Chairman Moshe Gafni of the haredi-religious Degel Hatorah Party has eulogized Rabbi Menachem Mendel Taub, the Admor of Kaliv, who passed away on Sunday at the age of 96.
Gafni said, "The Rebbe zt" l was a great Torah Jew and G-d fearing man who brought people closer to the Torah and the commandments. I was privileged to be with him regarding a variety of subjects, including his extensive activity as a Holocaust survivor who survived the horrors of the Nazis, may their names be blotted out, and his special attention to Holocaust survivors and to the Shema Yisrael reading to the tens of thousands of Your people, Israel." He concluded, "The Degel Hatorah Movement, together with the entire House of Israel, mourns."
