How The Eidah Hachreidis Tried to Feed Chareidim Treif: The Brakel Chicken

What? What kind of headline is this? 
Eida Hachreidis? Feeding Jews .... trief????
Absolutely!!!
Brakel Chicken

The Eida Hachreidis in Yerushalyim and the Hisachdis Ha'Ganovim in Williamsburg managed in one decade to entirely change the entire perspective of kashrus in the entire Heimishe Jewish world with their false propaganda. 

They managed  to convince the Chareidie communities that only "Heimishe" Hashgachos are reliable and that the OU in the USA and the Rabbanut in Israel are "chazer trief."

It's true that the Rabbanut needs a lot of work, but after reading this post, you will find that the Rabbanut is far more reliable than the Eidah..... in fact all kashrus scandals emanating from the US and most from Israel are only from so called "heimishe" hashgachos.
The big "chicken" scandal in Monsey was from a very "reliable" hashgacha!

Background:
I was waiting to post about the Brakel Chicken, until I got the total picture from all sides of this controversy. 

So here goes...

The Eidah Hachreidis is a money grubbing machine that needs millions of shekels to oil their greasy wheels.... and so they came up with a great plan .......

They (the Eidah Hachreidis mafia) convinced Rav Shmuel Wosner z"l, and Rav Nissim Karalitz, that there is reason to be concerned that commercially-farmed chicken might not have a "Mesorah" of kashrus!

And so the Eida Mafia got them to rule, not that the chicken that we ate for years is trief ....... no ....that would put the entire Orthodox community into a head-spin that they could never possibly recover, but that there is "CONCERN" that our chicken may not have a "Mesorah!"

They couldn't actually come up with a "treif" psak because nobody would ever believe any Gadols' psak ever again .... since our chicken have "heimishe" hashgachois" ..how could it be "trief?"!!!

The reason the Rabbis gave for the "concern," was due to the "prevalence of hybridization in the chicken industry. 
Nobody knows what that means!

So now that they planted a doubt in the minds of gullible Rabbis, the crooks, the financial directors of the Eidah  established the "taharas ha'ofos (bird purity) committee... " to publicize that our chickens have no "Mesorah" and recruited the chasidishe Baal tzedakah, R' Berel Weiss to fund this new initiative. 

But before this new committee could declare our chicken trief, they had to conduct a search for a "pure unadulterated chicken." Meanwhile, they reasoned, let the Oilim Golim eat "treif."

It wasn't long before they found a chicken that had never been subject to any "hybridization." 

I think that Mr. Perdue z"l is rolling in his grave, because he claimed on the tumidike TV that his chickens were pure and not "a hybrid."

THE BRAKEL.....

Let's stop here for a moment to contemplate what happened until I go further....
If our chicken isn't in our "Mesorah" ..... why wasn't it so declared publicly? What does the "psak" ... "concern" exactly mean? Is it kosher or not? 

Lets Go back to The Brakel ..... The Brakel is a chicken that Belgium farmers use for the eggs only, they throw the meat away .... why? because The Brakel tastes like a cross between horse manure and human vomit!

But the Eidah saw $$$$$$$$$$ signs and could care less how it tastes ....they were going to come out with a "psak" that our chicken is not our Mesorah and the foul tasting Brakel is our Mesorah, even though no body ever heard of it ....

They got Chassiddishe investors to pour untold millions of dollars into this new "lucrative" business, and started the process to farm these crappy tasting chickens.....

To back their new money making enterprise they went to the Bnei Brak Beis Din, headed by Rav Moshe Shaul Klein and presented their case ..... Rav Klein managed to scrape together some antique old senile Shochtim from nursing homes, and they managed to babble  that they had in fact slaughtered these birds before...

There was one big huge problem ..........their very own Rabbi, the Raavad of the Eidah Hachareidis, Rav Moshe Sternbuch, took one look at the bird, the Brakel, and said that "its trief," and added, he doubts that the Brakel is a chicken at all. 
Rav Sternbuch went further and said that any shochet who slaughters a Brakel should be disqualified from shechting ever again.

They panicked, short of killing  Rav Sternbuch, what do they do? ....Millions of dollars were invested, with assurances to the wealthy Chassidim that they would get this vomit tasting chicken approved as the only "Mesorah" chicken.

And to add to their chagrin, the Rabbi of the Bnei Brak Beis Din, Rav Moshe Shaul Klein's rebbe is the Vizhniter Rebbe who outlawed the Brakel!

One Rav of Bnei Brak took the initiative to get to the bottom of this controversy..... Rav Moshe Yehuda Leib Landa, went to the Brakel farm in Beit Shemesh and surprised the farmers but they  wouldn't let him in to inspect the farm .... they finally gave in .... and after a significant amount of time, Rav Landa came out with an unequivocal decision: 
The Brakel is trief; it has no connection with any birds that Jews have ever eaten in the past.

