Ben Gvir Opposes Meron Plan "We’re Racing Toward the Next Disaster"... DIN Message "Let them do what the H they want"

 

What Ben-Gvir doesn't understand is that Charedim by-in-large are reckless and don't care what he thinks and could care less about safety! 

They didn't allow the Israeli Government to regulate and provide safety measures in Miron for decades! 

It didn't too long for 45 Chardeie men to get killed by other Charedim in a stampede in this very place, and what did their "gedoilim" say? 

They said that these victims were martyrs that died "Al Kiddush Hashem" .....  These same "gedoilim" don't think IDF soldiers getting killed die "Al Kiddush Hashem"

Utter insanity!

All those who smothered the 45 people in Meron, stepped on their living bodies, pushed them to the floor, each and every one of them is called according to the Torah a "רוצח " and would have to go to the Arei Miklat, and wait there until the Kohein Gadol died! 

In Bnei-Brak they refused to go to shelters? Why you naively ask? 

Because as the Israeli Yated wrote, "since it was the Zionist Government that made those regulations, it was prohibited to listen to them" They instead listened to a Chazon Ish that said that Bnei-Brak would never be bombed! 

Charedim (grown men) climb up on 30 story Crains in Yerushalayim during protests, putting their very lives at risk! They put their bodies in front of buses and cars, and pull out sefarim so it shouldn't be "Bittul Torah" ..Two of those who stopped traffic over the last year have been killed and 3 seriously injured.

What are the results? 

Tragedy!!!! 

Tragedy in Meron, Tragedy in Bnei-Brak, and Tragedy in Yerushlayim!!

My message to Ben-Gvir is: Let them do what the hell they want, they won't listen to you even when they see tragedies! 

National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir held a security assessment at Meron on Wednesday and toured the site with senior police commanders and other officials as plans take shape for Lag B’Omer.

However, Ben-Gvir harshly criticized the plan approved by the Home Front Command for managing the Lag B’Omer event at Meron.

According to Ben Gvir, the proposed framework does not reflect realities on the ground. While it formally limits gatherings to about 1,500 participants per area, multiple designated zones could result in thousands of people being present on Har Meron at the same time—posing a serious safety risk.

The discussion took place against the backdrop of ongoing security tensions in southern Lebanon. The minister emphasized that the ceasefire with Hezbollah has been repeatedly violated in recent days, turning any large gathering into a potential target.

During the meeting, Ben Gvir stressed that he would not approve the event without explicit security authorization and a revised, realistic plan from the Home Front Command that ensures participant safety.

“I just held a special situational assessment in Meron, where I heard from all relevant parties—both security officials and Chareidi community leaders,” he said. “My conclusion is clear: I’m raising a red flag—we are racing, with our eyes wide open, toward the next disaster.”

“Unfortunately, the Home Front Command is presenting a sophisticated-sounding but unrealistic position. Without explicit approval and a genuine plan that guarantees safety, I cannot authorize the event.”

“I demand that the Home Front Command come to its senses and approve a workable framework. We will not abandon the lives of our Chareidi, secular, and Dati Leumi brothers who come to Meron.”

Journalist Warns U.S. in 2026 More Dangerous for Jews Than 1930s Germany

-Award-winning journalist Kevin Deutsch says antisemitism from both the far left and far right has created a more perilous environment for American Jews in 2026 than in 1930s Germany, as political movements on both sides target Israel and the Jewish community.

In a recent interview with Alan Skorski, Deutsch, author of the watchdog Jewish news Substack “After October 7,” described a coordinated campaign that has isolated Jews and Israel across the political spectrum.

Skorski pointed to examples in deep blue and solid red states. In New York City, voters elected Mamdani as mayor, while in Florida, antisemite James Fishback is running as a Republican candidate for governor and Dan Bilzerian is challenging Jewish Republican Rep. Randy Fine for his congressional seat.

Deutsch said the far left’s assault on Israel began as part of a “social justice” agenda, reviving blood libels by accusing Israel of genocide in Gaza. On the far right, figures like Fishback have exploited leftist antisemitism to promote their own hatred, he said. Fishback, who promotes an “America Only” platform, has received substantial donations from Democratic Muslims who back his antisemitic views, according to Deutsch.

