Why Am Shalem is a good Alternative for Members of the Religious Zionist And Haredi Communities

By Boruch Rizel | MARCH 19, 2021 Most Religious Zionists I know are voting for either Yamina or Hatzionut Hadatit. And Most Haredim I know will be voting for either Yahadut Hatorah or Shas. The Am Shalem party which is led by Rabbi Haim Amsalem I feel is a great alternative for both of these communities. The reason being that Rabbi Haim Amsalem wants to represent both and even those who are part of The Traditional Camp of the Israeli Jewish Community. He represents the approach of Torah U'Paranassa and wants everyone who wants to have both to have a much better life in this beautiful country of ours. Rabbi Amsalem can be alternative for the Religious Zionist as because he wants to continue the tradition of Am Yisrael, b'Eretz Yisrael, al pi Torat Yisrael. He wants Haredi women who are upset that because they are religious they can't a Knesset Member like them represent them feel like they have home because the number 2 on his party slate is   Mrs. Hila Chasan Lefkovitz who ...

  | THE LENS | THE LENS: A NEW GENERATION OF LEADERSHIP IN BRISK   By  Mishpacha Staff   | MARCH 10, 2021 Email Prin The new rosh yeshivah, Rav Yitzchok Zev Soloveitchik, in the matzah bakery T here are many pictures that speak of succession, a son taking his place at the head of a chassidic tish, or saying shiur klali in yeshivah in place of a departed father. But in Brisk, the picture that spoke of a new generation of leadership after Rav Dovid Soloveitchik’s passing last month at 99 showed the new rosh yeshivah, Rav Yitzchok Zev Soloveitchik, in the matzah bakery. Rav Velvel is standing in his father’s customary place, reflecting the zeal and focus with which Rav Dovid ztz”l would stand guard at his holy post.   (Originally featured in Mishpacha and all the credit goes to them, Issue 852)
