אדמור"ים מדברים עיווריס

דער "משכיל" שמואל חיים פפנהיים פון תולדות אהרן ווייזט אונז אז היינט איז אכשר דרא און אז אמאל האט מען יא געדרוקט בילדער פון ווייבער

Remember when we ran the story about the Di Tzeitung airbrushing Madame Clinton out of their situation room photo back in 2011? Remember what kind of hellstorm that created? And how they had to apologize to the Western world? I even called up publisher Reb Albert Friedman to apologize for all the heartache I caused him! It turns it may have all been for naught, and that Mr. Friedman really didn't have to airbrush Mrs. Clinton in the first place. But it took a so-called "Maskil" like Pappenheim to bring this to light. Pappenheim was up until a few short years ago a major player in the קנאי camp, but it seems like all those interviews and meetings with the more modern and even irreligious elements in Israel took its toll. Today he's not so sure whether the ways of תולדות אהרן וכדומה are just and sane. But what do you expect from a man for whom the blood of German Jews flows? Toldos is but two generations in his family, German Orthodoxy has much stronger roots.

We do this to ourselves... We are our own worst enemies

"I'm was walking today afternoon in Jerusalem (in the religious neighborhood) and a guy came to me asking if I heard how they read the תורה today so I say no. So he told me its afternoon and they need 6 people who didn't hear today so they should be able to read again so I told him I have a few minutes I walk in the shul site down in the corner (I had my phone in my hand) after a minute a guy start screaming on me GO OUT FROM HERE we don't want people like you here. a other guy start throwing on me a box of cake (קיפעלך) and a bottle of coke then a chair in between the guy who called me in start fighting back... so they let me alone here is a video after the stopped fighting physical the guy who was throwing the stuff want out of the room when I started making the video. (He was like a 45 year old Israeli)

This happened in נחלי אמונה שטיבל today.

L-rd, protect us from ourselves. People like that Toldot zealot  have no other way  - or know no other way - to defend their WOL. They're throwbacks to a different era. At least the older fellow is. All they know is yelling and screaming. The tide is turning, but tides takes a while to complete the turn. We know that yelling and screaming isn't the way, but that piece of news hasn't reached the back roads of Meah Shearim. And may Hashem bless that very brave young man who stood up to them.

א מיאוס'ע אטאקע אויף חסידות - a.k.a. how to get a haskomeh on a hateful booklet

It seems like some haters never rest. And some times they'll resort to lies and deception just to make their point, and in this case to get הסכמות, just to sell the book. This character went to the son of the Old Toldos Aron Rebbe, zt"l, telling him that he wants an haskomeh for a sefer that will feature תורות from his late father. He then did the old bait and switch. He went and published this booklet full of hateful attacks against Chabad and Belz, because that's what he does best. And the worst part is the הסכמה that he got and that is now weighing on the conscience of הרב ר' יוסף יואל קאהן, who realized what this זשוליק did and issued a מכתב הבהרה telling people that this is not what he saw when he wrote the הסכמה. He has said out loud that he is not מוחל this man בזה ובבא. This is typical of some of the hard-line Satmar/בני יואל types who see everything in the world through this very small prism of Zionism, etc. They live and breathe this stuff and will do everything in their power to spread this deceitful message. I suppose if the author was in business he'd be selling grey market electronics on Coney Island Avenue. You talk about anonymous bloggers? This anonymous booklet takes the cake.