“The Democrats are done with Israel,” Deutsch said, citing a vote by 40 Democratic senators in support of Sen. Bernie Sanders’ bill to halt all U.S. military aid to Israel.

He urged the Republican Party to erect a firewall against candidates like Fishback, warning that failure to do so would leave Israel without American support and Jews increasingly isolated.

Skorski drew parallels to 1930s Germany, noting that while Adolf Hitler created the Nazi movement, today various movements have aligned to turn government policy against Israel. Deutsch pointed to a professional propaganda campaign funded by Qatar and the Muslim Brotherhood, amplified by left-wing NGOs that have overwhelmed Israel’s ability to counter the information war.

“The DSA, like the Nazis, are employing a purity test,” Deutsch said, referring to the Democratic Socialists of America. “Opposing Israel, regardless of any other issue, is mandatory.” He said the DSA is running candidates at every level — from school boards to local civil rights commissions — in a bottom-up strategy that turns Jews into proxies for Israel.

Deutsch also criticized an “AIPAC-tracker” run by a Marxist and a Groyper that singles out pro-Israel funding in an effort to strip Jews of their civil rights to support the Jewish state.

The journalist highlighted the phenomenon of “tokenization,” in which Jewish figures such as those associated with J Street, former Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel and Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro have publicly criticized Israel, creating what he called a “social permission structure” for broader attacks on the Jewish state and, by extension, Jews.

Deutsch’s warnings come amid heightened concerns in Jewish communities following the Oct. 7, 2023, Hamas attacks on Israel and the subsequent surge in antisemitic incidents across the United States.

Police Release New Rendering in 1989 Cold Case of 96% Ashkenazi Jewish Woman

 

Arizona officials are hoping new renderings will help identify the victim in a 1989 cold case.

On Nov. 24, 1989, human remains were found off Interstate 40 near the Hualapai Mountains. The Mohave County Sheriff’s Office determined the remains were a partially decomposed white woman.

On Dec. 2 of that same year, a detective also found what is believed to be a fragment of a handmade white blouse with a blue and purple floral pattern near a tree.

The victim was described as 5-foot-5, about 115 pounds, and between 25 and 30 years old.

In 2016, her DNA profile was entered into CODIS, the FBI-run database that stores DNA profiles to help law enforcement solve crimes. In 2021, investigators learned it had been entered and contacted a forensic lab in Texas to develop a profile for public genealogy databases GEDmatch and FamilyTreeDNA, which are used with law enforcement.

Officials said the victim was 96% Ashkenazi Jewish, which made tracing her ancestry and locating relatives especially difficult.

This year, investigators partnered with a New Jersey public college that houses the Investigative Genetic Genealogy Center in hopes the IGG team can identify her. A forensic artist also created a rendering of what she may have looked like based on skeletal remains, the blouse fragment, and earrings she was wearing.

Anyone with information is asked to contact the Special Investigation Unit at 928-753-073, extension 4044, and reference DR#89-4531.

New Footage Emerges from London Terror Attack

 

Moments before stabbing two Jews, the attacker — knife in hand — is seen chasing an ultra-Orthodox man down the street as  the victim screams for police in a harrowing scene.

Initial reports claim the attacker in the London stabbing incident was able to move freely  for several minutes before being stopped.

This is the moment the terrorist is taken down after stabbing two Jewish people in Golders Green.

Dramatic economic sanctions: A-G cancels tax benefits for donations to yeshivas

 

Attorney General Gali Baharav-Miara delivered a major economic blow to the yeshiva world today (Wednesday), ruling that Torah institutions attended by draft-eligible students who fail to report for military service will no longer qualify for tax benefits for donors.

According to her decision, yeshivas in which draft-age students evade enlistment in the Israel Defense Forces will no longer be able to grant donors income tax credits under Section 46 of Israeli law.

The Charedi response was swift, led by Degel HaTorah chairman MK Moshe Gafni, who launched a harsh attack against the attorney general.

“This is an open declaration of war against the Torah world and Judaism in the State of Israel," Gafni declared. “This is no longer a legal question - it is a systematic and obsessive ideological persecution against the haredi community and against everything that represents the Jewish identity of the state."

He added that, in his view, the attorney general is abusing her authority and “using her powers to harm Torah scholars and their institutions in an unacceptable manner."

