Brother Of Late Rabbi Auerbach Says He Is Against All Anti-Draft Demonstrations

Rabbi Azriel Auerbach, one of the newly minted members of the Jerusalem Faction’s Council of Sages of the Torah World and brother of its late leader Rabbi Shmuel Auerbach, has said that he is against anti-enlistment demonstrations.

The Jerusalem Faction announced on Wednesday night that it will be staging its first demonstration since Rabbi Shmuel Auerbach’s passing last month, following the arrest of a yeshiva student associated with the group for failing to cooperate with the IDF to obtain his military service exemption.

But in a recording obtained by the Haredi Line news service, Rabbi Azriel Auerbach said he has always been against the frequent demonstrations staged by the Jerusalem Faction and that he does not believe yeshiva students should fight with the police.

The recording is particularly embarrassing for the Jerusalem Faction since Rabbi Azriel Auerbach is Rabbi Shmuel Auerbach’s brother but was recently named as one of the four leading rabbis of the group’s new Council of Sages of the Torah World, the rabbinic body that has supposedly taken up the mantle of leadership from Rabbi Shmuel Auerbach.

“I, from the beginning, was against all these demonstrations,” said Rabbi Azriel Auerbach genially.

“I don’t think that its good for the yeshiva students, for sure I was not of the same opinion as Reb Shmuel for whom the fire burned inside of him,” he continued with a chuckle.
“From the beginning of the journey I was not in favor, I told them that I do agree to do [demonstrations] in front of the prisons and study, [The protesters have a good point], but in the streets?” the rabbi questioned.

“The clashes begin, we don’t need yeshiva students fighting with the police,” he concluded in a disapproving tone of voice.

Rabbi Azriel Auerbach was known to be more moderate than his brother even before this recording came out. The recording is not only a source of acute embarrassment for the Jerusalem Faction, but also indication that the movement is less unified than it appeared when Rabbi Shmuel Auerbach was still alive.

NIKI HALEY EMBARRASSES SATMAR IN FRONT OF THE ENTIRE WORLD!

Can someone please explain, how a non-Jew can talk about Israel and Yerushalayim with such love and emotion, while R' Aron TeitelBUM and his brother R' Zalman Leib TeitelBUM publicly barked that President Trump's declaration of Yerushalyim as Israel's Capital, means absolutely nothing to them?

How do they not see the Yad Hashem here?

Why are they so blinded with hatred towards their fellow brothers and sisters residing in Eretz Yisroel, that they cannot see the open miracle of the ways of our Creator that had the leader of the free world declare with conviction his love of Israel??

Satmar wants to hand over Israel to the Palestinians.....

Well, why don't we start with the Satmar Bais Hamedrish in Meah Shearim? Why don't they set an example and hand the building over to Abbas???

R' Yitzchak Dovid Grossman vouches for Malka Leifer accused of 74 Charges of Sex Abuse

Malka Leifer wanted in Australia on 74 charges of sex abuse, including rape, while teaching in a Jewish school may be sent to house arrest after an Israeli court on Wednesday ruled that she could stay with a prominent rabbi who vouched for her.

Last week, a court said that it would delay consideration of whether to extradite her until a psychiatrist can review her case.

Rabbi Yitzchak Dovid Grossman, well-known among mainstream Israelis for his philanthropic work, served as a character witness for the defendant in the Jerusalem District Court, saying that “for her to be in custody is a humiliation.” He offered to host her in house arrest at his home, adding that if she left the house “for even a second, we will take her straight to the police immediately,” according to the Brisbane Times.

The judge agreed to release her to Grossman’s custody in the town of Migdal Haemek, prompting harsh criticism from an activist who wants to see her extradited to Australia and held to account.

However the state prosecutor quickly appealed the ruling. The suspect will remain under psychiatric care pending a decision on the appeal, scheduled for Friday. Her bail was set at NIS 100,000.

Dassi Erlich, who has accused the woman of abusing her when she was a pupil, issued an angry statement after the court decision was announced.

The woman “has been released on bail based on some random rabbi’s testimony that he will supervise her,” Erlich charged on Facebook. “If Rabbi Grossman can have a voice, someone who is not a part of this case at all, where is our voice?!”

Grossman received the Israel Prize in 2004 and the Presidential Medal of Distinction in 2013 for having rehabilitated tens of thousands of disadvantaged children through his educational work, which began in 1972. He was twice offered the position of chief rabbi of Israel, but declined in order to focus on his position as head of the Migdal Haemek yeshiva.

