but it is not the talk of town like it was with the 3.
The family pressured american officials to create american coverage of this story. (See multiple articles on TLS and the press conference ) http://www.thelakewoodscoop.com/news/2014/08/where-is-governor-christie-on-the-missing-new-jersey-boy.html

The family definitely believed that the Israelis were trying to sweep this under the rug.

Until the American pressure, there was very little Israeli involvement. HaSatmar Rebbe tzadak!

According to Rav Sorotzkin to get the americans off their back they're trying to pin it on the friend.

According to my source, (I only heard this from one guy who was there, and he wasn't clear about this point) he also said that tomorrow they're giving the friend a lie detector test, which will be administered while the boy is starving.

@Baruch did you actually hear reb Yitzchok say this?
Or is it another dumb whatsapp
yes I heard him say it, and he was actually repeating what r Meir eizman the uncle of aaron sofer who spoke before r sorotzkin said because r eizman said it very unclear

When the story of the kidnapping of the three boys occurred and there was so much media attention focusing on the story. I heard a question from a very prominent rosh yeshiva who asked the following. If the 3 boys that were kidnapped would have been charedim learning in regular yeshivos would the story have become such a big story as it is now?  And apparently he's not too far from reality because that's exactly what we're seeing now

not exactly
with the three boys, it was known to the media that this was a terrorist kidnapping, they knew about the phone call that was made to the police, it was just later censored, and also the burned car that was found

This story is getting weirder by the minute, why would the Israelis want to cover this up?

BREAKING NEWS: R' Yitzchok Sorotzkin said at the Yom Tefilah that the Israeli government is torturing the friend, and starving him, so he should admit to murder. Because of the tremendous pressure that America is putting on Israel to resolve this mystery. He said that the we should daven for the friend also. I think the name was עקיבא בן רחל רייכל
Assuming he actually did say this, (i.e it wasn't lost in translation etc.) is there a plausible explanation of how he would have this information?

Someone said earlier that HaRav Meir Eismann - uncle of the boy, also said the same. Maybe the missing boy's family knows more than the news media.

I heard this yesterday that they suspect a friend.


Was he only with one friend in the forest? or two?

Rabbi Sorotzkin said that they don't really suspect him, they just want to get the US off their heads.
