Moriah Cohen, Stabbed By Her Terrorist Neighbor Says She’s Not Leaving

 




Moriah Cohen, the woman who was stabbed in the back by a terrorist Wednesday morning near Shimon Hatzadik, recollected the incident on Channel 12 during the evening. Cohen was released from hospital earlier in the day after suffering light injuries.

Cohen, a 26-year-old mother of 5, told Channel 12 news on Wednesday evening that she noticed the assailant, “who had such hatred in her eyes.”

She then felt “a hard blow on my back, and I screamed in pain, and my son said to me, ‘Mommy, you have a knife in your back’.”

In the commotion that followed, as she called for help, “the terrorist, it seems, panicked and ran away,” Dvir Cohen, her husband, said.

“It was a miracle,” he said. “If she had continued, I don’t know how this would have ended. I don’t want to think about it.”

Dvir added that his wife is “feeling fine” despite being stabbed in the back with a 30 cm knife.

“She said it hurts less than childbirth,” he quipped.

Moriah said that she does not want to dwell on what triggered the attack and just wants to thank Hashem for the miracle as well as the wonderful people who treated her and took care of her children.

The attacker lives adjacent to the Cohen family, although the Jewish families in Nachalat Shimon do not have much interaction with their Arab neighbors. It is not clear as yet if the  attacker intentionally targeted the victim because she lives in the neighborhood. The Cohens are one of several dozen Jewish families who live in Nachalat Shimon, situated next to the Sheikh Jarrah neighborhood where riots broke out in May after the court determined that Arab tenants in Jewish owned homes would be evicted from their homes if they did not recognize the Jewish ownership.

Cohen said there have been issues between the Jewish and Arab residents for a while, with the latter often throwing stones at them, and during May fighting between Israel and the Gaza Strip nearly a dozen Molotov cocktails were tossed at their home.

But, despite the danger, Dvir Cohen said the family will continue to live in the neighborhood.

“It is part of our mission in life,” he said.

“I won’t give up on being here,” Moriah Cohen said in her TV interview.

Letter of Rabbi Moshe Feinstein, Permitting Wigs [shaitels] ...Being Auctioned by Genizim

 

Fundamental Responsum of Rabbi Moshe Feinstein, Permitting Wigs [shaitels] for married women. New York, 1962

Handwritten & Autographed!

The fundamental and popularly-quoted responsum of the Posek Hador and author of Igros Moshe Harav Moshe Feinstein writes regarding wearing wigs: “Most of our Rabbis, including those that we rely on for the fundamentals of deciding halachah, permit it.”

After delivering this verdict, he explains the rationale of permitting a married woman to wear a wig and sharply addresses the letter writer who wished to act stringently and forbid his wife from wearing a wig.

“His honor may not prevent his respectable wife from wearing a wig, for even if his honor would like to be stringent, he may not impose his stringencies upon her, for this is her law. Since she is following the law according to the majority of opinions…he may not rule stringently on her account.”

New York, 1962. 2 Leaves. Page size: 28x21.5 cm. Published in Igros Moshe, Even Haezer Vol. 2 Ch. 12.

"Gedoilim" Made the Wrong Call Again Instructed Chareidi MKs To Turn Down Secret Offer From Bennet & Lieberman Which Would Increase Budget To Yeshivos

 

Bechadrei Chareidim revealed an unusual incident among the charedi parties that took place on the night of the vote on the state budget in the Knesset.

Two MKs from Agudas Yisroel, Meir Porush and Israel Eichler, had a particularly tempting proposal in their pockets which included large budgets totaling about 1.2 billion NIS that would be given by the government to the Yeshivos and Talmud Torah programs in exchange for abstaining during the vote on the state budget on second and third readings. The proposal did not require all party members to abstain, just those two.

It's All Over, Folks ...New York City Poised To Give Voting Rights To Noncitizens

 


 New York City, long a beacon for immigrants, is on the cusp of becoming the largest places in the country to give noncitizens the right to vote in local elections.

Legally documented, voting-age noncitizens comprise nearly one in nine of the city’s 7 million voting-age inhabitants. Under a bill nearing approval, some 800,000 noncitizens would be allowed to cast ballots in elections to pick the mayor, City Council members and other municipal officeholders

Noncitizens still wouldn’t be able to vote for president or members of Congress in federal races, or in the state elections that pick the governor, judges and legislators.

Little stands in the way of the effort becoming law. The measure has broad support within the City Council, which is expected to ratify the proposal Thursday. Mayor Bill de Blasio has raised concerns about the wisdom and legality of the legislation, but said he won’t veto it.

What Happened to the London Boys Choir ? Watch 50 year Re-union

 




Yigal Calek and the London School of Jewish Song, who wowed crowds across the globe over the span of decades, joined together once more on the last night of Chanukah to regale both themselves and their audience with song and music.

Calek, Yigal Calek and the London School of Jewish Song were not only revolutionary with their contribution of songs to the Jewish world, but were also a key player in the advent of the frum concert; prior to the London School of Jewish Song’s concert performances in the early 1970’s, musical events were almost exclusively held in the basements of shuls. 

Calek a sixth grade rebbi, composer, and musical director, released his first album (Ma Navu) in 1970 with his London Pirchim Choir (which later morphed into the London School of Jewish Song), and followed it up with many more albums filled with songs that have become classics in the Jewish music genre.
