Yesterday, chaos erupted at the kever of Rav Shimon Bar Yochai in Meron, as visitors to the site clashed with police. Officers used brutal tactics, beating up Yidden at the kever and arresting several members from the Toldos Avraham Yitzchak community.
The chareidi community and others have spoken out against the police for the strongarmed responses and for beating protestors, including one particular severe beat-down, seen in the video below.
The victim was taken to Rambam Hospital for treatment.
What Lufthansa allegedly did, pales in comparison to what was done in this video. These chilonim are rashaim arurim. And don’t give me that kiruv crap about how great these nazi like cops are. [They’re not Frum “yet”.] We have to bend over backwards, twist ourselves into pretzels, and use wild creative imagination in order to be dan licaf zchus these wicked dogs. No, one is never allowed to criticize a self hating irreligious pork eating michalel Shabbos.
Thank you for putting into words the rage I felt when I saw this.
This, my friends, is zionism.
Excellent.
Of course actions like this of the Zionist Nazi Police (many of whom are not even Jewish, as it happens, never mind “not yet frum”) make Lufthansa’s ugly behavior the other day seem like a joke by comparison.
Police abuse their power wherever they are. They are the powerful with “authority” and they take advantage of it.
To all my brethren that will comment justifying this action, Would this guys death at the hands of the police change your opinion? or do you only condemn the police when the person is african? Blm or All lives matter?
American cops are not nearly as abusive as that chose your comment wisely
Then the police are upset when they’re called NAZIs.
Throw the police and soldiers out of Meron. Isn’t it bad enough they murdered 45 people? How many more do they want to murder?
It started with killing 45 religious Jews. Now they’re destroying buildings in Meron “for security purposes” but in reality because they want to make Meron an attraction for chilonim and non-Jews.
These Israeli Police officers are no longer Jewish IMO, but a bunch of Nazi thugs. Chareidim in EY have to fight back. The Erev Rav government took over Meron as attempt to destroy Yiddishkeit.
It is not only this government in particular that is the Erev Rav. The Zionists are miZera Amaleik, according to the Chofetz Chaim himself as said by Rav Elchonon Wasserman HY”D.
1) Like George Floyd, this guy did improper things before the police got to him.
2) Unlike George Floyd, he emerged in decent shape.
What exactly was improper? Prayer at the Kever from Rabbi Shimon?
Secondly, he wasn’t killed but he was hospitalized, which is anything but being in decent shape. You better pray for him because if he’s hospitalized when and in what shape will he come home?
it’s not a mitzvah to be Dan lkaf zechus a mechallel Shabbos. Especially when you see these outrageously violent acts. to compare holy Yid to George floyd is abhorrent.
What’s your proof that he did improper things? You call visiting a holy site deserving of getting half killed?
Okay. You claim he did something wrong. What did he do wrong? What was the necessity to choke him? You can’t just throw out a claim. Bring proof.
Um, emerged in good shape? Did you see the video? Maybe you’d like to be in his shoes? Ye, I know, you’re a wonderful guy you wouldn’t of done whatever this guy might’ve done… Frankly I wouldn’t either, but face it these police are VICIOUS THUGS!
Are u sane no human is allowed to be treated like that
The Israeli police are out of control! They caused the whole tragic disaster last year on Lag B’Omer when they blocked the exit. It’s time they got some religious and sensitive police officers in Meron!
“The Israeli police are out of control” TRUE
” They caused the whole tragic disaster last year on Lag B’Omer when they blocked the exit” DEBUNKED as far as i know.
Was not debunked! There are videos to prove is was a DELIBERATE closure!
Who debunked it? When? Did they allow any outside detectives investigated it?
To the best of my knowledge all investigations were hushed, to cover up what their criminal incompetence & negligence in closing one of the main exit ramps. Some 20000 ppl were trying to exit through it that night! Who closes the bottom of the exit without blocking the top? What were they waiting for once hundreds of ppl started gathering at the bottom of the blocked exit??? Someone needed a bloody crisis to exploit for their political and financial gain. For many years Meron was the biggest event in the country!
I hope someone has the brains to hang a huge plaque from this all over Israel. Let the world see what the police in Israel are like.
These cops are not Jews: they are Druze or other moderate arabs and that’s how they get ahead. This beating is unacceptable except only to commenter #6 who is likely himself not a Jew either.
These bad-cops need to be fired and prosecuted. They’re out of control.
These cops are not Jews: they are Druze or other moderate arabs and that’s how they get ahead. This beating is unacceptable except only to commenter #6 who is likely himself not a Jew either. No Jew can see the above and justify it! No rational person can! It is senseless brutality and overzealous policing however you look at it! Only a ben Yishmael or a ben Eisav can do that.
So I ask you when should a frum person feel comfortable to call the Mishtara ?
To ” enough with sensationalism”
Unlike George Floyd, this person was NOT A CAREER CRIMINAL. And most likely did NOTHING wrong. You’d be happy if he was murdered?
No one who complies with police gets beaten, this guy was not arrested for offering people to put on tefiliin…
Shame on you Matzav for joining the squad and the radical left who always look at one side of the story and accuse the police.
I seriously hope you personally get beaten and abused by police, please God.
That’s not true in the case of the Zionist Police. They beat up an innocent man just because they felt like it, as reported a month or two ago.
Sick way of thinking how can u justify such a beating
Yeah , a chance of rabid Israel hating chevra to scream and curse.
Hey , why weren’t these boys in yeshiva learning ? Why are they vandalizing ? You guys are soooo crum and frummer , but you have no problem with violent destruction of property . Why did they vandalize ?
They are allowed to go to meron for a break of learning! What makes you think they were vandalizing property!!! I am far from an israel hater, but the police brutality is inexcusable
Reg Israeli police activity. Unreal that it’s still 3rd world country in 2022
the problem today seems to be
נהיה ככל הגוים
I HOPE THIS IS SHOWN AT THE NEXT UN HUMAN RIGHTS COUNCIL
its time for us diapora jewry to get world leaders involved so they can stop
Lufthansa crime is gold compared to this, I really wish dans deals makes an investigation on this crime and gets it out to the global media, and America and all countries should condemn this. I’m rethinking my Israel trip plans after this.
For all the ignoramuses here, whos connection to, and knowledge of, EY extends about as far as spending the requisite y’t every couple years and have a 90 year old aunt living in har nof, let me set you straight. I’ve been living here (jlem) for 13 years. The cops here are animals. They’ll beat the garbage out of you for no reason, use force for no reason, abuse and torture you for no reason, and are 10000% out of control. There’s no inyan of dan likaf zechus on such people, lihalachah ulimaaseh. Most should be fired, some should probably get hit by a truck
No no no. When a chiloni assaults you, you must bend over backwards, twist yourself into a pretzel, and use wild creative imagination to be dan licaf zchus the beast. By beating you to a pulp, that’s how they’re showing love. It’s the same for the molesters. We must be dan licaf zchus. Otherwise the lashon hora police will come after you. “Not Frum yet yet yet yet yet yet”. If you allow these filthy lowlife scum of the earth chilonim to beat you mercilessly, then they’ll become Frum.
הוי מתפלל בשלומה של מלכות, שאלמלא מוראה, איש את רעהו חיים בלעו
Doing your own thing, and thinking you know best leads to anarchy.
If you want to live in a civilised society and be treated like adults, then start behaving like adults.
