It Does Not Appear That EitherParty Has Enough Seats to Form a Coalition.

According to an informal count of 90% of the votes in Tuesday’s elections for the 22nd Knesset, Blue and White has a slight advantage over the Likud.

Blue and White has 33 seats, Likud - 31, Joint List - 12, Shas 9, Yisrael Beytenu - 9, United Torah Judaism - 8, Yamina - 7, Labor-Gesher - 6 and the Democratic Union has 5 seats.

The right-wing bloc has 55 seats and the center-left has 56. Both these numbers do not include Yisrael Beytenu’s 9.

According to the updated official results obtained from the Central Elections Committee: Likud -28%, Blue and White - 26.4%, Shas - 8.7%, UTJ - 8.3%, Yisrael Beytenu - 7.7%, Yamina - 6.6%, Labor-Gesher - 5%, Democratic Union - 4.4%, Otzma Yehudit - 2.2% and the Joint List - 1.74%.

The voter turnout in Tuesday’s election was 69.4 percent, 1.5 percent higher than the voter turnout at the end of the previous election in April of 2019.

Exit polls published on Tuesday night showed that Blue and White was the largest party in the Knesset and is followed by the Likud, but it does not appear that either party has enough seats to form a coalition.

Avigdor Liberman’s Yisrael Beytenu party will probably be the deciding factor in determining who will head Israel’s next government – Binyamin Netanyahu or Benny Gantz.

The Theory that "You are born gay" Debunked in Huge Study ...... No Gay Gene ! .... "Feigalach Turning Over"

The largest study to date on the genetic basis of sexuality has revealed  —that  DNA markers are not reliable enough to predict someone’s sexuality.

The findings, which are published on 29 August in Science and based on the genomes of nearly 500,000 people, shore up the results of earlier, smaller studies and confirm the suspicions of many scientists: while sexual preferences have a genetic component, no single gene has a large effect on sexual behaviours.

“There is no ‘gay gene’,” says lead study author Andrea Ganna, a geneticist at the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard in Cambridge, Massachusetts.

צארטל בת אסתר מלכה 

''דף ב' ''מסכת כרתות       

Page 2 Mesectas Kreesois

"Mesactas Kreesois" 

There are certain punishments the Torah did not place in the hands of the Beit Din to administer. 

Rather, the Torah determined certain cases were punishable by karet (a penalty of Divine punishment, cutting off of the soul). 

Masechet Keritot opens with a listing of the offenses for which the penalty is karet, as well as the halachot related to the implementation of the karet punishment — (from the word keritah, “cutting off”).

Rambam posits that there are three types of karet:

“Karet Kal” (mild ‘cutting off’): 

where the offender dies before their time, but retains their place in Olam Haba (World to Come) and still merits techiyat ha’meitim (resurrection of the dead).

“Karet Chamur” (more serious ‘cutting off’): 

where the offender lives a full life, but does not merit Olam Haba.

“Karet HaChamur Be’Yoter” (the most severe ‘cutting off’): 

where the offender’s life is cut short and their soul is excluded from Olam HaBa.

However, the penalties are different for a Chozer B’Teshuvah (person who has repented). 

According to Rambam in Hilchot Teshuvah, even an individual who was banned from Olam Haba, can regain that privilege if they were to do teshuva. The importance of teshuva supersedes all considerations.

Natanyahu & His Wife Sara Diss the "Vayoel Moshe" and Go To the Kotel to Daven Before Elections

Tens of Thousands Attend "Voting Kinus" With Ger, Belz, R' Chaim Kanievski Defying R' Sternbuch, R' Tuvia Weiss & Satmar

 Tens of thousands of Chareidim came from all over Eretz Yisroel to stick the thumbs into the eyes of the Satmar, R' Sternbuch and R' Tuvia Weiss's SHIT'ah who claim "that voting is prohibited min ha'Torah"

All those attended were handed a 64 page booklet called 

קנאות של אמת

which basically broke down the entire anti-voting SHIT'ah and then concludes that not voting is actually against the Torah and it is a "SHIT'ah Shel Sheker" 

The booklet had quotes from the previous Belzer Rebbe, R' Aaron Rokeach, the previous Sadigera Rebbe, Rav Zalman Sorotzkin, Rav Aron Kotler, Chazon Ish, the Imrei Emes, the Tchabiner Rav, R' Yechezkel Sarna, etc... 

all writing that there is a "Chiyuv" to vote in Israeli Elections....

and that was in the very first Israeli Elections...

Harav Malach Mocks the Sfardi "Babbas"

The video is in Yiddish, and I don't have the time to translate, but the bottom line he is making "choizik" of those who run to Sfardi Mekubalim

Says; " not everyone can become a "dayan" a Rabbinical Judge but anyone can become a "Babba" all you have to do is dream and tell someone "that you had a dream" " and poof ...you are a babba

I''ts all right to run to Chassidihe  Rebbes and then claim that the Rebbe  performed a miracle but it's not alright for Sfardim to run to their "Babbas" for chizuk and miracles ...

The whole video is dedicated 

to  mock Sfardic customs  .....

I sincerely hope that he doesn't dream that one of those "babbahs" that he mocked bites him in his fat behind

The Winner of the DemocRAT Debate Was ........ TRUMP!

And the winner is . . . Donald Trump.

The Democrats’ third presidential debate was a long-winded, platitude-filled disaster where no single candidate could claim a clear victory. Instead, the seven men and three women took turns displaying why they are all probably unelectable.

On issue after issue, the candidates engaged in unclear, confusing, halting policy discussions — 

It got so bad that Julian Castro, one of the seven people on the stage who have as much of a chance of becoming president as I do, thought he’d caught out Joe Biden in a candidacy-ending mistake. 

Hadn’t Biden just said everyone would be forced into Medicare two minutes after saying they could keep their private insurance?

Could Biden not remember what he had said two minutes before?

Castro was playing the senility card against the 76-year-old Biden. 

But the person who was senile in that moment was the 44 year-old Castro, because Biden had not contradicted himself. Castro had misunderstood Biden.

Elizabeth Warren, whose words, sentence by sentence, were perfectly clear but whose meaning was not. In a lengthy attack on Trump’s tariffs, she defended Trump’s tariffs. In another assault on Trump’s Afghanistan policy she basically said everything that Trump has said about Afghanistan. 

As for Bernie Sanders, the only question I have to ask is this: 

Will the $30 trillion cost of his health care plan cover some throat lozenges? 

He spent the entire night needing to clear his throat. It was maddening, though perhaps not as maddening as him screaming at us as though we had just cut him off in traffic.

The nomination voting begins in February, which gives the party nearly five months to get its act together. If Thursday was any indication, five years wouldn’t be enough time.
