Theft is theft
December 16, 2017 9:29 am

If you walk outside of any store without paying for goods it’s called stealing. That’s what they’re accused of.
How frum are they? Just because women wear wigs doesn’t make them frum. If they did steal it’s a hillul Hashem.

fyi most of the jews in germany today are first generation immigrants. for example, many russian jews (as well as jews from other countries) looking for a place that would both grant them legal entry and also hold promise of good employment, have immigrated to germany. they are definitely not descendants of german jews seeking to re-establish an old community. except for shluchim who are there to help yidden find/maintain their jewish identity and grow in their observance of torah and mitzvohs,i find the thought of yidden choosing to immigrate to germany extremely disconcerting. i wouldn’t move there even if… Read more »

Sounds like a reasonable story, that without thinking, one could easily pass the electronic security system. Horrid experience for them, hope they will be home soon

To #19 it does make sense.

Jews live in Germany and not in America because America doesn’t want them, you need a green card to live in America you can’t just move. Not all survivers moved out of Germany so now there grandkids live there, you can’t just tell a million people to leave (because their grandparents were Nazis).
That’s how the community rebuilt itself.

It’s got nothing to do with getting arrested, it’s the fact that this is the place of Amalek, this is where Nazism started & is a Jewish grave yard, it’s not the fact that they got arrested, it’s what are they doing in Berlin, where they smashed Jewish stores on Kristel Nacht, where Jews weren’t wanted, Murdered & killed, don’t u get it, it has nothing 2 do with what happened, Jews don’t belong in Berlin or anywhere in Germany for that matter, what don’t u get, it’s an Anti Semitic county things haven’t changed there, & just bec other… Read more »

Do you claim racism for every jew who gets arrested in Israel for shoplifting? Crying wolf all the time, eventually you won’t be heard.

Impossible!
December 8, 2017 8:45 am

Why would anyone steal from Primark where nothings worth or costs more then a half a dollar lol

December 8, 2017 8:30 am

Why do you automatically assume it’s racism? The Germans could have assumed it was shoplifting…. it is obviously a misunderstanding, but to automatically say it’s racism and nazi etc, without fact or reason is silly

Spending any money in Germany is lining the pockets of those whose parents and grandparents murdered 6m
Stay out of Germany PEROID!!

what were they doing there?
December 8, 2017 12:25 am

i don’t know whether they did or didn’t shoplift; presumably they didn’t and it’ll be the shopkeeper’s word against theirs – unless there are cameras to prove otherwise, but for the life of me I don’t get a frum Jewish woman, or, worse still, a whole group of them, choosing to tour Berlin. Hope for their sake that they’ll be thrown out of that country in a hurry.

That's what happens
December 7, 2017 11:53 pm

No one gets to keep their stuff when they go to jail. How do ppl not know this?

I hope their purpose in going to Germany was for learning and
December 7, 2017 10:59 pm

to visit sites there where our ancestors were killed. If it was for touring now may not be the best time. Time now to work on bringing the Geulah Schleima!

Why Berlin

If you’re gona go on a Frum ladies only group trip, Please Tell Me Why Of All Cities & Places In The World Would U Go To Berlin, Germany ?

Yes.
The fact that they had a wig, might make the case for shoplifting.

Be Chill right now....
December 7, 2017 8:10 pm

We can always get another shaitel. ask for an extra shirt and make a covering. Please come home safe…

Maybe the athorities thought they were wearing wigs to disguise themselves for shoplifting..

anti-semitisim is alive and well in Germany

They could have snoods or tichels, I believe
December 7, 2017 7:00 pm

as Moslem and other nationalities that cover their heads are allowed to do so almost anywhere. Could be just a cultural misunderstanding or actual anti-semitism at work.
