Calling Those Who Work For A Living "Grubbe Balabatim" Won't Work Anymore Since 85% Those Leaving Yeshivos Become "Balabatim"!
A well known and respected voice in the world of at risk behavior is calling for a drastic change to the religious education system, observing that the one-size-fits-all approach taken by many yeshivos is failing a substantial number of students.
In an 18 minute video, Avi Fishoff of TWiSTED PARENTiNG noted that in the post-war years, the educational system focused on producing students who could reinvigorate the Torah world by building yeshivos and other communal institutions.
Having successfully created that infrastructure, Fishoff said that the time has come to prioritize maximizing the potential of each child instead of encouraging every student to become a long term learner, a goal that leaves many feeling like failures.
“Otherwise we will have a majority of our children leaving the yeshiva world feeling like they are not a success, the hatzlacha that they were meant to be, which is false, and the result of that can be disastrous,” said Fishoff.
Drawing on his own educational career in a highly regarded yeshiva, Fishoff recalled that he was well aware as a child that he was not a top student and that the school staff looked down on him because of his performance. The idea of every student being able to learn for 10 to 12 hours every day is as unrealistic as expecting graduate to become a lawyer, said Fishoff.
“People who go to work to support themselves should not feel bad that that’s ‘nebuch’ the life that they have,” said Fishoff. “Like in the yeshiva where I grew up they said ‘grubbe balabatim,’ grubbe balabatim they called us. 85 percent of those who graduated, maybe more, ended up being balabatim and we all felt that we are not ehrliche yidden.”\

Moshe Ilovitz, 37, of Mevo Modi’im, MISSING!!
Moshe Ilovitz, 37, of Mevo Modi’im, is still missing. He was last seen at the ttziyun of the Rashbi on Friday night before Lag B’Omer. Officials now fear for his life.
His family is appealing to the public to aid in the search for Moshe, who disappeared two weeks ago. The Israel Dog Unit has been running a search with specially trained SAR dogs together with police, family and friends.
Moshe’s wife and five children have suffered an additional blow, after their home and all of their belongings were destroyed in the recent fire that destroyed dozens of homes in the Moshav.
The IDU will be conducting a day of searching on Sunday June 2 beginning at 6:00 AM, a last push to try and find Moshe.
The family is urging anyone who might have seen him to call the command center at 054-487-6709, and to please forward the flyer with his picture anywhere possible.
Anyone wishing to join the search can do so by calling
054-487-6709.
The command center Sunday will be located in the field adjacent to the Meron Supermarket.
The family calls on the tzibur to continue being mispallel for Moshe Eliezer ben Pearl Malkah Henny. A special fundraising effort is underway to assist the family.
Apple Is Shutting Down iTunes
Apple is phasing out its content download and streaming service, Bloomberg reports. CEO Tim Cook will unveil a spread of new features geared to move the company’s focus away from the iPhone starting Monday at the tech giant’s Worldwide Developers Conference.
One of these changes is getting rid of iTunes, which has served since 2001 as the home for users’ music, television and podcast libraries. Going forward, three new desktop apps will be unveiled — Music, TV and Podcasts — to house and manage the data. This will match the format already used on iPhones and iPads.

Rabbi Yisrael Ariel, the Founder of the Temple Institute arrived Sunday morning at the Temple Mount and told the pilgrims about his experiences during the liberation of Jerusalem and the liberation of the Western Wall and the Temple Mount in the Six Day War.
Rabbi Ariel, who was a reserve soldier in the Paratroopers Brigade and fought for the liberation of Jerusalem in the Six-Day War, said that he saw the battle on the Temple Mount:
"Here were cannons, mortars and piles of shells."
He told of the soldiers who arrived at the Temple Mount for the first time 52 years ago, "followed by Rabbi Tzvi Yehuda Kook and the Nazir on a jeep of the Jordanian army that was here."
"We saw the Israeli flag hoisted at the top of the Dome of the Rock," testified Rabbi Ariel, "and then I saw about two thousand soldiers of the Jordanian Legion raising their hands against three or four IDF soldiers."
Hundreds of Jews ascended the Temple Mount this morning to mark the anniversary of the liberation of Jerusalem Sunday.
The headquarters of the various Temple Mount organizations said that the police had fulfilled their obligation to allow Jews to ascend the Temple Mount and to remove the Arab rioters in order to allow Jews to ascend as per routine.
Police said that during the morning hours, "riots broke out on the Temple Mount, including stone throwing, throwing of chairs and various objects, following which the commander of the Jerusalem district, Major General Doron Yedid, ordered the police to enter the Temple Mount and deal with the rioters!

What Gedoiei Hador Thought Of ........"Yom Yerushalayim"
There are Gedoilim whose opinions are constantly quoted by Yeshivishe Litvaks who embrace the anti-Zionist SHIT'ah since it suits them better not to join the army and defend their families; ... some of those Gedoilim quoted by them are of the bizarre and outrageous opinion that the open miracles we all witnessed during the 6 day war ....were performed by Satan!
But thankfully, there are Gedoilim who constitute the silent majority and who are of the opinion that "Yom Yerushalyim" is a Yom Tov that should be embraced and celebrated and some even are of the opinion that one should recite Hallel with a bracha!
I compiled a sampling of those Gedoilim!
* Note:
According to Harav Avadia Yosef, Harav Yitzchok Kaduri and Harav Ben-Zion Abba Shaul, one shouldn't say Tachanun on Yom Yershalyim
see: הרב יהודה ברכה, שו"ת ברכת יהודה, ח"ד סימן טו'
Note that all the Gedoilim mention the great "miracles" on that day ....
From the Tzitz Eliezer, Harav Eliezer Waldenberg:
Notice: That the Tzitz Eliezer uses the term
"על הגואלה ועל התמורה" the Title of the Satmar Rebbe's Sefer that claims that all the miracles were from Satan .... but the Tzitz Eliezer uses those very words to thank Hashem for the miracles!
From Reb Aryeh Levin:
From Reb Chaim Shmulevitz , RY Mir
From Harav Yechezkel Abramski
From R' Shlomo Zalman Auerbach
From Harav Yechezkel Levenstein RY Ponovitz
From Harav Yaakov Bezalel Zolti Rav of Yerushalayim

Satmar Rebbe's Nazi ID Card .... The "Beirach Moshe"
This is what the Nazis YM"S did ..... they took away the dignity of Rabbanim and regular people!
Mayor of Londonistan Calls Trump "Fascist"
The mayor of London, the Muslim Sadiq Khan, has compared the language used by Donald Trump to rally his supporters to that of “the fascists of the 20th century” in an explosive intervention before the US president’s state visit to London that begins on Monday.
Writing in the Observer, the radical Muslim,Khan, condemned the red-carpet treatment being afforded to Trump who, with his wife Melania, will be a guest of the Queen during his three-day stay, which is expected to provoke massive protests in the capital on Tuesday.
Khan said: “President Donald Trump is just one of the most egregious examples of a growing global threat. The far right is on the rise around the world, threatening our hard-won rights and freedoms and the values that have defined our liberal, democratic societies for more than 70 years.
