Charedi Flyers Spark Debate on Iran Threat and Nighttime Construction
Controversial flyers distributed in Charedi (ultra-Orthodox) cities have ignited a debate, questioning whether the perceived threat from Iran is already present and if building a Sukkah (a temporary hut used during the Jewish festival of Sukkot) at 2 AM is a religious commandment. The discussion unfolded during the program "Davar Rishon," where Moshe Mans and Shuki Salomon clashed over various issues.
Salomon defended the practice of building a Sukkah late at night, arguing it is logical, while Mans questioned if the Sukkahs had ruined the city of Bnei Brak. The flyers, bearing slogans like "Is Iran Here?" and asking "Is hammering at 2 AM a mitzvah (commandment)?" have become a focal point of the public discourse.
Adding to the program's content, Rabbi Natanel Sharon discussed the month of Tishrei, a significant period in the Jewish calendar, and Rabbi Assaf Razon shared a profound insight from the daily Talmud study. The full program was presented as captivating and engaging.
