Earlier today an Israeli court found the head of a sadistic hasidic cult and his assistant guilty of rape, sodomy, slavery, and physically, sexually and emotionally abusing women and dozens of children – some of them his own children.

The cult is a small offshoot of the Breslov hasidic movement.

The cult leader’s “family" included six women/wives and dozens of children.

Two of those women reportedly had to be removed from the courtroom after causing a disruption as the guilty verdict was being read.

"There was only love in the house. It's all a lie,” one of them reportedly said later.

The cult leader, publicly identified only by the initial “D” due a gag order, reportedly saw himself as the successor of a well-known figure from his (officially unnamed) hasidic movement and as the individual chosen by that leader to distribute the leader’s doctrine in the world.

“D” used classic grooming behavior to attract female followers. But once those female followers were sufficiently indoctrinated, he became violent and abusive toward them.

His cult “family” reportedly lived in apartments in both Jerusalem and Tiberias. He forced the children to beg and distribute cult propaganda, “using cruel measures to punish them according to his unexpected caprices, erasing their personality and distorting their thoughts,” Ynet reported.

Those cruel measures reportedly extreme violence, imprisonment, starvation, physical and emotional abuse, humiliation, serious sex offenses, and keeping the children away from their mothers.

A male follower who lived with “D’s” “family” was also convicted on serious sex and violence charges, allegedly for acts against the women and children he committed on “D’s” orders.

A search of the “family’s” homes found electric shock devices, ropes and rods – along with medical records from different hospitals across the country which detail many of the physical injuries the children suffered from “D’s” abuse.

These Bratslavers are not Jews. What was the menual's sentence?

Unfortunately, they are Jews. More tragic is that although such deviants are condemned by the Haredi Rabbinate, examine the priorities of the Rabbis.
If you were to use an evil iphone in public, to send charity to a deserving person, you would be banned from haredi schools for violating their command. Dare to report the abuse to the Jewish police? That is a Sin worse than rape and you have no place in the community.

However,if you were to provide food and comfort to those insane breslovers in this news story, you would be perfectly acceptable to the schools.

Pard, that is precisely why they - and the psychopaths who support them with the kind of behavior you describe - should not be considered Jews.

Extreme religious belief or practice is just a cover for megalomania in cases like this. He's no different from Warren Jeffs or the Mormon crazies on the Utah-Colorado border or any others of that kind. Too bad those who arrested him didn't find a reason to shoot him. Such people are a blight on humanity. Too bad this one's ours.

S M L -I would not shoot him ,first i would torture them like he tortured those innocent children then i would skin him alive slowly,that is just punishment in my oppinion.

Jancsi: Oh - OK. Sure, why not.

Also need to get the children out of that environment even if means taking them away from their mothers, even assuming those women aren't culpable in the beatings of the children.

the gr'a had such discerning foresight! all those followers of the sorcerer were rubbish!

... even if means taking them away from their mothers, even assuming those women aren't culpable in the beatings of the children.


SML,
according to the IBA radio station. many of the 'wives' are defending the abusers.

The Haredi version of now defunct Puertorican sadist Ariel Castro. A similar fate comes in handy for this schmuck.
