WATCH: Kosherica launches ‘Yeshiva week’ "treif" cruise?
Kosherica cruises has been machshil thousands in not providing kosher according to any standards.Why Do the Rabbis sanction these non-kosher cruises?
Isn't it embarrassing that all of the Miami, Lakewood, OU affiliated Rabbis are allowing this scandal
Can someone like Rabbis Weil (OU), Schneier, Riskin, Heir, Herring, Lipskar arrange an "OU" Hashgocha at least?
Does the "OU" allow kashering a Griddle with hot water only? from treif, back & forth daily from meat to dairy?
Does the OU allow working side by side within the treif kitchen with no barriers?
We are challenging the "OU" the world's largest certifier to have their staff do a complete "on-site" inspection of Kosherica cruises- GO THE ENTIRE TRIP, PORT TO PORT.
Can Chazonim like Adler, Avrohom Fried, Helffgot, Lerner, Miller, Lipa Schmeltzer, Stark, Flam demand that a qualified kashrus organization run the kashrus? So there might be at least some level of kashrus.
Can Rabbis Miller, Benin, Zahler, Levi Teitelbaum, Manish Spitz, Ruvi New, Etc be comfortable and vouch for the kashrus on the cruises?
http://www.kosherica.com/cruise_information/scholars.asp
Is the gullible kosher consumer being taken for a ride or to the cleaners? Perhaps?
Check it out yourself!
When one advertises a glatt kosher cruise, is that sufficient to join without any verification? Is the fact they there popular Rabbis, Chazonim, Scholars in residence any level of comfort, as far as kashrus reliability is concerned?
Does well known Scholars in residence, sufficient to give any level of kashrus reliability is Concerned?
Does well known popular Chazonim (cantors) sufficient to give any level of kashrus reliability is Concerned?
Did any of them check out the level of kashrus if it's acceptable?
Is anyone of them capable to check out the kashrus level?
We are talking about a cruise liner with some 2500-5000 + guests, a crew of some 1500, 10 + stories, with some 50 to 300 kosher guests among the other 4-5000 people.

For starters, A kosher certifier would need at large crew of Mashgichim for these cruises, not just 2. We question if it can be done at all-sometimes it's just not doable.
********************************************************************************
“There are many halachos one must consider before deciding to embark on a cruise,” adds Rabbi Goldberg. “Kashrus, tznius, Shabbos, and davening bring their own unique challenges onboard. Making sure that one is keeping those mitzvos properly would surely be a zechus (merit) to ensure one’s safety.”
Although, presently, STAR-K does not kosher certify any cruises, it would like to present just some of the several questions that Torah observant cruise passengers must face:
KASHRUS: What arrangements have been made to accommodate kosher food preparation? Is a kitchen dedicated to kosher food preparation, or has only a portion of a non-kosher kitchen been designated for kosher cooking? Will there only be a small percentage of the passengers who are kosher, making an especially problematic shared kosher and non-kosher situation more likely? Are you confident that everything will be cooked before Shabbos, and that the mashgichim will ensure that the staff follows the intricacies of the Shabbos laws of food preparation?
TZNIUS: Is it likely that your fellow passengers will show a lack of modesty, particularly if you are sailing to a sunny destination?
SHABBOS: Does the cruise leave within three days of Shabbos or Yom Tov, which Chazal have decreed is forbidden if the ship does not dock before Shabbos and remains in port during that Shabbos?
KABOLAS SHABBOS: How will you know when to accept Shabbos since, for security reasons, cruise lines are reluctant to release data to passengers and it is difficult to know exactly where the ship will be at any given moment?
ELECTRONICS: Will electronic cabin door locks, electric eye automatic door opening mechanisms, and sinks and toilets controlled by an electric eye, that have become commonplace on cruise ships, create a challenge on Shabbos?
SECURITY: If you return to the ship after a Shabbos stroll, can you be guaranteed that you will not set off alarms or lights at the metal detector? How will you get around showing your ticket (which may be muktza and forbidden to carry) and/or passport upon returning to the ship, so as not to cause Shabbos violations?
Reb Yudel why don't you go yourself and check it out ?
ReplyDeletebecause he will see that its not treif and is really on a high standard of kashrus
Delete"How will you know when to accept Shabbos since, for security reasons, cruise lines are reluctant to release data to passengers and it is difficult to know exactly where the ship will be at any given moment?"
