Agudath Yisrael And Degel HaTorah Eating Each Other Alive

 


Will the UTJ party split? 

Currently the splintered party does not have enough electoral power to split but certainly enough members to bicker and argue. The present dispute concerns the placements of MKs for the November elections, with both Agudath Yisrael and Degel Hatorah claiming the top spot, which influences the rest of the electoral list.

With the departure of Yaakov Litzman, Agudath Yisrael appointed Yitzchak Goldknopf in his place and assumes that according to previous agreements he will be in the top spot, since in the previous election Degel leader Moshe Gafni held the top position.

Agudah officials said after a meeting between faction heads that “an agreement is an agreement and we expect Degel Hatorah to respect it as we did in the previous elections.”

However Degel Hatorah is claiming that since the party was in opposition and only a year has passed since the previous elections, Moshe Gafni should continue to lead the party in the coming elections. Moreover the Degel Hatorah leaders are angry that Goldknopf, an unpopular person due to his employment tactics as head of the Beis Yaakov kindergartens, has been placed on the list and fear that voters will leave the party en masse if he heads the list.

Degel is also at odds with Belz which is now receiving funds from the Ministry of Education but not under the auspices of Chinuch Atzmai.

A final decision on whether Degel will run alone in the elections will be taken by Rabbi Gershon Edelstein, but with the current electoral polls it is unlikely that the two warring factions will be able to go alone.

Chilling New Audio Shows Adolf Eichmann Admitting to His Role in “Final Solution”

 

Newly released audio of Adolf Eichmann YM”S , the architect of the Nazi’s extermination of Jews who went to the gallows denying any wrongdoing, shows the evil mastermind admitting to being a critical cog in the machinery of the Nazi’s “Final Solution.”

Eichmann conducted 70 hours’ worth of interviews after fleeing Germany for Argentina, 15 of which have now been obtained by a dogged Israeli documentary team. The interviews were conducted secretly in 1957 by Willem Sassen, a Dutch Nazi sympathizer and propagandist.

“If we had killed 10.3 million Jews, I would say with satisfaction, ‘Good, we destroyed an enemy,'” Eichmann can be heard saying. “Then we would have fulfilled our mission.”

In another clip, Eichmann says: “Jews who are fit to work should be sent to work. Jews who are not fit to work must be sent to the Final Solution, period,” adding that he “did not care” if those sent to Auschwitz lived or died.

At one point, Eichmann can be hurt commenting about an insect in the room he was in, saying that it had a “Jewish nature.”

The audio recordings form part of the documentary “The Devil’s Confession,” on which $3 million was spent to produce.

Eichmann was captured by Mossad agents in Argentina in 1960 and transported to Israel where he was put on trial. He was convicted and hanged in 1962.

During his trial, Eichmann was adamant that he had nothing to do with the Final Solution.

“It’s a difficult thing that I am telling you and I know I will be judged for it,” he admitted. “But I cannot tell you otherwise. It’s the truth. Why should I deny it? Nothing annoys me more than a person who later denies the things he has done.”

Hisachdas Ha'Ganavim of Satmar Feeding "treifa Chickens" to its communities

 

I have to laugh, to Satmar the OU  and the Rabbanut is chazir treif, they eat Badatz exclusively. 

About five years ago, the Eida Hachreidis  came out with a statement that all chickens are treif except for the "brakel" chicken. Rav Moshe Yehuda Leib Landa z"l from Bnei-Brak  examined the chicken and ruled that this "eida hachrida" brakel chicken was "chazir treif." BTW those who ate this chicken said that it tasted "like road kill." 

The Satmar hooligans who invested millions in this new chicken breed then tried to intimidate Rav Landa but he basically told them to kiss him where the sun will never shine.

Satmar in coordination with the Hisachus Ha'ganavim have  now tried to sell another breed of chicken and will probably release a Kol Korah prohibiting the chickens that we all eat to push this new breed.

Not so fast! Lishkas Hakashrus came out with a statement that this new "Eida" breed is not kosher, signed by Harav Gruber shlitah. I hope Rabbi Gruber is not a member of "Defund the Police" because if anyone ever studied Satmar History, Rabbi Gruber's life is in mortal danger!

