[VIDEO IN EXTENDED ARTICLE]
In recent weeks, there have been a number of attacks against chareidi IDF soldiers in uniform by chareidim in Beit Shemesh as well as violence directed against police. An attack occurred on 10 Cheshvan during the afternoon hours when a chareidi soldier in uniform was attacked by chareidim. A chareidi officer in plainclothes traveling with his family saw the attack and headed towards the scene. Baruch Hashem he succeeded in extricating the soldier from the mob as both of them were being attacked with rocks.
A week earlier, chareidim held a stormy protest in Beit Shemesh after one member of the community was arrested for not reporting to a draft center. Police were pelted with stones by the chareidim taking part in the protest.
Following the investigations into the above-mentioned events, police during the night of motzei Shabbos arrested three Beit Shemesh residents for attacking the soldier and for violence during the protest against the arrest of the talmid. Two adults are going to be charged with attacking police and a 14-year-old will be charged with attacking the soldier.
After the detainees were processed in the Beit Shemesh police station they were remanded in front of a Jerusalem Magistrate Court.

Finally action against Jewish terrorists!!
Is it really chareidim doing these attacks? Are they mentally ill? Is there wide spread support for this horrifying behavior? I sure would hope not.
they belong in jail for attacking anyone!
To gomu
Yes, they ARE Chareidim. Mentally ill? Maybe one or two. They are so holy they harass elderly women as well. I live in RBSG & I see them infiltrating our community just to start trouble. The problem is, the opponents (& there are many) are too apathetic to take back our streets. So they continue to demand that we stop having smartphones and Internet, keep blocking streets on Shabbos, and harassing IDF & police – which is why we never see police here (which explains all these successful Shabbos burglaries this past Friday night.)
I was there when the soldier was “attacked”. The attack consisted of yelling Chardak get out of our neighborhood. For that they have their door broken down at four in the morning by the Israeli KGB
Computer bum: are you saying that stones were not thrown? Are you telling us that they didn’t need to be extricated? Come off it. Unless you are one of them hooligans, you should be ashamed of yourself trying to defend these so-called chareidim (no computerbubby, they are NOT chareidim. They are disgusting beings pretending to be Chareidim). And if you ARE one of those disgraceful hooligans, there is a lot more for you to be ashamed of.
#1 Using the term “Jewish Terrorists” on HOLY JEWS for “calling” someone Chardakim is sheer chutzpah. Do you have a better terminology for Chareidi-Kal-Taas who are out to shlep yeshiva boys into the army and secularize them than Chardakim?
BTW Verbal Abuse is TERROR also Mr computer.
#6 You should be ashamed of yourself for accusing religious Jews of something they didn’t do. Your only proof is anti-chareidi news.
99.99% of the time there are no stones thrown unless there’s a secular provocateur impersonating as Chareidi who does it. Just the other week people witnessed a woman police officer stuffing a stone in a pocket of a hand-cuffed chareidi. What do you say to that? Who’s disgusting?
As a Beit Shemesh resident with a son in the army, I can confirm that name-calling, stone-throwing, and other harassment of soldiers passing through RBS B DOES take place. I can also confirm that the thugs from RBS B do, at times, come to RBS A to harass residents there as well – including hanging out at the local Ulam Sport (a community recreation center where various exercise classes are given) when there was a job fair taking place there to yell at the ones going in and out. When my then-11-year-old-daughter came out of her class – dressed completely according to Halacha – they immediately started calling her names like Shikse, Pritze.
So, yes, these are the “holy Chareidim” of RBS B, and those that don’t agree with them have an obligation to protest and not remain silent. After all, Ya’akov Avinu felt the need to protest the actions of his generation’s Kana’im, even when they were his own sons – “Besodam – al tavo nafshi, u’vkehalam – al techar kevodi”. Ma’ase Avos, Siman laBanim, no?
