Satmar Rebbe's Favorite Country .. IRAN ... Breached the 2015 Nuclear Deal's Stockpile Limit
א' קרח כ"ז סיון תשע"ט
The Holy Rebbe of Satmar, R Aron Teitelbaum who begged US Congressmen to back the Iran Deal .... must be very happy with his work fighting the State of Israel ..... since his favorite country, Iran is very close to having complete Nuclear capabilities...
In addition, Iran just threatened Israel again ... stating that Israel will be totally annihilated, Chas Ve'Shalom if the US should attack Iran!
IRan has breached the limit of its enriched uranium stockpile set in a 2015 deal with major powers, two sources told Reuters on Monday, defying a warning by European co-signatories to stick to the deal despite U.S. sanctions.
“As we announced when we said our steps would continue, the stockpile has passed 300 kg,” one of the sources said.

Lo Tishkach!
The Rebbe also made the bizarre statement
"That it is prohibited to learn Torah in Israel"
Mental Health of Three Generations Has Been Harmed by the Holocaust
The physical effects of the Holocaust are still present in the brains of survivors’ grandchildren, research suggests.
The mental health of at least three generations of the same families was potentially damaged, say scientists, suggesting that the environment that one lives in can affect your offspring’s genes.
The study presented at a meeting of the European Academy of Neurology in Oslo was based on 56 people aged 79 and 80, half of whom survived the Holocaust.
It found that survivors had significantly less grey matter, or neurons, in areas of the brain responsible for stress response, memory, motivation, emotion, learning and behaviour.
Lead author Professor Ivan Rektor, from Masaryk University, Czech Republic, said: ‘Early results show this is also the case in children of survivors, too.’
The findings may lead to descendants being offered therapy to help them cope with the emotional legacy of the genocide, Professor Rektor added.
Further research will identify markers of stress resilience and post-traumatic growth and will determine whether transmission to offspring is based on behavioural, psychological or genetic factors.

Litvak Who Went From Shul to Shul To Tear Up The Sefarim "Yalkut Yoisef" Caught Red Handed
Amongst us frum Jews ... this is nothing knew .... the Rambam's Seforim were burned.... not by the goyim but by "Frum Jews."
The Seforim of the Ramchal were destroyed and he was chased out of town by "Frum" Jews! etc etc ....
And now the Seforim of Harav Yosef Yitzchok ...
ילקוט יוסף
Shuls all over put cameras in to see who was doing it ...
it didn't take long and they found the culprit ...
A Litvak .... .....
Hey forget about the prohibition of destroying seforim containing Torah ...
What about "Gezilah" .... stealing????
So now if you are a Litvak not only do you stop people from getting to work by protesting about nothing .....
Now you are destroying property of others ....
The Litvaks read the words of the Aseres Hadibrois that states:
לא תגנוב
as
לו תגנוב
They are "Talmeidei Chachomin" and they read the Kree (meaning how it is read) not the Ksiv (how it's written) ...
They read that it's a "Mitzvah to Steal" if I don't agree with what's written in those Sefarim!

Halacha stipulates that since the Bais Ha'Mikdash was destroyed, nothing could be done with previously consecrated fruits. Such fruit must remain untouched and left to rot, as everyone is forbidden to benefit from the fruit.

Does The Satmar Rebbe Have a "Chelik in Olam Habah?
I am getting a kick out of this .... this is got to be one of the funniest "shaalois" I heard in a long time....
There is a very popular Torah newsletter in Israel that is called
"Oilam Katan" "Small World" ........
On the very front cover they have a series of questions and answers (shaalois Uh"teshuvois) in halacha and hashkafah ....
Someone writes in a question and Harav Shlomo Aviner is usually the one answering ....
For those who don't know, Harav Shlomo Aviner wrote a Sefer many years ago in response to the Satmar Rebbe, R' Yoel Teitelbaum's sefer "Al Hagilah Ve'al Hatmurah ...
The Satmar Rebbe panicked after the 6 day war in 1967 ... afraid that he would be losing his whole anti-Zionist agenda with his own Chassidim, because of the great miracles that happened during the 1967 war, which brought on an unprecedented wave of Baalei-Tesuvah ... who saw with their very own eyes, miracles.....
And so the Rebbe responded with a little book challenging the hundreds and thousands of eye-witness accounts of these miracles and basically wrote that the "miracles" were acts of the Satan which he called the "Sitra Achra."
As far as the unprecedented mass movement of Baalei Teshuvah, he dismissed it and wrote that "Shabsai Tzvi also produced a mass Baalei Teshuvah movement!"
In response, Rabbi Shlomo Aviner wrote a very scholarly thick Sefer called "Aleh Naaleh" עלה נעלה that totally eviscerated the entire premise of "Al Hagulah Ve'Al Ha"Temurah.," and R' Aviner did it with the greatest respect.

