this attempt to lay blame and responsibility for someone's mistakes and wrongdoings is so trivial and sad... Metzger himself is to blame. who cares about how he became a rabbi? What difference does it make if it was Rav Elyashiv behind his appointment, or if he came out of the DL yeshiva system - both are true, so does one bear more responsibility than the other?

Going further than the argument in the video, over Metzger himself, is who deserves to be called a rabbi, in light of the fight over the alternate conversion beis din established by a group of Dati Leumi rabbonim,. I am not going to offer an opinion as to who is right and who is wrong in that fight, but I, once again, find the irony striking in the fight:
the haredim, who really reject the rabbanut, are out there defending it like lions, against the dl who normally follow the rabbanut but right now are somewhat separating from it. Furthermore, the haredi community does just about the same thing. They have their own batei din for kashrut, weddings, divorce, conversion and everything else and refuse to trust the rabbanut. Yet when the dl start to do basically the same thing, the haredim get upset
