חדשות -  מלחמת הזשיהאד בסטמאר במלוא המרץ - חסיד אחד כנראה שהוא גם כן מאיסלאמישער דזשיהד נשבע שיחסלו את רבינו נחום רח"ל! בתור נקמה שהוא מגלה לעיתונים מה שהולך בעון דור המבול אצלינו בסאטמאר!!!

הרבי שלנו במלחמת הדזשיהאד

חסידי סאטמאר באו להחלטה שיש להם לילך בשיטת הדזשי'האד הערבי, [והם באותה שיטה אחים לדעה עם הערביים נגד הציונים ], החליטו שאין להם ברירה אחרת, רק לחסל את הרה"צ רבינו נחום שליט"א.

ובשיטה זו של הדזשי'האד המוסלאמי הייתה שיטתם עוד קודם מלחמת העולם, עיין בעיתון טראנסלאוואנייע אידישע צייטונג, עורך העיתון שהיה מחסידי ספינקא, הזהיר בהכותרת שלו קודם המלחמה שבמעשה הטעראר שלהם יתנו כח להיטלר ימ"ש להתגבר, ועכשיו עושים גם כן אותה מעשה היטלער ימ"ש שעשו אז:

מעשה שהיה כך היה:

אתמול בבוקר אחר התפילה 142 ראדני סטריט, חסיד סאטמאר צועק בקול: כלנו למערכת הדזשיהאד להרוג את רבינו הקדוש, ומי שיעשה את מעשה הרציחה מובטח בגן עדן הכי הגדול.

ושאל אותו האם בגן עדן הזה יקבל גם כן כמו שכומרי הערביים מבטיחים להדזשי'הד?

תשובה: סאטמאר עולה על הכל ומבטיחים אלף פעמים ככה!

אנו מבקשים את הרב ר' זלמן לייב טייטלבוים שיתן הוראה לאנשי הדזשיהאד שלו שיפסיקו תיכף את הטעראר שלהם נגד רבינו הקדוש, ודע לך ר' זלמן לייב שאם לא תפסיק את הטעראר שלך נגד רבינו הקדוש והטהור, אז כל האשמה יבוא עליך. דעו כי היזרנוך!!!

שאלה גדולה אל הרב זלמן לייב הרב של סאטמאר?

למה אתם היחידים שאתם נלחמים ברבינו הקדוש?

הלא לכל הקהילות יש להם פוגעים?

אלא התירוץ הוא שאתם עושים מיליונים על כל הענינים האלו, ואצליכם הכסף יענה את הכל, אפילו לרצוח רב גדול בישראל, אוי ואבוי לאיזה שפלות היגעתם!

Anti-Abuse Rabbi Says He’s In Danger

Rabbi Nuchum Rosenberg claims that threats against him culminated in his being shot in the forehead last month by unknown assailants. Michael Datikash

A Williamsburg community activist who has spoken out frequently against child sexual abuse in the Brooklyn Orthodox community claimed Monday that his life had been threatened multiple times as a result.
Rabbi Nuchum Rosenberg claimed that the threats culminated last month when he was “shot” on Berry Street, near the Williamsburg Bridge by unknown assailants.

Speaking at a press conference outside the 90th Precinct Police Headquarters in Williamsburg, Rabbi Rosenberg complained that police were unable to protect him. He pointed to a scarlet wound seared in the middle of his forehead to indicate the spot where he was hit.

But in interviews he gave before and after the press conference, Rabbi Rosenberg said he was actually uncertain just what hit him on
 

the forehead, saying it could have been a pellet gun or even a rock.
“A car flew by as I was walking, and I felt something hit me,” he told The Jewish Week. “I didn’t see what it was.”

