Bennett Talks to Biden on the Phone and Halts Jerusalem E1 Corridor Plan

 

Prime Minister Naftali Bennett on Sunday evening spoke with President Joe Biden for the first time since the PM’s visit to the White House on August 28.

Also on Sunday: Bennett and Defense Minister Benny Gantz ordered the Judea and Samaria Supreme Planning Committee to suspend discussions on approving the E-1 construction plan to connect Ma’ale Adumim and Jerusalem. The plan covers an area of about 3,000 acres, most of it is state land, with the construction of about 3,500 housing units at its center.

E1 is located at the narrowest point of Judea and Samaria, where the illegal Khan al Ahmar squatters’ settlement has been festering since 2018, with both the Netanyahu and Bennett governments preferring to ignore a Supreme Court decision to remove it. That’s because E1 is the key to whether or not there will be a Palestinian State someday in Judea and Samaria. If E1 remains desolate, with only the illegal shantytown dotting the area from Ma’ale Adumim to Jerusalem, there’s a good chance a contiguous Palestinian State will someday stretch through there. On the other hand, should the plan for urban sprawl from Jerusalem to Ma’ale Adumim be carried out, then any future Arab political entity would be forever split in its middle.

The E1 plan had been frozen for years, and the Supreme Committee renewed deliberations on it during PM Netanyahu’s last government. The committee proceeded through the first eight months of the Lapid-Bennett coalition but now put it aside again. According to Israel Hayom, one reason for the halt was an outcry from Meretz who declared that E1 constituted a red line that cannot be crossed. The other objection to the E1 plan has been coming from the Americans, who are well aware of the consequences to the two-state plan should a solid wall of Israeli suburban homes be allowed to stretch across the PA’s narrowest waist.

Agudah Protests Antisemitic Cartoon in Monsey Newspaper


 An antisemitic ad has been published in one of the largest newspapers in Rockland County, the Journal News (aka Lohud).

The Agudath Israel has released a statement against the disgraceful ad, and is demanding an apology. The ad cartoon depicts an image of a puppet-master representing a Rabbi, who is manipulating what appear to be children on top of a pile of cash. The headline next to the ad says: 

Rabbi holds the strings on $76M for East Ramapo School District

Here is the statement in response:

Agudath Israel of America viewed with alarm an incendiary promotional advertisement published today for an upcoming article in Journal News (Lohud), a popular newspaper in Rockland County.

The caption, “Rabbi holds the strings on $76M for East Ramapo School District… Coming Feb. 9,” appears above a puppet master using pencils and string to manipulate what appears to be children atop a pile of cash.

While the article, or even the identity of the “rabbi” (as though his “rabbihood” is somehow germane) are unknown, the caricature evokes the worst antisemitic tropes, and is categorically unacceptable. The concept of the Jew as a conspiratorial puppet master, covertly manipulating the world economy and events, harks back to at least the 1700’s, as further amplified upon in the Protocols of the Elders of Zion. Its imagery and underlying implications have stoked pogroms for hundreds of years, and was employed as recently as by the Pittsburgh synagogue shooter, who killed 11 worshippers in the largest modern mass shooting against Jews in America, at Tree of Life in 2018. We wonder how any article which emerges from an editorial board that approved such a hateful cartoon can pretend to be free from bias.

Agudath Israel calls for a full apology, and actionable commitment by Lohud to avoid bigoted imagery and coverage of the Jewish community in Rockland County in the future.

Dovi Soiefer Was Attacked By Two Rottweilers -This Was His Unusual Request From Their Jewish Owner

 

Dovi Soiefer, a Jewish businessman, arrived in Miami for a business conference – “the ECAP Health Conference” this week, looking forward to productive business meetings.

On his way to the conference, Soiefer was attacked by two rottweiler dogs, who knocked him to the ground and scratched and bit him on the arm. After the owner of the dogs succeeded in controlling them, he gave Soiefer his number and told him to be in touch and receive restitution from him.

A woman from the hotel who saw the attack called police, who said that if Soiefer pressed charges, the dogs would be put down.

The embarrassed owner of the dogs pleaded with Soiefer not to press charges and promised him compensation for his injuries. The man said that he had already recently lost a dog to sickness and did not want to lose his other dogs. However after Soiefer heard that the owner of the dogs was Jewish, he had a different request from him.

In Israel Pizza is now made by Robots



Anthony Blinken stands accused of meddling in Albanian elections on behalf of billionaire financier George Soros and is being sued for defamation in an international court as a result.

 

As if Secretary of State Antony Blinken weren’t embroiled in enough foreign debacles, he now stands accused of meddling in Albanian elections on behalf of billionaire financier George Soros and is being sued for defamation in an international court as a result. 

One of Blinken’s curious first actions on taking office being sworn in last year was to sanction the former president and prime minister of Albania, Sali Berisha, the anti-communist ally of Presidents H.W. and W. Bush, and who has been in opposition for eight years, and who is a vocal opponent of Soros and his Open Society Foundations, which has been pushing judicial and electoral “reform” in Albania. 

