Gingrich: Trump Will Be Indicted for Mishandling Classified Info
Former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich predicted Thursday night that Donald Trump will be indicted by the Justice Department over allegations that he mishandled top-secret classified documents.
“You have corruption from the Attorney General, to the head of the FBI, to senior elements of the FBI,” he said. “You have collusion from a wide range of the intelligence community. You had, I think it was 50 some intelligence senior officials who signed a letter last year that we now know is a total lie, none of whom have recanted.”
“I fully expect the Justice Department to indict President Trump in a DC court, a district where he got 5.6 percent of the vote. So by 19 to one, the jury is likely to be against him.”
“I have no idea what’s going to happen next,” he added. “I’m a historian by training and I tell everybody you have to assume that nothing, you know, tells you anything about how corrupt and how sick this is going to get. Because you get have fanatic who represent a secular religion who are determined to destroy not just Trump but Trump’s followers. They could do almost anything. We have no way of knowing what the next six months or two years are going to bring.”
Angry man smears half of the people of the country he is supposed to lead
In a rare primetime speech, President Biden trashed the millions of Trump supporters who call themselves MAGA Republicans.
In the divisive speech, Biden the self-proclaimed “unifier” accused MAGA supporters of an “extreme ideology” that essentially threatens “the very foundations of our republic.”
In addition, some were outraged that the stage design and tone of the speech was reminiscent of evil regimes like the Nazis.

Meir Kin Will Not Be Able to Bury His Father in Israel Should he Drop Dead Unless He Gives His Wife a Get
 |
| Daniel Schwartz, Chaya Lonna and the Yad LaIsha lawyers Pnina Omer, Morah Dayan , Yifah Blonder, at the Supreme Court. July 2022. |
Israel’s Chief Rabbinate Council on Thursday ruled that in difficult cases of get refusal, the burial of the refuser’s relatives must be banned until he grants the get. The decision followed the discussions in a difficult case in which the aguna wife has been stranded for more than 18 years in the US, while her husband succeeded in marrying another woman in California in 2014.
The aguna, Haya Lana, appealed many times to the rabbinical courts in the US, but the husband insisted on refusing to grant her the get and didn’t even bother to show up for the hearings while enjoying his new marital life. In August, Haya Lana submitted a request to the Chief Rabbinate via attorneys Daniel Schwartz and Avraham Ben-Zvi, for an order that as long as the get is not granted, the transfer of bodies and burial in Israel of the husband and his relatives, including his father who is on his deathbed, must be banned.

New entrance to Yerushalayim opens
A new entrance to Jerusalem, Route 16, opened Wednesday and is expected to significantly ease traffic, providing speedy travel between Route 1 and the city’s southern neighborhoods.
Inaugurated on Wednesday by government officials, the six-kilometer (3.7 mile) section connects motorists from Route 1 — the main highway connecting Jerusalem and Tel Aviv — directly into the Givat Mordechai neighborhood.
The road, consisting of four tunnels and seven bridges, also includes 50,000 acres of newly landscaped territory featuring bike paths, walking paths, picnic areas and observation points overlooking the Jerusalem hills.
Sharansky: Gorbachev wouldn’t have released Soviet Jews if not for global pressure
Nice article but there is one thing missing! The giant elephant in the room!
Meir Kahana!
It was Rabbi Meir Kahana that put the plight of the Soviet Jews on the front pages of the New York Slimes!
It was Rabbi Meir Kahana that put pressure on all the Major Jewish Organizations to make this agenda a priority and to advocate for Soviet Jews living behind the Iron Country to bring the issue to Washington DC and to Congress!
I remember that the Gedoilim were against Kahana's ideas to make their plight public. I distinctly remember that the Gedoilim would not allow Yeshiva Students to attend any of Meir Kahana's rallies on behalf of Soviet Jews. They were content with sending care packages to Soviet Jews and sending them Marzos for Pesach. They felt that it was far better to negotiate secretly. This did not move the needle at all and was a dismal failure.
When the Jews were finally allowed to leave, they thanked Rabbi Kahana publicly and not one had a bad word to say about him. I live in Beit Shemesh and there are many Jews living in my neighborhood that lived under the Communist Tyranny, and they all give credit to his initiatives and his tireless selfless work to get them the freedom that they so deserved.
