For $5.00 You Can Take a Dip in the Satmar Mikvah & They Will Throw in the Virus For Free

This sign was spotted in Williamsburg that advertised that the "Satmar Mikvah is open for everyone Erev Shviee Shel Pesach ...

for $5.00 a dip...."

What they didn't write is that by going to a mikvah that's open for everyone ... you can contract the virus ....

but I guess since they transmit the virus for free it wasn't necessary to write something that's obvious....

Thomas Friedman Meshiginer Anti-semitic Reporter from the New York Times Wants AOC As UN Ambassador

Is it time for the United States to name an anti-Israel envoy to the United Nations? 

A senior New York Times columnist believes that in a future Biden administration, that answer has to be "yes."

Former Vice President Joe Biden became the likely Democratic candidate to challenge US President Donald Trump in the 2020 presidential elections in November after political rival Senator Bernie Sanders ended his presidential bid on Wednesday in an acknowledgment that Biden is too far ahead for him to have any reasonable hope of catching up.

In an opinion piece titled "What America Needs Next: A Biden National Unity Cabinet," columnist Thomas Friedman argued that if Biden becomes president, he should name Democratic New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, a staunch critic of Israel,  as his UN ambassador.

Ocasio-Cortez has often accused Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of enacting "unjust and inhumane policies" with respect to the Palestinians and has also backed the actions of the anti-Israel boycott, divestment and sanctions movement.

Friedman, however, offered no explanation as to why he believed Ocasio-Cortez was qualified for the senior position.

Hind Khoudary The Face of Evil and Wickedness

An employee of Amnesty International has been denounced for getting a Gaza peace activist arrested by Hamas authorities for holding a virtual meeting with Israeli counterparts.

Journalist Rami Aman of the Gaza Youth Committee held the conference with the Israelis via the Zoom app, which has become popular as a means of maintaining social ties during the coronavirus pandemic.

The Facebook page for the meeting called it “an opportunity to speak with Gazans who not only do not hate us but are working tirelessly to open channel of communication between Gazans and Israelis.”

Hind Khoudary, who at the time of the incident identified herself on social media as an international research consultant for Amnesty, denounced Aman in a Facebook post – now inaccessible – and tagged three Hamas officials. Aman was arrested on Thursday and has not been heard from since.

In response, Human Rights Watch official Peter Bouckaert, who is himself often hostile to Israel, told Khoudary, “You should be ashamed of yourself.”

“It is disgusting that a so-called ‘journalist’ got an activist for dialogue arrested by Hamas,” he later said. “Conflicts are resolved through dialogue and understanding, not hatred.”

Rabbi Kantor of Monsey Passes Away

 Rav Yosef Meir Hakohein Kantor zt”l, rov of the Agudas Yisroel shul on Remsen Avenue in Monsey, NY, passed away from Covid-19 

Rav Kantor was a venerated tzaddik and talmid chochom who spent his life fully immersed in the service of Hashem. He was a popular maggid shiur, whose shiurim have appeared on Kol Halashon and elsewhere. In addition to being marbitz Torah for decades, Rav Kantor was sought after for his hadracha, his wise counsel, and his brachos, which were known for leading to much-needed yeshuos.

Kind, gentle and soft-spoken, Rav Kantor’s anivus and pashtus often camouflaged the exaltedness of this angel of a man.

Rav Kantor endured a number of nisyonos and challenges during his lifetime, including the petirah of his beloved son, Rabbi Yonason Efraim Kantor zt”l, who passed away five years ago at the age of 54.

Rav Kantor is survived by his devoted wife, Rebbetzin Chana Kantor, and his children and grandchildren.
