Why Are Rabbanim Protecting An Alleged Pedofille?

By Shoshanna Keats Jaskoll

In November 2018, I sat with Elly Sapper, Dassi Erlich and Nicole Meyer, the three sisters from Australia who have been working for years to bring their alleged sexual abuser, Malka Leifer, to justice. They were in Israel to try and pressure a justice system that they knew was being manipulated, even if they didn’t know by whom.

We sat there discussing possible culprits. Health Minister Yaakov Litzman was at the head of the list, along with a number of other rabbinic leaders in the Haredi world. As it turns out, we were right. It became clear this past month that numerous rabbis have been working to prevent Leifer’s extradition.

Who Is Malka Leifer?

Leifer is a former girls schools principal who stands officially accused on more than 74 counts of molestation of girls from Australia in Australia, and unofficially of many more girls in Israel and Australia.

Excellent Trump: For First Time Ever, U.S. Recognizes Golan Heights As ‘Under Israeli Control’

As The Daily Wire has reported numerous times, there has been a recent push among many for the U.S. to formally recognize Israel's control over the strategically sensitive Golan Heights region, which Israel first acquired in 1967's existential Six Day War defensive fight and formally annexed in 1981. 

Since 1981, however, the status of the Golan Heights has languished as a matter of formal U.S. recognition.

On December 18, a joint Senate resolution from Republican Sens. Ted Cruz (R-TX) and Tom Cotton (R-AR) called for formal recognition by thoroughly tracing the modern history of the Golan's legal status, from 1967 through the bloody years-long civil war raging in Syria through the present day. 

In January, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu made a direct pitch for formal U.S. recognition to National Security Advisor John Bolton. At a joint press conference with Bolton, Netanyahu stated, "Tomorrow, if weather permits, we will go up to the Golan Heights — it is tremendously important for our security. When you are there, you'll be able to understand perfectly why we will never leave the Golan Heights and why it is important that all countries recognize Israeli sovereignty over the Golan Heights." And most recently, some Democrats last month indicated the possibility that there might be bipartisan support for some measure of U.S. recognition — either formal or de facto — of the Golan Heights.

Now, Axios reports that, for the first time, the U.S. State Department — long a parochial bastion of pro-Arab, anti-Israel bias — has taken the comparatively mild step of referring to the Golan Heights not as "occupied territory," but instead as "under Israeli control":

Rav Kanievsky Instructs A Kollel Guy Looking To Buy An Apt. To Purchase A Sefer Torah

The following story, released by BeChadrei Chareidim, has gained notoriety and is the subject of discussion in Kollelim throughout Bnei Brak.

I don't know if the story is true .....

A Kollel Yungerman entered the Hod V’Hadar Institute in Bnei Brak a few weeks ago, an institute that teaches STaM, explaining he wishes to buy a ‘mehudar’ Sefer Torah. The head of the institute was taken by surprise by the Kollel Yungerman's request, explaining that such a Sefer Torah can cost as much as NIS 200,000.

It was explained to the Kollel Yungerman that such a purchase is not made spontaneously, but after careful thought and consideration. The Kollel Yungerman then explained that he came to the institute directly from the home of HaGaon HaRav Chaim Kanievsky Shlita, where he asked the rav what to do, explaining he wishes to buy an apartment in Bnei Brak immediately, but he only has NIS 500,000.

GEORGIA LAWMAKER PROPOSES BILL TO REGULATE MEN’S TESTICLES

A Georgia lawmaker proposed a “testicular bill of rights” package Monday in response to the state’s advancement of a bill to outlaw abortions after a fetal heartbeat is detected. Democratic state Rep. Dar’shun Kendrick seeks to regulate male bodies in response to what she contests is the regulation of women’s wombs.

The bill would require men to ask permission from their partners before taking Viagra or erectile dysfunction medication and wait 24 hours before purchasing a sex toy. The lawmaker wants to classify sex without a condom as “aggravated assault” and ban vasectomy procedures.

Men would also be forced to begin paying child support before a woman reaches eight weeks in pregnancy.

Kendrick announced the legislation on Twitter.

“You want our wombs? We’re coming for your testicles,” Kendrick tweeted Tuesday.

Her bill is a reaction to the Georgia House’s approval of a bill in March that seeks to ban abortions after a fetal heartbeat is detected. The bill makes exceptions in cases where the mother’s life is in danger and allows for abortions in cases of rape and incest, but only if a woman files a police report.

Kendrick called the fetal heartbeat abortion bill “a case to test Roe v. Wade,” The Washington Post reported Tuesday.

Pathetic Jews That Dance with Omar

Turncoats, stop playing the Jewish Card, please!

First let’s get this straight, that it is possible to be Jewish and anti-Semitic all at once, and all in the same person.  
We  include "Progressive Liberal Jews"!!

It is no use arguing the fine points of linguistics or semantics when the proof of it is what see and hear every day. That makes it scientific. Not just my opinion.

The Jewish Card gives you no license…no license to go rogue and stab your people in the back.

By which I mean the type of man or woman who publicly takes sides against the Jewish people and without breaking stride, follows up with – “and I am Jewish.”

Jewish Pride from the dark side, and as if we need to be reminded that we are saddled with wicked sons.

As are these media mavens, who support Omar, and vouch for the Democrats whose House anti-hate Resolution was a joke…except that it wasn’t funny.

The Jewish people were snubbed. We’re in danger. I shouldn’t have to spell it out.  

Song Written by Ori Ansbacher The Girl Murdered by Arab Animals!

Friends of Ori Ansbacher of the town of Tekoa on Tuesday presented a clip of the song she wrote and which was made public after her brutal murder by an Arab terrorist.

