[VIDEO IN EXTENDED ARTICLE]
The following are excerpts from an article in the Windsor Times:
Most of the 200 members of a fundamentalist Jewish group – described by critics as cult-like and sometimes referred to as the “Jewish Taliban” – are living in Windsor and Chatham after leaving Quebec amid a high-profile child protection investigation.
The group, called Lev Tahor, left their homes in Sainte-Agathe-des-Monts, Que. last week on three rented buses in the middle of the night.
A youth protection official for the Laurentians region said Friday workers have been actively involved with the group since August – trying to help children suffering from poor hygiene, inadequate housing and unsatisfactory schooling.
But in a crowded motel room near Windsor Airport Sunday, where more than a dozen group members gathered, Nachman Helbrans explained they did not run away, but rather felt it was the best move for the community because staying in Quebec would mean compromising their religious beliefs.
Below is a video of Nachman Helbrans, the son of Lev Tahor cult leader Shlomo Helbrans – who was convicted in 1994 of kidnapping a teenaged boy who had been brought to his Brooklyn yeshiva for bar mitzvah instruction. After serving his prison sentence in 2000, Shlomo was deported to Israel. A year later he arrived in Sainte-Agathe on a temporary visa and soon his followers joined him.

Will not bother watching or listening to a video from a convicted kidnapper…
I know this community. The news articles are biased and inaccurate. The children were not suffering from inadequate housing or poor hygiene. The Quebec gov’t wants school children to learn things that are contrary to our beliefs and they do not want their children to learn about such things so they are being persecuted for that. They left Quebec because the authorities were threatening to take away their children. Why does this article picture a woman with her face covered? The women do not go around with their faces covered in that community.
An obvious result of inbreeding.
There is a reason why he sat in jail… Shows som of his traits. He is continuing with horrible cult bossing and causing a lot lot of agmas nefesh to parents who lost kids to the cult. May G-d avenge the lost souls of this and the other brooklyn cult that caused a lot of distruction Psycological Kidnaping).
Why are anti-Zionists almost always soo ugly? From NK to this group to secular leftists, ugly. Right-wing nationalist Jews are usually attractive.
Their leader, of this Chasidic Cult, this so called “rabbi” Solomon Arez Hell-branz and his son Nuchman may not even be Jewish, who knows. They are cult-leaders a bunch of phony frauds as they have always has been.
Every single Jewish organization on earth has been rebuking them, even in public, as this is no different than the David Koresh cult in Waco, or the Jones-town cult. We should be keeping a spotlight on this fraudster as much as possible and call it what it realy is: “A CULT”.
Their cult “leader” and evil son Nuchman are two VERY dangerous man, who uses mind-control techniques to pray on the weak minded. Plus the child and women abuse. Especially Nuchman his son can not be trusted, he is a big huge lire with out even a drop truth.
Believe it or not, it is VERY easy to start a cult if you want to. All it takes is a few lost souls willing to have a boatload of children for you, and you are in business.
