The organization, Dawlat al-Islam, released a statement saying that the abductions were aimed at taking revenge against Israel for the killing of three of their operatives in the West Bank months ago. There has been no official confirmation of the claim's veracity.

Security forces fear that three teenage yeshiva boys, all 16 years of age, one of them from the USA, were kidnapped in the West Bank after they went missing from a hitchhiking spot in the Gush Etzion area Thursday night. 

The youths went missing during the course of Thursday night and security forces are conducting sweeping searches of the area.

Israel says it holds the Palestinian Authority responsible for the well-being of the missing youths.

The Jerusalem Post has learned that one of the three is an American citizen. US Ambassador Dan Shapiro has been briefed on the situation.

Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu has been briefed on the latest developments of the search. Netanyahu convened an emergency security cabinet session with his top defense chiefs at the Kirya Defense Ministry compound in Tel Aviv.

The army said on Friday that it was seeking intelligence leads that could shed light on the fate of the missing youths. The IDF said that it was holding routine situational assessments with other security arms in order to ascertain the whereabouts of the missing yeshiva students.

While they do strongly fear the boys were kidnapped, security forces have not yet been able to rule out all other possibilities police said.

Meanwhile, security forces have also placed roadblocks on roadways leading to the border with Egypt and the Gaza Strip for fear that this event is a kidnapping by Islamist extremists who may seek to transfer the three Israelis to Gaza.

According to reports, the IDF and the Shin Bet security service are in touch with their counterparts in the Palestinian Authority security apparatus in an effort to advance the search.

A torched car that was found alongside a highway in the vicinity of the search. Investigators towed away the car and will begin examining the remains in an effort to determine whether there is any connection to the missing students search.

Police were in touch with the families and said that they have no reason to believe that the teenagers decided to go missing on their own, or run away from home or their yeshiva.

A spokesman for one of the families, said that the missing teen was with a friend when he disappeared. He was making his normal trek home for Shabbat from his high-school yeshiva, Makor Chaim in Kfar Etzion, as he does every week.

He called his father around from the hitching post and said he had already left school. Initially his father did not worry, because his son often took his time coming home and sometimes did not arrive until late at night.

But after midnight, the father called his son's phone. When he could not reach him by 2 a.m. he personally went to the police station. Until morning, the father held out hope, that his son had gone to a friend's home to sleep. A series of SMS message in the morning, revealed that this was not the case.

Palestinian media on Friday reported that a large number of Israeli forces had been deployed to the Hebron vicinity in search of the boys who went missing earlier in the morning.

Palestinian news agency Ma'an cited sources in the vicinity as saying Israeli forces had raided various home in the city of Dura, located southwest of Hebron, in search of the missing boys.

Frum Moroccan Father kills his two children!

Unsuspecting kids arrived at their father's house to start a carefree summer vacation with family and friends, little did they know that in just a few hours their so-called loving dad would end their lives; neighbor: 'In the evening they were still playing water wars with their cousins'.

A relative of the father who stabbed his 10-year-old son Yishai Levy and 12-year-old daughter Sarah Levy, told Ynetnews that in the past he threatened his ex-wife saying, "If you won't let me see the kids, you won't see them ever again".

The organization that represented the mother during the divorce process said she was afraid he would hurt the children.

Despite the fact the he turned himself in, the suspect refused to cooperate with the investigators. The police seized files documenting the divorce process in the suspect's home. The Ramle Magistrate Court extended his arrest. The police claimed that "the motive for the murders is the ongoing dispute the suspect had with his ex-wife regarding the custody agreement."

A public defense attorney who was appointed to represent the suspect said he appeared disturbed. "I talked with the suspect and felt that despite the quietness he projected, inside he was upset," said the attorney. The suspect refused his attorney and the judge's suggestion to undergo a psychiatric evaluation. Judge Rivka Glatt ordered the Israel Prison Service to keep a close watch on the suspect.

