I read Rabbi Lipschutz’s article. My experience is slightly different. He says the violence never happens. I see it happening, but not nearly as often as claimed by the secular media. As someone pointed out, it’s funny that the same people who scream the secular media is biased when it comes to Israel swallow every word when it comes to negative comments about chareidi rallies. But I know what I saw. If you look at the (distorted and exaggerated) secular media articles, there are photos of burning garbage and garbage bins. Are they photoshopped?
They may have supported Rav Amram Blau, but they didn’t agree with his methods. The Brisker Rav refused to attend the hafganos except for once when they hired people to maintain calm. The Brisker Rav hated Zionism, and was almost killed for it by a libel suit, but saved the life of anti-religious Zionist Avraham Stavsky when he slandered by rival zionists. A picture of the ad he published is in Rabbi Meller’s biography of the Brisker Rav ZT”L.
DN, you also ignored everything I wrote in my post. Are you saying Shlomo Lorinz is a liar? That despite the haskamah from Rav Chaim Kanievsky for the book, it’s filled with falsehoods?