ReplyDeleteIf chalila someone was stuck in the midbar and lost track of time, the halacha is you pick a 25 hour period to keep Shabbos.
If you can do that in the midbar, it's not so veit to also apply it when you are gorging yourself on every taanug in oylam hazeh that cruise ships are famous for.
To the credit of the French, who are difficult to credit with anything good, many French citizens made a kiddush Hashem yesterday by being publicly moyche at a massive rally against toayvah that the new French Socialist government wants to allow two mishkav zachurniks to adopt children. The number of people being moyche was estimated by the organizers at 850,000 and by the government at 350,000, which probably means the real number was something like half a million.
ReplyDeleteIf even the prusta French have the correct hashkofos at least in this area, how is it that Left Wing OU rabbis have signed the horrible letter inspired by Avi Weiss that two mishkav zachurniks should be allowed to adopt children & send them to yeshivos?
Shindler's frozen salmon fillets under the Volover Rov cost retail about $2 each.
ReplyDeleteWhen the label states "WILD CAUGHT", does that mean the Volover is not makpid on anisakis worms or is it false advertising, which may be the case anyway as wild fillets may generally be more expensive?
....you pick a 25 hour period to keep Shabbos.......
ReplyDeleteSounds like what the lost souls do on Metropolitan Avenue. They pick and choose hours, non exsisting Halachis and fantasy kosher standardss
fantasy kosher standardss
ReplyDeleteThat's right, according to the Queens Vaad blogger, wanting to keep kosher in Queens is just a fantasy! And unfortunately with the unreliable Queens Vaad using mafia tactics to keep out hashgocho competition, that is the sad reality.

Yudel.
ReplyDeleteWhy is it that you go after the OU guys on this cruise but are AFRAID to go after the Lubavichers who are there as well???
Is the OU just too nice. You know that they will ignore you but the Lubavichers will come after you? Or maybe
they'll do worse things to you?
Can you answer this right here on you blog?
Or are you afraid of that too???
... unreliable Queens Vaad....
ReplyDeleteWhen you or your 'holier then thou' mishpoocheh gets 'ah bissel fahr hingered' then the Queens Vaad is plenty reliable (as it always is).
The proof: They go to Queens Vaad establishments and not Burger King! - Guess it ain't too bad.
In other words he picks his hours (hungry or not)
picks his halachis (Queens Vaad good for me but not for internet readers). Picks his standards like which stores should have outside hashgacha or are better without hashgacha (like those other places in his area).
I didn't know that West Side Kosher distributes food to cruise ship lines too!
ReplyDeleteIt's true that Lubavitch plays hardball. They bullied stores in out of town cities that they will be boycotted if they sell the Yated.
ReplyDeleteThat all changed though when Pinny Lipschutz stopped being a flag-bearer for the fetter R' Elya & Rav Schach and started acting like the best friend Lubavitch ever had.
All of a sudden, Lubavitch is in love with the Yated and Yated copy sales went through the roof.
If a cruise doesn't work there are other options.
ReplyDeleteThere are African safaris with kosher food under the beis din of Johannesburg.

"I personally know of 18 people that were thrown overboard from a Princess cruise ship"
ReplyDeleteNot nogaya mashgichim who are supposed to be in the kitchen. And no kashrus problems if they swim to a remote island where they can subsist on pineapple & coconut.
pineapple & coconut maybe, but papaya is a shayle of orla
ReplyDeleteOn the topic of Gilligan's Island, when Pesach Lerner organized the junket to Agri in Postville to supposedly inspect kashrus & humane standards, it must have been the U.S.S. Minnow he chartered to get there
ReplyDeletehttp://www.hark.com/clips/wvllzrwgnx-gilligans-island-theme-song
Because it was a "3 hour tour" where the rabbonim got so in gantzen lost, all they had to comment was that Agri is "state of the art".

ReplyDeleteOU Internal Struggles Leading To Showdown
01/15/13
Who’s running the show at the Orthodox Union these days?
Several OU lay & professional staff members say there is “chaos” & a leadership vacuum at the group that has prompted Harvey Blitz, a former president, to challenge the group’s current president, Simcha Katz, who is seeking another term.
No date has been set for the election, which was postponed last month. It is unusual for the group to have contested elections for its highest office.
Some officials of the group complain bitterly that Katz has an autocratic style, alienating some staff & lay leaders, and that though a lay leader himself, he is functioning as CEO.
Katz declined to be interviewed.
