MP David Amess Who Was Murdered by Muslims remembered as a great friend of the British Jewish community and of Israel.

 The UK Jewish community reacted with shock upon learning of the murder of longtime MP Sir David Amess.

Amess, 69, died of his injuries after being stabbed multiple times at a constituency meeting in East London on Friday.

A 25-year old terrorist was arrested on suspicion of murder after armed police charged into the church where the meeting had been taking place. A knife was found at the scene, reported Reuters.

Condolences poured in from a wide spectrum of Jewish community groups who were horrified and expressed their grief.

“We are devastated to hear the news of the murder of Sir David Amess MP. Such violence is an intolerable affront to our democracy and must be met with the full force of the law. We will never forget Sir David’s long and deep friendship to our community. Our hearts go out in profound sorrow to his wife Julia and children Katie, Sarah and David Jr,” Marie van der Zyl, president of the Board of Deputies, said in a statement.

The Jewish Leadership Council tweeted: “We are shocked by the news that Sir David Amess MP has passed away. He always had a very strong and warm relationship with his local Jewish community. Our thoughts are with his family and friends at this time.”

The Community Security Trust said they were "shocked and saddened.

"Our thoughts and condolences are with his family at such a terrible time," they wrote.

As we usher in Shabbat this afternoon, we will have the family of Sir David Amess MP in our prayers," UK Chief Rabbi Ephraim Mirvis said. "Such an attack on an elected parliamentarian is an attack on the whole country. May he his memory be for a blessing.”

United Synagogue CEO Steven Wilson said that “the news of the murder of Sir David Amess is horrific and chilling."

"Democracy is a cherished right and one we can never take for granted," Wilson said. "I know all US members and colleagues will join me in sending condolences to Sir David’s family who are in our prayers.”

The All Party Parliamentary Group Against Antisemitism said it was “devastated to learn of the death of our friend and colleague Sir David Amess MP."

They added: "A long-standing and active member of the APPG Against Antisemitism, he was an excellent public servant. He will be sorely missed. Our thoughts are with his friends and family.”

Conservative Friends of Israel called Amess "a hugely popular and respected MP and a great friend of Israel."

Noting that he was a "parliamentary officer of CFI in the 1990s," the group was "deeply saddened by the news" of his death, and said that "parliament will be a lesser place without him."

"Our thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends. His memory should be a blessing," they said in a statement.

Besides his longtime relationship with the Jewish community, Amess led a lengthy campaign to have a statue of Raoul Wallenberg erected for his work saving thousands of Jews during the Holocaust. The statue eventually was put up next to the Western Marble Arch Synagogue in 1997.

He also signed the Holocaust Educational Trust’s book of commitment in Parliament.

Israeli authorities prevent Lev Tahor members from reaching Iran

 

Israeli authorities have thwarted an attempt by around 150 members of the Lev Tahor cult to flee to an area near the Iran-Iraq border, Asharq Al-Awsat reported.

According to the Middle East Monitor, "dozens" of families in the cult were prevented from fleeing to Iran, where they had applied for asylum.

Kikar Hashabbat reported that at least three people left the main Lev Tahor group and moved to another location in Guatemala, due to concerns over entering Iran.

One of Lev Tahor's leaders told Kikar Hashabbat, "We will yet reach Iran, because in Guatemala, they are chasing after us."

Last week, families from Lev Tahor were seen in an airport, attempting to leave for Iran. According to the reports, the families' heads told security officials at the airport that they want to leave the country because they feel persecuted. The families also explained that due to their troubles in Guatemala, they plan to request asylum from Iran, but the airport security officials did not allow them to board the plane.

Orit Cohen, whose brother is part of the Lev Tahor cult, told 103 FM Radio that there are approximately 150 children, some of whom are not registered since they were born into the cult.

"No one knows, they have no passports, they switch their identities, names, and passports. Fourteen-year-old girls give birth," she told the radio station.

Cohen added, "Our families are trapped, they have no possibility of contacting us. We're all very worried about them, because this will be final."

Apple Scared of the Chinese Remove App for the Quran

 

Apple has removed a popular Quran app from its Chinese app store at the behest of state censors, according to the company behind the app. 

Quran Majeed — a reader app for the Muslim sacred text with nearly one million users in China — was removed from Apple’s Chinese app store at the request of the Cyberspace Administration of China, the app’s developer told The Post on Friday. 

It’s unclear exactly why Chinese authorities allegedly asked Apple to remove the app, but the country’s government is known to discriminate against Muslims. China has demolished mosques, imprisoned Uighur Muslims in detention camps and allegedly forced Muslim women to undergo abortions in what some of the country’s critics say is a campaign of genocide. 

Apple did not immediately reply to a request for comment on the app’s removal, which was first reported by the BBC. 

“Quran Majeed app was removed from the China app store,” said Hasan Shafiq Ahmed, a spokesperson for the Pakistan-based developer behind the app, in an email to The Post. “Apple advised us to contact the Cyberspace Administration of China.” 

“We are trying to get in touch with [cyberspace administration] and relevant Chinese authorities to move forward so Quran Majeed app can be restored,” he added.

Muslims Now Killing British MPs

 

British Prime Minister Boris Johnson, right, and Leader of the Labour Party Sir Keir Starmer, second from right, carry flowers as they arrive at the scene where a member of Parliament was stabbed Friday, in Leigh-on-Sea, Essex, England, Saturday, Oct. 16, 2021. David Amess, a long-serving member of Parliament was stabbed to death during a meeting with constituents at a church in Leigh-on-Sea on Friday, in what police said was a terrorist incident. A 25-year-old Muslim was arrested in connection with the attack, which united Britain's fractious politicians in shock and sorrow

Leaders from across the political spectrum came together Saturday to pay their respects to a long-serving British lawmaker who was stabbed to death in what police say was a terrorist-related attack by a Muslim. His death has reopened questions about the security of lawmakers as they go about their work.

