Shvigger from Hell!! Donna Adelson Guilty: Jury Convicts Matriarch in Killing of Jewish Law Professor Daniel Markel

 

The full story below the post! Watch and Weep!

 Donna Adelson, 75, the matriarch of a wealthy Miami family, was convicted Thursday of orchestrating the murder-for-hire plot that killed her former son-in-law, Florida State University law professor Daniel Markel, in 2014.

A jury found Adelson guilty of first-degree murder, conspiracy, and solicitation, closing a chapter in a case that has gripped Florida for more than a decade with its mix of bitter custody disputes, family power struggles, and violence.

Markel, a respected legal scholar and observant Jew active in Tallahassee’s Jewish community, was shot outside his home after blocking his ex-wife Wendi Adelson’s attempt to relocate their children to South Florida. Prosecutors said Donna Adelson, furious over the custody ruling, helped arrange the hit when legal avenues failed.

At trial, prosecutors described her as the calculating matriarch of an affluent family with the means and motive to eliminate the man she “hated.” Defense attorneys countered that the evidence tied other family members to the killing but fell short of linking her directly.

When the guilty verdict was read in court, Adelson burst into tears and exclaimed, “Oh!” before shaking and crying.

She becomes the fifth person convicted in the case, joining her son Charles Adelson, who is serving a life sentence, along with ex-girlfriend Katherine Magbanua, hitman Sigfredo Garcia, and getaway driver Luis Rivera.

The trial also highlighted Adelson’s Jewish identity. Her attorneys requested an expedited schedule earlier this year to avoid conflicts with Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur, reflecting her observance of the High Holidays.

Beyond the courtroom, Adelson had been a prominent civic figure. In May, she testified before the Senate Aging Committee as president of the Holocaust Survivors Foundation, where she advocated for the welfare of aging survivors.

Markel’s murder sent shockwaves through Tallahassee’s legal and Jewish communities. Friends recalled him as a devoted father, scholar, and mentor. For many, Thursday’s verdict closed one painful chapter but underscored the tragedy of a family feud that spiraled into violence.

Milk shortages expected to intensify as chief rabbis veto non-Jews working in dairies over Sabbath, holidays

In a letter addressed to Agriculture Minister Avi Dichter, the chief rabbis of Israel reject a proposal to allow non-Jewish workers to operate dairies during the Jewish holidays in order to avoid an expected shortage.

“Dairies in Israel receive kosher certification from the Chief Rabbinate, and operating the plants on Shabbat could compromise the certification they are granted,” says the letter signed by Sephardi Chief Rabbi David Yosef and Ashkenazi Chief Rabbi Kalman Ber.

“The Sabbath is one of the most distinctive symbols of the Israeli nation and is the sign of the covenant between the Creator and his people,” it adds. “The very fact that factories in Israel observe the sanctity of Shabbat is a statement in itself and also expresses the Jewish identity of the State of Israel.”

The High Holidays — Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur — followed immediately by Sukkot and Shemini Atzeret-Simchat Torah, starting later this month, will fall in the middle of the week, shutting milk production at dairies for a total of nine workdays. Production also ceases on Shabbat, to comply with kashrut constraints.

Yosef and Ber say that dairies in Israel already have experience with the challenge and managed to avoid shortages in the past.

“In our opinion, since we are still at a reasonable distance from the [Jewish month of] Tishrei holidays, there is sufficient time to make the necessary arrangements to ensure that no shortage will occur, God forbid,” they write in the letter.

Grocery stores in Israel have been rationing milk over the past few weeks amid production shortfalls.



 

Police Arrest an 80-Year-Old Alter-Kocker and a 60-Year-old for Jerusalem arson

The owner of the vehicle that was torched

Two suspects, aged 60 and 80, were arrested in Jerusalem on Wednesday on suspicion of setting fire to dumpsters and tires in the Rehavia and Givat Ram neighborhoods in the capital earlier in the day.

As a result of their alleged acts, a parked car belonging to an IDF reservist was severely damaged, and residents of nearby buildings were forced to evacuate. The police stressed that no one was hurt in the incidents.

Police from the Jerusalem District, together with emergency services, rushed to the scene, extinguished the blaze, and prevented additional danger to the public.

An initial investigation found that the suspects, residents of Jerusalem and central Israel, arrived at the Rehavia neighborhood and set fire to the dumpsters. As a result, the vehicle and the dumpsters were heavily damaged.

The police noted: "These are criminal and dangerous acts that can endanger lives, damage property, and disrupt the lives of the residents." They also emphasized that legal protests are permitted, but "any attempt to harm public safety will be met with strong and unrelenting enforcement."