I had the honor to meet Sharanski on many occasions and whenever he spoke he mentioned Rabbi Meir Kahana.
I know that the good rabbi will not get recognition for this work in particular, from the leftists politicians, but wouldn't it be prudent for frum Jews to be "makir tov" and give credit where credit is due? Or am I asking too much?
A response to the Vicious Self-Hating Jew Peter Beinart
It is almost autumn, which means it is time for yet another op-ed from Peter Beinart, professor of journalism and political science, and self-proclaimed visionary for a middle east without a Jewish state. Beinart did not disappoint, publishing his latest piece, deceptively titled “Has the Fight Against Antisemitism Lost Its Way?” in the New York Times on August 26, 2022.
Beinart’s op-eds have all served a similar purpose: to demonstrate that Israel, as a “Jewish State” severely and unjustly oppresses the innocent Palestinian nation, to the point that Israel needs to be unmade and reconfigured as a state for all the peoples living between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean Sea. That the consequences of creating such a polity, in which Jews would be a minority if not immediately then in the near future, would likely include civil war, ethnic cleansing, and perhaps yet another Arab state that will violently purge itself of its Jewish population (as Hamas has promised in its foundational charter) does not seem to bother Beinart. Demonstrating his complete ignorance of history, Beinart takes it as a given that Jews and Arabs will live harmoniously in his imagined multi-national utopia.
Hell on Earth Holocaust survivor testifies to daily beatings, cannibalism in Nazi camp
A Holocaust survivor told a shocked courtroom in Germany on Tuesday how starving inmates ate the body parts of dead prisoners to stay alive.
Speaking via video connection from her home in Australia, Risa Silbert, 93, told the Itzehoe Regional Court in Shleswig-Holstein about the daily atrocities she and other prisoners faced at the Stutthof concentration camp.
“Stutthof was hell,” she said.
“We had cannibalism in the camp. People were hungry and they cut up the corpses and they wanted to take out the liver.”
Born to a Jewish family in Klaipėda, Lithuania, in 1929, Silbert was taken to Stutthoff, in Poland, with her mother and sister in August 1944. Her father and brother were murdered by German collaborators in 1941.

Theodor Herzl;s six days of action to establish the Stae of Israel
Theodor Herzl needed only six days of action to establish a state. Or at least that period of time to understand and absorb that, in this short time, he laid the foundations for the political existence of the Jewish people.
On 1 Elul, 5647 (1897) Herzl was still running around the Stadtcasino concert hall in Basel, starching flags, commenting – like a skilled editor – on the delegates’ speeches that were sent to him ahead of time. He then reprimanded Max Nordau and sent him back to the hotel to change his casual clothes into a frock coat, in accordance with the ceremonial dress code. On Friday, 6 Elul (1897), after the 208 delegates had returned to their relevant countries, Herzl wrote in his diary: “At Basel, I founded the Jewish state.”
What made Herzl realize that the Jewish state had been founded at the special conference of the First Zionist Congress? After all, another fifty years passed until the actual declaration of independence, during which time the Jewish people faced a real danger of annihilation. Herzl had, in fact, launched a vision that expressed a desire. In the following lines in his diary, he wrote: “The foundation of the state was already laid in the people’s desire for a homeland.”
One word in the Hebrew language expresses the transition from the metaphysical event of the First Zionist Congress to the physical event called the State of Israel more than anything else, and that word is “chozeh.” In English, there are two separate meanings for the word “chozeh.” One is “visionary,” and Herzl, who was defined as the State Visionary, represents the vision and belief in the establishment of the Jewish state. The second is “contract,” and Herzl was the one who drafted the contract between the Jewish People and their homeland. In Hebrew, it sounds so much better, clearer, and more real.
Pollard Reverses Course, Retracts Support for Ayelet Shaked
Earlier in the day, Pollard had endorsed Shaked, saying he had shown “misplaced loyalty in our last government” but maintained she “realizes the mistake” and would “serve Israel in a way that will safeguard both our core interests and our honor.”
“After talks that took place recently and seemed positive, and after my words regarding Ayelet Shaked were published this morning, it became clear to me that she refuses to make necessary changes to her list and to commit that she will only join a right-wing government that will preserve the Jewish identity of the country,” Pollard said in a statement quoted by Israel’s Channel 2 News political journalist Amit Segal.
