VIDEO/PHOTOS: Chareidi “Kevarim” Protester Arrested For Obstructing Construction In Ramat Shlomo


(VIDEO AND PHOTOS IN EXTENDED ARTICLE)

Arrests were made when chareidim interfered with construction workers in the Ramat Shlomo neighborhood of Yerushalayim, claiming the construction workers were compromising ancient kevarim at that location.

The protest took place on Tuesday, 12 Menachem Av.

Following the latest protest, it is reported that construction supervisors are going to sit and meet with persons from Asra Kadisha to discuss the matter.

  1. Geez….we haven’t seen these types of protests in a while since the crazies tried to obstruct construction of a critically needed emergency room at a hospital during the Gaza rocket attacks several years ago. Even Litzman, who was the newly appointed health minister at the time supported the construction. The government has an advisory committee with expert archeologists and rabbonim who review such cases and impose any restrictions where there is evidence of yiddeshe kevorim. However, there are always a few zealots who will not accept the government’s decision and want to demonstrate. Of course, they can do so peacefully but when they engage in civil disobedience, be careful you don’t end up under a bulldozer. It seems one of the demonstrators shown in the short video is limping along helped by his chevrah.

  2. Someone failed to pay off the right person.
    At the planned meeting payment arrangements will be made and the protests will be called off.
    Standard operating procedure.

  3. hold on! the dignity of the dead should be protected and building not allowed to continue until those buried there are either given a proper re-burial or left intact and not disturbed.

    Look it up in Shulchan Oreach….

  4. Again, the GadolHador is advocating lynch-mob justice against Chareidim. Apparently, the fact that Chareidim draw breath is considered a provocation and a violent act, one that deserves to be met with counter violence from the (Jewish , of course…!) construction workers and bulldozer operators. What else does “careful you don’t end up under a bulldozer”mean? What’s next Gadol? Cement overshoes or a bullet in the kneecap? Why does YWN publish constant incitement to violence?

  5. Atra kadisha is a mafia that send their mobsters to shake down any victims that dont yet “understand” that they need to pay protection money to have their “mashgichim” come and verify that everything is being done “kehalacha”
    They should be deported to Syria.

  6. perhaps one of the tzaddikim can become a meis mitzvah and be buried on the construction site. tizku le’mitzvot 🙂
