The author of the article about picture of the Baal Shem Tov sounds very aggressive against Baal Shem miLondon. Interesting why. Reb Yakov Emden suspected many in shabsous, it doesn't mean that they were shabsoim. He even suspected Reb Yoynososn Ebeshitz. Anyhow - the author seems to go overboard in his statements.
