Father-In-Law Of Terror Victim Verbally Attacked Over Anti-Zionist Speech
Rabbi Yaakov Tzvi Chanon, the father-in-law Rabbi Avrohom Wallis who was killed in a terror attack in Jerusalem earlier this week, was attacked by a fellow haredi upset that Chanon had blamed the government, the IDF and Zionists for his son-in-law’s death and for being "murderers" and "apostates."

Father-In-Law Of Terror Victim Verbally Attacked Over Anti-Zionist Speech

Rabbi Yaakov Tzvi Chanon, the father-in-law Rabbi Avrohom Wallis who was killed in a terror attack in Jerusalem earlier this week, was attacked by a fellow haredi upset that Chanon had blamed the government, the IDF and Zionists for his son-in-law’s death and for being "murderers" and "apostates."
Behadrei Haredim reported that pandemonium broke out in a synagogue in Mea Shearim as Chanon was praying.
At least one worshipper shouted, “Go to Gaza! This is your place, the where you can make your speeches!”
The confrontation almost sparked a riot.
Chanon is a member of the of Mishkenot Haroim hasidic sect and is known as a fanatic and extremist. He serves as the cantor at all demonstrations organized by the virulently anti-Zionist Edah Haredit haredi umbrella group which controls Mea Shearim, and also travels to the US where he serves as a cantor in the two main Satmar synagogues in Williamsburg, Brooklyn.
Chanon’s speech at his son-in-law’s funeral angered a small minority of Mea Shearim haredim who reportedly felt that during a war, and when Chanon’s son-in-law was killed by a terrorist, Chanon’s words were inappropriate.
Every maivan, tzaddik, rabbi and hedyot should think before speaking. If unsure, STFU.

I was wondering why none of the media mention that Rabbi Avrohom Wallis is a first cousin of convicted baby killer Yisroel Asher Wallis (also spelled Valis).
When Rabbi Avrohom was not working the Atra Kadisha extortion racket he was working at the Tzisis factory of the babykiller's father.
The same Eida Hareidis mob wailing and ranting at Avrohom's funeral, rioted and screamed 'blood libel' at Israeli law enforcement after Yisroel Asher's arrest.

They must be suffering terrible cognitive dissonance since if you believe if divine justice, this family's suffering is clearly related to the notorious baby killing.
It was only recently reported in the Haredi press that wearing tzitsis protected non-frum soldiers from being shot. Here this family of rabbis/schnorrers had a fucking factory full of tzitsis and it still did not save them from God's wrath for the babykilling.

Good for guy(s) who catigated him!
A small sign of positive change in the chareidi world (as Natan Slifkin has suggested on his blog)?