"After the first time we played the song in front of the family, the first reaction was to play the song again," recalled Ori’s friends. 

"During the shiva we found ourselves playing the song again and again to the family and to ourselves, and Ori's presence was felt every time. 

One of the things that came up from the song is that Ori understood that before we try to make peace outside, you have to make peace within us.”

EU Will Require US Visitors To Apply For Visa-like Travel Pass

Americans traveling to Europe will soon have to add a new item to their packing lists.

Starting in 2021, the European Union will require US visitors to get a pre-approved, visa-like travel pass issued by the European Travel Information and Authorization System.

The permit will cost about $7.90 and will have to be requested at least four days before the journey—making romantic last-minute jaunts to Paris impossible.

But permission will be good for three years and for multiple trips in and out of the Schengen Zone, which covers 26 countries.

Under current rules, Americans can travel in Europe without a visa for up to 90 days.

The new requirement will serve as a security check, EU officials said Friday.

Ocasio-Cortez Fundraising Email: Let's End The US-Israeli Relationship

Well, if you thought there would be a day where the far left wing of the House Democratic caucus would quiet down a bit, given their anti-Semitism issues, you’d be wrong. 

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) sent a fundraising email last night suggesting that AIPAC was coming after her and that the U.S.-Israeli relationship should be severed. No, I’m not kidding. This is insanity. 

AOC has been one of the few defenders of Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN), who once again was accused of anti-Semitism for suggesting those who support Israel are exhibiting dual loyalty. The latter is a common anti-Semitic smear. Omar has also peddled the talking point about Jewish money and influence with her “all about the Benjamins” tweet.

London Dayan Yonathan Abraham Forced to Resign Because of Massive Scandal

After serving in the rabbinical courts and appointed as a member of the Great Court in London at the age of 37, the Dayan, Rabbi Avraham Avraham, announced suddenly on Saturday that he resigned from the Bais Din  and his Kehillah but did not explain the reason behind the resignation.

It was very sudden, and we have no idea why," said a senior London rabbi whose name was not published to the British Jewish Chronicle website.

Chief Justice Rabbi Menachem Galai said after the surprising resignation: "The London court supports you and your communities and your friends, so I want to reassure you that the preparations are already underway to ensure that Dayan at a high level will be found alongside the other distinguished judges."

"It is a sense of responsibility and sadness that I declare today that I am resigning from the Court of London, the Beit Din is the pillar of our community and it was a great honor and privilege to serve as Dayan for the last 17 years," said Rabbi Yonatan Avraham, 

Harav Avraham studied in Gateshead, Lakewood, New Jersey and Jerusalem. He had previously lived in Australia, where he served for three years as a judge at the Rabbinical Court in Melbourne.

Girl Who Executed Nazis After Seducing Them Dies Aged 92

A World War II heroine who used her harmless appearance to gain the trust of Nazis before executing them has died in The Netherlands, aged 92.

Freddie Oversteegen was born in Haarlem, near Amsterdam on September 6, 1925 and raised by her communist mother.

She was just 14 when she joined the Dutch resistance, the Daily Mail reports.

Together with her older sister Truus and their friend Hannie Schaft, she blew up bridges and railway tracks with dynamite, smuggled Jewish children out of concentration camps and executed as many Nazis as she could, using a firearm hidden in the basket of her bike.

Two Israelis among dead as Ethiopian Airlines plane crashes, killing 157 aboard

 An Ethiopian Airlines flight with 157 people thought to be on board crashed shortly after takeoff Sunday morning from Ethiopia’s capital while headed to Nairobi, the airline said.

The airline later confirmed that two Israeli passengers were on board the aircraft that went down.

There were no immediate details on what caused the crash of the Boeing 737-8 MAX plane, which was new and had been delivered to the airline in November.

Ethiopia’s state broadcaster EBC said all passengers were dead, adding that they included 33 nationalities.

Israel’s Foreign Ministry had said earlier it was checking whether Israeli passengers were aboard and monitoring the situation.

The Addis Ababa-Nairobi route is often used by Israelis, as there are no direct flights between Israel and Kenya. Channel 13 reported that the plane that crashed had been in Israel as recently as last Wednesday.

The state-owned Ethiopian Airlines, widely considered the best-managed airline in Africa, calls itself Africa’s largest carrier and has ambitions of becoming the gateway to the continent.

''Excising the Gid Hanasheh (Sciatic Nerve)"

On this daf the Talmud relates a story, that shows us the great fear the rabbis had anyone violating Torah prohibitions.

It happened that Bar Piyouli was standing before Shmuel and was excising the gid hanasheh ( One is prohibited to consume the gid hanasheh) from a piece of thigh meat.

He was cutting it flush off the surface, in accordance with the opinion of Reb Yehuda.

Shmuel said to him 

" Dig deeper into the meat,..... had I not witnessed this myself, you would have fed me something forbidden."

When Bar Piyouli heard that Shmuel was accusing him of feeding him that which was prohibited, he got frightened and the knife fell from his hand!

Shmuel to comfort him, said:

 " Do not fear, I am not accusing you of being ignorant or negligent, I understand that the one who taught you how to excise the gid hanasheh, taught you in accordance with the opinion of R Yehuda, that one can remove the part of the gid hanasheh that is Biblically prohibited, but the meat surrounding it, does not have to be removed."

However my opinion is in accordance with R' Meir that one has to remove the meat that is attached to the gid hanasheh as well, I therefore suggested that you "dig deeper."

DIN: I am paraphrasing the words of Shmuel!
