Thank you #15. I too have been to the protests. Folks, its a sad day when you have to question who the real Gedolei Yisrael are. All i can say is that they ain’t the Eida Hachareidis Hataliban!

We are our own worst enemies.

Does anyone think for a moment? Do you really think that Hashem wants us to risk our lives -yahareig v’al yaavor, by sitting in the streets before a moving vehicle?
Also, since when does the Torah allow us to burn trash cans, which is gezel and nezek?
Rav Sternbuch, shlita, NEVER approved of this behavior!
Those who burn trash and call fellow Jews Nazis are themselves portraying the actions of Amalek and preventing the Geulah from coming. And it doesn’t matter how big their beards are (cf. the Vilna Gaon’s Even Shleima).

I went to the protest unlike most commentators here.
I am against Chillul Shabbas and a change in the Status Quo,
However however those “Rabbanim” who are in favor of protest should clarify what it allowed.
I am ashamed and disgusted by so called Jews calling policemen Nazis!
In the main and from what i saw the police were very decent in doing their jobs – if this was an arab protest it would have been over in minutes with gun fire.
When i told someone that i thought it wrong to call them nazis he said then you are not a jew.
As to him and the person who said something similar above.
YOU ARE ERUV RAV. Busha Vacherpa!

And would someone explain to me how one is allowed to throws rocks which are muktza on shabbos and break car windows?

The eida are extremists, a minority and do not represent klal yisroel. The gedolei oilem, Rav Kook, the Imrei Emes of Gur, the Dvar Avrohom of Kovno (head of the Mizrachi in Lita), Rav ZP Frank and others were not kanoim and recognized the state of Israel. Let us announce to the world that this is not our way and we are against them.

#10 UPON SPEAKING WITH A SHABBOS SCREAMER – AND SUGGESTING THAT THROWING KEEGL IS BETTER THAN STONES, HE RESPONDED THAT HE COMPLAINS NOT BECAUSE HE EXPECTS TO SWAY THE MCHAL’LEI SHABBOS TO TURN A LEAF. RATHER – IT IS SO THAT SHABBOS KODESH DOES NOT BECOME CHEAP IN HIS OWN EYES WHEN HE SEES IT BLATANTLY DESECRATED.

I continue to say, show me one person who has decided to become shomer mitzvot becaus of the protests, and I will say they were worth it. However, you can’t say that because it will never happen. Better for the mitpallim and Rebbis (shlita) to stay in the beit midrash where they belong learning Torah and figuring out how they can do better at mitzvot bein adam l’adam. The way they are acting certainly is not it.

To all the Tzadikim Protesting for “KOVED SHABBOS” Shabbos is on your side, shabbos will fight for you even on the moment it sounds like the Tziyonim are doing what they want with you, arrasting, Gas bombs, E.T.C. dont worry you will win. I wish My next “Kvitel before Tishrei will reach to one of you protesters espacilly to one that was hit, or arrested by the zionist police.

By the way there ia a lot of Comments here on YWN against you those are from pepole or Tenokes Sha’nisbi or not yidan. because a yid will not talk like that.

Congratluations Yidin! Kavod Shabbos! ader, you go according to sunrise and sunset WHERE YOU ARE.
Regarding Yom Tov, they sent torch bearers to Bovel — see Gmara Rosh HaShanoh. Hey YWN how about capitalizing words like Shabbos and Erev Shabbos and Torah and using small letters for arab names? Kavod HaTorah! Shabbos!