Gafni continued: “I call on the public not to surrender to improper dictates and not to accept a reality in which a legal official runs the country and decides against its most basic values."

Toward the end of his remarks, Gafni directly blamed Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for allowing Baharav-Miara to remain in office.

“It is inconceivable that such a severe move should pass in silence," he said. “I do not understand how Prime Minister Netanyahu continues to keep her in her position. This is a grave failure, and I call on him to put an immediate end to this situation. It is unacceptable for the State of Israel to be led by someone who consistently acts against Judaism and against its Torah-observant citizens."

United Torah Judaism chairman MK Yitzhak Goldknopf also condemned the decision.

“It appears that the attorney general has lost all restraint and boundaries in her war against Torah scholars in the Holy Land," Goldknopf said. “The request submitted to the court is a serious attempt to carry out a maneuver against the Torah world and harm the ability of donors to assist Torah students, instead of the state funding the yeshivas as it was supposed to do."

He argued that Section 46 was intended to encourage donations to public institutions, “not to serve as a punitive tool or become an enforcement mechanism for the draft law."

“Revoking the benefit is collective punishment - disproportionate and immoral," he added.

Goldknopf concluded by comparing the situation to organizations that encouraged military refusal during protests.

Harav Avishai David of Beit Shemesh "The Establishment of the Jewish State is the Most Magnificent Event in Jewish History !!

 

Harav David Shlitah is a very well-respected Rav and Posik in Beit Shemesh. Finally a prominent Rav in a major Jewish Charedie City, not afraid to tell the truth!

 I see a slow change in the Chardeie culture finally speaking out and refuting the lies and propaganda of Yeshivishe R"Y! 

Listen to his lecture:

The Complexity of   יום הזיכרון and יום העצמות

YUTorah Online

Charedie Rabbis Quiet as their Students disrupt Israeli lives

 Police report an illegal protest is blocking Route 4 near Bnei Brak, with clashes between demonstrators and officers. 

The highway is closed from Aluf Sadeh to Em  HaMoshavot in both directions, with traffic diverted to alternate routes.

Similar protests blocked traffic in Jerusalem and Beit Shemesh where people were stuck in buses and cars for hours! 

Qatar behind ICC Arrest Warrant for Netanyahu .... Wall Street Journal

 

Testimony cited in a Wall Street Journal editorial raises suspicions that Qatar allegedly promised to “take care of” International Criminal Court (ICC) chief prosecutor Karim Khan if he advanced an arrest warrant against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

According to the report, the claims are based on an affidavit submitted to the FBI, supported by audio recordings. The affidavit was provided by a person familiar with a private intelligence operation linked to the case, who requested anonymity. It has been shared with several members of the U.S. Congress.

The Smash House Story

 

The story has been spreading across WhatsApp groups and frum news sites for the past several days. The details vary depending on which version one encountered. A family in the Lakewood area was without parents at home one evening. Dinner was ordered through Uber Eats. The intended restaurant was Smash House Burgers — a kosher establishment with locations in several cities, well known to many. The actual restaurant the order went to was Smashburger, the national chain that serves bacon, cheeseburgers, and milkshakes.

In one version, the family caught the mistake when the packaging looked unfamiliar and the food was not eaten. 

In another, three children sat down and ate before anyone realized what had happened. The differences matters, and should not be glossed over, but for what needs to be said now, the discrepancy is almost beside the point. Because in either version of the story, the same critical safeguard was missing.

There was no kosher seal – or rather: there was no checking for one.

Other conversations abound:   

“Kosher restaurant shouldn’t use a confusing name!”  

“Why do we need to follow goyisha names for restaurants?”

“Uber Eats should label kosher establishments more clearly!”

“Hashgachos shouldn’t permit menu items that resemble cheeseburgers!”

 And more.

But maybe, in this modern era, we should retool our Chinuch.  Maybe we should create a curriculum that addresses the underlying issue – something that Chazal had addressed long, long ago – The concept of Chosamos.

Zelensky the Ukrainian Threatens Israel over grain shipment from Russia that he claims are "stolen"

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy on Tuesday issued a sharp criticism of Israel over what he described as the arrival of a vessel carrying “stolen" Ukrainian grain to an Israeli port.

