50 Israeli Supreme Court Scary Decisions.. show more than any essay could why Israel needs judicial reform ASAP

 

There are many reasons for effecting judicial reform in Israel, not the least of them the way Supreme Court judges are chosen and the absolute power held by the unelected legal advisor to the Prime Minister (who also functions as the attorney general) and the legal advisors to the government ministries. Add the absence of a demand for standing, the fact that everything, including religious, military and economic decisions can be (and are) adjudicated in the courts, the fact that a justice's opinion of the "reasonableness" of an issue allows him to strike it down and that all of the above are particular to Israel.

However, there is a more basic reason change is needed, a factor that the current liberal makeup of the courts does not deem worthy of taking into account. And as long as new justices are chosen by the current ones, in a process that seems almost like cloning, that will not change:

srael's justices must first and foremost take into account that Israel is a Jewish state.

They must take into account that Israel has been battling since its establishment against barbaric and cruel enemies.

They must realize how many families have offspring in the army and what kind of split second decisions young soldiers in danger have to make.

They must see to it that Israel is a place where procedures and regulations that can save Jewish lives, both of soldiers and civilians, are in a special category.

Israel should be a place where those who lift a hand against its Jewish citizens because they are Jewish know they will be punished swiftly and severely.

Israel should be a place where the right of each Jewish citizen to live according to halakha if he so wishes is sacrosanct.

Israel should be a place where every effort is made to find legal ways to uphold settling the land of our fathers, including Judea and Samaria, since this is government policy.

When the Satmar Rebbe Mocked Jews Going to Meron on Lag Beomer Said it's "not a mesorah at all"

This was way back in 1995, when R' Aron Teitelbaum,the Satmar Rebbe of Monroe, was upset that his entire community got up and left to fly to the Zionist country on Lag Beomer, and he was left with hardly a minyan. He first banned and threatened to throw out any bochur who flew to the Zionists for Lag Beomer, but they left anyway. 

In the video below given in Yiddish he mocks and ridicules those who find the Lag Beomer rituals sacred! He asks "is there halachos on high or how many stories the pyre has to be? How many pieces of wood is required? How long does it have to burn?"

It didn't take too long before he took a 360 degree turn and made up his own festivities, halachos and minhagim!

Rabbi Harold Kushner, author of ‘When Bad Things Happen to Good People,’ dies at 88

 

 Many years ago I read his book, because this question is something that frum people quietly ask themselves, not in a public forum, not wanting to brand themselves "apikorsim." I heard this discussed in shul by survivors who were dragged thru hell just a few years prior. I heard this question come up in very frum Shiva houses. This is discussed openly in kaballa seforim and no one accuses them of being "apikorsim." 

But the question is a lot stronger than their answers.

So because of my curiosity of what Kushner would say, I read the book cover to cover as it is very easy reading.

It seems that Harold Kushner a Conservative or Reform rabbi lost a child and because of this loss he decided to put pen to paper and take a shot at it. 

I was very disappointed with his answer. He did find comfort in his answer, but I found it very disturbing.

He basically tells people who have had a tragedy such as losing a child, not to take it personally, since Hashem is not the one who masterminded this, since Hashem doesn't target you or your family personally, Hashem, according to his hypotheses, lets the world run its course with absolutely no intervention (chas ve'sholom), and therefore events like the Holocaust and pogroms happen. It left me asking myself, how did Kushner find any comfort in that?

A frum Jew that goes through an enormous tragedy such as losing a child doesn't want to hear that Hashem just "walked away, and let the world just happen." I don't think that he gets any comfort in that. He wants to know that there was a divine purpose for this child to be born, to this particular family , and that  this child was given x amount of years to fulfill his or her mission and tasks in this world and that Hashem is actually the One orchestrating all this and that this is all part of His plan. Knowing that it was not just a "coincidence" but was part of a greater plan, does give some comfort to the grieving family, the fact that Kushner didn't believe in this, is very sad, and it is even sadder, knowing that his book was a best seller, meaning that many people who were looking for answers may have found this book still wanting.

May Hashem comfort all those who have had these losses!

Rabbi Harold Kushner, one of the most influential congregational rabbis of the 20th century whose works of popular theology reached millions of people outside the synagogue, has died.

Kushner, who turned 88 on April 3, died Friday in Canton, Massachusetts, just miles from the synagogue where he had been rabbi laureate for more than three decades.

Kushner’s fairly conventional trajectory as a Conservative rabbi was altered shortly after arriving at Temple Israel of Natick when, on the day his daughter Ariel was born, his 3-year-old son Aaron was diagnosed with a fatal premature aging condition, progeria.

Meah Shearim Residents Hang Palestinian Flags all over Their Neighborhoods

 

These flags represent murderers, rapists and animals, yet Meah Shearim residents allowed those flags to hang an entire week. Not one resident, not one, protested this and not one removed this disgusting display of hate against their fellow Jews. To these tzaddikim, the Palestinian flag represents their philosophy of wanting to live under a Palestinian government.  

