How exactly can one become Tahor if in the process of going into the Mikvah he is holding a mouse?
They were begging for it.
Good for them thats the only way to deal with these animals
#2 – Michael B. Should we bring ourselves to their level because they were “begging for it”?
The hilonim are our enemies. Eretz Yisrael isn’t big enough for the hiloni Jews and the Bnei Torah. It’s either us or them. If we don’t push back, they will keep pushing until they achieve their goal of removing Torah from Eretz Yisrael.
Michael B #2 is making an understatement. They deserved it after having physically harassed the people at the kapporos center.

עם עקש תתפל
ראוי להסביר מדוע “עם נבר – תתבר” אשר לכאורה זו מידה כנגד מידה, ואילו עם עקש לא נאמר תתעקש אלא תתפל ?
בפרשת האזינו כתוב הפסוק ה”מקורי” :
“שחת לו ? לא ! בניו מומם ! דור עקש ופתלתל !”
רואים שעקש שונה בהגדרתו אך בכל זאת דומה לפתלתל.
רש”י מסביר על המקום שני הסברים :
א. “עקש – עקום ומעוקל, כמו :”ואת הישרה יעקשו”…
כלומר : מי שסוטה מהדרך הישרה.
ב. “ופתלתל – כפתיל הזה שגודלין אותו ומקיפין אותו סביבות הגדיל”.
ג. “פתלתל – מן התיבות הכפולות, כמו : ירקרק אדמדם…”
כלומר : א. לא די שאינו ישר, אלא במקום להתישר, מסתובב סחור סחור ואינו שב ומתישר. ב. זהו אי יושר כפול !
לא די שהפתלתל אינו ישר, הוא גם אינו רוצה לשוב בתשובה ולהתישר וא”כ חטאו כפול.
זו הסיבה ש”עם עקש תתפתל” ( ראה המקבילה בתנ”ך ), מי שאינו ישר, מידה כנגד מידה שלו היא שמונעים ממנו לשוב ומאפשרים לו להמשיך לחטוא !
והדבר מאד יפה גם ברמזי התורה, כי “עקש” בגימטריא 470, ו”פתלתל” בגימטריא 940, בדיוק כפול, שהרי כדברי רש”י, זו מן התיבות הכפולות… כפתור ופרח !
To whom this may concern:
There was widespread support for animal welfare in Nazi Germany,
and the Nazis took a variety of measures to ensure animals were protected. Many Nazi leaders, including Adolf Hitler and Hermann Göring, were supporters of animal rights and conservation. Several Nazis were environmentalists, and species protection and animal welfare were significant issues in the Nazi regime. Heinrich Himmler made an effort to ban the hunting of animals. Göring was a professed animal lover and conservationist — though from 1934 he was also Reichsjägermeister (“Master of the Hunt”).
There is a time when men must defend there beliefs and this is it
Because obviously if you are trying to defend a Minhag that some see as violent and brutal (in the way it is currently carried out), the most logical thing to do is act in a violent and brutal manner.[sarcasm = for those who can’t tell]
This video doesn’t show what happened before it.
According to a report at JDN (http://www.jdn.co.il/news/561927), the animal rights people set off tear gas in the direction of the Haredim during their protest action, causing someone there to require medical treatment. If that is so, that explains the extreme reaction in response.
I am not justifying it, but context beyond the video is needed.
They steal the chickens. I’ve seen pictures of it that they posted on their facebook groups.
This video is of animal activists who stole chickens and tried to drive off with them were being attempted to stop their theft and force them to return the stolen chickens in their car before they drove off and disappeared.
If they really were concerned about rights being violated, they would protest in Tel-Aviv about the way women are treated there.
If these ‘activists’ are keeping themselves occupied with “animal rights” on a small scale rather than with Big issues ,we’re all the better off .
We should maybe pay them to keep going
