1. Amazing things happen when Jews act with self respect.,
Chaim ,   Israel   (12.18.12)
When Jews act with self respect, instead of grovelling and begging for approval, amazing things happen. This is true in all respects; especially with regard to Jews claiming our rights to ALL of our sole tiny Homeland.
2. wishful thinking
Bluegrass Picker ,   Afula   (12.18.12)
raise your hand if you agree that having Chabadniks dressed like 17-century Polish nobility, pretending to be Afrikan hipsters.... influences anyone in a good direction. Those rabbis belong in a Lishkat Giyus.
3. 1 - What amazing things ? ,...
split ,   US   (12.19.12)
What storm ??? ,...
4.  A.Einstein said: Dancers are ...
ORA ,   JERUSALEM   (12.19.12)
athletes of G-d. These Rabbis are much grander. They are the interpreters of G-D , as they are expressing the language of the soul, in their dance.
5. Much better than the rabbis of Shas and UT
Mark ,   London, UK   (12.19.12)
6. dear Rabbi's! Please lose the belly fat!
Yuk !   (12.19.12)
that will definitely help the image of Judaism !
7. 2 - dressed like 17-century Polish nobility,
split ,   US   (12.19.12)
Why don't you check it first how nobility dressed in 17 century Poland? But I agree it's pathetic ,...
8. #3. Amazing Things Like 6 Days War, Entebbe...
Chaim   (12.19.12)
#3. When Jews act with self respect, amazing things like the 6 Days War and Entebbe happen. Our enemies are quickly and decisively vanquished. All Israel needs to do to end the problem of "Palestinian" poseurs once and for all is to act with strength and self respect. Send them packing!
9. "Dancing is a sign of joy... ."
Zvi   (12.19.12)
Exactly. And joy is infectious, and sharing joy with others borders on a mitzvah. It's wonderful to see these rabbis sharing their joy with the world.
10. @9 Mozel tov! What if could get priests of all religions?
Miron ,   USA   (12.19.12)
Let's see if we can beat a few fleas out of ole coat... The fear The hate The divisions ... The oldest settlers who occupied every golden roof of the Temple of Ierushalaim sitting on every pair of shoulders.
11. Well good for them
Haim ,   TA   (12.19.12)
Presents a friendly side that unfortuently we dont see here in Israel
12. 7
(12.19.12)
well, split, i guess we religious jews and our clothes cannot compare to the burkas and shadoors of islam, especially those face covers in afghanistan with nets over them??? yep, that is right. muslim garb is so in vogue and so "respectful" of their women....it goes well with beheadings, women stoning to death and beatings...the muslim way!
13. #3, split, are you hallucinating again?
Jake   (12.19.12)
Where, WHERE does the word "storm" appear in #1's post???
14. #7 But Arafat's keffiyeh and Hamas ski masks are cool?
Jake   (12.19.12)
I prefer the black hats to a rag with a pattern thats looks like a cross between a rattlesnake skin and a spider's web
15. Takes guts (yes, even a little too much gut, #6) to do that
(12.19.12)
It's kinda dorky, admittedly, but it took real courage for those guys to get out there and boogie in front of everyone like that. I'd imagine, #6, that you're quite in shape and nobody would ever look at you and think "Yuk!" if you shake it at some disco, right? Listen, these Rabbis know that we "Haredi/Ultra-Orthodox" (whatever derogatory name you've applied to us - because we sure didn't pick those) have gotten a supremely BAD rap because of the unfortunately high-profile bad apples. So -- they try to make up for it a bit by being accessable and NICE and put themselves, their egos out there for......your merciless ridicule. Gee.
16. Like. One suggestion:
R ,   Israel   (12.20.12)
A bit more practice with a correographer, but nevertheless, very nice!
17. This is wonderful!
Reuven   (12.21.12)