Australia wants the woman extradited for allegedly sexually abusing children while she was a teacher at a local school, Adass Israel.

Israeli police have said she is feigning mental illness to avoid extradition.

Her lawyer, Yehuda Fried, said last week that the court ruled she should be dealt with “in the realm of mental illness.” Fried said that likely meant a years-long process before her extradition can be reconsidered.

But Israel’s Court Administration later said that the court will convene again on March 28 after a psychiatric evaluation has been carried out, indicating an extradition decision could be taken sooner.

She was arrested following an undercover investigation at Interpol’s request and is suspected of obstructing Israeli court proceedings by attempting to hide evidence.

A court previously stopped extradition proceedings after determining she was not fit to stand trial.

The personal Gemara of the great Zionist leader Ze'ev Jabotinsky Sold at Auction

Sold for 3,050

Here is an important discovery that shows that Jabotinsky was interested and studied Babylonian Talmud.

On the title page, Ze'ev Jabotinsky signed his name and between the book's sheets there are pencil marks.

Jabotinsky studied in general schools and in his youth he hardly knew anything about Judaism.

But later he became acquainted with Judaism, visited many Jewish communities, and became familiar with the traditional Jewish way of life.

In addition to his high level knowledge of Hebrew, Jabotinsky was well versed in the Bible, and in his speeches and essays he quoted much of the Bible and his world views and many ideas he drew from the Bible.

Jerome Segal "Jew Hater" Running for US Senate in Maryland

Jerome "Kapo" Segal

Thirty years ago, Jerome Segal made headlines in Israel and the United States with an odd pedigree: He was the committed Jew who wrote the Palestinian declaration of independence.

That was never quite accurate — the University of Maryland professor of philosophy wrote an op-ed for a Palestinian newspaper from which the Palestine Liberation Organization appears to have cadged a good portion of its 1988 declaration — but it didn’t keep the Israeli media from calling him “The Palestinians’ Jewish Herzl.”

Now he has cast himself in another unlikely role: A Bernie Sanders-style contender for the US Senate seat in Maryland currently held by Ben Cardin. Segal believes that if he tops Cardin in the Democratic primary, he can show that the American Israel Public Affairs Committee is not as all-powerful as some believe.

Perhaps counter-intuitively, Segal was making his case this week at AIPAC’s annual policy conference, having paid the $599 entry fee.

During an interview Sunday in the halls of the Washington Convention Center, Segal recalled his 15 minutes of fame following his role in the Palestinian declaration of independence, which per his recommendation included recognition of Israel. In its wake, he launched the Jewish Peace Lobby as a counter to AIPAC.

“More like three years of Warholian fame,” he said.

And then the Jewish Peace Lobby followed the long list of American Jewish dovish groups that tended to land with a bang and then retreat to the margins of the Jewish community, if not disappear altogether — at least until J Street’s emergence in 2008.

“We had 400 rabbis, 5,000 members and accomplished almost nothing on the Hill,” Segal said with a wistful smile.

Satmar Rebbe Praises the fact that R' Shmuel Auerbach "strayed from his mesorah" Meanwhile R' Malkiel Kotler kisses his behind!

R' Malkiel "tuchis lekker" Kotler, R' Zalman Leib, Satmar Rebbe

In a Hespid of R' Shmuel Auerbach, R' Zalman Leib TeitelBUM, Satmar Rebbe of Williamsburg, praised the niftar for leaving his heritage and mesorah to become an anti-Zionist fanatic.

This stupid statement about R' Shmuel is actually a fabricated lie and a blatant attempt of re-writing Auerbach history.

The truth is that R' Shmuel didn't give two hoots about the Satmar gypsies, proof of this is that R' Shmuel started a political party in Israel called Peleg, that openly endorsed Zionist candidates in local elections, a no-no in Satmar, whose SHIT'ah is against voting in Israeli Election.

Meanwhile the "Chechele Mechele" R' Malkiel Kotler, the chief Litvisher Tuches Lekker, grovels at the feet of R' Zalman Leib, who mocks Malkiel behind his back!

When pregnancy announcements hurt

Recently, as I scrolled through Facebook, I saw that a close friend had posted a pregnancy announcement, celebrating their forthcoming firstborn. I’m ashamed to say that my first reaction wasn’t excitement for my friends. Sorrow filled my heart, as I saw a visible reminder of what I can’t have - biological babies.

