“kauft nicht bei Juden” (Do not buy from Jews) EU Sanctions Israel while removing Sanctions from Iran

by Giulio Meotti

Will Europe put a Yellow Star on Israeli Products?

Why not finish the job and use that handy yellow star instead of labels?

The European Union has just agreed to remove the sanctions from Iran’s anti-Semitic regime and put them on the Jewish State of Israel.

In the very same week that the EU Court of Justice based in Luxembourg relaxed the sanctions against Iran's main aluminum manufacture company (Iralco), the very same EU imposed its first sanction against Israel.

It consists of the marking of products from Jewish communities in Judea and Samaria, to become effective from next month. Goods -- fruit, vegetables, cosmetics, textiles and toys -- worth €220 million -  are exported to the EU from “settlements” each year.

The “settlement products” are labeled by Europe not only because these are political symbols, but also because it knows that businesses in Judea and Samaria are a very important part of the Israeli economy with companies such as Oppenheimer, Super Class and Shamir Salads, Golan Heights Dairies , Ahava, Hlavin, Beitili and Barkan Brackets.

The European blacklist not only violates international free trade, it is an obstacle to Mideast coexistence and constitutes the revival of Judeophobic racism.

Europe really just wants to inflict pain on Israel’s economy. One example? More than 80% of dates from the Jordan valley are grown for export, mainly to France, Switzerland, the Netherlands and Scandinavian countries. Label these and Israel may lose that market. And it is already happening.

In Norway, two of the main importers of vegetables, Bama and Coop, have agreements with suppliers in Israel stating that fruits and vegetables produced in Judea and Samaria shall not be supplied to them. 

It is happening everywhere in the old continent.

The initiative has been advocated in a letter signed by 16 European foreign ministers - including my disgraced Italian minister – and has been voted in by a large majority at the European Parliament.

It is the first time since Hitler’s Germany that a specific stigma is put on manufactures and agricultural products of the Jewish people.

The European Council on Foreign Relations, a think tank whose daily proposals arrive on the table of European legislators, also suggested sanctioning some Israeli banks. Israeli degrees from Ariel University in Samaria will also be targeted by the European Union.

Israel can avoid tourism in distant and cold Iceland, after its capital Reykiavik approved and then retracted a boycott of all Israeli products. But Israel cannot afford a boycott of Europe. That’s why Israel and its friends must respond to this anti-Semitic policy.

It seems in fact that Hitler’s call “kauft nicht bei Juden” (Do not buy from Jews) has resurfaced in the timid Europe. We have only one answer to this anti-Semitic policy: purposely buying the Israeli products produced in Judea and Samaria.

Before Europe again places a yellow star on Jewish products. 

Pope Francis forgot to mention "G-D" in the entire address to congress!

Pope Francis speaking before Congress this morning did something highly unusual for a 
“man of G-d”,
 He didn’t open up in prayer and he did not invoke G-d in any way, shape or form. 
Instead, he jumped right into preaching the Laodicean gospel of social justice.  Wow. 

Pope Francis made a fogged reference to the Catholic church priest sex scandals, and spent nearly 23 seconds talking about it. 

He said there should be “hope, forgiveness and rehabilitation” for the gay pedophile bishops who committed decades of vile sex crimes. 

He said NOTHING to the victims and their families. Not one word. 

The message the Pope sent is that the Catholic church has no desire to do one bit more than the law will force them to do.

  Shameful and disgusting.Francis talks incessantly about “healing the world”, and he won’t even help to heal the victims that his own church created. 

Francis again invoked the memories of Abraham Lincoln and Martin Luther King, Jr. in an ongoing bid to call America to social justice. Still no references to G-d, the 4 Iranian hostages with one of them being a Christian pastor? 

Not a word. I guess they don’t count. 

He then closed his “sermon” by saying “G-d bless America”. Finally, the “vicar of Christ” mentioned G-d. Ugh.

America, behold your False Prophet. Please step up and take the Mark.