The car that was burned was found to belong to an active reservist and his wife. The couple are parents to three children, including twin girls who were born prematurely.

All of the child safety seats were burned, along with all of the equipment stored in the vehicle. "My husband is in the reserves and was called up with an emergency reserve order, scheduled for next week," his wife shared.

"I have no idea how in another week from now, when he is in reserves, I am supposed to take my children to their preschools," she added. "Just two days ago, we put a lot of money into this car and we re-equipped it. Good luck to me getting my daughter to preschool every morning alone, with no car."

A resident of the building near the burning garbage bins told Arutz Sheva - Israel National News: “Almost the entire building caught fire, and it could have ended in a serious disaster and people dying. I call on the police to act and arrest the anarchists.”

"Settlers' Suing Leftist Reporters for Defamation and Winning!


 Senior Maariv reporter Ben Caspit was ordered by the Petah Tikva Magistrate’s Court to pay NIS 25,000 shekels in damages to right-wing activist Elisha Yered for writing libelous statements about him on social media.

The statements were published in 2022, after Otzma Yehudit MK Limor Son Har-Melech appointed Yered as her spokesperson. Caspit publicly claimed that Yered has been held in administrative detention by the Shin Bet and was unfit to serve in a public position.

Yered then filed a defamation lawsuit against Caspit through Attorney Menashe Yado of the Honenu legal aid organization.

In response to the verdict, Yered stated, “The days when leftists could conduct wild smear campaigns against the settlements are over. Whoever defames will pay. Ben Caspit tried to cast mud and lies to harm the hilltop youth, but now, thanks to him, another hill can be built in Yehudah and Shomron. I invite all the leftists who want to contribute and help settle the land to follow Caspit’s path and see what the price is for running a hostile and false campaign against the settlers of the land.”

Attorney Menashe Yado stated, “The court rejected Caspit’s claim of ‘I spoke the truth’ because he did not tell the truth and also rejected his claim of good faith because he did not correct the publications even though it became clear that they were incorrect. The practical meaning of the court’s rulings is that for Ben Caspit, defamation was more important than the truth, and that’s why he will pay.”

Coalition for Jewish Values Slams "Rabbis" Like the Progressive Traitor Blau and his Gang “of Accusing Israel of Starving Gaza

 


Alan Skorski recently sat down with Rabbi Yaakov Menken, Executive VP of the Coalition for Jewish Values (CJV), to discuss a controversial letter signed by 80 rabbis — mostly aligned with “open Orthodoxy” and progressive causes — that accused Israel of moral failings in its war against Hamas.

The letter, titled “A Call for Moral Clarity, Responsibility, and a Jewish Orthodox Response in the Face of the Gaza Humanitarian Crisis,” alleged that Israel bore partial responsibility for starvation in Gaza, citing reports that the Jewish state was “withholding food and aid.”

“Hamas’s sins and crimes do not relieve the government of Israel of its obligations to make whatever efforts are necessary to prevent mass starvation,” the signatories wrote. They further claimed that anger toward Hamas had “expanded by some extremists into blanket suspicion of the entire population of Gaza — children included,” and also accused Israeli “settler violence” of destabilizing the region.

The letter insisted that “Orthodox Jewry… bears a unique moral responsibility” and preached that “Judaism’s vision of justice and compassion extends to all human beings.”

CJV’s Strong Rebuke

In response, the Coalition for Jewish Values published a counter-letter, signed by more than 160 rabbis, which directly refuted the accusations. Rabbi Menken noted that many of the original signatories were not even pulpit rabbis, and that most represent “open Orthodoxy,” a movement he stressed “is not in compliance with Torah Judaism.”

The CJV response stated:

“Responsibility for Suffering in Gaza assigns partial responsibility for the suffering of Gaza’s civilians to Israel. This is false; the one and only source of Gaza’s ongoing tragedy is Hamas. To state otherwise is to grant unintended support to antisemitic inversions of this obvious truth.”

The letter emphasized that Israel did not choose this war and that “Hamas — and only Hamas — bears full and exclusive responsibility for the ongoing suffering of Gaza’s population.”

Rabbi Menken highlighted Israel’s consistent efforts to transfer food, medicine, and aid into Gaza despite being under fire, pointing out that shortages occur only because Hamas seizes supplies for its fighters.

“Casting Israel as the source of starvation echoes Hamas’s false narrative and undermines Israel’s just conduct under fire,” the CJV letter warned.