Rabbi Steven Weil holds the top professional position of EVP but in the last year has served primarily as the public face of the organization, speaking on Shabbat about 36 times a year as scholar-in-residence at congregations around the country.
Rabbi Steven Burg, who got high marks for directing NCSY, the OU youth arm, took over much of the administrative & personnel responsibilities of the parent organization as well, but was denied the top spot; he left earlier this month to head the New York office of the Simon Wiesenthal Center.
“There is chaos within our leadership,” a key staff member complained. “We are a multimillion-dollar organization with no chief professional at the helm.”
He cited as an example that the OU at first signed on to — and later withdrew its support for — a strong statement by its rabbinic group, the Rabbinical Council of America, endorsing the conviction last month of Satmar chasid Nechemya Weberman on child sexual abuse charges.
“We looked foolish,” said the staff member.
Katz agreed to sign on to the RCA letter, but after Weil received criticism from segments of the ultra-Orthodox community, the letter was removed from the OU website.
Described by others as bright, committed & “an extreme micro-manager with a clear vision & demanding style,” Katz has made the yeshiva tuition crisis a priority for the organization, with a focus on seeking state aid. He's said to have instituted innovations prior to becoming president, when he was chair of the OU kashrut division, which generates much of the organization’s budget & is believed to bring in more than $20 million profit a year.
There are complaints that the lay leadership has been entrenched for decades, and lacks checks & balance procedures; the lay leadership, sources say, operates in less than professional ways, using funds to pay for travel of family members. (Isn't that criminal for a non-profit?)
Harvey Blitz was elected president in the wake of the Rabbi Baruch Lanner sexual abuse scandal at NCSY, in 2001, and is credited with helping to restore the OU’s reputation.
He confirmed this week that he plans to seek the presidency again, but deferred discussing his reasons for now.
Steve Savitsky, who preceded Katz as president, supports a 2nd term for him, while others are hoping Blitz will win & “clean house,” according to one frustrated staffer.
I always get farblungered when I drive in Queens. The boro is street-names challenged,
ReplyDeletewhat with avenues,crescents,roads, boulevards, and
dead-end alleyways. Of course there's the scenic
Van Wyck (expressway!), the speedy L.I. expressway,and the loopy Belt Parkway. From Metropolitan and Woodhaven avenues to the Yellowstone park and Lefferts blvds, from the soaring mountains of the hauntingly desolate tennis stadium of Forest Hills to the gleaming tombstones of Mount Hebron cemetery, LET FREEDOM RING! And when we are free from the shackles of the Queens Vaad's tyranny,then and only then will we be able to say in the words of
the poets Simon & Garfunkel, I hate Queens, I hate Queens, WHERE THE HECK IS THE INTERBORO-JACKIE ROBINSON ENTRANCE SO I CAN GET OUT OF QUEENS ALREADY AND BE FREE AT LAST, I HATE QUEENS!
I HATE QUEENS!
ReplyDeleteDer Kranke from QG (Queens) is also a self hater who loves to live in Queens eventhough 'er ken gornish fressen there.
Krankehs come in all shapes.
All the Queens Vaad propagandist can do is borrow a few lines from MLK, a communist & menuvol?
ReplyDeleteThere is plenty to eat in Queens if you buy with non-VHQ hashgocho, like at Rosenblum's where all the VHQ hypocrites love to shop instead of patronizing the VHQ stores who they shake down for huge fees.
It's a no brainer why Rosenblum's therefore has reasonable prices that attract the hypocrites
According to Kedassia, the latest makeup of the beis din to "investigate" Halpern is R' Sariel Rosenberg (Bnei Brak), R' Avrohom Boruch Rosenberg (Monsey) & R' Naftoli Nussbaum (Yerushalayim).
ReplyDeleteDayan Lichtenstein (London) is criticizing Kedassia for putting out Rav Nussbaum's name when he says he has information that Rav Nussbaum has no intention of getting involved.
Many British rabbonim are accusing Kedassia of a cover up.
R' Dovid Cohn & his Adas Yisroel kehilla of North Hendon have already resigned their membership in Kedassia and are trying to start a new charedi hashgocho service together with other soon to be former Kedassia affiliates. A distributor of chicken has already expressed interest in going under the new hashgocho.

What ever you can buy in rosenbooms you can buy in any bodega for a lot cheaper. Its all packaged stuff with hashgachas. The problem is with the other stuff......
