Rabbis slam Tlaib: ‘Lies from Nazi Germany do not belong in US Congress’

 

Palestinian-American congresswoman Rashida Tlaib (D-MI), reacting to House Speaker Kevin McCarthy’s friendly visit to Israel this week, posted a vicious comment on social media against the Jewish state from her official government account.

It was certainly not the first time that Tlaib, widely considered to be antisemitic, called Israel an “apartheid state,” along with other lies.

This time, on Monday, she tweeted:

“Speaker McCarthy wants to rewrite history but the apartheid state of Israel was born out of violence and the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians. 75 years later, the Nakba continues to this day.”

In response, Rabbi Yoel Schonfeld, President of the Coalition for Jewish Values, issued the following statement:

“The violence at Israel’s formation was the “War of Extermination” declared by the Secretary-General of the Arab League, promising to do to the Jews in the Holy Land what Hitler had done in Europe. And the ethnic cleansing was of Jews from Arab states, over 850,000 driven from their homes, the majority of whom found refuge in Israel.

“By contrast, the Arab population of Israel has grown more than tenfold since 1948,” he noted.

“It is beyond vile to falsely accuse the victims of ethnic cleansing of being its perpetrators. But it is not unprecedented: in Nazi Germany, Julius Streicher described Jews as bacteria feeding upon others. It should not need to be said, but rhetoric from Nazi Germany does not belong in Congress,” Schonfeld concluded.

The Coalition for Jewish Values represents over 2,000 traditional, Orthodox rabbis as the largest rabbinic public policy organization in America.

The Yesha Council, representing Jewish communities in Judea and Samaria, also condemned Tlaib’s tweet but took a different angle, blaming Twitter CEO Elon Musk for making the social media platform a place where she could bash “the only democracy in the Middle East.”

Chareidim in Beit Shemesh "BET" Harass Frum Lady Dressed Tznisdik

 

Tam Aharon, an Israeli comedian decided to take a look at the "anti-tznuah" graffiti in Beit Shemesh "Bet" the area where the "bet-bugs" the extremists live. The "Bet- Bugs" have no clue who Tam Aharon is and what he does for a living. He brought along a frum lady who was dressed with a shaitel and was tzneesdik, but that didn't stop the "bugs" from screaming "shiksa" and "get out of here" at them. 

This was in middle of the day, and you would think that the adults would be in Bais Medresh learning, because they by-in-large do not work, but watching the video you notice they just hang out waiting for someone who doesn't look like them to pounce on them like a cat on a mouse. 

Usually they spit and throw glass bottles at women who don't look like their fat obese wives, but it isn't captured on video, but the comedian brought along a camera crew, and that's how we have the footage

Later in the day, the comedian quipped:

 - 'It went well all in all'.

Smotrich seizes funds from PA, transfers them to victims of terrorism

 

Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich on Wednesday ordered the Director of the Israel Tax Authority, Eran Yaacov, to transfer an amount of 3.2 million shekels from the Palestinian Authority's funds to victims of terrorism.

This follows the 138.8 million shekels that were transferred in January to the victims of terrorist acts in order to fulfill a court ruling from the past.

Minister Smotrich said, "I signed on to the offset of the terrorist funds that the Palestinian Authority transfers to the families of terrorists. We deducted 3.2 million shekels which will be transferred as compensation to the families of victims of terrorism."

"The State of Israel stops the financing of terrorism by the Palestinian Authority. We will not allow this absurd situation to happen," he added.

PA officials have remained defiant and have made clear that the PA will never cease paying terrorists' salaries.

Ezra Where Are You?? Your Girlfriend Tlaib is Spewing Hate Against Jews

Squad member Rashida Tlaib got slammed by Twitter’s “”Community Notes” fact-check feature, after the Muslim Congresswoman spread lies about Israel and Kevin McCarthy.

Tlaib tweeted, “Speaker McCarthy wants to rewrite history but the apartheid state of Israel was born out of violence and the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians. 75 years later, the Nakba continues to this day.”

Tlaib’s vicious tweet coincided with Speaker McCarthy’s historic Israel visit in which he spoke at the Knesset and bestowed praise on Israel, was instantly greeted by Twitter notes pointing out several “errors’ ‘.

The fact-check points out that Israel was created by a UN General Assembly Resolution.

It also noted that the “ethnic cleansing” Tlaib claimed happened “affected both Jewish and Arab communities caught up in the war initiated by 5 Arab states who opposed the existence of Israel.”

The final note pointed out that Israel has over 20% Arab citizens who have “full and equal rights.”

50 Israeli Supreme Court Scary Decisions.. show more than any essay could why Israel needs judicial reform ASAP

 

There are many reasons for effecting judicial reform in Israel, not the least of them the way Supreme Court judges are chosen and the absolute power held by the unelected legal advisor to the Prime Minister (who also functions as the attorney general) and the legal advisors to the government ministries. Add the absence of a demand for standing, the fact that everything, including religious, military and economic decisions can be (and are) adjudicated in the courts, the fact that a justice's opinion of the "reasonableness" of an issue allows him to strike it down and that all of the above are particular to Israel.