Pope Exits Giant Airbus and Gets Into Tiny Symbolic Car

REPENT! Says The Holy SEE!
This holy "anuv" got out of this gigantic  airbus and squeezed into a tiny Fiat ....?
The gas usage alone of bringing the "poor man's" pope here was approx $60,000.00 not counting surcharges etc!
Meanwhile he has a bunch of gas guzzling SUVs in back and in front of his tiny car!
So what is his message?
Help the poor!
Why doesn't he open the coffers of the Vatican that contain trillions and hand it out to the poor? That would be a great start!

He’s also the head of state of the Vatican, which as a government has possibly the most restrictive immigration and citizenship policies of any nation in the world.

The pope, traveling to the U.S. for the first time, has made a special appeal to Americans to welcome immigrants, using his address to a joint meeting of Congress Thursday to invoke the Golden Rule in demanding generosity toward the millions of Central and South Americans seeking to come to the country.

The Vatican  for its part, welcomes millions of visitors a year — but allows only a very select few, who meet strict criteria, to be admitted as residents or citizens.

Only about 450 of its 800 or so residents actually hold citizenship, according to a 2012 study by the Library of Congress. That study said citizens are either church cardinals who reside in the Vatican, the Holy See’s diplomats around the world, and those who have to reside in the city because of their jobs, such as the Swiss Guard.

Spouses and children who live in the city because of their relationship with citizens — including the Swiss Guard and workers such as the gardener — can also be granted citizenship. But that means few of the Vatican’s citizens are women.

A Vatican spokesman did not return an email seeking comment on its policy.

"Gmar Tov!" 800 Muslims dead as they make "Oleh Regel" to Mecca!

At least 780 people were killed and  805 injured in a stampede Thursday on the outskirts of Mecca, the deadliest tragedy to strike the annual hajj pilgrimage in more than two decades.

Thursday’s crush happened in Mina, a large valley about five kilometers (three miles) from the holy city of Mecca that has been the site of hajj stampedes in years past.

Mina is where pilgrims carry out a symbolic stoning of the devil by throwing pebbles against three stone columns. It also houses more than 160,000 tents where pilgrims spend the night during the pilgrimage.

The stampede occurred in a morning surge of pilgrims at the intersection of streets 204 and 223 as the faithful were making their way toward a large structure overlooking the columns, according to the Saudi civil defense directorate.

The multi-story structure, known as Jamarat Bridge, is designed to ease the pressure of the crowds and prevent pilgrims from being trampled.

The civil defense directorate, which provided the death toll, said at least 805 other pilgrims were injured in the stampede.

Ambulance sirens blared as rescue crews rushed the injured to nearby hospitals.

More than 220 rescue vehicles and some 4,000 members of the emergency services were deployed soon after the stampede to try to ease the congestion and provide alternative exit routes, according to the directorate.

Amateur video shared on social media showed a horrific scene, with scores of bodies — the men dressed in the simple terry cloth garments worn during hajj — lying amid crushed wheelchairs and water bottles along a sunbaked street.

Survivors assessed the scene from the top of roadside stalls near white tents as rescue workers in orange and yellow vests combed the area.

Photos released by the directorate on its official Twitter account showed rescue workers helping the wounded onto stretchers and loading them onto ambulances near some of the tents.

Some 2 million people are taking part in this year’s hajj pilgrimage, which is an obligation of every able-bodied Muslim. The pilgrimage began in earnest Tuesday.

Saudi authorities take extensive precautions to ensure the security of the hajj and the safety of pilgrims.

There are about 100,000 security forces deployed this year to oversee crowd management and ensure pilgrims’ safety during the five-day pilgrimage.

At Mina specifically, authorities have put measures in place over the years to try to alleviate the pressure posed by masses of pilgrims converging on the site of the stoning ritual.

Officials use surveillance cameras and other equipment to limit the number of people converging on the site, and the Jamarat Bridge has multiple exits to facilitate the flow of people.

But tragedies are not uncommon.

The death toll from Thursday’s stampede far exceeded that of a similar incident in 2006, near the site of the latest incident, when more than 360 pilgrims were killed in a stampede. Another stampede at Mina in 2004 left 244 pilgrims dead and hundreds injured.

