Mir Yerushalyim To Open New Branch In Beit Shemesh


 In a major development for the Torah world and the growing chareidi community in Beit Shemesh, a massive five-dunam plot of land has officially been allocated for a new branch of Mir Yeshiva in the Ramat Beit Shemesh Hey 2 (Neve Shamir) neighborhood.

The new makom Torah will operate under the leadership of the Rosh HaYeshiva HaGaon HaRav Eliezer Yehuda Finkel, continuing the remarkable expansion of the Mir, today recognized as the largest yeshiva in the world.

The allocation was finalized following an extensive approval process and reportedly received strong support from Shmuel Greenberg, who has made the strengthening of mosdos haTorah a major priority in the city’s development.

The move is being viewed as another historic milestone in the continued growth of the Mir empire, which began in Yerushalayim’s Beis Yisroel neighborhood and later expanded to major branches including Mir Brachfeld in Modi’in Illit and the Mir yeshiva ketanah in Ramat Shlomo.

The establishment of a Mir branch in Ramat Beit Shemesh Hey is also being seen as a powerful sign of the neighborhood’s emergence as a major Torah center. Residents and askanim expressed excitement over the arrival of hundreds of bnei Torah who will bring the unique atmosphere and hasmadah associated with the famed Mirrer olam hayeshivos to the rapidly developing area.

At this stage, hanhalas hayeshiva is preparing for the initial planning phase of what is expected to become a major new Torah campus that will accommodate the yeshiva’s continued growth and expanding demand in the burgeoning Ir HaTorah of Beit Shemesh.

IDF Successfully Drafted 360 Chareidim This Week Despite Opposition From Leading Rabbonim

 

The Dam is finally cracking, as more and more Charedim want to be a part of the state and realizing that they are being led by a bunch of ancient disconnected clueless leaders who are being fed lies and propaganda by their handlers! 

They don't want to be resented by the rest of Klall Yisrael, and want to contribute to the welfare of their own families and the State! This is our State, the home of the majority of the Jewish people, and they are recognizing that what they were told in their Yeshivas is not sustainable and was never the way Klall Yisrael functioned! 

Reading Tanach, you will see every leader had an army! 

?האחיכם יבאו למלחמה ואתם תשבו פה

The IDF drafted approximately 360 Chareidi men this week, the military announced, marking progress in its efforts to integrate Chareidim into compulsory military service despite staunch opposition from rabbanim and roshei yeshiva.

Of the recruits, 231 joined combat roles including the Chashmonaim Brigade, the Netzach Yehuda Battalion, and the Paratroopers Brigade. Another 131 were assigned to combat support positions, including fighter jet technician units. The IDF expects more Chareidi conscripts to arrive over the coming two weeks as part of the same draft cohort.

The push comes as the IDF says it faces acute manpower shortages. Some 80,000 Chareidi men aged 18-24 remain eligible for service but have not enlisted. The IDF says it urgently needs 12,000 recruits — primarily combat troops — to sustain operations across multiple fronts.

“We are drafting more Chareidi soldiers out of operational necessity,” the military insisted.

The IDF has expanded infrastructure to accommodate Chareidi service members, implementing new protocols that allow them to maintain religious observance while serving. However, Chareidi leaders say the new frameworks for Chareidi soldiers are woefully inadequate. ‘

R' Shimon ben Yochi Refuses to protect family of 6 "idiots" from a Rocky Cliff After Attempting To Reach Meron From Tzfat, Zionists come to the recue

It seems that R" Shimon ben Yochai doesn't want the fires, and instead wants Jews to abide by the Zionists safety regulations. First there was an enormous tragedy where Jews murdered other Jews  and now there was at least 10 near misses.
The government was worried that Hezbollah would target Meron, and I don't even want to think what would have happened if this occurred. 
Again, Charedim by-in-large are a reckless community  and refuse to abide by safety standards because its issued by Zionists, but when they wind up in a hole and cannot get out, whom do they call? The Zionists! 
These children need to be put up for adoption, they will be much better off, the grandmother needs to be rushed to an asylum !

 Late on Tuesday night, a complex and dramatic rescue operation by volunteers from the “Galil-Carmel” rescue unit of the Israel Police came to an end. 

Six family members, a grandmother and her five grandchildren, aged 10 to 15 from Tzfat, who had attempted to reach the Lag BaOmer celebrations in Meron on foot, lost their way and found themselves trapped on a dangerous cliff.


T
he incident began in the early evening, when the grandmother called the police emergency center. She reported that the family was lost in the field, stuck on a cliff with no ability to continue walking. Despite a strict ban on accessing Rabbi Shimon bar Yochai’s tomb, the family tried to make their way from Tzfat to Meron through rough terrain. Rain in the area made the slopes especially slippery and dangerous, leaving the group stranded on the western slope of the Nahal Amud stream.