And I’m not alone in my sorrow. One of best friends just experienced her fourth miscarriage, and another dear friend has struggled with infertility for over five years. Our longing for motherhood manifests itself in different ways, but our hearts all feel the pain of unfulfilled desires. Infertility affects approximately 12 percent of the U.S. population - over 1 in 10 couples! Roughly 15 to 20 percent of all pregnancies in the U.S. will end in miscarriage. The risk of miscarriage in known pregnancies under twelve weeks is one in five.

Pregnancy announcements and invitations to baby showers can be painful reminders of what’s lacking for women who are struggling to bear babies. I have a few suggestions on how these things can hurt less:

Limit Social Media

If you’re in a season of childlessness - whether it’s infertility, miscarriage, or barrenness, one of the most helpful things you can do for your mental and emotional well-being is to limit social media use. For many of us, it can be too hard to constantly see pregnancy announcements or monthly baby updates. Only you know what your heart can handle, but I’d encourage you to err on the side of caution.

If you have a friend who’s pregnant, and that’s all they post about, consider gently letting them know how it affects you. Chances are, you’re not their only social media friend who’s struggling with childlessness.

Invite People Into Your Pain

Suffering is hard. Suffering alone is almost unbearable. A solid community of friends and family will be the lifeline of your soul. It’s vital to have people regularly check in on you, know what your triggers are, and how to love you well. Allow people into your live who will intentionally ask how your heart is, and aren’t afraid of honest and truthful answers. Tears often scare people, because they don’t know how to react. It’s important to have a community who will care for you in the midst of tears and pain, and will be with you as you wrestle through difficult and unanswered questions.

When pregnancy announcements hurt, hold onto the promise that God has promised never to leave or forsake His children. By God’s grace, I’m still a Christian in spite of walking through the horrible experience of childlessness. I’ve wrestled with the Lord, screamed my pain, and groaned my prayers. Nevertheless, He’s kept me. The pain of childlessness might feel too great at times, but I promise that the Lord will hold you fast.

Auerbach Terrorists are upset that the IDF will charge IDF deserters only as civil offense & not as a criminal Offense!

Now that the IDF burst the Chareidie balloon, and will no longer charge IDF deserters criminally, the Auerbach terrorists are going insane because now they have no reason to protest and block traffic, and burn garbage.....

So what are they going to do now Bein Hazmanim??

Their leader R' Shmuel Auerbach z"l who years ago was a Kook supporter and a Zionist apologist, died, and now the leaders of Peleg are at a loss what to do with thousands of bochrum with nothing to do...

When you think you’re eating kosher, but you’re not

by Howard Feldman printed in the Times of Israel!

A few hours before the festival of Purim began, the Johannesburg Jewish world was turned upside down. An urgent notification from the Beth Din (South Africa’s singular kashrut body) announced that the oldest and probably largest kosher caterer, Stan and Pete, had had its certification withdrawn. Food already purchased could not be used but we didn’t need to “kasher” our homes.

I love good food. And I love gorgeous restaurants and beautiful wine and the ambiance and décor of establishments that make my heart smile. I have also been kosher all my life, which meant that on many occasions, I would need to fight an internal war in order to not transgress Jewish dietary laws.

Mostly I won.

But not easily.

Which makes the kashrut explosion in Johannesburg all the more difficult for me to swallow. Because it would seem while I have been struggling to stay on the right side of the kashrut divide, I have naively most likely been happily eating treif at smachot (catered events).

News about Stan and Pete spread through social media and many wondered out loud if this was not perhaps an inappropriate — and not funny — “Purim schpiel.” But it wasn’t. The owner of Stan and Pete confirmed on Facebook that the issue was real and that he was working with the Beth Din to resolve the issue. He thanked the community for the years of loyalty.

Which of course fueled speculation even more.

On Friday, the Beth Din issued a formal and detailed announcement that more than 20 non-kosher chickens were found in the kitchen of the kosher caterer. From the look of it, it certainly seems that there was a deliberate attempt to obfuscate, and to date no reasonable explanation has been provided by the caterer.

The fallout has been massive. So popular is Stan and Pete that it is unlikely that any Jew in Johannesburg has not eaten its food. And without knowing what else was compromised and how long this has been going on, it is unlikely that South African Jews will ever have any clarity as to how many times they failed to eat kosher.

Actress Amber Tamblyn claims a “Hasidic man” tried to run her and her baby over in Brooklyn.

The accusation, made in a tweet asking if there were any witnesses to Sunday’s incident, led to some angry responses against Tamblyn and condemnations of the Hasidic community.

