Teacher Chana Pinchasi Seeks a Student of hers to apologize

 

I did a terrible thing in the 90s and my heart still hurts. I am writing because I am looking for the student I committed a crime against.

I was a literature teacher at the 'Traditional' high school, at 'Beit-Alliance'. I had a 'class' of wonderful female students .

I was young and stupid, and I had arrogance and I was drawn to the students who were eloquent like me, and had similar quick minds. I wasn't even aware of it.

Part of the matriculation was conducted orally, with an examiner who was a teacher from another school while I was sitting in the classroom. 

On the day of the test, it was the turn of one of the smart and diligent students whose pace was slower. 

She read a poem we learned (by Trainin, I remember exactly) and made a mistake in reading and interpreting it.

I failed her in the test, I knew that she was there throughout the year in every class and she deserved a good grade because she studied seriously, with love, attentively and persistently. She knew a lot, and it was a human and understandable mistake that the excitement and stress of the test created. She deserved a big boost and nurturing (what the hell are grades anyway!) I didn't give it to her.

I remember her mother calling me, I heard the tears but I hardened my heart under the 'professional' pretext. And it was pure evil and arrogance and stupidity.

I think about her all these years and want to ask her forgiveness, and am ashamed that I forgot her name. I want you to know that she was great and I was spoiled. I caused a very unnecessary injustice to her at such a fragile age. I can't take back the pain but I want to ask for forgiveness. Even if decades have passed, I am still filled with guilt and shame and pray that she has a good life.

Social network, help me find it? It is also possible to reach me in private email

עשיתי מעשה נורא בשנות ה90 וליבי עדיין נוקף. אני כותבת כי אני מחפשת את התלמידה שפשעתי כלפיה.

הייתי מורה לספרות בתיכון 'המסורתי' כשהיה בשוק, ב'בית-אליאנס'. היתה לי 'מגמה' עם אוסף תלמידות נפלאות שתלו בי את עיניהן.

הייתי צעירה וטיפשה, והיתה בי יוהרה ונמשכתי אל התלמידות שהיו רהוטות כמוני, עם קצב מהיר. אפילו לא הייתי מודעת לזה.

חלק מהבגרות נערכה בעל-פה, עם בוחנת שהיא מורה מבית ספר אחר כשאני יושבת בכיתה. (או אולי זה היה בבחינת ה'מגן', הזיכרון מתעתע בי)

ביום המבחן, הגיע תורה של אחת התלמידות הנבונות והשקדניות שהקצב שלה היה איטי יותר. היא קראה שיר שלמדנו (של טריינין, אני זוכרת בדיוק) וטעתה בקריאה ובפרשנות שלו.

אני הכשלתי אותה במבחן. זו היתה קריאה רחוקה אבל אפשרית ובכלל זו ספרות, ואני ידעתי שהיא היתה שם לאורך השנה בכל מאודה והגיע לה ציון טוב מפני שהיא למדה ברצינות, באהבה, בקשב ובהתמדה. היא ידעה המון, וזו היתה טעות אנושית ומובנת שההתרגשות והמתח מהמבחן יצרו. היא היתה ראויה לחיזוק גדול ולטיפוח (מה זה בכלל ציונים, לכל הרוחות!) לא נתתי לה.

אני זוכרת שאמא שלה התקשרה אלי, שמעתי את הדמעות והקשחתי את ליבי בתואנה 'מקצועית'. וזה היה רוע צרוף והתנשאות וטפשות.

אני חושבת עליה כל השנים אלה ורוצה לבקש את סליחתה, ומתביישת ששכחתי את שמה. אני רוצה שתדע שהיא היתה מצויינת ואני קלקלתי. גרמתי עוול מיותר מאד בגיל שברירי כל כך. אין בכוחי להחזיר את הכאב אבל אני רוצה לבקש סליחה. גם אם חלפו עשורים, אני עדיין מלאה באשמה ובושה ומתפללת שיש לה חיים טובים.

רשת חברתית, תעזרי לי למצא אותה? אפשר גם בפרטי.

Berkeley Develops Jewish-Free Zones

 

After we published this op-ed by Kenneth Marcus, Erwin Chemerinsky, Dean of Berkeley School of Law, sent us a response. You can read it below, followed by a response from Marcus.

If it wasn’t so frightening, one might be able to recognize the irony in the sight of campus progressives trying so hard to signal progressive virtue that they fall victim to a deeper moral shame.