ReplyDeleteBetter not talk about someone who has nothing to do with Queens except to earn a living to feed his family outside of Queens.
I would ask Zweig, I heard he is a frequent cruiser........
ReplyDeleteThere were some letzonim who were accepted to BMG over 25 years ago before standards were tightened who started being menagen that Gilligan's Island tune for Shir Hamaalos before bentching on Shabbos in the dining room. There were a few chuckles or surprised faces but otherwise no one knew where that niggun was from and everyone joined in including the rosh yeshiva who was at the seudah.
ReplyDeleteWhen the song was used a few years ago by the newspapers to poke fun at the joint OU-Young Israel-Chabad cover up for Rubashkin, it was even funnier for those who were BMG bochurim back in the day.
Here goes 'Yudel logic' again.
ReplyDeleteA cruise leaves port from Miami and its the Miami Rabbi's fault.
Are those Rabbis partners as well?
Do they also do Hashgachas for Peasach in "south florida @ a Golf Course"?
Or is it only Lakewood 'svitzers' that give Hashgachas in Stockton and such other places?

Horav Yudel. You also just joined the prestigous club of 'advertising' so so crises. You keep on harping and blaming everyone and anyone for pushing this cruise. By now there are quite a few people who are signing up for this cruise just to see what 'yudel is talking about'.
ReplyDeleteOthers never knew about this cruise or its exsistence and now have chosen to make use of 'a new venture'.
So either take on the 'hashgacha' yourself (l'see'tos'cha)or bud out of such 'narisheh' issues (there are 100's of questionable hashgachas that you never said a word about).

ReplyDeleteNever has a problem
The OU Poskim told me that they would never allow certifying any cruise ship due to all the immodest behavior that goes on the the ships. For example the casinos and night clubs. Therefore don't waist your time with the OU, find some other hechsher to do all the dirty work. As mentioned, the Star-k is more than happy to get into the kosher cruise bussiness.
ReplyDeleteFort not as bad as Star K running $$$$$$$$ after all the venues dropped by the OU for gay "marriages"
ReplyDeleteThe answer is that NO reliable National or Local (South Florida) Kashrus agency will give hashgacha to a cruise, because it is IMPOSSIBLE to do it right. Some have tried, and they will NEVER do it again.
ReplyDeleteOh, is the Kosherica owner a former canter at a conservative shrine?
ReplyDeleteYudel would be the best hechsher for any cruise ship.
ReplyDeleteHowever, Yudel only posts, blogs and criticizes all.
He should get out of his comfortable home and go down to Miami and do the hashgacha in order to save the thousands of Yidden being "NICHSHAL" in Kashrus.
Thats what the Chofetz Chaim would do!!!!!
Thes cruise ships hold some 5000 people all eating straight treif food, mixed swimming, pritzus, etc.
ReplyDeleteThe so called kosher (wannabes) are some 200 people. How one can expect yudel shain or any other serious kashrus focussed group to try and make a kosher program in this situation is very unrealistic and just fooling themselves and fooling all of the people booking the kosher program.
The chofetz chaim will never consider turning the treif chazer into a fake kosher program.
ReplyDeleteYudel why don't you publish the letter signed by Rav Vosner Rav Chaim Rav Silmam Rav Nissen Korelitz and many other Gedolim against the Tamar Epstien heter
ReplyDeleteWill tamar and adam be on the cruise?
ReplyDeleteThe toilets are not electric.
ReplyDeleteWhy doesn't Yudel go port to port to check it out?
ReplyDeleteWhy is he giving the dirty work to others?
Update: since Yudel first wrote this post about these Open Schmorthodox rabbis, Marc Schneier was finally thrown out of the Rabbonus by the OU and the Rabbanut in Israel has been trying to throw out Shlomo Riskin. They have some more ammunition now after Riskin just spoke at the latest radical feminist JOFA conference. Where before he was already ordaining women as "rabbis" he is now pushing for "dayanot" & for both shteller types to include the mayseh Eretz Mitzrayim women.

Please do not say "ALL" Rabbis from Lakewood.
ReplyDeleteIt does not include You, Rabbi Shain.
Also, why are you pressuring the OU when you should be pressuring the Lakewood Hiachdis or You yourself, Rabbi Shain????
Why do you always push the dirty work unto others?
Are you Lazy?

You think the media has 'fake news'? Just keep on reading this blog. You ain't seen nothing yet!!