Over 50 shot in NYC shootings over July 4th weekend


 More than 50 people were shot — at least seven of them fatally — during a bloody outbreak of gun violence in the Big Apple over the Fourth of July weekend.


The victims cut across a wide spectrum of New Yorkers — from a pair of former college rugby players wounded while sitting in a cab in Midtown to a beloved 62-year-old Bronx neighborhood “grandfather” who was gunned down by stray bullets.

In all, 51 people were shot in 36 separate incidents since Friday, a huge jump from the 32 people shot in 27 shootings over the holiday weekend last year, NYPD statistics show.

Twenty-one of this year’s holiday weekend victims were shot on Monday’s 246th birthday of American independence, including John Edwards, who was known in his Belmont neighborhood as the “Grandfather of the Block.” By comparison, there were 13 people shot on July 4, 2021.

Consumed with Jew Hatred Ben & Jerry’s Sues Parent Company Unilever Over Sale Of Israeli Business

 

 Ben & Jerry’s is not letting go of its West Bank pullout goal without a fight — with its parent company.

The iconic ice cream brand has filed a lawsuit against Unilever over its decision last week to sell the Israeli arm of the business to Israel-based franchise, American Quality Products, Ltd., which will continue to sell Ben & Jerry’s in the West Bank.

Ben & Jerry’s says that Unilever’s decision was made without the brand’s board’s consent, and wrote in a statement on Tuesday that stopping the sale is necessary to protect “the social integrity that the ice cream brand has spent decades building.” The lawsuit will aim to block the sale.

After publicly critiquing the Unilever move last week, the Ben & Jerry’s board voted on Friday to file the suit, the New York Post reported.

“It’s a done deal,” American Quality Products, Ltd. owner Avi Zinger wrote in response. “Unilever chose the morally correct, socially just and principled path when it ensured that Ben & Jerry’s ice cream would always continue to be produced and sold in Israel and the West Bank.”

The Ben & Jerry’s board, which has a history of social justice advocacy, made the decision to stop selling its products in what they call “Occupied Palestinian Territory” following Israel’s deadly conflict with Hamas in May 2021. Unilever originally stated that it had little power over decisions made by Ben & Jerry’s board, which makes its recent decision to sell a surprise.

Disparaging the State of Israel is a shortcoming that seemingly justifies remaining in the Diaspora today

 

Translation of major points of a televised lecture given by Rabbi Eliyahu, Chief Rabbi of Tsfat, in which he emphasizes the importance of declaring the praises of Eretz Yisrael in rectifying the Sin of the Spies who spoke disparagingly about the Cherished Land, a shortcoming still prevalent today. 

HaRav Yosef Caro explains that Moshe sent the Spies to tour the Land of Israel in order that they return full of its praises and thus ignite a passionate yearning for the Land throughout the Nation. This loving fire in their hearts for the Promised Land would then burn away all impurity remaining from the sin of the Golden Calf, making them worthy of entering and conquering the exalted Holy Land.

In the book, “Eim HaBanim Semeicha,” HaRav Yisachar Shlomo Teichtal teaches that just as the Spies went from tent to tent, spreading negative propaganda about the Land of Israel, so we must follow their example - in order to rectify their transgression, we have to do the counteraction of going house to house, shul to shul, community to community, speaking in praise of the Land to inspire Jews to yearn to dwell there.

Islamic scholar calls homosexuality 'filth that should be trampled'

Gafni Invites "Gedoilei Yisrael" to his daughter's Wedding



 When I say "gedoilei Yisrael" I mean the "gedoilei Yisrael" of the Zionist government, like MK Michaeli, the extreme leftist who is the Minister of Transport. She is on a campaign to have public transportation on Shabbos all over Israel. But that doesn't mean anything to Moshe Gafni, the leader of Charaidie party United Torah Judaism .

 I said this many times the Chareidie Parties don't care about Chillul Shabbas and don't give a hoot about girls in the army, it's all about the $$$! 

They only talk about Chillul Shabbos to get the vote, once elected they do nothing.

