As the new school year approaches, the Eida Chareidis is cracking down to determine which institutions are secretly accepting state funds in violation of their ‘Taharas HaKodesh’ hashkafa. This is the response to the recent revelation that the Chachmas Lev School for girls was accepting funds from Satmar’s Keren Hatzalah while secretly taking funds from Israel’s Ministry of Education too.
Satmar officials are not taking this lightly and they are compiling a list of the names of all students in the Taharas HaKodesh schools and they are going to check with the ministry to make certain none of the names appear on the state’s list for funding too. Satmar is cutting off funds for any student’s whose name appears in the Ministry of Education database too and actions will be taken against the school.
The Eida and Satmar are warning they will not make exceptions and those found in violation will be ousted, adding they will only have themselves to blame.

double dipping literally.
Does the ministry publicize the students names?
$ helps the school’s education.
If the Eida or Satmar were to check details with an Israeli ministry, wouldn’t that mean tacit admission of the ministry’s and therefore the State’s existence?
satmer and the eideh steel from the israeli goverment
and others “accept”
“double work”
If satmer would give more money than no one will accept state funds but they give a bit and want to rule
Sorry won’t work
Perhaps accept state funds and steel from satmer (that’s what most do)!