Police sources confirmed Rabbi Rosenberg had filed at least three complaints about being harassed or threatened over the last several months. But he acknowledged that he filed a complaint about the attack on him last month several days after it had occurred. Rabbi Rosenberg said the assault took place on Oct. 16, the fourth day of Sukkot, but that he went to the police only after the eight-day Jewish holiday.
Rabbi Rosenberg, 58, said that prior to this incident he was threatened twice at gunpoint by an unknown person speaking Hebrew who warned him to close down a telephone hotline he operated. The Yiddish language hotline featured recorded messages on which Rabbi Rosenberg addressed a host of sensitive community issues, including child sex abuse, and on which he made often incendiary charges.
On one recorded message obtained by The Jewish Week, Rabbi Rosenberg denounced various individuals by name as an “extortionist,” and a “mafia thug.”

The hotline messages also offered educational warnings to children and their families about what to do if confronted by molesting teachers or other adults and advice on how to protect against it.
On both the recorded messages and at his press conference, Rabbi Rosenberg claimed that a group in the Williamsburg community known as the Meshmeris Ha’Tznius, or Guardians of Modesty, protected pedophiles and other sexual offenders in exchange for money.

“It’s a gang,” he said at the press conference. “They’re getting white envelopes with green leaves inside.”
Law enforcement officials and community leaders have long reported that victims of sex crimes in insular, ultra-Orthodox Brooklyn communities frequently will not go to the authorities, severely limiting their ability to investigate and prosecute such crimes. Most attribute this to social strictures and community and rabbinic pressures against turning to outside, secular authorities that would expose the community to external scrutiny on matters considered shameful.

State Assembly Member Dov Hikind says he has compiled dossiers of at least 1,000 cases of child sexual abuse in Brooklyn Orthodox communities, based on first-hand accounts of victims and their families who have come to him. Many involve molestation of children at the hands of yeshiva teachers and rabbis, he says. But “99 percent” will not go to the authorities, he told The New York Times.

Benzion Twerski, an Orthodox psychologist who agreed to serve on a community panel formed by Hikind to address the issue, resigned last September after one week, citing communal pressure on him and his family.

But at his press conference, Rabbi Rosenberg said that in exchange for extortion payoffs by perpetrators, Meshmeris Ha’Tznius in Williamsburg protected sexual predators from exposure and pressured the families of any victims that might think of going to the authorities not to do so.

On his hotline, “I said who they are and what they are,” he said. “I told the stories that they tried to extort $10,000 from this one and $10,000 from that one.

“I even told them stories that when a girl was raped, they went to the rapist and they took out the money from him, and they never gave help to the girl that was raped. They tell the father don’t you dare have anything to do with the people that are trying to investigate. It’s against the Jewish law.”
Rabbi Rosenberg’s claims could not be independently confirmed. But there is no doubt the hotline provoked a fierce firestorm of denunciation against Rabbi Rosenberg.

Last July, 33 rabbis signed a public condemnation of Rabbi Rosenberg published in Der Blatt, a Yiddish language weekly paper based in Williamsburg.
“He speaks all kinds of dirt that the mind can’t tolerate, that come from places that are impure and makes other people impure,” the ad said, warning readers not to call his hotline. “He should stop from his bad ways and shut his dirty mouth.

“This destroyer is like a stone that is thrown at the Jewish people, and his position is like a transgressor who makes the public transgress,” the ad said.

The rabbis stated that Rabbi Rosenberg should not be allowed to pray with any congregation and that no one should hire him as a consultant on the building of ritual baths, which is his profession.
Yitzchak Glick, a member of the Central Rabbinical Congress, a body that represents many of the rabbis who signed onto the ban, declined to comment about the decree or Rosenberg’s allegations.
Another tract, distributed anonymously throughout Williamsburg, depicted a twisting snake with Rabbi Rosenberg’s head superimposed over the serpent’s, his forked tongue sticking out.
“Cursed are you from every wild animal,” the leaflet decried, citing him by name. “The name of this evil person should be obliterated. Get out unholy one. Obliterate the snake (Nuchem Satan) from all corners of the world.”

