Etan's disappearance revealed that the systems in place were inadequate to deal with missing children.

David Framowitz as a youngster

There were no systems in place to protect children in Jewish schools, and no talk of putting any system in place, until David Framowitz stepped forward. David, he should live and be well and see nachas from his family, must never be left out of the conversation when we talk about child sex-abuse in the Jewish community. Etan Patz's unfortunate fate led law enforcement to view "missing children" as not your typical crime. In fact, any crime against children, is so horrific and so beyond the pale, that part of being human, is to be able to understand that! Therefore any state legislature that does not pass laws to protect its most vulnerable, should be voted out of office and the media should focus on covering these stories -- and publicize public servants' names who vote against such legislation. Any member of any clergy that gets in the way of passing such laws, are just as guilty as the people committing these heinous crimes against children, regardless of their hiding behind some "religious" doctrine they pulled out of their "you know where".  No one should or will forget Etan's story, and no one should forget David Framowitz's story. Different tragedies; but never forget the vile and criminal element in all communities, "religious" or otherwise. The Jewish community unfortunately, is not to be excluded as a people not capable of committing great crimes against children. No one knows this better than David Framowitz.

A MUST READ IN ITS ENTIRETY:

"Our children are smarter and better educated and more worldly" than previous generations about the dangers, but Lowery agrees there has been a trade-off. Knowing the brutality out there "instilled a sense of vulnerability in all of us ... it changes us as a society ... We're not as trusting as we used to be, but we need to be educated of the dangers out there." And, he adds, what the case of Etan shows to parents and victims is that no one forgets. "We're going to continue to look for children."



May 25 is National Missing Children's Day. Etan Patz, its poster child, remains missing.

After 33 years, a man has stepped forward to confess to strangling Patz. Proof will be another matter, as the former grocery store worker has not been able to provide the body nor has he given a motive. As for the confession's timing, a realtor who rented the suspect his apartment told the Star Ledger that maintenance people heard he was battling cancer, but nothing more has been substantiated.

When Etan vanished May 25, 1979, he was said to be the first missing child featured on a milk carton; his father Stan Patz, a professional photographer, supplied the photo. Etan's face was the first to appear on a Times Square electronic billboard six years later. In an era of highly publicized kidnappings — among them Adam Walsh, whose 1981 disappearance prompted his father to host "America's Most Wanted" — the campaign convinced President Ronald Reagan to call May 25 National Missing Children's Day. A year later, Congress set up the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children.

How Etan changed the nation's laws: Before this case, how law enforcement dealt with the missing varied.

Etan's disappearance revealed that the systems in place were inadequate to deal with missing children. Schools did not alert parents if children did not show up. Depending on the jurisdiction, a police response could take as long as 24 to 72 hours after a child's disappearance. According to the National Centre for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC), in 76% of missing cases where the child is abducted by a non-family member and killed, the murder occurs within the first three hours of the kidnapping. Furthermore, there was little communication between police departments; if a child was taken over city or state lines, the trail was often lost. (April 28, The Economist)

The wrenching horror of a missing or murdered child fueled other changes: The 1989 kidnapping of 11-year-old Jacob Wetterling led to the federal sex offender registry, although these days many know such legislation as Megan's Law, in honor of Megan Kanka, killed by her neighbor in 1994. (Wetterling remains missing.)

The 1996 murder of 9-year-old Texas girl Amber Hagerman triggered the AMBER alerts. Her case remains unsolved, but the alerts have improved clearance rates of finding children to 97% — in 1984, the odds had been 62%.

 The numbers: Stranger abductions are high-profile partly because they're extremely rare: About 110-200 are snatched, out of 600,000-800,000 children that go missing each year.

The statistic of a child murder happening within three hours of an abduction can be a panicking, but misleading one, that comes from a 1993 Washington project. Of 600 murders studied, 76% had been killed within three hours. "It suggests if we don't find them in the first 24 hours, we should give up hope," NCMEC executive director Bob Lowery tells Yahoo!, but points out that cases like Jaycee Dugard and Elizabeth Smart clearly offer hope.

What that timeline should do is instill a sense of urgency and the importance of alerting police immediately.

In nearly 60 percent of the cases studied, more than two hours passed between the time someone realized the child was missing and the time police were notified (2006 Child Abduction Study, Washington State Office of the Attorney).

In the case of California teen Sierra LaMar, the high school didn't notify the parents of her absenteeism until 11 hours later — typical procedure even in the high-tech San Francisco Bay Area. (The school has since
changed that policy.)

Child ID app, FBI.com

 How to protect your children and how your children can protect themselves: In an age where stolen iPhones deliver their own locations, it's tempting to look to technology — from smart phones and GPS tracking devices to social media — as a precaution. NCMEC doesn't recommend gadgets, but Lowery says, "One key piece is a current image of the child. The FBI has an iPhone app for parents that we do endorse." The Child ID app helps parents keep current data, including a photograph. (No information is shared with the government unless parents enable permission.)

The most effective tool, Lowery says, is the spirit of the kids themselves. "Children who are more assertive and willing to bring attention, who are willing to say 'no' to an adult figure, are the ones less likely to be successfully abducted." More ways to protect minors and report abuse:

•Missing children hotline: NCMEC 24-hour hotline (800-THE-LOST or 800-843-5678). The site also has an online Push to Talk system.

•Cybertipline receives tips on sexually exploited minors (1-800-843-5678)

 Parents do worry about the flipside, that generations have grown up overprotected and fearful. That milk-carton campaign partly ended because it scared kids.

Missing children appeals showed up on milk cartons across the nation throughout the '80s, but by the end of the decade, the program began to fade out, primarily due to concerns over its efficacy and complaints by pediatricians that the photos frightened young children. "People weren't really paying attention to the images on the milk cartons," the center's Bob Lowery told the San Jose Mercury News. "The only ones paying attention were younger children enjoying their cereal." (April 20, Time)

"Our children are smarter and better educated and more worldly" than previous generations about the dangers, but Lowery agrees there has been a trade-off. Knowing the brutality out there "instilled a sense of vulnerability in all of us ... it changes us as a society ... We're not as trusting as we used to be, but we need to be educated of the dangers out there." And, he adds, what the case of Etan shows to parents and victims is that no one forgets. "We're going to continue to look for children."

Half blind Chometz LePesach Krohn wants to "ban" all blogs, put bloggers "cherem" and not allow comments on news-sites like YWN and VIN! Has he forgotten he lives in the USA not Meah Shearim? Then, only his motormouth would dominate the airwaves since Chasidim can't speak English in any case and none of the scandals about his brother in law Ephraim Brycks and the shenanigans of his rabbi Dovid posul Kohn would be known...as that old witch said as she was melting "what a world"!

Ephraim Wachsman's pathetic rant, he wants to "stop" the Internet.

Hey Ephie, just say no, no one is forcing anyone to go online!

Make yourself and your yeshivas and rebbes a lot more appealing and honest so that no kids and young folks get bored and disillusioned with you, and then they will not go to the Internet.

Until then, gei klap kop in vant (knock your head against the wall)...oh yeah, how about you speak out against the mafia tactics of your neighbor the Skver Rebbe who sent a thug to burn down the house of someone who didn't want to daven in the "main" shull and almost mureredc whole family?

Or denounce Leib Tropper who lives/d in your Monsey midst, but was brought down thanks to the Internet!:

Matisyahu Pickwick Salomon said...

From the UOJ files, about the lead-fighter against electricity, sorry, Internet, who wants to stop science from developing:

"The Life and Times of Matisyahu Pickwick Salomon 2 said...(October 19, 2011)

Rabbi Matisyahu Salomon was recruited from ye merry olde England to come and be the mashgiach ruchani (spiritual adviser) at the Beth Medrash Gevoha yeshiva in Lakewood, Nu Joisy, in the good old USA. While the name "NEW Jersey" was once named by ye olde English settlers in America for their beloved "[OLD] Jersey" in ye merry olde England, but really today they are light years away from each other, vehameivin yavin.

Joisy today is home to the rich and famous on their estates and to many a Mafia family as well as to many African-Americans. Into this hurly-burly of one of the USA's roughest states Rabbi Salomon was brought to somehow or other be the "spiritual adviser" to 6000 students with about half being married.

Now why couldn't the guys who run and own the Lakewood yeshiva deal with the many social etc etc etc problems they have on their own? Good question. The answer is VERY simple: They couldn't give a crap. To them it's Lakewood Inc., one huge economic enterprise. Gone are the days when granddaddy Aron Kotler lived on bread and water and inspired a handful of Holocaust survivor ghosts and a few willing Yankees, not more than a handful of true great Jews who did not know from modernity. Those days are long gone. Gone too are the days of Pappy Schneur Kotler who fought to limit enrollment to normal proportions and was driven to an early death by the pressures of fundraising.

Well today's crew of Kotlers that runs the place are no dummies. They have flung open the doors WIDE open, especially to the rich spoiled brat Hungarian kids from Boro Park and turned the place into a materialistic ubber-fest. Sure there are families that are poor, but today's Kotlers are CEOs and want big mullah, they have no time for touchy-feely outreach stuff. They are cold-blooded, period.

But they are not stupid.

So they hire a very fuzzy-wuzzy warm person from ye merry olde England by the name of Matisyahu Salomon to make sure that he is there to feel the pain of the Lakewood mob, because the young Turk Kotlers only know one thing, how much money is in their many bank accounts at the end of the day.

Don't envy dear old Rabbi Salomon, he's in a tough spot all right. But the worst part is that his ye stodgy olde English slip is always showing, like when he says that sexual abuse of kids does not exist because in Victorian England where he grew up, they have yet to admit that humans are born with sexual organs let alone sexual impulses that can and often do go very wrong, even in the Lakewood yeshiva community and yeshivisha velt . (Gasp! Cough, cough. Double gasp!)

Rabbi Tendler's Legacy of Fear. Part 1 of 3. said...

Rabbi Tendler's Legacy of Fear. Part 1 of 3.

I got an anonymous package from Baltimore that contained only one item - a green-cover booklet that just came out entitled "לזכר נשמת מורינו הרב יוסף טנדלר זצוק"ל זכותו יגן עלינו ועל כל ישראל - A Torah Perspective In The Life And Times Of Rav Yosef Tendler." It has been written by יצחק יהודה פייעראייזען - Yitzchok Yehudah Feuereisen, an affiliate of the Ner Israel Rabbinical College of Baltimore (NIRC) who together with rabbi Tendler destroyed my life. The booklet describes the greatness of rabbi Joseph Tendler, the late head of the NIRC mechina (high school) and one of the elders of the notorious Tendler clan, how he did everything לכתחילה (in the best possible manner) and how God had him die on the "Trees' New Year" (Shvat 15, February 8, 2012) to signify that rabbi Tendler took care of many trees (students). Feuereisen even passionately writes (page 14): "Yes, הקב"ה כביכול (apparently The Holy Blessed One) Himself is saying עדות (testimony) that as far as Rav Tendler is concerned it truly can be said שלא חסר בעולמו כלום ("nothing is lacking in his universe" - a part of the blessing applying to God)." I suspect that Feuereisen is the one who sent me his booklet as yet another Ner Israel stabbing in the back.

Listen how Feuereisen endorses rabbi Tendler's modus operandi (pages 7-9): "If a תלמיד (student) acted improperly he (rabbi Tendler) admonished him in a way that was לכתחילה (in the best possible manner), meaning that he didn't beat around the bush. He got straight to the point. He wanted the תלמיד (student) to understand what he had done wrong so as to enable him to properly rectify his ways. This can only occur if done לכתחילה (in the best possible manner) - by getting to the core of the problem. At times this required harsh מוסר (lessons) and sanctions. Perhaps, it required sending the תלמיד (student) away for a period of time, or perhaps another type of punishment so the תלמיד (student) would be able to understand the severity of his unworthy deed... Those who feared Rav Tendler because of his authority were very much misguided... A former תלמיד (student) who had a son in the מכינה (high school) once came to visit the ישיבה (yeshiva). He told Rav Tendler that when he was in the מכינה (high school), he was afraid of him. This former תלמיד (student), now in his forties, continued and said, "I am still afraid of you." ... His (rabbi Tendler's) תכלית (intention) was to place the fear of שמים (Heavens) into his תלמידים (students)."

I want to say the truth because I like many others I know saw different rabbi Tendler. People feared him because there could be no dialog with him. His decisions were final and seemingly (only of course to his victims) illogical. And there was no fear of Heavens - rabbi Tendler treated differently boys from rich or from poor families - he knew on what his staff's salary depended. He himself couldn't care less because he ran a multimillion dollar milk business "Pride of the Farm" and nobody dared to start up with him. For rabbi Tendler the standard way to solve problems was to get rid of the person who had problems.

A typical scene was his "handshake." He would approach a student, tower his six-feet-tall body over him and take the boy's tiny hand into both of his arms. The student would turn red and then turn white (the Talmud compares this blushing with murdering) already anticipating something horrible. Rabbi Tendler was a master of humiliation. No wonder rabbi Aaron Kotler had told him to never teach kids, the fact which Tendlers skillfully hushed up.

