October 19, 2025 9:14 am at 9:14 am in reply to: The Steipler Gaon on Zionism and on the Neteurei Karta #2460417ujmParticipant
Under Rav Blau (which was during the Steipler’s lifetime and which the Steipler is praising), the NK protested the existence of the State of “Israel”,
October 19, 2025 9:14 am at 9:14 am in reply to: The Steipler Gaon on Zionism and on the Neteurei Karta #2460416ujmParticipantYankel: How familiar are you regarding the activities of Rav Amrom Blau ztvk”l and the Neteurei Karta during his lifetime and during the lifetime of the Steipler Gaon?
They were considered very engaged in קנאות, as the Steipler writes and highly praises the Neteurei Karta for. Rav Blau and many others in NK were jailed many times by the Zionist state regime authorities in the Holy Land (during the Steipler’s lifetime.)
October 19, 2025 9:12 am at 9:12 am in reply to: Trop for Chosson Torah and Chosson Bereishis #2460412ujmParticipantBesalel: You’re basically correct but Sliwa would have to pull out of the race completely to give Cuomo a chance to win. In the absence of that happening, and Sliwa has given every indication he’s a kamikaze till the end, Mamdani is going to win. (Even if Sliwa does pull out the odds favor Mamdani.)
ujmParticipantIt’s more notable if there’s ever a case of someone r’l going into the IDF frum and coming out (even somewhat) frum.
The other direction, as the title of this thread discusses, is r’l the expected and default.
October 17, 2025 10:07 am at 10:07 am in reply to: The Steipler Gaon on Zionism and on the Neteurei Karta #2460018ujmParticipantThe quote: “fighting the last war” comes to mind
lebidik yankel: I’m shocked you’d accuse the heilige Steipler Gaon of that.
When the Steipler wrote the above words of high praise for everything the Neturei Karta does, the Neturei Karta was already very well known during the lifetime of the Steipler as being big kanoim (as the Steipler himself wrote) who protested within and outside the State of “Israel” over the State’s existence and terrible actions. HaRav Amrom Blau ztvk”l was already arrested and thrown into Zionist prison many times during the Steipler’s lifetime for his so-called radicalism in, to use your words in which you accuse the Steipler of, “fighting the last war”.
And yet you see yourself what the Steipler Gaon says above about the Neturei Karta “fighting the last war”.
ujmParticipantMishpacha and Ami are left-wing rags. Both always have been that since the very first issues the each published.

October 3, 2025 8:37 am at 8:37 am in reply to: Out of Town – Chassidish community options? #2456017ujmParticipantRocky: 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 25, 2025 2:31 pm at 2:31 pm in reply to: 770: A Mikdash or a Madhouse? Rabbonim Must Act Now #2453286ujmParticipantIs it still a possibility, at least theoretically, for Chabad Lubavitch to install a new Rebbe?
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.

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.

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.