Frum Dogs will Fast this Yom Kippur!

On just about every day of the year, Shadow and Custer enjoy a hearty diet of kibbles and the occasional leftover piece of challah or gefilte fish.

But come Yom Kippur Tuesday evening, these dogs — Shadow’s a 16-pound poodle, Custer, a 26-pound schnauzer — follow the lead of their owner, Cheryl Degani: They fast.

“It was my idea,” says Degani, a 59-year-old accountant from suburban New City and mother of two adult children.

Growing up in the Rockland County town of Hillcrest, she was always a little more zealous than everyone around her, she says, and began fasting on the Day of Atonement even before her bat mitzvah, at age 12.

“People say, ‘Are you kidding me? Are you for real?’ ” she says of her decision to have her dogs observe the holiday with her. “I say: I have to fast, they have to fast.”

Those concerned about whether fasting affects her pets’ health can bark off, Degani says.

“I can leave my dogs food all day long, but if I’m not there, they’re not eating it,” says Degani, who nevertheless makes sure her pups’ water bowls are never empty. “Dogs are social — a dog doesn’t want to eat until I get home and I’m there.”

It’s kosher with the experts, too.

“If you have an otherwise healthy dog, then it’s probably not a huge deal,” says Dr. Danielle Palatt, of Brooklyn’s Vinegar Hill Veterinary Group. “Missing two meals isn’t necessarily a health risk for a healthy animal — even if they don’t understand what’s going on.”

But they do understand, insists Degani, whose dogs are fluent in fasting. They know the drill for many Jewish holidays, she says, and believes they definitely smell something in the air just before Yom Kippur.

“I think they have a Jewish essence,” she says. “There’s no doubt about it.”

They may not have been bark mitzvahed, she adds, but they feel religion down to their Milk Bones: “They know a lot. They know something [is going on]” on the big day.

Yom Kippur

Suzanne Chava Gruer Missing ...disappeared in Flatbush!

Police are asking for the public’s help in the search for a missing Brooklyn woman. 

Officials say 45-year-old Suzanne Gruer was last seen Aug. 31 at her home on Kings Highway in Midwood.

She wears a reddish-blonde wig, has blue eyes and has fair skin with freckles. She is 45 years old. She lived at 2410 Kings Highway.

Gruer stands at about 4 feet 11 inches tall and weighs 150 pounds.

Police are asking anyone with information on her whereabouts to call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-577-TIPS.

Yeshiva Bochrum riot like Shvartzas in Geulah!

Bochrim have a lot of time on their hands now, because of Bein Hazmanim, so they want to show the Arabs how to really riot!
All the Torah that they learned this zman means absolutely nothing!
At this time no one even knows why they are rioting!
So the Arabs and the Bochrim got together to undermine the Police Force! Very nice!

My Yom Kippur Lesson From My New Hasidic Neighbors

By Jonathan Leener

As a rabbinical student, going to synagogue rarely produces feelings of anxiety or fear. With time, even giving the dvar torah or facilitating parts of the service become habitual. While living on the Upper West Side of Manhattan for years, I also became spoiled by the dozens of synagogues that met both my religious and cultural demands. The options were so vast that I could customize my own shul schedule every Shabbat. This synagogue with its rocking Friday night davening and the other synagogue Shabbat morning with its hot kiddush.

This all changed a couple of weeks ago when my wife and I moved to Williamsburg, the epicenter of Hipsters and Hasidim. A quick “Google search” revealed that our synagogue going would be rather different in the new neighborhood. Williamsburg certainly has no shortage of synagogues. In parts, it even resembles Jerusalem’s ultra-Orthodox Mea Shearim neighborhood with a shul on every street corner. The only challenge…I’m not Hasidic nor do I own a shtreimal or bekishe. Although my hair is long enough to make payot , I would still look more like a Beatle than a Hasid. There was no way to disguise myself. How would I ever fit in?