Rabbi Tendler's Legacy of Fear. Part 2 of 3.

I once saw rabbi Tendler's pregnant neighbor unload groceries for him. Her oldest son had apparently done something wrong because as she hobbled with rabbi Tendler's heavy bags she was tweeting unstoppably about how her son loved the high school and was not such a bad boy. Rabbi Tendler with his arms folded on his chest was standing near the trunk and smiling at her. She could not walk fast so it took her a few trips to unload the trunk. That entire time rabbi Tendler moved not an inch and didn't speak a word. Listen to Feuereisen again (page 12): "He (rabbi Tendler) had the majesty, everyone respected him. He had the greatness and power, and the beauty of it all was that he knew how to use these qualities. All for the sake of שמים (Heavens). Yes, when Rav Tendler stepped foot into בית מדרש גבוה דלייקווד (Lakewood Great Yeshiva) and met Rav Aaron (Kotler), he stepped into גן עדן (paradise) and never left."

Feuereisen finishes his booklet with a prayer not to God but to rabbi Tendler, a masterpiece of hypocrisy that everyone must read: "It is because of this (greatness) that we feel it is fitting and appropriate to ask מורינו הרב יוסף בן הרב יצחק אייזיק זצוק"ל זי"ע ועכי"א (our teacher rabbi Joseph the son of rabbi Yitzchok-Isaac, may the memory of this righteous and holy man be blessed and his merit protect us and all of the Jewish nation) to be מליץ יושר (defender) to his Rebbetzin (wife) of fifty four years... for his wonderful, beautiful outstanding children - his six sons and seven sons-in-law... seven daughters and six daughters-in-law... to his outstanding staff, the Rebbeim (teachers) of the מכינה (high school)... to the wonderful and beautiful community of Baltimore... to his most precious gems, his מכינה (high school)... May he take our תפילות (prayers) and be מעורר רחמים (arouse mercy) before the כסא הכבוד (throne of glory); that in his זכות (merit) we should be sent בשורות טובות (good tidings) and ישועות ונחמות (salvations and consolations) that כלל ישראל (Jewish nation) needs to be זוכה (deserving) not only to a קבלת התורה (receiving of the Torah) but also to a קבלת פנים (reception) of משיח בן דוד צדקנו במהירה בימינו אמן ואמן (Messiah, the son of David our righteous speedily in our days, amen)."

One reason Feuereisen prays to rabbi Tendler while the "wonderful and beautiful community of Baltimore" is silent to his cynical idolatry is that his kids study at NIRC high school and his oldest son graduates it this year.

But there is more to it. For readers to understand that, I will now describe my own tragedy. I had to do some work for rabbi Yitzchok Adler, one of my teachers at NIRC. I deeply respected rabbi Adler. In afternoons he was often seen preparing his lectures. Hebrew books were lying all around him. He also wore a gartul, a special belt put on by chassidim for prayers to separate the heart from the lower "unclean" organs and he looked very erudite and religious. I was deeply disturbed to discover that rabbi Adler's browser history was loaded with adult site links. Then I made a mistake. I shared my knowledge with Yitzchok Feuereisen.

Let me tell you more about Yitzchok - Yitzchak - Feuereisen. He was a former NIRC student who always had throngs of students on Shabbos and he also gave free baked goods, soda and liquor to NIRC boys. He was very friendly and outgoing and loved openly schmoozing and gossiping about yeshiva rabbis whom he usually depicted as his rivals. I was silly not to realize that if his chats were genuine yeshiva would never have tolerated such a man on campus. So I blurted out to him about rabbi Adler's computer.

Rabbi Tendler's Legacy of Fear. Part 3 of 3.

The next day rabbi Tendler came over to me, gave me his infamous handshake and told me that I must immediately leave NIRC (till then I was regarded as a very good student). I tried to protest my innocence. Rabbi Tendler smiled and said softly, "If you do not leave the yeshiva, your father will have to say kaddish (prayer for a dead person)." I got very frightened and went to New York. I couldn't get into any yeshiva because they would call NIRC and after a talk with rabbi Tendler or other rabbis decline my application. My whole life was forever destroyed.

I did not know then that Yitzchok Feuereisen was a paid informer employee of the yeshiva who managed to destroy many lives. I have lately found out that when rabbis realized that his age and unmarried status were too inappropriate to be around kids (his sexual adventures are another narrative), they had him marry a woman from Australia. That woman Hannah Vivien seemed to appear from nowhere. I know that none of her announced relatives either came to the wedding or ever visited the US. I was also told that sometimes her Australian accent could oddly disappear. I was then told that she was really a gentile American born paramedic who made a career at the FBI. I can believe that - knowing that Feuereisen got national attention in 2009 when he as a journalist "Robert" Feuereisen tried to get Obama's autograph. How could this uneducated man turn into a journalist and what is more get into the White House easily bypassing all screenings if not for powerful forces behind him?

In his booklet Feuereisen declares (page 11): "If we don't have the fear of חמץ (unleavened bread) on פסח (Passover), then we will not have the fear of חס ושלום (God forbid) losing our אמונה in 'ה (faith in God). This is exactly the type of fear that Rav Tendler wanted to instill in his תלמידים (students)..."

The truth is, there is still chametz, the unleavened bread, in the hearts and minds of many NIRC inhabitants. Often their computers are loaded with porn and they abuse and molest children in the real world and then, like Feuereisen they talk about the faith in God which they neither had nor ever will have. Sadly I can share the truth about these people only on the Internet which they have wisely prohibited. Not long ago Baltimore NIRC leader rabbi Aaron Feldman even traveled to New York to be among the elders who banned the Internet because of its "lecherousness."

Their religious foundations must be very weak if they can be easily washed away by pictures of naked animals having sex! But these are the foundations of FEAR that rabbis Tendler, Feldman and other furry-beardy leaders of the Citi Field Asifa and their menials taught them. These foundations SHOULD BE washed away! What people must realize (not evil leaders of course) is the power of the Truth that the Internet brings. The Internet is simply a tool. Only people who use it for evil see it as evil and ban it - for others. But the Internet's colossal tide will wash them away. Their man-made "religion" will disappear torn down by the power of the Truth that the Internet has given us - "speedily in our days" using the terminology of Feuereisen's hypocritical booklet.

I agree with the author of "Rabbi Tendler's Legacy of Fear". They threw me out of NER like him and I had done nothing wrong. I am still afraid of them. As far as Feuereisen, he is just another crook who makes living murdering others. I know him, he is just another gungster that's all.

What a crap Feuereisen wrote. "Defender," "May he take our prayers." Does he understand that Tendler is not Hashem?

Thanks for telling the truth about Tendler. I also remember his dreadful handshake. I hear that Feuereisen's booklet is now lying in every Baltimore shul, so your article UOJ is just in time. I also always suspected that his wife's Australian accent is fake. Is not it funny that Ner Israel just came out with a new issue of "Dialog" where rabbi Aharon Feldman has an article that permits Metzitzah Bepeh? Feuereisen has a long way to go...

The Baltimore Jewish Life has just released a new idiocy by Yitzchok (Yitz) Feuereisen about the late rav Efraim Eisenberg (http://baltimorejewishlife.com/news/news-detail.php?SECTION_ID=1&ARTICLE_ID=60803). I was repeatedly molested by Feuereisen when I was a student at Ner Israel in Baltimore. He was afraid that I would tell the truth, so he slandered me, and I was kicked out of the yeshiva. So, Feuereisen writes, "May he [rav Efraim Eisenberg] be a מליץ יושר to the members of the Hanhala." A bootlicker, who merited to live next to the yeshiva for all the crimes he committed for them (Google Feuereisen and Ner Israel). People wrote online about Robert (Yitzchok) Feuereisen sneaking into the White House to get Obama's signature, but nobody mentioned the real estate schemes he and his family have been involved in — both in New York and Baltimore. Feuereisen is fantastically rich and incredibly corrupt. Both of these facts allow him to boldly publish such ridiculous neo-Cabalistic crap: "פנים has the numerical value of 180 which is half of the 360 degrees that make up a complete circle. Double, פנים equals the 360 degrees of a full circle. This was the relationship between משה and הקב"ה; it was a complete circle lacking nothing [פנים אל פנים]... Even when he [rav Efraim Eisenberg] spoke softly it was אז בקול רעש גדול. We see this from the ראשי תיבות of his name א"ז (אפרים זלמן)... The gematria of מזבח is 57, the same gematria of the word גדלך; “your greatness,” referring to הקב"ה... רב אפרים’s life seemed to revolve around the number 57. He came to the ישיבה in 1957, part of his phone number was 57, and the year he was נפטר was 5762... Perhaps that is why הקב"ה chose ט"ז סיון, the 16th of Sivan, for יציאת נשמה since the gematria of גבוה, elevated, is 16. רב אפרים was נפטר at the age of 62 in the year 5762. When הקב"ה created the world, he declared after six days of creation, טוב מאד. The words טוב מאד has a gematria of 62."

Yitzchok Robert Feuereisen (יצחק יהודה פייעראייזען) & associates of the Baltimore Ner Israel put out a new schizophrenic booklet. This time — about Rabbi Shmuel HaLevi Wosner: http://pdfhost.net/index.php?Action=DownloadFile&id=6b7b9378dcce1af2007f329039d6e154. Some citations from that (Yom Kip)purim Torah:

[p. 8 (ח)]: The word מלוה [lender] has a מספר, a numerical value of 81. It is the same מספר as כסא [throne] — “המלך היושב על כסא” [the King sitting on the throne]. When הקב״ה [G-d] sees us conducting ourselves as a מלוה with others then it is not only המלך היושב על כסא, but it is also “רם ונשא” — high and lofty. [p. 13 (יג)]: If one looks at the name לובלינר [Lubliner] (if spelled this way,) which, of course, refers to הרב מאיר שפירא [Rabbi Meir Shapiro], and one looks at the name of Rav Wosner, spelled וואזנר, it can be noticed that the last two letters from each form the word, נר [candle]. It can truly be said that the נר of the לובלינר רב lit the נר of Rav Wosner, thus allowing both נרות to light up the world. [p. 15 (טו)]: Rav Wosner dealt with his תלמידים [students] and all of ישראל [Israel] through the aspect of קדשי קלים [offerings of lesser holiness], which gave him the ability to relate to everyone. He taught ישראל that they had it in them to restore themselves to the level of קדשי קדשים [most holy offerings] just like the קרבן פסח [Pascal sacrifice]. If one fulfills the מצוה [commandment] of אכילת קרבן פסח [eating the Pascal sacrifice], he is considered a שר, an officer, of ה׳ [G-d]. The מספר of the word קרבן פסח adds up to 500. That is the מספר of שר. One can truly say that Rav Wosner was not only a שר of הקב״ה [G-d], but that he was truly a שר התורה [Torah]. The fact that Rav Wosner was נפטר [died] on ליל שמורים [Passover night], the זמן [time] of the קרבן פסח, signifies this point… The מספר of פרו ורבו [be fruitful and multiply] is interestingly, also equal to 500, which, as stated above, is equal to שר. The fact that Rav Wosner was נפטר on ליל פסח signifies that he truly joined the league of his Rebbe in the בחינה [aspect] of קדשי קדשים [most holy offerings] and became a true שר התורה. [p. 16 (טז)]: The מספר of מצה [matzah] equals 135. Multiplied by two for the two מצות we get 270, which is רע [evil]… It seems paradoxical that in the very מצה that reminds us of יציאת מצרים [Exodus] and fortifies our אמונה in ה׳ [faith], there should be כוחות הרע [evil forces]… it is not that the מצה itself that has the onus of being רע, but rather the מצה has the strength to bring the רע together in one place and to contain it… The name וואזנר [Wosner] has a מספר of 270. This is not to suggest, חס ושלום, that Rav Wosner was רע… This gave him the ability to contain and control the כוחות הרע to the point where it had no influence upon him. [p. 17 (יז)]: We see that the השגחה [Providence] had it that Rav Wosner was born in 1913. In the number 1913 we find 913, the מספר of בראשית [Genesis]. Yes, Rav Wosner had within in him the כח [power] of בראשית. [p. 18 (יח)]: Rav Wosner was נפטר [died] well into his 103rd year of life. The מספר of מנחה [offering] is 103.

Esther Katz, the director and coordinator of the Domestic Violence Program at OHEL Children's Home and Family Services, is a sister of Robert (Yitzchak) Feuereisen. I was happily married with kids until Esther Katz (who is an NLP hypnotherapist) befriended my wife and made her believe our marriage was a "failure" and that I was "abusing" my wife, while my wife happened to be "a victim of circumstance" living an "oppressed life." OHEL and Esther Katz received millions of dollars in grants secured for them by such crooks as Anthony Weiner, Sheldon Silver, and Vito Fossella – and had to show their generous paychecks were deserved, so they made my wife divorce me. These criminals destroyed my life and lives of countless other men and women.