Nine different law student groups at the University of California at Berkeley’s School of Law, my own alma mater, have begun this new academic year by amending bylaws to ensure that they will never invite any speakers that support Israel or Zionism. And these are not groups that represent only a small percentage of the student population. They include Women of Berkeley Law, Asian Pacific American Law Students Association, Middle Eastern and North African Law Students Association, Law Students of African Descent and the Queer Caucus. Berkeley Law’s Dean Erwin Chemerinsky, a progressive Zionist, has observed that he himself would be banned under this standard, as would 90% of his Jewish students.

It is now a century since Jewish-free zones first spread to the San Francisco Bay Area (“No Dogs. No Jews”). Nevertheless, this move seems frightening and unexpected, like a bang on the door in the night.

Lev Tahor Leaders Released By Mexican Court

 

 In a new development in the Lev Tahor saga, the two cult leaders who were still in custody were reportedly released Thursday by a Mexican court, signifying that the court had not verified the suspicions of human trafficking and other crimes assigned to them. The crimes carry sentences of up to 20 years in prison.

Menahem Mendel Alter and Moshe Yosef Rosner were the only two members of the cult left in custody, after the others had succeeded in escaping from custody on Wednesday night.

Lev Tahor sources confirmed that the two had been released and stressed that this proved that the entire arrest operation was a false arrest as they had not been involved in human trafficking or any other offenses. However Mexican enforcement officials told local news outlets that they had gathered evidence of such crimes and that the two would have to stand trial for them.

A Mexican official involved in the arrest said that the escape was planned meticulously. “People waited for them with cars and they fled within minutes. The official said that “we are trying to locate them and return them to custody.”

The official said that the members of the cult had caused extensive damage to the detention facility. One of the guards was injured during the escape.

A Lev Tahor source told Kikar Hashabat that “they can continue searching. We have left the country already, we planned this operation well. Regarding the damage they caused, the source said that “they can’t keep us in subhuman conditions, this was our response to the conditions of custody.”

Teen Climate Change Hypocrite Izzy Cook rips flights to Fiji then admits to recent trip

 

Note to my readers: Google removed the "Live Interview" clip from my site 

A teen eco-warrior is going viral for a live radio interview in which she ripped people flying to vacation hotspots like Fiji — before admitting she’d just got back from that exact trip with her family.

Izzy Cook, 16, left NewstalkZB host Heather du Plessis-Allan laughing hysterically with her admission Friday while discussing the Greta Thunberg-inspired School Strike 4 Climate she is leading in Wellington, New Zealand.

During the chat, the teen environmentalists pushed a plan for people to have to apply to take gas-guzzling flights and only for approved events.

When her interviewer asked if people would be “allowed to go to Fiji” and if such a trip would be deemed “necessary,” the teen replied firmly: “In the current climate crisis I don’t think that that’s necessary.”

After admitting that her own last flight was “maybe a few months ago,” Cook hesitated when asked where she’d flown to.

Izzy Cook, 16, left NewstalkZB host Heather du Plessis-Allan laughing hysterically with her admission Friday while discussing the Greta Thunberg-inspired School Strike 4 Climate she is leading in Wellington, New Zealand.

During the chat, the teen environmentalists pushed a plan for people to have to apply to take gas-guzzling flights and only for approved events.

When her interviewer asked if people would be “allowed to go to Fiji” and if such a trip would be deemed “necessary,” the teen replied firmly: “In the current climate crisis I don’t think that that’s necessary.”

After admitting that her own last flight was “maybe a few months ago,” Cook hesitated when asked where she’d flown to.

The teen finally conceded that it was “pretty ironic.”

“But to be honest it’s not really a trip that I wanted to go on but I can’t really get out of it because my parents wanted to go,” she insisted.

The radio host asked if the teen was “embarrassed that your parents did that to the planet and then forced you to do it as well?”

“Of course I’m not embarrassed,” Cook said firmly.

Asked if she had “a terrible time” on her sun-kissed vacation, the teen admitted, “not really” — sparking more loud laughter from her interviewer.

“I’m sorry, mate,” du Plessis-Allan said, struggling to control her laughter enough to call the teen “such a champion” with a “brilliant future ahead” of her, and promising to have her back on the show in the future.

Clips of the exchange quickly went viral, with many replying with laughing emojis and calling it hypocrisy “at it’s finest” and “on steroids.”

“Another elitist spouting do as I say not what I do,” one person commentated, while another said: “It’s all virtue signaling from these libs.”

“She’s already like a typical politician! Hypocrite!” she said.

