The days of mourning, the days of Holocaust Remembrance and Remembrance, and even the celebrations of independence are behind us.<\/p>\r\n
Each individual and each group expressed these days in their own way, in central ceremonies and in private communion.<\/p>\r\n
Some celebrated with extended family "on fire" in the forests and parks, some held prayers in the synagogue with Hillel. Others simply enjoyed the day off, and some visited the synagogues for a beautiful institution called "Bar Be Rav." .<\/p>\r\n
\u00a0These days, naturally, also passed with raids and attacks on soldiers, because we cannot forget the strict ones who are not satisfied with a practical commandment, if there is no protest on its side.<\/p>\r\n
We usually encounter these meticulous mitzvot in the synagogue or in the neighborhood. Those who are certain that their prayers were not accepted if they did not warn - "the ones who arouse" - someone about something.<\/p>\r\n
As befits national days of mourning and joy celebrated at the head of every street, the strict ones take to the streets. Some hold a procession precisely at the sound of the siren, to prove to donors abroad that "Israel has yet to go down with the savior" [Hosea 12], and another group, calling itself the "sane Haredim," demonstrate against them to prove to secularists that "we are okay.".<\/span><\/p>\r\n \u00a0Between Haredi and Secular Sikariks<\/strong><\/p>\r\n \u00a0This year I came across demonstrations held by "secular sikhs" in Beit Shemesh against "ultra-Orthodox sikhs", and I was struck by the similarity between them. Both danced with flags to provoke the other. The only difference was in the colors.<\/p>\r\n \u00a0Some mourned and others rejoiced only on opposite days. The ultra-Orthodox extremists held parades on Memorial Day and wrapped themselves in mourning on Independence Day. The secularists did the opposite.<\/p>\r\n \u00a0Even among writers, some praise and some curse.<\/p>\r\n \u00a0To strengthen transparency or to flatter them with flattery, as if someone on either side is influenced by these columns. Why are we so "ultra-Orthodox" about these days and trying to give them more meaning than the secularists themselves?<\/p>\r\n \u00a0Bennett told me 'not to apologize.' And indeed, I thought about continuing my routine without apologizing, but then important people told me that continuing my routine behavior was "blasphemy." On the other hand, in the eyes of secularists, by virtue of being Haredi (and still Hasidic), I of course represent the "sikhriks.".<\/p>\r\n \u00a0I am unable to explain and explain and explain, except for the fact that Bennett has already been mentioned - that he forbade me from apologizing.<\/p>\r\n \u00a0That is why I decided after the Mimouna that I would go underground to fulfill the words of the prophet, "Hide me for almost a moment until the wrath passes.".<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"This year I came across demonstrations held by "secular sikhs" in Beit Shemesh against "ultra-Orthodox sikhs", and I was struck by the similarity between them.
