Nearly 60 Haredi anti-army hoodlums arrested for public disturbances
Extremist Shmuel Auerbach's bunch are at it again, because they won't recognize that draft-dodging is a felony. And they even harassed a lady soldier:
Dozens of Haredi protesters who were demonstrating last night against the arrest of military draft avoiders were documented surrounding a female soldier who was passing through the area. The protesters shouted at the soldier, calling her “shiksa,” a derogatory term for a non-Jewish woman, and an “animal” while she was attempting to clear the way for a vehicle.Their antics included blocking traffic, and I was on a train unit the other day where I noticed some of it:
Nearly 60 ultra-Orthodox draft protesters were arrested on Monday and Tuesday for rioting in Jerusalem and Bnei Brak.If this is the case, then he's innocent of wrongdoing, and was acting in self-defense. The police are already fingering Auerbach as a suspect:
The violence followed the recent arrest of two members of the Jerusalem Faction, an extremist haredi organization that opposes ultra-Orthodox enlistment in the IDF.
The group’s leader, Rabbi Shmuel Auerbach, has called on his followers to protest the arrests, as well as the High Court of Justice’s decision to strike down the law exempting haredi Jews from compulsory military service while they are studying in yeshivot.
Video footage, taken at a Monday night protest in the capital, shows a police officer pulling his pistol, pointing it at violent haredi protesters, and saying, “Who wants a bullet?” The incident is under investigation.
In the video, the unidentified officer can be heard issuing the threat, holding the gun in his right hand, while walking aggressively toward a crowd of dozens of protesters at the intersection of Sarei Israel Boulevard and Jaffa Road.
Police said that when the officer arrived moments earlier, his SUV was besieged by protesters who rocked it back and forth and pelted it with objects while shouting insults.
“During the riot by members of the ultra-Orthodox community, the officer’s vehicle was surrounded and blocked by a number of protesters who threw rocks at it, began rocking it and shouted at him,” said police spokesman Micky Rosenfeld.
“For his own personal safety, he exited the vehicle and pulled out his gun, which at no time was fired,” he continued. “Ten arrests were made of people throwing rocks and blocking roads and the light rail.”
The police said Tuesday that the haredi anti-draft demonstrations and illegal roadblocks in Jerusalem and Bnei Brak were instigated by Rabbi Shmuel Auerbach, the leader of the radical Jerusalem faction.He should be arrested already for incitement to cause disruptions in public order. He's got blame to shoulder, and should have his bank accounts frozen and electricity subscription cancelled for all the trouble he's caused.
If direct evidence is found linking the 86-year-old rabbi to the riots and the roadblocks, the 86-year old rabbi will be treated like any other citizen and be summoned for questioning, the police told Channel 2.
