New record for Jewish visits to Har Habyos during Sukkot

 

Thousands of Jews visited the Temple Mount during the Sukkot holiday, with the number of visitors reaching a new record of 8,690 people. Throughout the intermediate days of the holiday, prayers and Hallel were held at the site with singing and dancing, with the participation of rabbis and Knesset members.

Rabbi Elisha Wolfson, Rosh Yeshiva of the Temple Mount Yeshiva, said: 

“The Holy One, Blessed be He, is revealing His love for us and performing tremendous miracles for us. It is moving to see the people of Israel returning their love to the Holy One, Blessed be He, and restoring the Divine Presence to Zion. Well done to the many visitors who demonstrate such self-sacrifice. In your merit, the Temple will be rebuilt."

Among those who ascended the Mount this week was Otzma Yehudit chairman and Minister Itamar Ben Gvir.

“October 7 was an enormous pain, a great pain. But today, three years later, it is Sukkot, a festival of joy, and there are many things that have happened since then that we can rejoice over."

He continued,

 “Hamas wanted to defeat us. They called it ‘Al-Aqsa Flood.’ And today, we are the masters of the Temple Mount! We are the masters of the prisons. We have turned the lives of their terrorists into hell. We distributed weapons and established civilian security squads. Three years later, the people of Israel are heading toward total victory."

“On this holiday, I pray here on the Temple Mount, in the most important place, for total victory, complete redemption, death to all the terrorists, and sovereignty here, in the most important place to the Jewish people. They wanted to win. We defeated them - first and foremost, here on the Temple Mount," 

Ben Gvir concluded.

Rav Dov Landau Calls Satmar Initiative to get people not to vote "wicked or stupid"

 

Lithuanian-haredi leader Rabbi Dov Lando sharply attacked those encouraging haredim to boycott the upcoming Knesset elections as an act of protest or for anti-Zionist ideological reasons.

Responding to the initiatives and voices on the fringes of the haredi community, he urged the community to go to the polls on election day, in order to protect the community's interests.

On Tuesday, during a closed meeting with members of the Degel HaTorah faction in Bnei Brak, Rabbi Lando addressed the growing phenomenon and expressed an unequivocal position in favor of active participation in the elections, for the purpose of safeguarding the interests of the haredi public.

"Woe to anyone who incites people not to go to the elections, woe to him - and I do not want to continue," Rabbi Lando told those present emphatically, adding that anyone promoting such a position is acting out of "either wickedness or stupidity."

Rabbi Lando’s remarks reflect the position of the mainstream Lithuanian Haredi leadership, which views participation in elections as a critical and central tool for protecting funding for the community’s educational institutions and public services.

With bloodstains on his shirt: Passengers who neutralized terrorist meets with Netanyahu

 Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu arrived at Ben Gurion Airport on Wednesday, where he welcomed the Israeli passengers who were on board the Flydubai flight whose copilot attempted to hijack and crash it. 

Among the passengers whom the Prime Minister met was Yaniv, one of the Israelis who jumped on the would-be hijacker and subdued him.

Yaniv apologized to the Prime Minister that his clothes were still covered in blood, to which Netanyahu replied: "It's an honor to meet you this way. How did you do it?"

The passenger answered: "We are a nation of lions." Netanyahu then embraced him and said: "I see you and I see a lion. You are a great hero."

"What you did is just unbelievable. You saved not only the passengers of the plane, but many others," the Prime Minister added.

After Netanyahu asked, Yaniv recounted the chain of events: "Someone screamed, and the lights went out. Someone wearing a white shirt stood by the door. Together, we pushed the door. The pilot who was stabbed was at the door, but he apparently managed to open it before collapsing. When I went in, I saw the terrorist on the devices between the two chairs."

"I grabbed the terrorist, choked him, and pulled him away from there. He tried to ruin the devices to neutralize the plane, which had its nose pointing down. I called another two guys who helped me grab him. I began to pull the steering wheel up, and I stopped the plane from diving."

Yaniv revealed that he learned to control the plane from the documentary series 'Mayday.' He added that at that point, the alternate pilot came and took charge.

No one s should be surprised that an entire flight from Israel was stopped and searched. at Amsterdam Airport

 

@RabbiPoupko

This week at Amsterdam's airport, an entire flight from Israel was stopped and searched. 

The crime?

