The Chief Rabbi of Moscow fled to Hungary
Orthodox Times ^ | Jun 08, 2022 | Unnamed

Posted on 06/08/2022 6:35:43 AM PDT by tlozo

The Chief Rabbi of Moscow, Pinchas Goldschmidt, has fled from Russia after being pressured to support the invasion of Ukraine, Avital Cizik-Goldschmidt, a journalist in the United States and the Chief Rabbi’s daughter-in-law, has announced.

“I can finally share”, the journalist wrote on her Twitter account, “that my in-laws have been pressured by the authorities to publicly support the ‘special operation’ in Ukraine and they refused to do so.”

“They fled to Hungary two weeks after the Russian invasion and they are now exiled from the community they loved and built and in which they raised their children for 33 years,” Cizik-Goldschmidt explains.

Pinchas, or properly spelled פנחס in Hebrew is a wonderfully beautiful and common name.

Pinchas was the son of Elazar the Priest (Kohen) who was so zealous that he killed a fellow tribesman for banging a shiksa. He was rewarded with priesthood as his eternal lineage.

In todays age, we need people who firmly believe to stand up and defend what we know and believe in.

Sounds a lot better than its odd transliteration into English, ‘Phinneous’.

I kind of like the nickname ‘Pinky’.

Goldschmidt has run afoul of the Russian government before. He’s way too comfortable with New World Order types. He’s kind of opposite to Chabad-Lubavitch.

I didn’t realize the “Chief Rabbi of Moscow” is an elected office, which seems to be rather anachronistic.

And another anti-Semite joins the forum.

I don't know anything about this Pinchas Goldschmidt (jjotto says he's way too pro-NWO and he's probably right), but if you're one of those people who believe that Orthodox Jews support homosexuality or that they are in cahoots with radical, secular Jews, then it's probably useless trying to reason with you. You can reason someone out of a position they didn't reason themselves into in the first place.

There's only one explanation for people like you: your switch is on.

Conservative and Orthodox Jews have a zero tolerance policy for the fruitcake degenerates.

Not quiet "zero tolerance."

* The rabbis of Conservative Judaism pass a resolution supporting transgender rights.

* Chief Rabbi publishes first LGBT guide for orthodox schools.

* At Jerusalem pride march, Orthodox welcome

* This Orthodox Jewish rabbi just performed his first-ever ‘joyous’ same-sex wedding

* The dam is breaking for LGBT acceptance in the Orthodox world

He feels safe in Viktor Orban’s Hungary? I thought Orban was a Nazi nationalist?

“we see less and less LGBTQ propaganda in Russia”

So you admit you’re in Russia, eh?

Sloppy, sloppy.
