Whatever word is used to describe the encounter, it was certainly a chillul Hashem.

That’s NOT the way of Torah it’s a חילול ה׳ and it feeds hate against Frum jews

Something is wrong!
We all know and appreciate the importance of Limud Torah and Gedolei Yisroel always worked to be certain that the Lomdim would get a deferment. Now we have a new generation where liedegers are also worthy of deferment just because they wear a certain hat.

Baruch Hashem, I have children and grandchildren who are עובדי השם and serve in the army.
May Hashem protect them and all of Am Yisroel

Frumkeit without menshlichkeit is not Yiddishkeit.

I don’t think the shouting was respectful, but please don’t sensationalize it by calling it an assault. This kind of disinformation only breeds further hostility.

They weren’t assaulting, they were just trying to get an exemption from the army for being crazy..

Assault usually connotes a physical attack it seems to me, which I didn’t see here. I think you should either remove that provocative word from the headline here, or qualify it by adding the word verbal, as in verbal or verbally assault.

Why does the headline refer to them as “Angry Charedim”? Why not be more specific – “Angry Peleg Members” or something like that. Imagine the insidiousness of a headline reading, “Angry Modern Orthodox Jews”, or “Angry Hasidim”. Imagine a MS Media headline reading, “Angry Jews”…and the outrage it would cause amongst Jewish publications. Don’t besmirch every Charedi by lumping them together with these people. There’s no need to inflame hatred against everyone who identifies as Charedi. Please revise the headline (If you feel you must print it at all).

What a chillul Hashem! All of those “charedim” should immediately be inducted into the military and sent to the front lines to rectify their absolute IDIOCY.

Like him or not, the general is a YID, and his blood and his soldiers’ blood is protecting these “charedims'” petulant (and petty) lives.

Peleg is the opposite of what the Torah teaches.
Judge your friend Kaf Zechus.
and love your friend like your self.
They are really violent. That is not Torah.

Please explain the story properly. This is the general of the new ״chareidy” chashmonaim brigade. All the main stream rabbonim have come out against it in addition to the new draft laws. Hence they went fundraising for over 100 million dollars. While it’s improper to shout at someone in the street, one must still understand that these yidden taped in the video have dealt with draft laws and financial cuts due to the new laws.

What seems to be your issue? These army personnel are provocateurs, coming in to a area they’re not welcome ,only coming to make trouble.