When I learned at Ner Israel Rabbinical College (NIRC), folks talked about Yitzchok Feuereisen's poor girlfriend, who suddenly died ahead of their wedding day (and - forgive the naivete of yeshiva teenagers - grief-stricken YF vowed to never get married).

There was a buzz that she was poisoned, but I didn't pay much attention to it then. Later, however, a friend of mine - loathed by NIRC elders - told me that he had vomited blood after a Saturday meal at Feuereisen's home and had to be rushed to the hospital.

Yitzchok Feuereisen always swanked about his almost eerie luck and wealth. His family had million-dollar real estate holdings in New York, and he, together with his family members Armin and Floretta Feuereisen, acquired the same in Baltimore through the help of the Mafioso Ted Cavacos (later jailed for multiple crimes).

I wont be surprised if tomorrow Yitzchok Feuereisen (or Robert, as others correctly pointed out) is apprehended as a rich fraud and a treacherous murderer!

Bluzhever (PART 2) said...

However, there is something more important in that pamphlet — his absolute hypocrisy. Feuereisen discusses the "terrible מידה [trait]" of slanderous speech and then remarks: "On the other hand עין טובה [good eye] is when one shows tolerance, when one is משמח [rejoices] with someone else’s success and is מחזק [strengthens] that person. He gives him self confidence" (p. 6). Fine, but this we hear from the man who has spent his entire life slandering and swindling others and destroying their lives. Feuereisen further asserts: "It is our מסורה [tradition] from the time of קבלת התורה [Covenant at Sinai] that is keeping us going" (pp. 16-17). Good, but this is said by the man who lauds the late rabbi Israel Belsky (a defender of every molester and crook) as one of the Torah "giants" of the generation (p. 11), who quotes his own father Gad Feuereisen (גד פייעראייזען) — unblushingly appointing him as "the legendary שמש [attendant] of the Bluzhever בית המדרש [synagogue] and personal גבאי [aide of] the Bluzhever Rebbe as well as the previous Bluzhever Rebbe" (p. 15) — but "forgets" to mention that his father, Herr Gustav Feuereisen, served with the German Wehrmacht on the eastern front (in Ukraine) during the Holocaust when the Bluzhever Rebbe was in the Nazi concentration camp. (Note that Feuereisen named the concentration camp in Lower Saxony where the Bluzhever Rebbe had been as "Bergan-Belson" and "Bergan-Belsen" instead of "Bergen-Belsen" [p. 10].) Robert Feuereisen must study the issue of hypocrisy in Job 8:13. And if he decides to meditate upon the numerical value of 813, I'll give him a hint — it equals ארור אתה [cursed are you] in Genesis that God pronounced on the serpent (3:14) and on Cain (4:11).

RABBI ISRAEL “YISROEL” BELSKY OF YITZCHOCK “BOB” FEUEREISEN [PART 1 OF 4]

A new booklet about rabbi Israel “Yisroel” Belsky has appeared in this world. It is compiled by Yitzchock “Bob” Feuereisen of the Ner Israel Rabbinical College of Baltimore. This year Bob outdid himself: Instead of his usual ten+ pages, he produced forty, spending roughly two thousand bucks to print the booklets. At least two thousand to print his lunacy, folks! (But don’t you worry, he plans to cash in on Shlomo Rechnitz, Belsky’s billionaire son-in-law.) And, of course, he couldn’t do it without blundering out a cover error (אלתר in place of לאלתר). The booklet is available here: http://pdfhost.net/index.php?Action=DownloadFile&id=2df74148a87b87e1b8cae793c667c612 (Thanks, DiViDeByZeR0!) The last page has a cool photo of Feuereisen tanzen mit Baltimore leading rabbi Moshe Heinemann and local pious men.

All through the booklet Feuereisen extols Belsky as a “leader,” “genius,” “true עבד ה'‏ [servant of G-d],” “true עניו [humble man],” “אדם השלם [perfect man],” “giant in the spiritual sense,” “physical giant,” “holy, pure and caring נשמה [soul],” “wellspring of חזוק [support] and inspiration,” “individual who possessed great intelligence,” etc. According to Bob, Belsky “took nothing for himself and gave so much, to so many,” did “his best to rectify the injustice,” “always looked out for the needs of others,” and had “empathy towards everyone.” In short, “Rav Belsky was the "רבו אלופו ומידעו" [Avos 6:3], Rebbe, guide, and ultimate friend of all of כלל ישראל [Jewish nation]” (p. 13, 33).

Criticizing Feuereisen is silly because with each new line he piles up more and more idiocy, hypocrisy, and falsehood. It is also dangerous: Try telling him that many of his statements border on heresy, such as the one that three out of four Jewish New Years mentioned by the Sages “do not need to be called ראשי שנים [New Years], but our תנאים [Sages] felt it is an opportunity to be מעורר רחמים [arouse mercy] during the year when דרשו ה'‏ [seeking G-d] is not as relevant” (p. 9), and fifteen minutes later he’ll report on you, and your future may be seriously compromised. As Bob finger-wags his readers, “If one does not take advantage of this day, he loses not only the day, but the year and perhaps his entire future” (p. 6).

When Feuereisen does his usual outrageous invented cabalistic crap, it only initially looks ludicrous: “When משה רבינו [Moses our master] said "מי לה' אלי" [whoever is for G-d join me], he also invoked מדת רחמים [attribute of mercy] by being מעורר- awakening the greatness of the עקידה [binding]. The word "אלי" [to me] also contains the word "איל"- ram, which reminds us of the איל that was stuck in the thicket and was used as a תמורה- exchange for יצחק [Isaac]” (p. 7); “It is noteworthy משה רבינו uses the word "אלי" three times.... By repeating the word "אלי" three times, משה רבינו once again invoked the עקידה....‎ משה רבינו felt the need to remind הקב"ה [G-d] four times about the עקידה through the word אלי in order to protect and defend and to show his חשיבות [esteem] for בני ישראל [Jewish nation].... The ארבעה ראשי שנים [four New Years] are a רמז [hint] to the four times משה רבינו says אלי referring to the איל in order to be מעורר רחמים‎” (p. 8-9); “The message is clear. הקב"ה [G-d] is telling משה רבינו throughout the forty years in the מדבר [desert] you became that איל אחד [one ram], you became the symbol of the עקידה to be מעורר רחמים for כלל ישראל” (p. 11); “The פרשה [chapter] of the נשיאים [princes] has eighty nine פסוקים [verses] that is the מספר [number] of the word גוף [body].… The חיה [wild animal] does not show סימנים [signs] of אמונה [faith]” (p. 17); “The idea is that every Jew must be fit להקרבה [to be sacrificed], to be placed on the מזבח [altar].... After removing the word, "חיה" from the word "חגיגה" [festival], we are left with the two letters of "ג" that form the word "גג" which means roof.... He can now feel as if he has a roof over his head and does not have to worry about his next meal” (p. 18-19); “Why do people lose things? It is not because they are careless, it is because הקב"ה [G-d] wants the person to think about the loss of the בית המקדש [temple]” (p. 24); “The word קרניו [its horns] without the "ב" has the מספר of 366, which is the מספר of חשבון, accountability” (p. 32); “If one would count the words from "ויחי" [Genesis 1:31] until "אשר ברא אלקים לעשות" [Genesis 2:3], he would find there are forty one words, which is the same מספר [number] of the word "איל" [ram]” (p. 35).

לדור ודור נגיד גדלך said...

Baltimore Ner Israel Bobby Feuereisen has put out a new pamphlet he has partly plagiarized from Jewish magazines - about Rabbi Yitzchak Dov Koppelman, the Rosh yeshiva of Lucerne (Switzerland). As usual it is replete with Bobby's own harebrained expositions: "The word סנה [bush] if rearranged can be turned into נס ה'‏ [God's miracle]." (p. 4) "What happens after he completes קריאת שמע [prayer], where does his קבלת עול [yoke] take him to? It wears off [!!!] until the next time he says קריאת שמע." (p. 8) "The word רצפה [floor] has a מספר [value] of 375 which is also the מספר of the word השלם, complete." (p. 11) "It is interesting to note that the word "עלו" in "עלו לשם חובה," the word עול in עול מלכות שמים, the word פעלו without the letter "פ" [!!!], the word עול in "ואין עול," and the word חמה added twice for מימינים ומשמאלם all have a מספר of 106. Perhaps it was for this [?] הקב"ה [God] granted Rav Koppelman with 106 years in this world." (p. 10) - UOJ once said about Rabbi Koppelman that "to assume anything other than teva (natural) for people of that age, is wrong."

Feuereisen intentionally doesn't say Rabbi Koppelman's yeshiva was much a correctional facility for troublesome youths that was shut down 4 years after his death for financial and scandalous reasons. Of course he doesn't know and doesn't care about the man he chose for his pamphlet: His Koppelman was born in "Ichanov" instead of Kharkov (p. 6), grew up in "a generation of knowledge where the average Jew knew ש"ס [Talmud] and שולחן ערוך [Law]" (p. 8 - another perverted Artscroll lie!), lived in "Brookly" (p. 7) and was proud of his "רבעים" (p.5-8 - this wittingly misspelled word for "teachers" has a homosexual undertone known to each yeshiva student - רבעני לאונסי; רובע ונרבע). The climax of the pamphlet is Bobby's original discourse (p. 9): "There is a major problem with people in כלל ישראל [Jewish nation]. They daven, they learn, they put on תפילין, they are שומר שבת, still in all their עבודה [worship] at times fall short of pure לשמה [selflessness] ....... They fall short of fulfilling their עבודה and responsibility in this world. They still owe הקב"ה [God]." This fake virtue is taught by the very guy who glorified such evildoers as Tendler and Belsky and whose own moral state (see the posts above) is a far cry from stellar. Feuereisen is the one who has "a major problem" and still owes an apology to the Jewish nation!!!

Rabbi Abraham Pam — who lived in the shadow of the great Yisroel Belsky — was an old Russianized shorty who dabbled in Communist kids from the former USSR. That was the position of Yitzchak Feuereisen of Baltimore Ner Israel. To my surprise, this Rosh Hashana he published a flattering booklet about Rabbi Pam — titled "כהניך ילבשו צדק / Let Your Priests be Clothed with Righteousness — A תורה Perspective on the Life and Times of Rav אברהם יעקב הכהן Pam."

Feuereisen did not even bother reading Artscroll biographies "Rav Pam" or "Beloved by All" by Shimon Finkelman. In his usual arrogant style, he merely plagiarized his booklet off the Wikipedia article and the links therein giving nobody their due credits. "Not everyone can handle being an object of notice," wrote Feuereisen on p. 11. Obviously, he regards himself as a dominating human being above any rebuke who, of course, can handle being an object of notice. Although this Ner Israel booklet can be found in every Baltimore synagogue, it lacks any written rabbinic approbation — as, in fact, all Feuereisen's pamphlets. Yet Feuereisen claims that success does not need human approval (p. 11) because the fact that a person is "so מצליח (successful) in his עבודה (service), shows he had the full הסכמה (approbation) of בורא עולם (Creator)." For this reason, Feuereisen is so divinely confident about what Rabbi Pam "knew" (p. 9) or "felt" (p. 10) and even insanely assumed that Rabbi Pam sat "in the middle of the בית מדרש (yeshiva)" to become "בטל ברוב (neutralized in the larger quantity)!"

Now I will give you a broader idea of Feuereisen's own mad addenda to the plagiarized material: p. 8 — "In 1943, Rav Pam married שרה (Sarah) Balmuth. They were married for fifty eight years. The number fifty eight is the מספר (number) of נח (rest) which means pleasant" (Feuereisen additionally confused חן with נח); p. 14 — "This כח (power) of מורה נבוכים (a guide to the perplexed) and chartering out a map alludes to Rav Pam’s name. If one rearranges the letters in the name PAM, it forms the word MAP"; p. 15 — "The word “פאר” (glory) has a מספר (number) of 281. If one rearranges the number to 182 it becomes the מספר of the name יעקב (Jacob). The beauty of this message is the beauty of Rav Pam."

Nonetheless, the true theme of the booklet is given on p. 6: "We, too, must constantly ask the question before doing or saying anything or taking action, “הייטב בעיני ה'‏, would הקב"ה approve?”" Really, would He approve plagiarism, mockery and arrogance of Feuereisen's booklets? So if you wonder why Orthodox Jews rape, fornicate, defraud, swindle, or just lie — while zealously praying three times a day to some unseeable "god" (Google Feuereisen) — here is the answer: As long as their crooked society approves such regular practice in hypocrisy (condemned even in Isaiah 32:6) as Feuereisen's recurrent pamphlets, its members are being trained that quackery and false piety are fully compatible with Judaism.

