This is the same individual who two weeks ago walked into a store near Meah Shearim and demanded that the owner turnoff the “Goyish music”, and pointed to the woman behind the counter and told her to “dress more Tzniyus”. He also called women “Shiksas”, spit a few times and yelled about i-Phones.

Shameful chareidi behavior. The opposite of achdus
Es felt meshugoim? In case of an attack CH”V, who will save them if NOT the CHADRAK? How could they be so “kofu tova”? They should be deported to the west bank into an Arab town!
Why is it necessary to give media exposure to all the crackpots in the Chareidi world? This guy, or the Neturei Karta clowns in the U.S. and in Europe. Does it make YWN feel good to publicize these phenomenon? Do you think you are going to change them? Or change the behavior of the Peleg Yerushalmi? You know that won’t happen. So, why spread all this non-news that only serves to defame the Chareidi tzibbur. The mainstream Chareidi world doesn’t like or want these kinds of phenomenon. Would you like the gedolei harabbonim shlit”a to issue a ban on mishegoyim? We need to beseech Hashem to send Moshiach, who will end all of our tzoros, including these. Spreading mud the world over is not doing any good.
Welcome to Eretz Yisrael. The Chareidi community here has its positive aspects, and unfortunately, its negative ones. One would have imagined that by
The last incomplete sentence in post #3 should be disregarded.
The individual in question is obviously mentally deranged. The solider should not physically assault him.
Whatever happened to FREE SPEECH? Is this what is being defended.
Instead, the soldier should have returned the favor in kind by giving this individual a “mi shebeirach” for a “Refuah Sheleimah” of “cholei hanefesh.” I wonder how the individual would have taken that.
To. No. 6
Nothing has happened to “free speech” just as nothing has happened to the right of an IDF chayal to conduct soccer practice with the head or behind of some Chareidi nutcase. Its a shame normal yidden don’t aggressively squash these nutcases, including where necessary, the appropriate amount of physical force to deter their disgusting behavior.
This individual is a known eccentric / mentally disturbed individual. Hitting him with too little force as happened here will not achieve anything. The soldier should have answered ‘vechein lemar Amen”.

די לו לחכימא ברמיזא ולשטיא בחרמיזא
Good for that soldier. Too many of our people need work and exercise to keep them sane too bad this man seems to have neither
Isn’t it ironic that a chareidi was physically assaulted, but it’s the assaulter that is being defended? I would surmise that provoked individuals attacking their provokers are deemed to be justified, if not for the fact that when a similar video was posted here, except that the provokers were soldiers and and attackers (although nowhere near as vicious as this person) were chareidi, the chareidim were the ones being bashed and condemned. What is evident is that this is a biased anti chareidi audience. Down with them stinking archaic zhidden.
Interesting. I believe this to be the same chossid that YWN posted a short while back verbally attacking a woman in a store about her attire.
#12 – I understand your view, but you are forgetting three points.
1) In the case the police officer the police officer was not provoked. The Ben Yeshivah neither attacked the cop physically, nor verbally. Here, on the other hand, the soldier was clearly provoked by the chossid.
2) Police officers are trained to remain calm and restraint. He violated official police policies. Soldiers are trained to kill. The only restraint they are trained for is not to shoot until their officer gives the orders to. Thus, while this soldier’s actions were wrong, his actions were not in violation of any army policy that I am aware of and being that he was not in full uniform he was most likely off duty anyways. That is certainly very different than an on duty cop violating official police policy.
3) In the case of the cop his actions were clearly done out of hatred for Chareidi Jews. In this case, we are talking about a fight between two Chareidi Jews. It is clear that this soldier did not act out of hatred, but rather out of embarrassment by having been shamed publicly.
Keep in mind the following:
A Jew who raises his hands against another Jew is called a “Rasha”.
However, a Jew who shames another Jew publicly “Ain Lo Chelek B’Olam Habah”!
Once again I am not condoning the soldiers actions. I’m just putting things in their proper perspective.
#12, yayin yashan??? feh! you’re wine turned sour – you’ve become a chaddash – like the reform – a gitteh yid at home, but like ‘them’ like a goy on the outside…
is moshe rabbeinu a “stinking archaic zhid” (your words)? you sound like a nazi.
This is Toras Moshe – archaic or not – if you’re a yid, you keep it, and if not – you’re an apostate with all the halochos involved!!!
Could someone explain to me how it’s okay to physically attack someone who insults you??Especially , someone not mentally all there?Yayin, I so agree with you, but the incident I think you are referring to was different when a Israeli soldier on his own actually physically attacked haredi protesters with pepper spray and the protesters certainly had the right to attack back.Why commentators here condemned the haredi protesters I can’t understand.
Disgusting! Is that a way for a soldier to react to words of reproval? No control!
That soldier should repent, what a shanda, kicking a man for words of reproof. Wake up, everyone!
Without Torah EVERY soldier is NOTHING.
