IG report proves FBI Was Curropt in Investigating Trump
It’s now official: Russia, Russia, Russia really was fake news from the start. There was no factual basis for the FBI to spy on Donald Trump’s campaign.
That means there was no need for the appointment of a special counsel and that Robert Mueller should have stayed in retirement. It means the two years of rumors and accusations and the giant cloud of suspicions over the White House produced by Mueller’s headhunters were unfair and unjustified.
It also means J. Edgar Hoover can finally rest in peace. James Comey is now revealed to be the dirtiest cop ever to run the FBI.
HaRav Mutzafi’s Advice : Don’t Visit Countries that Hate Us
HaRav Bentzion Mutzafi Shlita, a prominent sephardi posek in Eretz Yisrael, addressed the accident which claimed the life of Rabbi Dovid Levy Z”L, who was hit by a bus during a visit to Morocco. “It teaches us a lesson not to visit countries that hate us” Rav Mutzafi exclaimed.
Rav Mutzafi was asked by one of his talmidim about the accident, citing the driver of the bus was a non-Jew, who explained he mistakenly stepped on the gas pedal instead of the brake. The talmid asked if he thinks he was killed because he is a Jew?
The rav’s response was harsh, citing the loss is most unfortunate, but it teaches us a lesson, not to visit a hostile nation, “a nation that hates us”.
Over the weekend, a brother-in-law of the niftar, Rav David Netanel, stated the family is certain the so-called accident was an intentional attack and this was determined after interviewing persons who were there. The driver was quick to tell the media that he accidentally hit the gas, not the brake.
Netanel made a public appeal to the King of Morocco and the president of the Jewish community to probe the death, which the family is certain was a terrorist attack and not an accident.

Doctors accused of giving drugs to yeshiva students to curb their sexual desires
The Health Ministry will reportedly investigate four psychiatrists after a television report said they had prescribed drugs to ultra-Orthodox students, including minors, to inhibit their sexual desires.
In an expose aired over the weekend, Channel 12 sent two formerly ultra-Orthodox men undercover to seek care from the prominent mental health professionals — Prof. Omer Boneh, the head of the psychiatry department at Jerusalem’s Hadassah Ein Kerem hospital; Prof. Abraham Weizman of Tel Aviv University; Dr. Michael Bontzel of the Maayanei Hayeshua hospital in Bnei Brak; and Dr. Tali Vishne — after receiving claims from former yeshiva students of the phenomenon, which was ostensibly sought for religious reasons.
Formerly ultra-Orthodox men — primarily from Hasidic sects — said they were given heavy anti-psychotic or antidepressant drugs after admitting to having sexual thoughts, including about other men. They said they were given the medications strictly for their side effects, namely to lower their libido.
I got divorced at the Rabbanut
Having libertarian values and being proud to live in Israel is tough. Balancing a value system that may seem self-contradicting at times invites a unique brand of cognitive dissonance.
It’s a dissonance that extends to how one sees security issues, social problems and welfare in a social democracy, the explanation and defense of these stances in difficult milieus of educated people and academic circles, and yes — how one feels about marriage and divorce in the State of Israel.
I have always been defensive and angry at the centralization and mandate of religious “services” in Israel. I’ve seethed over the religious monopoly at the hands of a ruling minority, the alienation and delegitimization of other Jewish factions worldwide, and the fact that one cannot — CANNOT — convert, marry or divorce in Israel outside of the mandates laid down by the Rabbanut and within its purview.

Blacks Beat & Rob Two Israeli Girls In Flatbush Subway Station ...... Black Subway Rider Just Walks By
An Israeli tourist and her New Yorker pal were attacked by two teens at knifepoint at a Brooklyn subway station early Friday, police said.
The two women were at the elevated Avenue I station near McDonald Avenue in Midwood, when a female attacker, her head swathed in a white cloth, grabbed one of them, Shelly Zwebner, 20, as the two pals left the platform.
The assailant shoved Zwebner down the stairs, video released by the NYPD shows.
A man then joined the attack, snatching Zwebner’s purse and punching her repeatedly as the female attacker yanked her hair.
The panicked victim shed her coat and pleaded with her assailant as the thief held out a hand and demanded her valuables, the video shows.
Peleg Protestors Taking to the Streets in Jerusalem & Bnei Brak on Sunday
Peleg Yerushalmi "rabbonim" have instructed talmidim and avreichim to take to the streets and resume protests in both Jerusalem and Bnei Brak on Sunday afternoon.
Protestors in Jerusalem are instructed to meet at the junction of Bar Ilan and Shmuel HaNavi Streets at 3:30PM. The moderate faction of Peleg will not be participating.
Rav Tzvi Friedman, a self appointed Rav ...is reportedly expected to address the protest.
The protests follow the arrest and jailing of Peleg-affiliated talmid Yehuda Tumback (טומבק) in Ben-Gurion Airport last week as he tried leaving Israel on a trip to kivrei tzaddikim in Europe, when he was supposed to be learning in Yeshiva..........
Tumback (tooooooo) had refused to register for the draft ....
And now because of his shenanigans .... his crazed colleagues will tie up traffic and cause untold havoc, loss of Jewish hard earned money ..........and bittul Torah!
