Rare Second Bais Hamikdash finds unearthed at Shiloh days before Tisha B'Av

 Just days before Tisha B'Av, the day which commemorates the destruction of the Second Temple, archaeologists uncovered significant Second Temple-period remains at the Ancient Shiloh National Heritage Site in Samaria.

Among the discoveries are an elaborate ritual bath (mikveh), a ceramic cooking pot and a rare murex shell, whose dye was historically used for tzitzit and parts of the High Priest's garments.

The artifacts were uncovered during ongoing excavations led by the Civil Administration's Archaeology Staff Officer Unit in cooperation with the Binyamin Regional Council. According to Benjamin Har-Even, the Civil Administration's Archaeology Staff Officer, the timing of the discovery during the Three Weeks carries special significance.

"We are in the period of the Three Weeks, when we commemorate the destruction of the Temple, and archaeological discoveries of this kind take on special meaning," Har-Even said. "Beyond their scientific importance, they illustrate the deep historical connection between the Jewish people and Ancient Shiloh."

Some of the finds were recovered during the sifting of excavation soil at the "Treasures of Samaria" facility, where surplus earth from archaeological excavations is examined by local youth as part of an initiative led by the Samaria Regional Council and Dr. Avi Salomon.

Binyamin Regional Council head and Yesha Council chairman Israel Ganz said the discoveries reaffirm the Jewish people's historical ties to the area.

"At a time when there are those who seek to challenge our connection to this land, these findings once again demonstrate the depth of the Jewish people's bond to Shiloh, Binyamin and the Land of Israel," he said. He also praised the young volunteers who participated in the excavation, noting that they chose to dedicate their work to the memory of Major Shiloh Har-Even, of blessed memory.

Ro Khanna the Liar Staged Provocative Incident in Judea and Samaria to Fuel Anti-Israel Narrative

 

U.S. Rep. Ro Khanna’s claims of being “held hostage by wild settlers” during a visit to Jewish communities in Judea and Samaria have been sharply challenged by Israeli security experts, who say the California Democrat’s team deliberately triggered a routine security response on Shabbat.

Israeli security analyst Gedaliah Blum detailed what he described as deliberate tactics used by Khanna’s delegation to create a staged confrontation with local First Response Teams, according to accounts circulating in Israeli media circles.

Jewish communities in Judea and Samaria face frequent terrorist attacks, prompting the establishment of community First Response Teams. These civilian guard units, operating under strict Israeli laws and in coordination with the Israel Defense Forces, monitor for suspicious activity and respond rapidly to potential threats.

The incident occurred on Shabbat, when residents of Jewish communities do not drive. Khanna’s vehicle reportedly drove off-road in a manner that raised immediate red flags, prompting the First Response Team to investigate the suspicious activity.

According to Blum’s analysis, Khanna failed to coordinate his visit with local authorities or travel in a manner identifying him as a U.S. congressman, such as using a government-marked vehicle. As a result, the security team took standard precautions to verify the group’s identity.

It took approximately 90 minutes to confirm Khanna’s identity through coordination with the IDF. Once verified, the delegation was permitted to proceed without incident.

Despite the routine nature of the security check, Khanna later portrayed the episode as being detained by armed “wild settlers,” a characterization Israeli sources dismissed as inflammatory and false.

“Ro Khanna is a liar,” one Israeli commentator summarized, echoing widespread skepticism in pro-Israel circles about the congressman’s account.

The episode has drawn attention amid ongoing debates over security protocols in Judea and Samaria, where Israeli civilians and security forces work to protect communities from terrorism while adhering to legal standards. Khanna’s narrative has been contrasted with the realities faced by Jewish residents who rely on these First Response Teams for protection

Was Lindsay Graham Poisoned?

News reports state that he died at age 71 following what his office described as a “brief and sudden” illness.

According to the official statements released after his passing, the last country Senator Lindsey Graham visited was Ukraine, where he met with President Volodymyr Zelensky in Kyiv on July 10, 2026.

I’m not a conspiracist, but it is known that Russia had deep hostility toward him. It raises the uncomfortable question: could something have happened during his time in Ukraine?

Alexander Dugin, one of Putin’s advisors, recently called for Senator Lindsey Graham to be killed. He said the world would be better without Graham.

He returned to the United States afterward and died the next day, July 11, 2026, after a sudden medical event.

There is no one to say Kaddish for Lindsey Graham. He had no wife. He had no children, and wasn't Jewish but he dedicated his entire life, mostly for us. and we are his children. Lindsey loved the Jews more than the Jews loved themselves. He traveled the world, from country to country, and fought like a lion for the State of Israel. He simply believed with all his heart, with all his might, that it was the right thing to do. Now, we the Jewish people must remember him in our prayers, for he was of greatest Righteous Among the Nations of our time.

Perhaps some prayer for many of his battles on behalf of the Jews. I wish successors would rise for him. But for now, the situation in the American Congress is not encouraging, to our regret. We will always remember you, Lindsey. Rest in peace. We all love you. The Jewish people.

President Herzog swears in Muslim Judges that will serve Israel's Sharia Courts

This Herzog is clinically insane, Show me one Muslim country extending the same institutional courtesy to Jews. He believes that pandering to Araba will stop their hatred! When will he finally realize the staggering stupidity of this kind of suicidal empathy?

 From a tweet of Herzog 👇

Five new Qadis, judges of Islamic law, were sworn in to serve in Israel’s Sharia courts during a ceremony at the President's Residence in Jerusalem today. 

I was especially moved as the second female Qadi in Israel's history, Rula Masalha-Zahalka, was sworn in. Mabrouk!