The ad by the 33 rabbis and others signed by the “Meshmeris Ha’Tznius” denounced Rabbi Rosenberg as a moser, one who endangers a Jewish community by informing on it to secular authorities.
Historically, in the shtetls of Europe, when Jews were persecuted, someone found to be a moser could be put to death. But “there is a general consensus today that this doesn’t apply,” said Rabbi Mark Dratch of JSafe, a group dedicated to preventing child abuse and domestic violence in the Jewish community. “I would [assume] that none of these rabbis were literally calling for his assassination. That said, I am not saying that they did not mean to intimidate him. He was being intimidated.”

Feeling betrayed after Hikind subpoena
BY MICHAEL ORBACH
The Jewish Star
November 21, 2008
http://www.thejewishstar.com/JewishStar.pdf


Assemblyman Dov Hikind's quest to end sexual abuse in the Orthodox community has taken a strange twist: he is refusing to cooperate with a subpoena served by an attorney on behalf of victims of abuse in a Brooklyn yeshiva.

Michael Dowd represents two men who believe that Yeshiva Torah Temimah, run by Lipa Margolis, knew that their alleged abuser, Yehuda Kolko, was a serial child molester but chose to not fire him. They have subpoenaed Hikind for information about the case that may be contained in the massive dossier he claims he has compiled about hundred
of cases of abuse.

In response, Hikind said he would go to jail before revealing the names of victims who have revealed themselves to him or his staff. Testifying against Kolko and Torah Temimah would also pit Hikind squarely against a powerful institution in his own district.

The subpoena has been referred to an attorney for the New York State Assembly, said Hikind. He called it "irrelevant" to what he trying to accomplish: a plan to deal with the  problem of abuse in the Orthodox community that he hopes to present to rabbinical  leaders as soon as January.

Revealing names of victims would violate his principles, said Hikind. "A number of  victims have called my office terrified that I might reveal this information. It can never happen and I don't think it has to happen."

Dowd said he would follow the common procedure of not publicizing the names of victims, and said sees himself on common ground with the assemblyman.

"We're both pointed in the same direction," Dowd said. "Hikind sees this as a serious problem in the community and I see this as a serious problem in society."

Hikind has repeatedly asserted that he attempts to get victims to press charges but most are unwilling to do so.

"My position is that I wish more people would go to the authorities but the reality is
that you can't force a victim to go," he said. "I wish the shame and concern about shidduchim would dissipative in some way, but the Moshiach will come first."

Hikind's actions have caused outrage in certain circles, specifically his claim that his office has met with a serial molester and sent him to a therapist, Ohel's Barry Horowitz.
Horowitz, who practices in the Five Towns, declined to confirm that he is treating a pedophile referred to him by Hikind's office.

"I think what he's doing is indefensible," said Marci Hamilton, author of Justice Denied:
What America Must Do to Protect its Children, and the Paul R. Verkuil Chair in Public Law at Yeshiva University's Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law.

"Once he knew that one of the perpetrators abused a child two months ago, he should've
gone to the authorities. He clearly cares more about the reputation of a religious community than he does about children."

Hikind stressed that he didn't think that the man posed an immediate danger.

Perhaps the strongest criticism leveled against Hikind has come from Pearl Engelman,
whose son, Joel, was allegedly abused by Avrohom Reichman, a teacher in the United Talmudic Academy in Williamsburg, Brooklyn.

Joel, who is represented by Elliot Pasik, an attorney in the Five Towns, is suing Reichman, as well as the school, and a Satmar bungalow colony that he claims knew what Reichman was up to, yet failed to act.

On the first of Hikind's call-in radio programs dealing with sexual molestation, Pearl, under the pseudonym Miriam, spoke about the abuse her son had suffered at his teacher's hands and the response of the United Talmudic Academy. Hikind promised to take action and ensure that by September the teacher would not be at the school. Since then Hikind met with David Niederman, a Satmar community leader, and administrators of the United Talmudic Academy, but Reichman is still teaching at the school.

