Protesters later attempted to block the entrance to the capital near the Bridge of Strings.
Six protesters were detained for questioning.
Similar protests were reported in Ashdod and at the Geha interchange on Route 4 near Bnei Brak.
In the protest at the Geha interchange, demonstrators threw stones at police, lightly injuring three officers.
What a chilul hashem on so many levels! The unfortunate bottom line, Jewish people have been wandering from country to country over the past 1000 years and finally we have a state and guess who is not happy? The Charedim!
Sadly enough, they are the ones that are responsible for so many tragic happenings in Jewish history ( whether you like ti or not – check your history) and here we go again. Mind boggling!
They are sellling their souls and one place they can live for free ( USA for not much longer RL”T) and they are about to kill that too!
The yeshiva bochurim who set fires and throw stones at police because they don’t want to join their brothers to defend their country have achieved new heights in chilul Hashem. Mazel tov on your achievement!!!
Breaking wind for your own tailor is not a fitting experience. This is a disgusting era where the goose is looking for his own shoulder to break away from time. And if you want to keep the volume of Torah in our forces of Jewish Trust, keep your feet on the ground. We are not slaves if we have Torah and if we keep our heads looking for someone else’s fault all the time, we are always a broken distinction of last resort for our own minted voice. A good Israelite can always tell the difference between sport and limited authority.
Clearly we need higher decisions to keep our people together in this very unscrupulous day and age of Jewish history.
Never Again.
For this they have time and its not bittel Toyrah .Erev Pesach – they have nothing better to do?
They disgust me.
How are we supposed to be an “Ohr LaGoyim,” if we can’t be an Ohr LaYehudim first?
מִי שֶׁבֵּרַךְ אֲבותֵינוּ אַבְרָהָם יִצְחָק וְיַעֲקב הוּא יְבָרֵךְ אֶת חַיָּלֵי צְבָא הֲגַנָּה לְיִשְׂרָאֵל, הָעומְדִים עַל מִשְׁמַר אַרְצֵנוּ וְעָרֵי אֱלהֵינוּ מִגְּבוּל הַלְּבָנון וְעַד מִדְבַּר מִצְרַיִם וּמִן הַיָּם הַגָּדול עַד לְבוא הָעֲרָבָה בַּיַּבָּשָׁה בָּאֲוִיר וּבַיָּם. יִתֵּן ה’ אֶת אויְבֵינוּ הַקָּמִים עָלֵינוּ נִגָּפִים לִפְנֵיהֶם. הַקָּדושׁ בָּרוּךְ הוּא יִשְׁמר וְיַצִּיל אֶת חַיָלֵינוּ מִכָּל צָרָה וְצוּקָה וּמִכָּל נֶגַע וּמַחְלָה וְיִשְׁלַח בְּרָכָה וְהַצְלָחָה בְּכָל מַעֲשֵׂה יְדֵיהֶם. יַדְבֵּר שׂונְאֵינוּ תַּחְתֵּיהֶם וִיעַטְרֵם בְּכֶתֶר יְשׁוּעָה וּבְעֲטֶרֶת נִצָּחון. וִיקֻיַּם בָּהֶם הַכָּתוּב: כִּי ה’ אֱלהֵיכֶם הַהלֵךְ עִמָּכֶם לְהִלָּחֵם לָכֶם עִם איבֵיכֶם לְהושִׁיעַ אֶתְכֶם: וְנאמַר אָמֵן
The yeshiva bochurim and avreichim taking tot he streets are defending a true Torah lifestyle. Holidaying in Italy at Pesach is not a Torah lifestyle.
