The Satmar Yiddish Weekly, DER GOY'S, report on the huge Chillul Hashem that occurred on the Mountain on Lag Be'omer is a vile blood libel on our Jewish children in uniform. The IDF had given clear instructions that the Mountain was closed because of the Hezbollah's constant targeted firing of missiles at the Har, and allowed only a few people to enter on Lag Be'omer. Because the Chareidim defied the IDF, many first responders were called to the site in case something happened, and this depleted potential vital healthcare personal that would have been needed elsewhere.
Below is a video of missiles launched at the Har on Lag Be'omer! Just so that you get an idea what was happening!
So what does DER GOY write? I am not going to translate the whole vicious antizionist tirade, but will give you the gist of their front page article!
They say that the whole thing that the area was "dangerous" was made up by the IDF for the sole reason of preventing Jews from davening at the Kever of R' Shimon ben Yochai!!!!!
Sick and perverted!
They reported that on Shabbos there were thousands of Jews on the mount, and the IDF allowed them to stay but just as Shabbos ended, the IDF asked all to leave except for those small groups such as Biala etc that were given special permission to stay.
What DER GOY doesn't tell you, is that this was pre-arranged before Shabbos that Jews would be allowed to be there for Shabbos. This actually makes a lot of sense because a few thousand is not a Hundred Thousand! A few thousand can be managed and if G-D forbid something happened it was manageable. But a Hundred Thousand cannot be managed in such a condensed place.
Just that you know many Gedoilei Hador such as Ger, Belz,and Litvishe Roshei Yeshiva etc wouldn't allow their Chassidim or Talmiddim to go to Meron when Lag Be'Omer falls on a Sunday, because of the massive Chillul Shabbas that occurs. Buses are already ready in Bnei-Brak, Yerushlayim etc on Shabbos proper. The IDF has to get ready on Shabbos for the huge crowds, so Gedoilim for years were against going up to Meron on a Sunday Lag Be'omer! In Fact they would chastise the Boyaner Rebbe for causing Chillul Shabbos!
Der Goy talks about the Chillul Shabbos by the IDF, which is ludicrous and laughable if it weren't so tragic. The ones that caused this Chillul Shabbos were none other than those Chareidim who were there for Shabbos!
What is really crazy is that DER GOY the newspaper of R' Zalman Leib was against making a Hadlaka or any celebration on Lag Be'Omer anywhere in the world. They followed the minhag of R' Yoel Teitelbaum the founder of Satmar Chassidus who basically ignored the day!
This year for the very first time he caved in and made a massive celebration on Motzei Shabbos, but still didn't make the Hadlaka!
One of the many complaints that Satmar had against celebrating Yom Hatzmoet was that Jews don't have a Mesorah of making new Yomim Toivim and of course not in the time of Sefira. This Lag Beomer Yom Tov is not mentioned in the entire Shas but is celebrated during the Sefira with music?
The Ari Hakodosh said that the mourning goes until Shevuois! They follow the Ari when it suits them!
In addition, I already posted that R' Shimon doesn't want anyone there on Lag Be'Omer. He asked for Covid so that it would be too dangerous to go, then 45 Yiddishe Neshamoes were murdered within minutes, and now he sent Arabs, but no one seems to get the message!
