Jews must settle every inch of Israel .... "We are here to stay"

Israel in red!

Maj. Gen. Gadi Shamni, a former head of the IDF Central Command, told Army Radio on Sunday that hiking in Judea and Samaria is unsafe. 

His statement ignored the reality in which we live, as dangers also lurk in Jerusalem, Tel Aviv and the Galilee. Palestinian terrorists do not recognize the 1967 borders. They and their leaders, all disciples of Haj Amin al-Husseini and Yasser Arafat, have one clear goal -- to destroy the Zionist entity.

Only the naive among us still believe the Palestinians are willing to accept the existence of a Jewish state. We are fated to live by the sword, until a time comes when our enemies internalize our determination to defend our homes and realize that their attempts to intimidate us are futile. The Jews have come home to stay. 

We are not Crusaders in our historic homeland.

The citizens of Israel expect the Israel Defense Forces and other security forces to quickly move to do whatever is necessary to stop what appears to be a new Palestinian terror wave. 

Successful attacks encourage other terrorists to act. During our fasting days, we Jews do soul-searching. During their fasting days, on the other hand, our neighbors settle scores. In what has become a ritual, the days of the Ramadan fast see an increase in bloodshed, due to an environment of hatred and incitement.

The explanation that these attacks are carried out by "lone wolves" is baseless. 

It removes the burden of responsibility from the Palestinian religious and political leaders who promote the murder of Jews. And the claim that Palestinian terror stems from oppression is patently false. Older Israelis remember the terrorist attacks carried out against us before Israel took control of Judea and Samaria.

Palestinian terrorists have three main aims -- to kill Jews, to make life difficult for Israelis and to gain dignified status for themselves in their violent society. 

The best answer to this terrorism is for us to strengthen our grip on our homeland. Only if we settle every corner of our land will the terrorists realize that force will achieve nothing for them. 

Those who seek peace will find an outstretched hand from us. And those who seek war against us will be defeated.

Max Blumenthal son of Sydney Blumenthal is a self hating Jew!

Mad Max

While US leaders are still firmly pro-Israel, many of their children are not. 

Sidney Blumenthal, for instance, was an advisor to President Clinton, and a "friend" of Israel, yet his son, Max Blumenthal, has become a prominent activist on campuses "against Israel's very existence." 

 "Mad Max" a self-hating Jew has written books questioning Israel's sovereignty.... 

Vishnitzer Rebbe: There is Yiddishkheit Around the World In The Zechus Of The Lubavitcher Rebbe

Speaking to thousands of chassidim on Shabbos Parshas Korach, the Vishnitzer Rebbe discussed his relationship with the Lubavitcher Rebbe ZT”L. 

“In his merit there is Yiddishkheit around the world” stated the rebbe. 

The Chabad kehilla and Jews around the world on Shabbos marked the 21st yahrzeit of the rebbe, 3 Tammuz. Tens of thousands of mispallalim have already visited the ohel.

During his divrei torah on the Friday night tisch, the rebbe spoke of the uniqueness of the late rebbe, sharing details of his first visit with the rebbe in Teves 5744, 31 years ago. 

The late rebbe spoke with the Vishnitzer and his entourage for 20 minutes and then the two rebbe met alone for over an hour.

He explained that the Lubavitcher Rebbe asked him to deliver a message to his father, the Yeshuos Moshe of Vishnitz ZT”L, who at the time was among the leaders of the Moetzas Gedolei Torah of Agudas Yisrael. He did not detail the message.

He spoke of the Rebbe’s koach and how he literally brought Yiddishkheit to all corners of the world, bringing countless numbers of Yidden back to a live of Torah observance.

The Vishnitzer Rebbe also highlighted the simplicity of the rebbe and his lifestyle and the modesty in which he lived and conducted himself, sacrificing everything for the Klall.

Satmar Grandchild in the IDF, Video

Ari Fuld and IDF special forces soldier (and grandson of the Satmar Rebbe) Chaim Meisels.

One Lone soldier's journey from the anti-Zionist Satmar enclave in Borough Park to an elite IDF combat unit...

The Jews of Lawrence-Cedarhurst NY are no strangers when it comes to IDF support. There are tens of “Lone soldiers” who are currently serving in the IDF from that area. That is why it was no surprise that the Young Israel of Lawrence-Cedarhurst made a very generous donation and asked Standing Together to help a specific unit in which one of their congregants has a nephew serving.

