Jack Hidary has NOTHING to do with the Syrian Sephardic community from Brooklyn. Jack has left the community as a teenager, as did his brother Murry. They have NO Torah or Hashem values. They desecrate the Holy Shabbat. Eat Non-Kosher. and don’t follow any of our sacred and holy values and traditions. They don’t even believe in G-d.

So Hidary is NOT a member of the Syrian Sephardic community from Brooklyn!!!!!!

I give the fellow credit but if he is socially progressive then he won’t get the orthodox vote and he will be just like the rest of the candidates. We need someone who will stand up for the traditional values.

“While we acknowledge we won’t be getting every Jewish vote, we can bank on a substantial amount of votes in the Jewish community, especially in the Orthodox community.”

Incorrect! The normal Orthodox voters will be voting for Erick Salgado. With Hidary’s admitted “socially progressive” position’s, he’s just another Steven Cymbrowitz! We’ve had enough! Just another Kavod grab!

Jack “described his politics as socially progressive>”

Does that mean that he supports the blatant immorality so rampant in our city?

Or, has he got the courage to speak up for our family values?
