Spare not the rod - נאר מיט א פאר פעטש


































Read the editorial and tell me what you think. And they say that Rabbi Frankfurter is a "משכיל." Fooey. Why does he play into their hands? There are better and more "enlightened" (sorry) ways to make the same point! Does he not know that a public figure like himself can't go around condoning violence like that, no matter the precedent and no matter what the ים של שלמה says. Some things are best left unsaid unprinted in a public forum. Even I know that and I don't have editors and censors and advisers to remind me of that. Hey! Does he mean me when he attacks those "bloggers/rabblerousers?"

You take that back right now, Rabbi Frankfurter!

Hirshel Tzig - הירשל ציג said...

click on it.

webster said...

had to open in a new tab..... whatever.

the money quote is "a great-grandson of shneur zalman of liadi"

afra lepumei!!! whatever happened to r', rabbi or rav?!

Hirshel Tzig - הירשל ציג said...

typo, no doubt...

sounds "Maskilish," no?

webster said...

trying babyishly to sound academic

Mottel said...

The "a great-grandson of shneur zalman of liadi" is from Sarna, not Frankfurter.
That being said, the article is apologetic drivel.

Yelid Bakertown said...

I am waiting for the Day when Frankfurter will be tied to a zali Ezcalade SUV and pulled around the streets of Kj for daring to quote RJBS of Boston.. and all the kids will scream from thw windows Kocho Yieosa Leish.....

Ober Chochem M'Frankfort Dmien said...

If my minds serves me well, the Reshal bases his pesak on a Terumas hadeshen, who writes regarding beating a wife who his disrespectful to his parents, that he can beat her up.That would place this wanabee Talmid chochem/sophisticate Frankurter as condoning domestic abuse...I hope Charlie Hynes will not send some goons to pick him in the break of dawn for the violation of instigating domestic violence.
I think he opened himself a can of worms.

yankel said...

Can you argue with his point? Prove him wrong instead of rabble-rousing. I am not saying he is right (J. Sarna is a first cousin of my father and of Chagai Segal of Arutz Sheva fame and the plot to blow up the har habayis) I am just saying we should use our intellect instead of shrill anger.

Frankfurter is getting his material from blogs! http://torahmusings.com/2012/07/vigilantism-anarchy-and-jewish-law/

harry shaigets maryles saw your post and started pishing his drivel about chareidim, but was too cheap to buy the magazine and too evil to give attribution to you here...

"Blogs are a great thing for people who suffer from ADD. There is not one inteligent comment here about the interesting points raised in the editorial. Sorry."
is this a press release from the frankfurters...?
does frankfurter need a answer? does he want to start hooliganism and revolutionary guards in this modern day society?
Is the yam Shel shloma the way to go?
Reb Chaim Valozhiner (in the back of the masseh rav)writes that in our days you can"t even say Divrie Tochocha by putting down people.Is it Achsher dora?

shaul shapira said...

Tzig-

Some of your garbage is better left un-blogged.

I know you don't like R Frankfurter, but is this the best you could come up with?

Hirshel Tzig - הירשל ציג said...

Shaul S

I like him very much. When I see him on the street I make a point to say hello. He sometimes makes as if he doesn't see me...

So no, I have no problem with the man.

But I see that you do...

Plagiaristen said...

Hirshel, did Failed Shmatta take the Ami snapshot from you without giving credit?

Ombudsman said...

Frankfurter is out of his mind for using these mareh mekomos to justify violence against 7 year old girls who according to the Debriciner are not yet old enough to require dressing tzniusdik. And what was really driving the violence of the Sikrikim was an attempted real estate grab. That's why the Toldos Avrohom Yitzchok Rebbe called them mashchisim and Rav Edelstein from Ponivizh said they are making chilul Hashem.

Frankfurter is also an am haaretz. He doesn't need to go digging around for zeitigga Rishonim when we know the limud from the Gemara when you are meshachrar eved Ivri you can hit him to keep him away from the goyta shifcha who is now assur to him.

can we know more aboutר' חיים צבי שניאורסון and his life and legacy?

he was a grandchild of d alte rebbe and was moser nefesh for klal yisroel, why is the censor of lubavitch cutting this tzadik out of their history books

censor of Lubavitch cutting him out? where do you see that?

why do you insist on making up stories?

time 4 the haters 2 stop with their lies

Rehov slonim 11 said...

The little girl was never spit on... When the story first broke in september she was only yelled at... A few months later when it hit TV politions with an agenda added on new storys mamash a blood lible...

Neturei Sparta said...

Not true that the girl was not spat on, unless you say that she and both her parents were lying when interviewed.

And even if the meshugoyim only yelled at her, it is also assur. Oynoas devorim & there is a limud from lifnei ivair on scaring little kids.

shine said...

show me reb chaim tzvis books reprinted!

lubab prints thousands of seforim sichos pamphlets, hashkafa etc, but nobody ever reprinted reb chaim tzvis books nor his thoughts, never mind embracing his courage and love for the jewish people, not even quoting him!

isnt lubab about caring for jewish people & destiny?

Hirshel Tzig - הירשל ציג said...

so now not printing his books=censorship?!

monroe nj said...

Yair fluffman jumped on the bandwagon to bash the Am Acher magazine, wow he's late to the party! He had to steal it from scotty who stole it from you, hence the delay.

Plagiaristen said...

Shmatta reworks all the jpeg files as his own instead of leaving the original URLs which conceals that he took them from others. And lately he rewords every newswire too because AP / Reuters / Whoever don't have enough of anti-frum slant.

Hoffman by the way was caught using an alias a few years ago to attack Rubashkin critics. He first of all did not disclose that he was a part time OU employee who is clearly biased as a "journalist". He was caught because his alias "Ben Nathan" was attached to an email address that he forgot he had attached many years earlier to his real name and because he is called up for aliyos as Yair ben Nosson. He was outed by Shain & Mendlowitz.
