The conversion situation in Eretz Yisroel has deteriorated into a chaotic and unacceptable level.

The battle to maintain acceptable standards is one that requires quite an effort.

The Gedolei Eretz Yisroel are concerned and worried about the lowering of basic standards of conversion.

The Chofetz Chaim & Maran Harav Chaim Ozer,zt'l's yahrtzeit coming up

The Chofetz Chaim's yartzeit is just around the corner.

Many torah leaders are pushing for the jewish community to commit to learning his master work, the laws of gossip.

The deterioration of the observance of these laws is for the most part caused my the internet....google, even those who claim to be orthodox oriented.

Daas torah web site has been noted together with matzav.com as leading the torah world into a zone filled with loshon hora.

The yartzeit of Rav Chaim Ozer zt'l, should be observed by learning from his unlimited selflesness and chesed.

A tumult of Kol Yaakov

A tumult broke out that has threatened the existence of Kol Yaakov of Monsey.


R' Moshe Raice, a hired Employee of Kol Yaakov has decided without any halachic support, that R' Shmuel Gluck, director of Areivim should assume the position of Rosh Yeshiva of Kol Yaakov.


R' Shmuel Gluck is the director of this special 'Kids at risk' program known as areivim. His credentials to be Rosh Yeshiva are at best questionable & against the wishes of many Roshei Yeshiva and a leading Rav in monsey.


This appointment has caused a reaction of astonishment in the monsey community.


We are yet to hear the outcome of this daring action taken by an employee.
