The Litvishe Ethiopians..

Mazel Tov to Rav Reuven Vabeshet (sp?) on being appointed to the position of Chief Rabbi of the Ethiopian community in Israel.
source: Kipa

I just don't get why he is dressed like a Litvishe Ashkenazi Jew, but I guess to each his own.

 If they aspire to be a part of the Litvishe Ashkenazi community, why do they need their own Chief Rabbi?

    I don't know why the need for a "chief" rabbi, but in terms of the European getup, that's what one need to in order to be accepted.

    Just like chickens and cows -- if they don't look like they did in Europe, then they're not authentic.