Below see a video of Michaeli having a great time at the wedding. 


Here is another lady Gafni invited MK Silman, she was the one who started the toppling of Bennett!

I  guess this tzaddik likes the ladies!

Well the rest of the jealous Chareidim didn't like this one bit.


Michaeli, who was filmed dancing hand-in-hand with the bride, Tamar Brecher, drew particular outrage from the Haredi public.

“For what reason is the partition put up if the women’s dancing is recorded and shared for the eyes of hundreds of thousands of men online?” prominent Haredi journalist Aryeh Erlich asked. “What happened to the value of modesty among the Haredi public?”

Fellow Haredi journalist Yishai Cohen added: “What message does Gafni send by inviting Michaeli as his guest of honor? Apparently, UTJ is suffering from battered woman syndrome.”

Haredi lawmakers also suggested that Gafni may have to pay a political price for inviting Michaeli.

“No one among us is going to talk to him today,” one unnamed UTJ official told Zman Yisrael, The Times of Israel’s Hebrew sister publication.

“The damage [Gafni] has done to UTJ is huge,” the unnamed official added. “If he goes home, it will only benefit everyone. He has been getting on people’s nerves anyway lately.”

Coming to Gafni’s defense was UTJ MK Yitzhak Pindros, who said: “Yes, we invite political colleagues to happy occasions and we don’t call security if they, God forbid, start dancing.”

But Pindros also said that the Haredi public “will never forget and never forgive Michaeli… even if she joins the coalition [with Netanyahu] and even if she quits politics altogether.”

Over the past year, Michaeli has strongly advocated for public transportation on Shabbat, which Haredi parties strongly oppose. After failing to introduce reforms that would allow buses to operate on Shabbat, Michaeli has recently tried to promote a reform that would allow local authorities to operate taxi services on the Jewish day of rest.

Ketubah of Moe Howard from Three Stooges auctioned for $21,889



The Jewish marriage certificate of Moe Howard, the leader of the Three Stooges comedy group, fetched over $20,000 at an auction this week in Los Angeles.

Howard, whose real name was Moses Horwitz, in 1925 tied the knot in Brooklyn with Helen Schonburger, a cousin of magician Harry Houdini. She was later a scriptwriter for the Three Stooges after he briefly retired in 1926 at her urging when she became pregnant.

The marriage certificate, known as a ketubah, was sold for a final bid of $21,889.

According to a press release, Nate D. Sanders Auctions also sold a weathervane used on the couple’s home that Schonburger made for $24,079.

Additionally, it sold a pair of items that belonged to Howard’s younger brother Jerome Lester Horwitz, known by his stage name Curly Howard, who was also a member of the comedy group.

A 18 karat ring that he owned went for $10,456, while a deed he signed with the name “Jerome Horowitz” picked up $12,353.

The Three Stooges first rose to fame in the early 20th century with their short films, many of which included Hebrew or Yiddish terms in an ode to their Ashkenazi Jewish heritage.

Sicko Murders 2 Jews among others in Illinois

 

Sicko

A Jewish victim of Monday’s shooting in Highland Park has been identified.



The victim was identified as Jacki Sundheim, a lifelong member of North Shore Congregation Israel in Glencoe, Illinois.

A 22-year-old man identified as a person of interest in a shooting during an Independence Day parade in suburban Chicago that killed at least six people, wounded at least 30 and sent hundreds of people fleeing was taken into custody Monday evening following an hourslong manhunt, police said.

Highland Park Police Chief Lou Jogmen said Monday evening that a police officer briefly chased Robert E. Crimo III as he drove about five miles north of where the shooting occurred before the man pulled over and was taken into custody.

The July 4 shooting was just the latest to shatter the rituals of American life. Schools, churches, grocery stores and now community parades have all become killing grounds in recent months. This time, the bloodshed came as the nation tried to find cause to celebrate its founding and the bonds that still hold it together.

“It is devastating that a celebration of America was ripped apart by our uniquely American plague,” Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker said at a news conference.

“I’m furious because it does not have to be this way… while we celebrate the Fourth of July just once a year, mass shootings have become a weekly — yes, weekly — American tradition.”