However, Cook’s mom was not laughing — tearing into her daughter’s interviewer in a scathing op-ed for online mag The Spinoff.

“On Friday evening, I listened in horror as my 16-year-old daughter had a phone conversation with someone who appeared to be bullying her, laughing at her, and talking over her,” Rose Cook wrote.

“As soon as she got off the call I demanded to know who the hell was speaking to my child in this way,” she said.

Cook said that although her daughter’s activism had given her “some experience with dealing with the media,” she “wasn’t prepared for Heather du Plessis-Allan.”

“Commentators like du Plessis-Allan don’t give a s–t about climate change,” she seethed, accusing the radio host of relying on “‘gotcha’ moments for point-scoring and discrediting their opponents.”

“They seem particularly keen to go after our youth, whose future is most at stake,” the defensive mom wrote.

She, too, insisted that the teen had not wanted to go and instead “wanted to stay home and study.”

“But, selfishly, I insisted, because I wanted to spend this time with her,” the mom claimed.

“Heather du Plessis-Allan became a mother this year. I hope that no-one ever speaks to her child the way she did to mine,” the mom ended her angry rebuttal.

DIN: Mrs Cook...if your daughter can't take the heat tell her to get the hell out of the kitchen!

The European Union (EU) Commission expressed "sorrow" at the killing of terrorists

 

The European Union (EU) Commission expressed "sorrow" at the killing of terrorists Wednesday morning and called the IDF actions an "invasion."

In an official statement following the killing of the terrorists in Jenin Wednesday morning, the EU Commission in the Palestinian Authority said, "Deplored by the loss of life and alarmed by the spike in violence today in Jenin following ISF incursions with several Palestinians killed and at least 40 injured ... Violence must stop immediately."

In response, the heads of Lach Yerushalayim and the Im Tirtzu Movement slammed the Commission's statement as, "Unacceptable political audacity!"

Maor Zemach, chairman of Lach Yerushalayim, and Matan Peleg, CEO of Im Tirtzu, called for the expulsion of the EU ambassador to the PA territories Sven von Burgsdorff from Israel:

"This is an unimaginable political interference and the support for terrorism by an official representative from the European Union," the two said. "There is no other way to describe an expression of mourning for the deaths of terrorists!"

"We call on the Foreign Minister and the interim Prime Minister to immediately announce the expulsion of this hostile foreign agent that is only provoking the territory and supporting the terrorists!"

Chareidie Achdus Before Yom Kippur ..Aryeh Deri, Moshe Gafni no longer on speaking terms

 

The head of the Degel HaTorah party (a component faction of United Torah Judaism), MK Moshe Gafni, is no longer on speaking terms with Shas party head Aryeh Deri, according to a senior official in UTJ who spoke with Israel National News.

Gafni is "furious with Deri," according to the source, due to Gafni's belief that it is Deri who was behind briefings against Gafni concerning his connections with Prime Minister Yair Lapid.

UTJ is apparently also taken aback by recent boasts on the part of Justice Minister Gideon Sa'ar, who is claiming that he has excellent ties to haredi politicians. "We haven't spoken with Sa'ar for over a month," the source said. "In fact, our representatives have cut off all ties to him, and are very angry with him," a statement which was independently confirmed by Israel National News.

Part of the reason for the anger felt toward Sa'ar is due to his and his fellow party member Education Minister Yifat Shasha-Biton's intervention in the issue of haredi education with regard to the "Belz outline" that almost caused UTJ to split, a rift that was averted at the eleventh hour and that could have proven catastrophic for the entire right-wing bloc.

"Gantz is great, but not for being given the opportunity to try to form a coalition - there's no chance he could succeed there," the source told Israel National News. "But we have good connections with his office staff on various communal issues, something that cannot be said of Gideon Sa'ar."

Asked to comment on the possibility that a party other than the Likud will succeed in forming the next government, the source insisted that whatever the outcome of the elections, the alliance between religious and traditionally minded parties would hold strong. "We will go together either into the next government or into the opposition," he said.

FBI Using Gestapo Tactics to Arrest Pro-Life Activist with 15 FBI Trucks & Cars

 

The wife of the Catholic pro-life activist who was arrested in front of their children by dozens of heavily armed federal agents told Fox News on Wednesday that the “devastating” raid has left their family traumatized and in need of counseling.