ReplyDeleteAcquaintance just retuned from 2 week cruise. Says all was great in every aspect.
ReplyDeleteלאן הגענו - מודדים 'גדולים' על פי מספר הרכבים שלו? באיך מביאים את הרב שטרנבוך לקרית יואל. לנסוע ברכב אחד ופשוט זה לא מתאים, צריך רכב מכובד, אז בואו נסכים שלכבודו של הרב שטרנבוך שליט"א צריך להזמין לו רכב מכובד אם כי מי שיסתכל על איזה רכב הוא נוסע בארץ, כל רכב באמריקה יותר מכובד, אבל נתעלם, השאלה היא, כמה רכבים צריך, האם לא מספיק רכב אחד ואולי אחד לפניו, אז בואו נתפשר אחד לפניו ואחד מאחוריו, זו בדיחה בסאטמאר, כאן מודדים אדמורי"ם ורבנים על פי מספר הרכבים, אז צפו וראו כמה רכבים ואילו מלווים את הרב שטרנבוך לקרית יואל הסאטמארית.
ReplyDeleteבשביל מה? ולמה הארונים גייסו 50 רכבים כאלו שהשיירה תהיה ענקית להוציא לזאלונים את העיניים. כאן נספר לכם למה, בגלל שככה מודדים היום 'גדולים' ו'אדמורי"ם', לצערינו הרב בדור השפל הזה אנו חיים. כינוס כזה עולה הון תועפות, האם זה מצדיק את ההוצאה ולפעמים רוב אנשים נשארים רק עם השאלות.
אין זה סוד כי לאחרונה הרב שטרנבוך מצדד עם הצד האחר בעדה החרדית מי שהם נגד הקנאים, נגד התורה, הוא נגד הטענה כי כל בית שמש קברים, אע"פ שיודע שזה באמת כך ויש שמה קברי ישראל, והוא לאחרונה גם נגד הטענה כי חיים אנו עם חידוש גזירת גיוס השמד והזימה, הוא מצדד בעמדת האדמו"ר האהרוני מסאטמאר, והרבה ואולי אפי' רוב חלקים בעדה החרדית מתנגדים לשיטתו, כמו הקנאים, נטורי קרתא, והזאלונים וכו', ולגיטימי הוא להתנגד לדעתו ושיטתו של הרב החופר קברים, ובשל כך מתירים למלאות את הרחובות בפשקווילים של שם רשעים ירקב, ולמלאות את הקירות בגרפיטי משה שטרנבוך ימח שמו, ועוד מילים כאלו, וקול דמי אחיך צועקים מן האדמה - מהקברים בבית שמש.
שימו לב אים שופ ברירה, ולכך הם כותבים על הרב שטרנבוך כמו שהם כותבים על בן גוריון ודומיו, הרחובות מלאים בפשקווילים של שם רשעים ירקב, מקללים אותו בקללת ימח שמו כותבים עליו כל דבר אסור, מישהו אף חיבר קונטרס שלם להוכיח כי הרב שטרנבוך ציוני, מצאו מה שכתב בשנת תשכ"ז לאחר ששחררו את הכותל המערבי ומוכיחים כי הוא ציוני ואף גרוע מהם, מכנים אותו חופר קברים ועוד כינויים כאלו.
הרב שטרנבוך יהיה בשבת במונסי ויתאכסן באכסניה היכן שהתאכסן הרב שטיינמן זצ"ל - היאומן? כאילוי אין שום מקום אחר... ולמעשה: אולי הפגיעה הקשה בהרב שטרנבוך, שהיא שפלה ונבזית ומכוערת, תלמד את מי שצריך, לכבד את דעת תורותינו הקדושה, ולא להקל על כל דבר בהלכה ובהשקפה, רק בשביל כצת כסף וכבוד וכדומה. החינוך החרדי בעולם כולו בסכנה גדולה בגלל כמה רבנים המקילים בכל דבר שבקדושה
לפי הסיפור של *גפני אם לא היתי יודע מי-זה מרן הגאון הצדיק ר' חיים היתי מצייר אותו בתור אחד עם גי'נס וחולצה טריקו' שמקדימה תמונה של ליאון ומאחורה ציור של עינת קאליש.... כן ממש כך.... ..... .... ... ... ... ... ...

If Yudel is so relevant why was he left off the Dais at the Siyum? Rabbi Krohn was pretty much involved .
ReplyDeleteYudel GO AWAY !!
"why was he left off the Dais at the Siyum?"
