Porush in bed with Berland, again
The Porushes were always headstrong politicians, did what they felt was right, didn't care what anybody else thought of them, and they were all bulldozers in finding their projects and pushing them through no matter who opposed them. And that has been part of their charm and level of popularity.
While often they use their political dogheadedness for good, or at least for advancing their agendas, sometimes it can be upsetting and frustrating.
Like how Minister Meir Porush has in recent years taken it upon himself to help Eliezer Berland, the rapist, thug, criminal from Breslav in various ways. He ensured that berland would get to light and lead a bonfire for his followers in Meron on Lag B'Omer when in general the lighting were being limited. In recent years Porush has helped Berland get permission to travel to Uman for Rosh Hashana, despite having travel restrictions on his passport due to being convicted for violent crimes. And now once again Meir Porush is stepping up to the plate for Berland.
It turns out Berland is on a no fly list in Ukraine, due to his crimes and convictions. He was given a black passport. Ukraine does not want him there. Porush is stepping up and trying to use his influence to get Berland special permission from Ukraine to travel for Rosh Hashana to Uman. He has so far spoke to the Ukranian Ambassador, but supposedly the Ambassaor said that to make such an exception the Israeli government would have send an official request which it did not do. And I guess it won't because Porush is looking for other ways instead of getting the government to issue a letter. At least some of the other ministers are not willing to help Berland.
So now that the Ambassador protexia route did not pan out, Porush is petitioning the Ukranian courts to get permission for Berland. We'll see how that pans out.
If anything Porush should at least get him permission to go but then not let him return. Leave him stranded outside of Israel. But we know that won't happen.
This is the bad and frustrating side of the Porushes. they dont care what anyone else has to say, so they are willing to even help an evil person like Berland if it behooves them.
When Litmzan helped Malka Leifer evade trial for a long time, eventually he was indicted for it (among other things) and then resigned for politics. I don't know if he is getting something in return for helping Berland or if he is just playing to his constituents but I hope one day he is made to pay for helping such a criminal.

Quote of the Day
Mashiach's definite final arrival date will be 10 Elul this. Mashiach will distribute candies.
-- Eliezer Berland
10 Elul is next week. Get ready.
I dont know how he knows. I dont think a criminal rapist thug like Berland would merit prophecy, but maybe I am wrong. Regardless, this is not the first time Berland is predicting the date of the coming of Mashiach, and he has always been wrong before. Also, is Mashiach a candyman? Is that a prerequisite or will he become one when he announces himself as Mashiach?

letting Berland go
I am amazed that the courts would allow Eliezer Berland to travel to visit Uman for Rosh Hashana. If there is anyone that is the definition of a flight risk it is Eliezer Berland. They are making him put down a nice sum of money but he probably doesnt even care about that no matter the sum, considering he, like all cult leaders, takes money from his followers - it isnt his anyway.
I dont know why or how they approved it, considering who he is, what he has been in jail for, and what he is still under investigation for. And that is before we even consider that Israel is warning citizens to not go to Uman this year.
The only logic that makes sense to me is that they are letting him go and hoping for a Russian attack on the city while he is there so that he will no longer be our problem.

Dancing with the Devil
Sadly, a deal has been struck struck.
Just when you thought that the community had finally decided Berland was beyond the pale and finally fully rejected him, you get a slap of reality in the face.
The news is reporting that head of Shas party Aryeh Deri struck a deal with the Shuvu banim people. In exchange for them instructing their people to vote for Shas, rather than abstain from voting altogether, Deri will obtain a letter from one of the rabbonim on the Rabbinic Council of Shas instructing people to not talk about the Berland situation.
Hush money. Just keep it quiet. We want you to vote for us, so we will tell our people to not talk about the heinous crimes your leader did.
Nobody is quite sure how many votes Shuvu Banim is worth. Some say Berland himself has said in the past that they are several hundred strong, while others in Shuvu Banim claim up to 6000.
Despicable. Dancing with the devil. I hope they realize who they are getting into bed with.

Berland's Shuvu Banim won't vote UTJ
Finally!
Berland has been indicted for the crimes he has been under investigation for, including fraud, extortion, attempts to cause serious harm, and more. The prosecutor also wants Berland's remand to be extended, considering him a flight risk.
source: Maariv
It is about time. Considering all the video evidence readily available and considering all the people upset at him and surely willing to testify, it is wondrous how it took so long to put this together.
In other Berland news, the followers of Berland in Shuvu Banim are upset about a recording of Rav Chaim Kanievsky that recently came to light in which he is heard saying that Berland is crazy. Because of what Rav Kanievsky said, the followers of Berland are threatening to not vote for UTJ and to persuade as many people as possible, anybody connected to Shuvu Banuim and other sects of Breslav that might be sympathetic, to not vote for UTJ in the upcoming elections. Shuvu Banim reps have said that they will do whatever they can to prevent UTJ from getting the 8th mandate they have been trying for.
After that the Shuvu Banim people stepped up their threat to seemingly make it a final decision. Because the UTJ MKs did not speak up and fight on behalf of Berland when he was arrested, they will definitely not participate in the elections. A group of Shuvu Banim rabbis have put out a "kol koreh" calling on the Shuvu Banim to not vote, and also to persuade others, especially family members not part of Shuvu Banim, to also not vote.
If there was one thing that would make me vote for a particular party - if I were a one-issue voter and Berland was my one-issue, this would definitely get me to vote for UTJ.