Then came the "Makkah Be'Patish" so to speak, a talmud of Rav Wosner z"l, (the posek who put a doubt on the Mesorah of our chickens,) Rav Avraham Rubin instructed all the slaughterhouses and shochtim under his hashgacha (Badatz Mehadrin) that if a Brakel was ever shechted, even if only accidentally, the entire facility and all utensils would need to be kashered.

And so the Eidah Hachreidis ran around like poisoned rats to shop for a prominent Rav that would put a kashrus stamp on this foul tasting Brakel, having had so much money invested in this fiasco.
They found a Rav in New York, R' Zalmon Leib Teitelbaum, Satmar Rebbe of Williamsburg, who is associated with the Hisachdas Ha' Ganovim, and he came out with the following statement ... that was signed by his Dayan Rav Moshe Shaul Klein and Rav Moshe Zev Zarger..
"We maintain our earlier opinion that the Brakel that was brought to us and examined is even more tahor than other birds, and may be eaten and enjoyed l'mhadrin min hamehadrin" 
Rav Zarger added "When I saw the chickens called Brakel, I immediately recognized them as the birds I saw as a Child.""""

I don't know about you guys but I had a very hard time to get my little children to eat our chickens ..... I wish Rav Klein and Rav Zarger good luck trying to feed a chicken that tastes like road kill to  their grand children.

Meanwhile, after the R' Zalman Leib's ruling that chicken that tastes like vomit is kosher "l'mhadrin min hamehadrin"
his brother, R' Aaron Teitelbaum, Samar Rebbe Monroe, came out with a two-page ruling that the Brakel is "Chazir Treif....

Now the ruling of R' Aron is very important, since he has the largest Chareidi slaughterhouse for chickens in the New York area which is situated in Kiryas Yoel, where about 60,000 chickens are slaughtered every day. 

And so last week, our friend R' Berel Weiss, who funded this disastrous Eidah Hachreidi shenanigan to feed Treif Birds to Chareidim, informed the Eidah that he has decided to close the Brakel poultry farms despite the fact that he would suffer a great financial loss.

Pass the buffalo wings .....











The Faces of 3 Teenagers that Murdered a Jew

Left to right: Jace Swinton, 18, Summer Church, 16, and Roberto Ortiz, 18, were arrested Friday for the July murder of Aaron Rajman in Boca Raton, Fla.

A 16 year old high school student is one of three teenagers who were taken into custody and charged in the death of an Orthodox Jewish mixed martial arts fighter.

The Palm Beach Post (http://pbpo.st/2vBCj9K)reported that Summer Church was being driven to school by her mother on Friday morning when she was arrested by the Palm Beach County Sherriff’s Office in the July 3rd death of Aaron Rajman.


the 25 year old was shot in his West Boca Raton home after an argument with several unidentified men.

Also arrested on Friday were 18 year old Jace Swinton of Margate and 18 year old Roberto Ortiz of Boynton Beach who had been previously arrested in January for allegedly pointing a gun at a 16 year old, kicking a second person and firing a gun at a third individual.  
Church, Swinton and Ortiz were charged with two counts each of home invasion with a firearm or other deadly weapon. 
According to Church’s mother Judith, her daughter had been dating Swinton when she first met Rajman at a Boca Raton convenience store in January. Swinton and Rajman also became acquainted, with Swinton visiting Rajman at his home. 
Judith Church said that on the day of Rajman’s death, her daughter was in Ortiz’s car with a female friend and was forced at gunpoint by Oritz and three other men to call Rajman and see if he was at home.  After the phone call to Rajman was placed, the two girls were reportedly let out of the car before the remaining occupants traveled to Rajman’s home, according to Church.

Initial reports from the Palm Beach County Sherriff’s office said only that several men were present in Rajman’s home at the time of his death, according to the Palm Beach Post (http://pbpo.st/2vBTVT1).
Summer Church, an eleventh grader at Olympic Heights High School, is being charged as an adult in Rajman’s murder.  Church’s mother said that she is mystified that her daughter, who spoke with detectives for 12 hours over a period of three days, is being held accountable for Rajman’s death.
“She wasn’t there,” said Judith Church. “To charge her with first degree murder doesn’t make sense.”
A statement released by Dave Aronberg, a state attorney for Palm Beach County, said that Rajman had been deliberately targeted by all three defendants.  
Emily Imber, who had been in a five year relationship with Rajman, said that she was happy to see charges being brought in the case.
“I am grateful they were caught,” said Imber. “I hope they get all of them.”
Rajman, who wore his yarmulka into the ring before a fight, had made a name for himself in the MMA world by upholding his religious principles, refusing to fight on Saturdays, a prime day in the fighting world and earning the respect of promoters who reportedly went out of their way to accommodate him.  
According to a GoFundMe campaign setup in his memory, Rajman had hoped to launch an initiative this fall in conjunction with local law enforcement and security professionals that would give teens a dose of Jewish pride and self confidence. 
The StreetSmart Program, which is being unveiled in Rajman’s memory, will teach teens in schools, community centers and synagogues how to defend themselves in real life situations using a combination of self defense skills, common sense and situational awareness.

