Yosef Tzvi Dushinsky (first Dushinsky rebbe)
He founded a community of Hungarian Jews in Jerusalem, affiliated with the Perushim section of the Edah HaChareidis.This community gradually developed into a Hasidic dynasty, which is today headed by his grandson, who was named after him.Dushinsky was known for his strong opposition to Zionism, and spoke to the newly formed United Nations against the creation of the State of Israel.The Jerusalem Municipality sought to honor Dushinsky after his death with the naming of a street, but his son refused for fear that any Shabbat desecration that occurred on the street (e.g. the driving of cars on the Shabbat) would cause pain to his father's soul.After many requests, his son agreed to the naming of a passageway of stairs in the Pagi (Sanhedria) neighborhood after his father, since cars could not access this path.
