The discussion about the God-shattering scandal that has been taking place in Shas for the past two weeks doesn't let up for a moment. Wherever you go, people are talking, taking sides, slandering. Most of them rightly so.<\/p>\r\n
You read - articles, talkbacks and all kinds of writers, there are those who reject and pour fire and brimstone - I would not want to meet them in a dark alley during this time - who hurt the pain of the Maran and tongues of fire come out of their ears.<\/p>\r\n
There are those who know how to phrase things much more compassionately \u2013 they share the pain of Aryeh \u2013 or the suffering and humiliation of Eli \u2013 it is truly touching.<\/p>\r\n
But amidst all the words and frontal discourse \u2013 I was looking for something else \u2013 a different approach: innovate something, you've already said it all. .<\/p>\r\n
Let's take Aryeh and Eli \u2013 both of whom start with the letter A and will be labeled with that letter later \u2013 and I'm not here to bother you with gematria \u2013 or to try to harness the language of the Shin Bet to my writing. .<\/p>\r\n
With your permission, here is a quote from a conversation that took place while I was sitting at the barber (but it could also come from the mikveh \u2013 or from the line at the bank).<\/p>\r\n
In life, every barber is for himself with the scissors and the client, as you know, only for a living, of course he has nothing against his colleague, God forbid. Another short description and we got to the point: the discussion was heated from all positions, it answered this \u2013 a real fraternity both together. I have never seen such brotherhood in a barbershop in my life.<\/p>\r\n
So like this: "I don't love A, but I hate A after what he did," end of quote. My book didn't say that, the other book said that, the one whose name I don't even know. These books can be nice.<\/p>\r\n
I tried to explain my position there, the one I'm trying to lay out for you now. I said it eloquently and properly, after all, I've been thinking about it for several weeks.<\/p>\r\n
The response was: The hum was light, polite, even forgiving towards me. In short, they didn't understand what I wanted at all: Either you're with A or you're with A?!<\/p>\r\n
So everyone is in a collapse of a dam of frustrations and nerves \u2013 Aryeh or Eli \u2013 one of them must be put to the stake in the city square \u2013 and if possible for heaven's sake, for the honor of the deceased, and more clich\u00e9s.<\/p>\r\n
No one remembers \u2013 that there is a tragedy here of two better or less good people \u2013 but people! Human beings, families behind them.<\/p>\r\n
The first was the head of a movement and brought it victories of 17 seats. One of the greatest achievements of all time, but he was fired and sent to prison immediately after the brilliant achievement. And let's not forget the promise...<\/p>\r\n
The second accepted the rule at the behest of his master \u2013 he did as he was commanded all along the way \u2013 he did not deviate to the right or left \u2013 over time, he got used to the position and power and it was perfectly fine \u2013 and then they told him \u2013 vacate your position.<\/p>\r\n
More than evil and treachery \u2013 I find here a human tragedy in all its complexity. The one in which one always comes at the expense of the other. Anyone who knows elected officials in political parties \u2013 knows that they do not need such a degree of circumstantiality to act against the other.<\/p>\r\n
To those slanderers, I just say: A little humanity won't hurt.<\/p>\r\n
Oh, and for those who know how to pity \u2013 only on one side \u2013 you're fine. Everyone knows who you got your last job from \u2013 and to whom you owe empathy \u2013 just don't think we're all excited about you.<\/p>\r\n
At least I have reason to feel sorry for them.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"More than evil and treachery, there is a human tragedy here \u2022 To the slanderers, we should say: A little humanity won't hurt you \u2022 To those who feel sorry for one of the parties wholeheartedly, it is worth mentioning: We know very well who you got your last job from","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[138],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-123796","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-138"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
