Bobov Yeshiva To Parents: Don't Let Your Kids Talk To Goyim – Even Security Police

"We ask the honorable parents to to watch over their kids during Sabbath and the holidays, and especially now during the high holidays when there are security police next to the shul that they should not go to talk to them, as it is self understood, (and the same with goyim in general)."

This letter was sent to parents on the eve of Yom Kippur earlier this month.

The first paragraph reads (according to the translation of it sent by my source):

"We ask the honorable parents to to watch over their kids during Sabbath and the holidays, and especially now during the high holidays when there are security police next to the shul that they should not go to talk to them, as it is self understood, (and the same with goyim in general)."

The second paragraph paragraph asks parents to make sure their kids stand next to them during the prayers, and that they do not go outside of the synagogue:

Theese rebbes are afraid of their own shaddow,what idiots they are.

[Gumbril]

But if gentiles were born only to serve jews, how are jews going to give the orders?

Didn't they learn anything from the Leiby Kletzky case? Had he spoken to a cop when he was lost, instead of a man "from his community," he'd be alive.

[ruthie]

good point wigmore.

i'm beginning to suspect that it's not about talking with "goyim"
it's REALLY about being scared with the internet ect. that their
following will stray. BIG TIME.
so they're just putting a fence upon fence upon fence to keep them all
in this cult.
if there was freedom to say good morning and have a chat with a postman or someone in a shop for example i wouldn't call it a cult.

I had a friend who grew up Bobov. They weren't as crazy then as they are now.

The craziness was all about money. That's why the various insundry "Bobov Rebbes" all of a sudden started making their own kehillas. The first American Bobov "rebbe" lived like a king, the kids and nephews (whatever) want the same regal lifestyle for themeselves. In order to prove their worthiness to their deluded followers, each of these worthless "rebbe'im" issue edicts that show how "frum" and "removed from the world" that they are.

What a sham religion Judaism is.

Mix the enemy with your own sorcery and this is what you get. Dismal hate against the common man.

If only they'd take this a step or two further and not want to accept anything from those horrible "goyim." You know, like tax payer money or police protection

One thing you have to give the Hasidim is that thy are like a family and look out for each other. This is not seen in the secular world here it is everyone for themselves.

Are you joking? Many, many other groups help each other. Have you seen how the Chinese families pool their resources and buy a house in a few years, while many Hasidim are still living in apartments after 50 years in this country?

Yes, the behavior you're describing is descriptive of all cults.

This only applies as long as you toe the line. As soon as you begin to show some independence - watch out. Look at what happened to Deb Tambor, A"H: http://abandoningeden.blogspot.com/2013/09/the-death-of-otder.html?m=1

Sol--Yes its one family all right a truly sick family.

You're right. Secular people are known for throwing their families under the bus to protect influential secular criminals or leaders. God forbid you should choose to leave the secular world. Their leaders will ostracize you to no end, or in the case of a divorce, ensure that your rights are thrown out the window.
Wait a minute, that sounds as hassidishe as disgusting food, bad hygiene, child rape and furry hats.......

Don't talk to goyim, eh? I guess my family forgot to tell me that part before I said "I do" in front of a judge!
