It looks to me like the outrageous sentence began the turn for the good
July 1, 2010 3:56 pm

Because now its obviously harsh and people are starting to open up their eyes and see the truth of the story. Rubashkin will be freed!

איבערגעטייטש סאטמערער רבי’ןס בריוו פרידען און אלעס גוטס לכבוד דעם חשוב’ן איד, אנגעפולט מיט מעשה צדקה וחסד, הרב ר’ שלום מרדכי בן רבקה, דער אייבערשטער זאל אים אפהיטן און זאל אים געבן לעבן. קודם וויאזוי פילט איר?, איך האב באקומען אייער בריוו פון ארעסט הויז, און מיט אסאך צער האב איך געהערט די דערציטערט’נדע נייעס, דער אייבערשטער זאל שוין רחמנות האבן. וואס קען איך זאגן און וואס זאל איך רעדן, בלויז צו הערן דאס טוט אונז אזוי שטארק וויי, וויאזוי אונזערע אידישע ברידער ווערן דערנידערט און געפייניגט מיט יסורים בגוף ובנפש, אין תפיסה. אבער אונזערע חכמים ז”ל האבן שוין לאנג… Read more »

b”h to the honorable rabbi of satmar shlit”a B”H we have had the merit to have two dear youths to visit me in imprisonment, and i have the chance to give over my request that prayers should be said on my behalf that i should be freed comppletely from the horrifying hardships of prison, and to bless me to victor over all my haters. with g-ds help next week pesach sheni is set that we will have the stage of sentencing though the real judge is our dear father in heaven. let it be that hashem should “sentence me” to… Read more »

#19 The first paragraph translated
July 1, 2010 10:50 am

I received your letter from Prison, and with lots of pain I heard the freighting news. God should have his mercy upon you. What should I say and what can I speak, it is so painful just to hear how are yiddisher brothers are being treated foolish, with low dignity, and being punished in jail and in prison with soul hurting pain.

Good Thing
July 1, 2010 10:45 am

Everyone agrees that the only good thing that came out of this whole “Rubashkin” case is the tremendous true Achdus from the entire Kllal Yisroel!!!

Moshiach

One of R’ Zalmens followers had legal problems a few years ago and the R’ Aaron did a lot to help him out.

Answer to number 16

Having Achdes for the great Mitzvah of Pidyon Shwiyim, has nothing to do with chasides.
If A yid is in trouble because he is a Yid, then all yidden will stick up and help, wheter its money or stam chizik.
The bottom line, keep the word “vs” out of the convo.

putting aside differences
July 1, 2010 3:09 am

I really had to laugh about the “putting aside differences” bit in some of the responses. Satmar vs. Lubavitch is history. Hurrah! What about Satmar vs. Satmar?

cases
July 1, 2010 12:27 am

there are so many cases which have had worse crimes and lesser sentencing. This judge is foolish because she has a big stain on her reputation, even if she doesnt like Jews, it was very undemocratic.

השם ישמריהו ויחיהו

Very impressing!
June 30, 2010 11:32 pm

This whole Rabashkin case needs to be recognized as true “Achdus”. You can see how 3 different parties are working together on one cause, to free their Jewish brother. 1. Rav Shulom Mordchai Ben Rivka Rabashkin [Lubavitch chusid] 2. Rav Pinchus Lipshitz an active editor/writer in the Yesed newspaper and strongly affiliated with the Degel Hatorah party in EY [in contrast with Lubavitch].3. The Satmar Community lead by Rabbi Aron Teitelbaum [in contrast with Lubavitch and the Degel Hatorah party/zionism] who is working tirelessly and is leading the propaganda in fund raising for the legal fees. May this be mekarev… Read more »

its gevaldig

brothers stay brothers no matter waht!
June 30, 2010 10:18 pm

its good to see the lovely connection between two yidden, rebbi and chosid, like father and son, may hashem bestow his fatherly love upon all of us and sholom mordechai b’frat, and may he have a geula l’mala m’tam v’das.

Achdus
June 30, 2010 9:55 pm

The Satmar Rebbe Reb Aharon is a truly amazing leader, his chassidim are the ones who made this massive drive to fund Sholom’s legal fund, what an amazing achdus!

Hey - Yud - Vov
June 30, 2010 9:51 pm

I noticed in The Satmar’s reply letter , those are the letters he put after Sholom Mordechai Ben Rivkah’s name .
Just curious what it stands for.

June 30, 2010 8:34 pm

not forget, Satmar Rebbe shlit”a is a true אוהב ישראל any differences the Chasidos might have would never effect is his personal love for every yid.

dated letter
June 30, 2010 8:27 pm

I am no Satmar chosid, but am not the least surprised of the letter sent to the Rebbe and the response from the Rebbe to Reb Shalom. The Rebbe is known fot his Ahavas Yisroel not to long ago the Rebbe was visited by some lubavitcher shiluchim it was an amazing site were te rebbe was farbreinging with the shiluchim. I also heard that some bochirim were selling lubavitcher seforim in Kiryas Joel and the Rebbe walked by and he asked his Gabbai what are they selling when he was told lubavitcher bochirim selling seforim he was happy and smiling… Read more »
