-Million man protest tonight in Israel. A dispute broke out between Charedi rabbis, politicians and pundits on Thursday over whether or not to participate in the right-wing protest scheduled on Thursday evening outside of the Israeli Knesset in Jerusalem. Yisrael Friedman, editor of the Yated Ne'eman newspaper, which is affiliated with the
Lithuanian Degel Hatorah faction within the United Torah Judaism party (UTJ), wrote a harshly worded editorial against participation in the protests. The other faction that makes up UTJ is the Hassidic "Agudat Yisrael". Agudat Yisrael has its own affiliated newspaper, Mishpacha, or Jewish Family Weekly, edited by Aryeh Erlich. Erlich criticized Yated Ne'eman for speaking in the name of all haredim."Yated Ne'eman will not revoke haredi citizenship, and Yisrael Friedman will not determine who is one of us and who is part of our community. Every person should decide whether or not to go to the protests or not," Erlich wrote, adding that "the warped culture of selectors sitting at the gates of haredi society and deciding who is legitimate and who is not" has passed from the world.

Let's see if they even get anywhere near HALF a million people.
ReplyDeleteHamodia - not Mishpacha - is the Agudah official newspaper. Mishpacha is independent.
ReplyDeleteWere these not the same neighbors who came out to support the overdevelopment on route 9 south saying how they "Kvell" watching all the "yeshivaleit" head to yeshiva!!
ReplyDeleteAs it relates to nekimah and netirah, popular conception is that any of it is assur, however see the following Meiri, which is based on the sugya in yoma 23a, which sets down the guidelines : נקימה ונטירה בכל ענינים שבממון אסורה שנאמר לא תקום ולא תטור ואיזו היא נקימה אמר לו השאילני מגלך והלה אומר איני משאילך למחר בא זה שלא רצה להשאיל אצל זה ואמר לו השאילני קרדומך והוא משיב איני משאילך כדרך שלא השאלתני זו היא נקימה ואיזה היא נטירה אמר לו השאילני מגלך אמר לו לאו למחר בא הלה ואמר לו השאילני קרדומך אמר לו הילך ואיני כמותך שלא השאלתני זו היא נטירה וכן בכל דברים שבממון שאין בהם סרך מסירת ממון חבירו למלכות אבל כל שציער את חבירו בגופו הן בהכאה הן בקללה הן באיזה צד של קלון אם האחר מפייסו על זה כראוי לו אף הוא ראוי למחול מלב ומנפש שכל המעביר על מדותיו מעבירין לו על כל פשעיו ואם הלה אינו מפייסו מותר לו בנקימה כל שרואה בה מקום אלא שאם רצה שלא לנקום עליה הוא בעצמו מקומו מושכר לו והוא בכלל העלובים ואינם עולבים שומעים חרפתם ואינם משיבים שנ׳ עליהם ואוהביו כצאת השמש בגבורתו כלומר שלא נתמעט אורו לקטרוג הלבנה כמו שהתבאר במסכת חולין ס׳ ב׳ ולא עוד אלא שאם רצה למחול מכל וכל ולהעבירה מלבו כל שהוא אדם בינוני תבא עליו ברכה הא מ״מ ת״ח ומלך וכיוצא באלו אע״פ שאינם משתדלים בנקימה מ״מ ראוי להם שלא למחול מכל וכל אלא יהא שמור בלבם לכבוד תורתם ומעלתם ויניחו הענין למי שאינו מקפח שכר בריאה עד שיהא זה נענש עליה על ידי מי שיזדמן וכשיזדמן לא יהא הוא מוחה בדבר ויבין שמאת ד׳ ומהשגחתו יארע לו כן אחר שלא מחל החכם ולא העביר צערו מלבו שנמצא המקלה מעמידו כל יום ויום בצער וע״ז אמרו כל תלמיד חכם שאינו נוקם ונוטר כנחש כלומר שמערים למצוא מקום למי שבא לקום עליו כדכתיב הוא ישופך ראש אינו ת״ח כלומר אין מדתו כמדת ת״ח שראוי לו ליקר תורתו וע״ז אמרו מפני מה נענש שאול על שמחל על כבודו שנאמר ובני בליעל אמרו מה יושיענו זה ויבזוהו ולא הביאו לו מנחה ויהי כמחריש כלומר שלא רצה לנקום מהם ולא היה העונש ממה שלא רצה לנקום מהם אלא מדכתיב בתריה ויעל נחש העמוני וכו׳ והוא הציל את ישראל מידו ואירעה תשועה גדולה לישראל ע״י ורצו קצת מהם לפגוע בהם כדכתיב מי האומר שאול ימלוך עלינו כלומר שהיו תמהים על מלכותו ומבזים אותו לומר מה יושיענו זה וכו׳ תנו האנשים ונמיתם והוא מיחה ואמר לא ימות איש היום הזה והיה לו להתבונן שממשפטי יושר השם היה מזדמן בכך:
ReplyDeleteWhy do the Morahs zicher the baby sitters charging so much$$$? The baby only needs a diaper change and a bottle. It's napping half the day. It's out of control but let's just keep paying like sheep!
ReplyDeleteBecause that is what the market will bear. They have a right to make a parnassah like everyone else. No business give services away at cost.
DeleteWE ALREADY CANT AFFORD IT GENIUS!!

Chs for daycare killed it for the middle class who can't afford it.
ReplyDeleteIt is crazy to charge $750 for 2 yearl old. It is very nice that the daycare industry has exploded in Lakewood were the govt is paying up to 1300 per child for those eligible but everyone else is suffering
Nu nu if no one stands up we're sheep
DeleteActually, a year or 2 ago when Murphy gave a windfall to CHS claiming he is helping make childcare affordable I was the lone person who responded to his tweet writing that he is highering the cost of daycares for all those not eligible..

DeleteAs a community we are forced to face the question of how we can continue to entrust the education of our children to people who lie publicly at zoning and board meeting and many other issues for their own personal selfish interests.
ReplyDeleteAnon 3:18,
DeleteYou bring up a very important point. I and many others share the same concern.
Yes they shamelessly lie about parking and Simcha halls knowing that they are fooling and not planning on keeping these promises and then they are the ones we entrust with the chinuch of tinokos shel bais raban
DeleteEhrlichkeit and Emes should preclude anything else
How does it work? Every few hours you comment on your prior comment?
DeleteYes Exactly
DeleteSo why do you send your kids to those schools ?
ReplyDeleteRemember when Reb Chaim Kaniyevsky said that we should not vote for a Yid married to a goyte? Someone denied it then, when he knew it was true. How can anyone respect such a person?
ReplyDeleteHow can you write such a thing about a member of the Mo'etzes?
DeleteThe original mass protests against bagatz was by the charedim. Irony
