Take your Kids to the Movies ....Lakewood Roshei Yeshiva Ban Separate-Seating Lag Baomer Concert

 

Times are changing, and Lakewood population is changing....children need an outlet..the Lakewood Roshei Yeshiva will learn soon that if they don't change their attitude quickly they will lose more children  to the fast growing OTD communities......they seem to be out of touch to what's going on ... 

Three of the Lakewood Roshei Yeshiva have banned a separate seating concert in Lakewood scheduled for Friday, Lag Baomer. The event was to have singer Benny Friedman perform as well as a storyteller.

Interestingly, an event to be held on Lag Baomer night — scheduled to be held in the same exact location — was not banned.

That event was being hosted by “Minyan Shelanu” of Lakewood.

The letter reads in part: “our community has a longstanding policy that disallows concerts in the city of Lakewood, since it is a form of entertainment that runs contrary to the spirit of Torah scholars and greatly undermines the Torah atmosphere of our community….

“Running any event in the First Energy / Blue Claws Stadium is itself a serious breach of our community’s policies. Since the stadium’s opening, a stringent ‘fence’ has been established: not to enter or make use of the stadium for any purpose – whether for a sporting event or for a privately run program…

“a concert in Lakewood, and in particular in this stadium, is an unprecedented breach of our community’s policies, which is likely to initiate a far-reaching erosion of Lakewood’s unique Torah atmosphere. We therefore urge parents not to bring their children to this event, nor to support it or participate in any way.”

Use a False Entry Permit – and Be Banned from Israel for Five Years

 

Authorities in Israel said this morning that numerous fake entry permits have been confiscated on a daily basis, as unscrupulous individuals are taking advantage of those desperate to visit Israel by selling them fabricated paperwork for upwards of $3-500.

When those possessing these fake papers arrive at Ben Gurion Airport, they have no chance of being allowed entry into the country, as all names of those who have received legitimate entry permits are contained in an electronic database. Once one’s passport number is entered into the computer, the jig is up.

“It’s just not worth it,” said Rabbi Nechemia Malinowitz of the Igud hayeshivos  this morning. “You’ll be wasting your time and money, and you’ll be sent right back from where you came.”

Indeed, those with fraudulent permits are being sent right back to their country of origin on the next available flight – on their dime.

So besides for being rejected entry, they’ve wasted money on a round-trip flight to Israel.

To compound matters, anyone caught with a fake entry permit is being banned from entering Israel for a period of five years – no exceptions.

Unfortunately, it has become virtually impossible to track down the sources of the fake permits, because they are being sold in multiple cities and multiple locations in the Diaspora. So rather than focusing on those who are dispensing this fallacious papers, the focus right now is on informing unwitting travelers to be cautious and to ensure that their entry permits are authentic.

“It doesn’t take much to fake an entry permit,” . “It’s a question of taking an existing permit and changing the name and numbers. But upon entry to Israel, there’s no way to get by the security apparatus.”

1,600-Year-Old Multicolored Mosaic With Geometric Motifs Uncovered In Yavne

 

A 1,600-year-old mosaic uncovered in Yavne, which archaeologists said may have once graced a mansion in an affluent neighborhood, is set to go on display in the central city, the Israel Antiquities Authority announced Monday.

The multicolored mosaic flooring dated to the Byzantine era (4th-5th century CE) was unearthed during excavations and was initially thought to be plain white due to a patina coating.

The mosaic was cleaned using special acid “and to our astonishment, a colorful mosaic carpet was revealed, ornamented with geometric motifs.”

The archaeologists said it was the first time that flooring of this type had been discovered in Yavne, and it “may have been part of a splendid residential building in a wealthy neighborhood adjacent to the industrial zone.”

Mystery in Lakewood As 8 year-old goes Missing For Hours and returns Home Naked in Shock

 

This past Friday, an 8 year-old boy went out of his house, in Toms River,  with his bike and didn't return. After his parents reported him missing, a massive search was performed by the local organizations such as Hatzala etc, but couldn't find him anywhere. 

He suddenly showed up hours later, totally naked like the day he was born. When questioned, he remained stoic and wouldn't respond. Police could not get any answers from him and the investigation continues.

What's interesting is that the Lakewood Scoop, a Lakewood blog removed the entire story from its website, without any explanations.

NYC sees bloodiest week this year with 46 separate shooting incidents

 

New York City endured its bloodiest week so far this year, as gun violence continues to soar ahead of what could be another violent summer.

NYPD data shows 50 people were shot in 46 separate incidents over a seven-day period ending Sunday evening — a more than 250 percent surge from the same week in 2020.

Last year, the NYPD says it logged 12 shootings with 14 victims during the same time  — more than a month into the city’s COVID-19 lockdown, according to the weekly Compstat data.

But the same week in 2019 saw nearly identical figures.

This weekend alone recorded nearly two dozen shootings to cap off the violent week, according to police. 

The nearly year-long trend in gunplay began last spring as New Yorkers grappled with the first wave of COVID-19.

Mayor Bill de Blasio has repeatedly chalked up the troubling surge to a “perfect storm”of variables caused by the pandemic — including a court slowdown — despite evidence to the contrary. 

The shootings, however, have shown no signs of slowing even as the city and state slowly reopen.

