Prayer Rally Tomorrow (Wednesday) in Hebron - No One Should Be Absent!

Prayer Rally in Hebron for the Rescue and Release of Our Teacher, the Tzaddik, Rav Eliezer Berland shlit"a

The persecution against the Tzaddik, Rav Eliezer Berland shlit"a, and his followers has crossed every boundary. The following words may seem extreme in their harsh content, but we have verified them thoroughly and they are accurate. Rabbi Aharon Berkowitz shlit"a, the prayer leader for the Breslov community at all the massive rallies, is an elderly man known as a great G-d-fearing person. Yes, the same tzaddik who leads the recitation of the Tikkun HaKlali at the rallies was summoned for police interrogation. The very summons was puzzling, as he is a servant of Hashem who distances himself from all publicity (a former soldier in the Sayeret Matkal special forces) - and the investigator explicitly said to him, 'I am waiting to see your blood spilled on the floor.'

The masses of the House of Israel, who owe so much to Rav Berland shlit"a for all the good that the tzaddik does for us—the tzaddik who sacrifices his soul every moment of his life to redeem the souls of Israel—are called to the massive rally for Rav Berland shlit"a in the City of the Patriarchs, Hebron.

The rally will take place at the foot of the Cave of the Patriarchs on Wednesday of this week, Parashat Yitro, 17 Shevat 5780, February 12, 2020, at 9:00 PM - Further details on the Breslov line *9148

As is known, the fire of controversy and persecution is fueled by wicked people who presume to call themselves Haredim, who push and direct the police with false information that they inflate, using it to create a negative atmosphere against the Rav.

We all must gather at the prayer rally taking place on the eve of the hearing for another remand of Rav Berland shlit"a.

To convey some of the feelings from the last twenty-four hours among the tens of thousands in the nation of Israel—those who are not necessarily counted among the followers and students identified with Rav Berland shlit"a, but are connected to him with great appreciation and love—we bring you lines that express the utter disgust with the entire harsh campaign against Rav Berland and the members of his community.

Father, Father, Father.

Until when will evil rule over the good?

I woke up in the morning and saw the videos showing how they arrested Rav Eliezer Berland shlit"a. I am full of tears, not as his student and not as one who belongs to his followers.

How is it possible that a person who all his life (everyone knows) has engaged in the study of Torah, prayer, and kindness to others—gave up his own and transferred it to others?

It is painful to see how the Jewish state treats people, and in particular a person such as this, who is worthy of infinite appreciation.

What is most painful is that evil is ruling again. To see people who rejoice in this, who are partners to the crime and call themselves 'erliche Yidden' (honest Jews) and Breslov Chassidim.

Oy, Tatte (Father).

Until when will evil rule? When will we see the truth come to light? When will we receive our Mashiach ben David and the light of truth be revealed?! Then the zealotry for the truth will be distinguished from the zealotry of the other side.

Our holy Rebbe Nachman is the one who warned that no Jew has the right to rebuke other Jews, and how can there be people who call themselves Chassidim and behave in the exact opposite way? This is a Chillul Hashem (desecration of Hashem's name) and a desecration of our Rebbe's name!

Father, I believe that You hear us, and I believe that You see the tears.

Return to us the grace of a simple Breslov Jew and remove the control from the hands of the wrong people. Please help all of Israel so that only true zealotry will rule.

And G-d forbid that the Torah of this Jew (Rav Berland) should be harmed. This Jew is saturated with Torah and fear of Heaven, and his prayers will be accepted, and all the good that he has left and inspires in the world and his people will tip the scales to the good and not, G-d forbid, to the bad.

And may He rebuild for us our Holy Temple speedily, and we will await and receive our Mashiach ben David speedily.

Because we can no longer bear it.
