Breslov Rabbonim: Distance Yourself From The Man Called Rabbi Eliezer Berland

A number of prominent Mashpi’im in the Breslov Tzibur have released a kol korei instructing chassidim to distant themselves from Rabbi Eliezer Berland, who remains imprisoned in Johannesburg awaiting extradition to Israel, for sex crimes!

Rabbi Yaakov Meir Schechter, Rabbi Shmuel Mosher Kramer and Rabbi Nosson Liebermentch signed the kol korei, speaking out against Rabbi Berland in harsh terms.

They explain Rabbi Berland errs in the essence of his derech, as well as his basic understanding and teachings of Yiddishkheit and as such, poses a true threat. The also highlight they have no connection to him and his derech whatsoever, as should be the case with all true Torah-believing Jews.

Shuvu Banim officials respond, explaining the kol korei is not at all surprising, citing the rabbonim who signed have little-to-no influence in the chassidus today and as such, the kol korei is all but meaningless. 

They explain this small bunch has always been on the outside looking in and they attack rabbonim who bring people back into the fold, such as the tzaddik from Yavniel ZT”L and mashpiah Rav Meir Brenner Shlita, “all emanating from their hate for Sephardim and baalei teshuvah…"

Monsey Here We Come ....600 more units on route 59 .... no concern for potential horrific traffic conditions

A Ramapo developer has proposed a 600-unit housing complex spread over more than three-dozen buildings off Route 59 at the site of the old Rockland Drive-In Theatre.

Joseph Brachfeld of Wesley Hills said his Town Square Residences would be a mix of rentals, condominiums and brownstones that would be part of an integrated community including pedestrian walkways and green space. Pricing for the units has not been determined.

He called the area "the gateway to Monsey" and said his proposal would create much-needed housing and improve a site that's been unused for nearly 30 years, after the drive-in went dark in 1987.

Brachfeld's firm redeveloped the former Pathmark shopping center into the Town Square next to his proposed development, which has more than 30 stores including the Evergreen supermarket.

The 23-acre parcel he is eyeing for housing is currently zoned for commercial stores. Brachfeld wants Ramapo to create a new zoning classification — transit oriented development — for his project.

He said Town Square Residences is designed to capitalize on nearby shopping, a park-and-ride lot and a proposed bus rapid transit hub that would be completed when the new Tappan Zee Bridge fully opens in 2018.

A state Department of Transportation spokeswoman confirmed there is a proposed bus rapid transit stop near the Monsey Park and Ride lot, but said details had not been finalized.

101 Muhammads Jailed by U.S. Anti-Terror Agencies Since 9/11

U.S. anti-jihad agencies have jailed or arrested 101 men since 2001 who are named for Muhammad, the reputedly final and perfect prophet of Islam, despite President Barack Obama’s insistence that Islamic “violent extremism” – and the 101 Muhammads – have nothing to do with Islam.

One hundred Muhammads are listed in two Senate documents describing 711 arrests or convictions since 2001, when Khalid Sheikh Mohammed sent Mohamed Atta and 18 others to destroy the Twin Towers.

On July 5, immigrant Mohamed Bailor Jalloh was charged with aiding terrorists, making him the 101st Muhammad. 

IDF Soldier Killed by Grenade is Son of Well-known Rabbi in Passaic and grandchild of Chernobler & Rachmistrivka Rebbes

Sergeant Shlomo Rindenow 

Rabbi Rindenow \

The brother of one of two soldiers killed in an apparent tragic accident in northern Israel today has told Arutz Sheva of his shock at the loss of his sibling, who he described as a remarkably dedicated soldier.

20-year-old Sergeant Shlomo Rindenow was killed along with 24-year-old Sergeant First Class Hussam Tapesh, when a hand grenade exploded under unclear circumstances as they traveled in a patrol jeep near the Syrian border.

The explosion occurred Sunday morning, but the news was only released for publication later in the afternoon to enable the military to alert the victims' families first.

Shlomo's brother Jeff spoke to Arutz Sheva shortly after news of the tragedy broke.

