Rabbi Shai Ohayon, 39, Father of 4 Murdered by an Arab Barbarian

The victim of the stabbing attack at Segula Junction in Petah Tikva Wednesday was identified as Rabbi Shai Ohayon, a member of the Breslov hasidic movement and father of four. He was 39 years old.

David Yosef Mugrabi, a close friend of Rabbi Ohayon, told Channel 13 News: 

"The family cannot believe it. It doesn't compute. His mother, an elderly woman and a widow, would be willing to give her life for his. Many people from his community, where he was their rabbi, cannot accept or compute this. He was incapable of harming another person."

Mugrabi added, "We met 11 years ago when I was looking for a place to study. He was holy during his life and he is holy even now. He studied with dedication he first earned a degree as a rabbi ... and moved on to become a city rabbi at 39 with a young wife and four children."

The terrorist, a Palestinian Authority savage a resident from the Shechem (Nabulus) area working in Israel, was apprehended by officers at the scene.

Police have transferred him to the Shin Bet internal security agency for interrogation.

An eyewitness, Urel Torati, told Channel 13 that the terrorist stabbed the victim five to six times with large knife.

"I was driving in my car when suddenly I saw a knife, like a butcher knife. [The terrorist] drove it in maybe five or six times into the victim's body. I saw lots of blood. We stopped the car quickly and suddenly as we saw the stabber with the knife, people ran back to their cars and tried to hit him."

"The wounded man was lying on the sidewalk unconscious, suffering from bleeding wounds on his torso," said MDA paramedics Ilan Mualem and Hezi Gutman.

 "We immediately began to provide life-saving medical treatment including bandaging the wounds, stopping the bleeding, and advanced resuscitating techniques. We then quickly took him into the mobile intensive care unit and evacuated him to the hospital in critical condition, while continuing to attempt to resuscitate him."

Yurzeit of the Zera Shimshon

 Rabbi Shimshon Chaim ben  Nachman Michael Nachmani, served as rabbi for four large communities throughout Italy. Rabbi Shimshon Chaim  was 'Niftar' in the year 1779 on the 6th of Ellul, in the city of Reggio in Italy. 

 Outstanding rabbanic figures like the 'Chida' (Rabbi Haim Yosef David Azulai ben Rabbi Rephael Yitzhak Zerachia) spoke very highly of him. Rabbi Shimshon Chaim lived during the lifetime of  'Or ha-Ḥayyim' 'Hakadosh' (Rabbi Chaim ben Atar ben Rabbi Moshe) and were friends.

Rabbi Shimshon Chaim had only one child, a son, who died at a young age. Upon his death Rabbi Shimshon Chaim decided to dedicate his 'Sefarim' in his memory.

 In the preface of his book Rabbi Shimshon Chaim wrote that he needs to leave some memory in this world because he didn't have any other children to continue the family legacy so he wrote: "Zera Shimshon", meaning "Shimshon's Seed." Rabbi Shimshon Chaim published the book one year before he died.

Rabbi Shimshon Chaim made tremendous efforts that people should learn from his ''Sefarim''. Rabbi Shimshon Chaim also emphasized, that after his 'Neshama',  leaves this world, people should continue to learn from his ''Sefarim''. 

What is most unusual for a Tzadik of this stature, was that he made a promise. 

That promise is that anyone that takes upon himself to learn from his writings, will merit to have  "children, praise, health, 'Parnasa', wealth, and honor".

Families Dig up their Dead Relatives to Put Fresh Clothes on Them, Have a Hug... and Even Share a Cigarette

This gives "Techiyas Ha'Meisim"  a whole new meaning.

I see they give the guy a cigarette... why not? what is he go to die from?

They encourage visitors to visit and take part ... No thanks...I'll pass. .... (was that a pun? I hope not) 

When loved ones die families keep their bodies for months, sometimes years, in their own homes or in  a 'Tongkonan' which is a specific building designed to house the dead.

While families mourn, prepare for burials and save for the funeral they often interact with the bodies as if they were alive by talking to them and including them in family meals. 

The Torjan community consider death to be the most important aspect of life and often get into crippling debt from paying for funerals.  

The annual visit to their loved ones is considered a second funeral where they also clean or replace coffins to prevent the bodies from decomposing. 

After relatives have spent time with the dead and re-dressed their bodies and coffins they are usually reinterred with gifts in their ornate, colourful coffins.   

Head of the Torajan branch of AMAN Eric Crystal Rante Allo last year told The Sydney Morning Herald while it might seem strange to outsiders, it is a key part of the culture. 

'Toraja people believe the spirit of the dead lives among us, the living, looking out for us, blessing us,' he said.

'That's why, before the ritual of the burial is performed, they are called to'makula, or just sick, not yet dead. Toraja's people highly respect their dead.'