Chaverim Of Rockland Saves Monsey Couple From Losing $51,000 in Sophisticated Microsoft Scam

 

Chaverim Of Rockland Saves Monsey Couple From Losing $51,000 in Sophisticated Microsoft Scam, Stops Wire Transfer Just in Time

A quick and coordinated response by Chaverim Of Rockland saved an elderly Monsey couple from losing $51,000 Friday after they fell victim to a sophisticated Microsoft tech support scam that lasted for hours.

The ordeal began early Friday when a pop-up message appeared on the couple’s computer claiming it had been compromised. Moments later, scammers posing as Microsoft representatives contacted the couple and convinced them that criminals had used their computer to commit serious crimes. The callers falsely claimed federal authorities would arrest them unless they immediately followed their instructions.

For hours, the scammers manipulated and intimidated the couple, keeping them on the phone the entire time and ordering them not to hang up or speak with anyone else. Under immense pressure, the elderly couple drove to their bank and insisted on wiring $51,000 to an account controlled by the scammers.

Even after they returned home, the scammers continued trying to gain access to additional bank accounts and personal information through the compromised computer in an attempt to steal even more money.

Shortly before 5:00 p.m., the wife began to realize something didn’t seem right and contacted Chaverim Of Rockland.

Recognizing the urgency, Chaverim immediately dispatched one volunteer to the couple’s home while another rushed directly to the bank. In a race against the clock, the volunteer worked with bank employees to stop the wire transfer while it was still being processed, successfully saving the couple’s entire $51,000. At the same time, the volunteer at the home helped disconnect the scammers, secure the computer, and begin protecting the couple’s financial accounts from further compromise.

The Ramapo Police Department responded to the residence and took a report.

This incident is a stark reminder that Microsoft, Apple, the FTC, banks, and law enforcement agencies will never demand that you wire money, purchase gift cards, or threaten you with arrest over the phone or through a computer pop-up. If you receive a suspicious call or message, hang up immediately and contact a trusted family member, your bank, local police, or Chaverim before taking any action

Dr Robert Goodman Alleged Sexual Predator Opening an office in Lakewood

URGENT WARNING TO LAKEWOOD COMMUNITY

Dr. Robert Goodman, Practicing at 1166 River Road, is an Alleged Sexual Predator Accused of Sexually Abusing 5 Women

Dr. Robert Goodman's primary office is in Boro Park between 14th and 15th and 45th Street. He also has admitting privileges at Maimonides. He is currently a defendant in a lawsuit filed in Kings County Supreme Civil Court filed by 5 women who allege they were sexually assaulted by him.

He is accused of groping these women's breasts without consent while seeing them as patients, and making sexually inappropriate comments to them. The complaint also states that the alleged victims were aware of many other women who were similarly abused by Dr. Goodman.

The Lakewood community should be careful not to use Doctor Goodman, and to warn people about the allegations against him. He is currently facing a disciplinary hearing related to these allegations in New York. It's possible that in anticipation of possibly losing his license in New York for these alleged abuses he is trying to set up a practice in Lakewood to continue practicing if that happens.

Regardless, these allegations are numerous and very serious and the community should exercise extreme caution.

No Khan' do Ro Khanna ....The lying Congressman that says that he was "detained by IDF and Settlers"

 

US Rep. Ro Khanna is a charlatan and dishonest. His tour was halted on the bus because they entered a closed military zone (CMZ) which is prohibited (due to safety) to civilians. 

Police were called in to discuss the problem with the tour organizer who had repeatedly attempted to enter the CMZ in the past as well. The bus had to wait until the arrival of the officers to the scene, which is what caused the delay. It was not a "detainment" and no one was arrested. 

Police stated they have already reviewed the body cam footage of police at the scene confirming this account. The tour participants were also briefed and then continued on their way. Much like Rahm Emanuel, this is another example of a propagandist (who behaves as if he is paid by America's enemies) intentionally orchestrating a scene to provoke attention and whine about Israel. 

According to a source for the New York Post, Ro Khanna was invited to meet freed hostages and survivors of October 7th.

Khanna's team didn't even bother to respond.

His team was also offered an opportunity to meet with Druze civilians in the Golan Heights and a briefing on how aid is currently getting into Gaza. They didn't take it.

Now, if Ro Khanna genuinely believes that aid is not properly getting into Gaza, why not go to the briefing? If he thinks Israel is lying, wouldn't that be the perfect time to get proof?

But he didn't go, because those aren't his intentions. He didn't want to meet with victims of Hamas or those trying to get as much aid into Gaza as they can because they contradict his narrative.

And the narrative is all that matters.

Israel Loses Big Friend in Congress as US Senator Lindsey Graham passes away at 71 years old

 

US Senator Lindsey Graham (R-South Carolina) has passed away at the age of 71. A statment from his office confirmed the death, saying the Senator suffered from a brief and sudden illness. It went on to say that his family appreciates prayers at htis time and asks for privacy during this period.

Graham was seen as a staple of American political life for over 30 years. He first entered national US politics in 1992 as a member of the South Carolina House of Representatives. He eventually became a Senator of South Carolina in 2003, serving in the upper chamber for over 20 years. Over the last year and a half, he had been serving as the Chair of the Senate Budget Committee.

The Senator was heavily involved in both Americans domestic and foreign policy until the very end, having met with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky in Kyiv just last week.

Graham was also a fierce ally of Israel and its fight against Iran and its proxies. Israeli politicians like National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir are already offering their condolences. In a post on X, Ben Gvir wrote that Israel had lost one of its "greatest friends." He said Senator Graham stood with Israel "not because it was easy, but because he believed it was right."

Opposition leader Naftali Bennett also wrote a note about Senator Graham. On X, Bennett wrote "America has lost a devoted patriot, and Israel has lost one of its greatest friedns."

Graham was up for re-election during the November midterms this year.
