Hacham ben Haim is Rosh Yeshivah at RIETS and student of HaRav Ben Zion Abba Shaul. He also acts as Av Bet Din of Queens. It appears he ties like the Ben Ish Hai similar to R’ Mazuz.

R’ Rappaport was one of the people that started the whole process going. Without him it’s hard to say if the rest would be wearing Techeiles today.

There was an earlier video of him on “Why Gedolim Don’t Wear Tekhelet” where he admitted to not wearing it. Now times have changed.