I woke up Shabbat morning and for the first time since my Bar Mitzvah I was terrified about going to shul! I was scared that they would judge me and challenge my Jewishness. I was certain I would be made uncomfortable. After all, it seemed like every week I had read another horror story regarding their community and their insularity. Why would they make an exception for me?

My wife finally convinced me to give it a try, so I found my white shirt and black pants and headed out. I had no real plan, I did not know anyone or know of a specific shul. I figured I would walk into south Williamsburg and see what happens. After only a couple of minutes I ran into a Hasid. He seemed like he was in a hurry to get to davening, but at the time he seemed like my best chance of actually finding somewhere to go.

“Follow me” he said in a broken English. We walked together for a couple of blocks in silence. When we arrived at a rather run down building he pointed to the basement. “Are you sure this is it?” I said to him. He nodded his head and walked away. This was not the synagogues of the suburbs that I had grown up with. It was literally a hole in the wall.

As I walked down the stairs, the little children dressed in their Shabbos finest looked at me as if I had come from another world. I slowly opened the door and saw a couple of men sitting and learning with their children. “Is it okay if I come in?” I said to a man by the door. “Can you come in? Of course! What kind of question is that?!” he responded in his heavy Yiddish accent. He was almost insulted by the question itself.

“A Yid is a Yid,” he assured me.

He quickly made me a cup of coffee and we schmoozed about how I was going to become a rabbi. He was delighted and excited for my work ahead.

As the other Hasidim came in for morning prayers, they all came up to me and introduced themselves and greeted me with a smile. One of them ran to get me a tallit and another went to bring me a siddur and a chumash. They made sure I liked my seat and was comfortable. As the service began, I felt transported in time. The beautiful melodies and the rhythmic swaying or shucking was completely memorizing. I had a feeling that my ancestors davened in a shul like this back in Poland.

When the Torah came out the gabbai approached me and asked for my Hebrew name. I was shocked. On the Upper West Side I had been to several synagogues for years and never honored with an aliyah, but there I was in this small shtiebel in Williamsburg getting called up to the Torah on my very first visit. They even called me, “HaRav Channan David”. They redefined for me what Jewish Hospitality — hachnasat orchim — should look and feel like. With small and intentional gestures, the great divide between us seemed insignificant.

With the conclusion of the service, they invited me to stay for kiddish. Cholent, whiskey, and kugel was on full display. The conversation was rich and diverse as we discussed the Iran deal, inter-marriage, Israel, Donald Trump, the rabbinate, Carlebach niggunim, and much more. They made me promise I would come back again (they even recruited me for their daily minyan) as we sat around the tables that they had pushed together.

When I finally left, I was truly overwhelmed by the experience and their generosity. I also felt so guilty for unfairly judging them, assuming they would be closed and uninviting. With Yom Kippur only days away, how can I ask God to judge me with compassion when I cannot even do the same for my fellow Jew? My new neighbors reminded me of the oldest Hasidic wisdom, as the Baal Shem Tov taught, “Be careful when you pass judgement on another. It is really yourself whom you may be judging.”

Muslim kid's clock was a Hoax , and his father is a Muslim activist

Muslim kid Ahmed’s clock is a fraud, deceptions abound

The Muzzy kid, Ahmed Mohamed, a student from MacArthur High School, who greeted reporters with “as-salaamu alaykum,” the Muslim greeting of peace , was likely goaded by his terrorist Sudanese father Mohamed ElHassan Mohamed who defended the Koran, the Islamic death rape cult’s manifesto, as its defense attorney in a mock trial at a Florida church that, to his dismay and everyone else’s joy, ended with the Koran’s burning.

Also in 2011, ElHassan debated Robert Spencer on the question of “Does Islam Respect Human Rights?” Clearly, he was trying to score a victory against a famous “Islamophobe” and thus win a name for himself. 

ElHassan has been looking for publicity and chances to fight against “Islamophobia” for a considerable period. Now he has seized it if not actually created it, going so far as to claim his son was “tortured” by school and law enforcement officials.

