b"The Charedi Alon Divrei Siach dedicated six pages of a recent edition glorifying Rav Chaim Kaniyevski's campaign for generators producing Kosher electricity for Shabbas.(It should be noted that the consensus of poskim is to allow use of the municipal electric power.)Rabbi Bechhofer's Shabbas guest ,Rabbi David Hodja was irked by the lack of concern for Nizkei schechenim.Bechhofer's reserach revealed that indeed a number of civil lawsuits have been filed against Charedi builders,which have resulted in rulings on behalf of the plaintiffs.When pressed by Kivelevitz to explain how Rav Chaim, could be oblivious to these concerns, Bechhofer described the revered sage as someone whose conception of real world problems is skewed.Rabbi Bechhofer argues on one hand that Rav Chaim should not be considered a true Posek, then alternatively suggests that elements of Rav Chaim's directives more in line with derech eretz might have been intentionally omitted in every published recounting of the Sar HaTorah's opinion.Either way, Bechhofer accuses many of the self proclaimed followers of Eretz Yisroel's leading Charedi Gadol, of base hypocrisy and triumphalism clothed as pure kanaus.Kivelevitz tends to believe that the severity of the noise level might be overstated, especially in a country that is regularly overrun by various sounds of commotion.He further extolls the noble elements of a Charedi life that are on full display in those neighborhoods, which despite the cacophony, are a blessed contrast to the secular and Christian noise that needs to be endured in many major metropolitan areas in the Northeast United States.
