Since he is a wicked person, we do not want him as part of the Jewish community. (Meam Lo'ez, Vol. 7, Mishpatim, Exodus 21:1 - Excommunication)

The Young Israel organization refused to follow the halachos specified in this seruv to ostracize and shun the charlatan "rabbi". In fact, they committed FORGERY and PERJURY to hide the seruv from Klal Yisrael!

The eruv in West Las Vegas was formed with the full knowledge Young Israel will not allow the widow (and others the so-called rabbi publicly expressed his hatred toward) into the shul to partake of the ochel, the food component of the eruv. Halacha considers the rabbi of that Young Israel a heretic for his actions and his public distortions of the Torah and all halachos of excommunication (Yoreh Deah 334) apply to him. For these reasons stated in the Shulchan Aruch Orech Chaim that were deliberately contravened in these sections 366:5, 385, 394:3 (click here then scroll to view)  the eruv is pasul!
The Las Vegas Kollel's say-so to the contrary is worthless since they cannot give valid halachic explanations or reasons.

Travelers to Nevada must avoid carrying on Shabbos in the areas surrounding the Young Israel of Las Vegas!

6. And Moses said to Aaron and to Eleazar and to Ithamar, his sons, "Do not leave your heads unshorn, and do not rend your garments, so that you shall not die, and lest He be angry with the entire community, but your brothers, the entire house of Israel, shall bewail the conflagration that the Lord has burned.

ו.   וַיֹּאמֶר משֶׁה אֶל אַהֲרֹן וּלְאֶלְעָזָר וּלְאִיתָמָר | בָּנָיו רָאשֵׁיכֶם אַל תִּפְרָעוּ | וּבִגְדֵיכֶם לֹא תִפְרֹמוּ וְלֹא תָמֻתוּ וְעַל כָּלהָעֵדָה יִקְצֹף וַאֲחֵיכֶם כָּל בֵּית יִשְׂרָאֵליִבְכּוּ אֶת הַשְּׂרֵפָה אֲשֶׁר שָׂרַף יְהֹוָה

Rashi:

so that you shall not die: But if you do so [and leave your heads unshorn and rend your garments], you will die. — [Torath Kohanim 10:31]		ולא תמתו: הא אם תעשו כן תמותו:

Why would Hashem be angry with the entire community if Aaron and his surviving sons were to disregard His instructions?

Rav [Shimon] Schwab (zt'l) on Yeshayahu (Artscroll)  brings a reference on page 14 from Sefer Yehoshua, Perek 7 where the defeat at Ai cost some 36 Jewish lives :

"Achan's close circle of family and friends who knew about the violation did not condemn him for it; they didn't ostracize or shun him. So the entire nation was held responsible."

---

According to Rambam (Hil. Taanis 1:1-3), it is a positive commandment of the Torah for every individual to cry out and search his ways at a time of national calamity, for G-d visits calamities upon Israel to inspire each Jew to repent for his misdeeds. If someone fails to recognize that tragedies occur through an act of G-d rather [than] through happenstance, he is considered cruel, because he will not be motivated to improve his behavior. as a result, G-d will beset Israel with more troubles, until all are motivated to change their ways. (Footnote from Artscroll 1982 edition  Sefer Yehoshua, Perek 7  )

If the disregard for the sin of Achan by "Achan's close circle of family and friends who knew about the violation " (Rav Shimon Schwab, ztl) brought about the tragedy at the Battle of Ai then it stands to reason that the suppression of the excommunication of Yitzchak Wyne by his close circle of "rabbinic" and Young Israel colleagues very likely is bringing similar Biblical responses where Hashem is trying to reach the conscience of the community leaders as He did Yehoshua. 

Achan ben Carmi defied a cherem on the booty of Jericho and the result was national mourning for some 36 lives! Mr. Wyne oppressed a widow and was placed in  cherem  as result but his close circle keeps it hidden from the general community! They let the locals and travelers think it is a YOUNG ISRAEL like those led by Rabbi Menachem Gettinger zt'l, Rav Yehudah Leib Isbee zt'l, Rav Schulem Rubin zt'l, et al.

IT IS NOT DESERVING TO USE THE NAME YOUNG ISRAEL and it is NOT a branch of AISH HaTORAH!

Las Vegas is definitely no longer an affiliate of Aish HaTorah on any level, and should have removed the name from their stationery etc. They have been asked to do so and we will follow up on this. Thank you very much for bringing the matter to our attention.

This status has not changed in 8 years!  Young Israel Aish of Las Vegas is NOT affiliated with Aish HaTorah despite their use of the name and logos.