The papa Muzzy weasel Mohamed Senior likely had his son Mohamed Junior provoked the situation by intentionally bringing into his class a clock resembling a timed bomb and then refused to cooperate with the police and teachers.

Clock vs Bomb, NOT easy to tell apart!

“If you see something, say something” no longer works if the subject is a Muslim, because the person reporting the suspicious activities or suspicious objects will be called a racist or an Islamophobe. 

For destroying this simple principle of self-protection, Muzzy Junior becomes a media star. Hellbent on political correctness, Muslim appeasement, and opportunistically catching the media waves, Facebook, Google, Twitter, Box, Autodesk, and a few NASA employees with Muzzy names also reached out to meet with Muzzy Junior, after a journalist shared the photo of Muzzy Junior wearing a shirt with their logo, all stepped over themselves, head over heels, just to get some attention. Not to be outdone, failed-emailed Hilary Clinton joined the circus, and the Muslim-In-Chief invited him to the White House.

According to a real engineer, Ahmed didn’t build any clock he just took some parts of an existing clock from 1970 and placed it in pencil case.

This is what he wrote on his blog:

I found the highest resolution photograph of the clock I could. Instantly, I was disappointed. Somewhere in all of this – there has indeed been a hoax. Ahmed Mohamed didn’t invent his own alarm clock. He didn’t even build a clock. Now, before I go on and get accused of attacking a 14 year old kid who’s already been through enough, let me explain my purpose. I don’t want to just dissect the clock. I want to dissect our reaction as a society to the situation. Part of that is the knee-jerk responses we’re all so quick to make without facts. So, before you scroll down and leave me angry comments, please continue to the end (or not – prove my point, and miss the point, entirely!)

For starters, one glance at the printed circuit board in the photo, and I knew we were looking at mid-to-late 1970s vintage electronics. Surely you’ve seen a modern circuit board, with metallic traces leading all over to the various components like an electronic spider’s web. You’ll notice right away the highly accurate spacing, straightness of the lines, consistency of the patterns. That’s because we design things on computers nowadays, and computers assist in routing these lines. Take a look at the board in Ahmed’s clock. It almost looks hand-drawn, right? That’s because it probably was. Computer aided design was in its infancy in the 70s. This is how simple, low cost items (like an alarm clock) were designed. Today, even a budding beginner is going to get some computer aided assistance – in fact they’ll probably start there, learning by simulating designs before building them. You can even simulate or lay out a board with free apps on your phone or tablet. A modern hobbyist usually wouldn’t be bothered with the outdated design techniques. There’s also silk screening on the board. An “M” logo, “C-94” (probably, a part number – C might even stand for “clock”), and what looks like an American flag. More about that in a minute. Point for now being, a hobbyist wouldn’t silk screen logos and part numbers on their home made creation. It’s pretty safe to say already we’re looking at ’70s tech, mass produced in a factory.

So I turned to eBay, searching for vintage alarm clocks. It only took a minute to locate Ahmed’s clock. See this eBay listing, up at the time of this writing. Amhed’s clock was invented, and built, by Micronta, a Radio Shack subsidary. Catalog number 63 756.

The shape and design is a dead give away. The large screen. The buttons on the front laid out horizontally would have been on a separate board – a large snooze button, four control buttons, and two switches to turn the alarm on and off, and choose two brightness levels. A second board inside would have contained the actual “brains” of the unit. The clock features a 9v battery back-up, and a switch on the rear allows the owner to choose between 12 and 24 hour time. (Features like a battery back-up, and a 24 hour time selection seems awful superfluous for a hobby project, don’t you think?) Oh, and about that “M” logo on the circuit board mentioned above? Micronta.

For one last bit of confirmation, I located the pencil box Ahmed used for his project. During this video interview he again claims it was his “invention” and that he “made” the device – but the important thing at the moment, at 1:13, we see him showing the pencil box on his computer screen. Here it is on Amazon, where it’s clearly labeled as being 8.25 inches wide. Our eBay seller also conveniently took a photo of the clock next to a ruler to show it’s scale – about 8 inches wide. The dimensions all line up perfectly.
So there you have it folks, Ahmed Mohamad did not invent, nor build a clock. He took apart an existing clock, and transplanted the guts into a pencil box, and claimed it was his own creation. It all seems really fishy to me.
If we accept the story about “inventing” an alarm clock is made up, as I think I’ve made a pretty good case for, it’s fair to wonder what other parts of the story might be made up, not reported factually by the media, or at least, exaggerated.