MEET THE ‘VOGUE’ WRITER WHO CRITICIZED FLOTUS’S SHOES


A bone-chilling digital howl rippled across the Internet as the powder-faced Gargantua calling itself Lynn Yaeger lurched over to the keyboard to unleash hellfire on the First Lady. 

“Oh, Melania,” Lynn Yaeger curdled. “In the words of the late, great Lou Reed, you ‘couldn’t hit it sideways,'” after accusing the White House of failing to “understand optics.”

The brute in a red wig-like cap, black lipstick, and frayed, tattered rags seized on footage of the graceful First Lady as she boarded Air Force One for a visit to flood-ravaged Texas.
“This morning, Mrs. Trump boarded Air Force One wearing a pair of towering pointy-toed snakeskin heels better suited to a shopping afternoon on Madison Avenue or a girls’ luncheon at La Grenouille,” Lynn Yaeger–who hails from a beneath-the-floorboards, cannibalistic tribe of journalists known as Contributing Fashion Editors at Vogue– howled.

In her article Lynn Yaeger remained untethered when told by a spokesperson that Lady Melania had a change of shoes awaiting her on the plane. When Mrs. Trump did de-plane in Texas she was photographed wearing sensible sneakers.

“But what kind of message does a fly-in visit from a First Lady in sky-high stilettos send to those suffering the enormous hardship, the devastation of this natural disaster?” the beast grumbled, leaving many to suspect had she not been turned down at the high school prom by the hideous fish-God Dagon her career might have turned out different.
According to Internet lore, the immortal spent 20 years writing for the now-collapsing weekly The Village Voice before joining Vogue. She is suspected to have the ability to cast spells over other cretins who stalk the pages of fashion magazines, as evidenced in a 2016 New York Times Style Section profile titled “Lynn Yaeger: Fashion Muse.”

“Sing, muse, of crinolines piled in layers, of blunt-cut bobs and Cupid’s bow lips?” the paper wrote to the tune of Pan’s flute.
“Inspirations come in many forms during the fashion collections. It has been a surprise, though not an unwelcome one, to find that this season, an unexpected one joins their ranks: the fabulously eccentric fashion writer Lynn Yaeger.”

Malka Lebowitz - Einhorn's Body Found

The Westchester County Police Marine Unit responded and recovered the body from the river, O'Leary said.
The remains were transported to Riverfront Green Park in Peekskill and turned over to the Westchester Medical Examiner’s Office, he added.
Her death has been ruled a suicide by the Medical Examiner’s Office, O'Leary said.

Ukrainian authorities prepare for record 40,000 Jews in Uman

Ukrainian authorities are preparing for a record pilgrimage by tens of thousands of Jews gathering in the city of Uman for Rosh Hashanah.

Authorities are expecting up to 40,000 Jewish pilgrims ahead of the Jewish New Year, which this year falls on Sept. 20, the Ukrainian Government Press office told the ZN news website Tuesday.

In previous years, local authorities estimated that the annual pilgrimage brought 25,000 to 30,000 visitors to Uman — followers of Rabbi Nachman of Breslov, an 18th-century luminary whose gravesite is the focal point of the celebration. Rescue forces are carrying out exercises at the main congregation points of the visitors to be able to respond effectively to any emergency, the Unian news agency reported Tuesday.

Authorities in Ukraine have improved access to Uman in recent years, with plans underway for reopening a disused military airport near the city for direct flights. Uman is located in central Ukraine, 150 miles south of Kiev and 200 miles south of Odessa.

The synagogue is part of the Ohel complex built near the gravesite of Rabbi Nachman of Breslov.

Having a beard reduces your risk of cancer


According to a recent study from the University of Queensland, facial fuzz can protect a man’s face from 90 to 95% of harmful UV rays from the sun.
This means that a large portion of a man’s face is protected from being sunburnt – which can help prevent skin cancer.
Dr Adam Freidmann told the Independent: “Sun exposure is the primary cause of photo-ageing and skin damage, so it makes sense that if your face is covered by a heavy beard, it may well protect your skin from the signs of ageing.
“This means fewer wrinkles and a reduction in age spots (liver spots) commonly found on the face.
“People with a thick head of hair do not tend to get skin cancer or photo ageing on the scalp until they lose their hair. So we can see that there is a UV protective effect.”
However, these findings are only applicable to men who have a full beard – patchy stubble doesn’t count.