“If anyone in Brooklyn near the intersection of Washington Ave and Atlantic Ave just saw a Hasidic man in a grey van try to hit a woman and her baby in a stroller as she crossed a crosswalk, honking and touching the stroller with the car’s bumper, please DM me. That woman was me,” Tamblyn, who was unhurt, tweeted Sunday morning.

“Thank you everyone for your kind words of support today. We are fine. But this is not the first time a man from the Hasidic community in NYC has attempted to harm me or other women I know. Any woman riding a bike through South Williamsburg can attest. I hope this guy is caught,” she also tweeted.

Tamblyn described herself as “shaken” but “okay” after the incident, in response to followers who asked how she was doing.

Some Twitter followers accused her of being anti-Semitic and stereotyping Hasidic Jews.“What kind of anti-semitic BS is this?” tweeted Mordechai Lightstone, the social media manager for Chabad.org. “It’s awful for any pedestrian, let alone a mother, to be threatened by an aggressive driver … But bad drivers are bad drivers. I’m sorry but this is an incredibly troubling generalization.”

Others criticized the Hasidic community.

“They really don’t follow our laws or really care. It’s scary,” one of Tamblyn’s followers wrote.

Tamblyn responded to the criticism of her tweets as being anti-Semitic by pointing out that she is married to a Jewish man, comedian David Cross. Tamblyn starred in “The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants” and “127 Hours” and had a recurring role in the CBS sitcom “Two and a Half Men.” Her father, dancer and actor Russ Tamblyn, starred in “West Side Story” and “Seven Brides for Seven Brothers.”

Fake Chareidie Walks With Lapid to Fool People in His Campaign for Prime Minister

In the above photo, we see Yesh Atid leader Yair Lapid with a chareidi person who appears close to him. They were photographed at a Tel Aviv train station Sunday morning 17 Adar as they were promoting the party’s ‘share the burden’ campaign.

According to a Bichadrei Chareidim report, the ‘chareidi’ at Lapid’s side during the campaign against chareidim is not truly chareidi, but a boxer of Russian origin who lives in Netanya.

Some of the little nuances that tipped people off include he was wearing a black tee-shirt under his white shirt and his yarmulke appeared to be the type one might wear when in the process of becoming a baal teshuvah, as well as the clip, which is not worn by chareidim. Lapid wished to show he has a chareidi supporting him, at his side, but the façade was revealed.

The ‘chareidi’ male is Dave Mandelstam, and his Facebook page shows him numerous times at Lapid’s side, but in many of the photos, we see he is not religious, yet alone chareidi.

BINGO! Supermarket In Boro Park Now Selling Shtreimels For $499 Will this be the End of the $2,500.00 rip Off Shtreimals?

Some folks love Bingo, and some hate it.

Those who love it enjoy paying super low prices on their groceries, while those who hate it appear to be many local store-owners who have been severely impacted.

The massive 70,000 square foot store, located at 60th Street and 13th Avenue since November 2016, is huge and spacious, and targets the price conscious and the bulk buyers, especially the many large families in the area and beyond.

But soon after opening, Bingo began expanding into fields other then groceries. They sold Lulavim and Esrogim, they had a live Chicken center for Kapparos, they sold menorah accessories for Chanukah, and now – they are selling SHTREILMELS!

Not only have they branched into all these new fields, but when doing them, they have undercut any business that had been selling those items, effectively transforming the industries.

It appears that the Shtreimel operation is no different – as the price for a Shtreimel is $499. A cheap (“Raigen Shtreimel / Rain Shtreimel) costs around $1400, and a decent Shtreimel can cost anywhere from $2,500 to a whopping $5,500.

Effigy of Charedi IDF soldier hung in Jerusalem

מאה שערים תליית בובה בדמוי חייל חרדי

A Charedi IDF soldier was hung in Effigy on Friday in

Jerusalem's Chaim Ozer Street

Police called to the scene removed the effigy

The Charedi effigy was Friday's second: Earlier the same morning, Israel Police officers removed an effigy of an IDF soldier hung in the city's Meah Shearim neighborhood. That effigy was found to be coated in a flammable substance, and police expect that it would have been burned later on

Just prior to the second incident MK Yair Lapid (Yesh Atid) said, "Again in Jerusalem's Meah Shearim neighborhood, a doll dressed as an IDF soldier was hung as if it were the wicked Haman

"The Israeli government cannot keep quiet in the face of the draft evasions and the incitement against IDF soldiers. The Charedi leadership must condemn these trends publicly
