Israeli TV Mocking Rav Yosef threat That "He will Leave Israel and Move to Ungvar!"
Ungvar is in Ukraine! Jews who lived there before WW2 were practically all murdered by the Nazis, very few survived!
Someone tell R' Yosef, there is a war in Ungvar today!
Meir Fisher a Bachur from Beit Shemesh Killed in Car Accident on Way Back from Kever Yosef
Beit Shemesh has a new mayor. Too bad his campaign violated Torah law and values in order to win.

On Sunday, the people of Beit Shemesh elected a new mayor, Shmuel Greenberg. He is affiliated with the ultra-Orthodox Degel HaTorah political party, and he defeated the incumbent mayor, Aliza Bloch, who is Orthodox but not part of the Chareidie world. The election wasn’t particularly close; Greenberg won 58% of the vote. It’s hardly likely that last-minute electioneering saved him from defeat. Greenberg won and was always going to win. So why did some rabbis, ostensibly in the name of Torah values, resort to slander in order to ensure his election? |
Dems turn Biden-documents hearing into 3 Stooges theater
Special Counsel Robert Hur was in the hot seat for four hours Tuesday as President Biden’s congressional allies sought to destroy him for doubting Biden’s intellect.
They had no case. And instead, they turned the event into Three Stooges-caliber theater.
Hur’s report last month concluded that Biden had “willfully retained and disclosed classified materials” — violations of federal law.
But Hur said that prosecuting him would be dicey because jurors could view Biden as an “elderly man with poor memory.”
The House Judiciary Committee hearing on Hur’s report was only about “Republicans trying to re-elect the former white supremacist-in-chief,” according to Rep. Cori Bush (D-Mo.).
Fixating on Biden’s document shenanigans could aid Trump and cause the worldwide triumph of tyranny, wailed Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.). Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-Calif.) derided Hur as a Republican bootlicker hoping to get a prize appointment if Trump is re-elected.
One Democrat after another put Hur into a headlock and jammed words into his mouth.
When Hur objected to Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-Wash.) claiming his report exonerated Biden, she cut him off: “Mr. Hur, it is my time.”
Democrats, veering toward full “Manchurian Candidate,” seemed ready to recite with glazed eyes: “Joe Biden is the kindest, bravest, warmest, most wonderful human being I’ve ever known in my life.”
Biden needs plenty of sycophants because of his hypocrisy, legal violations and brazen falsehoods.
After the FBI raided Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home to seize classified documents in August 2022, Biden said he was stunned that “anyone could be that irresponsible.”
After Hur’s report came out, Biden declared.
“I did not share classified information.”
Biden claimed that all the classified stuff “in my home was in filing cabinets that were either locked or able to be locked.”
But Hur testified that those claims were “inconsistent with our findings.”
Yesterday's Hearing in Congress Shows Partisanship has Corrupted the Department of Justice.
Most congressional hearings shed far more heat than light, but the testimony of special counsel Robert Hur was a welcome exception.
Yes, there was plenty of heat, but in the end, viewers witnessed a clear demonstration of how partisanship has corrupted the Department of Justice.
They also saw that Democrats are not troubled by that rank favoritism as long as their guy gets a free pass and the other guy gets nailed.
There are many causes for the deep polarization gripping America, but one of the most important is the contrasting ways Donald Trump and Joe Biden have been treated for their alleged mishandling of classified documents.
Trump faces a 40-count federal indictment, while Biden gets off scot-free despite a finding that he improperly kept and used such documents for 40 years.
On its face, the disparate treatment smacks of a double standard, especially because no former president had ever been indicted for anything after leaving office.
That history created a formidable barrier, but Jack Smith, the prober assigned to Trump, was bulldog-aggressive and treated him like a common criminal, complete with a surprise FBI raid on Mar-a-Lago.
On the other hand, Hur, assigned to Biden’s case, was far more restrained and respectful of whom he was dealing with.
“Believe the Antisemites when they say they want to Wipe out the Jewish People.”
Antisemites like Ken Roth, ‘as-a-Jews’ like Jonathan Glazer, and even non-antisemites like US President Joe Biden are lecturing Israel on the lessons Israel should learn from the Holocaust and the Second World War, but their ‘lessons’ would have prolonged the war, left Hitler in power, and led to more Jews being murdered in gas chambers.
There’s a lot that can be learned from the Holocaust and World War II as a whole. There are lessons in the bravery of some and the cowardice of others. There is so much to be learned from how Hitler was allowed to start another World War and commit a crime so great a new word had to be developed to describe it, "genocide", as well as how he was finally defeated.
People seem to love to try to apply these lessons to Jews and the Jewish State, Israel, especially in the aftermath of the Hamas massacre of October 7, the worst massacre committed against the Jewish people since the Holocaust. But the lessons they want Israel to learn would not have stopped World War II or saved a single one of the six million Jews who were murdered by the Nazis and their collaborators.
On Sunday, during the Academy Awards, Writer/director Jonathan Glazer used his acceptance speech for Best International Picture to attack Israel using the supposed “lessons” of the Holocaust and even “renounced” his Jewishness.
White House attempts to walk back Biden's "Red Line" comments on Israel
The White House on Tuesday attempted to walk back comments made by President Joe Biden over the weekend saying that an Israeli offensive of Rafah would be a “red line” for him.
In a Saturday interview on MSNBC, Biden said that an Israeli invasion of Rafah would be a red line but also said in the same breath that crossing it would not result in punitive measures against Israel.
“It is a red line, but I am never going to leave Israel,” Biden said. “The defense of Israel is still critical, so there’s no red line I’m going to cut off all weapons.”
Speaking at a news briefing on Tuesday, National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan told reporters, “The President didn't make any declarations or pronouncements or announcements. The red line came up in a question he was responding to that question. I think he gave a full answer to it.”
Pressed on the issue by CNN’s MJ Lee, Sullivan appeared to blame the media for turning the idea of a red line into a “national security parlor game for the President.”
“He's really focused on the substance, on the policy on his concern about the protection of civilians, and about Israel being able to sustain a campaign in a way that ultimately leads to an outcome in which the people of Israel are secure. Hamas is crushed and there is a long-term solution to stability and peace in the region,” said Sullivan.
Netanyahu responded to Biden on Sunday, telling Politico, "I don't know exactly what the President meant, but if he meant by that that I'm pursuing private policies against the majority, the wish of the majority of Israelis, and that this is hurting the interests of Israel, then he's wrong on both counts."