The slaying Friday of the 69-year-old Conservative member of Parliament David Amess during a regular meeting with local voters has caused shock and anxiety across Britain’s political spectrum, just five years after Labour Party lawmaker Jo Cox was murdered by a far-right extremist in her small-town constituency.

“He was killed doing a job that he loves, serving his own constituents as an elected democratic member and, of course, acts of this are absolutely wrong, and we cannot let that get in the way of our functioning democracy,” British Home Secretary Priti Patel said after she joined others, including Prime Minister Boris Johnson, to pay tribute to Amess at the church where he died.

Patel said she has convened meetings with the Speaker of the House of Commons, police departments and U.K. security services “to make sure that all measures are being put in place for the security of MPs so that they can carry on with their duties as elected democratic members.”

On Saturday, in an echo of the political unity that emerged after Cox’s murder, Johnson of the Conservatives, the leader of the opposition Labour Party, Keir Starmer, and the non-partisan speaker, Lindsay Hoyle, arrived at the church where Amess died and laid flowers.

Amess was attacked around midday Friday during his constituency meeting in a church in Leigh-on-Sea, a town 40 miles (62 kilometers) east of London. He suffered multiple stab wounds. Paramedics tried without success to save him. Police have arrested a 25-year-old British Muslim Terrorist for the attack.

The Metropolitan Police has described the attack as terrorism and said its early investigation “revealed a potential motivation linked to Islamist extremism.” It did not provide details about the basis for that assessment. As part of the investigation, officers were searching two locations in the London area.

In "Kiryat Sefer" They are Now Protesting Phone Stores Who sell only "kosher" Phones Unless they pay them off

The same thing is happening in Bnei-Brak, where they are now protesting with violence stores that carry "kosher" Phones exclusively! 

See video below where someone calls Rav Landau the Rav of Bnei-Brak who says he is in favor of protests without explaining why but says he is  against "violence", he then brushes off  the caller and refuses to talk to him ...

Is it any wonder that kids had enough of this crap?

Below is a photo of a guy who follows Chareidim going to buy phones and then harasses them

There is a video where you can see a bochur in a phone store who has had enough of this "terrorist" and slaps him across the face, I won't show it since I don't want the ID of the bochur to go public.

This Past Friday was the 865th Anniversary of the Rambam's Ascent to the Har Habayis

In the above photo, you can clearly see the Rambam's writing in his own handwriting stating that he went up to the Har Habyis. He was accompanied by his father, his brother Dovid and the Chief Rabbi of Akko.

I already talked about this previously and here is the translation of the Rambam's writing about this episode.

 BTW the Rambam mentions this at least 3 times and made a Yom Tov every year on the 6th of Chesvan to commemorate this event .

"In the 26th year of Creation, We left Akko to go up to Yerushalyim under dangerous conditions, and we entered the Great Holy Building; we prayed there on Wednesday the 6th day of the month of Cheshven.I vowed that  I will celebrate this date as a holiday, with prayer, food, drink and happiness to Hashem,G-d should help me with everything to assist me in fulfilling my vows, Amein!And just as I merited to pray in its ruins, I and all of the Jewish people should merit to see in its rebuilding, soon, Amein!"

And in his famous Igeeret Timan, the Rambam repeats this visit for a third time:

יצאנו מן המערב,לחזות בנועם השם, ולבקר מקום קדשו 

" we left from the West, to glance at the Sweetness of Hashem and visited His Holy Abode."

The AP's report on the discovery of a First Temple era toilet omits Jewish references, while a NY Times Rosh Hashanah recipe evokes 'Canaanites,' not Israelites

 

News headlines last week reported on the rare archeological find of a private Kingdom of Judah-era toilet discovered in the remains of a luxurious mansion in Jerusalem. Haaretz noted the presence of dozens of bowls around the ancient lavatory, about which an Israel Antiquities Authority (IAA) official speculated: “they held air freshener, an aromatic oil or incense – anything to make use of the facility less onerous” (“Biblical-era Toilet With Possible Air Fresheners Found in Jerusalem“).

While aromatic oil might have done the olfactory trick in the First Temple-period bathroom, all the fragrant incense in ancient Judah can’t conceal the stench of media reports that erase the long, rich Jewish history of ancient Israel.

The Associated Press’ short article last week on the unusual toilet find was a prime example of news media dumping on Jews’ ancient history in their ancestral homeland (“2,700-year-old toilet found in Jerusalem was a rare luxury“). The leading news agency cited the “rare ancient toilet in Jerusalem dating back more than 2,700 years” while diligently failing to note the historic period in question: the First Temple Period.

White House quietly removes sanctions on Iranian missile companies

 

An advocacy group that warns about the threat of a nuclear Iran has sounded the alarm after the US Treasury Department last week without explanation lifted sanctions on two firms that produced ballistic missiles for the Iranian regime.

United Against Nuclear Iran is questioning why the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFA) suddenly announced it would be removing sanctions on Mammut Industrial Group and its subsidiary Mammut Diesel.

Both companies were sanctioned in September 2020 for “providing support to an entity in Iran’s ballistic missile program.”

The Treasury Department said at the time that “Mammut Industries and Mammut Diesel are key producers and suppliers of military-grade, dual-use goods for Iran’s missile programs.”

“The delisting follows the July 2021 lifting of sanctions on three Iranians who were major shareholders and executives of the Mammut Industrial Group,” United Against Nuclear Iran said in a statement.