Yesterday the children arrived in Israel for a visit and few hours later they were murdered by their father. The mother, who lives in the US, received the devastating news and is making her way to Israel. According to a family relative, in recent years the visitation arrangements between the divorced couple had changed.

"At first it was agreed that the children will visit three times a year, but after a while it was reduced to twice a year. He kept telling us that his soul is empty when the kids are not around. He kept saying that she was purposely making it hard for him to see them, so we believe that he thought he was getting back at her."

Up until the divorce, the couple lived in Yashresh community south of Ramle in central Israel. During that time, the wife made several complaints to the police regarding domestic violence. In one of the incidents the suspect was sentenced to community service and in another incident the wife moved to a women's shelter.

After the divorce the wife and children moved to the US and in an agreement authorized by the court it was determined that the father could see his kids twice a year. In Israel, the wife was represented by Rackman Center for the Advancement of the Status of Woman.

The head of the center, Director of the Center: Prof. Ruth Halperin-Kaddari, said that the ex-wife was a new immigrant who suffered financial difficulties as a result of her ex-husband's refusal to pay child support. "She returned to her family in the United States, who supported her financially and helped her rebuild the children's lives.

"During the divorce legal proceeding the mother warned that her soon-to-be ex-husband might hurt the kids and raised her concerns regarding their visits to their father's house. I want to stress that the move to the US was conducted with the father's agreement and despite the complicated situation between the two she made sure to maintain the relationship between him and the kids," said Halperin-Kaddari.

Another family relative of the suspect said that he talked about the children's visit and was very excited about it. "The kids arrived yesterday and the joy here was great. The kids played with their cousins and afterwards we all ate dinner together and as far as I could see there wasn't anything unusual or any sign of distress. We went home at about 9:30 pm and after two hours we learned of the horrific news".

The relative insisted that the suspect appeared to be a normative person and a model father, but after the divorce he was different. "He talked about how the distance from the kids was depressing him, but he was optimistic and believed that things would change for the better. Gradually his joy of living had disappeared."

An 11-year-old girl from the community, whose family lives next to the suspect, was playing with the suspect's children yesterday. The girl told Ynetnews: "we met in their backyard and played until sundown. We haven't seen each other for six months and they said school was boring in the US and that they missed their friends in Israel. In the evening they were still playing water war with their cousins. They were good friends".

The morning after the murder Yashresh residents had a hard time dealing with the tragedy. The suspect was born and raised in the community and everybody knew him. Today he lives in a structure near his parents' house. Neighbors and acquaintances told Ynetnews that in the last few days he seemed depressed. Danny, one of the neighbors said "a few days ago I met him at the synagogue and he seemed off, I asked what was wrong, but he wouldn’t say, but it was clear that he was going through something".

Chairman of the regional council Elad Levi paints a slightly different picture. "The writing wasn't on the wall; an hour before the tragic event, the father was attending a party in the community with songs and guitars and seemed very happy."

The letter sent out to Jewish Community of Columbus, Ohio, where the children lived.

Para Adumah recently born, Is Mashiach around the corner?

Yeshivah World prohibits Rolled Up Sleeves on Shabbos without Eiruv for Some but for Others it is permitted???

Rabbi Moishe Dovid Lebovits of KOF-K Kosher Supervision, wrote a column on  Halacha for THEYESHIVAWORLD and has the following question:

"Is it permitted to roll up your sleeves and go out where there is no Eiruv? "
I'm not kidding!
My question: Can you put your Peios around your ear on Shabbos where there is no eiruv? How about wearing a Talis to go home after you finished davening, where there is no eiruv?

Anyway, after reading the "big" Shaaleh, I'm confused.
Will comment after the ruling and footnotes!
 

 

Rolled up Sleeves on Shabbos

There is a basis to permit wearing a shirt with the sleeves rolled up in a place that does not have an eiruv. (40) A person who is rolling up his sleeves because he is not interested in wearing a long sleeve shirt may not walk outside with his sleeves rolled up on Shabbos because the sleeve is regarded by him as a burden and not part of the garment. However, one who would not wear a short sleeve shirt for reasons of modesty or the like, and rolls up the sleeves because he feels it is more proper to wear it that way, may walk outside like that on Shabbos.(41)

[40]Emes L’Yaakov 301:footnote 337, Be’er Moshe 3:62, Shemiras Shabbos K’hilchoso 18:4.