“In any normal country, purchasing stolen goods is an act that entails legal liability. This applies, in particular, to grain stolen by Russia," Zelenskyy said in a statement. “Another vessel carrying such grain has arrived at a port in Israel and is preparing to unload. This is not - and cannot be - legitimate business."

Zelenskyy added that Israeli authorities “cannot be unaware of which ships are arriving at the country’s ports and what cargo they are carrying."

According to the Ukrainian president, Russia has been “systematically seizing grain on temporarily occupied Ukrainian land and organizing its export through individuals linked to the occupiers," describing such actions as violations of Israeli law.

“Ukraine has taken all necessary steps through diplomatic channels to prevent such incidents. However, we see that yet another such vessel has not been stopped," he stated.

Police Arrest Chareidie Hoodlooms that attacked Charedi soldier and his friends in Beit Shemesh

 

The police announced today (Tuesday) the arrest of three suspects, residents of Beit Shemesh aged 32 and 41, on suspicion of involvement in the severe assault of a Charedi soldier and his friends during last Shabbat.

The arrests were carried out following an intensive investigation that began immediately after the end of Shabbat.

The incident began on Friday night, when a group of dozens of youths affiliated with an extremist sect in the city arrived at the home of a Charedi soldier. According to the complaint filed by the soldier, the extremists began to threaten him and his family, while shouting, "we will burn down your house."

A violent confrontation developed on the scene between the extremists and a group of worshippers from a nearby synagogue who came to defend the soldier. During the disturbance, the soldier and his friends were attacked. One of the soldier's friends sustained significant facial injuries.

The three detainees are currently under investigation at the Beit Shemesh station, and the police will seek today from the Magistrate's Court to extend their detention.

Crazy Chassidim Use a "Graphologist" , in order to analyze personality traits and determine compatibility.

It is no secret that the shidduchim world within the Hasidic community has been experiencing a serious crisis in recent years. Many older bachelors remain unmarried for long periods, while their peers have already built families, raising children and guiding them in a life of Torah and Mitzvos.

The situation in which one young man remains single from an entire class is heartbreaking. Beyond the personal pain of the unmarried individual, his friends also face a difficult reality. On the one hand, they want to maintain their relationship with him; on the other, it’s hard to ignore the feelings of jealousy that may arise when meeting or speaking with someone who has not yet had the chance to establish a home.

While there is no single explanation for why some individuals do not become engaged even after dozens or hundreds of dates, recent accounts suggest an interesting phenomenon that may be contributing significantly to the crisis.

From conversations with older singles and parents, a concerning picture emerges, as reported on the Emess (Kol Chai) site. In some Hasidic circles, it has become common to send the handwriting of a prospective couple to a graphologist before finalizing a match, in order to analyze personality traits and determine compatibility.

This practice is especially widespread in one of the larger chasidic groups in Israel. In many cases, families consult well-known graphologists, sometimes considered among the best in the country, to decide whether to proceed with a proposed match.

“What’s holding the sector back in recent years is this issue of graphology. Ninety percent [of matches] are rejected,” says “A,” who has experienced the crisis firsthand and asked to remain anonymous. “I understand that in Gur Hasidic dynasty they’ve only recently begun to scale this back.”

He adds: “This has led to a large number of unmarried young men within the community. People have become almost addicted to it. It’s a miracle it hasn’t spread to the Lithuanian or Sephardi sectors. I personally had several good matches this past year that could have progressed, but the graphologist said they weren’t suitable.”

Another individual, “T,” shared a similar experience: “I once dated a girl who wouldn’t move forward in any match without approval from a certain graphologist. Eventually she got fed up and switched to someone else, because the first one rejected all her matches.”

He added: “At one point I met that graphologist and told him: ‘Stop destroying homes that could be built in Israel. Even if it’s your livelihood, there are other ways to make a living without harming people like this.’”

“B,” a parent of two older sons navigating the matchmaking system, offered further insight: “A very senior graphologist told me that those who say whether to go ahead with a match or not are charlatans motivated by money. A graphologist can analyze personality, but should never determine compatibility.”

He continued: “He even told me that if he had analyzed his own handwriting and that of his wife, he would have concluded they were completely incompatible, yet thank G-d they’ve been happily married for 40 years.”

