New Mercaz on it's way!

There are plans for a new Mercaz Mischari right next to RBSA down from where Nachal Ayalon is about 10 minutes away.

Sources say its supposed to contain a new Michlala, New Iriyah Office buildings, A large Simcha Hall and more!

Is this the worst or greatest thing ever to happen to RBSA?
Will we turn into downtown Manhattan during rush hour?
What will be with real estate property values will they rise or fall?

Greater Beit Shemesh with over 80,000 people and growing needs a Hospital. "Would you support the building of a full service Hospital in place of a Merkas Mischari?

RBS A News - RBS A Graffiti cleaned up by Haredim who care

RBS A Graffiti cleaned up by Haredim who care

Ramat Bet Shemesh has been getting much negative publicity lately as some hooligans masquerading as Torah adherents use violence and vandalism to get across messages of anger and intolerance.

Although the media often fails to distinguish there are two separate neighborhood in RBS, Alef & Beit and while RBSB is mostly Charedi Alef is an eclectic mix.

Unfortunately although there are many righteous pious and G-d fearing Torah Jews in RBSB, it is also home to a few hotheads who make everyone's lives miserable. Although I agree with them that they should be allowed to hang signs in Bet and Alef the violence and vandalism that erupted as a result of the signs unwarranted removal was wrong and gives us a very negative picture.

Yesterday several Charedi Avreichim who care about the defacing of RBSA by vandals took to the streets and brushed and cleaned the offensive graffiti to send a clear message:

"We are Torah Jews, we are the Charedi residents of RBS A and we want a clean neighborhood free from vandalism"

Here are some photos:
