Since I am a member of Hanhala I must clarify that although I will try as much as possible to be objective, some points may sound biased due to my extensive involvement in the running of a Yeshiva. I am sure that there are exceptions to the rule, and not everything I write applies to 100% of the cases, and once in a while (5% maximum) there is a rotten apple in the bunch which does not fulfill his job to the fullest extent.
As opposed to the previous Op-Ed which is a unsigned Pashkvil, I am not hiding behind a the anonymity of the Internet, my email is: HanhalaMember@gmail.com Anyone who wishes to seriously discuss this issue can contact me and I will identify myself to them.

Being a member of Hanhala in a Yeshiva, and involved in Chinuch for a few years in various Yeshivas (ranging from the vocational schools to the so-called “best” yeshivos) I take issue with the topics brought to light in this article (Op-Ed: The Destroyers) and especially the tone in which this was presented.

Lighters and Fighters
The Obama administration may have offended a significant number of Israelis by releasing a photo of the President displaying the soles of his shoes, rested atop the Resolute desk while on a call with the Israeli premier. To Middle Easterners, showing the bottom of ones shoes is considered a low insult. Yet, whether or not the President meant any harm or hint in his casual pose, it is certainly insulting to the office of the President to be captured in that position.