The reason Yitzchok Feuereisen wrote a pamphlet about rabbi Nosson Meir Wachtfogel is clear: His son Shmuel Feuereisen has been a student in Lakewood, and the brochure will be used to assure him preferable choices in finding a desirable shidduch (i.e., getting married) within Orthodox ruling elites (Feuereisen made millions from real estate). That's why Yitzchok wrote (p. 14): "[Rabbi Wachtfogel] wanted that they [Lakewood yeshiva students] should be זוכה [honored] to the full thrust and כח [force] of סייעתה דשמיה [help of Heaven] by feeling that through their למוד התורה [Torah learning] and דביקת בה'‏ [attachment to God], they are working for the שכינה [Shechinah] to make certain that the שכינה does not remove itself from the כסא הכבוד [Throne of Glory]." In other words, his heavyset youngster is sweating away so that the Divine Presence and God's Throne somehow stay together. Why don't you promulgate, Yitzchok, the real reason your older kids cannot stay in Baltimore, and the type of obscene relations that make them skip town?

For years, the proud Baltimore community and its leaders have been allowing Yitzchok (Robert) Feuereisen to publish and publicly distribute all kinds of lies and heresy. Of course, he may put out whatever he wishes as long as his money schemes allow for that. But don't you think, gals and guys, that each of his new pamphlets adds to your personal corruption and to the destruction of the Torah values you pay lip service to uphold?

FEUEREISEN & WACHTFOGEL [PART 1 OF 3]

A few days ago, Yitzchok (Robert) Feuereisen of Ner Israel Rabbinical College of Baltimore published his new inanity: "אחכה לו בכל יום שיבא [I await Messiah every day] — A תורה [Torah] perspective on the life and times of Rav נתן מאיר [Nosson Meir] Wachtfogel זצ"ל‎ — משגיח רוחני דבית מדרש גבוה דלייקוואד [Lakewood yeshiva spiritual curator]." It's really a waste of time to criticize the distinctive manner of Feuereisen's free publications: For example, throughout the text of this latest pamphlet he consistently misspelled סייעתה דשמיה (of course, the correct form is סייעתא דשמיא) — "help of Heaven." Since he graduated from NIRC and, naturally, doesn't know Hebrew, such silly booboos as מלכמת יון (p. 2), וואכטפיוגל (p. 4 — he contrived to misspell even the last name of the person he was writing about), תלמיד תורה (p. 5), "every תלמוד," "each תלמוד" (p. 10), or ופה לבשמים (p. 12) are very common. Moreover, Feuereisen does not even know the geography he wrote about: "Lithuanian town of Kuliar" (p. 4), "South Fallsberg" (p. 14).

Not only is the phrase "help of Heaven" misspelled — it is clear the Heavens have not been guiding Feuereisen who in his brazen heretic confidence believes that everything he writes must be true. For example, it has been a universal knowledge that "Throne of God / Glory" is termed "Divine Presence" (or Shechinah in Hebrew) — browse, for instance, the writings of such distinguished authorities as Saadiah Gaon (10th century — "וכן הכסא… ועליה אמרו החכמים שכינה") or Moshe Cordovero (16th century — "כי השכינה נקרא כסא הכבוד"). Now listen to Feuereisen's blasphemy (p. 3 — the original boldface shown below): "[I]t was the שכינה [Shechinah] returning to the כסא הכבוד [Throne of Glory] on כ"ה כסלו‎ [25th of Kislev].… The lack of כסא הכבוד effects everyone.… When the שכינה removes itself from the כסא הכבוד, all the rules change because we in בני ישראל [Jewish nation] allowed the rules of הקב"ה [God] to change.… If the שכינה would have been resting on the כסא הכבוד at the time of the חטא העגל [golden calf episode], משה רבינו [Moses] could not have broken the לוחות [Tablets of the Covenant]." It is like saying that sometimes the Almighty is not the Omniscient.

Yitzchok Feuereisen, who views himself as one of the Illuminati, once again could not restrain his "talent" at numerology (p. 3): "When הקב"ה [God] said “ועשו לי” ["make Me {a sanctuary}" — Exodus 25:8], the word “לי” has a מספר [number] of 40. הקב"ה was letting בני ישראל [Jewish nation] know He has no intention of living together in the same house with בני ישראל for the next 40 years in the מדבר [desert].… [T]he שכינה [Shechinah] felt insulted and betrayed. It could no longer live together with בני ישראל." Later Feuereisen added another folly (p. 6): "And whenever the שכינה returns to the כסא הכבוד [Throne of Glory] it is considered בריאת העולם [creation of the world]."

FEUEREISEN & WACHTFOGEL [PART 2 OF 3] said...

FEUEREISEN & WACHTFOGEL [PART 2 OF 3]

Besides an intimate acquaintance with the whereabouts and feelings of the Divine Presence, Yitzchok Feuereisen also claims to know the Divine Will (p. 2): "The reason הקב"ה [God] created the world on כ"ה אלול‎ [25th of Elul] was because כ"ה is the רשאי טיבות [another misspelling: ראשי תבות], abbreviation of כסא הכבוד [Throne of Glory]." While picking and choosing fitting abbreviations, Feuereisen forgets that כ"ה often stands for כופר הכל (complete apostate) — Yitzchok's true identity. That's why he concocts such upbeat trash (p. 12): "The purpose of the קטרת [incense] in the בית המקדש [Temple] was to bring a “breath of fresh air” into the world. To make the צבור [public] feel good about themselves. If everyone is in a good mood they can better serve ה'‏ [God]."

Since Yitzchok Feuereisen knows the Will of God, it comes as no surprise that he knows which holiness level should be ascribed to the rabbis of old: Thus, in the middle of the same paragraph (p. 5), the rabbis Yeruchem Levovitz and Yechezkel Levenstein were assigned the designation ז"ל (of blessed memory), while Shimon Shkop and Boruch Ber Leibowitz — זצוק"ל (righteous and holy man of blessed memory). Feuereisen also claimed (p. 7) that for rabbi Wachtfogel the founding of the Lakewood yeshiva "was truly considered a בריאת העולם [creation of the world]" (he even boldfaced the text), and that during the Yom Kippur War rabbi Wachtfogel's devotees "reached a level of רואים את הקולות [saw the thunderings], a מדרגה [level] of קבלת התורה [acceptance of the Torah]" (p. 8). Moreover, in his usual perverted manner, Yitzchok Feuereisen praised rabbi Wachtfogel for saying that the murder of Israeli athletes at the 1972 Munich Olympics took place because "they were willing to publicly transgress שבת קודש [Holy Sabbath]" (p. 8).

At the end of his drivel, Yitzchok Feuereisen wrote (p. 13): "[O]ne can take the word כסלו [Kislev] and divide it into two words — כס and לו‎. כס, which should be read as כסא [Throne], but without the “א” and the לו, which has a מספר [number] of 36. The message is that רב נתן [rabbi Wachtfogel] watched over the כסא of רב אהרן [rabbi Aharon Kotler] for 36 years after the פטירה [death] of רב אהרן.… Protecting the כסא of רב אהרן would protect the כסא of the שכינה [Shechinah]." This is another fine example of Feuereisen's pure and community-endorsed apostasy.

The newest Rosh Hashanah brochure by Baltimore NIRC Yitzchok (Robert) Feuereisen has been dedicated "in memory of" the dean of Jerusalem Mir Yeshiva rabbi Nosson Tzvi Finkel. This year Feuereisen introduced many novel spellings ("therefor," "new how to," "inner most," "with in," etc.) and largely disregarded the conventional English punctuation. Yet he finally abstained from calculating preposterous values of Hebrew words. However, such prudence did not save him from many "thoughtful" reflections. Thus, he argued that "spending seventeen years in prison made him [Joseph] an elevated person" (p.9) and that rabbi Finkel "was determined not to let down" God (p.13). Moreover, according to Feuereisen, rabbi Finkel "was a champion when it came to the needs of the בני הישיבה (students). It would not faze him to tell a visiting Father that his son needs a knew hat" (p.14). Perhaps such "knew hat" guided Feuereisen when he wrote the following idiocy: "In the word 'הגידה' [tell] lies the word 'גיד' [sinew]. The two ה'‏s in the word הגידה is a רמז –hint to the word הנשה [vein] which also has two ה's. <…> It was this מעשה [act] that elevated יעקב [Jacob] to his highest מדרגה [level] <…> If one takes the word 'הנשה' and rearranges the letter’s one will find the word 'השנה' as in ראש השנה [New Year]. For יעקב אבינו [Jacob] the episode of the גיד הנשה [sinew of the vein] was a ראש השנה for himself" (pp.6-8). Feuereisen then used this lunacy to arrogantly say about rabbi Finkel: "[T]his debilitating [Parkinson's] disease became his ראש השנה [New Year] for it changed his entire צורה [shape]" (p.13; Feuereisen later tried to connect rabbi Finkel's death in November with the future building of the Jerusalem Temple during the same season — pp.20-21). And to madly add: "[H]e aspired to a level that he himself could declare 'אני יוסף' [I am Joseph] 'אני קהלת' [I am Ecclesiastes] 'אני נתן צבי' [I am Nosson Tzvi]" (p.19). However, the main subject of Feuereisen's work is a bit different. He summarized it on its greenish cover (p.1): The verse in Samuel 2 (7:3), which in his translation reads: "Whatever is in your heart go and do, for ה'‏ [God] is with you." In all Hebrew editions, commentators of that verse understood the danger within the word "whatever": Some limited it to the building of the Temple, others — to great holy men (as king David). Not so Feuereisen in his Tony Robbins style: "When one feels that ה' עמך [God is with you] all walls and barriers fall away and disappear" (p.17). That is a perverted approach alien to Judaism: Even the great rabbi Johanan ben Zakai (Berachos 28b) was weeping — being uncertain about his fate despite any "feelings." But Feuereisen gives us a simple life hack: FEEL GOOD! As for him, he is certainly feeling good due to the upcoming wedding of Elisheva Sterman from Chicago and his dissolute son Gad (named after Gad's grandfather Herr Gustav Feuereisen who served with the German Wehrmacht in Ukraine during the Holocaust). The Stermans are "into" Mir Yeshiva, and that's the reason for Feuereisen's newest "Torah" brochure. "It is the תורה [Torah] that gives creditability an[d] legitimacy to the flowers, gardens and mountains and all other creations for the benefit of mankind. Without the תורה all these creations are הבל [worthless]" (p.16). Did Yitzchok Feuereisen learn his simple fascist Weltanschauung at his pedophile Ner Israel Rabbinical College? Certainly, but he could have gotten that philosophy at any corrupt yeshiva. Just smile, feel good, and booboo: "כתיבה וחתימה טוב" (p.21).

BALTIMORE FEUEREISEN ON RABBI SHTEINMAN (PART 1 OF 2) said...

Not long ago, a Ner Israel Rabbinical College dormitory (Baltimore) had a picture of the late rabbi Aharon Yehuda Leib Shteinman hanging next to its bathroom entrance. The photo, originally pinned up by one of rabbi Moshe Eisemann’s relatives, hung there for years before NIRC bosses decided to install security cameras to film their horny boys rushing to fap. The chiefs did not want rabbi Shteinman’s bathroom picture to get on tape (and perhaps consequently jeopardize their office), so it got removed. Yitzchok Yehudah (Robert) Feuereisen, a scamp who spied on everyone at NIRC, passed by that picture hundreds of times but, of course, did nothing to stop the disgrace. Now he came out with a new blue cover booklet, devoted to… rabbi Shteinman! Yet nobody should suspect Feuereisen of hallowing that great Israeli rabbi or somehow repenting. Feuereisen never cared about rabbi Shteinman. Thus, he also did not care that the Psalm 121:4 was readily misquoted on his cover (שומר > שמר), and that (on that very cover) he initially referred to rabbi Shteinman as זצוק"ל (righteous and holy man of blessed memory) but then degraded him to זצ"ל (omitting the holiness). Naturally, throughout the pamphlet he also never cared about any grammar or spelling rules (and even made his hallmark homosexual רבעים Freudian slip).
Nevertheless, all such flaws have almost no importance when we examine his core constructs.

Feuereisen wrote: “[I]dea of digging a בור (pit) is nothing new to us. The אבות הקדושים [Patriarchs] dug בורות. {…} The other בור that one need not be afraid of was the בור that יוסף הצדיק [righteous Joseph] was thrown into. For it too was a בור רוחני, a spiritual בור” (p. 2). Apparently, that lunacy wasn’t enough for him, so he proceeded to make another groundless claim that pits mentioned in the Talmud (Bava Kama), which measure nine or ten handbreadths, represent, in fact, spiritual difficulties and added the following daring asininity: “A בור י'‏ [ten handbreadths’ pit] exceeds even מט' שערי טומאה‎ [49 Gates of Uncleanliness]” (p. 4). Feuereisen went on to rebuke “those in בני ישראל [Jewish nation] who get too excited and become too inspired with the culture of the אומת העולם [other nations] which is הבל הבלים הכל הבל [vanity of vanities, all is vanity]… to the point where they dig themselves into a בור ט'‏ [nine handbreadths’ pit]” (p. 6) and then advised his readers to study everything about rabbi Shteinman in “Reb Aharon Leib” published by venal Art$croll.

