Crown Heights has a history in politics, to the average Crown Heightser its “let them fight” and “who cares” or “I'm not interested” is that so? In politics there are a couple of aspects - rumors, propaganda, and fact.
Rumors come from one party and spread from a misunderstanding of the whole situation and without any fact backing and no one wanting to stand by their own statement.
Propaganda is when a party would like the community and its residents to believe that they are the right and just cause, and that they are fighting for your rights and in turn they receive your support.
Op-Ed: Who’s who?
Who’s who you ask, allow me to tell you but first let make an introduction – Politics.

This shall serve as a response to your letter addressed to Dr. Lang but distributed to my clients and the community at large. Your letter is patently false and a blatant attempt to intimidate my clients and sow confusion in the community with respect to the upcoming elections.
As you well know, I appeared in the Appellate Division pro se, as well as on behalf of all of the other Respondents—except for Zaki Tamir and those represented by Mr. Rudofsky. This is reflected in the RADI form and was clearly stated during our conference with the court attorney.

NEW YORK, NY — Struggling to subdue a crazed suspect, an NYPD cop broke a cardinal rule of law enforcement and handed his gun to a Manhattan janitor, telling his stunned new deputy, “I need some help here,” The Post has learned.
Even though his idea of backup usually involves clogged drains, Placido Contreras, 51, said he took hold of the weapon and pointed it at the floor after the cop told him, “Keep your eyes on him and shoot him if you have to.”

You asked me for an advisory opinion about the current status of the Injunction (T.R.O.) that we obtained tins past Wednesday restraining tile Sunday elections called by Yisroel Best, as well as tile lawsuit in general as it pertains to the elections.
With regard to the injunction, the Appellate Division yesterday issued a “stay” of the “TRO” to the four persons who appealed, those being Respondents Yisroel Best, Yisroel Sandhaus, Yisroel Landau and Eli Poltarok. As none of the other 14 Respondents (candidates) appealed the injunction, a very strong argument can be made that the Appellate Division's Order does not protect or apply to them. The other 14 Respondents are: Kalman Bialestock, Fishel Brownstein, Zev Cadaner, Yossi Keller, Yossel Motchkin, Yaacov Rogalsky, Mendel Shagalov, Chanina Sperlin, Zaki Tamir, Uri Niazov, Gershon Chaimson, Motel Chein, Zalman Lipsker, and Y.
