Total Loss: Bnei Yehuda should be ashamed of the farce of signing Yitzhak Aspa

Bnei Yehuda's volunteering to recruit Yitzhak Aspa, a minute after he was released from prison, all while trying to whitewash the move through Pike News for his activities in the green light, is a fatal blow to the club's image.

In the video: Yitzhak Aspa is released from Hermon Prison (Walla system!)

"The offenses for which the appellant was convicted are particularly serious and ugly. After he hit the two boys hard with his vehicle, the appellant abandoned the late Ari and R.M. At the scene of the accident, in the middle of the night, with the two lying on the ground on the side of the road. The appellant hurried to escape from the scene of the accident, and until his arrest several hours later he did not recover and did not turn himself in to the police. In these acts lies not only a moral failure, but also contempt for the sanctity of the lives of the victims and the feelings of their relatives ... Not even that, the appellant lied to the police with a determined forehead, claiming that the damage to his vehicle was caused while parking and that he did not drive that night. If that was not enough, even during his trial, the appellant refused to take responsibility for his actions and adhered to a version that turned out to be false, according to which he was not at all aware of the accident, thus prolonging the proceedings and further heartbreak for the late Ari's family. V. State of Israel, para. 11 BCE).

You'd be surprised, but even this sharp ruling by the Supreme Court failed to aggravate the situation of footballer Yitzhak Aspa, quite the opposite.

A few lines later, Justices Anat Baron, Alex Stein and Ofer Grosskopf explain why the sentence he received from Judge Zvi Gurfinkel in the district court is relatively severe for the offense he committed, and after expressing sympathy for his difficult life story, ruled that he should be reduced to one and a half years.

And so Aspa dropped from four and a half years - to only three.

Take down a third on good behavior, an administrative month - and here it is.

More on Walla!

Yitzhak Aspa signed with Bnei Yehuda, "Green Light": "He is not an educational figure"

Had to give of himself for the sake of rehabilitation.

It is true that we are not comfortable with this as a society, but it should be in our interest: criminal prisoners also deserve rehabilitation.

The path of return to the beneficiary includes the restoration and inclusion of normative society the situation in which the released prisoner finds himself, with the sense of disgust we have from his actions, with the sign of Cain he has on his forehead.

One like Aspah, ugly as the offenses for which he was convicted, has a good chance of recovering properly - through football.

But it has to happen in MS.

Ashdod.

This is his team.

And that has to happen through real volunteer activity - outside of football.

Aspa had to give a few good months of himself - voluntarily, in personal example, in an attempt to atone a little bit for his horrible deeds.

And of course none of this happened.

What did happen?

Ashdod did not want to touch him, how unsurprising, probably so as not to win the dubious title "the first team he collected played for him after prison", and someone there picked up the phone to Bnei Yehuda - an entity moving on the axis between a football team that needs urgent reinforcement in several positions on the field. Which is not related to the gathering, by the way) and a place where favors are done to friends.

And as usual, as it works with friends, everything worked out and here it is - a gathering in Bnei Yehuda.

And there is also a sin of crime: to whitewash this horrific move, Bnei Yehuda issued a statement on its behalf stating that Aspa is taking responsibility and intends to volunteer at the Green Light Association.

But within about three minutes a denial came out of a green light, which shook all its strength from its assembly.

The association clarified that they never received a request from him or Bnei Yehuda, and even if they did, they would not respond to it.

Shameful, embarrassing, despicable, miserable.

What a pathetic way to whitewash such an inappropriate move.

Shaped the positive image of Bnei Yehuda.

Yankele Grundman lived from the age of 3 to 6 in a worm-infested and filthy pit of a Polish farmer in Pruszowice, while the SS was looking for him and his family. He immigrated to Israel, became a Bnei Yehuda star and won the first title in its history with her. The Nazi oppressor was finally defeated when he was appointed coach of the Israeli national team.

When Yankele was still in Poland, Gad Sulmi killed the British when he dismantled sergeants, beat him in Atlit prison (and according to legend also escaped), and over the years became a tough activist who ran Bnei Yehuda under the aura of an Irgun hero. He led her, as chairman, to winning her only championship so far.

When the Yemeni was already running and the Pole was the king of the neighborhood, Eli Shashu came up from the youth and played as a brake in the seniors.

55 years ago, he finished his career on the field, at the age of 23, but remained in Bnei Yehuda and moved to manage the youth department.

He founded the Bar Mitzvah Institution - an event with tremendous social significance, which gave a wonderful experience and a sense of belonging and value even to children who grew up in the worst poverty there is - an institution that he led almost until his last day.

Yankele, Gad and Shasho are just three people whose personal narrative has also been that of Bnei Yehuda for decades.

The three of them are no longer among the living, and of course there are many more good ones who have contributed and done.

Some died, some wished a long life - and all have shaped, since the mid-1930s, the positive image of Bnei Yehuda.

And what will they remember at the end?

That one, Aspa from Ashdod, who will not play for Bnei Yehuda for another three months, got his first chance from her after he was in prison for abandoning the death of a 17-year-old boy. What a shame.