BALTIMORE FEUEREISEN ON RABBI SHTEINMAN (PART 2 OF 2) said...

Strange indeed to hear someone criticize the contemporary gentile culture to the point of calling it vanity, when that person himself has been a ruthless snitch and slumlord living in luxury. Similarly, when saying that rabbi Shteinman was against expelling boys from schools, Feuereisen even boldfaced the phrase “Rav Shteinman would call that גאווה [conceit]. One cannot build תורה [Torah] with גאווה” (p. 8). Amazing to hear these lofty words from the man who must be held responsible for expelling dozens of adolescent students from NIRC! Feuereisen also said: “הקב"ה [God] made it that the נחשים ועקרבים [snakes and scorpions], the יצר הרע [evil inclination] did not recognize יוסף [Joseph] as a בן תורה [religious man]. If to them יוסף was not a בן תורה then he is no threat to them and was therefore left alone” (p. 3). Nevertheless, using Feuereisen’s methodology, we can say that it is good to be forced out of NIRC because that shows its “snakes and scorpions” recognized their victim as a devout Jew!

Feuereisen’s rabbi Shteinman (much like Art$croll’s) is an imaginary fake character: “If יצחק אבינו [Isaac] would have been allowed to go into חוץ לארץ [abroad], we would have observed him doing mundane things. Perhaps working for someone…. a diminished status…. An עלה [sanctified] cannot work for anyone, he belongs totally to ה'‏ [God]” (p. 12). Feuereisen makes it clear: If you work for someone, you are “diminished.” As a slumlord who never works, he, at least, practices what he preaches. Still, Feuereisen would not be Feuereisen without his usual cabbalistic crap: “[Everyone] recognized in him [rabbi Shteinman] that he is truly a person who has in him מים [water]. He is a יש בו מים [has water within]” (p. 11); “Rav Shteinman lived his full life of 104 years which is the מספר [number] of the word נחמו. Rav Shteinman was a true comfort for all of כלל ישראל [Israel]” (p. 13; the number 104 also corresponds to wicked and corrupt סדם [Sodom], but Feuereisen picks only the meanings suiting his exegesis). Finally (p. 14), he ended his gobbledygook by saying that God made rabbi Shteinman die on Chanukah eve to let him light holiday candles “בפמליה של מעלה” (in the Heavenly entourage).

In his occult calculations, Yitzchok Yehudah (Robert) Feuereisen never mentions that the number of his נר ישראל [Ner Israel Rabbinical College] is 791 – the same as מקום השקר [place of falsity]. Pedophile teachers and homophile students, Mafia leadership and corrupt discipleship – this is the legacy of NIRC that helped shape the contemporary American Jewish-Orthodox landscape. Hence, “the Torah” they pretended to “receive” this past Shavuot is nothing more than an Art$croll softcover wrapped in a condom peppered with Feuereisen’s ten handbreadths’ holes.

BALTIMORE FEUEREISEN ON RABBI SLANGER (PART 1 OF 3) said...

Rabbi Judah Loew of Prague (Maharal, 16th century) wrote in the 4th chapter of his acclaimed work Derech Chaim that repentance = change (כי התשובה הוא השנוי). One may think that Ner Israel of Baltimore sycophant Yitzchok Robert Feuereisen went through a massive change: In the pages of his new pamphlet, the “tough Israeli schmuck” (as he had called the late rabbi Zvi Dov Slanger) suddenly became זצוק"ל – “righteous and holy man of blessed memory”! The truth, however, is that nothing has changed because Feuereisen has never cared about his biographees. For the nonce, he invented a mumbo jumbo for Slanger: מורינן (on the cover) and מוריון (p. 10) instead of מורינו (“our teacher”). As usual, throughout the pamphlet Feuereisen scattered his senseless sevenfold sigil: “be coming” for becoming (p. 3), “its self” for itself (p. 5), “internal priesthood” for eternal priesthood (p. 6), “a life of true חיים” (p. 11; חיים = “life”) joined by Feuereisen’s hallmark gay רבעים (for “rabbis”) Freudian slip (p. 12; also, see his new רעבעצין lesbian variation on p. 17) and his routine fascist renaming of Bergen-Belsen death camp (p. 10).

As always, the core of the pamphlet is harebrained heresy and truisms. Feuereisen’s impromptu paganism results in the following idiotic statements: “We want the ארבע רשויות‎ [4 Sabbath domains] so that we can advance and penetrate the שבעה רקיעים‎ [7 heavens] and reach the כסא הכבוד [throne of glory]. The word לפום [in proportion] has a מספר [number] of 156 which is the same as אהל מועד [Tent of Meeting]” (p. 4), “The world has a saying ‘Every person needs his space’ and that space is his ד' אמות‎ [4 cubits].… פרעה [pharaoh] could not penetrate into their [Jewish] ד' אמות” (pp. 8-9). In the spirit of Dale Carnegie’s How to Win Friends and Influence People, Feuereisen declares that on Rosh Hashana a Jew must examine what worked “to enhance his image among his peers and society at large” and which habits and deeds “benefited him so that he should advance and raise himself above the mundane” (p. 1). He continues with a cliché: “If one does know the difference between good and bad, he would then come to better appreciate the good” (p. 2). Then Feuereisen claims that progress to “a higher level” is unachievable without “restrictions” (pp. 2, 5), harangues that any need for “permission” hints at “restriction” (p. 3), and declares that Moses “entered a spiritual life [!] of restrictions” (p. 6). Obviously, he ignores the noted Talmudic rule that the power of permissibility always prevails (כח דהיתרא עדיף – Eiruvin 72b, etc.):

If Feuereisen himself had been restricted, he would never have achieved his “higher level” snitching position at Ner Israel, and his newlywed son Gad (now living in Lakewood) would never have used their slumlord money to pose online as a “singer and recording artist” (to date, with only 5 recordings since 2014). Feuereisen’s reputation has been so notorious that braggart Gad truncates his surname and feigns Gad Feureisen (omitting one “e”) in English and גד פויירשן (compare with the original פייעראייזען) in Hebrew – so Google won’t display his ugly heritage. Gad’s trashy “music” serves the Feuereisens to provide a façade of legitimately earned livelihood for what is in fact dirty slumlordship and spying riches.

BALTIMORE FEUEREISEN ON RABBI SLANGER (PART 2 OF 3) said...

Feuereisen writes that “רב שך [rabbi Shach] called Rav Slanger an איש פלא, a wonder” (p. 15). Indeed, it’s a wonder how Slanger achieved his high positions. Slanger’s origins are shrouded in mystery. His family eluded the Holocaust fate of European Jewry because his dad was a rich Hungarian textile manager who could get them aboard the infamous Kastner train to escape the Nazis. Slanger spent some time in Israel but had to leave it (there is the official “medical” version and horrible rumors), taught in the U.S. at Kamenetsky’s yeshiva in Philadelphia and later moved to teach at Ner Israel of Baltimore: All sounds like the story of Baltimore pedophile rabbi Moshe Eisemann. Feuereisen writes: “Rav Slanger must have thought ‘If I and my family could not live in ארץ ישראל [Israel], then it might as well be in נר ישראל [Ner Israel].’ נר ישראל opened up many doors for Rav Slanger” (p. 17). Shortly before the millennium, Slanger finally opened his own yeshiva “The Bais Hamedrash and Mesivta of Baltimore,” which he later moved into the “Summit Country Club” that he bought on Old Pimlico road where Al Capone once had a hideout and revelers came to dance the night away during 1920s-1940s. That yeshiva was the highest pinnacle of Slanger’s ambition – its name is even carved on his gravestone.

In my eyes, Slanger always typified that character portrayed in the Talmud who reads and studies not for the sake of the Lord but to be called a “sage,” “rabbi,” or “elder” enjoying a leadership position at the yeshiva (Nedarim 62a). For more than thirty years, Slanger staunchly served Ner Israel of Baltimore as a high school mashgiach (destroying many young lives and being fully aware of sexual and other abuses on campus), and only one man was higher in rank than he: rabbi Joseph Tendler. Yet he wanted more: His own school and his complete authority over what Feuereisen calls “generations of young impressionable [!] בחורים [youngsters]” (pp.13-14). Perhaps Slanger could impress them with the fact he never sat on a couch (the practice contradicting even Talmudic sources) because “[a] chair is to sit in, he thought, a bed to sleep in. A couch? Nisht ahin, nisht aher, not one and not the other!” Clearly, he thought even the former British chief rabbi-lord Jonathan Sacks violated some prohibition for he happened to be sitting on a couch… with his wife! But Feuereisen exclaims: “When it came to הלכה [Jewish Law] it was חק ולא יעבור [an unbreachable decree]. It is interesting to note that the word חק [decree] has a מספר [number] of 108 the same as צבי דב [Zvi Dov (Slanger / שלנגר)]” (p. 13). Whatever Feuereisen’s numbers are, they do not add up to an ample scholarship for Slanger.

BALTIMORE FEUEREISEN ON RABBI SLANGER (PART 3 OF 3) said...

Yet there are things worse than any Slanger’s erudition deficits. Here is one incident I saw: As lined-up teenagers were passing by rabbi Slanger on Saturday to shake his hand, he stopped a short and shy boy at his lectern. While the student line was growing longer and delayed, Slanger leisurely talked to him and then – suddenly! – did his power-play handshake: A jujitsu wristlock of a kind Donald Trump enjoys so much. Slanger, perhaps, underestimated his rabbinic strength because the boy shrieked with pain and fell to the floor. Freed from the rabbi’s clutch, he tried to get up and walk away when a son of Slanger’s staff member (standing behind him) squawked “schlimazel!” and kicked him in the buttocks. Slanger and students gave off an instant belly laugh, while the humiliated boy with wide-open dazed eyes rushed out of the yeshiva sanctuary. But Feuereisen asserts: “If one wanted to truly understand the meaning of "והיו עיניך ראות את מוריך" [‘Your eyes shall see your teacher’ – Isaiah 30:20] one had to look at Rav Slanger” (p. 12).

It is significant that when Slanger died, he was publicly eulogized by rabbi Yaakov Hopfer of Shearith Israel congregation. Hopfer is the man who has been covering up for decades numerous Orthodox crimes in Baltimore. The motto of Slanger’s yeshiva – ”Hasmoda [diligence]. Ruach [spirit]. Mesorah [tradition].” So, in the traditions of rabbinic nepotism, the yeshiva is currently run by Slanger’s son Elyasaf and son-in-law Chaim Cohen, and the faculty is comprised of many former Ner Israel members, such as homosexual Yosef Berkowitz (a son of notorious Zvi Berkowitz), Eisegrau pedophile family relative Yitzchok Kinzer, and other Ner Israel diligent and spiritual relatives and friends: Mordechai Feigenbaum, Dovid Strum, Yisroel Shubert. Feuereisen, however, views Slanger’s life from an occult standpoint (pp. 15-16): “It is interesting to note that Rav Slanger’s life evolved around the number "כא"‎ [21]. What is so special about the number 21? It states in פרשת ראה‎, "ושמחת בחגך והיית אך שמח" [‘And you shall rejoice in your feast.… so that you surely rejoice’ – Deuteronomy 16:14-15] The word אך [surely] has a מספר [number] of 21. When Rav Slanger was freed… it was כא כסלו‎ [21 Kislev]. {…} Yes, Rav Slanger’s life evolved around the number כא‎ [21]. He was freed on כא כסלו and was נפטר [died] on כא שבט‎ [21 Shevat] both days were כא.… For Rav Slanger the day he was freed on כא כסלו until his פטירה [death] on כא שבט was one long יום טוב [holiday]. There are י"ט אותיות‎ [19 letters] in the words ושמחת בחגך והיית אך שמח. The ראשי תיבות, the abbreviation for י"ט is יום טוב. Rav Slanger was able to accomplish everything in his life because his life and עבודת ה'‏ [service of God] was one long יום טוב.”

Our author ignores that 21 is also the value of זובו (“his seminal emission”) in Leviticus 15, and, moreover, his “19 letters” are only 5 words (of 34) in verses 14 and 15 (their start and end) because both verses contain not 19 but 145 letters. He, however, tries to make fake “Judaic” judgments based on such drivel. It’s good to remind Slanger’s and Feuereisen’s allies with their anti-couch metaphysics and number mysticism the words of the major cabalistic book – Zohar (3:85b). It quotes Malachi 2:6, “The Torah of truth was in his mouth,” and asks: Can there be Torah that is not the truth? Yes, answers the Zohar, and it is the “Torah” learned from an unfit and untruthful teacher. That has become one of the major tragedies of present-day Orthodox Judaism: DISHONESTY DIGNIFYING DISGRACE. In part, thanks to Yitzchok Robert Feuereisen and crooks he writes about.

BALTIMORE FEUEREISEN ON RABBI TRENK said...

