Description		    A small poster entitled "Pogrom" which describes what happened on Shabbat, Parahshat Bereishit, during Torah reading, when fist-fighters hired by Agudat Yisrael broke into synagogues and cruelly hit murderous blows against old, elderly people ,Rabbis and and wise men, until blood was flowing. They [these fighters] tore their tallises off of them in the style of the gestapo, and abused ... We turn to our brothers in the diaspora to get involved in this ...and to our brothers in Eretz Israel, we turn..have pity on the future of our Holy Land...do not go in the path with these low hooligans.
