Remember that guy I wrote about last week who was setting up a Haredi tent protest but charging 150NIS for people to join?

Turns out he does not have the [silent] rabbinic support he thought he had...

Kikar is reporting that a list of rabbonim, including the rav of the Shmuel HaNavi neighborhood, which is where the Haredi tent protest was going to be located, has come out strongly against the idea, saying that the tent protest can lead to chinuch problems. The rabbonim told him that if he proceeds with the tent protest they will sue him in beis din.

The article does not say what the din torah would be about. To force him to stop? to pay for some sort of damages, such as to the childrens' chinuch, or maybe to the neighborhood reputation? I am not sure, but probably to force him to stop.

Yishai Ohana, the entrepreneur behind the idea of the Haredi tent protest, isn't going to let a little bit of rabbinic opposition stop him. He has responded saying that he is in negotiations with the rabbonim to try to work it out in a way that they will support him, but if they will not allow it, he will simply move it to a different location in Ramat Eshkol instead of Shmuel HaNavi.

So, if he ignores the rabbonim who tell him to stop, can it still be considered a Haredi tent protest or will it have become just a general tent protest?