He said Shlomo, a lone soldier from New Jersey, was in fact the fifth brother in his family to travel to Israel and volunteer in an IDF combat role. One other brother is also currently serving in the army, as a paratrooper.

"It happened at 7 a.m. Israel time, and we were informed about it four hours later," Jeff told Arutz Sheva. He said that Israeli embassy officials imparted the devastating news personally to his family, and were accompanied by a local community rabbi.

Shlomo's father is also a well-known rabbi in the community.

"Our family will be flying into Israel tonight," he continued, adding that there was "no doubt" his brother would be buried in Israel. "He sacrificed for the land, he'll be buried in the land."

He described his youngest sibling as "100% dedicated" to the army.

"He lived and breathed being a soldier - he couldn't wait to get back to base," Jeff recounted.

The funeral is set for tomorrow (Monday), and details are to follow.

Attempted coup d'etat in Turkey, hundreds dead Turkish President reasserts control after military attempts coup. Purge of military underway.

Following a failed coup attempt mounted by Turkey’s military, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has reasserted his control over the country.

After the botched attempt to overthrow the government which left more than 260 dead, Erdogan has set out to purge the judiciary and military. More than 2,700 judges have been removed and nearly 3,000 soldiers arrested.

Loyalists beat Turkish coup supporter 

The Turkish military had announced late Friday night that it had taken over power from the government, declaring that a “peaceful council” had been established “in the name of democratic order.”

Army units occupied two key bridges in Istanbul, shutting down traffic in much of the city. State television and Ankara’s airport were also seized by the military in the coup attempt. Flights to and from Ankara were cancelled following the take-over. Turkish President Erdogan issued no statements in the early hours of the coup, leading to suspicions he had been taken prisoner.

Later, Erdogan spoke out, condemning the attempted coup and placing blame on an Islamic cleric living in exile in the United States, Fethullah Gulen.

“You have engaged in enough treason against this nation,” Erdogan said in a statement. “If you dare, come back to your country.”

On Saturday, Prime Minister Binali Yildirim announced that the death toll had risen to 265, with 1,440 people wounded.

Turkish Military Says It Has Taken Over Country......FALL OF ISLAMIST GOVT... ????

The Turkish military claims to have seized control of the country amid reports of tanks and army jets in Istanbul and Ankara.

An announcer on Turkey's state broadcaster TRT has read out a live statement, reportedly on the orders of the military, saying the country is now being run by a "peace council".

It comes after the NTV broadcaster quoted the army as saying: "Power in the country has been seized in its entirety." 

The Turkish Prime Minister Binali Yildirim has confirmed that military action is taking place, describing it as an illegal "attempt" by a faction of the army to seize power.

A Turkish state news agency is reporting that a top general is among several people being "held hostage" at the military headquarters in Ankara.

It follows media reports that ambulances have been seen in front of the building.

NTV is showing footage of tanks at the entrance to Istanbul's Ataturk airport.

It is reported that all flights have been cancelled in and out of the airport.

Military vehicles are said to be blocking two bridges in Istanbul, while military jets have been heard flying over the Turkish capital, Ankara. 

According to Turkish media, the military statement said the army had taken action to: "reinstall the constitutional order, democracy, human rights and freedoms, to ensure that the rule of law once again reigns in the country, for the law and order to be reinstated."

The military statement went on to say that "all international agreements and commitments will remain. We pledge that good relations with all world countries will continue."

Mr Yildirim has called for calm, saying security forces are doing what is necessary to resolve the situation.

He warned that those responsible for this "illegal attempt " will pay the "highest price."

 

Mizrachi says no reason to pity Autistic, Down Syndrome Children since they sinned in a previous life

This lunatic, talks with confidence as if he spoke to G-D himself! There is absolutely no source to his idiotic comments in the entire Torah, Shas & poiskim! 

Some may say that this may be kabbalistic .... and that the Zohar HaKodish writes about it, however, the Rambam does not agree at all about the concept of Gillgulim or re-incarnation ....

However to talk publicly to parents or siblings of Autistic or Down Syndrome children and tell them that their children were evil in a previous gillgul ..... is cruel and sadistic!
There is no hell hot enough for this meshiginar!