"What interfered here was Hikind's own political survival," Pearl Engelman told The Jewish Star. "When he came up against a powerful entity, Satmar, UTA, and his political survival was in question, he chose his own political survival. Normally, I'd say 'may the best man win,' but in this case he's jeopardizing the lives of children and he's compromising his public persona by not coming out to the parents."

Simply put, according to Pearl, "Hikind folded. He completely
sold out."

Hikind said that he is still working on getting Reichman removed from the school. "The
Reichman family is a very powerful family," he said. Getting Reichman out," doesn't happen immediately."

On his most recent Saturday night radio program, Hikind specifically named Reichman
for the first time and warned parents about him.

"She [Pearl] wants me to go to war with Satmar and I gotta tell you, there may come a time when I have to do that," Hikind explained to The Jewish Star. "Right now, I do not want to go to war with anyone. It's not about one particular person, it's about truly making a difference."

Brooklyn District Attorney Charles Hynes, whose office came under fire from the Jewish
Week for allowing a plea bargain for Yehuda Kolko, defended his record on prosecuting child molestation in the Orthodox community.

Speaking at a panel discussion on religious tolerance, Hynes said "there are a great many allegations from Assemblyman Dov Hikind about this kind of activity and yet he has
refused to bring any information to the sex crimes bureau."

Later, Hynes said that he had no immediate plans to empanel a grand jury to force
Hikind to disclose information.

"Obviously, if I thought there was a basis on which to get those records, then I'd
empanel a grand jury."

Hikind professes to be grateful for the extra attention that the subpoena brought and believes that he's already accomplished something.

"Look it's not a perfect world out there. Let's go back 11 or 12 weeks, as far as someone
addressing the issue [of abuse] in the Chareidi community. It wasn't on anyone's agenda," said Hikind. "I'm involved now. I'm doing something. I'm trying. Give me a chance."

Pearl Engelman remains doubtful.

"I have faith in Hashem," she said, "Pirkei Avot says, 'Do not have faith in nobles.'"

Expose child sex abuse in the Orthodox Jewish community
By Marci Hamilton
New York Daily News
November 21, 2008
http://www.nydailynews.com/opinions/2008/11/21/2008-11-21_expose_child_sex_abuse_in_the_orthodox_j.html

Most people think our culture offers no sympathy to perpetrators of child sexual abuse and goes to great lengths to protect victims. But in reality, sex criminals still get far too much protection and victims far too little help. The most recent reminder is the case of Assemblyman Dov Hikind, who is sitting on files that detail such abuse in the Orthodox Jewish community - including the names of 60 accused sexual predators.

Hikind isn't revealing the information to the authorities because, he says, his sources - the people who say they were victims - had sworn him to secrecy and are afraid of becoming outcasts in their community. But the case, and Hikind's excuses, only underline the need for urgent reform.

First, he says that most of the victims are in their late 20s or older, meaning the statutes of limitations have expired and no prosecution or civil lawsuit could be filed. Regrettably, that is true; state law mandates that criminal charges must be filed by the time a victim is 18 and civil claims by 23.

Second, Hikind maintains that the victims spoke to him in confidence. Again, this is correct. If Hikind were a doctor, police officer or one of the other professionals required by state law to report such abuse, he would be prohibited from refusing to inform authorities because of a deal with victims. He is not.

This is infuriating. In the name of protecting victims, a state assemblyman is shielding people accused of committing the most heinous crimes imaginable.

Enough is enough. First, the Brooklyn district attorney should convene a grand jury to investigate abuse within the Orthodox Jewish community - just as the district attorney did in Philadelphia to investigate the Catholic Archdiocese there.

Second, the state mandatory reporter law, which requires health care professionals and others to inform authorities of child abuse cases, must be amended to include elected representatives. There is no sound public policy that justifies permitting these officials to hoard such information to the detriment of children.

Most important, New York must enact Assemblywoman Margaret Markey's bill to extend the statute of limitations on child sex abuse and create a "window" - making it possible for those victims whose statutes of limitations have expired to file, for a set period of time, a civil lawsuit against perpetrators and the institutions that hid the truth.

