To the person who came over to me in Shul today while I was holding my 2yr old and told me "no one wants you here," and then sent his adolescent son to tell me with my 5yr old on my lap "to be clear, you're not welcome here," I hope you have a meaningful fast tomorrow and 9 B'av.

Does the word intifada have another meaning that I'm unfamiliar with? I studied in Israel during the 2nd intifada and there were daily attacks not far from my school. Bus bombings, pizza parlors, etc. If that's what these students are calling for, they should face consequences.

Thread 🧵 on corporal punishment in Yeshivas: As a kid, I was one of the best (if not THE best) boys in my class (at least during Judaic studies). Yet even I was hit numerous times. One time, my teacher in 2nd grade smacked me so hard that I & my metal desk fell over sideways.

I can attest that over the last two decades, hitting in Yeshivas has become much less frequent. But to deny that it's still a common practice is nothing short of lying & gaslighting. It takes advantage of the fact that it's hard to prove what happens inside those insular walls.

To be clear, the decline in hitting is mostly a result of parents being angered (and occasionally bursting into the classroom to confront the teachers!). It is not because Yeshivas have explicit policies against hitting. In fact, Hasidic Yeshivas have few policies (or curricula).

Governor Hochul made it on to the cover of a Haredi newspaper. Why? Because of the hundreds of millions $ she secured for Yeshivas? Nope. Because she hasn't agreed to meddle into @NYSEDNews efforts to ensure all schools, including Yeshivas, comply with the law.

@JuliaCarmel__ @ReuvenBlau Senator, you didn't contact us before you introduced the legislation either. That's weird too. No? My team did reach out to your office as soon as it was introduced. We were given a meeting with Mr. Mishler who confirmed our worst fears about the intention of this legislation.

Seven years ago I met with Rabbi Chaim Dovid Zwiebel at @AgudahNews 's offices and begged him to help resolve the lack of education in many Hasidic Yeshivas and avoid the negative media coverage that would result from maintaining the status quo? What do you think he did?

@livin4dagrind @OJPAC @nmoster @yaffedorg Moster has many successful Hasidic brothers. He is the only loser in the family.

Correction: they published a piece that found that 50,000 children in Hasidic Yeshivas are being denied an education. #YeshivaGate

When @nytimes published a piece on five unsubstantiated cases of corporal punishment in yeshivas, so many elected officials were quick to condemn. A day after this appeared in the @timesunion , the silence is deafening… Where are your condemnations now?!?

This is interesting and will probably rattle quite a few Haredi Yeshiva defenders. On Zev Brenner's radio show, Prof @AlanDersh predicted that Haredi Yeshivas would not win outright in a SCOTUS showdown on secular education. At a minimum they'd need to compromise. #YeshivaGate

This is a big development. A popular Hasidic leader is calling out Hasidic Assemblyman Simcha Eichenstein for lying about corporal punishment in Hasidic Yeshivas. "You saw what I saw."