Upon receiving the call, a command post was set up at the Kfar Shamai parking area. The unit’s search teams raced against time, with one team scanning the terrain and using sirens until they established voice contact with the trapped family. The operation was carried out in close cooperation with inspectors from the Nature and Parks Authority and volunteers from United Hatzalah. A drone operated by United Hatzalah located the group on the cliff and illuminated their position for rescuers. In the first stage, a flashlight and thermal blankets were dropped from the air to prevent hypothermia among the children.

Due to the difficult terrain and slippery rocks, the unit’s rope rescue team (climbing, rappelling, and rescue) was deployed. The rescuers built a complex rope system, through which the family members were safely extracted one by one out of the streambed. After a medical check by the unit’s paramedic, the family was evacuated home safe and sound.

It is worth noting that this was the second consecutive day of operations for the “Galil-Carmel” rescue unit in the Meron area, after they had also been engaged the previous day in rescuing hikers and worshippers in the region.

The rescue unit stated:

 “We reiterate that access to the Meron area is strictly prohibited. The combination of challenging terrain and unpredictable weather can end in disaster. Our volunteers worked long hours in the rain, using specialized rope systems to bring the grandmother and her grandchildren home safely.”

Jonathan Pollard launches bid for Knesset

 

I met with Jonathan Pollard a couple of months ago, and my wife and I had an hour discussion with him in Yeushlayim, and found him to be extremely intelligent, honest and would make a great spokesperson for Israel from the Knesset.

For those who say that Pollard is a criminal and that he sold secrets to Israel for money, I say so what?? 
At the end of the day, he gave those secrets to Israel, not an enemy of the USA!
Israel for political reasons abandoned him.

For those who accuse him of treating his first wife, Anne, badly, that is not true. According to an interview to The Times of Israel on Nov 20, 2015, she says that she has no idea why Jonathan divorced her. We don't know why he divorced her and he never gave her closure, but why is that an issue in his campaign?? 
We are not electing a pope!
If we start scrutinizing the Knesset members you will be left with a handful of honest, clean background people. 
What is interesting to note is that those criticizing Pollard because of his background also hate members of the Knesset  who phenomenal backgrounds like Ben-Gvir and Smotrich! 


Jonathan Pollard, who was held for 30 years in a U.S. prison for espionage on behalf of Israel, intends to run in the upcoming Knesset elections.

'The country was abandoned on October 7th just as I was'
In an interview with i24NEWS he says the idea took shape after the October 7th massacre.
 Which party did he join and what is his criticism of the current actors on the right of the political map?

The Jewish American 'Conception' ('conseptziya') VS. the Israeli konseptziya

 

The world has read extensively about the flawed Israeli 'conseptziya' (understanding of reality) that paved the way for the October 7 surprise attack. Far less has been written about a simultaneous breakdown occurring within American Jewry. While one relates to the horrors of kinetic warfare, the other concerns the true position and stability of the Diaspora.

For decades, American Jews operated under their own flawed 'conseptziya,' regarding their status in society-assumptions that have been exposed by the surge of Jew-Hatred since October 7. In both cases this misdiagnosis of reality led to huge lapses in judgement and planning.

"Fake Rav" Seidenfeld from Monsey issues Fake Siruv Against Rav Mordechai Willig !


Who is this Seidenfeld who pretends to be a Rav? I lived in Monsey for over 30 years and never heard of this Bais Din? The chutzpa to issue a "siruv" to Rav Willig! 


A Monsey beis din has placed Rav Mordechai Willig - Av Beis Din of the Beis Din of America - in nidui.

The declaration, dated 8 Tammuz 5785, was issued on the letterhead of Beis Din Tzedek Mishpat Hatorah at 207 Bates Drive, Monsey, and calls on the public to distance themselves from him.

Rav Willig is one of the senior dayanim of the most established beis din in North America - the body that has issued seruvim against Gett refusers for decades.

The community deserves public answers from this Gett abuse-enabling “Dayan” named Seidenfeld on Bates in Monsey.

 

Baal Teshuva Lunatic Traveled from the USA to Israel so he "Can spit on Tziyonim"

 

This raving sicko says that he lived in the USA but came to Israel so that he can spit into the face of Tzyoinim! He adds that he became a "Baal Teshuva" after witnessing a Hafgana! 

But what I'm surprised is that there are adults all around them looking like normal people who are listening to this meshiginar and have no reactions! 
And he is saying this with children around him! 

Is it any wonder that Chardeim are splitting away from these sickos?



Toms River Rabbis Want Our Teenagers Who are a bit Off to eat at MacDonalds! They don't Want them in Kosher Restaurants!

This story out of Toms River is simply unbelievable. A group of rabbanim are upset that teenagers are hanging out at Smash House, a kosher restaurant.

I know these rabbanim personally, and until now I had tremendous respect for them — but this is sheer madness.

Where exactly do they expect these kids to go? Would they prefer the teens hang out in treif places instead?

And if the concern is that their own children might be influenced, there are literally hundreds of other kosher restaurants in Lakewood where they can take their kids. No one is forcing them to go to Smash House.

I can’t help but wonder: If it were their own children or grandchildren, would these rabbanim still think it’s better for teens to end up in non‑kosher environments rather than in a supervised, kosher restaurant?
