    Were did you see these instructions for “Machoe”? To stay home and say Thilim?
    If all you would’ve come out by the thousands and join this massive protest together against this anti Torah parade, not only the Cheredim, this march would’ve not been permitted! Only because you are “Mekayem Mitzvas Machoe” by staying home that’s why this is Nebech happening!
    We are all against the so-called (anti)Jewish state of Isreal
    And for those organizing the protest Hashem is with you! Keep it up! Don’t give up

    Let the the Chareidim stay home on the day of the Parade and let them go to Shul and say Tehilim that all Yidden should do Teshuva..
    Making a Chillul Hashem by violence is not the way Hashem wants us to help Yidden do Teshuva, by talking to them nicly and being Mekarev evey Yid no matter what his lifestyle is that is what Hashem wants..Look it up in any Sefer you want…

    Yes! There will be a serious change! You’ll feel G-O-D’S Hand on yourself very soon! But it might be too late then.

    The Ohr Hachaim Hakadosh asks in the end of parshas Kidoshim, Why does the torah repeat the phrase ולא תקיא אתכם הארץ when it already said the same thing in the end of Achrei mos ולא תקיא הארץ אתכם, and he answers, The frum should not think that the land will only spit out the frei. It will also spit the frum
    על דלא מוחה כדעי .
    We need not mention Gush Katif.

    Ha Rav Meir Kahane, HY”D ZT”L, was right- there must be REGIME CHANGE in Israel. This is advocated for today by Ha Rav Mordechai Yitzchok Friedman, shlita, of the American Board of Orthodox Rabbis. The chilonim, yimachem shemam, must be removed from government and the land of Israel must be ruled according to Halacha. Malcht Yisrael must be restored and the land must be ruled according to TORAH LAW by a kosher SANHEDRIN. These faygeles are nothing but mosrim, and should be dealt with accordingly. They are nothing but a disease and are as bad as the Hellenists, yimachem shemam, who were defeated at Chanukah. Indeed, let us be zoche to the Moshiach, and in unison, we say omein, omein, omein, ken yehi ratzon.

    to anon 3:31,
    Chilul Hashem? Protesting one of the worst aveiros is a chillul hashem?? Lets turn this around, if the state demanded that we participate in the parade we would be forced to refuse even if they threatend us with death! That is how serious this parade is.

    On another note the action that the parade symbolizes is a chet that brings serious harm to everyone in that city. This is a defense protest, not a voilent nothing. They are defending their city against distruction for that is what will happen if this is not stopped real soon.
    Ever hear of Sedom? Destroyed! They practiced this is Mitzrayim – no longer a world power and has been the scene of many ruling invaders. Pompei – destroyed! Every one of the cities that practised this ‘freedom’ has been destroyed or worse ‘sacked’. Why can’t these people learn from history? Each one of these ‘toim’ do not know the forces that they may unleash on the rest of us. On second thought, they don’t care. Thats right their lot are a bunch of selfish people who for one reason or another have joined this group and now see fit to force their ugly vulgur and dirty life style on all of us. How many people have to die from deseases that these people pass on to each other before the world wakes up and stops them?

    In conclusion, from a moral standpoint its wrong. From a historic standpoint its crazy. From a monitary standpoint its fisically not responsable. Oh its also disgusting!

    May their sins die and let them do teshuva so that we may be zoche to Mashiach.

    I sure hope that the protest does not turn in to a protest of Shame…I really think that the protest should be called off so that there be no Chillul Hashem..Let them have their parade and all the Chareidim that do not want to see them should stay indoors… One act of Chillul Hashem is worse then the whole Pride Parade…

    Instead of criticizing the So-called Jewish state for permitting this parade, you’re busy with the undercover cops!
