A letter is being circulated in chareidi areas of Yerushalayim on Election Day morning in the name of HaGaon HaRav Chaim Kanievsky Shlita regarding the gadol hador’s position on Bnei Torah. The letter states the rav retracts his harsh words regarding the Bnei Torah party that is a split off from Degel Hatorah.
Bnei Brak states the rav did not write or sign the letter, expressing outrage over unprecedented chutzpah to forge Rav Chaim’s name to such a letter.
Some feel Bnei Torah activists are behind the letter. Party officials deny any connection to the bogus letter.

Truly shocking!
Someone, for their own purposes, puts the signature of a Godol on a letter he never saw?
Unprecedented!
(OK, not exactly unprecedented, but the first time this week.)
“Bnei Brak states the rav did not write or sign the letter, expressing outrage over unprecedented chutzpah to forge Rav Chaim’s name to such a letter.”
WHo is Bnei Brak? Did the entire city make this statement? Some specifics would be welcome.
Maran Shlit”a of Beit Shemesh calls for an increase in limud Hatorah and Mussar. Of course some ACHDUS as well.May we merit Moshiach speedily!!
Dear moderator, I think you should blame Satmar again, the same way you said you know by last time by the protest.