ReplyDeleteThe Agudah does not rank al pi who is raooy.
And go through the list of honorees at the annual Agudah dinners to see how many of them have been in trouble with the law or otherwise have reputations as 'fragrant' as the toilets at Satmar Rodney!
'Better' yet, check out who's been picked to give the ETHICS workshops at the Agudah Fressing Conventions. Off the bat, a couple of them are Dovid Schick of ponzi scam infamy & Dokter Rabbiner Kurtzer from Monsey-Scranton who 2 days after he was picked to be the pro-virus guru at Pechter's yeshiva, the FBI dragged him away in handcuffs.
Mr Schlick’s big Avairah was that he followed all the advice from all the Yudel’s in town.
ReplyDeleteHe did NOT talk as opposed to all the heiligeh posters and commenters on this blog who don’t know when to stop talking, bashmootzing and otherwise be nasty.
Nice try to cover up for Schick.
ReplyDeleteBut these are the facts:
When he was arrested his son nebich couldn't get out of his bed in the Brisker dirah for 3 days.
When reporters asked the US Attorney in Florida why he wasn't in jail so much after he was sentenced for the ponzi scam, she said because he is massering on loads of heimishe Yidden with actionable information & as long as keeps zinging mit chazzonus he is valuable enough to the Justice Dept to give him a get out of jail free card.
Ober fort the grubba ganav organized another ponzi behind the govt's back so they threw in jail anyway at that point.
A major Rosh Kollel spoke against Schick in his Shabbos Shuva Drosha as nit nor er ganvent fun unzerra haymishe ober afilu fun keren yesomim v'almonos.
A dray kop farfrumt college professor who thinks he wrote a virtual sefer assering everything the Chofetz Chaim was mattir made a tummel against the Rosh Kollel for slamming Schick.
Hey professor, is that you in the above comment Thurs 9:54 pm?
Unlike Dec 24, 9:54 pm, no one is interested in talking to a grubbeh goniv like David Schick, which is why David switched from a heimishe shul to an old style Amerikanner one where people didn't know who he was.
ReplyDeleteSchick wasn't the only one with such problemmen in Brisk.
ReplyDeleteThat's why my old hangout Yeshiva of Spring Valley doesn't listen to the gedolim to take kids with no yeshiva into their big abundance of free space. YSV also has a cheshbon that's "l'sheim Shomayim", that if the kids go off the derech from no yeshiva & thus never make it to Brisk, they won't be stuck in bed in the Brisker dira when their father is arrested or skips town from toizent heimisher who want to kill him.
Yeh right. The only non-problem shock has is with Briskehs. Wonder why?????
DeleteOnce again there are 10’s of Yeshivah sin Monsey area. Why blame YSV?
ReplyDeleteAnswer very simple. This guy has a agenda with YSV.
Period.
Quite obvious.
.... my old hangout Yeshiva of Spring Valley....
ReplyDeleteSounds like ONLY YSV has to accept “kol zuv v’chol tzaruah”.
Why this so is beyond reason.
But sounds like they tried to be nice in past and accept all, especially this zuv guy, but the results are not pretty.
Now this zuv is trying to push in all his tzaruah friends to YSV without success - thus he’s mad as a red hen at world in general and YSV in particular.
And uses Yudels as a venting outlet.
Nu.Nu. Yodel is a nice guy and let’s all vent on his blog.
It's very simple why YSV gets tisha kavin of the petch despite not being the only place in Monsey ignoring the gedolim, certainly worse in their case because they have a huge abundance of empty space while Yiddishe kinder are out in the streets. They are also the most cruel when refusing.
ReplyDeleteYSV has many ugly behaviors, mentioned above & below, that the other shvantzes are not guilty of.
What other yeshiva besides YSV went to bat for their nunter yedid Moish Finkel & used bats against anyone trying to expose the treif being metamtem gantz Monsey & beyond?
What other yeshiva besides YSV has a Board full of grubbeh ganuvim & an Esavnik who brags he goes bear hunting in Maine?
What other yeshiva besides YSV followed Philly's death march to the last possible second before the Sheriff arrested Yudi Frankel so that 2 Morahs were niftar from the virus & a beloved melamed put in a covid induced stroke & coma?
How many yeshivos besides YSV LIED pathetic LIES to cover up for themselves & Philly after the fact?
How many girls schools besides YSV have many maydelach walking around nisht tzniusdik in the summer - including right in front of the campus?
