A shocking incident occurred Tuesday night at the "Hichelei Ha'Par" hall in Bnei Brak during the wedding of the son of the Rebbe of Lipnik. The Rebbe of Strykov was reportedly attacked by a fringe group as he was leaving the venue around 11:15 PM. Witnesses described the assault as violent, during which the Rebbe's hat fell off his head. This event follows a similar alleged attack on the Rebbe of Karlin-Stolin earlier in the week. The article condemns the violence, stating that while disagreements are permissible, violence against rabbis and Torah scholars is unacceptable and contrary to the ways of the Torah, which are paths of pleasantness. The author questions the state of public discourse and behavior, emphasizing that violence is a red line that should never be crossed, especially against religious leaders.