So far this year, 376 shootings have been reported with 416 victims, according to NYPD data.

The mayor announced his policing plan to curb the gun violence last week, but nearly all of the measures were implemented in 2020, including the “Summer All Out” initiativethat failed to slow a months-long surge in shootings.

One Bronx cop slammed the mayor for touting gun arrests amid the shootings spike. 

“The mayor talks about record gun arrests — the only record we will have this year is record shootings,” the cop told The Post.

Over the last two weeks, gun arrests were down compared to last year.

Republicans Projected to Regain House Majority in Midterm Elections

 An internal survey of battleground congressional seats from the National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) found Republicans are poised to take back the House in the upcoming midterm elections.

The April battleground survey also found House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) is the most unpopular politician in the country. Previously, the NRCC’s February polling found Pelosi was the most unpopular politician with a 41 percent favorable and a 52 percent unfavorable rating. This month, Pelosi’s image dropped to 38 percent favorable and 56 percent unfavorable. 

Additionally, the survey also found Pelosi hits 60 perfect unfavorable in “Trump/Democratic districts.” According to the NRCC press release, “Democrats in these districts are going to have an uphill battle defending their decisions to vote in lockstep with Pelosi’s socialist agenda.”

The survey was conducted between April 18-21. It consisted of 1,000 voters across 85 Battleground Congressional Districts and included an oversample in 16 ticket-splitting districts. Polling was conducted 65 percent over a cell phone, 15 percent from a landline, and 20 percent online.

How John Kerry Stabbed Israel Ratted out Israeli Covert Operations to the Iranian Murderers to Undermine Trump Middle-East Peace

 

From a leaked tape we learn that former Secretary of State John Kerry informed  Zarif that Israel had attacked Iranian interests in Syria at least 200 times, to his astonishment, Mr. Zarif said.

John Kerry was ratting out Israeli covert operations in Syria directly to the Iranian foreign minister. Let that sink in. Wow. https://t.co/lmzhamTWFf pic.twitter.com/DzMAHAJeGy

The rather curious defining feature of Democratic Party foreign policy, going back at least four decades, is that our friends must be bullied and our enemies must be appeased. 

The Democratic worldview holds that America is a source of geopolitical evil whose destructive influences must be tamed and reined in, and that America’s enemies must be emboldened in order to tilt the global playing field away from America’s noxious ambit.

Barack Obama’s administration encapsulated this toxic ideology through its single-minded pursuit of a nuclear accord with the world’s No. 1 state sponsor of terrorism during the president’s lame-duck second term. Many of the leading hucksters who comprised Team Obama’s “negotiators” with Tehran — Wendy Sherman, Robert Malley, and Colin Kahl among them — are now reprising their roles during Uncle Joe Biden’s third Obama term.

No individual personified the Obama Bros’ supine tango with the mullahs better than then-Secretary of State John Kerry. Kerry, the “statesman” who has been on the wrong side of every major foreign affairs issue since at least the Swift Boats of Vietnam, betrayed his country in borderline-treasonous fashion as Obama’s chief diplomatic lackey. Not content to sell the farm — and scores of unmarked pallets of U.S. taxpayer cash — to a mullocracy with untold American blood on its hands as a diplomat,

 Kerry then traitorously colluded as a layman with his pal, Iranian Foreign Minister Javad Zarif, to undermine the Trump administration’s “maximum pressure” Iran containment strategy.

Alas, we now know it is apparently even worse. 

New leaked audio appears to reveal that Kerry, now Team Biden’s special climate envoy, divulged to Zarif the details of over 200 clandestine Israeli military operations taken against Iranian targets in Syria. One might be loath to take on blind faith the claims of a thug like Zarif, but in this case the shoe fits. This is who John Forbes Kerry is — who he always has been, and always will be.

And if confirmed, what an utter, shambolic disgrace it is. The man who was then serving as America’s leading diplomat on the global stage betrayed our Israeli allies with reckless abandon, opting instead to buttress a rogue jihadist state and its barbarous Syrian satrapy. Rational American allies the world over will respond to this perfidy by trusting the U.S. much less with sensitive military intelligence. And for what end, other than the perverse, self-serving satisfaction of Team Obama’s “echo chamber” miscreants?

The American Left frequently responds with bemusement or defiance when it is accused of harboring a barely concealed anti-American animus. With this latest example of the full depth of leftist anti-Israel zealotry and pro-Iran sycophancy, perhaps liberals will respond next time with less confusion. In the interim, John Kerry has helped solidify his odious legacy as a dunderhead par excellence, at best — and a traitorous anti-Western ideologue, at worst.

Familiar Yerushalme Character in Geulah Had Enough of the guys protesting Against the Internet

There is a guy in Yerushalyim who hires "baalei teshuvah" to walk around with signs that warn about the internet....they walk around screaming like frightened banshies while holding signs.

You can see these meshugaim around Yerushalayim especially in Geula and also in front of Mir Yeshiva..they wear helmets for some reason 

Well one of the storekeepers in Geulah, who is a very familiar face in Geulah,  a veteran Yerushalmie ....had enough; I guess he was trying to take a nap..these crazies with the signs were disturbing his afternoon nap, and so he ran out to stop them..it didn't end well ..

Little did they know that they would wind up on the internet
