This fool with curly hair on the side of his face says (in Hebrew, LOL) that Israel doesn't need an army as it is against the Torah to have an army!
Though if this huge am-haartz would only open a Tanach he would see that in every single page the Tanach talks about Jews in the army!
Chareidim have excused Religious Zionist Jews for having their children enlist in the IDF, saying that they are really "Tinuk Sh'Nishba," in other words, one shouldn't blame them for "going off the derech" (they are all Shoimer Torah Umitzvois, but not according to Chareidim) since they cannot help themselves as "they don't know any better."
Well, Harav Stav Shlitah, a huge Talmid Chachem dished out the same medicine to them, calling Chareidim ......"Tinuk Sh'Nishbah" and to no one's surprise, Charedim are going ape!
Take out the popcorn!
Seven of the 16 murdered in the Jerusalem blast were children. One was my daughter Malki, 15, killed as she waited in line to order lunch.
The United States has failed for more than a decade to enforce the extradition of the bragging jihadist who faces trial in Washington for what she calls “my operation.”
Ahlam Tamimi, a native Jordanian, walked free from an Israeli prison as part of a 2011 deal the Jewish state was extorted to do with Hamas. She has since lived a life of celebrity in Jordan.
But President Trump can bring justice to a murdered American.
Consider whom Jordan harbors.
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) on Saturday blasted Israel and claimed that the Jewish state is using US military aid “to pay for genocide” in the Gaza Strip.
In a lengthy post on X, Greene wrote, “If America was being bombed day and night because of something horrific our government did, and many innocent Americans and American children were being killed and traumatically injured, and we begged for mercy, but the rest of the world said, ‘Americans voted for their government so they deserve it, their government is bad so all Americans are bad, therefore this is what they get and must be done…’ how would you feel? What would you think? What would you do?”
“This is what is happening to Gaza where in spite of what we have all been told, many innocent people and children are being killed and they are not Hamas,” she claimed.
“Does Hamas deserve it? Yes. Do innocent people and children deserve it? No,” added Green, who asked why people do not have the same “compassion for the masses of innocent people and children in Gaza” as they had for victims of Hamas’s October 7, 2023, massacre in Israel.
“America funds Israel $3.8 billion annually for military aid. Actually correction. US taxpayers fund Israel $3.8 billion annually for military aid,” she claimed, adding, “That means every US tax payer is contributing to Israel’s military actions.”
“I don’t know about you, but I don’t want to pay for genocide in a foreign country against a foreign people for a foreign war that I had nothing to do with. And I will not be silent about it,” stated Greene.
This is not the first time that Greene has claimed that Israel’s actions in Gaza amount to genocide. She made a similar assertion in a post at the end of July.
“It’s the most truthful and easiest thing to say that Oct. 7 in Israel was horrific and all hostages must be returned, but so is the genocide, humanitarian crisis, and starvation happening in Gaza,” she wrote at the time.
Previously, the US House of Representatives voted to reject an amendment proposed by Greene which called for the slashing of half a billion dollars in aid to Israel.
In 2018, Greene wrote a Facebook post that blamed the Rothschild family for starting wildfires in California using a laser from space.
In 2021, Greene caused an uproar after she compared a supermarket’s decision to add a logo to the badges of vaccinated workers to the yellow stars that Jews were forced to wear in Nazi-occupied Europe.
She later toured the US Holocaust Memorial Museum and apologized for the comparison.
National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir published a video statement on Sunday, calling on the leaders of the coalition factions to clarify that MK Benny Gantz and his Blue and White party will not join the government.
"We made great achievements without Gantz against Iran, we made great achievements without Gantz with Hezbollah, we made achievements on several fronts. And if we want to make achievements in Gaza, Benny Gantz can not join the government."
On Saturday night, Blue and White chairman MK Benny Gantz called for the formation of a temporary emergency government focused on returning the hostages and drafting a fair national service plan, including for the haredim.
Gantz proposed that the emergency government - dubbed the “Hostage Recovery Government” - would serve for six months, culminating in general elections
New Square askanim sat down with R’ Shabbos and promised a resolution within two weeks. That deadline came and went, not once, but several times, with nothing. In the meantime, more homes were quietly purchased and converted into SROs. It’s the same stall tactic they’ve played before, and this time the community refused to sit back.
Complaints were escalated, patrols increased, and when agencies began digging into the addresses we flagged, the truth became impossible to ignore: the ownership trail all led back to New Square. Under pressure, officials reached out to New Square leadership. And that’s when the mask slipped.
Mendel Berger, widely seen as the enforcer of the “air-mile exclusion zone,” called R’ Schabes in a fury, screaming “Mesirah.” Soon after, a 6½-minute Yiddish recording surfaced (not from Mendel), dripping with curses and vulgarity directed at anyone daring to speak out.