We made contact with the officer of the elite Egoz unit and after a month of preparations we scheduled a day to meet them on base and give them the gear that was sponsored by YILC.

As we drove on to the base it was hard not to notice the smiles on the soldiers’ faces.

The Egoz unit is a “Sayeret”(Elite) unit and they have now been on base for over 3 weeks in an intense training course. Their phones have been confiscated and I cannot tell you details of their training regimen, but I can tell you that they have been completely cut off from the outside world and they are working hard, VERY HARD!

As we unloaded the water packs, dry-fit clothing, Leatherman utility tools and personalized gear backpacks to give out to the soldiers, we could hear the bursting excitement from the soldiers.

“Oh my God! WOW! Where is this from? Are you serious?! YEEESSHHH! (‘Yeah baby’ in Hebrew).”

The truth is, if the day would have ended right there, it would have been a perfect day, but nothing prepared me for what happened next!

I asked the guys if there is someone who speaks English as we are looking for someone to send a video message back to the Young Israel of Lawrence-Cedarhurst. They all immediately pointed to a specific Kipah wearing soldier and as I walked over to introduce myself he stood up to shake my hand and say thank you.

I have met many Lone soldiers and the first thing any respectable Jew does is play Jewish geography, so I asked him where he is from.

When he answered Borough Park, I felt my face shift in wonder as I said, “Did you say Borough Park?!”

He gently smiled and repeated it again, Borough Park.

The prominent Ultra-Orthodox community in Borough Park, NY does not have many kids drafting into the IDF, so my curiosity was at its apex.

I asked the soldier for his name and when he responded, Chaim Meisels, my knees buckled.

Chaim Meisels is no ordinary Lone soldier. Chaim Meisels is the grandson of the Satmar Rebbe!

(I will pause here a second for those of you who just fell off your chair or spilled your drink.)

You read correctly, Chaim Meisels is the grandson of the Berach Moshe, better known as the Satmar Rebbe.

What is he doing in Sayeret Egoz?

I asked the question and before I knew it, I was in a deep discussion with this very special Lone soldier.

One can understand if Chaim would have been angry and bitter towards Satmar as they completely shut him out since he left, but that is simply not the case.

As much as I tried not to speak about politics and hashkafa, it is a little difficult when speaking to the Satmar Rebbe’s grandson who happens to also be wearing an IDF uniform and serving in one of the IDF’s most elite units.

No matter how many times I asked about his family and Satmar, Chaim did not have a single negative word to say about anyone.

“I love my parents dearly and have only love and respect for them.” That is the way Chaim answered my question about his family’s reaction to his decision to join the IDF.

It’s not that I was looking for something negative to report, I just wanted to understand the hardships Chaim had to go to to get to where he is now. No matter how many questions I asked, Chaim had only positive things to say.

Even when I inquired about his recent trip to the States for his brothers wedding, Chaim refused to say anything negative.

I knew from a friend in the Satmar community that when Chaim arrived dressed in a bekeshe and all, the community did not allow him into the hall for his own brother’s wedding.

Chaim smiled and said, “In the end my parents let me in and it was a happy and beautiful Chassene (wedding).”

I cannot imagine the amount of personal strength and courage needed to do what Chaim did and I do not really know how the Satmar community is reacting. What I do know is that while supplying Chaim and his unit with gear, I felt a tremendous feeling of unity.

A young IDF soldier by the name of Chaim Meisels taught me, in his modest and Menshlechkite way, that a love for Am Yisrael and a positive attitude is more powerful than anything else.

Chareidim freaking out because a lady will replace Alexander Hamilton on the 10.00 bill

Police are clearing lower Manhattan for a huge rally against the not-tznisdik proposal to put a picture of a lady on the $10.00 bill.

Chareidim have already torn all pictures of women from their respective newspapers and magazines. Some even remove the lady's name , and there is talk of removing all references to women from the entire Torah, especially the part where Yaakov kissed Ruchel!

So this is a huge setback for them... they don't even want to talk about the possibility of Hillary Clinton becoming President .....

Rabbonim are trying to convince the Lakewood Roshei Yeshivas to close the Lakewood Yeshivah so they can attend this mass protest, since it is an inyan of "Yehereg V'al Yaavor"
 In a show of achdus, both Bobover Rebbes will attend. Both Satmar Rebbes  will also attend providing that they burn the Israeli flag for good measure.