Most victims need decades to come forward. Current deadlines virtually guarantee that predators are able to abuse many children before (and if) they get caught.

Across the country, a grass-roots movement advocating such window legislation is on the move. In 2002, California passed a one-year window. The result: more than 300 previously unnamed predators were identified.

New York must get in step before more children are victimized - with no legal recourse as far as the eye can see.

Rabbi Rosenberg's life is in danger. There are many who are attempting to discredit him and or set him up because he has been speaking out against a community that cares more about money then they do the safety of their children.

I also fear that there are some in law enforcement who wish him ill. We all need to do what ever is possible to protect him. After several conversations I had with a particular individual I have a strong feeling that he or his family might be harmed again this week.

Let this be a warning that those of us who are connected to The Awareness Center are watching and demanding that he be protected.

The attacks against Rabbi Rosenberg seem to happen when he's trying to go to shul to daven (pray). Even though those who trying to harm him are Jewish -- I personally believe this should be considered a hate crime.

Williamsburg, NY - Nuchem Rosenberg: They're Out to Kill Me

 

Rabbi Nachum Rosenberg said he has received death threats from the Jewish community for opening a help line for victims of sexual abuser.
Rabbi Nachum Rosenberg said he has received death threats from the Jewish community for opening a help line for victims of sexual abuser.

Williamsburg, NY - A Brooklyn Rabbi who has been outspoken about child molestation in the city's ultra-Orthodox Jewish community said yesterday he's been targeted with death threats.

 

 

Nuchem (Nathan) Rosenberg, 58, complained outside the 90th Precinct in Williamsburg that cops have ignored his pleas for help since the summer.

 

The threats were so frightening, Rosenberg said, that he closed down a hotline he had set up in February 2007 for victims of abuse.

 

"And I am still afraid for my life, even though the hotline is closed, because they are still after me," Rosenberg said.

 

The NYPD confirmed that Rosenberg has gone to cops three times since July but said there is little they can do.

 

The threats came after a rabbinical decree, in the form of flyers written in Hebrew, popped up across Williamsburg in August calling him a liar, Rosenberg said.

 

"If you see him, scream [dirty Jew], [evil person], [immoral] & spit on him," read one text message sent to Rosenberg's phone.

 

Death threats came in calls to his cell phone, he said.

 

Sexual abuse in the Hasidic community is rarely discussed and not commonly prosecuted in secular courts.

 

In one unusual case, Rabbi Yehuda Kolko, a teacher at Brooklyn's Yeshiva Torah Temimah in Brooklyn, was charged with sexual abuse in 2006. He ultimately pleaded guilty to child endangerment.

 

Assemblyman Dov Hikind (D-Brooklyn) has recently begun collecting his own stories of pedophilia in the ultra-Orthodox world and claims he has "hundreds" of complaints against rabbis and other Orthodox leaders.

 

In September, a psychologist stepped down from a task force that Hikind formed to explore the problem, saying he had been threatened. "I was prosecuted in the street for daring to join such a venture," Dr. Benzion Twerski told Jewish Week.

 

"We all live here in prison," Rosenberg said. "We can't talk about what is bothering us."

Some of the comments below are so ridiculously primitive. If you're still busy with classic antisemitism, with invoking Jesus, or with just being downright asinine, then it makes sense that you live in a world where sexual predators abound. The horrible issue at hand here is the terrible dynamic that arises from a self contained community. Jewish or Amish or whatnot. If the Catholics are more prone to being on the front page of newspapers when it comes to issues such as sexual abuse then they should be PROUD of that. That only indicates that they have progressed on a whole as a community, more so than those communities which people feel so estranged from that they do not even know how to begin to criticize. This is not just a problem within the Hasidic sect, but also a problem within the ultra orthodox Jews (there's a difference), and i believe, within any secluded group.

No good deed goes unpunished, I suppose. But Rav Rosenberg should be commended for what he is doing to expose sin in that community. He truly is a mensch.

