I’m sorry to say this-but I think this is why Mashiach isn’t here. Because one group of Jews cant get along with another group of Jews. and theyre not the only sect to blame. We all do it. That and because people are obnoxious to other people when replying to their comments. BE NICE!!!!!

The Sikrikim go back to the days of the Churban of the second Beis Hamikdash. There were 4 main groups arguing over control of Yerushalayim. First, there was the Perushim-the Pharisees in english;they were the Chachamim and the Sanhedrin. They wanted the Romans out but were afraid of war as it would destroy the nation. Then there were the Tzadukim-Saducces- They wanted peace with the Romans and to live like the Romans. Then there were the Keanim- the Zealots- they were a break off from the Perushim who wanted the Romans out at any cost. And last(and least) were the Sikrikim They were anarchists and gangs.Named for their Sikrikim, their small knives that they kept in their cloaks,tey were willing to use force and kill to accomplish their goals.

This will only make the sikirikim want to retaliate and show that they can also inflict pain. He who lives by the sword dies by the sword.

Can someone please explain why this isn’t being resolved in a Beis Din? Has one side tried to get the other to submit to impartial din Torah?

Most of the above is incorrect.The victom has nothing to do with the SICKrikim he is leading a LEGAL battle against people which are called KOLLEL POLIN trying to throw him and all his neighbors out of their houses.The KOLLEL POLIN know that legally they got no chance so they are terrorizing the residents.It happens to be that one of the residents is a SICKrik and is fighting back like a SICKrik but the victim in our story is a represntetive of all the residents in a legal and halachically approoved battle.The reason why the news says he is a sikrik is all a magor success for the terrorizers trying to get people to say “let the 2 crazy parties fight” but it”s SHEKER VCHAZAV please!!!! please!!!! don’t help people who beat up an innocent person JUST because he is going to court against them-KOLLEL POLIN and spread the EMMES VYATZIV T H E V I C T I M I S N O T A S I C K R I K J U S T A N I N N O C E N T F E L L O W !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Found on another blog:

Kol HaKavod to the Gerrers. This is the only language that the sikrikim (thugs) understand.
We are talking about people who for them violence is their way of life. And now, when they are hit they complain. Finally somebody is talking with them in their language.
Many are trying to “close accounts” with Gur and are hitchhiking on this incident to do so. In this situation, Gur is completely correct, and I back them up..

MONEY, POWER and CONTROL that is what it is about from the time of the Garden of Eden continuing till today (same thing in Bet Shemesh — about money, power and control).

The Sikrikim are the toys of the cops and the ShaBaK and if the community does not stop them, no one will.

What is not clear is whether this Yid is one of the Sikrikim. If he is, well, it sure is hard to tell one Gerrer chossid from another, so it will be very hard to catch the members of the Pinchas brigade that did this. If he is not, then the Gerrer Rebbe must denounce this hooliganism and cooperate with the police. Otherwise, it is New Square all over again.

#3 drugcommish in LA – apparently Sikrikim are VIOLENT fanatic chassidim in Meah Shaarim (perhaps in Ramat Beth Shemesh B as well) that threaten, harm, and cause damage to people whose lifestyles differ from theirs. They apparently have been terrorizing their own communities.

This “saint” in this article has been accused of burning down a store in the area, along with other crimes as well.

See this article (here’s a quote):
“He is believed to have been behind the violence and destruction surrounding ‘Kollel Poland’ and the ‘Batei Warsaw’ as well as the attacks against the Ohr Chaim seforim store. Most pertinent to this case, he is believed to have ordered the attack against the son of the Rebbe Shlita, a resident of Meah Shearim.”

If everything he is accused of is true, then he deserves what he gets. He is simply a wicked person that needs to do Teshuva. Gerre and the Meah Shaarim community have the rights to protect themselves.

With that said, I DO think their response was a little extreme, but on the other hand perhaps it will weaken the wicked sikrikims’ self assurance and perhaps they will start to deal with their fellow brothers in a more peaceful manner.
