here is the Story reported about the Klausinberger Rebbe!

While countless Jews worldwide flock to the far reaches of Europe and Israel to daven at the graves of tzadikim, a well known Chasidic rabbi has questioned the validity of the custom, suggesting that it is inappropriate.

In a recent address to representatives of Arachim on Holocaust related matters in his home, the Sanz-Klausenburger Rebbe from Israel , Rabbi Zvi Elimelech Halberstam, said that his father Rabbi Yekusiel Yehudah Halberstam, the first Sanz-Klausenberger Rebbe did not believe in the custom, as reported on Israeli news site B’Chadrei Chareidim.

“I believe that for our bochurim and avreichim, what connects us to the Holocaust and the generations that preceded it is to learn the seforim and the words of these giants in Torah and to continue in their ways. 

My father would say that if a talmid learns the words of Rabbi Shimon, then Rabbi Shimon would be right next to him.  He himself never traveled often to Meiron, going once every few years.  When we learned in yeshiva, it never even occurred to us to go to Lag B’Omer on Meiron and there was a regular schedule of learning in the yeshiva just like any other day.”

The Sanzer Rebbe noted that trips to the graves of even renowned rabbonim like the Baal Shem Tov and the Magid of Mezritch were very rare in the Chasidic community.

“My father would say that the tzadikim were elevated to Eretz Yisroel after their deaths and that really, they are no longer buried there. 

Certainly today when there are no Jews left in these places their graves are empty,” said the Sanzer Rebbe
.
The Rebbe noted that for those who are less observant, trips to Europe can serve a useful purpose.
“For those that we hope to bring closer to yiddishkeit, it is beneficial to take them to Europe in the hopes that we can awaken certain feelings within them.  Let them learn about our glorious past and the holy congregations by taking them to these places so that they can realize that without a past there is no future, hopefully bringing them closer to the foundations of Judaism.”

The Sanzer Rebbe was also asked if it is appropriate to bring children to visit concentration camps.
“It would have to be someone who is capable of understanding, even to a small degree, what happened there so that we could learn from it about the history of the Jewish people.  But in truth, it is really impossible for any human being to comprehend the atrocities that took place during that time. 

There are so many who have questions but in truth, it was a terrible period of hester panim.  Yet when you see the wonderful rebirth of yiddishkeit and the Torah world today, that is also something unusual and we learn from it that there is someone engineering everything that happens in the world.”

Like many other Holocaust survivors, the Sanzer Rebbe’s father, R’ Yekusiel Yehudah Halberstam, never returned to his birthplace after the war.

“Once he was nearby and he had an opportunity to visit those cities and he refused to go,” recalled the Sanzer Rebbe.  “There was a time that they brought Polish cleaning girls to America and my mother wanted to bring one into the house. My father said he could not be in the house with anyone from Poland and there are those for whom it is very difficult to return to those places.”

The Rebbe was also asked if his father ever suggested a reason for the Holocaust, such as assimilation or not giving proper respect to synagogues.

“If only those who did those things were killed then perhaps that might be a reason,” said the Rebbe.
“But it is impossible to say that when so many righteous people, G-d fearing people and talmidim chochomim were killed.  The tragedy of the Holocaust is too enormous to comprehend or to try to explain.  It was something that defied the laws of nature and it is important to realize that we can’t understand everything that happens in the world.”
There were some bright spots even during the darkest times, observed the Sanzer Rebbe.
“There were so many cases of hashgacha pratis, so many who were miraculously saved.  The Belzer Rebbe said that anyone who was saved from the concentration camps was accompanied by two malachim. Even so, we are not able to comprehend why this one was saved and this one was not.”

No Chometz for Your Dog!

