Its an embarrassment that the reform were able to increase their influence while the haredim sat back and didnt vote. Imagine the koach that our tzibbur could have had in determining the face of our Eretz Hakodesh. The absence of a frum vote naturally translates into the increased voice of those who want to erode Yiddishkeit.
ReplyDeleteIts an embarrassment that 20000 yidden defied a psak from gedolei hador of all generations up to this day and a campaign of deception was launched by big powerful people hiding behind gedolei yisroel such ar Rav shmuel and Rav Chaim who did not issue any public letter of support.It was a internet based campaign something that the gedolim are against.
DeleteWho knows what kind of a kitrug this has put on klal yisrael
Personal questions for you Mr anonymous 7:40 AM
DeleteI get that you didn't vote and I'm not arguing with you about that but...
Throughout this election did ever care enough to say a single Tefilah that the Reform movement not be successful in this election R'L?
Are you more bothered by the fact that those who are openly looking to fight Torah had success in this election or that people who don't agree with you voted?
etc.
Questions for you Mr. Berel.
DeleteDid you ever Daven one bit that the Madreiga of Klall Yisroel should be high enough to see through the ruse of taking the Ketores and sufficating it into the Chelbanah? What were you thinking with pretending that 25 vs 675 will acomplish anything at all??
This is an old trick of the left Berel "did ever care enough to say a single Tefilah that the Reform movement not be successful in this election R'L?"
DeleteYou are implying that you care more about klal yisroel than anyone else with an opposing view your making an assumption while pretending to be so concerned about kavod shamayim but only you care about the reform no one else does.
No. I'm not going to daven for something I don't see as being true.
Delete( Your numbers are clearly not consistent with the reality. The WZO doesn't have 700 members and the frum world certainly had the ability to electa lot more than 25 representatives)
Having answered you, can you please have the decency to do the same for me?
An even older trick is that when you know you have no good answer you just attack the person you disagree with personally in an effort to discredit them.
DeleteBerel,
DeleteYou are lying again. The Zionist Congress has a total of 700 delegates. It's true that most are not from the US and are not up for American voting.
Again, what type of lies are are you spreading pretending that a few Frumakers would change them.
I won't argue this you further but I've done many google searches and every single site I went to said to the WZO has 500 members, Where did you pick up the 700 number from?

Berel:
Delete1) 25 vs. 475 is pretty insignificant as well.
2) Here it is clear.

It's just that they reserved 200 which are not appointed through votes - to purposefully nullify any infiltration efforts. This is why when one knows the facts, they would not join into this organization.
hey recruited thousands of clueless seminary girls in Israel to vote
ReplyDeleteThe frum media is now reporting the charedi voye as a joint vote hmm so now we are all agree to the mizrachi platform? its ok to agree to the Jerusalem program?
ReplyDeleteIts ok to have ladies in leadership positions such as Rabbis and yoatzot?
This thing is a farce and they used trickery and deception to fool the torah world it will not last SHEKER EIN LO RAGLAYIM
The reform are celebrating.
ReplyDeleteThe preliminary elections results are in and we more than doubled our vote count from the last election! Nearly 8,000 people (7,932 to be exact) voted for the HATIKVAH slate. This should equate to 10 delegates in the World Zionist Congress and means that, with the alternates, we will be able to send a delegation of 30 strong progressive Jewish leaders to the World Zionist Congress. Thank you to everyone who has supported this effort!
Torah jews don't believe in coincidence. Torah jews voting in ZOA elections happened at the same time Corona virus broke out. Scary stuff!!!! They claim Reb Chaim supported it. There is a letter from Reb Chaim with his signature this week about Corona. Had he said to vote for ZOA you would have seen his letter with his signiature. He never supported it. It's a media fake news scam. Now we may be paying the very high price for dumping our rich and well documented mesorah on this issue.
ReplyDeleteAha so Yiddel is our new novi .
DeleteI sure hope you weren`t kovesh your nevuah until today .
I don`t agree with Satmar
I don`t agree with Chabad
I don`t agree with Skver
I don`t agree with Ger
etc...
Doesn`t mean that all the worlds ills are due to the fact that there are people who don`t follow my shita
There were and are many yeriem ushlaimim who although you might not agree with are entitled to their opinion
Don`t be childish
We need to learn to live with each other
Right.
DeleteCoronavirus is all because of people voting in the WZO election. So why did Williamsburg and Monroe got it from the worst of all places?
Is the Satmar Rebbeh Rav Ahron such a Zionist that he got it too? (as reported on hefekervelt)
If you think you a Bar Hochi to know why Hashem sent the coronavirus then so am I.
ReplyDeleteWhen Hashem saw how little people certain cared about the spread of the Reform virus to EY R'L he decided to send us a virus to us .
So many people fought against containing the Reform virus that Hashem sent them another virus to contain in its place.
(No, I don't actually believe that . )
