AZ:
I feel the pain of the true agunos. The chained wives married to the abusive and manipulative husbands. The women too scared to live with their husbands yet too scared to risk the wrath and deep connections of her husband’s family. They have no choice but live a life of misery. All thanks to fear mongering and drama of falsely packaged statistics.
Rav Steinman and Rav Shmuel Auerbach both commented on the above case and expressed regret that the kol korei writers didn’t allow them to incorporate the words, “This is only a suggestion, but the middos and yirei shomayim of a family are more important than any other consideration. Chochom Ainav Berosho”.
So, kindly don’t start throwing around terms like Agunah to a hyped up “crisis”.
