Is the Bais Havaad justified in pre-conditioning the Yeshivas Bais Din, to end totally the Kol Korei(s)?

Having recognized that the Kol Korei is merely the opening salvo in a broader effort to dismantle the Bais Havaad, it must be made unequivocally clear that this declaration marks the final word on the matter.

Accordingly, every signatory to the Kol Korei is expected to affirm—without exception—that the Bais Din itself will adjudicate and render a binding resolution on this issue.

That's not what they are conditioning it on

Besides the merits of either side, the kllal’s biggest concern using the Bais HaVaad and its services, is that many choshuv Rabbonim, Gedolim, and Roshei Yeshiva have ruled that it is not a Bas Din. If one is chas vasholom going through a divorce, they care about having a kosher Gett and moving on in life.
Bais HaVaad’s responses and PR notices may or may not persuade some shift in public opinion, however it will only help its demise.
The irony is the Mida kineged mida. As some of its supporters decry how this process is unfair, how so many unrelated dayanim on the Bais Havaad are not corrupt and choshuv talmidei chachomim. They point out how much good Bais Havaad has done for so many etc.
Whatever the motive of the Matirim was at the beginning, the machine to justify the Heter became the cause itself. Besides the sinister underhanded rumors, forgeries, it didn’t concern them how many innocents would be harmed in the process. Many choshuv Rabonnim, talmidei chachomim, roshei Yeshiva and others were badmouthed. Hundreds of members of the Laskin Mishpocha were slandered, and then blamed as well.
As the Bais HaVaad is tasting some of their own medicine, they continue to “fight”. Clarifications on its agreement to go to Rabbi Reisman, an out of town Rabbi claiming to be the sole Matir without Bais Havaads involvement. Letters from a handful of Geonei Oilam vouching for them. Backdoor badmouthing sanity and motive of Rabbonim.
No one involved in any sichsuch or gett, will use a Bais Din which is officially not recognized by so many big names. Even if one bought into all the Bais Havaad PR, they will want a beis Din universally recognized and not one that so many will consider worthless.
If the Bais HaVaad has any interest in surviving, it will have to have some hachno’a and ask the those who banned it, what measures it needs to take for the ban to be removed.

Beyond disgusting!!! it shows the BD's true colors, for those who could not figure it out until now.
Shame on them.

If the heter is found to be invalid, is the husband going to divorce his wife? I don't know him (and may be incorrect ) however I suspect that he will not. The upshot of this public fighting will be that those who wish to adhere to the דבר השם will continue being incapable of finding a Rov who can guide them. It was hard enough before this fiasco and has just been made even more difficult r'l.

Can anyone explain Avremel Bromberg 's involvement? Rabbi Fuerst writes that the heter was based on information he heard directly from Avremel. Avremel then signed on the letter against the Bais Hvadd. Anybody know what is going on?

And if the heter is found to be valid, will everyone apologize? This is not about a specific case, its about the overall integrity of the bais din.

Anon 8:45 - Precisely two big names are against the Beis Havaad, not 'so many.'

Let us see who these people are:
Reb Elya ber Vachtfogel. He has told people, and it is well known, that he has an issue with the BHV because of a different pesak of theirs. He sent Reb Shalom to research that psak, and Reb Shalom told him that the pesak was just fine. But his opinion on that psak is worthless because he didn't speak to both sides.

Reb Shlomo Miller. Who told many people that he is relying on his notoriously unreliable son in law. Who is a member of the family. So it's not his opinion, but that of some baaleboss who is his son in law.

Basically, all Rabbanim and Gedolim support the BHV, from Reb Elya Brudny to Reb Henoch Shachar, Reb Eliyahu Levin to Reb Abba Brudny. The Beis Havaad's reputation was based on the Rabbanim who sent to them and are impressed with their way of acting.

So they should kowtow to bullies?
Yes, their true colors are that they do not bend for pressure.

If you have a Din Torah and are scared of outside pressure, Bais vaad is your place.

Reb Elya Ber goes around saying he is relying on Avremal, not Shach Alter.

Which makes things much better.

They kowtow to bullies all the time. by gitten they always side with the stronger side, and pressure the weaker side.

Bromberg is a handsome important looking intelligent dope. He is a puppet and will do and say anything to attain popularity.

Notwithstanding debating which Rabbis are bigger, the pro or anti, who wants a psak bais din which is worthless according to many? Attacking some of the signers, and mentioning a small list of people who vouch for the Bais Havaad doesn't change that.

This is not about the Cohen giyoresd. Thus is about the bais din paskening in favor of r Moshe velvel Weisberg against a Talmid of reb elya ber. R elya her has been on the warpath ever since. Not liking a psak is not a reason to dismantle a bais din. R elya her needs to get out

Regardless of anyone's opinion of the bais din it should be noted that all of you people dont really care what any of the gedolim say all of you are cherry picking the ones who agree with you to rape your own opinions on other people. Now when the Pro bais havad people do it I can understand it because they need to fight fire with fire but the anti people should stop masquerading behind others and just say your opinions from yourself. Be a man

Pathetic said...

The lies that you Philly boys will say and write in these comments out of desperation! R’ Eliyohu Levin is absolutely not on your side! bHV begged him to come to the rescue. He refused! R’ Elya Brudny attacked Philly a few years ago at the Agudah Convention. But then maybe he was afraid Sholom was going to beat him up or something so he caved to Philly and has been shilling for Philly ever since. If he’s just another Agudah party line propagandist now, you can have him. Now stop pretending that the gedolim fed up with Philly are limited to the recent chasimos. It is a much larger list

You are giving the impression that R' Eliyahu can be manipulated. I think you are mistaken!

If all the "Rabbi's" are easily manipulated where does that leave those who seek the דבר השם?

If the Bais HaMikdash would have been up today. It would of got destroyed now with this nonsense bickering to say it mildly.

Henoch Schachar is notorious for hearing the first side that approached him (and stronger side) and burying the other side. He has horrible middos. The worst candidate to deal with sholom bayis and gittin issues. Has destroyed so many families and individuals lives. I would advise everyone to stay far away from him.
