Ben Gvir / Extreme Rabbis

This Itamar [Isomor??] Ben Gvir is getting a lot of criticism. I suspect that a lot of it is just jealousy. Who wouldn't want to be the son of a Gvir??!! 

I mean you have all that money without even having to work for it!!! I bless your children and mine that they should be the children of a Gvir. 

--------

On that note, from the media: 

Far-right MK Itamar Ben Gvir has selected the son of a prominent national-religious family for the No. 4 slot on his Otzma Yehudit party’s electoral slate.

Rabbi Amichai Eliyahu, who heads the Organization of Community Rabbis, a rabbinical group, is the grandson of Rabbi Mordechai Eliyahu, a former chief Sephardic rabbi of Israel, and the son of Rabbi Shmuel Eliyahu, the rabbi of Safed and a leading national-religious figure.

Eliyahu’s father has been known for controversial statements and rulings on Jewish law, including one that forbade the rental or sale of Jewish-owned property in the northern city of Safed to Arabs. He has also criticized the Reform movement, the LGBT community, and women serving in IDF combat units.

-----------------

WOW!!! So radical!!! He paskened that the איסור דאורייתא of לא תחנם actually applies!!! Next who knows - he might pasken that we have to keep Shabbos and Kosher!!! 

He also criticized a movement that has defined itself as completely outside of Jewish tradition, men who have sexual relations with other men, women who "marry" other women, and women placing themselves in an environment that runs completely counter to even the most basic standards of Jewish modesty. 

EXTREEEEMMMEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!😂😂 

Mussar Haskel: Secular news outlets are a million miles away from a basic appreciation of authentic Jewish values.

Meanwhile, spy-for-Israel Jonathan Pollard ruled out running for the Knesset with Ben Gvir on Sunday after a report said that the far-right leader was considering offering him a spot.

“It’s important to me to contribute to the nation of Israel, but my place isn’t in the Knesset. I think I’ve already suffered enough,” Pollard was quoted as saying.

WELL SAID!!! Yes, Yonatan, you have already suffered enough!!!
