Yuval Dayan, who was one of the most charismatic re-repentants of the Breslov Hasidism, gave an interview this weekend, along with his ex-wife, writer and presenter Noa Yaron, to Yedioth Ahronoth - in which he recounts the circumstances of his return to the question and attacks the Haredi community he left. In a post published this evening (Sunday) by singer and media figure Yishai Lapidot - he wrote to Yuval Dayan: Dear Yuval, let's make things right: Half of your life you were secular. The other half you chose to be a very specific kind of dos. That's fine. Right now you've chosen to "continue the search", with a personal separation and a young, new relationship, and that's also completely fine. But hey, all this "happiness" does not give you any legitimacy to smear and slander. Certainly not a positive and legitimate public that many in this country would consider you to represent. It is clear that there is injustice and problems in the Haredi public and among those who have repented. As in any public. Father
For the average secular person, who is now certain that he is well acquainted with the "lying rascal and greedy for money and honor," and the horror stories about "family incest on every Haredi street" [quoting you in the many interviews], it will no longer matter.
You have included, defamed and slandered an entire public. Some of them are your fellow travelers, the other respected you and remained silent even at times when your spiritual path seemed a bit distorted in their eyes [maybe they were right] and if there is one thing that is despicable, unfair and untrue in your conduct over the past two years - it is mainly this. Yuval, you know the truth. No one is angry about your "search", leaving the family is none of our business, certainly not the young partner. But damn, justifying everything by slandering and disparaging others - this is an old and dirty trick that we have all known for several thousand years. Leave us alone Yuval and go search for your life. Quietly if possible. Thank you.
