TOLERATING OTHERS
THE TORAH SAYS
"THE MAN MOSHE WAS VERY HUMBLE "
RASHI EXPLAINS HE FELT VERY LOW ( HE WAS A GREAT RABBI AND TALKED WITH G-D ) WHEN HE SAW HOW GREAT G-D WAS, HE FELT LOW AND HUMBLE AND WAS ABLE TO TOLERATE OTHERS.
THE CHIDUSHEI HARIM TAUGHT THAT FOR A HUMAN BEING HUMBLE IS A VERY HIGH LEVEL AND THIS ONLY TAKES PLACE WHEN YOU REALISE THE GREATNESS OF G-D.
BEING HUMBLE IS A HIGH LEVEL, BUT TOLERATING THE LOWLINESS OF OTHERS IS EVEN A HIGHER LEVEL ( THAT NOT ALL PEOPLE CAN GET TO THE HIGH STANDARD ) OF UNDERSTANDING G-D.
THIS MEANS TO LOVE AND RESPECT YOUR FELLOW JEW, EVEN THOSE WHO ARE NOT ACTING PROPERLY ACCORDING TO YOUR OPINION AND PERCEPTION.
THIS IS SOMETHING I WOULD LIKE FROM ALL THOSE READING MY BLOGS.

Chevron Yeshiva Forces ‘First Year’ Bochurim To Sign Contract Ensuring Good Behavior – Will Not Attend Hafganos
Following a recent incident involving Bochurim of the Chevron Yeshiva, students in the newest year, Va’ad Aleph, have been ordered to personally report to the Rosh Yeshiva’s house and sign a contract committing to good behavior, as a prerequisite for continuing their studies in the Yeshiva. The students have been instructed to report to the Rosh Yeshiva before the end of Bein Hazmanim.
Bechadrei Charedim reported that all of the first year students received a letter stamped with the seal of Maran Hagaon HaRav Chaim Kanievsky, that said: “All students from the first year, who wish to continue on to the second year of studies, must undergo another complete entrance process to continue in the Yeshiva.”
A significant portion of the students received phone calls from an unlisted number that played a message instructing them to appear before the Rosh Yeshiva at his home at specific times prior to the end of the vacation period.
So far, eight of the students, of the 80 who have already appeared before the Rosh Yeshiva, were not accepted for the second year.
Among the items listed in the contract that the students were forced to sign were the conditions that the students daven three times a day with the Yeshiva Minyan, that they attend all Sedarim and Shiurim, and that they will not participate in any protests – frequently organized by the Peleg Yerushalmi.

THIS IS NOT A FRUM WAY
Peleg Vandalism: Protesters Bust into Hall to Disrupt Hamodia Correspondent’s Lecture [VIDEO]
Dozens of Peleg protesters on Monday evening entered the Payis Center in the Ramat Elchanan neighborhood of Bnei Brak after their protest in the city against the arrest and incarceration of talmid Nissan Raada by military police. Their mission was to disrupt a lecture being given by noted journalist Yisrael Katzover, the political/security correspondent for the Hamodia newspaper.
The talmidei yeshivos who listened attentively to the lecture tried to expel the intruders, and a real confrontation developed between the sides as they threw chairs and objects against each other. It was only after the intervention of the police and Yassam special forces that were summoned to the area, was Katzover returned to the hall in the building and permitted to continue his lecture. Those present described the event as a “despicable Chilul Hashem!”
According to the participants, “this is brazenness, to try to interfere with experiential activity for the residents of Bnei Brak, and children from talmidei torah and yeshivos who wished to hear from a military expert about iDF operations in the North and South, but the Peleg hoodlums had other plans.”
It is noted that the edition of HaPeles of the following morning, the Peleg-affiliated newspaper, it was written that the demonstrators protested against “the introduction of improper content through summer events in Bnei Brak.”
According to the newspaper, “this is a shameful attempt to cooperate with government officials who set themselves a goal to change the way of life of the chareidi tzibur and assimilate it in secular life and in bad culture.”

