Now it makes sense

A friend of mine encountered on the bus a young man who confided in him that he was on his way out of Torah observance. He had grown up in Bene Brak and had a bitter experience there. But not only him, but all six of his siblings were on their way out or long gone. My friend's attempts at kiruv were rejected. I asked, "What language did you speak to him in?" Then came the answer that made it all make sense, "English. His parents are American."

Ah, olim. Another pair of foolish parents that made aliyah and lost all their children. They took them to an Israeli environment that they couldn't handle. This young man reports that his rabbis there told him that he was a loser and he should die. This is the Israeli way of doing kiruv. You have to be Israeli to handle the culture here, even Bene Brak.

Haredi family loses all their children because they succumbed to Modern Orthodox foolishness and moved to Israel.

I know so many stories like this.
