With Blinken in Tel Aviv, 7,000 IDF Mothers Protest US Interference in War


  A group composed of some 7,000 mothers of Israeli soldiers fighting in the Gaza Strip held up huge posters depicting the children of senior U.S. officials as IDF recruits during a protest in front of U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken’s Tel Aviv hotel on Tuesday.

The message: 

What if it were your children fighting in the Gaza Strip? Would you continue to demand the resupply of the enemy?

The group behind the protest, Imahot HaLohamim (“Mothers of Combat Soldiers”) is demanding an end to U.S. pressure on Israel.

“Our message is very simple. Our soldiers’ lives have to come first and foremost, and be prioritized over those of enemy civilians,” Mirit Hoffman, the group’s spokesperson, told JNS.

Blinken to Israel: You Must Die So a Palestinian State May Live

 

The Biden administration, like many before it, is your rich American uncle who suffers from halitosis. He keeps padding your pockets with much-needed cash (or much-needed arms and ammunition), but sooner or later he’ll kiss you.

A case in point is Secretary of State Antony Blinken’s press conference Tuesday night, when, after going through the motions about the Hamas atrocities, the humanitarian crisis in Gaza, and the need to bring back the hostages (reminder: the American hostages were kept in Tehran for 444 days, from 1979 to 1981, and the US couldn’t release them – they tried and failed), the Secretary treated us to this:

“Finally, we continue to discuss how to build a more durable peace and security for Israel within the region. As I told the prime minister, every partner that I met on this trip said that they’re ready to support a lasting solution that ends the long-running cycle of violence and ensures Israel’s security. But they underscored that this can only come through a regional approach that includes a pathway to a Palestinian state.”

That is a lie. Instead of trying for the umpteenth time a solution that started failing back in 1936, and came crashing down many different times with dire consequences for both Arabs and Jews, a durable peace and security could be achieved faster and with far fewer casualties with immigration. It worked for refugees from North Africa, Syria, Iraq, India, Pakistan, and Vietnam: millions of suffering people in crisis areas are absorbed by wealthy countries, and within a generation become thriving, industrious members of their new home countries. This could resolve the humanitarian crisis in Gaza practically overnight – but no…

Social media rips San FranSicko board for dancing, clapping after passing resolution calling for Gaza cease-fire

 

Pro-Israel social media users mocked a video showing happy San Francisco Board of Supervisors members celebrating their recent vote to pass a resolution calling for a cease-fire between Israel and Hamas.

The city’s board voted 8-3 on Tuesday to pass a resolution calling for a sustained cease-fire in Israel’s war on Hamas. The conflict started as a response to the terror group’s massacre of Israelis on Oct. 7.

Poiskim Looking Into The Kohler bidet that takes verbal orders and will make a splash in the toilet market — here’s the straight poop... Can You Use it on Shabbos?


Since this is activated by "voice" serious poiskim are "klering" if one can utilize this on Shabbos. Others are "teitiching up" that this could be "muktza machmas meeus."  Still others want to "taaneh" that this is "psik reisha de'neecha lei" but this was "shlooged up" by a Lakewood "alter bocher" who said that all this is "not the reid" since its definitely not "reisha" its actually "tachton" and we don't have this "klall" of "psik tachton de'neecha lei." It could be an "issur" of "Kol Isha" since women will use it too. but "kol isha" is not shayich by halachos of Shabbos.The "daf ha'Yoiminickers are klerring what the "tolda" would be with this bidet, but if the "Av" wasn't determined yet, how can we have a "tolda?" The Christians would "mistaameh" answer that you can have a "tolda without an av, its called the "Immaculate conception." 

Butt it seems, and I was going over all the "nosei keilim," that all are "maskim" that you would need to make "shiur Chazon Ish" and in this case this would actually be a "kuleh"

"Bottom" line is that this is a "shverre sugye" that kollel guys will be "me'ayin" in the weeks to come.

"Ve'Tzurich Eeyun"

A new artificially intelligent bidet responding to verbal commands aims to make a splash in the toilet market.

Promising a squeaky clean, “hands-free” experience, Kohler’s PureWash E930 is a sentient piece of potty technology that can be vocally activated — via Amazon Alexa or Google Home — to emit a sprinkling of water, air dry your unmentionables, and even activate an ultraviolet-powered self-cleaning mode.

The bowel-blasting breakthrough, spotted at CES 2024, is also equipped with a heated seat, motion activation, and automated deodorization, along with being “ergonomically” shaped for a comfy session.

Butt there’s a catch — the rather steep starting price of $2,149.

Kohler’s latest innovation is, however, good clean fun for the whole family, thanks to a safe mode that can be activated for children, according to marketing manager Maria Evraets.

“That allows even the youngest of users to experience an enhanced clean,” Evraets told The Post.

The tush tickler, which can be preset via the Kholer Konnect app, is currently available in white and biscuit and will be made available in black by late February.

“A unique challenge with PureWash E930 is that our team was focused on developing a really slim profile, which required some creative engineering to fit all of the mechanics of a bidet into a much smaller footprint,” Evraets said.

PureWash E930 is also designed for its bowl to be “automatically misted prior to use for more effective rinsing while flushing,” according to the company.

The royal flush also includes dual front and rear “wash modes” with adjustable pressure and temperature settings.

There is also an LED light for nighttime use along with a quiet close feature, to prevent seat slamming.

The seat also detaches for swift and “convenient cleaning.”
