2. Dealing Drugs on the Sabbath
NYC Girl   (09.15.13)
Why is this any different from the mobsters who went to Mass every Sunday and then went out and committed heinous crimes the other six days of the week?
3. Successful Jews...we could do without.
deavman ,   Acco, Israel   (09.15.13)
4. #3, succcessful?
Jacob E ,   Holon, Israel   (09.15.13)
Successful? I think not. They got caught. Text messages, even if sent using a burner phone can be traced if the phone isn't tossed fast enough. Why not use the wonder of the internet and bring your messages through twitter or something similar? Maybe just a random message board. Or if you want to stick to SMS, there are many sites where you can send texts anonymously. You can even do it through a google mail account. If you say a "batch" of DOB, it's pretty obvious it is drugs, why else would you use a code name for something that comes in a batch? Not the brightest dealers if you ask me.
5. A Comparizon -
Arn. ,   Sweden.   (09.15.13)
A Religious Drugdealer with an Atheistic one - Whom is the Worst ? This is bad PR for the Jews as regarding this article- Arn.Sweden
6. why cant secular israelis learn from these guys
heshi ,   brooklyn ny   (09.15.13)
Why can't secular israelis learn from these guys to at least observe the sabbath. Violating the sabbath is a more severe crime. One is a capital offense while selling drugs will land them in jail for a few years only here in New York.
7. #2 ,...
split ,   US   (09.15.13)
Many mobsters (everywhere) prayed in synagogues if you happen to miss it ,...
8. These creeps deserve death...dealing in dope that
Al   (09.15.13)
ends up destroying lives and families. The damage that drugs do to people is incalculable. They deserve death, and banishment from the Jewish community. No mercy whatsoever for drug dealers..
9. 6 No, high-handed sins are blasphemy (Num. 15.30-31)
Paqid Yirmeyahu ,   netzarim.co.il   (09.15.13)
resulting in excision. pleading on Yom ha-Kipurim lacking teshuvah (transforming one's life compliant with Torah) IS blasphemy as defined in the Torah passage cited above. The racist definition is a continuation of the Nazi definition. Those who empty ritual of teshuvah are goyim no different from Christians, Muslims, etc.
10. Religious Drug Addicts
shrinkDave ,   Miami USA   (09.16.13)
You would be surprised to know how many religious patients reside in rehab facilities right now. You would be surprised to know that the temple is used in drug transactions.
11. 4, Twitter would be far more traceable
Gil ,   Tel Aviv   (09.16.13)
Than a mobile phone sms. Tweets are notorious for getting people caught and far more people will see them than an sms.
12. #7 But nowhere near as many as the catholic pedophile
A ,   Belgium   (09.16.13)
catholic priests leading Sunday mass, right Kowalsky?
13. Did you see their pictures?
Eliezer Eisenberg ,   Chicago, IL, USA   (09.17.13)
They definitely are not Orthodox Jews. They were working in an Orthodox area for cover, and couldn't do business on Shabbat to preserve the fiction. I'm not saying Orthodox Jews wouldn't deal drugs. Nobody is immune to the powerful drive to make money, and many do shameful things in doing so. I'm just pointing out that these particular Jews are not Orthodox.
