Hatred feeds on itself! Between the recent publicity
in the New yorker magazine and tonights rumble- Kiryas Yoel seem like the spot tobe. The Idiotic rabbis worry about the buckles on the womens shoes but not the hatred they spread that culminates in this evenings Chilul Hashem.
A bunch of (worse) gansters from West Side Story!Chassidisahe hooliganer! Your zaidis from Hungary made Willamsburg a place of kidusha for Satmar. U guys should shave your payis and beards and move to Africa where u belong with the laws of the Jungle! Your children will soon shoot each other infollowing your footsteps and learn from your middos toivos! Don't be mshaddich with Satmar
if u are a torah abiding Jew. Ever wonder why so many Satmar girls are marrying out of their chassidus? because they see this character of sinah in most young eligible Satmar boys. Great Job Satmar. U are reaping the benefits of your seeding!

What do u expect when they are taught sinas chinom and are the original foundationof the Neturei Karta and numerous anti-Israel rhetoric.
That is what always happen to extreme ideologies -they are ruined from those they nourished from within. Did anyone really not expect this sooner or later from the viloent past of the Satmar community and the "silence of their leaders"?

What Happened was that The Yoenger Brother R' Zalmen went home from his Shul on Garfield Road and the entourage passed by the Main Shul in KJ which belongs to the older Brother R'Aron, while passing by the Zalmen follower's went on the stairs of the Big Shul and Instigated a fight with the people who were in the Big Shul, when Hatzala was called for help the first arriving car was vandalized and the windows were broken out which then escalated a fight.

There's no doubt in anyone's mind that this needs to stop. Naturally you'll find some wild kids in Satmar who love action and don't realize they are only harming themselves.
There's another problem here, obvious after reading some of the above posts. One reader says: "Satmar, Bobov, get a life. While the Eidelleh Klosenborger Tzadik, can't contain his happiness with the recent Satmar fight. Now first off, the Litvishe are unfortunately not any better, just look at Ponivez Bnei Brak. Neither are the Klozenborgers, as is widely know what they did to their own Rov in Yerushalayim.
So the problem is universal, and it doesn't discriminate between different Chasidishe sects, or Litvish for that matter. We all need to better ourselves and teach our children - since the Chadurim are obviously not teaching them - that Violence is NEVER an option.
Perhaps by instilling some Ahavas Yisroel into our youth [and ourselves], we'll be Mekarev the Geulah Shleimuh, Umein/Amen...

They don't teach them english and secular subjects and for sure they don't teach them morals or bein odom lchaveiro but the all we "geshoirine" are apikorsim! This is from the inability to discuss and respect anothers veiws either from within or without. Look at what the chassidishe kids did last night in Ein Gedi-setting fires in the preserve against rules and beat up the rangers.
Same response just different MO! these apples fall from same tree. As the Belzer Rebbe said when Jordan fought Syrian, "let them both be Matzliach and kill each other in Kiryas Yoel"!

"Joseph Says: Rather than banning Lipa concerts, let the "Gedolim" ban Chassidus. That would bring Moshiach a lot quicker,"
For your info. Your Gedoilim already Banned Chasiddus! some 250 years ago! and if you believe the Litvish are any better you either naive, ignorant, arrogant, or all of the above.
We ALL need to look within ourselves and better ourselves.
What I'd like to know is this: Do you think if there was a fight in front of BMG in Lakewood, Vos is Neias would publish it? Hmmm...?
And you all jump at the opportunity to dance on the grave of Satmar's wrongdoings as if you're all perfect.
I can just see Mr. Vos Is Neias sitting in his office and laughing his guts out all the way to the bank while manipulating a bunch of... you know what's.
Naturally this comment will disappear within 5 minutes since it doesn't call for a "Gedoilim" ban on Chasidus...

Zalman's followers got mad that nobody is looking on their side, so they decided to make some action in front of the big KY Shul (leaded by Satmara Rabbe Shlita).

Let the so-called "Rebbes" actually LEAD in the way of Torah and Mitzvos and teach their idiotic followers not to fight and make a Chillul Hashem.

It almost seems that We Jews "need" acts of anti-semitism to join us together for the common good, and get us to close ranks, and unite. Maybe that is the purpose of anti-semitism, which is a sad commentary on todays "in-fighting". What horrible existential threat to our people has to appear on the scene before we will put aside our petty differences and concentrate on the things that unite us instead of divide.

GEVALT !!! Ribbono Shel Olam. This is a disaster in the making. Why cant the brothers stay away from each other's turf. Aronis attacked first by raiding Williamsburg and creating competing mosdos. Did they really expect no retaliation, especially after the Zalis keep winning lawsuit after lawsuit? The ONLY answer is to have a restraining order keeping Aron and his henchmen in Orange County and Zali and his fellows in Williamsburg. Let them be forced to stay apart and even transfer populations so that those who support their Rebbe live with him.
