Another Story For All To Know

As support for his administration continues to erode, Moshe Rubashkin persists in fomenting machlokis and division in the community. For many weeks he has been trying to buy the Levi aliya on Shavuos in 770 for his hand-picked "Rav" Shlomo Segal. This is part of his continuing campaign to destroy the authority of the Beis Din by exacerbating the tensions between the Rabbonim, and by causing confusion as to who are the Rabbonim.


The Gabboim decided that, as long as the matter has not been settled by an impartial Din Torah, they will not allow the Aliyas in 770 to be used as a weapon in the machlokis over whether R. Segal's election was valid. They therefore refused to give the aliya to R. Segal.


Rubashkin has now threatened that, if the aliya does not go to Segal, he will have Rabbi Osdoba order the Gabboim to pull out of the lawsuit with Krinsky and give Krinsky control over 770.
