It is no secret that tensions run high between supporters of Shas and Yachad, as the former views the latter betraying the derech of Maran HaGaon HaRav Ovadia Yosef ZT”L.
On erev Shabbos 22 Adar, Yachad activists arrived at Bar Ilan Street in Yerushalayim to distribute an election newspaper. It did not take too long for the Shas officials to realize what was taking place and they tried to interfere with the distribution. A ruckus followed and police were called. Police succeeded in calming the situation and then left the area.
Yachad activists add that following the departure of police some of the Shas activists set bundles of the newspapers ablaze.

The good news is, that when you beleive yourself to be acting Lesheim Shamayim, you are unburdened by nussuince thoughts of mentchlechkeit.
Sinas chinam. And we wonder why Moshiach hasn’t come!
If we keep on fighting amongst each other, the arabs are going to succeed.
I still can’t understand how any S’fardi can vote for Deri after seeing what Maran said about him.