[41] Horav Yisroel Belsky Shlita who heard this directly from Horav Moshe Feinstein zt”l. Refer to Migdal Dovid 4:page 1014:528a, The Shabbos Home 1:page 166:footnote 15

My comments in PURPLE
There is a basis to permit wearing a shirt with the sleeves rolled up in a place that does not have an eiruv.  A person who is rolling up his sleeves because he is not interested in wearing a long sleeve shirt may not walk outside with his sleeves rolled up on Shabbos because the sleeve is regarded by him as a burden and not part of the garment.

How about a guy like me, who hates formal white short sleeve shirts, but I wear my long sleeved shirts and roll them up,it's not a burden, that's the way I wear my shirts, I can't wear that now?

 However, one who would not wear a short sleeve shirt for reasons of modesty or the like,

What does "the like" mean and imply? Does "the like" mean because I don't like the look of formal short sleeve shirts?

 and rolls up the sleeves because he feels it is more proper to wear it that way, may walk outside like that on Shabbos.
So now I can wear it that way? Didn't you start by saying I can't?
Mr. Levovitz.... stick to donuts!

"Monsey Community" Facebook Group Administrator acting like Putin!

There exists a Monsey community group on Facebook called "Neighborhood."

 

Yesterday, a discussion took place, which turned into a lively but completely civil debate. One of the administrators of the group decided that she didn't want the debate to continue, so she threatened to delete further comments and ban anyone who dares defy her.

In response to this bullying, MS. Gila Kind decided to create a new group called Neighborhood Too.

The  administrator retaliated,  banning everyone who has been added to the new group.
 

That's right, folks:
People found themselves banned from Neighborhood even though they had neither commented nor added themselves  to the new group.

This administrator has every right, I suppose, to do what she did. People are allowed to be intolerant. There is no law that says you must respect others' opinions and allow for civilized debate on the Facebook forums you rule over.
But for those who, like me, prefer more free, tolerant spaces to share your ideas, I encourage you to pack your bags and plan your exodus from Neighborhood.

*The administrator in question did not create the group, and she has previously removed the administrator's rights of the person who made her an administrator in the first place.

Stay tuned! Only in Monsey!
 

MIT Experts say that Humans learned how to speak from Monkeys and Birds

There is only one problem with this exciting conclusion: Monkeys and Birds don't speak, otherwise it's a great study!

This study wants us to believe that we learned to speak from a species that has yet to utter one intelligent syllable in thousands of years....
Find me one monkey in the entire universe that can say:
"Hiyeh Dooin Buddy" and I'll donate 2x Chai to MIT!

Oh the Parakeet ... forgot about that....
but doesn't a parakeet mimic? If the Parakeet never heard anyone speak, the parakeet won't say "boo", so how did the parakeet teach my grandfather to say "Shalom"???

 Who paid for this study, because I would like to get some of the stuff they're smoking.

Humans learned to talk to one another by copying birds and other primates sometime in the last 100,000 years, experts have said.

Linguists from MIT suggest that human communication could have evolved from older systems used by birds and primates.

Previous research has found that humans derive the melodic part of language from birds. However, the authors also say we evolved our pragmatic content-carrying part of speech from other primates.

Linguist Shigeru Miyagawa said: "How did human language arise? It's far enough in the past that we can't just go back and figure it out directly. The best we can do is come up with a theory that is broadly compatible with what we know about human language and other similar systems in nature."

