JERUSALEM (VINnews) — In the wake of the recent agreements reached between Belz chasidim and the Israeli ministry of education, Education Minister Shasha-Biton and Finance Minister Avigdor Liberman, the schools and cheders of Belz which maintain higher standards of secular studies will receive special funding. However the controversial agreement has been sharply criticized by the Yated Neeman newspaper, reflecting a split in ideological approaches between the Lithuanians and the chasidic group.

Under the headline “Huge concern due to blunt interfence and serious harm to chareidi education”, the newspaper claims that this is a generic plot using economic incentives to pierce at the heart of loyal Jews, all in order that Talmudei Torah and rebbes should change their goals and their essential character.
Yated also claims that the agreement signed by Belz will compel teachers in chareidi education to undergo external pedagogic instruction by the “heretical” education ministry.
Recently Belz representatives explained that their goal is to set up a separate stream since the Chinuch Atzmai refused to accept them in its system.
Belz MK Eichler said in an interview with Kol Chai’s Betzalel Kahn that “whatever the public knows about this program are lies spread by those who are not Belz chasidim, who seek to conscript chareidim to the IDF and who are part of those seeking to destroy the chareidi public from within. All the reports in the media are lies and fabrications.
Eichler added that “they accused us of making a state chareidi system but this is not the case. Up until now there was discrimination between those who were not members of Chinuch Atzmai or Maayan Chinuch Torani and the Belz teaching staff received 50% of what the Chinuch Atzmai is paying.”
Eichler denied that the Education Ministry would supervise new educational content, claiming that the new program would not be supervised by the education ministry but rather by an external supervisor.
It would seem some people want government money with no strings attached.
Belz always came trough, they are aggressive and determined and keep their eye on the ball, they are highly motivated like nobody else.
It’s all about money and politics and Belz is determined to elbow themselves in by all means, they will not be anyones little brother and indeed have what to show for themselves.
This rebbe knows where his bread is buttered!
Does anyone remember the guy who wrote in the Yeted against Belz during Corona? his initials were CH. W. This is just a reminder that when you someone having the Chutzpa to write against Tzadikim, then you gata check up their Yiddishkeit in other areas. So please don’t be a place for this stuff

For around a century now, the Zionists have come with money in attempting to shmad Jews. Most Jews B”H resisted, while others endured tremendous deprivation and poverty rather than be shmaded by the Zionists after taking Zionist money.
Who made Yated spokespaper for all Yahadus ?
when religious observance is secondary to money, observance suffers.
people have to stop this sick parnnioa that the tzionim are just out to shmad us. Its balnoey and lies. Sure there are issues. Sure they ain;t tzadkim and resent us at times. But they aren’t out to shmad us. This osn’t Ben gurion and the chazon ish times where they hated anything religous. Times changed now snap out of it
It’s summer time and the chareidim need some action, even though it’s just words. The chareidim will bash each other because it’s what they do best and most often. When it gets really hot in the summer, they will set trash bins on fire, stop traffic and many other wholesome activities. Come watch it, it’s cheaper than the zoo.
Do CHareidim in Israel fight one another more than any other affiliated group or does it just seem that way because Israel is a small country.