If you are found to POSSESS items made in the Golan Heights or Judea and Samaria,  you can be sent to Dutch prison for SIX YEARS. 

This has shocked many, but it shouldn't. 

During the Holocaust, 107,000  DutchJews were deported from the Netherlands, of whom only about 5,200 survived. This is the lowest survival rate in any Western European country and is very much the result of the number of Dutch collaborators, like those who turned in Anne Frank. 

What is less known is that when all property of Jews was looted and embezzled, enabled by the Naz| regime, the Dutch government collected a 5% tax for the "transfer of ownership" from those who looted it. 

After the war, the city of Amsterdam continued collecting rents and fines from Jewish homeowners whose properties had been seized by the Nazis, and when Jews who survived came back and wanted their homes back, they had to pay all those fines and taxes before they could get their homes back.  

There is no religion, faith, or human system that can forgive such cruelty. 

We will never forget.

THE SECRET BEHIND THE PAGER ATTACK: Israel Silenced Hezbollah Operative Who Got Suspicious

 

In August 2024, Israel learned that a Hezbollah operative had begun to suspect the pagers that were eventually used in the infamous pager attack that killed or incapacitated thousands of Hezbollah terrorists and eliminated him in a strike that it designed to appear unrelated.

Details such as this one were revealed in an interview with former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant by Channel 12 News a year and a half ago but were not cleared by the military censor for publication until Monday evening.

Gallant also said that Iran sent scanning equipment to examine the pagers, which Israel also destroyed while making the incident appear unrelated. These two incidents threw Israel into a dilemma: detonate the pagers as soon as possible, or wait and risk discovery?

“In the first week of August it becomes clear to us that there is someone who suspects the pagers, [we] go to the elimination list and we eliminated him,” Gallant said in the interview. “Afterwards it becomes clear to us that testing devices are arriving that could examine these devices along with other things. And then during the process it becomes clear that somewhere there are pagers being tested.”

“The result is that you enter a situation, either you activate or it’s exposed within a short time,” Gallant added. “What is at stake is only one question, if you play it can you reach the full operation of walkie-talkies first. From constraint was born the strategic event.”

Gallant also revealed that the pagers bore the inscription “M-Tech” for “Mossad-Tech.”

Ultimately, Israel decided to detonate the pagers sooner rather than later. On Sept. 17, 2024, the pagers of Hezbollah terrorists exploded, followed the next day by their walkie-talkies, killing 59 people and wounding 4,500, many of them severely.

Terror in the Skies on a Dubai Plane towards Israel .....Israel Treats Flydubai Incident as Terror Attack After Pilot Stabbing Reports

 

Passenger Miriam, who was aboard the Flydubai flight, described the terrifying moments:

*“We heard screams on the plane. Then they opened the cockpit and saw blood. Someone had stabbed the pilot with a pocketknife.”

“We prayed ‘Shema Yisrael.’ The  Israelis, together with the crew, subdued the attacker. We made an emergency landing. There were moments when we thought we weren’t going to make it out alive.”

Israel Now Treating Flydubai Incident as Suspected Terror Attack

*Following security assessments and passenger testimony, Israeli authorities  are now treating the Flydubai incident as a suspected terrorist attack.

According to Amit Segal, preliminary findings indicate that the co-pilot repeatedly stabbed the captain. Crew members and passengers then managed to force their way into the cockpit and subdue the suspected attacker.

The investigation into the motive and full circumstances is ongoing.

Israeli officials are reportedly treating the Flydubai incident as a terror attack, after earlier reports raised the possibility of an attempted pilot suicide. 

Passengers said the co-pilot repeatedly stabbed the captain, causing the aircraft to plunge from 34,000 to 13,825 feet in four minutes. 

Crew members and passengers, including Israelis, reportedly forced their way into the cockpit and subdued the attacker, with some later seen in bloodstained shirts. A senior Israeli official said a “very serious disaster was averted,” adding that indications are growing the co-pilot intended to seize the plane and crash it with the passengers aboard.

Absurd accusations against Netanyahu make no sense

Caroline’s comments are compelling. The fact reports that Netanyahu had been warned about 10/7 are coming out three years later just before the election tells you all you need to know. The timing is highly suspicious and is quite likely pure politics.

