Rav Shalom Kaminetsky shares the details of his father Rav Shmuel’s involvement in the “Eretz Hakodesh” issue, including his painful attempts to correspond with Rav Chaim Kanievsky. This concerns the question of whether people should vote in the World Zionist organization.
If this is how they operate, then Lord helps us all. Click on each to expand.
Translated Testimony of Rav Sholom Kamenetsky:
They are operating with second hand information from unreliable people expressed either verbally or on scribbles over fax lines, not having actual face to face conversations on matters that they deem important. Is this what they did to mandate COVID shots?
In addition to that, they are relying completely on hints and clues from a person whose own father told him to concentrate completely on scholarship because he didn't relate well to the world, didn't know what street he lived on, etc. Their primary concern always seems to be the honor of rabbis rather than the welfare of the community. This is Torah study and rabbi worship run amuck. I'm not blaming Rav Chaim. He never asked to be consulted like this. It's what they built up around him.
These are the people in charge of the contemporary yeshivah world. The modern Orthodox world is no better by the way.
