hit members of the Williamsburg haic
Community are outraged some are calling
for Revenge Matthew Schwarz is here now
with the Tails Matthew it's an unusual
story Rollin 25,000 members of the ultra
Orthodox satmar sect live in the
Williamsburg section of Brooklyn about
20% of them reportedly don't like the
chief Rabbi last night one of the main
denters was attacked so he'd shut up
Judah wi Garten is a man of Peace but a
victim of violence the 41-year-old hdic
rabbi suffered head and facial injuries
when he was punched and kicked by what
police say was a gang of 15 to 20 hdic
youths it happened outside the rabbi's
Bedford Gardens apartment building
Tuesday night a neighbor John Perez says
he saw the gang approach the rabbi they
were arguing and stuff and then after
five like 5 minutes later they just
started beating him and kicking him and
he started screaming and we all came
over and we tried to stop him and they
told us to mind our business because it
was none our business and they had they
had every right to do that what makes
what happen here unusual is that the
victim and his suspected attackers are
members of williamsburg's usually
close-knit satmar sect their legendary
leader Rabbi Joel tidle Bal died in 1979
at the age of 93 his nephew Rabbi Moses
title Bal is the current leader but some
usually camera shy satmars say title Bal
is greedy and puts himself above the
talod the authoritative body on Jewish
law after weine Garten criticized title
Bal and the local Jewish newspaper in
April Wine Garten's car was set on fire
now a group of fellow denters say tidle
bound was behind the attacks on Wine
Garden Moses CID bomb his people
orders his house you know maybe not his
director but he wants to do it because
he he hold a couple speeches a lot of
people uh terrorized speeches he gave
terrorist speeches to his congregation
yeah we could though and threatened
Revenge if it were me or one of my kids
I would react in the same manner that's
all I could say I'd have to retaliate
the same way that they've what they've
done to this man I'm sure the same thing
would have to happen to them police say
that they have no suspects in the case
tonight Rabbi wein Garten is in stable
condition at PW Hospital Rand he thank
you

them and um just the war men to be
killed and in in in in Hebrew and Jewish

with the leader of the 10,000 member
sect the grand rabbi Moses tidle bound
Walman ran election but he recently won
a court case against the rabbi who
barred the grand rabbi reportedly spoke
in the synagogue across from waldman's
home last night denouncing Waldman and
his supporters the speech which incites
the people to come to my house to Riot
and to do anyone anything to do even to
kill me I feel this is like an order Al

community would comment saying that
Waldman was trying to destroy the
community he would not say why we even
went to the grand rabbi no