These testimonies come from people directly affected by the matchmaking crisis, who have chosen to speak out in hopes of raising awareness and perhaps contributing to at least a partial solution.

Ha Ha!! Ilhan Omar thinks we were in Eleven World Wars! Reads World War II as ‘World War Eleven’

 

Online reaction was swift and intense. Avi Glaserman questioned, “How the hell was she elected into office if she thinks (II) in Roman numerals equals 11?”

Others piled on. A commenter identified as Melissa Rubin from Pennsylvania wrote, “How can she think there have been 11 world wars? She obviously misread Roman numeral II from a speech a staffer wrote for her: Perhaps because she graduated from Quality Learning Center.”

Another user, Michael Sternstein, posted: “I am embarrassed she is my congresswoman but then again what can I expect? She graduated from Quality Learing Center and her family tree is a circle since she married her own brother.”

The moment also revived past criticism from Donald Trump, who previously referred to Omar as a “low IQ individual” countless times.

JBN has verified the authenticity of the clip, with C-SPAN footage confirming Omar’s remarks.

Rabbi Yechiel Farkash, Facing Extradition to Israel for Alleged Sexual Abuse of Students at Bnei Brak Yeshiva Denied Bond Ahead of Extradition Hearing

WARNING! TERRIBLE REPORT! 

Explicit Language

 Lakewood Resident, Rabbi Yechiel Farkash, Facing Extradition to Israel for Alleged Sexual Abuse of Students at Bnei Brak Yeshiva Where He Taught, Denied Bond Ahead of Extradition Hearing

According to a complaint filed in New Jersey Federal Court, Rabbi Yechiel Farkash, 43, was working as a rebbi, menahel, and remedial teacher at Yeshiva Toras Hachayim in Bnei Brak between 2020 and 2023. During that time, the complaint alleges, he began giving Victim 1 extra attention relative to other students, summoning him to Farkash's office often, buying him clothing, and giving him money for that purpose. According to the complaint Victim 1 was living at Keren Hayeled, a boarding house in Bnei Brak that caters to orphans, children with mental illness, and children who have experienced abuse or neglect.

On multiple occasions between June 2021 and October 2023, according to the complaint, Farkash called Victim 1, who was a teenager, to his office, where he would hug Victim 1 from the front or back, and occasionally press his erect genitalia against Victim 1's body. In June of 2022, according to the complaint, Farkash and Victim 1 visited the Knesset in honor of Victim 1's birthday. During the drive, the complaint alleges, Farkash touched Victim 1 near his lower abdomen and genitalia, and reminded Victim 1 of everything Farkash had bought him when Victim 1 resisted, which made Victim 1 stop resisting. The complaint alleges that while in a Knesset elevator Farkash hugged Victim 1 and pressed his genitalia into Victim 1's body.

Aliyah continues: Nearly 19,000 Jews move to Israel amid war....UK Aliya hits 40 year High

 

Nearly 19,000 Jews immigrated to Israel over the past year, arriving from 103 countries despite ongoing war and regional tensions.

Russia, the US, and France led in numbers, with rising immigration from Western countries linked to growing antisemitism.

Most newcomers settled in central Israel and Jerusalem

Leaving Britain? UK aliyah hits 40-year high as antisemitism rises fast

According to a new report from the Institute for Jewish Policy Research, 742 Jews from the United Kingdom made aliyah in 2025, the highest annual total since the mid-1980s.

Over the past two decades, aliyah from the UK has remained stable, typically ranging between 400 and 740 people per year, with a long-term average of about 566 annually.

In practical terms, that means roughly 2 out of every 1,000 British Jews make aliyah each year, higher than other countries like Canada but still far below places like France, where migration levels are significantly higher.

So this is not, at least yet, a mass exodus. But something is changing.

Firstly, this marks two consecutive years of growth, rising from 561 immigrants in 2024 to 742 in 2025.

Secondly, since October 7, studies show British Jews are more likely than before to consider aliyah, even if many have not yet acted on it.

That change is especially pronounced among younger Jews, Orthodox communities, and those who have personally experienced antisemitism.

Many British Jews find that there are many factors to consider regarding aliyah. Economic opportunities, family, and connection to Israel all play a role.

Antisemitism in the UK has surged in recent years, which reshapes how many Jews view their place in British society.