Visitors are welcome to visit the area during the ritual month of August and are encouraged to take part in the festivities.

BLM Mob threaten White Diners DEMAND They Raise Fist To Show Solidarity With Them.... Or Else

A large crowd of Black Lives Matter protesters have accosted white diners outside several Washington, D.C. restaurants, demanding that they raise their fists to show solidarity with the movement. 

Footage showing the demonstrators aggressively yelling at one woman in the Adams Morgan neighborhood went viral on social media and sparked a widespread backlash.  

Many accused the protesters of acting like an 'aggressive mob' and using 'intimidation tactics' to order diners into submission.  Responding to the footage, MSNBC host Joe Scarborough described the activists as 'horrible people'. 

The footage shows the woman, identified as Lauren Victor, being shouted at by white protesters after she refuses to raise her fist. 

The group crowded Victor's table, with two female demonstrators leaning down and shouting in her face. 

'Are you a Christian?' one of the women shout, outraged by the fact Victor was unwilling to raise her fist in solidarity.  

'No justice, no peace!' the large group of activists then start yelling. 

Victor later told Washington Post reporter Frederik Kunkle that she felt that she was 'under attack'. 

Ironically, Victor is a supporter of the Black Lives Matter movement and has participated in many marches, but didn't want to be 'coerced' into showing support. 

'In the moment, it didn't feel right,' she stated. 

'I wasn't actually frightened. I didn't think they'd do anything to me. I'm very much with them. I've been marching with them for weeks and weeks and weeks.'  

Many on Twitter took issue with the race of the Black Lives Matter protesters accosting Victor. 

Almost all of those seen in the video were white, with several people accusing the activists of undermining the positive work that black organizers have been doing in recent months. 

'I see no black faces at all. These dopes will ruin this movement for all of us,' African-American TV anchor Derek McGinty wrote. 

Others stated that it would turn people away from supporting the movement. 

'You don't win supporters by screaming in people's faces and intimidating them. How many people have watched this video and been turned off? Is it about making a real change or just ego gratification? 

Another bluntly theorized: 'This gives Trump four more years.'

Meanwhile, other videos showed the protesters screaming at another couple at a separate restaurant, calling them 'trash' for refusing to raise their fists.

In France Mosques Are flourishing While Churches are Closing Up

A traveller to Eastern Europe can visit the sites of once-famous yeshivas like Slobodka, Kelm, Volozhin Telze and Ponevech and mourn at seeing buildings that once echoed with Talmudic study and which are now either empty ruins or have been transformed into community centers or shops.

Those yeshivas, however, abandoned because of the Holocaust and prior periods of persecution, and the shuls burned to the ground by Nazis and their cohorts, have been reborn in Israel (and the USA)..Today, the sound of Torah echoes from thousands of voices, more than there ever were in the renowned European yeshivas.

One cannot say the same about what is happening to Christianity in Europe, with France at the head. 

The worshipers are no more, and now it is the turn of the buildings.

“Should we abandon the churches of our villages, victims of de-Christianization?”, asks Stéphane Bern, commissioned by Emmanuel Macron to protect French cultural heritage, in a new essay for La Reveue des deux mondes.

On its website, the Patrice Besse real estate agency, which specializes in historic buildings, lists thirty churches currently for sale. Per square meter, desecrated churches are the cheapest lots in the country.

You may now infect the bride, the groom and all the guests!

Three banquet halls in Brooklyn’s Borough Park neighborhood appeared to be hosting Hasidic Jewish wedding parties less than a week after Mayor Bill de Blasio warned that a similar gathering there led to an “uptick” in coronavirus cases.

The Post saw celebrations involving as many as around 200 people each underway Monday night at the Torah Vyirah Hall, the Ateres Chaya Hall and the Ohr Hachaim Viznitz Hall, all of which are located along a 10-block stretch of 53rd and 54th streets.

At Torah Vyriah, the windows were covered with paper to prevent anyone from looking in, but people in formal attire were getting out of cars that pulled up near a side door on 54th Street through which they entered.

A waiter who was working the event said there were probably about 200 people inside.

Man Murdered in Yerushlayim Yeshiva

A man in his 60s died Monday evening, after being hospitalized following an apparent attack late last week.

The victim had been living at a yeshiva in the Beit Yisrael neighborhood, near Meah Sharim, in Jerusalem.

Police are investigating the man’s death as a murder case, and have arrested one suspect.

The suspect, a man from the town of Mevaseret Tzion, west of Jerusalem, had also been staying at the yeshiva in question at the time of the incident.

Forensics teams were dispatched to the yeshiva, where they collected evidence suggesting the victim was in fact murdered.

Authorities then identified and arrested the suspected murdered, a man in his 40s.

The suspect is scheduled to be brought before a Jerusalem court Tuesday for an extension of his arrest.
