VIDEO: MK Maklev & Porush Regarding The Peleg Faction: We Don’t Represent Them!


(VIDEO IN EXTENDED ARTICLE)

Both Deputy Education Minister Meir Porush and MK Uri Maklev commented on the fact that Peleg faction protestors decided to protest outside their homes on Tuesday morning, 28 Shevat. The protestors at Maklev’s home tried to prevent him from leaving the Jerusalem apartment building to daven shachris. Police moved in and cleared the way, making some arrests in the process.

At the beginning of a session of the Knesset Foreign Affairs & Defense Committee “On Tuesday morning”, Porush stated, “at 8:40AM, there was a protest near my home. My colleagues and I were elected by close to a quarter of a million men and women because Gedolei Yisrael instructed them to vote for us. Those who are protesting did not vote in the elections. We know that Gedolei Yisrael did not send them. I want to add that if we are seated here, it is because Gedolei Yisrael sent us on shlichus, at their behest.”

MK Maklev added, “We were not elected by primary elections, but appointed by Gedolei Yisrael. We are caring about what they want from us. One of our tests regarding our loyalty to them is this discussion.” He explains the party is not left-wing or right-wing, and does not have a position other than representing Gedolei Yisrael.

The two clearly distanced themselves from renewing Peleg protests, aware for the average Israeli, the Peleg faction represents chareidi Jewry in Israel.

In the accompanying video, we see Peleg protestors outside Maklev’s home, trying to prevent him from heading to shul for shachris.

  1. Whether he was going to daven shachris, going to toivel Mikvah or going to DisneyLand is irrelevant. The fact tht these hoodlums invaded his home is a step to frar and must never be allowed to happen again. The religious party MKs seem to be unable or unwilling to call ou the criminal Peleg demonstrators and those rabbonim and askanim who instigate these riots for what they are and seek appropriate punishment.

  2. Rabbi Porush it would be quite interesting to hear from you who exactly are your GEDOLEI YISROEL that you represent and sent you , and you answer to , certainly not the Boyaner Rebbe anymore. The shomrei Emunim faction isn’t elected as there are no primaries, also all the new rules coming out of the ministry of education where you are, whom do you really represent?