Kudos to the rabbi for bringing this odioius scourge in the ultra-orthodox community to light. The people in that community who protect the vermin that prey on those children are just as guilty as the people commiting the act.

Its nice to see at least someone in the hasid community is sane! It takes a load of bravery for him to do what he is doing and he should be supported in this matter, there is no crime worst then a crime that destroys the innocence of a child, and the Cops need to leave the donuts and coffee alone and help him in this matter, now had this been anyother religion I am certain the cops would be playing thier usual Gangbuster's role and bring the heat down on everyone involved but since it's the Hasid community once again they (the cops) show us just how high above the law they are! If you break the law, religion should never stand in the way of you paying for your crime!

This community cares very little about the actual people in its community. They don't like anyone rocking the boat, regardless of what the issue may be. Their only priority is covering things up so no one else knows about it. The police should take the death threats against Rabbi Rosenberg very seriously. In 2005 the Dept. of Health found that a Rabbi had been spreading herpes to boys as he was performing the Bris with his mouth and continued to do so during the investigation. One of the infants died and the other has brain damage. These people instead of worrying about their kids, helped Rabbi Yitzchok Fischer, escape any jail time and fought to continue doing it. http://www.nytimes.com/2005/08/26/nyregion/26circumcise.html

This community disgusts me! My partner and I moved to Ditmas Park, a melting pot in every sense, and they are the one group who adds absolutely nothing to the pleasantries and courtesies found throughout the streets of our neighborhood. In response to their blatant dismissal of me as a human, I refuse to acknowledge them in close encounters. Just last week, my partner and I were shopping in Shop Rite on McDonald Avenue; A Hasidic husband and wife team had the nerve to ask my partner and I for assistance; I politely said nothing while looking at them, but my partner, being the ever kind person that he is, moved to help. He got the only tongue lashing from me and then I politely (you know I'm lying) explained to them why I didn't wish to to aid them.

Rabbi's are supposed be supported by the community so that they can focus on the study of the torah and they live quite well from all this off the books money. Living in city owned projects while simultaneously owning homes in Florida.

Oh my god! Just like the catholic priests! (This is messed up and thank god some rabbis are willing to purge their communities of pedophiles and rapists...They say there's hundreds of cases, and I bet they've all been committed by maybe ten or twenty sick individuals)

Rabbi Nuchum Rosenberg claims that threats against him culminated in his being shot in the forehead last month by unknown assailants. Michael Datikash

 

תמצית מה שכתוב בדז'ויש וויק:

אם יש בעיה לאדם יש לו 2 מקומות למי לפנות:

1. למשטרה. ולמשטרה לא פונים להם לבד, רק שולחים לדבר עם נציג המשטרה, הנציג קורע את כל הטיק ולא נשאר זכר מהטיק, כי הנציג הוא המייצג של הקהילות, וכך הוא משביע רצון לקהילות וגם להאנשים הפוגעים, (אבל לא להנפגעים).

2. יש לפנות להאופיס של דיסטיריק אטורני שקוראים טשערילס היינז, הוא רץ להבחירות כל 4 שנים והוא צריך להחיות חיים נעימים עם הקהילות כדי שיקבל את הבחירות.

ובכן הקהילות יש להם השפעה גדולה עליהם, וכל פעם שבא מעשה נבלה, משלמים למשמרת הצניעות עשרת אלפים ויתר (כפי אשר יושת עליו, בהיינו אם החטא גדול והעורך דין מקבל 25.000$ ועדיין יש 50% שיכול להיות בקלע מבקש משמרת הצניעות מחיר גדול, ואצליהם זה בטוח שלא יגיע בכלא),

והדיסטריק אטורני מסכים מה שהם עושים, וזהוא זה, כאן אנחנו אוחזים עם כל השמירה שלנו, והחוקים האלו הם חוקי סדום.

וזה פירוש המדרש שבסדום מי שהיה לו רגלים ארוכות היו חותכים אותו, וזה שהיה לו רגלים קצרות מוטחים אותו, דהיינו כפי כמה כסף שיש לו ככה מחייבים אותו.

