In a rare op-ed, the former Prime Minister beseeches the Charedim to stay united.

 


Out of fear of a split between the factions of the haredi United Torah Judaism (UTJ) party, former Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has published a rare op-ed in the haredi newspaper Merkaz Ha'inyanim, calling for haredi Judaism to stay united.

Under the headline "Our strength is in our unity", Netanyahu writes, "The nation of Israel's strength as a nation is in its interpersonal relationships. The nation of Israel wins when it's united."

According to the front page article, "We need to learn from that in our time too, when enemies, both from within and from the outside, come to hurt us."

Netanyahu also calls on yeshiva students and says, "From the honorable platform which this newspaper is, I call the yeshiva students, sages, who will soon renew their studies, the people of Israel are proud of you and your studies, continue to be united, we are all brothers."

The former Prime Minister concludes his article by writing, "Throughout my life, I fought, and I am still fighting, to ensure that those that want to destroy us, fail. We must continue to be united so we can continue protecting the nation of Israel and the land of Israel."

Netanyahu's op-ed comes on the heels of discussions surrounding a split between the Degel HaTorah and Agudat Yisrael factions that make up UTJ, the party that represents the Ashkenazi (Jews of European descent) haredi community. A split in UTJ can considerably weaken the former Prime Minister's right-wing bloc.

Zera Shimshon Parshas Eikav

 

Watch Hillary Clinton get caught with 1000's of highly classified documents hidden on a server in her house and the FBI director saying that no one would would ever prosecute her for it:

 

Mordechai Schlesinger 18 Drowns

 


In a tragic accident which occurred at the Kinneret Wednesday evening, an 18-year-old boy drowned at the separate beach near the tomb of Rabbi Meir Baal Hanes.

The boy, Mordechai Schlesinger from Bnei Brak, was missing for an hour until he was located in the water and brought in critical condition to the beach, where emergency personnel attempted to resuscitate him. He was taken to the nearby hospital where he was declared dead.

Schlesinger was born in 2004 in Bnei Brak. His father, R’Yechezkel Schlesinger, who was present at the beach, serves as a mashgiach in the yeshiva of Beer Hatalmud in Elad and his mother is a member of the Finkelstein family in Bnei Brak. Mordechai studied in the Chemed yeshiva and later in Netivot Chochma, a yeshiva in Bayit V’gan, Jerusalem.

His friends described a wonderful personality who was loved by everyone and sat and studied at all times, including during Bein Hazmanim and other holidays as well as during breaks in the yeshiva schedule. He exuded joy of life and calmness but his learning was fiery and full of excitement.

הלווית הבחור מרדכי שלזינגר ז"ל

In a tear-filled levaya, Mordechai was taken from his parent’s home in Bnei Brak to Elad, where he was buried. His father said that he would awaken every morning and study without speaking (Taanis Dibbur). Rabbi Dunner from the Divrei Shir shul in Bnei Brak where he studied testified to his diligence and said that “the walls of the Beis Midrash prove that even in the last week of Bein Hazmanim he was studying.”

Al Franken the Disgusting Self-Hating Jew Lies that Trump Made an "antisemitic Comment..ADL Silent


 Al Franken, the disgraced former comedian-turned-senator, falsely claimed on Twitter that President Trump made disparaging comments against Jews.

In addition, the responses to Franken’s tweet make it clear that many people took him seriously. Astonishingly, the tweet exposes that Franken, a Jew, is bigoted against his own people.

The real question is, where is the ADL? Once again, the group who claims its mission is to protect Jews from antisemitism, has chosen to protect liberal antisemites and throw Jews under the bus.

200 Charedim enlist in IDF

 

Around 200 young Charedi men converged on the Tel Hashomer recruitment center in central Israel on Tuesday, to begin their IDF service.

The new recruits are to be integrated into important positions in the military, most of them are enlisting in combat units in tracks that are specially dedicated to them in the Netzach Yehuda battalion, the Tomer company of the Givati Brigade, the Hetz company of the Paratrooper Brigade and the Air Force.

In addition to the combat soldiers, recruits also joined the "Shahar" track, which integrates the soldiers in a number of non-combat positions in the Ground Force Command, the Communications Corps, and the intelligence branch. They will serve in the IDF for two years, after which they will complete their matriculation exams and begin academic studies.

Throughout the recruitment process and their military service, all Charedi recruits are accompanied by the army's Charedi administration.