The unprecedented coronavirus pandemic has not been able to deter jolly Yitzchok Robert Feuereisen! His newest blue cover booklet published on the eve of Jewish New Year 2020 certainly proves that. It is “A תורה [Torah] perspective on the life and times of Rav דוד [Dovid] Trenk זצ"ל” and is titled “‘ויעבר אלקים רוח על הארץ’ / ‘And ה'‏ [God] caused a spirit to pass over the earth.’” Feuereisen starts off with the question, “why is it that ה'‏ [God] makes Himself more available during the ימים נוראים [days between Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur] then the rest of the year? It may be because we don’t want the responsibility that comes with it” (p. 1). How true! Ner Israel Rabbinical College, to which Feuereisen belongs, showed zero responsibility and unsurpassable money-hunger when they recklessly started classes this fall which led to the massive outbreak of COVID-19 on campus. But social distancing is not for Feuereisen, he continues: “אברהם אבינו [Patriarch Abraham] could not tolerate distancing” (p. 3)! With this line of thought, his rabbi Trenk was “an individual who interacted with all of כלל ישראל [Jews]” (p. 6). Naturally, this approach resulted in the following bizarrerie: “Rav Dovid had a lot of energy. In that sense he never stopped being a teenager.... He would do all kinds of dances. Twirl himself around like a dreidel” (p. 8). The dreidel roller coaster took other shapes as well: Feuereisen ascribed the haggadic passage assigned to God, אני ולא מלאך אני ולא שליח [I and not an angel, I and not a messenger], to rabbi Trenk (p. 12), then made him into the spirit of Genesis 8:1 and added: “That רוח [spirit] was הרב דוד טרענק [rabbi Dovid Trenk]” (p. 13). Feuereisen also could not bypass his usual cabbalistic crap: “Rav Dovid had three names מנחם יחיאל דוד [Menachem Yechiel Dovid]. The ראשי תיבות [initial letters] of each name formed the word מיד which means right away.... The word משפט [judgment] has a מספר [number] of 429 the same as the name טרענק [Trenk] (p. 12). Uff, almost turned into a toad! You may ask: Why Trenk, why did Feuereisen mock this rabbi? The answer is simple: Shea Trenk, rabbi Dovid’s son, is the hubby of Basya Berkowitz, a daughter of rabbi Tzvi Berkowitz, a notorious Ner Israel pedophile enabler, whose wife Ettil (rabbi anti-vaccinator Shmuel Kamenetsky’s daughter) is one of the leading Baltimore Orthodox matchmakers. And Feuereisen wants to marry off his kids pretty soon....



Rabbi Trenk’s name, using the cabbalistic approach of Feuereisen, has the same value as “in truth” (דוד טרענק‎ = באמת‎ = 443). Yet this obviously simple and self-evident interpretation has not appeared anywhere in his booklet. Because in any case everything Feuereisen writes is falsehood and fraudulence. Paraphrasing him – as the “initial letter F” of his last name suggests!

BALTIMORE FEUEREISEN ON RABBI EPSTEIN (PART 1 OF 2) said...

Yitzchok Robert Feuereisen just loves to pose as a newspaperman. In 2009, he got national attention when (as a fake journalist “Robert Feuereisen”) he tried to get Obama’s autograph. At the time, he told the Secret Service he was working for the Jewish World Review (so they let him go). Feuereisen’s name never appears at JewishWorldReview.com, and he has written absolutely nothing for that publication! However, he has been backed up by the JWR’s publisher Binyamin Jolkovsky, a trusted friend of the Ner Israel Rabbinical College (Baltimore).

Feuereisen still lies to everyone around that he is a journalist: For instance, in the recent phony interview at the White House with his dear friend and “investigative Christian journalist Dr. Anthony Harper” (praising Donald Trump for his accomplishments and giving advice to Presidents). Feuereisen gets so absorbed in that consulting business that he seemingly forgets his own NIRC events: At least two very important persons at Ner Israel of Baltimore passed away since the beginning of this year: rabbi Sheftel Neuberger and rebbetzin Aviva Weisbord. It would be logical for Feuereisen to dedicate his latest pamphlet to one of them (especially to the rebbetzin related to him via Yaakov Akiva Sofer).

Nay, his new pamphlet, which is available inside every Orthodox Jewish synagogue in Baltimore, bears another dedication: “A תורה [Torah] Perspective on the Life and Times of HaRav Chaim Leib Halevi Epstein זצ"ל [of Blessed Memory]. Rosh HaYeshiva ישיבת זכרון מלך [Yeshiva Zichron Meleich]. A תלמיד ותיק [Veteran Student] all worthy one of מורינו הגאון הרב אהרן קוטלר זצוק"ל [Our Master Teacher Rabbi Aharon Kotler of Blessed Memory].” (What does “all worthy one of” mean remains a mystery.)

Rabbi Epstein died six years ago, but for Feuereisen’s agenda it’s been more useful to write about him today, reattaching that to rabbi Aharon Kotler, whom Feuereisen boasts to be his own mentor (despite the fact that at the time of rabbi Kotler’s death Feuereisen was just a little bar mitzvah whippersnapper). Thus, Feuereisen (p.6) applauded rabbi Kotler: “A רבי [rabbi] with a clear picture and understanding of the מסורה [tradition]. ‘מסורת אבותינו בידינו, the handling down from one generation to another.’” And immediately thereafter: “By attaching himself [rabbi Epstein] to his רבי מובהק [mentor = rabbi Kotler], it would guarantee his דבקות בה'‏ [attachment to God].” Feuereisen then described (p.7) rabbi Epstein as a prodigy (עלוי; as usual, Feuereisen erred: אילוי) and repeated rabbi Moshe Feinstein’s putative words to rabbi Epstein: “I hereby give you סמיכה [rabbinic ordination] over the phone.” (Feuereisen, of course, never credited Mishpacha magazine for that one.)

BALTIMORE FEUEREISEN ON RABBI EPSTEIN (PART 2 OF 2) said...

Routinely, Feuereisen dived into his recurrent esotericism (p.2): “The world [after Creation] was a מקוה טהורה [pure ritual bath]. Perhaps, that is why there are שש מעלות במקואות.” (Feuereisen understood these three Hebrew words as some cabbalistic “six levels of ritual baths,” while in the quoted Mishnaic text they simply mean “six types of gatherings of water.”) Feuereisen then announced he would cite the first Mishnah in Mikva’ot, but instead quoted Bartenura’s commentary to it. His neo-Cabbalistic crap went on: “Through the שש מעלות [six levels], one can communicate with the בורא עולם [Creator] uninhibited, no הפסק [barrier], no הסתר פנים [obscurity].” And in the spirit of Dale Carnegie (once again), Feuereisen (p.4) offered his arcane success formula: “The ששה סדרים [Six Mishnaic Orders] alludes to the שש מעלות [six levels] of the בריאה [Creation] and to the שש מעלות [six levels] of a מקוה טהורה [pure ritual bath]…. With the sixth סדר [Order] being טהרות [Tohorot] which the גמרא [Talmud] in מסכת שבת [treatise Shabbat] tells us refers to דעת [wisdom]…. In order for אדם [man] to be successful in this world, he must be מתפלל [pray] for דעת [wisdom]. ‘אתה חונן לאדם דעת, You graciously endow man with wisdom.’”

The finalization of Feuereisen’s occult doctrine came on page 10: “It is interesting to note that the words אתה חונן לאדם דעת [You graciously endow man with wisdom] have a מספר [number] of 1069. The name חיים ליב הלוי עפשטיין has a מספר of 690. In order for one to be מצליח [successful] in תורה [Torah] and Yiddishkeit one has to rearrange his life at times. In the ברכה [blessing] of אתה חונן there are the numbers 069. In the full name of רב חיים ליב [Rav Chaim Leib] you have the numbers 690. רב חיים ליב certainly rearranged his life to become an outstanding גדול בתורה [Torah luminary]. Therefore, one can take the numbers of 690 which adds up to his name and rearrange the numbers to 069 which are part of the numbers for the ברכה of אתה חונן.”

In the cited interview with his Christian friend and champion, Feuereisen shared the wisdom he allegedly taught President Bill Clinton: “Positive action creates confidence…. Confidence is the key to success.” (Mr. Clinton presumably accepted the instruction: “That is the only way to go!”) Feuereisen tells his Orthodox Jewish readers to pray for wisdom, which, he claims, leads to success; almost simultaneously he promotes confidence to his gentile listeners, which evidently accomplishes the same goal! Besides, for six interview minutes he not only unglued his dusty hat, but ceased peppering his speech with Hebrew and Yiddish words: a real confidence man! In his pamphlet, Feuereisen has not mentioned that the word צָרֹת (sorrows) also “equals” 690. And, continuing his line of thought, that 069 minus (Agent) 007 (James Bond) equals 062 – זֹנָה (prostitute). And that the circumcised Hebrew subtitle of his pamphlet “ראה נתתי לפניך היום את החיים ואת הטוב” (Deuteronomy 30:15: “See, I have set before thee this day life and good”) has the crucial cutoff: “and death and evil” (ואת המות ואת הרע). Because Feuereisen’s pamphlets epitomize hypocrisy, sorrow, whoredom, death and evil. And, of course, fake Jewish traditions.

BALTIMORE FEUEREISEN VS. SHEFTEL NEUBERGER said...

If mockery needs a sound illustration, it is the latest Robert Feuereisen’s booklet about Sheftel Neuberger, whom he describes as possessing “vitality, youthfulness” (p.6), having “youthful, dynamic leadership” (p.8) and adding: “The name שעפטיל מאיר הלוי [Sheftel Meir Ha-Levi] has a מספר [number] of 801 which is the same מספר as the words חזק חזק ונתחזק [strong and strengthened]” (p.9). Sheftel died of an aggressive cancer; saying that God “strengthened” him in his mortal agony is, at least, inhuman. Besides, number playing got Feuereisen to 801: From the time of Irenaeus, bishop of Lyons during the 2nd century, it has been assigned to baptized Jesus (AH, I-14:6)! Feuereisen’s Christian references are not accidental: It is said above that Anthony Harper, a Christian journalist, is among his friends. Moreover, Feuereisen says: “Since בריאת העולם [Creation] the inhabitants of the world have been trying to find the ‘fountain of youth.’ It can truly be said that Rav Sheftel found it” (p.7). Robert has long been obsessed with youth, which is a non-Jewish approach; likewise such “fountain” is a heathen idea – on the contrary, the Talmud (Megilah 28a) associates longevity with not degrading others, and that humiliation is what Feuereisen does in his pages. He prattles that “Rav Sheftel travelled a lot” to attend celebrations (p.8), and that “our message to רב שעפטיל [rabbi Sheftel] is, stand before the כסא הכבוד [Throne of God] that you were מכבד [honoring] all your life and declare on this ראש השנה [Rosh Hashana] "הנני" [Here I am]” (p.13).

That is because Sheftel could “best exemplify and amplify this idea that everything that is in this world is "בידו", within our reach” (p.5), and “"בידו" does not only mean that one has it in him, it also means ‘dominance,’ control over one’s destiny” (p.7), therefore, Sheftel’s relatives also embrace “this idea that everything הקב"ה [God] puts in front of them is truly "בידו" for them to accomplish” (p.12). Billions of dollars flowing through Ner Israel of Baltimore naturally help having everything “within reach” and under “dominance,” but Feuereisen never discusses that. Instead, he attacks readers: “There are those who feel unworthy…. If one thinks this way, he creates for himself an atmosphere of not belonging…. He makes himself inferior, unreachable and unable to be inspired.” (p.2). Because men – as Feuereisen – who “believe” in God, “feel so inspired and confident”: ”The two words of ראש השנה [Rosh Hashana] have 7 letters to reflect that each day of the week should become a new beginning for us, a new opportunity. If יום ראשון [Day 1], was not an effective day for us, then we should realize that we have a יום שני [Day 2] or a יום שלישי [Day 3]” (p.1). Read the posts above: Feuereisen, besides youth, is obsessed with confidence too.

Feuereisen babbles: “The 77 years of Rav Sheftel were years of strength. 77 is the מספר of the word עז, strength” (p.11). The value of זבחכם, your sacrifice, equals 77 too. Sheftel Neuberger is one more sacrifice of Ner Israel, and Feuereisen is a rascal careful to name all living Sheftel’s relatives of power whose patronage he seeks, while portraying Sheftel as a rich youthful hedonist. Another sacrifice is Saul Epstein, Ner Israel alumnus, over whom and whose property Feuereisen has been securing guardianship in the past months. (Epstein is now an old man who never even got married because of Feuereisen’s defamation and intrigues.) Feuereisen smiles: “הקב"ה [God] is pleading with us that we should make Him our מלך [King]” (p.2). No, the King does not plead with you, Robert, because Ner Israel men like you have an inherited place in Hell where your mockery and unjust wardship will be fully awarded.

BALTIMORE FEUEREISEN ON RABBI FORSHLAGER said...

A few days ago, Robert Feuereisen has come out with his new piffle “The choiciest fruit of your land: A תורה [Torah] perspective on the life and times of Hagoen Harav Michoel Eliezer Hacohen Forshlager.” (Of course, that was supposed to be “choicest” and “Hagaon,” — at the same time, nevertheless, Feuereisen did not forget to spatter his rant over 18 numbered pages [18 signifies Life].) Rabbi Forshlager came to the US before the Holocaust; he is buried in Baltimore. In recent years, some activists have tried cashing in on “the nearly forgotten life of a legendary scholar.” Feuereisen is on the same track. In his latest pamphlet, he wrote virtually nothing about the rabbi (on page 6 he even erred twice in the Jewish spelling of Sochaczew [Sochatchov], near which rabbi Forshlager had been born — “Sochatachov”) but somehow managed to squeeze into text such people as the late Novominsker chieftain (p.16) and rabbi Aharon Kotler, who allegedly had to “be קנה [acquire] the גאוה [grandeur] that הקב״ה [God] possesses” (p.13). Wow! Following his wonted crazy cabalistic course, Feuereisen has ascribed the verse אל תירא עבדי יעקב (Fear not, O Jacob, my servant [Isaiah 44:2]) to rabbi Forshlager, adding (p.12) that the “word תירא [fear]… has a מספר [value] of 611 which is תורה [Torah],” and right after that Feuereisen assigns (p.13) another verse containing the plural form תיראו (Fear /not/ [Exodus 14:13]) to rabbi Kotler, explaining that תיראו has the value of 617, the first “official address of the ישיבה [Lakewood yeshiva],” which then moved “down the street” into the building 625, which is “the מספר [value] of the word ‘הכתר’ [the crown]. This showed that רב אהרן [rabbi Kotler] was זוכה [awarded] to the ‘כתר התורה’ [crown of Torah].” Let us help Feuereisen’s numerology: 617+49 equals 625+41, both equal 666, 49+41=90=מכל (from everyone), therefore, we get “תירא (fear) תיראו (fear) מכל” — be scared of everyone, which equals The Beast of Apocalypse! How could Robert forget that? Feuereisen also ignores the fact that his number quackery easily metamorphoses into a denunciation of his own Orthodox yeshiva system: וראית (you saw = 617) הרשעים (wrongdoers = 625). Yet he sees no wrongdoers at all, even his beloved Ner Israel, a stronghold of countless abusers, he describes as “a world[-]renowned ישיבה [yeshiva] who [!] catered to every type of בחור [youngster] who wanted to learn תורה [Torah]” (p.8). In the words of Feuereisen, rabbis and scholars “were not that bad after all, but very pleasant individuals” (p.10). Feuereisen depicts rabbi Forshlager as “the אדם הראשון [first man (Adam of the Bible)] of America” (p.17), and Feuereisen stresses thrice (pages 1, 3 and 9) that Adam (“the first ‘Human Creation’” [p.1]) literally swallowed up the Tree of Knowledge — “eating the עץ הדעת.” That idea he supplemented by the following cabalistic statement: “One should take note that the word עצה [advice] can be divided into two. עץ ה׳ [God’s tree]. That is itself is the עצה…. The עץ ה׳ was a תקון [rectification] for the עץ הדעת [Tree of Knowledge]” (pp.3-4). Naturally, Feuereisen finds it “interesting to note” that the despising of birthright (Genesis 25:34) and the first fruits (Exodus 23:19) “both came about because of a strong desire for food” (p.2). We may sum up the entire wild Feuereisen’s work in his own jabber about rabbi Forshlager (on page 5): “an individual who he himself.” As the Sages remark about men like Feuereisen: כשהוא שוטה הרי הוא כשוטה לכל דבריו (when one acts crazy, at that time he is considered crazy in everything — Rosh HaShana 28a).

BALTIMORE FEUEREISEN ON RABBI CHAIM KANIEVSKY said...

Rashi explains (Berachos 58a) the Talmudic instruction of running to see a Jewish or gentile king as referring to someone meriting to see the Messiah and, therefore, being able to tell the difference between the King of Israel and other rulers. It follows that the deaths of two kingly Christian and Jewish individuals over the past year — queen Elizabeth II (b. 1926) and rabbi Chaim Kanievsky (b. 1928) — prove the Messiah has not arrived: The lives of the queen and the rabbi were troubled with embarrassment. Kings of the past were rigorously schooled to be rulers. Not so with our young British princess and Polish Jewish boy: Their pedigree just set them in positions of authority. That, of course, led to many scandals engulfing the royal family and the rabbi’s court, and the masses in the meantime foolishly looking up to their respective idols. When I first met “Rav Chaim,” he was still somewhat “young,” but one could already sense the upcoming doom that later manifested through his notorious grandson and daughter milking out millions of shekels from poor individuals wanting “to see a Jewish king” and merit his charlatanical “blessings.”

Yet there are individuals who believe in neither British royalty nor Jewish sages but cunningly use them to their advantage. Robert Feuereisen exemplifies these people. He has never respected rabbi Kanievsky or read his books, nevertheless, he has just put out a new pamphlet that he named “Who Sustains the Living [=Chaim] with Kindness” (מכלכל חיים בחסד). [Robert explains his title (p.14): “It states מכלכל חיים בחסד, who sustains the living with kindness. How fitting are these words when speaking of רב חיים (Rav Chaim). הקב״ה (God) gave us רב חיים and He did so with חסד (kindness).”] Feuereisen has added a subtitle אור עולם באוצר חיים that he translates (in his usual cabbalistic manner) as “The original light that illuminates the entire world is in the treasury of eternal life [=Chaim].”

Feuereisen wrote almost nothing about rabbi Kanievsky (p.9): “רב חיים [Rav Chaim] was one who squarely placed himself in front of the שכינה [Shechinah].… People came from all over the world… [to] just get a glimpse of him and be able to say ‘I had the special זכות [merit] to see רב חיים.’” That is because he had to fit rabbi Kanievsky into his own greatness theory (p.4): “When one enters this world where should he place himself? He must take a front row seat so that he can capture the קדושה [holiness] of the שכינה [Shechinah] and be מושפע [i.e.] influenced by its radiance all the days of his life.” Feuereisen then placed Adam, 3 Patriarchs, 12 Tribes, Moses, Aaron, Talmudic sages and later rabbis “in that front row seat ״שויתי״,” adding: “The word שויתי [‘I have set (the Lord always before me)’ — Psalm 16] has a מספר [number] of 726. The seven represents the seven days of the week and of course the twenty-six represents the שכינה.”

These cabbalistic calculations were preceded by another ectoplasmic revelation (p.2) that God was with Adam during 130 years of his repentance because “number 130 is the מספר [number] of the word ״עמך״ [i.e.] with you. אדם [Adam] understood that הקב״ה [God] was telling him, ‘Don’t worry, I will always remain with you.’” (Naturally [p.6], “The word מאד [very] rearranged is אדם.‎ הקב״ה [God] expects the אדם to be טוב מאד [very good].”) One more reckoning is given later (p.13): “The word וישחט [slaughter] has a מספר of 333 the same as the word שכחה [forgetfulness]. הקב״ה will never forget the עקידה [Binding of Isaac].”

Robert Feuereisen’s own Paradise on Earth is “a front row seat” where he and his family shamelessly enjoy not only popcorn but millions of dollars via their real estate and mafia schemes, and where slaughter and forgetfulness are equalized through psychotic cabbalistic calculations and by the silence of the local rabbis who worship a modern golden calf.

BALTIMORE FEUEREISEN ON RABBI YITZCHOK STERNHELL said...

A few days ago, Yitzchok (Robert) Feuereisen has released a new pamphlet about another Yitzchok: rabbi Sternhell, a friend and mentor of many Baltimore rabbis, including Heinemann, Eisemann, and Eisgrau. Let’s not discuss Feuereisen’s usual mockery, such as: “הקב"ה [God] created אדם [man] with a desire to eat and drink” (p.3) & “The question as to why שרה אמנו [matriarch Sarah] laughed [Genesis 18:13] is still a topic of conversation to this very day” (p.7). Neither the fact that Feuereisen consistently misspelled the rabbi’s last name in Hebrew: שטערענהלל in place of שטערנהעלל. Instead, we’ll briefly focus on rabbi Yitzchok Sternhell himself. This man, undoubtedly, had a hidden dark side prone to violence that is readily observed in the extremely abusive pashkevil “Smiting Kings” (למכה מלכים) that he and his yeshiva buddies once compiled in Europe against rabbi Moshe Tzvi Landau of Kisvárda and his famous commentary (quoted by many prominent rabbis including Eliezer Yehuda Waldenberg). And years ago, many still living Holocaust survivors had questions how rabbi Sternhell had managed to survive the war “in hiding” while letting his first wife, children, and in-laws to be murdered at the hands of the Nazis. At the time, nevertheless, rabbi Sternhell was (and his memory still remains) much significant to Orthodox Jewish Baltimore. There, rabbi Sternhell was a leader of “Machzikei Torah” congregation and the founder of “Torah Institute” (Orthodox school for children). These names may be meaningless to an outsider, however, Feuereisen visits the first (and its affiliate, “Baltimore Community Kollel”) and admires the second because “Torah Institute” is an influential school: It’s known who became its principal after rabbi Sternhell – rabbi Eliezer Eisgrau, a notorious Baltimore pedophile, the man who was raping his own daughter! (It’s thought-provoking that in the very first volume of rabbi Sternhell’s own book “Kochavei Yitzchok” [כוכבי יצחק / “Stars of Yitzchok”], published in 1969, the author mentioned Ephraim Shapiro [p.13], yet another infamous pedophile rabbi of Baltimore, among men with whom he “had a covenant of love and affection” [אשר ברית אהבה וידידות בינינו שורה].) Feuereisen writes (p. 13): “He [rabbi Sternhell] planned that his ישיבה [yeshiva] should reflect the pre-war חדרים [schools for children] and their תלמידים [students]. The חדרים of the previous generation were ones that the שכינה [Shechinah] was proud of.... Today, ישיבת כוכב יצחק [“Torah Institute”] is well known as an outstanding place of חינוך [education] with outstanding מחנכים [teachers].” He then adds: “It is interesting to note that Rav Sternhell, whose name was יצחק [Yitzchok], had the מדה [trait] of צחק [tzchok], laughter.” Indeed! Feuereisen surely remembers Rashi’s commentary that “mocking” (מצחק / metzachek) of Genesis 21:9 refers to idolatry, incest and bloodshed – exactly what Orthodox Jewish Baltimore is known for today. Unfortunately, rabbi Yitzchok Sternhell’s legacy has been behind these crimes too...

【This hacked comment has been restored <+ one link update>. Its original date: 3:04 PM, June 14, 2016.】

Yitzchak Robert Feuereisen of Baltimore's NIRC came out with a new publication: "A תורה [Torah] prespective on the life and times of the Bluzhever Rebbe זצ״ל (of blessed memory)." If he deletes the file, this is the original: http://pdfhost.net/index.php?Action=DownloadFile&id=6622bff40c202f2a918074f0cf3aa016 (all pages quoted here are according to this pdf file).

There is no reason to discuss the value of his pamphlet compiled in poor English and Hebrew (he could not even spell the word "perspective" on the cover). Only an unstable pseudocabalist could write such lines:

[p. 13-14]: The word מאד [much] turned around forms the word אדם [Adam]. Since he was the only one, there was no one to distract him…. [h]owever, when חוה [Eve] was created, she distracted אדם and caused him to eat from the עץ הדעת [Tree of knowledge]. {…} אדם הראשון [Adam] did תשובה [repentance] for 130 years. This signified that even though he was sent out גן עדן [Garden of Eden], he still had הקב״ה [God] with him. The word “עמך, with you” has a גמטריא [numerical value] of 130. [p. 16]: The name בלק [Balak] has a גמטריא [numerical value] of 132, the same גמטריא as the [Bluzhever] Rebbe’s name צבי יהודה [Zvi Judah]. The obvious question is what is the connection between the רבי [rabbi] and בלק {…} The answer is there is no connection between the רבי and בלק. {…} Rather one can say the significance of the Rebbe’s פטירה [demise] in the week of פרשת בלק [Numbers 22-25] is that if you take the name בלק and turn around the letters you form the word “קבל,” acceptance. קבל too equals 132, the same as צבי יהודה. [p. 17]: [T]he word “כאלה” [like these] has a גמטריא [numerical value] of 56. The Rebbe’s private residence was on 56th Street. The Rebbe through his כח [power] of עין טוב [good eye] was able to create his own פרדס [Paradise], his own גן עדן [Garden of Eden]. {…} The day the Bluzhever Rebbe was נפטר [died] was an elevated day, ערב שבת קודש [eve of Sabbath]. By השגח [Providence], it was also ט״ז תמוז [16th of Tammuz]. The גימטריה [numerical value] of ט״ז which is 16 has the same גמטריא as the word גבוה which means elevated. Perhaps הקב״ה [God] chose this זמן [time] for עלית נשמה [ascent of the soul] so that the Bluzhever Rebbe can go up to שמים [Heaven] and stand before the כסא הכבוד [Throne of Glory] and act as the שליח ציבור [cantor] and say “מזמור שיר ליום השבת” [Psalm 92]. {Note what Feuereisen penned last year about rabbi Efraim Eisenberg (http://baltimorejewishlife.com/news/news-detail.php?SECTION_ID=1&ARTICLE_ID=60803): Perhaps that is why הקב״ה [God] chose ט״ז סיון, the 16th of Sivan, for יציאת נשמה [departure of the soul] since the gematria [numerical value] of גבוה, elevated, is 16.}