Question:
"Does the Admar from Satmar have a Cheilik in Olam Habah Because he has separated himself (with his ideas) from the rest of the Jewish nation?"
Translated Loosely: "Does the Satmar Rebbe have a portion in the World to Come since his ideas are different from the ideas of the frum world.?"
Answer From Harav Aviner:
"He Absolutely has a Chielik in Olam Habbah ..... and You have to do Tesuvah for even asking such a question!!! "
Very Soon You Will Be Able To be "Oleh Regel" On The Exact Same Steps As They did 2,000 Years Ago
In 2004, a sewage pipe burst in the middle of the neighborhood of Silwan in southeast Jerusalem.
The municipality sent in a crew of construction workers to fix the leak, and as is the case in Jerusalem and especially in neighborhoods adjacent to the Old City, they were accompanied by a team of archeologists.
As the repairs progressed, the construction workers stumbled upon some long and wide stairs a few dozen meters from where the Shiloah – the ancient pool Jewish pilgrims would dip in before beginning the religious ascent to the Temple, until its destruction in 70 CE – was believed to have once stood. The steps were just like the ones that lead to the Hulda Gates, a set of now blocked entrances along the Temple Mount’s Southern Wall.

Discovery of the Shiloah Pool led to another monumental find – the central water drainage channel that had served ancient Jerusalem. This channel is the tunnel that visitors to the City of David – known as Ir David – get to walk through today, starting at the bottom of the Shiloah and emerging about 45 minutes later next to the Western Wall.
As is often the case with archeology, though, the first discovery or two are just the beginning. That is how a few weeks ago I found myself on an exclusive tour of an ancient road dug out beneath the village of Silwan and above the now well-known water channel (also the place where Jewish rebels made a final stand against the Roman invaders).

The ancient street is referred to as “Pilgrimage Road,” since archeologists are convinced that this is the path millions of Jews took three times a year when performing the commandment of aliyah l’regel – going up to the holy city of Jerusalem to bring sacrifices to God during Judaism’s three key holidays, Passover, Shavuot and Sukkot.
AMUKA - A LEGEND FOR People Needing A Shidduch
This Shabbos, 26th of Sivan (June 29) is the 'yahrzeit' (anniversary of death) of Rabbi Yonatan Ben Uziel. For many Jews, desperate to get married, this is the date they have been waiting for.
At Amuka, ceremonies will be taking place in four shifts, for 24 hours non-stop, at a special Tikkun (all-night Torah study) known as "the 160 Silver Coins Tikkun."
You would need a very large map of Israel to show Amuka. There is no settlement there, no village. But you will be able to find it if you believe in miracles. For Amuka is said to be the source of many miracles, and the reason that Orthodox Jews travel from all across the world to come here.
To reach this spot, you must circumvent the beautiful city of Safed in the Galilee, in the north of Israel, and find the road that leads to Rosh Pina. Then take the opposite direction along a narrow road, twisting and turning through fragrant pine forests.
Arrows thoughtfully provided by believers will lead you towards the mountain summit. There you will come upon a deep valley and see a lonely grave at the bottom. You have found Amuka.
It is the grave of Rabbi Yonatan Ben Uziel, born in the 1st century BCE, Rabbi Hillel's most outstanding pupil. He translated the prophets into Aramaic, and it is said that a Heavenly Voice was heard demanding to know who it was who had revealed His mysteries to man. Rabbi Jonathan answered that he had done so "not for the sake of personal honor, but in order that disputes shall not multiply in Israel."
And that's not all. It is said that the words of Torah were so sweet on the lips of Rabbi Jonathan, that bands of angels gathered overhead to listen. How this learned man came to occupy a revered place in the minds and hearts of so many Orthodox Jews, so
that his gravesite would be the destination of hundreds of pilgrimages, is a story in itself.

The Ancient City of BEIT SHEMESH
If you stick a spade in the ground anywhere in Israel, there’s a good chance that you will uncover some ancient artifact.
Israel, which in its long history has been overrun by dozens of foreign armies, is a prime place for such discoveries, each group having left behind some relic that has remained buried beneath the sands of time.
But in revealing these ancients relics, the questions arises as to what you are going to do with them. Typically, a cluster of government organizations will descend on the location to decide whether what you have uncovered is worthy of preservation. If it is, then the question arises as to how it is to be preserved. Will it stay in the place where it was found, or be removed to a museum? Alternatively, will it be covered over for good, allowing a modern developer to build over it?
These questions have recently arisen around the ancient city of Beit Shemesh in the center of the country, adjacent to route 38. At the end of 2018, an archaeological dig revealed a large settlement that was apparently used as a center for the production of olive oil. This was a major discovery since the site was dated as flourishing during the late First Temple period, around the eighth to seventh century BCE. This made the site particularly significant in that it is clearly connected to the Biblical period as mentioned in the second Book of Kings.
What was surprising to the archaeologists was that this site went against the perceived assumptions of the period – that after the Assyrian king Sennacherib (2 Kings, Chapters 18 and 19) had plundered much of the kingdom of Judea, destroying many of the fortified cities including Beit Shemesh, the cities were left as ghostly reminders of the vicious Assyrian invasion. The dig in Beit Shemesh clearly shows that this city, at least, was revived, under the aegis of the Assyrian or Babylonian empires and indeed flourished as an important economic center for the kingdom of Judea.
“It’s significant,” explains Dr. Yehuda Govrin, chief archaeologist on the site, “that the development of the area took place lower down, at the foot of the Tel. Any rebuilding of the Tel might have suggested a potential rebellion. But lower down, development was permissible.”