"We welcome the new recruits with open arms," Charedi administration head Amir Zuzut told the recruits. "These are top young men, who decided to dedicate the next few years of their lives to the Nation of Israel and the State of Israel."


Large portions of history to be left out of Israeli curriculum

 

Wow! They may as well be a Chareidie Yeshiva, they don't learn these things either!

They don't learn about the Holocaust, Tanach, Mazada etc. Nada!

They do learn about the destructions of both Bais Hamikdash but really don't know any details. This Tisha Be'ov I heard a Yeshivisha speaker speak about the Churban, but what he said was so amateurish, he probably got his stuff a comic book. 

In accordance with the reform in Israel's standardized matriculation exams, which will take effect in September, the material taught in the nation's high schools will be cut drastically. As part of the cut, the chapter that discusses the Second Temple Period in Jewish history will be completely removed from the curriculum.

According to a report in Haaretz, high school students will no longer learn about the following topics: the Babylonian exile, Cyrus's proclamation, Ezra and Nehemia, the Second Temple, Hellenism, Antiochus' decrees, and the Hasmonean, Masada, and Bar Kokhba revolts.

Attorney Racheli Sinkin, who is running in the Religious Zionism party primaries, commented: "In a few years no child will understand why the State of Israel is any better than Berlin. Our job is to return the Tanakh (Bible, Prophets, and Writings), Jewish identity, and history to the curriculum, otherwise we won't be here!"

Earlier this year a major reform in matriculation exams was announced. According to the reform, students will no longer be required to take 12 to 14 matriculation exams, but only four to five. The subjects in which students will be tested in external exams will be English, mathematics, another language, and an elective. A student will also be able to take another elective if he or she chooses to do so, for example, science or computer science.

With the exception of those external exams, other subjects such as Bible, literature, history, civics, and more will be taught within the schools and the examination will take place internally. At the same time, the standard that students will be required to meet will be particularly high.

Is Trump Going to Jail?????

 

Trump Posts Spoof Endorsement of the Bobover Dan Goldman but Radical Leftist Opponent Takes it Seriously

 




On Wednesday, President Trump sarcastically posted on Truth Social that it is his “great honor to Strongly Endorse” the Bobover endorsed,  Dan Goldman for NY’s 10th congressional district, in an apparent effort to mock him.


However Yuh-Line Niou, a BDS supporting liberal, bought into the spoof endorsement and believed Trump was serious. When Twitter users challenged her, she doubled down.

Trump’s spoof endorsement said: “Lawyer Dan Goldman is running for Congress, NY-10, and it is my great honor to Strongly Endorse him. I do this not because of the fact that he headed up the Impeachment Committee and lost, but because he was honorable, fair, and highly intelligent. While it was my honor to beat him, and beat him badly, Dan Goldman has a wonderful future ahead. He will be very compassionate and compromising to those within the Republican Party, and will do everything possible to make sure they have a fair chance at winning against the Radical Left Democrats, who he knows are destroying our Country. I would like to thank Dan for fighting so hard for America, and for working so tirelessly to stop ‘Trump.’ He was not easy to beat, but winning against him made me realize just how very talented I am!”

Opposing candidate Yuh-Line Niou seemed to take the fake endorsement seriously, tweeting, “Donald Trump just endorsed my multi-millionaire opponent, in case you needed a reminder of what the stakes are. #NY10, choose your fighter.”

Meanwhile a group of Lower East Side pandering Rabbis have endorsed Dan Goldman for Congress. In addition, President Trump released a spoof endorsement of the prosecutor who led his first impeachment.

As reported in Hamodia, the Lower East Side Rabbis Coalition released a letter saying: “We strongly urge all members of our community to vote in the Congressional primary next Tuesday, August 23rd for Dan Goldman.”

The group consists of Rabbi Mayer Friedman, Rabbi Yissachar Ginsberg, Rabbi Yosef Tuvia Horowitz, Rabbi Zvi Room and Rabbi Shmuel Spiegel.

Goldman also got the endorsements of more than twenty Chassidic groups and yeshivas in NY’s District 10, as well as Assemblyman Simcha "langeh rekel" Eichenstein.

The letter listed Goldman’s specific policies which the rabbis support. “We look forward to Dan Goldman’s overwhelming support of Israel, the only true democracy in the Middle East. Additionally, we believe Dan Goldman will help us strengthen and secure our community and we are confident that he will do all he can to ensure that our community does not suffer ill effects due to congestion pricing.”
