In the shadow of ongoing Palestinian terror attacks and following the most recent tragedy, the fatal Egged 402 bus crash that claimed six lives R”L, the Sanzer Rebbe Shlita has released a letter addressing the difficult period. In the letter he speaks of the threats posed to the tzibur by modern technology, warning of the “קליפה טמאה המקטרג בראש”, the kitrug that results from said technology. The letter was directed at everyone, but released for a Kinos in Elad held earlier in the week.

The rebbe explains how “blood have flown like water” as a result of the heinous murderers and there can be no doubt that the “klipa temei’a” is led by the “cursed tomei technology that infects heart and soul.” He speaks of the many tragedies that have befallen Klal Yisroel of late and the need to rid ourselves of this unclean technology.

The rebbe calls on the tzibur to unite against these threats, to cleanse the camp of unwanted gashmiyus, at this appropriate time, the Shovavim.