“This raises real concerns that she will once again transfer votes from the right to the left,” Pollard said, adding, “That’s why I retract my support for her.”
In response to Pollard’s message, Shaked issued her own statement.
“I was happy to hear this morning about Jonathan Pollard’s support for me,” she said.
“The poisonous machine that was directed at him from the moment he announced his support for me put Jonathan in an impossible situation and I’m glad he pulled himself out of the eye of the storm.
“An Israeli hero like Jonathan deserves to be at the heart of the consensus and not become a target in the toxic discourse of Israeli politics.
“As I have said at every step in recent weeks, only together will we win. This is the secret of the strength of the people of Israel.”
Harav Kook the iconic leader of religious Zionism who was Israel's first Chief Rabbi, was a Torah giant even as a young man.
In each generation, the Holy One Blessed Be He sends special souls into the world to shepherd the Jewish People. Shepherds like Avraham Avinu, Moshe Rabenu, King David, and Rabbi Akiva.
Rabbi Avraham Yitzhak HaKohen Kook had a soul like theirs. His soul was filled with a burning love for Hashem, for Torah, for the Land of Israel, for all the Jewish People and for all of mankind. Avraham Yitzhak HaKohen Kook was born in the Hebrew month of Elul, in the year 1865, in the town of Griva, Russia.
A story is told about him as a young boy in Heder. During breaks in their learning, the children would line up outside with their school bags on their backs. Avraham would march them around the yard as if leading them on a voyage. The boys would call out: “Where are we going?” and their young leader would reply in a joyous voice: “To Eretz Yisrael!”
Yad Vashem Hires an anti-Israel for a senior post.
Yad Vashem is embroiled in a deep controversy over .the choice of Dr. Dan Sachor for a senior post, head administrator of the library, at the Holocaust Memorial and museum in Jerusalem.
Sachor is a "post-Zionist". Politically, he is on the extreme Left fringe of Israeli politics.
What earns him this title?
-Comparing Israeli pilots to terrorist suicide bombers is an example.
-Another is refusing service in the Israeli army of "occupation" and accusing Israel of purposely and regularly killing Palestinian Arab children.
-Still another is calling for the end of American support for Israel.
-Add to that, supporting the BDS boycott of Israel, insisting that Hamas is a movement interested in peace and that Israel should just talk. with them and ask for nothing more...
-And being proud of the fact that his organization includes terrorists with Jewish blood on their hands.
-Joining protests in NY together with other anti-Israel groups against Israel's actions in Gaza
Are Jews in the US in Danger? More Than 40% Think American Civil War Likely in Next Decade
Guess who becomes the scapegoat in the event of a civil war?
A troubling new survey found that 43% of Americans – and more than half of “strong Republicans” – believe that a civil war is at least somewhat likely to occur within the next 10 years. Among strong Democrats and independents that figure was 40%, while 54% of strong Republicans said the same.
The poll also found that 65% say political violence has increased since the start of 2021, and 62% believe that political violence will increase in the next few years.
The findings comes from a poll by YouGov and the Economist, follows heated rhetoric from Trump supporters in the wake of the unprecedented FBI raid on Mar-a-Lago, including from Sen. Lindsey Graham, who predicted “riots in the streets” if Trump is indicted.
Most experts believe that a full-scale war, like the 1861-1865 civil war, remains highly unlikely. But many worry that increasing rhetoric and division could result in isolated or even coordinated attacks against political figures.
“Countries with democracies and governments as strong as America’s do not fall into civil war. But if our institutions weaken, the story could be different,” said Rachel Kleinfeld a civil conflict specialist at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace.

Skeleton examinations reveal 1000-year-old Murder of 17 Jews by the British Murderers
Long before Hitler ym"s and the Nazis, there was England. Their history of torturing Jews started when William the Conqueror invaded and conquered England. Jew Hatred is in their blood and DNA. Two hundred years before Spain expelled their Jews in 1492, the British antisemites expelled their Jews in 1290, but that was after they tortured, murdered and hung up them up.
Shakespeare wrote his antisemitic novel The Merchant of Venice in 1598 in England, 306 years of England being "yudinrein". Shakespeare had such Jew hatred in his blood, without ever having even met a Jew in his entire life, as the Jews didn't return until 1656.
