Massize Atzeres In The Works To Protest Israel’s Forced Army Conscription For Chareidim

By Mrs. I. Perl

 A massive atzeres is in the works to protest the recent Supreme Court ruling in Israel forcing chareidim to join the army.

Although details are scarce and not completely confirmed yet, the event is said to be scheduled for Sunday, September 22^nd, at a location large enough to accommodate the many thousands of Yidden expected to attend.

The Satmar Rebbe was the first to announce the atzeres, which is being called Zaak’as Hagoleh, at the yartzeit seuda of the previous Satmar Rebbe zt”l, and urged his chassidim to participate in the event.

Yidden from many chassidish and yeshivish communities across the tri-state area are expected to attend the atzeres.
