whenever i see a picture of Litzman as “depututy minister of health” i really feel bad for him. i imagine him standing with medical experts and professors who discuss medical issues of which he has no clue.
Shoin, another article. We why don’t the police just arrest them all, and let’s move on already. Is this all we are going to read about for the rest of our lives?
Nonsense, Litzman must be a secret secularist at heart and is trying falsely blame our holy kanoim. You can tell from the picture how he is shaking the hand of the chiloni. But even if they did threaten to kill him, whatever happened to free speech? It’s not like they called him a zonah or asked him to sit in the back of the bus.
Just to clarify and not to mix up 2 things, Litzman is a Gerrer chusid who in the butei Warsaw dispute the gerrers are fighting with so called ”sikrikim”, on the other hand in the bus separation feud etc. the gerrer chasidim are the biggest activists in enforcing the old takanos of keeping kedusha and sepapration.
He’s referring rto the personal fight of the Ger’s with the residents of batai Varsha, he calls them sikrikis and they call him sikriki..
I call them Jewish Nazis.
