Kastner did not put up any cash for him. The passengers had to pay themselves. Furthermore, Kastner used 95% of the slots for his family (all of whom were on the train) and his colleages. He allowed a small token amount of slots for others to hide how he otherwise distributed the slots.

And what is more, Kastner was one of the bad guys. He hid what the Eichmann was planning in order to get on Eichmann’s good side. If anyone needs to be thanked, it is Eichmann since Eichmann provided the authorization for the planning and permission for the train to escape Hungary. Without Eichmann, Kastner could do nothing. So any “hakoras hatov” must be directed to Eichmann rather than Kastner. But they were both bad guys who were wheeling and dealing in business with each other and neither deserves anything.

#5 a jew sais My agenda is that if someone did you a favour you must show gratitude. This is basic .You can appose their hereticle ideas ,but not with such poisen .If you would show some derech erets for what they did for your Rebbi , the machlokes would be more l’shem shamayim, on our side, and there would be no sina between one group and another .THATS MY AGENDA!!

Godolhadora-Sorry but you’re obviously clueless. What #4 was referring to was the Rebbes escape in 1944 not the feuding brothers (Rav Yoel ZTLs great nephews not his sons) dinner parties.

(Maybe they hate the zionists for executing Eichmann who saved the Rebbe????)

Rabbosai, TorahYid is probably referring to the supportors and goals of the Kastner transport.

To No. 4

There were no zionist organizations listed as a sponsor of either Rav Zalman’s or Rav Aron’s gatherings at the Armories tonight. The Satmar have very few contacts with the religious zionist organizations either here or in EY.

#4 – the train was organized by Adolf eichman ym’s together with kastner, who were in cahoots together. If you think any gratefulness is in order, you should be advocating they be grateful to Eichmann for organizing providing permission allowing the escape train.

Although it is truly sad that the two side are feuding, there is no way that there is a site today that can hold both crowds all at the same time.
As for ffb, your saying that Reb Aaron has twice the crowd of Reb Zalmen Leib; why don’t you allow the readers to look at photos tomorrow and they will come to their own conclusions.
As they say in Yiddish: “Es felt nish mentchen bei keinem!”
The two Rebbes have very different MOs and enough Chasidim each that many other Rebbes would be thrilled to have half of each.
Kof Alef Kislev is celebrated all over the world in honor of a Tzaddik, who after the Holocaust, did so much to restore Yiddishkeit.
This is the Ikkur.
