You said thr point of the paper was to "remind" everyone about thier shitah - and that it wasn't many for any other purpose (E. G. Not to daven for the boys)
How in the world is this "stressing" or "reminding" about the shitta
? My original post:
A note from the same section mentions that even though these bochrim are not from the same camp and have a completely different philosophy than satmar when it comes to Israel and Zionism, all that is irrelevant when a fellow yid is in a tzara. Their main point, loosely translated: "it was obvious from the first moment that erlicha yidden knew to separate the two [going against them with the shitta but being one in times of need], because at the end of the day these are fellow yidden, children of Avraham Yitzchak and Yaakov, no matter which community or kehilla they come from".
Publishing it isn't called keeping it to themselves
Imagine how the boys parents would feel if thry saw the article? What would you tell them? That it was published just for "us" and you weren't supposed to get ahold of it. . .?
I'm not satmar and I saw the article. These days we have something called the Internet.
We live in a world where a Rav can't write a psak and a principal can't make or enforce a rule due to the fear that someone will put it on Whatsapp and it'll go all around the world out of context. It's sickening. A Rav writes a psak for his kehilla and tomorrow it's on FM. He says an opinion and it gets torn apart by every shmoe on the internet.
My point is that everyone has a right to publish their opinion to their own audience. The blatt wrote an article for it's own readers, not the 'internet'. On top of that, this is one small part of a 10 or so page article which is written beautifully, sensibly, and most importantly, sensitively. The only part which others (read: not the intended audience) could misinterpret is written very delicately, taking care not belittle any person, community, or mehalech. If a quick internet translation is not clear enough to convey that, that is hardly the blatt's fault.
Personally, I think if the boys' parents would read the article they'd be touched that even a group of yidden who are so opposed to parts of their ideology in normal circumstances put all differences aside and joined as one in their's (and klal yisroel's) pain.
But from a clueless persons point of view, that's what the shittah implies.
I'm sorry. The shitta (or for that matter any other opinion or school of thought on the planet) is not required to educate and defend itself against every clueless person on the internet. If someone's clueless about something and still draws conclusions they have no one to blame but themselves.

I think I have been very clear in my points regarding this entire subject and will not continue arguing about it. Let's return to the main subject at hand and hope for good news very soon.
