Haredi Man Allegedly Spits On Female Soldier And Her Mother
Shmarya Rosenberg • FailedMessiah.com

A female IDF soldier and her mother were allegedly spat on by a haredi yeshiva student (pictured above) in Jerusalem as the two women were sitting inside their car on Bar Ilan Street. The haredi man approached and allegedly shouted, "Good women, good women!,” and then spat on the two women.

"He hit [my mother’s] neck and then spat on me," the soldier, Haleli Yitzhak told Ynet. "I felt helplessness and frustration,” she told Ynet.

“Several minutes later we made a u-turn and returned to the junction," she recounted. "I noticed him entering a yeshiva and managed to take a photograph of his back before he disappeared.…As a native of Jerusalem I know and respect this society. I know it's just a handful of people that tarnishes the reputation of an entire sector. I was very offended by what he did,” Haleli Yitzhak reportedly said.

She filed a police complaint against the man and police canvassed the area but could not find him.
 
Yitzhak told Ynet that she would be able recognize the man if she saw him again.

The new generation of mindless morons roaming the neighborhood,their toreh is a toreh of domination and terrorization of the weaker SEX,i would break every bone in his body to let him realize what this world is about, its about respect of others not like him, bastard that he is.

Undersocialized subhuman behavior. Not normative even for Haredim. This tells us nothing we didn't know before.

She should have used her IDF skills on the man.

SML, maybe not normative but a climate of hostility, ignorance and prejudice toward the outside world combined with arrogance rooted in political power fosters this sort of behavior. Now if the guy who did it gets kicked out of all haredi institutions I would not blame them for a lone nut. But he will only be kicked out if he decides to join the army.

I suppose he was just crazy, just like there are many crazy people who are not hareidi...

Granted there are crazy people who are not chareidi, but this guy's "craziness" manifests itself as misogynist and anti-Zionist. He spits on soldier who is protecting him, while dodging the draft himself (yes, I'd feel the same way if he was a secular anarchist ultra-leftist doing the same thing). Let him spit on a Hamas-nik, if he has real betzim.

> "I noticed him entering a yeshiva and managed to take a photograph of his back

Yeah, yeah, but they all look like alike.

The Haredim in this neighbourhood would be well advised to mind their manners for the next little while. This mindless fool may not realize but he has just put many women in the IDF and those who were once in the IDF on high alert. The next black hatted fuck that tries this Orthodox triumphalist move will find his teeth kicked in and his balls sitting in a little pool of blood, about a block away.

The shock value of this action may just have saved his life. If she had her wits about her, she would have destroyed this piece of fecal matter.

Don't some countries allow soldiers to shoot anyone who assaults them? A couple of rubber bullets to the seat of ultimate power, and we'll see the number of assaults drop.

To those of you who are already making excuses for the guy, trying to downplay the incident and accusing Shmarya (as you always do - every, single time) of only reporting the bad things Haredim do and not the bad things secular people do (even though it's been explained to you literally hundreds of times that that is the focus of this blog), and to those who will:

What if she had followed him into the yeshiva to complain to his rov? You don't think she would have been surrounded immediately by a gang of "ehrliche yidden" who would have had no problem roughing her up? Do you think they would even have allowed her to speak to him? If they did, and if he were even willing to speak to a "harlot" (which would most probably have been the case) - do you think he would even have cared?

It ISN'T just a few crazies; it's a sizable segment of your subculture embodying everything your heilige rabbonim teach you. They're just expressing it more freely. The next time a couple of Modern Orthodox kids get beaten up by a Haredi youth gang for simply wandering innocently through the wrong neighborhood, and their rabbis not only refuse to say anything but declare anyone who reveals their identity a moser; the next time a woman gets beaten up for sitting where she likes on a public bus; the next time a Haredi mob throws burning garbage cans at cars driving anywhere even near their neighborhood on Shabbat - you can tell us again that it's "only a few crazies".

NO ONE does wagons-in-a-circle like the Orthodox. No one. In this regard, you even have your new BFF's, the evangelicals, beat.

If they did, and if he were even willing to speak to a "harlot" (which would most probably *not* have been the case)

SML, maybe not normative but a climate of hostility, ignorance and prejudice toward the outside world combined with arrogance rooted in political power fosters this sort of behavior.

Absolutely so.

Well, there's that, but sometimes a woman is just asking for it. Sometimes your walking down the street and you see a woman who just looks like she's begging to be spit on. They haven't apprehended anyone, so we really haven't heard his side of the story.

As a native of Jerusalem I know and respect this society. I know it's just a handful of people that tarnishes the reputation of an entire sector.

I'm afraid that the "reputation" of the Charedi sector is already tarnished.

In any case, she is deluded if she thinks this behavior is only due to a handful of people.

You've got to be a put-on, like Waiting4Moshiach. You couldn't possibly be this dense.

Such a tragedy that Bibi's coalition has to be held hostage by ther likes of Shas. This is maddening. if i witnessed something like this i think i would have to get involved. This is fulfilling toreh, a mitzvoh? I don't get it.

That's what I thought, but then again...

It was my way of expressing dismay at the amount of discussion revolving around this event. There are no two sides when it comes to spitting on another human being, let alone a soldier in uniform. It would seem to me that just reporting the story is enough; that there is nothing that could possibly add to emphesize the gravity and atrocity of the event. Yet, it seems there is room for discussion - and I found that fact profoundly shocking.

As we say in the Hood: "Bust a cap in his ass!"

Next time, you may want to indicate that. Try doing this: [/sarcasm], or you could preface it with, "I'm sure they'd say... ."

He looks like Mary Poppins
