Fire Yosef Asher and Yisroel Weiss

The Issue

Artscroll, a world-renowned publisher of Jewish books, is complicit in a horrendous act of abuse against Gital Dodelson. Gital is being held in limbo by her ex-husband, Avrohom Meir Weiss, who refuses to give her a get, a religious divorce. Artscroll employ the father (Yosef Asher) and the uncle (Yisroel) of this deviant human being who are completely complicit. Needless to say, it is supremely ironic that the leading publisher of Torah books is a willing conspirator in this travesty.

Please sign this petition and together we can force Artscroll to help to bring an end to Gital's suffering.

Please help to set Gital free.

Responded
To all our friends who have communicated with us regarding the Dodelson-Weiss matter: For the least several months, we have invested enormous time and effort to facilitate a mutually acceptable outcome to the very sad matter of the Weiss-Dodelson get. We have been motivated by one desire: to help bring about a get so that Gital and Avrohom Meir can build new futures for themselves and so that their child should be provided for in the most positive manner, for his benefit. Unfortunately, these efforts have not yet borne fruit. In order to avoid further distraction from the harbotzas haTorah of ArtScroll/Mesorah, Rabbis Yosaif Asher and Yisroel Weiss have decided to give up their positions with our firm until this situation is resolved. May our shared hope be fulfilled: that Hashem will provide all parties with the wisdom and good will to bring a peaceful conclusion to this tragic situation, and may Klal Yisrael everywhere come together and enjoy the blessings of peace.