SO THIS A REAL HOAX!!! CHEATER!!!!!

Missing Jew Found Dead in Uman

The body of missing 28-year-old Amir Shlomo Ohana, an Israeli husband and father of three from Holon, has been found in a lake in Uman, according to ZAKA. Ohana had gone to pray at the grave site of Rabbi Nachman of Uman in Ukraine, along with some 40,000 other Jewish pilgrims this year; including 30,000 from Israel.

ZAKA flew its personnel to Ukraine to help search for Ohana, who disappeared last week. He and his friend had separated in the forest, each to meditate, Rosh Hashana on Tuesday. When his friend could not find him, he reported him missing to local and Israeli police.

Volunteer searchers identified Ohana inside the lake. He was wearing Shabbat clothing, without shoes and socks. According to a report on the ZAKA website, it appeared that Ohana had been sitting on the pier, dipping his feet in the water, when he had what may have been a heart attack or epileptic seizure, and then fallen into the water.

Site where body of Amir Shlomo Ohana, z’l was located in Uman, Ukraine.

Specially trained dogs, a drone and almost one hundred volunteers from among the Breslov Chassidic group searched the area for Ohana, as well as divers who searched the lake, 15 Israeli police officers, additional Israeli diplomatic personnel and security officers.

Ohana’s wife has been notified, Israel’s Foreign Ministry confirmed. Israeli authorities are now working to bring Ohana’s body back to Israel for burial as quickly as possible.

Convicted Child "chazir"Sues Rabbi Yaakov Horowitz For Defamation

"fat" Weinberg

Convicted Charedi child molester Jason "Yona" Weinberg fled to Israel after a victim claimed Weinberg harassed and threatened him.

Israel doesn't notify neighbors when a molester from abroad comes to Israel and moves in next door, so fellow American expat locals in the heavily Charedi Har Nof neighborhood of Jerusalem started notifying other neighbors, but stopped after being threatened – as FailedMessiah.com and other sites previously reported.

Rabbi Yaakov Horowitz got involved and apparently continued those notifications.

In response, Yediot Achranot reports that Weinberg is suing Horowitz and, to the surprise of many, an Israeli court is allowing the defamation suit to proceed – despite Weinberg's US conviction.

Ann Coulter Tweets: GOP Candidates Pandering to 'f---ing Jews'

The "has-been" alteh katchke" "Irish Drunk" needs to sell some more books, I guess! 
She wasn't invited on Fox News to comment on the debates, so she stayed home "tweeting"! 

Right-wing commentator Ann Coulter has come under fire after posting a series of offensive tweets deemed by many to be anti-Semitic.

Coulter was reacting to Wednesday night's Republican debate at California's Ronald Reagan Library, during which she was apparently angered over candidates' outspoken support for the State of Israel.

She was particularly incensed by the answers given by GOP candidates Ted Cruz, Mike Huckabee, Marco Rubio and Chris Christie, for mentioning Israel when asked "What will AMERICA [emphasis hers] look like after you are president."

"How many f---ing Jews do these people think there are in the United States?" 

Coulter then asked, before musing that perhaps the candidates were trying "to suck up to the Evangelicals."

Coulter, who is a high-profile supporter of candidate Donald Trump, also sarcastically suggested Huckabee was "running for PM of Israel."

The tweets set off a firestorm of criticism, with countless people branding her anti-Semitic, while others alternately defended her and hurled rather more direct anti-Semitic abuse at her critics.

Some supporters began the hashtag #IStandWithAnn, which is currently trending on Twitter, with large numbers of primarily anti-Semitic comments by a variety of neo-Nazis and White Supremacists.

