  1. The city of Brest, which was referred to in the article, is better know to the yeshiva world as “Brisk”, the home to the famous, illustrious Soloveitchik family. It’s mind boggling to think of to whom the remains may possibly belong. Among those killed in Brisk were, Rabbi Simcha Zelig Ringer Zatzal—the Brisker dayin, the Brisker rav’s Wife, and several of his children. May their blood be avenged.

  2. I’ve read quite a bit about this story these past couple of weeks,and I’ve yet to see a single statement from the Brisker Rabbonim or their spokesmen stateing their horror or sadness about this find.Do they just not care about the fate of their townspeople who were left behind to perish like this because they were not priveleged members of the Solovaitchik royal family ? Why the deafening silence ? Or am I missing something ?