דעת הקהל נגד דוב הייקינד שלא רוצה למסור כל הפוגעים שיפסיקו את פגיעם רעה, וגם יש בן אדם שקוראים לו בעריש הורויץ והוא המנהל של אוהל קינדערהיים ולא רוצה למסור את הפוגעים, זאת אומרת שהם שומרים על הפוגעים ממילא יכולים להמשיך במעשיהם הרעים של דור המבול

ויש בחור אחד בשם אברהם ענגלמאן, שצועק שמנהל בסאטמאר פגע בו, ודוב הייקינד אמר לו שיזרקו אותו, וכשדיבר דוב הייקינד עם משה דוד נידרמאן נשקט הדבר.

הרב נחום רוזנבערג היה בהפגנה נגד תחנת המשטרה - 90 פריסינג,

מספר 90 - שייך לוויליאמסבורג,

הרב רוזנבערג מתלונן למה אין לו שמירה מהמשטרה שפעמים איימו עליו שירו בו, ופעם קיימו הרוצחים את ההבטחה שהבטיחו לו, וירו בו בראשו,

המשטרה אמרה אמת שהוא בא 3 פעמים והתלונן, אבל אנחנו לא יכולים לתת שמירה, רק, אם מראה באצבע מי שמאיים עליו, ובלא זה אין לנו אפשרות לשמור עליו.

זאת אומרת שהנציגים של הקהילות כבר אמרו להנציגים שלא יתנו לו שמירה, כדי שיוכלו להוריד אותו מהמפה, ולכן הם פרסמו איסור וחרם ה35 רבנים, וגם עשו תמונה עם נחש עם תמונה של הרב נחום רוזנבערג וכתו שם שצריכים להעביר אותו מ 4 כנפות הארץ, כדי שיהיה היתר כשר לחסל אותו מן העולם.

זאת אומרת שה35 רבנים האלו הם הם הרוצחים ממש.

ועכשיו השאלה הוא?

למה הפוגעים הרוצחים האלו הם ממשיכים להיות מלמדים ומנהלים, ואסור לפגוע בהם?

ובגלל זה הרב נחום רוזנבערג עשה הפגנה!

עד כאן מהעיתון דיעלי ניוס

השאלה הגדולה שלנו הוא:

א. למה כשהמדינה הציונית עשו גזירה של גיוס בנות, הלכו הסאטמרים עם כל הקהילות ביחד ועשו הפגנה של 10.000 איש במאנהעטען,

וכאן שיש גיוס בנים רח"ל לאלפים, ואין רק איש אחד יחיד ומיוחד הרב נחום רוזנבערג שלוחם בעד האלפי ילדים הנפגעים.

ב. איפה אתם כל הקנאים של סאטמאר שאתם שותקים ונותנים יד לפושעים!!!

האם הקנאות שלכם שוה פרוטה אחת? הלא עיקר הקנאות הוא כמו פנחס שקנאות היה על זנות?

וכאן הפירצה הנוראה הגדולה שנעשית ע"י מלמדים מחנכים ומנהלים כבר יותר מ' 40 שנה שפוגעים בנפשות טהורות בילדי תינוקות של בית רבם באופן נורא מאוד, כולם שותקים ולא נשמע דבר מפי הקנאים לא בארצות הברית ולא בארץ ישראל, שאם ימחו יזיק להם בכיס שלהם.

איזה חכמה היא ללחום נגד מדינה הציונות שזה חמשה אלפים מייל רחוק, וכאן שדור המבול הוא נגד עיניכם, ולא איכפת לכם כלום?

הלא מזה רואים שכל הקנאות הוא שקר שקר ועוד הפעם שקר!

כי כל הקנאות הזאת הוא רק, כדי לרמות את האנשים שכאילו אתם קנאים ויש לכם יראת שמים!!! וזה רק קאווער אפ לכסות על כל הטינופת שלכם!
