"How much longer is Skver going to be a snare for us and our children?"
We have been posting about the atrocities that Skver has deliberately perpetuated at their neighbors to make sure that the areas around New Skver are "Judenrein" since 2017!
Way back in 2014, The New Square Bais Din begged Jews Not to buy houses within 1 mile of New Square to keep the "Shtetel" holy, apparently Jews that don't belong to Skver will contaminate their "Uganda Shtetel"
The Bais Din wrote then in a Kol Korah, that "if the surrounding Jewish communities were to spread even further towards New Square , to the point of reaching the parameters of New Square, the "blurring of our borders would defeat the founding purpose of the shtetl."
The problem is that as Monsey grows the price of housing goes up as well, so young couples are constantly looking for new areas for affordable housing! The area immediately bordering New Square has become an area where young families starting moving to, to establish a vibrant Frum community where housing was still affordable!
But the Skverer Rebber issued a "Fatwa" and instituted a one-mile perimeter around his Shtetel to keep Jews out but Goyim in!! Just like in Gaza!
To make sure every Jew in the world keeps in line and doesn't move into the neighboring areas, Skver starting buying homes from Goyim, not to live in them, chas ve'sholom, but to rent them out to Latinos!
But not stam "Latinos" they stuff multiple Latino families into homes zoned for one-family dwellings! On Shabbos they play loud music and their wives and daughters come out barely dressed to party, making it impossible for the Frum Families to let their children outside on Shabbos!
The community has now organized to fight this disgusting Skver initiative, but are first attempting to do this in a nice way!
What is really interesting is that Skver is building a multi-million $ Bais Medrish and started a campaign to "schnoor" from the entire Frum World, the Community is asking every single Jew with a heart not to give them one cent until they can come to a mutual agreement!

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Rockland Communities Call for Transparency and Fairness in Housing Practices
Rockland County, NY – A coalition of thriving frum communities near New Square is raising serious concerns about the housing acquisition tactics employed by the New Square kehilla. In an open letter to donors of Shekel Hakodesh, the Ichud Kehillos of Rockland is urging financial supporters to withhold funds from New Square’s institutions until these aggressive housing practices are halted.
According to the letter, New Square’s leadership has been systematically purchasing homes in nearby neighborhoods and overcrowding them with unseemly tenants. The goal, the coalition alleges, is to intimidate existing residents and force them out in an effort to maintain New Square’s isolation from other Jewish communities.
“This is a Chilul Hashem, contrary to Halacha, and the opposite of Darchei Shalom. All we want is to live in peace,” the letter states. “We have not bothered a single member of their community, yet we are being harassed.”
The Ichud Kehillos of Rockland emphasize that their intent is not to harm the New Square community but to ensure fair housing practices that align with both civil law and Halacha. They highlight that an estimated $50 million has been tied up in these controversial real estate transactions—funds they argue could be put to far better use.
As a result, the coalition is calling on donors to demand a written commitment from New Square’s leadership that homes will no longer be purchased with the intent of keeping frum Jews out of certain neighborhoods, nor will properties be bought or rented in violation of legal standards.
“We respectfully ask you to take action on our behalf and stand up for what’s right,” the letter concludes.