The U.S. Treasury announced on Wednesday that beginning in 2020, a woman’s face will replace Alexander Hamilton on the $10 bill.

Treasury Secretary Jack Lew said he’s looking for public input on which female historical figure should become the first to appear on U.S. paper currency for the first time in 119 years.

Hamilton will remain either on the bill’s reverse side or in a separate series while the 1.9 billion $10 bills in circulation are likely to last another 10 years.

No woman has appeared on a new currency since Martha Washington on a $1 silver note until 1896. Pocahontas was the first female, appearing on the $20 note beginning in 1865. 

New Video Exposes Provocation Leading Up To IDF Soldiers Beating Palestinian Man

Aha! This is what I wrote before... Reuters (probably funded by Satmar gypsies) originally showed a half-assed video that only shows the soldiers beating the hell out of the Palestinian....'
but now we have the full video and a completely different story!
No apology from Reuters!
Notice the photo below was taken by a Mohamad for Reuters!

 A new video posted Tuesday exposed the full scope of events, including provocations, leading up to an incident on Friday in which four soldiers struck and verbally assaulted a Palestinian man during a violent disturbance in the village of Jalazun.

The unsettling video shows individuals, as well as those with press vests, repeatedly approaching the group of Kfir Brigade soldiers even after being repeatedly told to leave. Swarms of press photographers followed the soldiers constantly, waiting to catch the perfect moment, as firebombs are hurled at the soldiers.

The 10-minute-long video, posted by a group calling itself the International Solidarity Movement, shows this back-and-forth of provocations which culminated in a man being beaten. The much shorter video circulated by Palestinian media shortly after the incident, showed only the beating itself, without context.

An army investigation concluded on Sunday said that the situation occurred in the course of a lengthy violent disturbance that lasted for several hours, during which rioters hurled firebombs and large rocks at soldiers. A platoon commander was injured by a rock thrown at his face and suffered a suspected eye socket bone fracture.

The Palestinian man seen in the video approached the soldiers and attempted to create a provocation, the investigation found. “After ignoring calls by soldiers to stop, and grabbing the weapon of one of the commanders, commanders decided to utilize force to arrest him,” the army said.

The IDF tried and punished the soldiersinvolved. Kfir infantry brigade commander Col. Asher Ben Lulu concluded that the decision to arrest the man was correct, but the manner in which the arrest was carried out was wrong. The brigade commander condemned the way in which one of the solders spoke to the man, saying it contravened IDF values and the army’s expectations of conduct by soldiers.

Two soldiers exercised disproportionate force during the arrest, Ben Lulu said. A total of four soldiers were tried for the incident. The company commander received a verbal rebuke, a soldier seen cursing the man was confined by his battalion commander to base for 30 days. The battalion commander sentenced two soldiers found to have used disproportionate force to a suspended sentence of 28 days in army prison.

Rabbi Yair Hoffman throws the Har Habayis under the bus!

Rabbi Yair Hoffman became a posik writing for the 5 "Clowns" Times. He seems to be a "Yodia Sefer" and actually has some interesting "Teshuvois".
For example,  he once paskened that Goldfish are not kosher, even though they clearly have scales and fins!
But in order to fit in with the Yesivishe Crowd, ..... R' Hoffman  has to throw them a bone once in awhile, otherwise he would be branded a "Zionist" Chas Ve'sholem, or even worse, an "Am Haaretz."
So what better way to find favor with the "big beards" than to give the entire Har Ha'bayis, that cost so much Jewish blood, to the Arab savages, that would make all the Litvishe "gedoilim" happy, and R" Yair could now be counted as one of "them!" 

The great poisek Morah Harav Hagoen HaTzaddik Hoffman (Av Bais Din d"kock" 5 Clowns) now suggests that the OU statement supporting the campaign of the Temple Institute Organization to give equal freedom of prayer and visitation rights to all religions including Jews...... be "rescinded." 

Personally, I laud the courages statement of the OU. 
Finally an organization who doesn't take Litvaks as Torah Me'sinai! An organization that will not allow Arabs to tell Jews in Eretz Yisroel what to do and where to daven!

I am not going to go into the halacha whether one is allowed to go on the Har Ha'bayis..... that was tackled by great gedoilim all the way back to the times of the Geonim.... with many great poiskim ruling that one is allowed to walk on the Har Habayis..
but if there are Frum Jews who follow their "Daas Torah" and put their lives literally on the line... by going to the Har Ha'bais so that the Arabs don't completely control our Holy Makom Ha'Mikdash, and fight every single day to be there, so that the Israelis don't G-D forbid relinquish their control, why is  Hoffman the "Tuchis Leker" denouncing the statement of the OU supporting The Temple Institute Organization .... all because he wants to  curry favor with the Litvishe Roshei Yeshiva?

