A new haredi music video made to publicize the plight of two Satmar yeshiva students imprisoned in Japan for drug smuggling implies God caused the earthquake, tsunami and nuclear disaster that devastated part of Japan because the Japanese won't release the two Satmar yeshiva students.
Shloime Daskal, one of the video's two performers along with Avraham Fried, sings the following lyrics as footage of the tsunami fills the screen:
טאטע טאטע
ברענג אהיים די ווייטע
כלל ישראל וועט נישט שווייגן
ווילאנג עס וועט זיך צום גוטנ’ס בייגן.
Here's a rough translation into English:
Father, Father [i.e., God, God]
Bring home the far [i.e., the Satmar yeshiva students imprisoned in Japan]
Klal Yisroel [the Jewish people] will not remain silent
As long as it [Japan] won't bend to goodness [i.e., as long as it (Japan) won't become good]
Alternately, the last two lines could read as follows:
Klal Yisroel [the Jewish people] will not remain silent
As long as it [Japan] bends to goodness [i.e., as long as it (Japan) becomes good – meaning the Jewish people will pray for and help Japan recover from the disasters if Japan repents and frees the Satmar yeshiva students imprisoned for drug smuggling]
The video was produced by the same person, Danny Finkleman, who made the Sholom Rubashkin Unity music video and who is currently making a 'documentary' on the Rubashkin case.