How many gangsters (outside Lakewood) besides YSV trashed Rechnitz for justly criticizing the Lakewood bunch?
How many yeshivos besides YSV eagerly take a menuvol like Ari Nagel from Moses Tendler's shul while refusing kids of bnei Torah?
Der anti YSV hoont chooses to ignore all the Hidden Tuna Baigels sending their kids to the “Hasid Places” and with their “holier then thou KOOSHEH Mizimen” get their kids into where ever they want and do kol dovir oosir that the Chaideh looks away due to the mizimen. ( which for some ODD reason don’t work at YSV).
DeleteDenim, scandals, tarfis, nekaivehs and who knows what else...oh forgot Atlantic City mitten baseball hit inn deh paious inteh deh oiren so kaineh vais nish ahs ich bin ah chooses.
Let’s not forget the extra long caddy vans mit deh shvartzeh vindows inn Hatzooleh plackards so they can park wherever they want.

Don’t tell us who belongs in YSV. They can go to any other chaideh in metro Monsey.
But for hater personalities ah Dutch gehvaikt mitt sineh they vent their hatred to YSV since they don’t plan to apply there anyway and are trying to shift the blame to all others but themself ie the yudel blogger right here.
What takkeh happened to YSV over the years that it transformed from a cheder & Bais Yaakov to what looks like a right wing modern orthodox school? I speak from attire & appearance of the parents & kids. This includes fathers in denim jeans who speak gutter language swear words.
ReplyDeleteThe mashgiach doesn't need any other reason to shill for YSV besides that R' Yudel is not fond of the place. Because the mashgiach is a meshugenna l'davar echod: R' Yudel not fond? Then the mashgiach is the biggest supporter!
ReplyDeleteHowever, it may happen to be in this case that the mashgiach also has a personal motive to attack YSV critics after all.
Didn't the mashgiach learn in Beis Shraga? As he's no stranger to the Monsey scene, he may be trying to protect someone he knows like Rav Breslauer or one of the clueless YSV rebbeyim who were "mashgichei kashrus" while Finkel transacted more treif than the Gross Domestic Product (pun intended) of Queens vu der mashgiach voint.
Considering that Reb Yudel is a old money boy, YSV just follows his advice of rejecting any family that did Kosherica. And in Money’s chasidish crowd there are many.
ReplyDelete"fathers in denim jeans who speak gutter language swear words"
ReplyDeleteIs that the shnit who send to Brown's playgroup on Darby before the kids graduate to YSV?
One of the YSV jeans mit nivul peh chevra who I unfortunately know, never even learned in a real yeshiva. He went to one of those tour outfits in Eretz Yisroel who call themselves a yeshiva. He grew up in Monsey. His father is one of the dudes who came into wealth by stealing it & thereby earning a criminal record.
This ferd in jeans doesn't know how to learn & his 'chasheevis' is bestowed on him through his father's thievery - but he mouths off: "Who are all these mishpochos coming to YSV from Brooklyn? No one knows who they are. WE have to check them out. YSV should have a very tough application process"
The Yeshiva of Spring Valley defender is either lying or working with very old information from before the banditten threw out the founding mishpocha & stole the buildings.
ReplyDeleteOnly 5% of today's student body could fit in the other yeshivos - & even those are mostly kids of the rebbeyim & moros - that's how low YSV has sunk. The competition now for YSV is Darkei Nowhere, I mean Noam, and even Asha"r (Adolph Schreiber Academy Rockland). Darkei was just sold by the Agudah's Twitter Rebbe to the Agudah rabbi of Wesley Hills - Rudinsky.
YSV absolutely does turn away many that don't have a yeshiva. While Rebbitzen Kokis would prefer the bnei Torah types to come she does hint to them that they'll be in the minority. But the corrupt Board & their puppet Frankel treat the bnei Torah like they do anyone else who is considered garbage in their twisted, full of rishus eyes.
YSV isn't farkoift on mezimen you say? Wake up! Everything from the fake Board elections to who has registration kadima to who gets to ignore all the rules, reeks from interen tish. And find out how many gedolim were left mevuzeh by Sruli Orzel & Frankel. They put on a show for the parent body that they worship R' Shmuel K, but even him they don't listen to when they don't feel like it
All your fake Tzoiah about YSV is Nebach the unfake truth about many of the other sheine moidos in deh heiligeh Monsey - Ir ve’aim b’ Yisrooel.