Earlier this week, as she prepared for Passover, Shannon Gessner suddenly remembered her dog, Marcy.
“This is our first Passover together,” says the 32-year-old account manager who lives on the Upper West Side with her 3-year-old mini-schnauzer. An observant “modern Orthodox” Jewish woman, Gessner has had the stray rescue since July and didn’t know what to do about her pup’s food for the upcoming holy festival, which starts Monday and lasts eight days.
“I e-mailed my rabbi about how to prepare for Passover when you have a dog,” says Gessner.
When it comes to the annual celebration, some observant pet owners don’t only avoid eating grains and leavened breads, known as chametz, themselves; they also have Fido and Fluffy abide by the dietary restrictions to keep their homes holy.
For the past 20 years, Star-K, a kosher certification agency, has been publishing an annual list of Passover-friendly pet foods. The brands on the list aren’t necessarily kosher, but they are Passover-friendly in that they are free of wheat and rice.
This year’s list was posted in early March, since many pet owners make the food transitions slowly so their pets have time to get used to the new foods.
“It’s not soon enough,” jokes Rabbi Zvi Goldberg with Star-K. “We get calls about Passover even in January.”
Rebecca Singer Walker, the 30-year-old director of the Israeliness Community at the 92Y, doesn’t look to the Star-K list for her 8-year-old Yorkie, Miles. She just feeds him what she eats.
“I’m going to be cooking beef or chicken or fish,” says Walker, a Riverdale resident.
For some, tweaking their pets’ diet is too much hassle, and they go for other options.
“Depending on how strict you are, some people might board their pet for a week,” says Rabbi Ayelet S. Cohen, the director of the Center for Jewish Living at the Jewish Community Center on the Upper West Side.
Others ceremoniously “sell” their pet’s food to a nonobservant friend for Passover. That way, Cohen explains, “the food doesn’t belong to you, it just lives in your house.”
That’s what Rikki Davidson, 29, plans to do. Davidson, who lives on the Upper West side with her husband, her son and her 7-year-old Maltese, Zoe, doesn’t want to be wasteful, so she plans to sell Zoe’s favorite treat, Nutri Dent, to a nonobserver and keep it in their house. After the holiday, she’ll buy it back. The dog’s regular kibble isn’t an issue.
“Zoe happens to be on a grain-free dog food,” Davidson explains.
Things aren’t so convenient for Gessner and Marcy.
“I was hoping I would get away with feeding her dog food, but [my rabbi] wants to err on the side of caution, so we’re going to be cooking for her,” says Gessner.
She plans to feed Marcy “human food,” which will include organic kosher meat and apples, instead of her typical diet of Orijen kibble. The pup will also have to forego her favorite treats, Wagatha’s biscuits and chewy bully sticks.
“It’s going to be hard, though, because she loves to chew,” says Gessner. “But I’m handmaking her breakfast and dinner, so she’ll survive.”

New "Mishpacha" Poll of Secular Jews, show that they don't "Hate Chareidim"

Chareidie leaders, in order to control their gullible sheep, fed them lies about Zionists and Secular Jews!
See this recent poll by the Chareidim themselves that prove that they were lying all along!

The Haredi political leadership has built its power base on the mantra of “secular Israel hates us.” 
They repeat this regularly from the Knesset floor and in committee hearings on a daily basis. 
 
The Haredi media provides the platform for Haredi MK’s to share this message with the broader Haredi community and the Haredi broadcasters mimic this divisive tone on an hourly basis.
And, just like that, in a flash, this message has been proven to be false.  False, and terribly damaging.

The Haredi newspaper, Mishpacha, sponsored a poll to determine the attitudes of secular Israelis towards Haredim.  They hired one of Israel’s top pollsters, Mina Tzemach, to do the research. 

Here are some of the results:
1)  72% of secular Israelis believe that the Haredim do not contribute to the Jewish nature of Israel.

2)  67% believe that the IDF is obligated to provide Haredim who serve with all of their religious needs to make sure that their lifestyle is not impacted negatively by their army service.

3)  82% are willing to hire Haredim to work in their companies.

4)  93% believe that there must be dialogue between the secular and Haredim to preserve unity in Israeli society.

5)  52% feel that Haredim and secular living side by side in the same areas will lead to better relationships between these populations.

6)  77% know Haredim personally and 83% have a favorable outlook towards the Haredim who they do know.

7)  Among those who live in neighborhoods with Haredim, 77% say that the Haredim do not disturb their lives in any way.

8)  91% want to make sure that Israel preserves its Jewish identity, 89% believe that Israeli children must be familiar with Jewish tradition, and 50% feel that the education system is not doing enough to preserve these beliefs.

9)  92% have a mezuzah on their front doors.

Hatred towards Haredim?  Want Haredim to be less religious? Despise Torah and mitzvot? 

One professional poll has dispelled all these myths about secular Israel and should be a wake-up call to the entire Haredi establishment.


Rabbi Gorelik of Mishpacha writes: 
“To admit the truth, we were stunned.  If this poll is correct, we have been living all the time with a mistake.  We were sure that the average secular Israeli despised us.  Not only that, but we in the Haredi media in partnership with the Haredi politicians, spread this feeling and spoke about it over and over, all the time.  And behold, this beautiful structure falls apart.  Behold, it has become clear, that the truth is different:  Most and close to all don’t hate.  An elite minority, perhaps, hates, but this is not the lot of the majority.  The majority has no interest in us at all.  They don’t have hatred, they don’t have love, they are simply indifferent.  We are a black hole. They pass Bnei Brak and have zero curiosity to enter its streets, our kitchens, our living rooms, or our Torah institutions.
What does this say to us and about us?  Why are we not a source of inspiration?  What is flawed about us in that which we are not succeeding to spread to the greater society?  We must change approaches and the way we look at one another.  We must stop fortifying ourselves behind mistaken walls and change paths.  We must feel a sense of ‘shlichut, messengers to Israeli society….simply because this is the Jewish way:  To be a model and example.”
Music to the ears of the entire Jewish nation.
As we enter Pesach, the holiday which celebrates our redemption, and begin the Omer during which we mourn the students of Rabbi Akiva who failed to act with respect towards one another, let’s hope that the lessons learned from this poll free all Jews from mistaken beliefs and assumptions and yield the beginning of a new era of unity, tolerance, respect, and working together.