It is thought human language is unique because it allows for infinite set of new meanings. However, after analysing some qualities of human language, the researchers found we share some of the finite qualities of other animals, suggesting our language is much more similar to other animals than previously believed.
"Yes, human language is unique, but if you take it apart in the right way, the two parts we identify are in fact of a finite state,"

Miyagawa said. "Those two components have antecedents in the animal world. According to our hypothesis, they came together uniquely in human language."
Published in Frontiers in Psychology, the researchers built on previous research that links birdsongs to human speech. They noted, however, that birds only have a limited number of melodies so the development of speech must incorporate another aspect from nature – specifically primates.
"You have these two pieces," said co-author Robert Berwick. "You put them together and something novel emerges. We can't go back with a time machine and see what happened, but we think that's the basic story we're seeing with language."

Yeshivaworld blog permits killing insects! Thank G-D!

THE YESHIVA WORLD has an Halachic Column, and in this column Rabbi Levovitz of the Chof K rules that you can kill the mosquito that's about to sting your toddler! Thanks alot, Rabbi!
In the footnotes, מראה מקומות, they quote Rabbi Belsky!

What is wrong with us? Are we that crazy?

Are you telling me that a guy saw his child about to be bitten by a wasp so he ran to call R' Belsky to get permission to kill the bee?

This question is not a shabbos question, no, it's about killing a spider on a typical Monday!

I want to know which meshiginer asked this Shealeh?

Notice that they write "Many poskim", in other words there are poskim who hold that it is prohibited!

Tell your exterminators to stay home. Let the cockroaches have a field day! Some poskim want them to rule your crib, guys!
Would you eat cholant in a shul where the Rabbi abides by these poskim?

My friends, mosquitoes and roaches are carriers of major diseases; bees can actually kill if you are allergic to the sting!

Read the following and laugh!

During the summer, insects often make their way into homes and bungalows where they can be very annoying. Many poskim say there is no issur to kill insects or flies (during the week) which are bothersome to a person. One is permitted to hang up sticky paper on the wall,[20] or to use an electric fly killer.[21]

Crazy Jews Still support Hillary Clinton even though she calls Israel an "Occupying Force"

Stupid Jews haven't learned their bloody history, they are still supporting that anti-Israel Hillary Clinton.

Israel was surrounded by Arabs wolves, about to devour her in 1967, and she won the war fair and square.  
And yet the crazy upside down world calls Israel Occupiers!

We have this tiny State, and liberal Jews sitting on their comfortable couches in the USA, continue to support the Arab loving Clintons' who want to cut huge chunks from our G-D given land!

I dare you to find Israel on this map!

Germany last week announced that they have grave concerns with the latest report that Israel issued 1,300 new tenders to the settlements. 
Can you believe that? 
Germany has "grave concerns?"
 Germany would love to see Israel Judenrein!

Remember when England in 1982, sent war ships half way around the world to the Falklands, to secure the Islands, because Argentina  invaded? 
 The Queen even put her son, Prince Andrew's, life in danger, and put him on one of those ships, so that G-D forbid they shouldn't lose a bunch of tiny worthless islands, yet England has the Chutzpah to call the settlements, occupied?

Leftist Jewish Bloggers (who hate Israel) will tell you, 
"well, there are Israelis in Israel that say, Israel is an Occupying Force." 
To that I say .....Bull Shi_ ! T
There are no Israels that feel that way ..... there are only Leftist Israeli Self-Hating Professors and self-hating Jewish news reporters like Haaretz that say that!

I spent a month in Israel just in the past year, and I spoke to the typical Israeli, and 100% of them, don't want to give anything back.

So these sick demented bloggers ask (as if concerned), "what do we do with the Arabs living in Israel?"
To that, I answer  "What do we do with the Arabs in America?" 
If they obey the law, fine, and if they don't we arrest them!

I would give the Arabs living in Israel the exact same rights they gave Jews living in their countries!

So this witch, Hillary writes a book called "Hard Choices" and accuses America's best friend of being occupiers!

Hillary as First Lady  kissing Mrs. Arafat 

A new book takes aim at Israel, angers pro-Israel community. 
Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton accuses Israel of being an occupying force in her new memoir Hard Choices and claims that the Jewish state denies “dignity and self determination” to Palestinians in the West Bank.

