Ta'anit Asara b'Tevet
Chief Rabbi Yitzchak Yosef speaks the Torah Truth and all the Haters of Torah start foaming at the mouth...
Chief rabbi: Immigrants from former Soviet Union are ‘religion-hating gentiles’Instead of a Torah-based society, they prefer to wallow in the muck of goyish tumah and force the rest of us to suffer it as well. This is secular coercion!!
The Sephardic chief rabbi came under fire Tuesday morning, including from the prime minister, after it was revealed he had referred to immigrants from the former Soviet Union as “religion-hating gentiles.”
The Ynet news site reported that at a rabbinical gathering last week in Jerusalem, Rabbi Yitzhak Yosef told the audience that “hundreds of thousands or tens of thousands of gentiles came to Israel under the Law of Return.
“There are many, many non-Jews here, some of them communists, hostile to religion, haters of religion. They are not Jews at all, gentiles. Then they vote for parties that incite against the ultra-Orthodox and against religion.”
...Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu blasted the comments as “outrageous and inappropriate.”
...Avigdor Liberman, head of the Yisrael Beytenu party which has a predominately secular and Russian following, called for Yosef’s resignation over his statements, saying that his words were “anti-Semitic and racist,”....
...Blue and White leader Benny Gantz said Yosef must apologize for his words, saying that the State of Israel owes a debt to immigrants from the Soviet Union who brought cultural, scientific and social knowledge with them.
MK Tamar Zandberg of the Democratic Union called for the attorney general to open an investigation into whether Yosef was inciting hatred.
...Rabbi Uri Regev of Hiddush, an organization that advocates for greater religious pluralism in Israel, also called for Yosef’s resignation.
“Yosef is a politician, as he has already demonstrated in the previous elections, an actor in the Shas election campaign, causing deliberate damage to Judaism and the Jewish people,” he said.
American Santas hit Jerusalem for Orthodox ChristmasHashem yerachem aleynu! As matai!!!??
The Santas were trained in spreading holiday cheer at the Charles W. Howard Santa Claus School in Michigan. The trip was hosted by Israel’s Tourism Ministry to coincide with the date when many Eastern Orthodox Christians celebrate Christmas - Jan. 7.
...he 50-strong Santa squad were also planning to take a boat ride, in costume, on the biblical Sea of Galilee, and to float, in Santa bathing suits, in the mineral-rich waters of the Dead Sea, the ministry said.
We have been in a population struggle with the Erev Rav for quite sometime. Remember Erev is from the root word for "mix." They want to mix together our culture, Land (erase borders), gender, and several other things, including our precious Torah. As Rabbi David Bar Hayim had said, "The Reform Movement knew they couldn't attack the entire Torah all at once. So, its strategy has been to attack a piece at a time."
ReplyDeleteThe Erev Rav is not producing as many children as Haredi and Settler families. So, if they want to use Israeli deMOCKracy as a weapon, they must find the votes elsewhere. Even though they manipulate the system. It's still not enough for them.
מלחמת האוכלוסיה היא לא בין היהודים לערבים / The Population War is not between the Jews and the Arabs
Sorry, I forgot to thank you for this very important post. It is always important when the Rabbinate goes against the norm, and against the government which pays its salaries.
ReplyDeleteIn 2014, the Chief Rabbinate came under fire for coming out against the conscription (also regular enlistment?) of women.
But the more conservative religious Zionist rabbis have been saying this for years, and came under scrutiny at least as far back at 2001.
interesting that jan 7 (the day they orthodox x mas) comes out this year on 1oth of teves.....

Dear Tomer Devorah, Most immigrants to Israel from the Former Soviet Union have been a blessing. Unfortunately, within the vast numbers that came here, we also have with them what we have with OTHER groups --- Erev Rav/Mixed Multitude and their descendants = Sabbateans, Frankists and those who established the Labor Zionist Erev Rav Dictatorship that we all suffer from here. May Mashiach come soon and like Hercules, "clean out the Erev Rav Augean stables". Chodesh Tov, Aryeh Yosef Ben Meir
ReplyDeleteHow have "most" been a blessing? Even 22 years ago when I arrived, 60% of those from The FSU were not Jewish, in violation of the neg. commandment "lo techonem." I am sure I do not have to list the specifics: getting free university degrees on our and our parents dime, then going to Canada, producing more non-Jews, more intermarriage, more fake "conversions...." The secular Russian speakers have even been up in arms about this. The Left thought they were gaining votes out of actively encouraging their aliya (While Yiddish speaking Jews are still stuck in the Ukraine because they can't afford the train ticket to a major city with a Jewish Agency office.
DeleteSo, please tell me how "most" have been a blessing.
The onesh will fall on them for degrading our Chief Rabbi have no doubt about it.
ReplyDeleteIn Orot (if I remember correctly), Rav Kook already warns of the Erev Rav from the Soviet Union, warning the Yemenites to stay (insulating themselves?) in their villages, and thus away from the Erev Rav.