Mark Houck, an outspoken pro-life activist and author from Pennsylvania, was arrested early last Friday in front of his wife and seven children at his rural Kintnersville home in Bucks County after dozens of FBI agents showed up on his lawn and began pounding on their front door. In an exclusive interview on “Tucker Carlson Tonight” Wednesday, Houck’s wife, Ryan-Marie, recounted the moment she looked out her front window to find roughly 25 uniformed agents with guns and shields surrounding her front door.

“My entire front yard, you could barely see it, it was covered with at least 15 big trucks and cars,” the mother of seven said. “There were 20, 25, 30, men, women, completely in jackets with shields and helmets and guns. They were behind cars. It was something I would never expect to see on my front lawn.”

 About 20 members of an extreme ultra-orthodox Jewish sect overpowered guards and escaped a government shelter in southern Mexico where they had been held since one of their leaders was arrested last Friday on organized crime and human trafficking allegations.

Mostly made up of children wearing long, flowing robes, members of the Lev Tahor sect pushed their way out of the complex Wednesday night, climbing over one guard from a private security company who had fallen to the ground. The federal government’s shelter for children and families in Huixtla usually receives migrants detained by immigration officials.

They climbed aboard a waiting truck outside and headed toward Mexico’s border with Guatemala. Local police, National Guard and Mexico’s immigration agency said they did not pursue them.

On Friday, authorities arrested Menachem Endel Alter of Jerusalem, a leader of the Lev Tahor sect on allegations of organized crime and human trafficking in Tapachula near the Guatemalan border. Members of the sect said a second leader was also arrested, but authorities did not confirm it.

Lev Tahor has had legal problems elsewhere.

Last November, two leaders of the group were convicted of kidnapping and child sexual exploitation crimes in New York. They allegedly kidnapped two children from their mother to return a 14-year-old girl to an illegal sexual relationship with an adult male.

The sect is known to have members in Canada, the United States, Mexico, Guatemala and Israel.

 Ramy Abdu is chairman of the Euro-Mediterranean Human Rights Monitor and has been a regular speaker at the United Nations Human Rights Council.

He is also an antisemitic bigot.

Abdu tweeted this video, showing popular Israeli Orthodox singer Avraham Fried, wishing a sweet and happy New Year to the entire nation of Israel, with the soldiers of the Netzach Battalion then singing their own song repeating their name.

But Abdu, who was born in Gaza, chose to describe the events of the video quite differently from the reality, claiming that the "rabbi" and the soldiers were singing racist chants and insults against Muslims and Arabs. 

Over half of U.S. students support boycotting Israel

 

More than half of U.S students exposed BDS movement's calls to boycott Israel - support the group, a Foreign Ministry survey conducted on campuses, released on Wednesday showed.

The Foreign Ministry conducted its survey among American students after BDS was found to have reached more than half of the student body on U.S. campuses.

Support for a boycott of Israel was heard from students who have an interest in politics, and relatively high support was found among private school students and people aged 30 or older.

The findings alarmed Israeli officials and indicated that the BDS movement has considerable influence on campuses.

The survey also showed that 48% of the students in the United States support Israel and believe it is an asset.

The survey which was commissioned by the Foreign Ministry and conducted earlier this month, was part of an efforts to increase support for Israel in the United States, among different age groups.

50% of students reported they viewed Israel positively compared to 36% who said they did not have a positive view of the country. The data indicated there is more support among American Republicans polled than among those who identify as Democrats or people who claim to have little interest in politics.

Older Americans are found to be more likely to see Israel in a positive light and men more so than women, according to the survey.

Among university students in general, support for Israel is lower than in the general, over 18 population.

The Foreign Ministry officials said the data is not all bad because students tend to be more extreme in their pThey said the students were more critical of Israel based on moral arguments and liberal views, rather than on the country's economic and technical successes.

The older people polled named Israel's technological superiority and the fact that it was the only democracy in the Middle East as reasons for their support.

olitical views.

The conductors of the survey assumed that paradoxically students believe that by boycotting Israel, it would be more likely to change policies on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

Those who said they supported Israel, also hoped for a different position towards Palestinians.

The ministry said their findings showed more and more pro-Israeli Jewish students said they were afraid to speak out on campuses.

They experienced discrimination by those who oppose Israel and take over public space, sometimes using coercion, the ministry said.

There is a lot of fake news, especially in times of conflict in Israel, and that's what feeds the BDS and provides a reason to support the boycott and the movement, the officials said.