In an official statement and accompanying tweet last April, Blinken alleged that Berisha is “corrupt” and had “undermined democracy in Albania,” and barred him, his wife and two children from entering the US. 

Chassidim Upset Because of Swastikas Spray-Painted on School Buses in ... But Will they burn the Israeli Flag on Purim?

 

So I see that when their vehicles are defaced with hate slogans, they don't like it one bit, but come Purim they will burn the Jewish flag on the streets of Williamsburg and stand around like drunk baboons mocking a flag that for Goyim around the world represents the Jewish people. 

That flag that they despise represents them as well, as goyim given the opportunity will shove them and the Zionists into the same ovens.

Rabbanim always say "this is because of this, and this is because of that"

So maybe just maybe, this is a wake up call from Above, not to be "metzaar" other Jews that hold that flag sacred!

Frum Jews in Williamsburg were the victim of yet another hate crime on Sunday when a suspect spray-painted swastikas on multiple school buses at Division Avenue and Rodney Street.

The incident comes just a day after multiple chasidim were victimized in unprovoked attacks over Shabbos. The NYPD’s 90th Precinct, Hate Crimes Task Force, and Williamsburg Shomrim are investigating the incident and seeking to identify the suspect in this case.

“I am angry & heartbroken by two more anti-Semitic, violent incidents in our community over Shabbos,” Councilman Lincoln Restler wrote on Twitter. “A man was violently struck upside the head in Bed Stuy by Marcy & Myrtle. Swastikas & other graffiti were spray painted on yeshiva school bus in Williamsburg by Division & Rodney.”

The ADL wrote on Twitter “We are horrified that yeshiva school buses clearly marked in Yiddish could be vandalized in such a way with hateful symbols, especially on the same day that we found two Jewish men to have been assaulted in the area. NY must be a safe heaven for all and this hate must stop!

Chareidim went to bed with the Arabs thinking that they would vote with them and then they Stabbed them in the back



 
As long as they could get the shekels, Chareidie parties would sit with the devil himself. Over the years, Chareidim always courted the leftist even when they were giving back chunks of Eretz Yisrael, even Rav Shach was all for returning Gush Katif and so were the Chareidiem because they didn't live there. Rav Shach would never have agreed to hand the Ponovitz Yeshiva or his own home to the Arabs, "let the Dati Leumi's guys go homeless."
They also supported the Oslo accords that would have given back most of Eretz Yisrael to the Arab murderers, as long as Bnei-Brak was not part of the deal.

When the Arab Party "Raam" won seats in the Knesset with the help of the Chareidim,  (see article below)the Chareidim naturally thought that Raam would vote with the Chareidim as they had common interests; both were against "gius" the IDF Draft, and both wanted shekels to help their "moisdois. " The fact that Arabs forced the Bennett to give them more Jewish land to build and at the same time denied Jewish settlers the exact same privilege, meant nothing to the Chareidim since they don't mind living under the Palestinian flag. The fact that most Arabs anywhere in the world would sooner live under the Zionist flag  means nothing to them.

When the first round of the voting to draft Yeshiva boys came around, Raam helped the Chareidim defeat the bill. And so Deri and his henchman did a gig in the hallways patting the supporters of terrorists on the back, laughing like a bunch of rabid hyenas .

But when the second round of the voting for the Draft bill came around, the Arabs did what they know best they stabbed the Chareidim in the back and voted with Bennett. 
Normal people know that you can only trust an Arab as far as you can throw him. But the "am hasefer" the people of the book trust Arabs more than they trust other Jews. 

 The Chareidie parties naively thought that if only the Arabs would sit in a coalition they would vote with the Chareidim as they believe that they have common values . 
Quick hand me that bag so I can throw up!

Channel 12 News commentator Muhammad Majadele claims that Shas chairman Aryeh Deri was the one who legitimized Mansour Abbas and his Ra’am party as someone who could take part in any coalition.

"In the honeymoon between Mansour Abbas and Netanyahu, the haredi parties and especially former MK Aryeh Deri were among the people who mediated between the parties," Majadele said in an interview with the Kikar HaShabbat news website.

He added that "one of the main people who mediated between Netanyahu and Mansur Abbas was Aryeh Deri - unequivocally. The problem was not the haredim, but the Religious Zionist party - Smotrich, Ben Gvir and their friends - and that is why Mansour Abbas was sent to Rabbi Druckman. It was done with Netanyahu's knowledge and coordinated with him."

Majadele was asked whether Netanyahu and Deri's talks with Abbas legitimized the current government and replied, "Unequivocally. That is why Deri and his friends understand the magnitude of the mistake they made - they legitimized Mansour Abbas and in the end he went with Bennett and Lapid."

Deri has previously denied acting as a mediator between the parties, but at the same time said in closed-door talks that the conduct vis-à-vis Ra’am during the most recent coalition talks was wrong.
