It is a shame, but the Peles faction was ousted by Rav Steinemen and Rav Kenyefski shlitas for the reason that they were instigating troubles instead of promoting shalom. It is a shame that HaRav Shmuel Auerbach Shlita has been the only ‘big’ name rabbi to join with them against Rav Steinemen and Rav Kenyefski shlitas.

It will be interesting to see what the future will bring.

Let’s not get carried away. The differences with MK Menachem Carmel are only political. Everyone is entitled to have different political opinions and preferences. It is unfair and uncalled for to compare the situation to a rasha like C. Amsellem.

This is a Total shame. Why don’t the Litvish make a Moetzes of a few Gedolim and simply follow their rule? I’m sure Rav Aurbach isn’t saying he won’t be part of a panel with Rav Steinman… it’s absolute sisaster. (It smells like these guys simply want the power and then succeeded in making a cause out of it… Just remember that it all started over controll of the paper…)

If a faction is in line to get three seats, and they split, they get none, and the other parties (who they probably can’t stand) get their seats.
