For a few weeks now, Mea Shearim Pashkevilim (news posters) have been warning the local population that "Beit Warsha - Warsaw House" is going to be demolished. The tenants will be thrown out of their houses and the landlord is going to build a shopping center. The entire neighbourhood would be in danger due to upcoming immodest behaviour of new people walking in from the outside.
The main concern, however, is that people are simply being thrown out of their apartments because someone wants to make money.
And who is this someone or, in other words, the landlord ?
Chassidut Gur !
From every tenant who passes away, the apartment is given to a Gerrer Chassid. This way, Chassidut Gur is, slowly slowly, taking over the apartments in "Beit Warsha". As soon as this is going to happen, the houses will be demolished and the shopping center is making its way.
A huge demonstration took place yesterday. The police showed up and the tenants made a fuss.
Don't forget that Chassidut Gur has enormous influence, as Yaakov Litzman is part of the Israeli government. It was Litzman who just won over Netanyahu and the cabinet decided to give Millions of Shekels to the Barzilai Hospital in Ashkelon. One of the hospital owners is Chassidut Gur.
As a matter of fact, Gur together with Litzman will get any governmental help they can to get the tenants out of "Beit Warsha" !

ReplyDeleteThat's correct and I fixed the mistake.
By the way, the secular newspaper "Yediot Acharonot" is leading a whole media war against Litzman at the moment !
