Who are bigger anti-semites - the rabbis or the gentiles?

HH

Yesterday there was a big fright in Uman when some 30 gentile thugs amassed in the street near the holy tomb of Rabbainu and threatened the local Jews, and even lashed out at a few of them physically, may our brothers have a speedy painless recovery. As painful and as outrageous as this was, I ask you what is worse, a few hours of taunting and a little bruising R"L, or the atrocities which the rabbis have allowed to continue in Uman for thirty years. The rabbis are building up their little empires, whether it be the hotels they are building, or their congregations, but not only do they prevent the people from bringing the holy tomb to its rightful place in Jerusalem, they do nothing to help the people get to Uman. There is an airport in the city of Uman which was built very strong, and it remains closed and sealed for use to the millions -thousands and hundreds of thousands of pilgrims every year since the fall of the iron curtain. It is mind boggling that these so called leaders have done nothing for over thirty years to get this airport open, running, and available. It is very hard to even contemplate and measure the amount of pain and hardship the many hours and the extra burden of travelling to a far away city, Kiev or Odessa, and having to set out from there for a long arduous car ride. For many elderly and sick and so forth such a trip is simply too much. Maybe if the rabbis would finally address this atrocity, the locals would finally realize that the Jews are a great benefit to them.
