- Democrat presidential candidate RFK Jr. suggested COVID is a Chinese bioweapon “ethnically targeted” to “attack Caucasians and Black people” and to spare “Ashkenazi Jews and Chinese” people. Critics responded to his conspiracy to the sad fact that many Jews who died from Covid, especially the majority right wing orthodox Jewish population of Lakewood, NJ with the highest per capita of deaths in the USA.
Lakewood really had the highest per capita corona death rate in the US? How is that possible considering what a high percent of Lakewood is children? If even this means higher per capita death per age group there is still no way Lakewood had a higher per capita death rate than say a place like Brownsville, Brooklyn where one out of every 125 people died from Corona.
ReplyDeleteAhh..but half the public continue somehow to deny corona was/is dangerous &should be prevented?
Deletedefinitely was not highest. not even close to being the highest in new jersey.
DeleteMake sure to only go to an established Beis Din, that has a track record of timely Dinei Torah and dispassionate Talmidi chachamim.
ReplyDeleteIn Lakewood, it should not be hard.
And also, keep far away from toi'anim
Unfortunately there are lots of unscrupulous toanim who knows how to beat the system, and know how to direct their clients to go to corrupt batai dinim.
DeleteIt's not the toanim - it's their clients. Hiring a murderer and working along with him makes the person who hired the murderer the main cause of the murder. If not for the client, there would be no toanim
DeleteTwo observations, appropos of nothing 😊

ReplyDeleteThere was another letter about a Dayan in a Lakewood bais din that has messed up families with gittin and other cases giving bad advice and piskei din that were not fair
ReplyDeleteAnd there was another letter against that letter too.
Deletehttp://yudelstake.blogspot.com/2023/07/blog-post.html?
DeleteWhy are you posting yudel's poop?
DeleteThe one who signed that letter against the Dayan is not worthy to shine the Dayan's shoes.
DeleteThe one who signed the letter actually is worthy of signing and a well respected Dayan and BF but regardless the Dayan had to be called to task here for what was done during his power trip with the arbitration that messed up couples and orhers where he is a one man show and has to answer to no one
DeleteWhose BF is the letter signer?
DeleteThe Dayan paskened with two other Dayanim, and when people complained, he explained himself to Talmidei Chachamim who called him. He also explained himself to the BF/letter signer, who ignored that with this ridiculous letter.
This was no arbitration, this was a psak Beis Din like any other.
Is there any data if the billboard on the corner of new hampshire and cedarbridge contributes to the amount of accidents at that intersection?
ReplyDeleteYou will never know
DeleteThe establishment protects the billboards
Even worse there's a video camera on chai cares property that catches the accidents on that busy intersection and the footage is posted on the poop
You got to appropriate these self made askoonim who decide which BD is up to the “Pesakim style” in vogue.
ReplyDeleteA BD is a vehicle for HKBH to relate to two people who have chilukay dayous in a halachik transaction and the BD Paskens based on their taynes and “ lefee reois hadayan with the estates deshmaya of Elohim netz Av …as this is alef Bais.
Come along so e shvitzers who are unhappy with pesakim and do away with all this.
If and when you ever study Tanach b’iyun you’ll find yourself with lots and lots of company. And this is not a compliment by any stretch of one’s imagination.
As lofty as a pesak from BD is the higher step is to go for pesharah. pesharah by definition means each side gives something up. This is the loftiest path for any disagreement.
It a bit disturbing to read a letter signed by two gedolim of our generation without publicizing what case or cases they are referring to when on the surface this is against Halacha and against any Midas chasidus.
As is normal for people, no one goes blindly to a BD for a DT or for a Pesharah without checking into their experience etc.
Thus, as said above you’re omitting crucial information related to this letter. Providing that it’s not a forgery.
A Dayan Yochid without any reproach is a serious issue. The arbitration agreements he signs gives him too much power that is why the gedolim came out against the bais din and personally against the Dayan who is a one man show
DeleteThere is no Dayan Yochid here. It is a bona-fide Beis Din.
DeleteWhat exactly is a bona fide bais din. A few crooks print up a letter head are a bona fide bais din? Aha!
DeleteRe: RFK jr. The journalist who reported the comment made by RFK jr. Was taken out of context. I watched the video of him speaking at a meeting, and he never made that comment. What he did say is that the virus was a bioweapon and targeted different populations using their DNA. What he did say was according to a recent study, Ashkenzi Jews and the Chinese were immune from contracting it unlike the Caucasians and black people.
ReplyDeleteAha, so you're confirming for us that he was *not* taken out of context. Thanks.
DeleteWhy is AGUDAH SILENT on the remarks by RFK against Ashkenazi Jews. They were so quick to always criticize Trump non stop and now all we hear are crickets from the Agudah
ReplyDeleteShame on them for remaining silent
I'm no fan of Agudah being so quick to call right wing politicians antisemites when they are so slow to do so for left wing politicians but in this case they would argue that RFK jr isn't important enough to condemn. I don't remember them ever criticizing Trump directly
DeleteThey Beis Havaad should remame themselves Jewish Mediation Services Inc. To say they pasken al pi din more than say bes din of america is a complete myth. Been there seen it first hand. As the letters warn just know what your getting yourself into before signing your life over to them.
ReplyDeleteSheker!
DeleteSome of the greatest Talmidei Chachamim in Lakewood sit on the Beis Hava'ad, and they have a reputation of a professional Beis Din that refuses to waste time on nonsense.
Only corrupt toi'anim have a problem with them, because their tricks don't work in that Beis Din.
In fact, if you have a Din Torah there, hire a regular toi'en; someone who will help you prepare the case and no more. You have no benefit from a gangster, because they are not impressed with them.
Stop being their employed mouthpiece.They smell of ambition
Delete& polished Cronyism
…polished cronyism…kol ha’posel…
DeleteNobody. In the world. Has ever even claimed that about me.So you got …kol ha’posel…
DeleteWas a kid together once with several of those fellows.Little has changed Except for putting on a polished title
If tomorrow a different title is the "in" thing they will abandon this for the simpletons & finagle themselves there
Basically, someone went to Beis Din and lost. That happens many times.
ReplyDeleteThis disgruntled loser, instead of thanking Hashem that he was saved from theft, decided to run around town disparaging a great Talmid Chacham to take revenge. Most Talmidei Chachamim ignored him. One Safra Dedayna took him up on it and made a fool of himself.
Every Din Torah has a loser, don't believe the complaints.
Not true. Bais din works by peshara these days. Not din. They chose who they feel is right. Bais din shoukd be about din.
Deletebais din usually works with what is known as "peshara karov l'din". both parties agree to this before the hearing starts. it would be almost impossible to work with strict din because the muchzik would almost always be able to tainoh "kim li" and keep his money since there are almost always chilukei dayos about every case. but if the sides say they specifically want din, bais din will accomodate them.
DeleteIs it as simple as that
DeleteSounds more like someone who signed a document assuming they would paken al pi din, but it was anything but..
ReplyDeleteHow were they 'forced' to be Mechalel Shabbos? Why couldn't they stay in the streets? Why couldn't they be arrested? Where is the Yiddishe shtoltz? This is an embarrassment to all of us.