Addressing the moral arguments made by the progressive rabbis, Rabbi Menken stressed that Judaism prioritizes the protection of life — beginning with one’s own. He cited Deuteronomy 4:15, Venishmartem me’od lenafshoseichem (“you shall profoundly guard your life”), and Deuteronomy 13:16, Uvi’arta hara mikirbecha (“you shall eradicate evil from your midst”).

Quoting the Medrash Tanchuma (Metzora), Rabbi Menken added:

“Whoever is kind to the cruel will end up being cruel to the kind.”

With over twice the number of rabbis signing in support, the CJV’s response underscored that mainstream Torah leadership rejects the accusations against Israel and stands firmly with the Jewish state in its war against Hamas.

What Israeli scientists are working on in the middle of a war!

The Israelis do not make islands in the shape of palm trees, towering skyscrapers, expensive hotels, nor do their leaders use cars with massive silver bodies (allusion to Dubai and the United Arab Emirates). 
The pride of Israel is that its technologies will be able to be used by all humanity:



1.⁠ ⁠Tel Aviv University is developing a nasal vaccine that will protect people from Alzheimer's and stroke.

2.⁠ ⁠The Technion Institute of Technology (Haifa), has developed a simple blood test capable of detecting different types of cancer.

 3.⁠ ⁠The Ichlov Center (Tel Aviv) isolated a protein that makes colonoscopy unnecessary to detect colon cancer, with a simple blood test. Colon cancer kills about 500,000 people annually.

 4.⁠ ⁠Acne doesn't kill but does cause anxiety in teens. The Curlight Laboratory has created a cure. Emitting UV rays at high intensity, kills the bacteria that cause acne.

 5.⁠ ⁠The Given Imaging Laboratory has developed a tiny camera in the form of swallowed pills and transmits thousands of photos of the digestive tract. These high-quality photos (2 per second for 8 hours) can detect polyps, cancers, and sources of bleeding. The photos are sent to a chip that stores them and sends them to a computer. At the end of the process, the chamber is eliminated via the rectum.

6.⁠ ⁠The Hebrew University (Jerusalem) developed an electrical neurostimulator (batteries) that is implanted in the chest of Parkinson's patients, similar to the pacemaker. The emissions from this device block the nerve signals that cause tremors.

 7.⁠ ⁠The simple smell of a patient's breath can detect if a patient has lung cancer. The Russell Berrie Institute for Nanotechnology has created sensors capable of sensing and registering 42 biological markers that indicate the presence of lung cancer without the need for a biopsy.

 8.⁠ ⁠Catheterization can be dispensed with in many cases. Endopat is a device placed between the indicator fingers, which can measure the state of the arteries and predict the possibility of a heart attack in the next 7 years.

9.⁠ ⁠The University of Bar Ilan studies a new drug that fights viruses through the bloodstream. It is called Vecoy Trap, as it tricks a virus into self-destruction. Very useful to combat hepatitis, and in the future Aids and Ebola.

10.⁠ ⁠Israeli scientists at Hadassah Medical Center (Jerusalem) may have discovered the first cure for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, known as Lou Gehring's disease, in an Orthodox rabbi. Stephen Hawking, a famous British scientist, suffered from this disease and used methods invented by Israeli scientists to communicate.

You will never get this from the media! The world shouldn't live on bad news alone …. so spread this as good news.


 

Macron Posts in Arabic To Slam US visa ban against Palestinian Terrorists

 

French President Emmanuel Macron said the U.S. decision to deny visas to Palestinian Authority officials ahead of the UN General Assembly was “unacceptable” and must be reversed under the UN host country agreement.

Writing on X — including a version in Arabic — Macron announced that he and Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman will co-chair a Conference on the Two-State Solution in New York on September 22.

Macron said the goal is to rally global support for two states, calling for a permanent ceasefire, the release of hostages, massive humanitarian aid, and a Gaza stabilization mission. He added that Hamas must be disarmed and excluded from governance, while the PA is reformed and strengthened, and Gaza fully rebuilt.

“No offensive, annexation attempt, or forced displacement will derail the momentum we have created,” Macron said, vowing the conference will be a “decisive turning point for peace and security.”

Terror Leaders Abroad Freaking Out As Israel Hunts Them Down


Al-Araby Al-Jadeed reports growing anxiety among terror groups after Israel’s threats against their senior officials overseas. 

Palestinian leaders outside Gaza, including in Egypt, are tightening security. 

Cairo reportedly warned Israel against targeting PIJ leader Ziad al-Nakhaleh in Cairo, while Hamas officials say multiple host countries urged them to increase precautions. 

Turkey has also raised security amid fears of an Israeli strike on Hamas leaders there.