Biden Intervening in Israeli Elections and has Senior US official warn against appointing Ben-Gvir a minister

 

Are the Americans meddling in Israeli elections? According to a report in the Thursday edition of Israel Hayom, officials from within the Biden administration as well as Jewish organizations in the United States have expressed their concern at the possibility that the head of the right-wing Otzma Yehudit party, MK Itamar Ben-Gvir, will be appointed a minister in the next Israel government, if opposition leader MK Benjamin Netanyahu succeeds in forming a coalition following elections to be held in early November.

Recent polls have suggested the distinct possibility that the largest Israeli political party, the Likud, will manage to cobble together a coalition with at least the requisite 61 Knesset members. "The administration is monitoring developments with concern," one senior American official is quoted as saying, "and is very anxious regarding the possibility that the head of Otzma Yehudit will be appointed a minister in a future Israeli government."

He added that, "Of course we are following what's happening over there, but at the present stage it's too early to comment. However, if we reach the point where such things are under discussion, there's no doubt that the administration will clarify its position, and for us, that would be an immense problem."

The unnamed official further noted that opposition leader Netanyahu is well aware of the "problematic" aspects of appointing Ben-Gvir as a minister. "Anyone who has any sense realizes how problematic this is. Just look at this man's past history, the things he's done, the statements he's made. This isn't someone we want to see in government. Netanyahu is a wise and seasoned politician and he understands the ramifications of such a development. This has yet to be discussed with him since, as I said, it's still early days. But there's no doubt that he's aware of this."

Giorgia Meloni to be Italy's next PM .. Left already smearing her

 

Giorgia Meloni, the leader of Italy's Brothers of Italy party, is poised to become the country's prime minister after her party received 26 percent of the vote in the Italian parliamentary elections on Sunday.

Right wing and center-right parties won a majority in the elections, giving Meloni the task of forming a governing coalition.

The Brothers of Italy party is considered a far-right party and has drawn accusations of facism and semi-facism. 

Meloni has attempted to position herself as a more pro-Israel candidate in the recent elections. Last week, she told the Israel Hayom newspaper that “Israel represents the only fully-fledged democracy in the broader Middle East, and we defend without any reservations its right to exist and live in security. I believe that the existence of the State of Israel is vital, and Fratelli d’Italia will make every effort to invest in greater cooperation between our countries.”

While the Israeli government has yet to comment on Meloni's victory, Interior Minister Ayelet Shaked congratulated her on her election.

"Congratulations to Giorgia Meloni on her victory. The right won in Italy and will win in Israel as well. Yes, women can do anything, even lead a country," Shaked wrote on Twitter.

Meretz chaiwoman Zehava Galon criticized Shaked for congratulating Meloni, responding that "women can also do facism."

Gedalia Was Murdered Because He "Refused to listen to Loshon Hara"

 

Tzom Gedaliah is a fast day that commemorates a tragic time in our people’s history, one that the Gemorah (RH 18b) equates with the destruction of the Beis HaMikdash itself – a jarring thought. 

After the destruction of the first Bais HaMikdosh, the Babylonians left a group of Jews in Eretz Yisrael. 

Gedaliah, the governor of that group and the leader of Klal Yisroel at the time, refused to "mekabeil" loshon hara against Yeshmael ben Nesanya who wanted to murder him. and refused to take protective measures against Yishmael, even when he was warned by Yochanan Ben Korayach of Yishmael Ben Nesanya’s malevolent intent (Yirmiyahu 40:16).

 The consequences were quite grave indeed. Gedaliah and all his men were brutally murdered (Yirmiyahu 41:2).Gedaliah was actually murdered on Rosh HaShana, but it was set aside to the day after Rosh haShana because of the Yom Tov.

If he had listened to the loshon hara, the Bais Ha'mikdash would never have been destroyed.

Russia Launched Iranian Attack Drones At Uman On Rosh Hashanah

A Ukrainian news report said that Russian forces intentionally launched Iranian Shahad-136 kamikaze drones at Uman in an attempt to harm Jews gathered there for Rosh Hashanah.

According to the report, the Ukrainian armed forces shot down over ten drones in southern Ukraine, some of which were directed at Uman.

A member of the Ukrainian security services told a Ukrainian media outlet that “planned terrorist operations against Israeli citizens are one of the conditions for Iranʼs transfer of drones to Russia. As you know, this is not the first example of cooperation between the two terrorist states.”

The site that published the report is considered a reliable Ukrainian site and the information in the report is attributed to “sources in the Ukrainian security services.” The site specifically states that Ukraine has information according to which the Iranians set two conditions for Russia when selling the drones – one of them being attacking Uman. The second condition was not specified.
