Chacham Ovadia: Extremists Are Making A Chilul Hashem


Maran HaGaon HaRav Ovadia Yosef Shlita has released an open letter to the tzibur as a result of the situation in Eretz Yisrael. The gadol hador uses the letter to address the actions of extremists, “those who are taking advantage of the situation to fuel the fires of dispute”, which he says results in a major Chilul Hashem.

The rav states he prefers not to list their actions and deeds, for he does not wish to further embarrass them, and he does not wish to delve into the consequences of their actions.

The rav address the media attack against the frum community, calling for restraint from the tzibur, to refrain from responding and to refrain from taking action that further fuels the dispute, reminding the tzibur that the Beis HaMikdosh was destroyed as a result of sinas chinam.

The letter was published in the Shas-affiliated Yom L’Yom newspaper.

  1. The problem is that these extremists don’t listen to any Daas Torah, and definitely not to the one of someone they perceive as a Tzioni, seeing that he was the Chief Rabbi of Israel.