Clinton recalls being surprised by what she termed “life under occupation for the Palestinians,” according to the book.

Pro-Israel officials and insiders on Capitol Hill have called Clinton’s comments tone deaf and said that her claim that Israel is an occupying force reveals a bias against the Jewish state.

“When we left the city and visited Jericho, in the West Bank, I got my first glimpse of life under occupation for Palestinians, who were denied the dignity and self-determination that Americans take for granted,” Clinton writes.

Clinton’s comments demonstrate that she supports the Obama administration’s efforts to pressure and marginalize Israel, which current Secretary of State John Kerry recently accused of becoming an “apartheid state,” said one senior GOP Senate aide, who worked with Clinton when she was at the State Department.

“What we see here is the true Hillary Clinton, no longer muzzling herself for fear of reelection in New York or Senate confirmation fights—the woman who embraced Suha Arafat after smiling through anti-Semitic tirades,” said the former senior GOP Senate aide who for years battled Clinton’s State Department.

The source referred to a 1999 incident in which Clinton sat by smiling as the wife of former terrorist leader Yasser Arafat went on an anti-Israel tirade.

“This should put every American on notice that Hillary Clinton plans to continue Barack Obama’s failed Middle East policy that coddles terrorists and castigates democratic allies,” said the former official. “Clinton knows she lost to Obama in 2008 because she was outflanked by the left—she won’t make that mistake twice and she knows how much the left hates Israel.”

Clinton goes on to take aim at the Netanyahu government for not returning land to the Palestinians that she claims has been “occupied by Israel since 1967.”

Clinton is referring to territory seized by Israel in the 1967 Six Day War, in which Egypt, Jordan, and Syria attacked Israel from every side in a bid to destroy the Jewish state.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Clinton claims, is not serious about the peace process.

This claim has been echoed by senior State Department officials, several of whom have sought to blame Israel for the recent failure of peace talks.

“Netanyahu has been deeply skeptical of the Oslo framework of trading land for peace and a two-state solution that would give the Palestinians a country of their won in territory occupied by Israel since 1967,” Clinton writes.

One senior pro-Israel official who reviewed Clinton’s comments dubbed them as “troubling.”

“The quotes, which gives insight into Clinton’s thinking, are troubling,” the official told the Washington Free Beacon. “Most Americans, when they first experience the tiny distance separating average Israelis from enemies pledged to their destruction, immediately think of the difficult security situation that our allies have to negotiate. Not Clinton though.”

Clinton has come under fire from a pro-Israel group for not publicly condemning Kerry’s apartheid remarks about Israel, which were criticized by many Democrats.

Israel loses strong GOP Ally, Eric Cantor to Tea Party

House Majority Leader Eric Cantor was defeated by a little-known economics professor in Virginia's Republican primary, a stunning upset and major victory for the tea party.

Cantor is the second-most powerful member of the U.S. House and was seen by some as a possible successor to the House speaker.

His loss to Dave Brat, a political novice with little money marks a huge victory for the tea party movement, which supported Cantor just a few years ago.

Brat had been a thorn in Cantor's side on the campaign, casting the congressman as a Washington insider who isn't conservative enough. Last month, a feisty crowd of Brat supporters booed Cantor in front of his family at a local party convention.

His message apparently scored well with voters in the 7th District.

"There needs to be a change," said Joe Mullins, who voted in Chesterfield County Tuesday. The engineering company employee said he has friends who tried to arrange town hall meetings with Cantor, who declined their invitations.

Tiffs between the GOP's establishment and tea party factions have flared in Virginia since tea party favorite Ken Cuccinelli lost last year's gubernatorial race. Cantor supporters have met with stiff resistance in trying to wrest control of the state party away from tea party enthusiasts, including in the Cantor's home district.

Brat teaches at Randolph-Macon College, a small liberal arts school north of Richmond. He raised just more than $200,000 for his campaign, according to the most recent campaign finance reports