However, there is a more basic reason change is needed, a factor that the current liberal makeup of the courts does not deem worthy of taking into account. And as long as new justices are chosen by the current ones, in a process that seems almost like cloning, that will not change:

srael's justices must first and foremost take into account that Israel is a Jewish state.

They must take into account that Israel has been battling since its establishment against barbaric and cruel enemies.

They must realize how many families have offspring in the army and what kind of split second decisions young soldiers in danger have to make.

They must see to it that Israel is a place where procedures and regulations that can save Jewish lives, both of soldiers and civilians, are in a special category.

Israel should be a place where those who lift a hand against its Jewish citizens because they are Jewish know they will be punished swiftly and severely.

Israel should be a place where the right of each Jewish citizen to live according to halakha if he so wishes is sacrosanct.

Israel should be a place where every effort is made to find legal ways to uphold settling the land of our fathers, including Judea and Samaria, since this is government policy.

When the Satmar Rebbe Mocked Jews Going to Meron on Lag Beomer Said it's "not a mesorah at all"

This was way back in 1995, when R' Aron Teitelbaum,the Satmar Rebbe of Monroe, was upset that his entire community got up and left to fly to the Zionist country on Lag Beomer, and he was left with hardly a minyan. He first banned and threatened to throw out any bochur who flew to the Zionists for Lag Beomer, but they left anyway. 

In the video below given in Yiddish he mocks and ridicules those who find the Lag Beomer rituals sacred! He asks "is there halachos on high or how many stories the pyre has to be? How many pieces of wood is required? How long does it have to burn?"

It didn't take too long before he took a 360 degree turn and made up his own festivities, halachos and minhagim!

Rabbi Harold Kushner, author of ‘When Bad Things Happen to Good People,’ dies at 88

 

 Many years ago I read his book, because this question is something that frum people quietly ask themselves, not in a public forum, not wanting to brand themselves "apikorsim." I heard this discussed in shul by survivors who were dragged thru hell just a few years prior. I heard this question come up in very frum Shiva houses. This is discussed openly in kaballa seforim and no one accuses them of being "apikorsim." 

But the question is a lot stronger than their answers.

So because of my curiosity of what Kushner would say, I read the book cover to cover as it is very easy reading.

It seems that Harold Kushner a Conservative or Reform rabbi lost a child and because of this loss he decided to put pen to paper and take a shot at it. 

I was very disappointed with his answer. He did find comfort in his answer, but I found it very disturbing.

He basically tells people who have had a tragedy such as losing a child, not to take it personally, since Hashem is not the one who masterminded this, since Hashem doesn't target you or your family personally, Hashem, according to his hypotheses, lets the world run its course with absolutely no intervention (chas ve'sholom), and therefore events like the Holocaust and pogroms happen. It left me asking myself, how did Kushner find any comfort in that?

A frum Jew that goes through an enormous tragedy such as losing a child doesn't want to hear that Hashem just "walked away, and let the world just happen." I don't think that he gets any comfort in that. He wants to know that there was a divine purpose for this child to be born, to this particular family , and that  this child was given x amount of years to fulfill his or her mission and tasks in this world and that Hashem is actually the One orchestrating all this and that this is all part of His plan. Knowing that it was not just a "coincidence" but was part of a greater plan, does give some comfort to the grieving family, the fact that Kushner didn't believe in this, is very sad, and it is even sadder, knowing that his book was a best seller, meaning that many people who were looking for answers may have found this book still wanting.

May Hashem comfort all those who have had these losses!

Rabbi Harold Kushner, one of the most influential congregational rabbis of the 20th century whose works of popular theology reached millions of people outside the synagogue, has died.

Kushner, who turned 88 on April 3, died Friday in Canton, Massachusetts, just miles from the synagogue where he had been rabbi laureate for more than three decades.

Kushner’s fairly conventional trajectory as a Conservative rabbi was altered shortly after arriving at Temple Israel of Natick when, on the day his daughter Ariel was born, his 3-year-old son Aaron was diagnosed with a fatal premature aging condition, progeria.

Meah Shearim Residents Hang Palestinian Flags all over Their Neighborhoods

 

These flags represent murderers, rapists and animals, yet Meah Shearim residents allowed those flags to hang an entire week. Not one resident, not one, protested this and not one removed this disgusting display of hate against their fellow Jews. To these tzaddikim, the Palestinian flag represents their philosophy of wanting to live under a Palestinian government.  

And the truth is that they actually can, they can move to Ramallah which is a part of Eretz Yisrael, but these hypocritical liars wouldn't do that because they know that in less than an hour the Palestinians would behead each and every one of them not even giving them a chance to line up to get on the cattle cars. 

I have the solution to this "Meah Seharim" problem, and whoever I talk to about this are very excited. 

I propose that the IDF take them all on buses and ship them just less than a mile away into Ir David now called Silwan, and bring in developers into Meah Shearim, raze the entire area and build Hi-Risers.!

It's a win win sutuation!

Police officers on Sunday raided the Mea Shearim neighborhood of Jerusalem after Palestinian flags were hung in the neighborhood as well as sprayed on the walls of the neighborhood.

The police officers led Jerusalem municipality employees to the places where the flags were hung and protected them as they removed them using ladders and painted over flags sprayed on neighborhood walls.
