The rabbi who allegedly had his finger shot off during the attack on the Poway Synagogue — is back in the news, this time for pleading guilty to a multi-million dollar fraud scheme involving Federal tax evasion for which he will not serve even a single day in prison:
Rabbi Yisroel Goldstein, the former leader of Chabad of Poway in Southern California, was among several defendants who pled guilty in federal court on Tuesday to charges of fraud related to a multimillion-dollar tax-evasion scheme that lasted at least eight years.
The charges were brought by the U.S. Attorney’s Office Southern District of California following a long-term investigation by the U.S. Department of Justice.
Goldstein will be sentenced on Oct. 19. He faces a maximum of five years in prison and a $250,000 fine.
In a press conference on Tuesday, the government said it will recommend probation for the rabbi with no time in custody. Additionally, Goldstein will need to pay $3.5 million in restitution, of which he has already ceded $1 million in gold coins.
Goldstein, 58, gained national attention in April 2019 after a gunman attacked Chabad of Poway on the last day of Passover during morning services. One congregant was killed in the attack in which Goldstein, then senior rabbi of the congregation, was shot and lost a finger in the assault.
“This case has brought us a great deal of anguish because of the attack on Chabad of Poway,” said U.S. Attorney Robert Brewer. “Sadly, the facts of this case show a willful, devious effort to deceive on the part of a trusted community leader. Evading taxes causes harm not just to the government, but also to one’s fellow citizens, who are forced to bear a heavier burden. Members of Chabad of Poway are also victims of this crime, for those fake donations certainly did not benefit their congregation.”
It was a clearly a ‘miracle’ that the rabbi received a ‘life-like’ replacement finger so soon after the shooting, and another miracle that he’s going to avoid prison after committing such a ‘devious’ financial swindle — against Jews in his own synagogue.
Rabbis like Goldstein often use their status as devout ‘religious’ men as a cover for their involvements in all kinds of illegal activities, from tax evasion and money laundering to drug smuggling, human trafficking, and pedophilia.
While normal people would be serving prison time for such an egregious and long-running crime to defraud the Federal government, this rabbi has “Jewish Privilege” which allows him to avoid any jail time whatsoever.
And good luck collecting the $3.5 million in restitution that the rabbi owes his mostly Jewish victims — he’ll cry poverty, hide his assets in his backyard, and avoid paying back anything to his victims.

So a 90+ German WWII guard gets punished for following orders 75+ yrs later with 3 yrs. in prison, but this jew crook gets to avoid his 5 yr. prison sentence for Fed tax scheme for 8+ yrs. and gets to go to the White House in a honorary ceremonial role because he lost a finger from a person who wouldn’t take it anymore. How convenient for these devils when yidiots just roll over their crimes and feel sympathy for these worms – giving them a free ride. Where in hell is the justice..?! He should be deported at the very least!

One should appreciate the skepticism of any jew claim of victimhood but in this instance the claim is probably real. The article mistakes the need to see the signs of surgical trauma but these prosthetics are not surgically attached, are silicone, and are very lifelike.
I believe the photo does show a prosthetic because the rest of his fingernails are filthy and only the fake one is clean. Typical dirty jew.
Here’s a vid showing how undetectable these prosthetic fingers are: https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=20&v=9Q-cXIxp0Ak

We understand that the fake prosthetic finger was not surgically attached. That’s not the issue. The issue is that when you have a finger shot off and then have the stump surgically closed, the amount of inflammation, discoloration and scar tissue would take at least a year or more to heal and fade.
If his finger had been truly shot off, the stump would still be black and blue or dark red after only one month of healing which is what that picture claims. Where’s the evidence of all that trauma? There is none. And the clean fingernail isn’t exactly persuasive proof that nullifies the lack of trauma to the entire hand.

There are NO pictures of the rabbi’s stump after the finger got shot off–we only see photos of his heavy bandage. Why doesn’t he post pictures of his stump? From a Jewish point of view, the stump would garner him a lot more sympathy so you’d figure that he’d post at least one showing his missing finger, but no…..until I see that stump, I’ll assume he’s lying.

OMG…. Rabbi Yisroel Goldstein, survivor of the Poway, Calif synagogue shooting, speaks during a National Day of Prayer event in the Rose Garden of the White House, May 2, 2019…visiting with Donald Trump. These fraudsters get in high places because of their government protected minority status and White people enable it…..https://www.timesofisrael.com/rabbi-hurt-in-poway-synagogue-shooting-attack-admits-multimillion-dollar-fraud/

That’s why Trump or Kushner ordered that the WH visitor log no longer be made public.
They didn’t want under siege Americans seeing how many Chosen Ones were going to see Zognald Trump.

When Trump said MAGA they were up in arms we’ve seen this before, Hitler, Fascist and more of the stuff…..and guess what happened DTJ left the MAGA train and hopped on the MIGA jointfight striker killing America…. (that’s how the psychological trick works time and again) while this racist, sexist, right-wing White supremacist propaganda was churning out drivel a story that got little attention……within 100 days a new ‘Jewish elite’ arises under Trump, (the Zionist supremacist religious fundamentalist Jews on the right), things were not different on the left and the Obama White House….I paid close attention, and they hate Trump with a passion (because he personifies the confident, straight white Christian male with backbone) but I am supposed to drink the antisemitism cool-aid without question…… https://forward.com/news/national/370369/in-100-days-a-new-jewish-elite-rises-under-trump/

A guy who would defraud his fellow jews and the IRS out of millions of dollars would never lie about having his finger shot off to gain sympathy from the public just in case he was ever caught. No way.

Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society (HIAS) Imports “Refugees” to White Countries, Even from Israel
TNO STAFF — NOVEMBER 1, 2018 0 COMMENT
The Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society (HIAS) organization—targeted by the Pittsburgh synagogue shooter Robert Bowers—works full time to bring fake refugees to America and Europe, while at the same time helping to expel them from Israel and ship them to white countries, a review of that organization’s activities shows. https://www.hias.org/
According to the HIAS website, that organization said that “HIAS continues to resettle the most vulnerable refugees of all faiths and ethnicities from all over the world. In the US we work with local social service organizations around the country to welcome refugees and help them integrate into their communities and build new lives.”

Yep, and if things get really bad, then ol’ Schlomo Goldstein can hop on a jet to Israel, but that surely will not be necessary. His #JewishPrivelege will get him through this little bump in the road.
