Pediofile Hanging Around Beit Shemesh Yeshivois trying to seduce them and Roshei Yeshiva do absolutely nothing
Satmar Newspaper "Der Blatt" Doesn't Mention the word "Belz" When Reporting That a Major Chassidus Will Join the Israeli Curriculum
Thank G-d, Satmar followers have DIN who will decipher all this.
The By line in this Satmar Yiddish weekly rum by the chachumim of the Aroinie Faction, is the second from the bottom that reads as follows:
"Shock and Pain after Reports That a Huge Moisad in Eretz Yisrael will be the first recognized Chareidie Moisad to accept the Israeli "Mamlachtee Chareidie" System from the Misrad HaChiuch and Shmad"
So what did Belz actually accept?
The teaching of Math & English!
Yoi Vei! Yentee please bring me a stiff drink!
Muslim military veteran hopes to unseat Ilhan Omar
A Somali-born U.S. Army veteran has joined the Republican field seeking to challenge Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., calling out her lack of attention to the needs of her constituents as violent crime surges in Minneapolis.
Her journey began in Somalia under a socialist dictatorship. When the Civil War happened in her home country, she fled to Kenya, staying in the refugee camps in the slums there for three years while waiting for the immigration process to take place to come to America.
Immigrating to the U.S. at 13, Abdirahman joined the military shortly after graduating from high school. During her freshman year of college, she felt compelled to enlist after hearing about the Black Hawk Down incident during the U.S.’s war with Somalia, which left 18 Americans and hundreds of Somalis dead, according to Smithsonian.

Simcha Felder Stabs Frum People in the Heart by Voting for DemonRats Redistricting Plan Nullifying the Orthodox Votes
New York’s legislature approved new congressional district maps Wednesday that will expand Democrats’ power for years to come in a state where the party already holds a dominating advantage.
The Senate voted 43-20 on party lines Wednesday to pass the congressional maps. The bill largely passed on party lines in the Assembly with a 103-45 vote.
The redrawn maps would ensure that Democrats make up a strong majority of registered voters in 22 of the 26 congressional districts the state will have in 2023.
Republicans, who now hold eight of New York’s 27 seats in Congress, say they’re considering fighting the maps in court, calling them an illegal attempt at a type of gerrymandering barred under the state’s constitution.
The Legislature faces pressure to quickly pass maps, with the state’s election primaries just months away in June.
If they survive any court challenges, the maps will mean reelection trouble for several Republican House members.
In New York City, U.S. Rep. Nicole Malliotakis, a Staten Island Republican, would face running in a district stretched to include some of Brooklyn’s most liberal neighborhoods.
Bombshell: Police Illegally Hacked Phone Of Key Witness In Netanyahu Cases
Israel Police illegally hacked into the phone of a key witness in the criminal cases against former prime minister Binyanim Netanyahu, retrieving a large amount of data without a court warrant, Channel 13 News reported on Wednesday evening.
The retrieved data included text, photos, phone numbers, and use of various apps.
Channel 12 News played recordings in which police investigators are heard talking about illegally hacking someone’s phone, immediately prior to speaking with Shlomo Filber, a state witness in Case 4000.
In the ensuing uproar in response to the report, right-wing politicians called to drop the criminal cases against Netanyahu.
Netanyahu responded to the report by writing on Twitter: “An earthquake: This evening it was revealed that police illegally hacked phones in order to topple a strong right-wing prime minister.”
The revelation is likely to lead to significant delays in Netanyahu’s trial as his lawyers could demand to review the material and take appropriate action or demand a retrial if the individual in question was a witness who already testified in the case.
The report comes after Israel Police admitted that they illegally used spy software to hack into private citizens’ phones.
According to the Channel 13 report, the information about Netanyahu’s case was revealed as part of an inquiry by the Justice Ministry into the NSO exposé.

Whoopi Goldberg is “livid” after she was suspended from “The View” over her claim that the Holocaust was “not about race” — and is telling co-workers she is going to quit the show, according to a source.
Goldberg, 66, feels “humiliated” at being disciplined by ABC execs after she followed their advice to apologize for the ill-conceived comments, a well-placed insider told The Post.
“She feels ABC executives mishandled this. She followed their playbook. She went on ‘The Late Show With Stephen Colbert’ and then apologized again on ‘The View’ the next day,” a source said.
The source added that while Goldberg is taking the suspension hard and says she wants to leave the show, insiders believe she’s likely just sounding off.

What's really the Margulies "behind the scene" Story?
I received hundreds of emails asking me the background of R' Margulies.
So here is a copy of a post by Paul Mendlowitz on August 16, 2011.
Ten years after Rav Yaakov Kaminetzky zt"l forced Lipa Margulies to surrender his property at 150 Ocean Parkway to Bais Din, to be held in Trust pending a full accounting of the sources of the millions of dollars raised under the name Yeshiva Torah Vodaath of Flatbush, Rabbi Gedalya Schorr (a good friend of Margulies), released the property back to Margulies WITHOUT any accounting of the millions of dollars raised, with a "promise" from Margulies to never use the name of Yeshiva Torah Vodaath again or lose 150 Ocean Parkway (which was sold subsequently by Margulies).
That would make it a full 21 years that Margulies was raising large sums of money from the unwitting masses, under the guise of being Yeshiva Torah Vodaath.
By that time, Margulies had already built the new building at 555 Ocean Parkway, and Rabbi Gedalya Schorr had attended the groundbreaking years before, during his tenure as principal or menahel of YTV.
It is interesting to note, and no coincidence, that Frank Klein, the deceased nursing home magnate, who in 1966 was on the original deed transferring the property to YTV, and a board member of Margulies' school, in 1977 was a board member of YTV, a very close ally of Margulies and Schorr, and a very "prominent" Ger chasid, as was Rabbi Schorr (for different reasons of course).
This could only have been done if R' Yaakov Kaminetzky or his designated rosh yeshiva of YTV, R' Zelig Epstein, was out of the hanhala of YTV....
With these facts now disclosed, we will shortly revisit the years of YTV after R' Reuvain Grozofsky z"tl passed away, the subsequent din Torah with Rabbi Aaron Kotler z"tl, his ruling regarding Rabbi Schorr's duties at YTV, the fierce battle for the Rosh Yeshiva position waged by Rabbi Schorr once Rabbi Kaminetzky announced his intentions to retire in 1966, and the events that ultimately destroyed Beth Medrash Elyon in Monsey, and brought YTV to the brink of disaster, causing YTV to become a third-rate Banana yeshiva!