However, there is something more important in that pamphlet — his absolute hypocrisy. Feuereisen discusses the "terrible מידה [trait]" of slanderous speech and then remarks: "On the other hand עין טובה [good eye] is when one shows tolerance, when one is משמח [rejoices] with someone else’s success and is מחזק [strengthens] that person. He gives him self confidence" (p. 6). Fine, but this we hear from the man who has spent his entire life slandering and swindling others and destroying their lives. Feuereisen further asserts: "It is our מסורה [tradition] from the time of קבלת התורה [Covenant at Sinai] that is keeping us going" (pp. 16-17). Good, but this is said by the man who lauds the late rabbi Israel Belsky (a defender of every molester and crook) as one of the Torah "giants" of the generation (p. 11), who quotes his own father Gad Feuereisen (גד פייעראייזען) — unblushingly appointing him as "the legendary שמש [attendant] of the Bluzhever בית המדרש [synagogue] and personal גבאי [aide of] the Bluzhever Rebbe as well as the previous Bluzhever Rebbe" (p. 15) — but "forgets" to mention that his father, Herr Gustav Feuereisen, served with the German Wehrmacht on the eastern front (in Ukraine) during the Holocaust when the Bluzhever Rebbe was in the Nazi concentration camp. (Note that Feuereisen named the concentration camp in Lower Saxony where the Bluzhever Rebbe had been as "Bergan-Belson" and "Bergan-Belsen" instead of "Bergen-Belsen" [p. 10].) Robert Feuereisen must study the issue of hypocrisy in Job 8:13. And if he decides to meditate upon the numerical value of 813, I'll give him a hint — it equals ארור אתה [cursed are you] in Genesis that God pronounced on the serpent (3:14) and on Cain (4:11).

RABBI ISRAEL “YISROEL” BELSKY OF YITZCHOCK “BOB” FEUEREISEN [PART 1 OF 4]

A new booklet about rabbi Israel “Yisroel” Belsky has appeared in this world. It is compiled by Yitzchock “Bob” Feuereisen of the Ner Israel Rabbinical College of Baltimore. This year Bob outdid himself: Instead of his usual ten+ pages, he produced forty, spending roughly two thousand bucks to print the booklets. At least two thousand to print his lunacy, folks! (But don’t you worry, he plans to cash in on Shlomo Rechnitz, Belsky’s billionaire son-in-law.) And, of course, he couldn’t do it without blundering out a cover error (אלתר in place of לאלתר). The booklet is available here: http://pdfhost.net/index.php?Action=DownloadFile&id=2df74148a87b87e1b8cae793c667c612 (Thanks, DiViDeByZeR0!) The last page has a cool photo of Feuereisen tanzen mit Baltimore leading rabbi Moshe Heinemann and local pious men.

All through the booklet Feuereisen extols Belsky as a “leader,” “genius,” “true עבד ה'‏ [servant of G-d],” “true עניו [humble man],” “אדם השלם [perfect man],” “giant in the spiritual sense,” “physical giant,” “holy, pure and caring נשמה [soul],” “wellspring of חזוק [support] and inspiration,” “individual who possessed great intelligence,” etc. According to Bob, Belsky “took nothing for himself and gave so much, to so many,” did “his best to rectify the injustice,” “always looked out for the needs of others,” and had “empathy towards everyone.” In short, “Rav Belsky was the "רבו אלופו ומידעו" [Avos 6:3], Rebbe, guide, and ultimate friend of all of כלל ישראל [Jewish nation]” (p. 13, 33).

Criticizing Feuereisen is silly because with each new line he piles up more and more idiocy, hypocrisy, and falsehood. It is also dangerous: Try telling him that many of his statements border on heresy, such as the one that three out of four Jewish New Years mentioned by the Sages “do not need to be called ראשי שנים [New Years], but our תנאים [Sages] felt it is an opportunity to be מעורר רחמים [arouse mercy] during the year when דרשו ה'‏ [seeking G-d] is not as relevant” (p. 9), and fifteen minutes later he’ll report on you, and your future may be seriously compromised. As Bob finger-wags his readers, “If one does not take advantage of this day, he loses not only the day, but the year and perhaps his entire future” (p. 6).

RABBI ISRAEL “YISROEL” BELSKY OF YITZCHOCK “BOB” FEUEREISEN [PART 2 OF 4]

When Feuereisen does his usual outrageous invented cabalistic crap, it only initially looks ludicrous: “When משה רבינו [Moses our master] said "מי לה' אלי" [whoever is for G-d join me], he also invoked מדת רחמים [attribute of mercy] by being מעורר- awakening the greatness of the עקידה [binding]. The word "אלי" [to me] also contains the word "איל"- ram, which reminds us of the איל that was stuck in the thicket and was used as a תמורה- exchange for יצחק [Isaac]” (p. 7); “It is noteworthy משה רבינו uses the word "אלי" three times.... By repeating the word "אלי" three times, משה רבינו once again invoked the עקידה....‎ משה רבינו felt the need to remind הקב"ה [G-d] four times about the עקידה through the word אלי in order to protect and defend and to show his חשיבות [esteem] for בני ישראל [Jewish nation].... The ארבעה ראשי שנים [four New Years] are a רמז [hint] to the four times משה רבינו says אלי referring to the איל in order to be מעורר רחמים‎” (p. 8-9); “The message is clear. הקב"ה [G-d] is telling משה רבינו throughout the forty years in the מדבר [desert] you became that איל אחד [one ram], you became the symbol of the עקידה to be מעורר רחמים for כלל ישראל” (p. 11); “The פרשה [chapter] of the נשיאים [princes] has eighty nine פסוקים [verses] that is the מספר [number] of the word גוף [body].… The חיה [wild animal] does not show סימנים [signs] of אמונה [faith]” (p. 17); “The idea is that every Jew must be fit להקרבה [to be sacrificed], to be placed on the מזבח [altar].... After removing the word, "חיה" from the word "חגיגה" [festival], we are left with the two letters of "ג" that form the word "גג" which means roof.... He can now feel as if he has a roof over his head and does not have to worry about his next meal” (p. 18-19); “Why do people lose things? It is not because they are careless, it is because הקב"ה [G-d] wants the person to think about the loss of the בית המקדש [temple]” (p. 24); “The word קרניו [its horns] without the "ב" has the מספר of 366, which is the מספר of חשבון, accountability” (p. 32); “If one would count the words from "ויחי" [Genesis 1:31] until "אשר ברא אלקים לעשות" [Genesis 2:3], he would find there are forty one words, which is the same מספר [number] of the word "איל" [ram]” (p. 35).

In spite of this, when Feuereisen gets to Israel Belsky, it turns ominously ugly: “He was both the נשמה [soul] and the גוף [body] of כלל ישראל [Jewish nation]. Yes, when speaking of Rav Belsky we can say, "אבי אבי רכב ישראל ופרשיו" [‘My father, my father, the chariot of Israel, and its horsemen’ -- Kings 2 2:12] (p. 17); “זכר לאברהם ליצחק ולישראל עבדיך ‘Remember for the sake of יצחק,‎ אברהם, and ישראל [Israel], Your servants.’” (p. 25); “Rav Belsky was recognized as a גדול בתורה [Torah leader] by all the גדולי ישראל [Jewish leaders]” (p. 20); “Anyone who came in contact with Rav Belsky, whether one knew him or not, just by looking at him, listening to him, or observing him, was able to say עדות [testimony] that there is an השגחה העליונה [Divine supervision], a בורא עולם [Creator].... He remained in תורה ודעת [yeshiva ‘Torah Vodaas’] all his life-almost seventy eight years. The word "לחם", bread, has a מספר of seventy eight. It can truly be said that Rav Belsky was a bread winner for תורה ודעת” (p. 27); “He was able to become the משה [Moses], the לוי [Levite] of our generation, who called out to all of ישראל [Israel],‎ מי לה' אלי", whoever is for ה'‏, join me", and join they did.... The word "מסוה" [mask] has a מספר of 111, which is the מספר of the word "פלא"-wonder.... Rav Belsky, too was a "פלא" to all of כלל ישראל [Jewish nation]” (p. 28); “The נביא [prophet] states, "וה' נתן חכמה לשלמה" [Kings 1 5:26: ‘And G-d gave wisdom to Solomon’], it can also be said, "וה' נתן חכמה לרב ישראל בעלסקי" [‘And G-d gave wisdom to Rav Israel Belsky’]. Rav Belsky saw and understood everything” (p. 29); “Rav Belsky attended תורה ודעת from early childhood and the השגחה [Providence] kept him there all his life in the בחינה [aspect] of "והנה איל אחר נאחז בסבך" [Genesis 22:13 /p. 29/: ‘there was only one איל /ram/ stuck in the bushes’]. As a result, his pure נשמה [soul] and גוף [body] were not compromised by outside influences” (p. 31); “Rav Belsky, the איל אחד [one ram] of our generation had to be protected.... In the name ישראל of one can find the letters that form the word איל” (p. 32); “הקב"ה [G-d] gave Rav Belsky another 208 שבתות [Sabbaths]. The number of 208 is the מספר of the name יצחק [Isaac] which alludes to the עקידה and "איל...נאחז בסבך" [Genesis 22:13]” (p. 36).

One might think that Feuereisen was simply unaware of Belsky’s dark side. Perhaps Bob with his poor knowledge of English even missed the Wikipedia entry http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yisroel_Belsky#Sexual_abuse_controversies? Nay, he could have read it in simple English too: “Belsky was criticized by other rabbis for his repeated defense of sexual abusers. Some have claimed that he intimidated victims of abuse. Belsky has publicly stated that victims should not report their rape to the police” (http://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yisroel_Belsky). In reality, Feuereisen knows about the allegations, privately discusses them with folks who foolishly cannot keep their mouth shut, and publicly defends his guru: “Rav Belsky knew how to deal with all types of individuals especially when they got out of hand. He would know how to calm them down and bring them back to themselves and face reality” (p. 17). So why does Feuereisen engage in falsity? Here is the truth:

RABBI ISRAEL “YISROEL” BELSKY OF YITZCHOCK “BOB” FEUEREISEN [PART 4 OF 4]

Earlier this year my friend Michael Lesher wrote that Belsky “had a crooked mind” (http://theunorthodoxjew.blogspot.com/2016/02/yisroel-belsky-parting-thoughts.html). I watched Belsky for many years, and I disagree with Michael. Crooked means not straight, but Belsky was very straightforward in his perversion. I’d rather say that Belsky, like his flunky Feuereisen, was completely, absolutely irreligious. And it didn’t start with protecting sexual criminals, it started even before Belsky began flossing his teeth with his beard on Sabbaths behind closed doors. (No exaggeration! He then even gave lectures about the sanctity of that day. Feuereisen: “Rav Belsky’s father, Rav Berel ז"ל once told him that the greatest thing about being a genius is what one does with it” -- p. 14.) The Mishna in Avos points out: “Rabbi Tzadok said: ‘Do not make the Torah a spade with which to dig’” (4:7). For Belsky, Feuereisen, and many other modern Machiavellian thugs the Torah serves as the means (spade) that justify their personal evil ends. So why do they dabble in the Torah and kitchen mysticism altogether? They seem to follow in the footsteps of the notorious writer Henry Miller who reveled in sex with whores at the same time enjoying good Bible passages. This is the general hallmark of our times: Even presidential candidates speak of admirable goals they endeavor, and you want to pinch yourself because you know their absolute dishonesty... In spite of that, I am happy that there are champions like Yitzchock “Bob” Feuereisen and I agree with Bob that “the בריאה [world] is not the same without Rav Belsky” (p. 27) -- their very immoral existence is the proof that change is coming: Gemora says in the end of Sotah that before the Messiah comes those who are wary of sin will be despised, and the truth will be absent. Feuereisen should be thrilled to recognize his special malign role in the upcoming events: You see, according to his cabalistic dogma, his own Hebrew name יצחק יהודה פייעראייזען has the 756 numeric value of פרעות [pogrom] and קרנות [horns]. Go, Baltimore Ravens, go!

Keeping with his psychoneurotic cabbalistic tenets, Feuereisen's lecture on Parshas Vayeira is a sermon on why the numerical equivalent of כולל תפארת משה אריה ("Baltimore Community Kollel") has the same value 1728 as כי מות תמות אתה ("thou shalt surely die" — Bereishis 20:7 in Vayeira): 1+7+2+8=18=חי ("life") — if you don't learn Torah at BCK you will certainly die, but if you learn there you will live forever!