Last week I had the opportunity to visit the Lehi Museum in Tel Aviv. The museum is housed in the building where the British murdered Avraham Stern in cold blood. In that museum and in the "Hagana" Museum you learn about the British barbarians, and how they loved the Arabs and hated the Jews. The British turned back boatloads of Jews who had escaped the Nazi Concentration Camps and sent them back to their deaths.
In 1929, they were warned and knew that the Arabs were going to commit rape and murder in 1929 and yet stood by and did nothing to protect their Jewish subjects.
Genetic analysis of human skeletal remains in Norwich, England, found by construction workers preparing the site for a shopping center has provided serious evidence that the bones are those of at least 17 Ashkenazi Jews who were murdered during a proven historic episode of antisemitic violence on February 6, 1190.
The genomes from a medieval mass burial show that Ashkenazi-associated hereditary diseases pre-date the 12th century. The findings resulted from a revised radiocarbon analysis of the bones carried out by experts at London’s Natural History Museum, University College and Francis Crick Institute; the Institute of Organismic and Molecular Evolution in Mainz, Germany; the University of Cambridge; and the Archive Center in Norwich.
They have just been published in the journal Current Biology under the title “Genomes from a medieval mass burial show Ashkenazi-associated hereditary diseases pre-date the 12th century.”
In 2004, construction workers excavating land in central Norwich – about 160 kilometers northeast of London – as part of the Chapelfield shopping center development uncovered the bones.
The position of the remains, their completeness and their conversion by archaeologists into a cleaned and articulated skeleton suggested that they had all been buried in a single event shortly after their death.
Jonathan Pollard endorses Ayelet Shaked
Former Israeli spy Jonathan Pollard announced Tuesday morning his endorsement of Interior Minister Ayelet Shaked and her Zionist Spirit party in the upcoming 2022 election.
In a video statement, Pollard declared himself an independent, but said that given the “difficult and dangerous time” Israel is in, he has decided to offer his support to Shaked.
“As everyone knows, I am not a member of any political party or faction. And to date, I have not formally endorsed any individual or slate,” Pollard said.
“I’m an independent whose only loyalty and concern is for the Land and People of Israel.”
“Because of my unqualified love of this country, and my dedication to her survival and wellbeing, I must now endorse someone who I know will serve Israel in a way that will safeguard both our core interests and our honor.”
“That person is Ayelet Shaked.”
“Yes, she exhibited misplaced loyalty in our last government. But I truly believe that she realizes the mistake that she made and will not repeat her error.”
“We need her now, free and clear of the bad influences that hurt both her personal reputation and her political credibility.”
“We all make errors in judgment. The difference is between those of us who refuse to acknowledge such errors, and those of us who recognize their errors and commit never to repeat them.”
“I believe that Ayelet Shaked is just such a person and deserves to be given an opportunity to continue being part of Israel’s leadership.”
“At this difficult and dangerous time in our history, we need and deserve a proven patriot like Ayelet Shaked.”
4,000-Year-Old Israelite Settlement Discovered in Binyamin ... Excavations in New Square & Monoroe Discover Only Horse Bones from the Apachie Indians
An archeological dig at Tel Tibnah in the Binyamin region has led to the exposure of a 4,000-year-old settlement, dated to the time when the Israelites entered the Land of Israel (2100 BCE).
At the end of a month of excavations at Tel Tibnah on behalf of the Binyamin Regional Council and Bar Ilan University, many finds were also uncovered from an ancient city that served as the capital of the district at the end of the Second Temple period.
The excavation at Tel Tibnah, directed by Dr. Davir Raviv from Bar Ilan University, is one of the first in Judea and Samaria since the 1980s.
US Citizen Imprisoned in China to Be Executed After Losing Appeal
An American citizen faces execution in China now that his appeal of a murder conviction has been rejected.
Shadeed Abdulmateen was convicted of killing his former girlfriend, and the death sentence was announced in April.
After a trial by the High People’s Court of Eastern China’s Zhejiang Province, Abdulmateen’s appeal was rejected, CCTV reported, according to Reuters.
“The High People’s Court of Zhejiang Province … found that the facts found by the Ningbo Intermediate People’s Court were clear, the evidence was true and sufficient, the conviction was accurate, the sentence was appropriate and the trial procedure was lawful, so it made the above ruling,” CCTV reported.
The Supreme People’s Court will review the decision, which is largely a formality.