 Because Yair wants the  Roshei Yeshivah and the Litvishe Chachumim to give him the proper respect, he is prepared to let the Arabs have the Bais Ha'mikdash!

So here is an introduction to his "teshuvah" in referece to the Temple Mount!


"Yesterday, the Orthodox Union released a statement supporting the campaign of the Temple Institute Organization in their demands of the Knesset regarding the Temple Mount. The Temple Institute has been demanding equal freedom of prayer and visitation rights for Jewish visitors at the Temple Mount.
While the sentiment that lies behind the OU statement is certainly laudable, the halachic position taken by the organization’s leadership lies in stark contrast to the position of the great Poskim of the generation, both who are still living and those who have passed on. The OU’s statement follows a similar statement released by the RCA approximately one year ago.
With due respect, it is this author’s opinion that the OU statement should be rescinded. The Temple Institute’s platform, which certainly l’shaim shamayim, is a position that is against what most of Poskim, Roshei Yeshiva and Gedolim hold.
What follows is a Halachic analysis of why we should not, at this point, be praying on Har HaBayis. It is written with due respect for the Rabbis who feel that it is permitted to go up on Har HaBayis. Nonetheless, we cannot allow our ahavah for Eretz Yisroel obscure our thinking. The greatest of our Gedolim have forbidden treading upon Har HaBayis and we must endeavor to understand the reasoning behind it."

Lufthansa Discriminates Against Israel on Baggage policy

This German airline, the airline that is preferred by the Satmar  Rabbis when they travel to the Zionist State...(they won't,G-D forbid travel on El Al) is discriminating against anyone traveling to Israel, allowing only one free bag while passengers flying to Arab countries are allowed 2 free bags!

Here is a letter to the airline 

Ms. Linda Stiene

Customer Relations North America

Lufthansa German Airlines

1640 Hempstead Turnpike

East Meadow, NY 11554

Dear Ms. Stiene:

We received your response to our inquiry about why Lufthansa is treating travelers to and from the Jewish State of Israel differently and more harshly than travelers to and from the Arab/Muslim countries in the Middle East. Lufthansa permits passengers to bring two bags free of charge to and from every country in the Middle East – except the Jewish State of Israel.

You provided no explanation for this policy. Your letter referred vaguely to baggage allowances that are “based on economic and commercial factors,” but you offered no information about how these factors identically affect every Arab/Muslim country in the Middle East, except the Jewish State of Israel.

You claim that the baggage allowance policy for passengers flying to and from the Jewish State of Israel “is not discriminatory.” Yet on its face, it is discriminatory, because the Jewish State of Israel alone is being singled out and subjected to harsher treatment than any Arab/Muslim country in the Middle East.

We urge you to immediately revise this policy and make it crystal clear – in a letter to us and in a notice posted on the Lufthansa website – that passengers flying to and from Israel will now be afforded at least the same free baggage allowance that they are permitted when flying to any other country in the Middle East. If the baggage policy is not so revised, then we will have no choice but to inform the public, the media, the U.S. Congress, and the U.S. Presidential candidates that Lufthansa – a German airline that should be especially sensitive to discriminating against Jews and the Jewish State – is singling out Israel for different and harsher treatment. We know that they, like us, will have zero tolerance for Lufthansa’s discriminatory practice against the Jewish State of Israel.

Please let us hear from you no later than Tuesday, June 23, 2015. Thank you.

Very truly yours,

Israel’s Reform Jews Call For Removal Of Religious Affairs Minister Over ‘Offensive’ Comment

The Reform Jews never recognized Israel, I think that the Vatican recognized Israel before they did...
 Few Reform Rabbis side with Israel on any issue, they are by in large  a leftist anti-zionist  group.
In a lot of respects they are just like Satmar... they both hate Israel, and both are anti-Zionist.
So I find it amusing to see that they want to remove David Azulay, from his position as Minister of Religious Affairs, because he uttered the absolute truth, when he called the 
Reform movement a “disaster for the nation," today!

Leaders of Reform Jewry in Israel are demanding the removal of the new minister of religious affairs David Azoulay after he called the Reform movement a “disaster for the nation” Wednesday.

