The Admor of Shotz adds that the situation in the Land of Israel prevents himfrom sleeping; ” until now we have been accustomed to decrees from thegentiles, and now, when Jewish blood from the Nazi atrocities has not yet dried, Jews are already decreeing decrees on Jews! ”  He even justifies his criticism ofhis own Rebbe, Rabbi Aharon of Belz by explaining that at the time when G-d’sname is being desecrated, one does not have to adhere to his Rabbi.
