    Yeshiva is just “school”…

    The problem here is it was a group Chabad-Lubavitch “Meshichists”

    https://blogs.timesofisrael.com/the-chabad-terrorists-within/

    Literally one of the most extreme of the extremists…

    They believe their last leader (currently dead) is going to return from the dead any second now and reveal themselves as the Messiah.

    Like when Ben-Gvir came to America, this was the only American Jewish group willing to meet with him.

    They’re absolutely pieces of shit, but they are not the same as just any random Jewish group, not even representative of the Hasidic population.

    Their more a cult than a branch of Judaism at the moment, but the entire movement is only ~200 years old.

    Like a Jewish version of Mormons basically.

    Israelis trying to expand their territory, heard that one before. Did they try blackmailing the city council first?

    Are these actual Israeli citizens or just Americans? Or are they both? I thought these guys were some sort of crazy cult. Correct me if I’m wrong.
