1. about bloody time
geroge   (02.24.15)
all haredi are now directed and ordered to martial arts and legal gun training. Haredi outward manner encourages bullying and antisemitism Each jew must be israel, not grovelling approval seeking livni lapid and herzog. Defend yourselves now. Haredi- into gym now dailiy 2 hours.
2. Overfed Rabbis take self defence.
Al   (02.25.15)
Really...to be fit, most of them need to lose 15Kg, lift weights, cut out the Kugal and eat mean and lean. Boxing, walking, weights and lean eating will put them in shape. Sitting with folded arms will never put them in shape. This is not a Gemorrah class.
3. I live in Montreal..I can count on the tip of two
Al   (02.25.15)
fingers how many Jews in Montreal have legal gun permits. We Jews have learned nothing from our history. We believe that the only way to survive is having a good lawyer. The only Jew in the world today ready to defend himself is the Israeli Jew, save for the Charedi and the Jew from Texas. God bless TEXAS and ISRAEL.
4. #1 George how about
Dori   (02.25.15)

6. So it's only our frummen that don't care to defend our Land?

7. Self-defence?
Avi L.   (02.25.15)
Europe needed the Charlie Hebdo and the Kosher Market massacres to recognize Jews' right to self defence. Not even a year ago, during the islamic assaults to french synagogues, french television condemned publicly as "dangerous militias" the few persons who tried to defend themselves and their institutions. Some time ago even legal organisations like Betar were treated little less that al Qaeda and any idea of self defence was watched by media and security as a threat to society. It took years of everyday abuses, physical aggressions, terrorism to reach the point for the lawful right to self defence to be recognised. Jews are leaving, the "pure hearted" dhimmis will have to live with what they didn't want to deal with. Economics and "new reality" will bring very hard times on Europe