Excerpt from What to do with Abusive Rabbis

(Please click on hyperlinked texts)
We cannot say any of the tragedies that have befallen us in recent years are a direct consequence of the particular injustices by Young Israel of Las Vegas to a widow and the discrimination against a wheelchair-bound veteran US Army Chaplain (click to view letter NCYI turns a blind eye to) or to the Torah elder drenched with water or the broadcast on the radio by the "rabbi" of Young Israel in Las Vegas where he says "the Torah does NOT prohibit prostitution"! Yet how can the national Young Israel stand by and allow these things the Mishnah warns us about to continue?  

• "the delay of justice (by issuing a fraudulent letter saying to ignore the seruv), 
• the perversion of justice (by the FORGERY to negate the seruv) 
  
  More information can be read in this Google doc
• and distortion of the Torah" (public distortion of Devarim 23:18 by a YOUNG ISRAEL rabbi with the declaration "the Torah does NOT prohibit prostitution")

Other hard-to-believe misdeeds unworthy of a Young Israel that have actually occurred at YILV WITH THE NATIONAL COUNCIL of YOUNG ISRAEL HAVING FULL KNOWLEDGE OF THESE EVENTS FOR THE LAST SEVERAL YEARS include:

• That it was built on Shabbos and the construction on Shabbos was actively inspected on Shabbos by the "rabbi"
• On his Feb 14, 2010 KDWN radio show, Rabbi Wyne said "if you want the girl of your dreams, don't bother with romance, KNOCK HER UP".  It was crude, extremely offensive and certainly not befitting anyone using the title "Rabbi" especially of a Young Israel.
  National Council of Young Israel has a recording of the show yet did nothing about it just as they have done nothing since a year later after he said "the Torah does NOT prohibit prostitution".
  
• It has shul officers who are NOT Shabbos observant. This violates a basic requirement of the Young Israel charter 
• After raising money from the community for a brand new Sefer Torah, the shul held a Hachnosas Sefer Torah.  A very short time after the event Yitz Wyne removed the handles (atzai chaim) and the cover from the brand new Sefer Torah and placed them on an old  Sefer Torah. He secretly returned the   brand new Sefer Torah to the sofer for a refund of most the money previously paid. One of the congregants learned of this when the sofer asked him where else he could sell the brand new Sefer Torah. What are the halachos regarding money raised specifically for a new Sefer Torah?  Where did the refunded money actually go after Wyne received it? 
• More than once served food clearly cooked on Shabbos upon instruction of the "rabbi" who only has Rav uManhig ordination. The following is a statement from a former congregant who was forced to leave the synagogue:

• On Shabbos my husband went into the shul kitchen as they were preparing for a kiddush and noticed that they were mixing mocha mix in hot noodles...clearly Bishul. My husband called in Mr. Wyne [she refuses to address him as "rabbi"] and this was his response "just serve it- no one will know about it". There were witnesses to this. After this incident my husband approached Mr. Wyne privately with a Mishna Brurah and was told "just put that book away!"  The entire letter can be read at this link

  On another occasion Wyne also said to go ahead and serve bourekas which had just been baked on Shabbos, that no one would know (except the witnesses who spoke up about it). Who knows how many other times the same thing happened?
• Specifically leaves its parking spaces open on Shabbos contrary to the long-standing Young Israel rule. It was declared by the rabbi of the Kew Gardens Synagogue that Young Israel of Las Vegas will never even put up a sign not to park in front of the Young Israel on Shabbos!
• Placed large advertisements on bus shelters saying "Come to YOUNG ISRAEL to meet Jewish chicks"
• Destroyed a tiny Shabbos minyan of people who could not or would not daven in such a temple with an excommunicated rabbi
• Threatened to throw out a veteran US Army Chaplain rabbi who is an invalid in a wheelchair if he would try coming in to daven at the YOUNG ISRAEL (click to view letter)
• 

  Which is the rabbi?

  Wyne was quoted in the Las Vegas Review-Journal: "Hanukkah owes a great debt of gratitude to Christmas for making it famous," says Rabbi Yitzchak Wyne of the Orthodox Young Israel Aish Congregation of Las Vegas. "If it didn't fall around Christmas, no one would celebrate it."
  He diminishes Chanukah when he ties it in with the goyishe holiday. What a low opinion he must have of his congregants and other Jews in Las Vegas if he feels they wouldn't celebrate Chanukah without the goyim having a holiday at the same time. Does he also feel that Pesach needs Easter the same way?

No man can say that any specific tragedy is a direct result to "the delay of justice, the perversion of justice and distortion of the Torah" occurring under the auspices of Young Israel. But the Mishna in Avos says "the sword comes to the world" as a result of "the delay of justice, the perversion of justice and interpretation of the Torah at variance with Halacha". So why allow these atrocities at the Young Israel of Las Vegas to continue anyway?