A U.S. Embassy spokesman said diplomats were “aware of a court decision related to a U.S. citizen.”
“We take seriously our responsibility to assist U.S. citizens abroad and are monitoring the situation,” the spokesman said. “Due to privacy considerations, we have no further comment.”
Abdulmateen had taught English at Ningbo University of Technology, according to the South China Morning Post.
Abdulmateen had told the woman, whose name was only given as Chen, that he was divorced when he was not, state broadcaster CCTV said.
The two met in 2019 and soon became involved in a relationship.
China’s state-run Global Times said that events spiraled after Chen wanted to end the affair.
“Starting in May 2021, Chen said several times that she wanted a break-up, but she was always refused and verbally threatened by the man,” the Global Times reported.
According to the court, Abdulmateen met Chen at a bus stop in Ningbo, Zhejiang province in June 2021.
He then killed her with a “folding knife,” the court ruled.
Abdulmateen’s “premeditated revenge killing, stabbing and cutting Chen’s face and neck several times, resulting in Chen’s death, was motivated by vile motives, resolute intent and cruel means, and the circumstances of the crime were particularly bad and the consequences particularly serious, and should be punished according to law,” CCTV reported, according to CNN.
Amnesty International has reported that China sentences thousands of people to death each year, but the country does not release any official execution numbers.
Gov Hochul Satmar's"darling shiksa" Tells New York Republicans to "get out of town"
D-N.Y., sparked intense outrage after lambasting New York Republican candidates during a speech last week, telling them to "get out of town" and "head to Florida" where they belong.
The outrage simmered across social media early Monday with Twitter users slamming the New York governor for her intolerant angle and accusing her of isolating all Republicans living in the Empire State.
"We're here to say that the era of Trump and Zeldin and Molinaro – just jump on a bus and head down to Florida where you belong. Get out of town," she said.
Frum girl student outed as transgender
In the upcoming issue of B'Sheva, the weekly publication brings to light a shocking revelation about events that took place in a religious elementary school in Israel. The affair raises questions about the systemic mismanagement of a sensitive issue for the general public and religious sector in particular.
The affair came to light after parents contacted Roni Sassover, Chief Executive Officer of the 'Meirim' social welfare organization, telling her that about a month ago, they accidentally found out that one of the students happens to be a girl taking on a male identity.
When concerned parents contacted the school administration, they learned to their astonishment that staff was well aware of the secret but had knowingly withheld the information.
After learning of the deception, enraged parents sharply criticised decisions made by the school which, in their opinion, "abandoned their children." Parents of the student's classmates claim that the conduct of the school staff runs contrary to the values of the religious school system, risking their children discovering the truth about their classmate by accident and without any prior preparation.
Zhviller Rebbe passes away suddenly
The Sanz Zviller Rebbe, Rabbi Shlomo Goldman, passed away suddenly at the age of 66.
Rabbi Goldman's family said that the Rebbe suffered a heart attack at his home and collapsed and lost consciousness.
A Hatzalah team was called to the scene and attempted to resuscitate the Rebbe, but he passed away, to the heartbreak of his family and Chasidim.
Rabbi Goldman worked for 20 years as a mashgiach at the Rozhin Yeshiva. He became the Rebbe 12 years ago following the passing of his father.
French Jewish Man Slaughtered and burned By Muslim Roommate
A Jewish man was murdered in a gruesome attack by his Muslim roommate, according to a Monday report by a French Jewish anti-Semitism watchdog group.
According to a statement by the National Bureau of Vigilance against Antisemitism, 34-year-old Eyal Haddad was murdered on August 20. the incident occurred in Longperrier, just northeast of Paris.
According to the report, the Muslim murderer originally told police that he committed the heinous act over 100 euros he was owed, but later admitted he did it because the victim was Jewish.
The suspect, identified as Mohamed Dridi, “smashed the skull of his victim with an axe, then he burned his face and even began to bury the body,” the BNVCA said.
He then turned himself in to police, where he was arrested and placed in detention.
French authorities have not yet confirmed the incident, but already members of the Jewish community are sounding the alarm on social media in regard to the lack of official responses.
Damien Rieu, a far-right French activist and member of Eric Zemmour’s party, was the only politician to mention the killing on Twitter.
“Still no press article to inform us about the circumstances of the death of #EyalHaddad?” he questioned.
