The breachers are publicly profaning Shabbat they are Jewish sinners with their very body.." Rabbi Yosef Chaim Sonnefeld's protest against soccer games on Shabbat
Placard with a personal appeal from the great Rabbi Yosef Chaim Sonnenfeld protesting Shabbat soccer games: "My heart breaks within me upon the terrible news that the ears of the breachers of our nation our blocked to the pleading of religious Jewry and that they return to their vomit to again profane the sanctity of Shabbat in the holy city...with competitive soccer games on Shabbat in public..."
In his words, the gaon rules that these Shabbat desecrators are "completely wicked people" [reshaim gemurim]: "And these breachers who publicly profane the shabbat and sin and cause others to sin they are "poshei yisrael b'gufan" and exclude themselves from Klal Yisrael." The gaon added a few warm words in the margins to encourage them to repent: "But I am sure in Hashem that they will not do this...and they will return in complete repentance..." Zukerman press.