Chareidim throw stones like The Arab Intifada, and Wound 3 police,

רשע למה תכה רעיך 

Dozens of Charidim, acting like Arabs, who had nothing to do בין הזמנים, protested the arrest of  a draft dodger on Eshkol Blvd. in Yerushalayim on מוצאי שבת. The protesters were notified of the "Chillul Hashem" venue via the prohibited app "WhatsApp"

The רשעים later attempted to block the entrance to the capital near the Bridge of Strings.
Their goal was to block traffic so the good people helping their wives shop for פסח would have to sit in traffic for hours. 

Similar  protests were reported in Ashdod and at the Geha interchange on Route 4 near Bnei Brak.
In the protest at the Geha interchange , the רשעים threw stones at police injuring 3

Shaimos Trucks dump the Shaimos in Haverstraw! UPDATED FRI 4:01PM

So those nice Yeshivah boys, with the fancy glasses and white shirts and black pleated pants,who take your hard earned $25.00 per bundle, dumped the Shaimos in an abandoned lot near Monsey in the Town of Haverstraw?.

Where did these young boys learn this scam from?
From the Roshei Yeshivas that are constantly berating and putting down the "Balai Battim" who work for an honest living!

I clearly remember my Rebbes in Yeshivah telling us, "Don't think like a Baala Buus"
If you don't learn, you'll become a "Baala Buus" Chas Vesholom!

So what do you do when you need some spending money?
You come up with a scheme that a "Baala Buus" would never even think of. And I'm sure the Shaimos Boys are laughing their heads off, coming up with this harebrained idea to make an easy buck instead of working like the dumb Baalei Batim! 


“This year it [shaimos burial scams] seems to be a bigger problem than ever, and it needs to be dealt with” said Assemblyman Hikind. “Shaimos is holy and dumping it is a horror.”
Police are currently investigating who might be responsible for dumping this pile of shaimos, and have some credible leads. “In the meantime” added Hikind, “if you need to get rid of shaimos, ask the collectors many questions, and if you feel uncomfortable with them simply keep the shaimos at home until you find a reliable and trusted handler.”

Update:

One day after the discovery of dozens of black trash bags filled with shaimos at a Haverstraw commercial site near the Hudson River, police have identified the person responsible for illegally dumping the holy materials.

Rabbi Yisroel Kahan, the police liaison to Rockland County, spread word of the incident Within hours, the owner of the truck that had carried the shaimos had been identified and contacted.

The man, who had as many as five trucks operating a shaimos collection business out of Williamsburg, NY, was not arrested; he claimed to have permission from the private property’s owners in Haverstraw to dump the shaimos, however the property owners denied this. according to NY Assemblyman Dov Hikind.

Eventually, the truck owner agreed to recollect the shaimos and properly dispose of it at Beth Genizah Olam, which is run by Rabbi Yosef Schwartz.

“It’s an outrage to see honest people paying to have their shaimos cared for according to Halacha [Jewish Law] only to be exploited by dishonest people trying to make a quick dollar,” said Rabbi Kahan. “This is a serious issue, and we will continue working with Assemblyman Hikind to prevent this from happening again.”

How much money does a Kollel Guy get from Zionist Government?

How about $3,500.00!

Kollel Guy fighting with Police instead of learning

So the State of Israel, the Zionist Chilonim, support thousands upon thousands of Torah Scholars to the tune of $3,500.00 per Kollel guy! 
I am not saying that one can live on that alone, but where is the thank you? Where is the Hakoras Hatoiv? 
Where are the "Gedolim"? Did any Gadol Hador state the above fact to anyone?

How do I know these facts?
 From the following story:

A Yeshiva student in Jerusalem has been ordered by the state to pay back more than 84,000 shekels, or just over $24,000 for not maintaining his status as a full-time student of the Torah.

Tthe Ministry of Education in Israel pays Yeshiva students a yearly salary for return of their study of the Torah since they do not work. An investigation showed the student did not fulfill his full-time status and is ordered to pay back seven years’ worth of state funds.

Ynet News reports (http://bit.ly/1k8UG7Q ) that the student argued that he was a full-time student, but the state had enough of an argument to prove that the student’s studies did not equal the status required to receive the funding that he did.
