THE REAL CROWN HEIGHTS ELECTION RESULTS

CROWN HEIGHTS, Brooklyn [CHI] — Sunday night we reported the election tally, but that was hardly a reflection of the real outcome of the elections. Monday afternoon and Today, Tuesday the new Vaad began their tenure by taking control of the Community Council and Vaad Hakohol Offices by force, in a massive display of Chilul Hashem, and the opposite of which these bodies are to represent.

Both parties clashed in a spar of verbal assaults and the removal of people from the offices by force. Property was damaged and windows were broken, as members of the opposing factions tried to change locks while others attempted to hold possession of the premises.

Finally after almost 2000 years of exile and constant prayer and yearning to return to Jerusalem, it happened. Jews are in Israel and they are running their own affairs under a Jewish government.