Then came the latest move: a letter being spread by Avrohom Hersh Eisenberger (son of the Skver Dayan) with the names of three Rabbanim, declaring that the issue belongs in Beis Din. It was quickly exposed. Both Community Connections Magazine and The Monsey View checked with Ichud Kehillos Rockland, and confirmed that the letter was not approved. The publishing houses refused to print it, further exposing the tactics at play. We thank these publications for verifying the letters in the name of our Rabbanim before publication.
Skver askanim plead, stop the lashon hara. But conveniently ignore and forgot that hurting Yiddishe families in many ways including deliberately planting pritzus in our streets, bringing crime into once safe neighborhoods is not ok and it is asur!
On September 15th, the Town of Ramapo will hold a public hearing on whether to hand over more properties to New Square. With every expansion comes the creeping spread of the “air mile policy”, a deliberate effort to push out Yidden and make entire neighborhoods Yidden free.
As long as the exclusion zone exists and is enforced, we cannot allow the Village of New Skver to expand.
The stall game is ending. And our escalation is only just beginning!!!
A study released by the University of Haifa showed that silver functioned as money in the Land of Israel as early as 3,600 years ago, roughly 1,500 years before the first coins.
Published in Journal of World Prehistory, the research drew on a systematic analysis of Bronze- and Iron-Age silver hoards and indicated that a market economy flourished in the region earlier than previously believed.
The team led by Dr. Tzilla Eshkol of the university’s School of Archaeology and Maritime Cultures reviewed dozens of hoards dated from the 20th to the 6th centuries BCE. Although the area lacked natural silver deposits, the study documented numerous hoards that pointed to a sustained silver economy.
The study implies that silver played an economic role for about 1,500 years. By the 17th century BCE, weighed pieces already served as systematic currency in Israel, earlier than comparable evidence from Egypt or Greece.
Researchers assessed each hoard by burial date, architectural context, socioeconomic setting, and contents. Items ranged from standardized ingots to broken jewelry and cut pieces clearly meant to be weighed in trade. The frequency of broken or clipped items showed that the metal was valued for its weight rather than adornment.
Roughly 230 objects from 19 hoards underwent chemical testing to trace changes in purity. Early samples were largely pure, but from the 12th to the 10th centuries BCE alloys containing copper and arsenic appeared - possible attempts to reduce value or mask declining purity.
“Although there were no coins, silver was in regular use as a means of payment that people saved for future transactions,” said Eshkol. “The first coins were invented only in the 7th century BCE, but principles of a monetary system operated here hundreds of years earlier - with standards of uniformity, control of value, and even phenomena of counterfeiting.”
The investigation challenged earlier views that Near-Eastern silver hoards were jeweler surplus or foundation offerings; instead they functioned as active payment. Trade-oriented hoards from Shiloh and Gezer confirmed early use of weighed silver. A brief shift to gold occurred in the Late Bronze Age, but silver again dominated from the 13th century BCE onward.
Storage patterns also evolved: hoards were first hidden in public buildings and later in private homes during the Iron Age, showing silver’s penetration into daily life. From the 12th century BCE, the number of hoards, their geographic spread, and total metal weight all rose, signaling the expansion of a market economy.
“The continuous use of silver indicates an economy that developed gradually from within the society itself,” emphasized Eshkol. By tracing purity shifts and occasional counterfeiting across fifteen centuries, the Haifa team provided evidence that monetary principles were firmly established in the Land of Israel long before coins appeared.

A Jewish nurse from Long Island claims bosses at NYU Langone Hospital in Mineola reprimanded her and cut her pay after she voiced support for Israel, according to a lawsuit.
Staff nurse Leviah Ehrlich posted on her private Instagram after Hamas terrorists killed 1,200 people in their surprise Oct. 7, 2023 attack on Israel.
“You either stand with Israel or you stand with terrorism,” Ehrlich, 27, wrote in a message that included two symbols: the Star of David and the emblem of terror group Hamas
A second post the same day included a photo of an Israeli soldier kidnapped by Hamas — who happened to be her former high school classmate, she said in court papers.
About a month later, the hospital’s human resources reps hauled her in and claimed someone complained about Ehrlich’s post for being “wrought with bias and hatred,” she said in the Brooklyn Federal Court filing.
In December, they summoned her again and gave a written warning — and forced her to make an apology post using their “prescribed language” — which included phrases like “innocent people from both Israel and Palestine,” she said in legal papers.
Adding the ultimate insult, NYU Langone bosses waited until January to tell Ehrlich that her post would cost her a $6,000 raise she’d been given a month before the Hamas attack — and that she would have “to repay the compensation previously awarded.”
Ehlrich, who was asked to give back more than $11,000 to her employer, “did not engage in hateful or biased behavior, but was in fact, the subject of discriminatory treatment and animus based on her religion,” according to the lawsuit.
She’s seeking unspecified damages.
NYU Langone declined comment on the lawsuit.