All of these absurd accusations ask us to ignore Hamas’ secrecy and believe Sinwar shared his plans with non-allied regimes so that they’d tell Netanyahu.
Pure horses**t. https://t.co/i0hWQHWQ5v

Yigal Amir requested leave to visit his sick father and was denied

 

Larissa Amir Trimbobler, the wife of Yigal Amir, who assassinated Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin in 1995, has attacked National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir after her husband's request for a brief, special furlough due to his father's medical condition was denied.

According to Trimbobler, Amir submitted a request for a one-time furlough on September 9 following a deterioration in his father's condition. For three weeks, she said, he was asked to fill out forms, specify a requested date, and provide the names of guarantors for the furlough.

Larisa claimed that the process created hope that the request might be approved and wondered whether appeals made to Ben Gvir would influence the decision. From her perspective, she said, this was a humanitarian request, and she criticized the minister, "who has full authority to sign off on approval for such an exceptional furlough."

She wondered about Ben Gvir: "Perhaps he decided, after all, toward the end, to do a good deed? After all, even the hostile media would have had no reason to criticize him for agreeing to an unequivocally humanitarian request, and even if criticism had been voiced, it would only have benefited him electorally."

According to Larisa, Amir's attorney received the decision to reject the request yesterday.

The response sent to the attorney stated: "I hereby inform you that your client's request for a special furlough was not approved due to his dangerousness, as well as the position of intelligence and security officials, who oppose granting the prisoner the requested furlough. In addition, following an examination of the medical documentation concerning the prisoner's father, no justification was found to approve his request for a furlough on medical grounds, in light of the circumstances specified in the relevant directive."

She sharply criticized the reference to Amir's dangerousness. "The State of Israel will undoubtedly be placed in danger if a 56-year-old prisoner, who has already spent 31 years behind bars, spends a day or half a day with his seriously ill 85-year-old father," she wrote sarcastically.

She also criticized the determination that there was insufficient medical justification to approve the furlough. According to her, Amir's father is battling cancer that has metastasized to his spine and bones, has undergone several heart surgeries, and suffers from diabetes.

"As for the medical grounds, apparently they will only be considered sufficient when, God forbid, the patient is on his deathbed," she wrote, adding that, in her view, the father's medical condition should have justified approving the request.

: Parents Of Slain Hostage Almog Sarusi Welcome Baby Boy In Their 60s*

 

From unimaginable loss comes an extraordinary new life.

Nira and Yigal Sarusi, the parents of Almog Sarusi Z”L, have welcomed a baby boy named Lavi while in their 60s, more than two years after their son was murdered in Ham*s captivity.

On October 7, Almog escaped the Nova massacre with his girlfriend of five years, Shahar Gindi, and close friends Danielle Waldman, Noam Shai and Omri Ahrak. Their escape ended in horror when they came under attack. Shahar was shot and mortally wounded. Almog refused to abandon the woman he loved, remaining with her and desperately trying to save her. Shahar and their three friends were murdered, while Almog was kidnapped into Gaza.

After nearly 11 months in captivity, Almog was murdered alongside Hersh Goldberg Polin, Eden Yerushalmi, Carmel Gat, Alexander Lobanov and Ori Danino. Their bodies were recovered from a tunnel in Rafah in September 2024.

Then, amid their unbearable grief, Almog’s parents remembered something extraordinary.

Approximately 25 years earlier, eggs had been frozen during a medical procedure.

Now in their 60s, Nira and Yigal decided to try for another child. They found a surrogate and, after several attempts, the seemingly impossible happened.

A baby was born.

The pregnancy was kept private until Lavi’s brit milah in Ra’anana. The invitation contained four words that said everything:

“A miracle happened to us.”

Lavi was born on Yom Kippur.

After Almog escaped a massacre only to lose the woman he loved and three close friends, after he was dragged into Gaza, after months of captivity in the tunnels and ultimately murdered alongside five fellow hostages, the Sarusi family finally has a reason to smile again.

We can only imagine Almog Z”L looking down from Heaven, seeing some happiness return to his family as they hold the baby brother he never had the chance to meet.

Welcome to the world, Lavi. You were born into a family that will make sure you always know the name, courage and love of your big brother Almog. AM YISRAEL CHAI!

Mamzarani/Satmar is the arsonist that has decided to take credit for being a firefighter.

 

17 days after the Oct 7 Massacre, while Israel was still sifting through ashes to identify the 1200+ Jews who were raped, kidnapped & murdered, Zohran Mamdani led a pro-Hamas rally calling for the destruction of Israel.