Coulter later sought to defend herself by saying she likes "the Jews," but refused to take back her earlier tweets.

It is not the first time Coulter has come under fire for offensive comments about Jews.

In a 2007 interview on CNBC, she told host Donny Deutsch, who is Jewish, that she wanted everyone in the US to become Christian, and that Jews needed to accept Christianity to be "perfected."

When asked sarcastically if she meant Jews "should just throw Judaism away and we should all be Christians then?" Coulter responded "Yeah... we just want Jews to be perfected, as they say."

Munkatcher Rebbe's Father Prohibited the Munkatcher from going to the funeral and saying Kaddish for him!

The letter dated 1981, and signed by Rav Baruch Rabinovich, the father of the present Munkatcher, Dinover Rebbes, basically prohibits his children from going to his funeral, saying Kaddish, keeping his yurzeit, or ever visiting his grave.

The letter refers to a barrage of harassment  by Rav Baruch's children, bringing their father (Rav Baruch )  to court and ignoring Bais Din! 

Rav Baruch was the son-in-law of the Minchas Eluzer, the Munkatcher Rebbe pre WW2 . The Minchas Eluzer was a rabid fanatical anti-Zionist . His son-in-law, Reb Baruchel, as he was fondly called,  apparently veered off the anti-Zionist SHIT"ah, and embraced the Zionist idea once the State was established. 

His son from his first wife, the present Munkatcher Rebbe, was made Rebbe (after Rav Baruch rightfully refused to tow the fascist line ) on the condition, that he continue the anti-Zionist agenda!

Notice the letterhead, where Rabbi Rabinovich still refers to himself as the "Chief Rabbi of Munkach," that may very well be the reason ,... ... why his very own children disowned him and shlepped him kicking and screaming to secular court!

The children were embarrassed of their father, not because he G-D forbid  went off the derech, but because he became a Mizrachi Rav in Cholon, Israel, owned a dog, and wore with his Chassidishe Levush,........ cufflinks and a tie!
 Big avirois! 

So the children, the Rebbelich, decided to ignore the Holy Torah that explicitly states that even rebbilich have to honor their parents, and started a campaign to drive the old man nuts! 
They succeeded!

I do believe that there was some sort of a truce, because I remember that the Munkatcher came to hear his father speak at the Sfardishe Shul in Boro-Park .... but I don't remember the sequence of the dates... so it could be that the Sfardishe Shul event was post  the published letter, and they made up!

Let's hear from my readers.....

Rav Baruch was a  Talmud Chachim of note who was fluent in the entire Talmud with all commentaries and was an accomplished orator, often keeping his audience on the edge of their seats in a spell!

Israeli Man Missing in Uman

Amir Ahona

 A young Israeli man has gone missing in Uman, and now a desperate search is underway to find him.

Amir Ahona, 28, a father of three, traveled to Uman before Rosh Hashanah, but has seemingly disappeared without a trace. His wife said she last spoke with her husband before the holiday and that he was going to perform hitbodidot (a type of meditation in the Breslov tradition) in the forest and would return after the holiday. She has not heard from him since.

It is believed that Amir may be in real danger, Israel’s Ch. 2 reports (http://bit.ly/1UW03ql), especially because he suffers from epilepsy. Because of his illness, his insurance company in Israel refused to insure him for his trip abroad and has therefore not sent a search team from Israel to help, his brother-in-law explained.

Early Tuesday morning, Ukrainian police in cooperation with Israeli authorities began searching for the missing man after being alerted by his group that he had not returned from his trip to the forest. His cell phone and other belongings were found in his room. “His friends on the trip noticed that he did not return and reported it to the authorities,” Amir’s wife said. “Initially, they didn’t want to tell me that he was missing so I wouldn’t be worried, but in the end, they didn’t have a choice. Now, I’m afraid I won’t find him alive.” His wife said.

 “Forces on the ground have rejected the possibility that Amir has drowned and they are continuing to search the area and the nearby forest,” a representative from the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry said.

A prayer rally was also held for the man’s safe return.