STUPID JEWS KEEP GOING TO SWITZERLAND
Gazan Refugee Attacks Jewish Man on Train in Switzerland, Not Charged With Hate Crime
A Palestinian refugee from the Gaza Strip attacked a Jewish man on a train in Switzerland back in February. The incident was only recently revealed to the public by the Swiss authorities in the last few days.
The Palestinian was not charged with a hate crime but was arrested and sentenced to four months imprisonment for assault. The incident took place inside a train near the city of Lausanne.
The Palestinian man, whose name is Muhammad, threw a shirt at the Jewish man, accosted him, stole his water bottle, his kippah and the book that he was reading and threw them all into the trash. He then stole the Jewish man’s watch, broke his glasses, and continued to punch the Jewish man all over his body.
According to reports in German and Swiss newspapers, Muhammed screamed at the Jewish man, identofied only as Israel: “I want to slit your throat”.
Yonatan Gurfinkle, the Secretary-General of CICAD, an organization that monitors anti-Semitism in Switzerland attacked the decision to not classify the incident as a hate crime in the charges brought against Muhammed. “The details of this case clearly point to the fact that Muhammed attacked the Jewish man because he was wearing a kippah and was identifiable as a Jew. His arrest and subsequent charges do not show that this was a hate crime, which is a very serious offense.”

HARAV MAZUZ
HaRav Mazuz: Stone Which Fell from the Kosel is Due to Reform Jewry
Rosh Yeshivat Kisei Rachamim HaGaon HaRav Meir Mazuz has spoken out about the large stone which recently fell from a southern area of the Kosel, the area which is to be allocated for egalitarian prayer to accommodate Reform and Conservative Jewry. Rav Mazuz calls the event a “hint from Shomayim”.
Rav Mazuz began to address the falling of the stone at the Kosel. “But what happened last week in the place designated for them at the Kosel, a stone fell weighing 100 kilograms, and there was a miracle that none of them were there, except for one woman who stood praying there, and suddenly she sees the stone. At first, they thought the Arabs had thrown it, but then they saw that it had fallen from the wall. At first, they thought it was the new stones they had erected there, but it turned out to be an ancient stone from the days of Herod and it has been there for two thousand years, and they do not know why it fell there, and now they took the stone to research why it fell as to avoid it from occurring again.”
Rav Mazuz said: “But this stone is coming to inform them: You are sinners at the Kosel, you must not do this.” If a Reform worshiper wishes to pray, let him come like all others, for even non-Jews may pray there but they should not create [something] new — a woman reading from a Sefer Torah and wearing tefillin and the like. This is what they are lacking?! Are you like Michal the daughter of Shaul? These are just actors and we must not do this”
“Therefore, the stone did not happen to fall but it was Hashgacha Pratis, a reminder, that there should not be something like this”

NO RESPECT

Thousands of avreichim and talmidei yeshivos affiliated with the Peleg Yerushalmi faction held tefilos on a city street Friday night, tefilos that turned into a showing of support for the Sephardi talmid yeshiva who was arrested last week by the military police for failing to report to an induction center, and is now serving his sentence in a military prison.
In Bnei Brak, supporters of the Peleg davened at the intersection of Rabbi Akiva and Hashomer Streets and in Kiryat Sefer they davened on Chafetz Chayim Street near the Heichal Yitzchak Shul.
In an ad published in the newspaper on erev Shabbos, the public was called by the “Committee to Save the World of Torah” to gather on the erev Shabbos for be “MeKadesh Shem Shomayim and Kabolas Shabbos Kodesh on the streets of a city.”
According to persons who saw the event, the tefilla in Modi’in Illit turned into a real protest outside the beis medrash of the mora d’asra of the city, HaGaon HaRav Meir Kessler Shlita, and when davening ended, they began shouting insults at him.
According to many avreichim who were witness to the spectacle, “The protestors crossed a red line by turning a protest tefilla event into cries and scolding against a Rov and Moreh Halacha, and this crosses all borders”.
