Can s/o please explain the need for police presence? And the protective glass around the speaking lectern. Maybe it's standard procedure. Just
ReplyDeleteasking
Police make it look like a important event like when the chasidishe rebbes travel with a motorcade
DeleteThe protective glass could be for corona or general safety from the public
police are needed because askanim are bored and this makes them feel like they are doing something important.
DeleteAnyone know where the Rosh Yeshiva will be davening shacharis tomorrow?
ReplyDeleteCand s/o post English translation of historic letter R Landau sent to R Shach z"l when he started Degel?
ReplyDeleteYou got your dates wrong. He wrote it after Degel started, when they were running in the municipal elections.
DeleteBut why dredge old issues?
How does s/o who never joined Degel, becme the leader of shimi glick degel/yated faction, all the way to Hapeleg/Lakewood faction?