DeleteDidn’t know that Bates is also ah Poipe?
ReplyDeleteIt takes one to know one. You wear the (cardboard) shtramil on Bates but your never home to wear that cardboard and the jeans are never home either. That goes with you were ever you go. The cardboard can stay home.
Just because Reb Yudel is not fond of a place NEVER stopped from yakking about them.
ReplyDeleteHe is not fond of anything - that is his personality but what’s your excuse?
she has no business being in chinuch or child care oif darby dort!
ReplyDeleteshe's not licensed and if she was licensed she would be revoked in a minute flat
there are another couple improper playgroups in the geggen & the only licensed one of the bunch was takka under State probation for years for things detrimental to the kids, but the yenta on darby is the worst
in gantz monsey there is a problem of too few playgroups. that's why when you find a place with openings it's virtually always because the baalebusta is a maniac
playgroups is a very easy industry for the yentas to get into when they can't hold down any other job altz being maniacs. these yentas wouldn't even last bagging the kokosh for "mommy" at evergreen. you might be surprised but there are horror stories how the yentas tried & sometimes succeeded destroying random kids they victimized to prevent them from continuing at a cheder or bais yaakov. the worst one, all of her kids are learning disabled, which she advertises she is "proud" of. derveil misery loves company so she tries to drag other kids into it. you have no idea what kind of damage these sick yentas can inflict at a playgroup. they start by isolating the victims to not play or have activities like the other kids. they invent non-existent 'disabilities' to badmouth the victims to every parent & therapist of other kids who walks in. then when the upcoming cheder or bais yaakov comes to observe the kid, it's mamash an assassination from all the motzee shem ra the yenta tells them while buttonholing the poor kid beyodayim to maximize the bashmutzing
because these yentas answer to no one there is also all kinds of genayvos where they take money upfront for dates that dont end up being provided, like last minute declared vacations, and they refuse to refund any of the money
Didn’t know that the Kranke neshoomeh fin CooCooGrardn coins himself as Yentah numero Uno.
ReplyDeleteThe new nickname of yener OU mashgiach is the Kranke neshoomeh?
ReplyDeleteThat's interesting! And appropriate!!
You mean Kosherica did not hire Reb Yudel for Hashgacha once again ?!!??!
ReplyDeleteOh then he is right. It’s not kosher. Never was Kosher. Never will be Kosher.
New commercial line of fish balls made from whitefish under R' Usher Eckstein.
ReplyDeleteIs he makpid not to allow anisakis?
Maybe instead of the cruise ships ..people should just fly to the destinations and avoid many of the above issues
ReplyDeletePescatarian is referring to this fish store on 16th Ave in Boro Park which is commercially selling the Belzer Dayan's whitefish balls as a frozen product in supermarket freezers.
ReplyDeletehttps://www.fish2dish.com/
It's takka a good question if Rav Eckstein's makpid on worms considering all the murmurs of him being a big maykil bichlal.
Rav Usher Ekstein cares about the Franklins, the check should be payable to the moisoid, the worms in fish is not visible.
ReplyDeleteSome Monsey gesheften have raised cholov Yisroel cheese prices by FIFTY % & significantly increased the upcharge for small packs vs 2 lb packs!
ReplyDeleteCorresponding "logic" of the OU mashgiach from Queens who doesn't let any comment "Shain" agrees with to go uncontested:
ReplyDeleteAny complaint against yeshivos is made up and even if it isn't, it must be argued away until no one remembers what the original argument was about. It also doesn't matter where the yeshiva is - just accuse the critic of being a Tuna Beigel from Monsey who couldn't get his kid in after he was rejected by YSV (whether during or after the reign of YSV President Moish Finkel).
Any complaint against molesters is the work of terrorists who must be refuted lest they turn their attention to the mechuton.
Complaints about cholov Yisroel so called rip off ganuvim are certainly bogus. A good tactic to discredit the critic is to accuse him of making it up after he tried shnorring the product for free and was rebuffed, so the false overcharging rumor is his way of getting even. Besides, covering up any real rip off scandals also serves as providing cover for middle man WEST SIDE KOSHER!
The companies gave notice that dairy items will rise in price - just like all other foods did - kosher or not, Heimish or Chesedish.
ReplyDeleteWhy CooCooRiCoo would complain or comment on this subject is only due to a candy/pills OD. He never pays for anything anyway it’s all Chesed shel Emes since no one can expect anything in return.
