October 3, 2025 8:37 am at 8:37 am in reply to: Out of Town – Chassidish community options? #2456017ujmParticipant
Rocky: Even the OOT communities that are treading water and holding a steady frum population, often are simply experiencing no rate of growth, despite the obvious fact that the frum community B”H has a strong population growth rate. This is because even in those OOT communities many (even if not all) of the younger and newlyweds move to the Lakewood area.
ujmParticipantujmParticipantSeptember 25, 2025 10:19 pm at 10:19 pm in reply to: Out of Town – Chassidish community options? #2453904ujmParticipantAAQ: I include all the surrounding neighborhoods (including Toms River and Jackson among others) in my description of “Lakewood”. And the Greater Lakewood area (if you prefer that description) has been draining the populations of most out of town American communities, for the last 20+ some odd years. OOT frum communities over the last approximately 20 years have been hemorrhaging in either a decline or flat population (when frum population growth would typically increase the population.)

September 22, 2025 1:24 pm at 1:24 pm in reply to: Out of Town – Chassidish community options? #2452889ujmParticipantThe reality of the last twenty plus years is that Lakewood has been draining the frum populations of most out of town communities, which are either smaller or simply flat population-wise.
September 22, 2025 1:24 pm at 1:24 pm in reply to: Old Yishuv Residents: Pre-1948 vs. Pre-1880 #2452881ujmParticipantAnyone who came pre-48 generally did so without their emigration being facilitated by the Zionists. So the Zionists argument that they owe allegiance is clearly false.
Many who came after 1948, also, did so without it being due to the Zionists. Just like those before 1948, who came despite the Zionists, not because of them.
Most of the Zionists themselves came after 1948.
The Ran in Nedarim paskens l’halacha that the halacha of dina d’malchusa dina does NOT apply in Eretz Yisroel, since the basis of the halacha is that the local country granted the right for its Jews to live in their land, therefore the Jews must obey the law of that land. Whereas, paskens the Ran, in Eretz Yisroel every Jew in the world has a G-d given right to live there, therefore they do not owe anything to the now current local rulers of Eretz Yisroel; and as such there’s no applicable dina d’malchusa dina in Eretz Yisroel.
ujmParticipantI have the same problem with my Lamborghini.
September 22, 2025 1:24 pm at 1:24 pm in reply to: Lashon Hara, Rechilus, MS”R against the MO, DL, Conservative, Reform community #2452867ujmParticipantSo what your are saying is that everyone agrees the only question is where to draw the line of who is in, and who is out; but that everyone agrees there is a line, and some groups are outside the line? (And those Jews outside the line it is permitted [or even a Mitzvah] to speak L”H, R, MS”R, etc. of.)

ujmParticipantujmParticipantSeptember 18, 2025 11:54 am at 11:54 am in reply to: Mochel Loch… time to forgive and be forgiven! #2451594ujmParticipantDaMoshe: Anyone who was hurt is included; you weren’t (despite your pretenses), so it isn’t applicable.
ZSK: Either you’re wildly confusing me with someone else or you’re pulling all those fictitious claims out of your hat. In fact, I hardly ever even discuss the DL community.
In any event, I’ll open a new thread to continue pointing out both your prevarications and won’t be addressing it in this thread any further, in order to keep this thread for its original and positive intent for grace, which you both are trying to invalidate with the opposite. You can continue such discussion in the new thread, if you expect a response.
ujmParticipantujmParticipantmunk: No, that’s only momentarily. Then the dangerous drivers feel confident speeding and/or driving like a Wild Indian whenever there’s no reports of police nearby.
September 18, 2025 11:52 am at 11:52 am in reply to: Should Chareidi demonstrators be drafted. #2451462ujmParticipantAAQ: If a country makes an agreement with a group, future governments cannot unilaterally revoke it.
Think of the American government agreements with the Native Americans (better known as Indians). The US can’t cancel it today and say they aren’t bound by the American government that agreed to it 100, 75 or 50 years ago.
Like the Indians in America, the Chareidim predate, by far, the Zionists in living in Eretz Yisroel.

The Zionist apikorsus spewed is anti-Jewish are certainly from either Goyim or outright heretics.

ujmParticipantJust like the stories we heard during the Holocaust when Yidden miraculously escaped from the Nazis ym”s.

I am mochel those who feel they need or wish it, whether necessary or not.
ujmParticipantYes.
September 12, 2025 2:50 pm at 2:50 pm in reply to: Should Chareidi demonstrators be drafted. #2449181ujmParticipantThe Zionist Army isn’t worthy of them. They are opposed up Znus, whereas the IDF values Znus and engages in it in a widespread manner.
ujmParticipantMaran R’ Shteinman Tells Yeshiva Student To ‘Go To India’ Instead Of IDF
Yeshiva student visited with HaGaon HaRav Aaron Yehuda Leib Shteinman Shlita seeking the Gadol Hador’s advice as he feels he can no longer remain in beis medrash, lacking fulfillment from his learning as he explained his situation. According to a Kikar Shabbat report, the young man asked what his next step in life should be, explaining to the rav he is considering enlistment into the IDF as an option.
The rav took the young man by surprise to put it mildly, instructing him “travel to India” in response to his thoughts of joining the IDF.
ujmParticipantI think it is high time for Agudas Yisroel of America to, once again, organize a mass protest and Tefilla Vigil of 50,000 plus Yidden against the Zionist government of the State of “Israel”, as they have in the past under the leadership of the Gedolim, including Rav Ahron Schechter zt”l, Rav Elya Ber Wachtfogel shlit”a yblc and others, including often jointly between Agudas Yisroel and both Satmar Rebbes, as was done in Barclay’s Center in Brooklyn in 2017, in Manhattan in 2014 and 2013 and 1999, among other times.
It’s already over five years since the last massive protest by American Orthodox Jewry against the Israeli government. And the the Zionists (especially their Attorney General and in their so-called Supreme Court) are currently, again, attempting to forcibly rip Bnei Torah out of the Yeshivos and impress them into their Cantonist army of znus.
ujmParticipantujmParticipantujmParticipantubiq — Furthermore, in practice, like most things, the vast majority of Torah observant Klal Yisroel absolutely does follow Rav Moshe on this. Even the Young Israel shuls that used to have an open parking lot on Shabbos have all long closed them. There was one Young Israel in Las Vegas that was at one point the last Young Israel in the country that had it.
ujmParticipantujmParticipantNone2.0: Jews are obligated to censor themselves. And to censor others who fail to censor themselves.
At least if you’re an Orthodox Torah-observant Jew.
September 11, 2025 5:05 pm at 5:05 pm in reply to: Tiferes Shlomo and the modern State of Israel #2447818ujmParticipantYankel: All those Arab behaviors you’re describing started after that advent of Zionism and the Zionist agitation to take over political control of Palestine.
ujmParticipantubiq: Do you pull this stuff out of a hat or simply make it up as you go along?
Rav Shlomo Zalman does NOT permit it whatsoever. All he permits is inviting someone on Shabbos IF you offer him a place to sleep so that he doesn’t have to be Mechallel Shabbos to come. He does NOT permit renting a parking lot so people can drive there on Shabbos, like AAQ and his father wanted.
Do you really fail to see the huge, tremendous and significant difference?
And Rav Ahron Leib holds exactly as Rav Moshe.