Azoulay, a member of the Orthodox Mizrahi Shas party, made his comment in a meeting with Justice Minister Ayelet Shaked regarding the government’s position on Women of the Wall, the feminist prayer group that makes monthly meetings at the Western Wall, according to Haaretz (http://bit.ly/1CdXhE9 ).

Azoulay reportedly referred to group members as “provocateurs” for defying Orthodox customs.

Women of the Wall issued a statement saying that expect Justice Minister Ayelet Shaked not to take part in discriminatory regulations.

Reform Jewry reps sent a letter to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu asking that he remove himself publicly from the comments.

Azoulay replaced Naftali Bennett as religious affairs minister.

Chevra Kadisha gangsters destroy a Women's kever on Har Hazeisim

The following is a bizarre story from Kikar Shabbos and was translated into English!
I don't know what really happened, since I never heard about this lady and  the son claims that thousands attended her Levayeh, but I speak to people in Yerushalyim and they never heard of her before either. 
Also the accolades on the Metzeivah don't fit in with the other Metzeivos, the other ones surrounding this Metzeivah are far more humble...
So I really don't know the truth.... but I do know that the Chevra Kadishah in Israel are by in large controlled by the Chassidishe Yerushlaimer Mafia..


Unfortunately, too often there are reports of damage to matzeivos in Har HaZeisim, by area Arab residents. 

In this case the damage to the matzeivah in the Har HaZeisim Cemetery was ordered by the Prushim Chevra Kadisha

Mrs. Leah Fisch died 20 years ago and thousands took part in the levaya to pay their last respects to the special woman who was known as one of the righteous women of Yerushalayim.

A few short years after she was buried the family noticed the matzeivah did not cover the kever as it should. 

Her son Dovid built a special addition including a place to light candles, thereby solving the problem of an area being exposed.

Dovid spoke with Kikar Shabbos News, explaining “My mother died 20 years ago and 5 years later the then-head of the chevra kadisha told me my mother was very tall, more so than the average person, and extended past the standard matzeivah area and he asked me to construct something as an addition to entirely cover the area to avoid any disgrace to my mother and this is just what I did”.

Dovid adds “Years passed and they did not speak to us about this. A year ago the son of the then-head of the chevra kadisha ran into me, and he told me ‘if not for my father I would destroy the matzeivah’ and a short time letter is was destroyed.

I rebuilt it. 

A few months ago the story became complicated. They began destroying the kever and removed the chairs placed nearby. We first believed it was the work of Arabs but we eventually learned the chevra kadisha was responsible”.

He continues to explain that despite the intervention of Yehuda Meshi-Zahav, who tried negotiating between Dovid and the chevra kadisha, the chevra kadisha during the night destroyed the entire matzeivah. He explains this time the damage was beyond repair and not only the matzeivah, but the actual kever too.

The son arrived the following day armed with a camera to document what had occurred. When an Arab worker was questioned regarding the materials that were removed, he told them “I sold the stuff” and then immediately changed his statement to “I placed it all in genizah”.

The worker explained that he was instructed to be break the matzeivah. 

The Arab worker explained to Dovid he was given a generator by his supervisor and they worked during the night. 

When asked who this person is the worker responded it was one of the directors of the chevra kadisha.

Dovid headed to the chevra’s office and broke down in tears over what was done to his mother’s kever. 

They told him to submit new plans to re-build ,which he submitted but one of the officials rejected it. 

Dovid adds they then had the nerve to suggest exhuming his mother’s remains to bury her elsewhere. They even offered to arrange this with a rav who would permit moving the remains.

Dovid was pained to the core, explaining his mother was a holy person and thousands attended the levaya yet they come like thieves in the night and destroy her kever.

Responding to the report, Zaka CEO Yehuda Meshi-Zahav explains that just this week the Knesset Interior Committee held a session to address the damage to kevarim from local Arabs and here the damage is from the chevra kadisha. 

He added in this case the chevra actually paid an Arab employee to destroy a kever without regard for kovod hameis. 

Meshi-Zahav concludes “Even if there are problems with the size of the matzeivah why destroy the actual kever. Who permits such action? How did your hands commit such an act?”

Chevra kadisha official Yitzchak Glaubstein told Kikar Shabbos “We have a psak halacha from Rav Moshe Brandsdorfer to destroy the matzeivah for it is gezel from the rabim”.