And the truth is that they actually can, they can move to Ramallah which is a part of Eretz Yisrael, but these hypocritical liars wouldn't do that because they know that in less than an hour the Palestinians would behead each and every one of them not even giving them a chance to line up to get on the cattle cars. 

I have the solution to this "Meah Seharim" problem, and whoever I talk to about this are very excited. 

I propose that the IDF take them all on buses and ship them just less than a mile away into Ir David now called Silwan, and bring in developers into Meah Shearim, raze the entire area and build Hi-Risers.!

It's a win win sutuation!

Police officers on Sunday raided the Mea Shearim neighborhood of Jerusalem after Palestinian flags were hung in the neighborhood as well as sprayed on the walls of the neighborhood.

The police officers led Jerusalem municipality employees to the places where the flags were hung and protected them as they removed them using ladders and painted over flags sprayed on neighborhood walls.

FJJ ...Newspaper for the "Flatbush Beards" Finally Has Article on Yom Haatzmeot on Page 86

 

So last year a letter to the editor in the FJJ (Flatbush Jewish Journal) asked why the FJJ wouldn't dedicate an article about Yom Hashoah, Yom Hazikoron  and Yom Ha'atzmeot. 

A Rabbi Moshe Boylen a "yankee" whose family was probably on the Mayflower and whose immediate family were roasting marshmallows and franks on the grill while millions of Jews were being gassed answered that letter (see side bar), stating that the "Gedolei Torah of the Yahadus HaChareidis" were against observing these events, as such, the FJJ following their "Daas Torah" decided not to mention it. 

I pointed out at the time that millions of Jews living in Israel were observing these events, and it therefore deserved at least an "honorable mention." I also pointed out that none of the Gedoilim that the FJJ follows experienced the Holocaust and were either born in the USA or emigrated before the worst calamity to have befallen the Jewish people occurred. Not only that, but to bolster his childish arguments he lied stating that ALL Gedoilim were on the same page of not setting aside a special day to remember the Holocaust. Nothing could be further from the truth, because I grew up during post Holocaust and I remember vividly Gedoilim advocating for a special Day.

I was told that Rabbi Boylen is a product of "Brisk" and if that is in fact true, it all makes sense as the Briskers were and are presently virulent haters of the founders of Israel, and are staunchly against giving them any Hakoras Ha'Toiv. I am not going into this debate now but just that you know, even though the "Briskers' deny it, they benefit from the country on many different levels. For example, they benefit from security including the IDF, they benefit when they buy milk and bread, items that are subsidized, they benefit when they take public transportation, they benefit when their garbage is being removed, they benefit by not paying Arnona on their building, they benefit when they give birth because health plans are subsidized etc etc. 

And now to my point, though the FJJ caters to the "Flatbush Beards" who are children of the Holocaust survivors and who are either at worst like Boylan, Israel haters, or at best indifferent, they decided this year to mention it, but they put it on  the bottom of page 86 with the byline reading:

"Yair Lapid to Boycott Israel's Main Independence Day Ceremony."

This was done to mock and denigrate a day sacred to millions of Jews, saying in effect that even Lapid the far leftist boycotted this event! 

This decision to talk about Yom Haatzmoat in this way, drips with sarcasm and belittles this joyous occasion which is observed by millions , and is the ultimate "sinas chinum!"

This very newspaper was hocking for a whole year how bad Lapid was for Chareidim, and yet to shame and dishonor and belittle Yom Haatzmoat they shlep out a maniacal hater of Chareidim to prove their point. 

I wonder if the editor before he decided to post this disgusting article whether he consulted "Daas Torah?" 

DemonRats Eating Their Own Viciously Attack Dianne Feinstein ..Biden is next!

 

If you’re feeling deprived of irony, watch the spectacle of the vicious attacks on Sen. Dianne Feinstein.

It’s a priceless example of the left eating its own and demonstrates how nasty it is — even when a fellow Democrat is on the menu. 

President Biden should also pay special attention.

The merciless effort to drive the ailing Feinstein out of office and into retirement could prove to be a dry run for a demand that an aged, declining Biden also get out of the way during a second term. 

Feinstein, 89, has been absent from the Senate since mid-February and was later diagnosed with shingles and hospitalized in California.

When she was released in early March, aides promised she would be back in Washington within weeks.

Citing “complications,” they now offer no timetable for the return of Feinstein, who has been in the Senate for 30 years. 

Shingles is not her only problem or even the biggest one to her tormentors.

Her original sin was to praise and hug GOP Sen. Lindsey Graham in October of 2020 after the final Judiciary Committee hearing on the Supreme Court nomination of Amy Coney Barrett. 

The left reacted with wild outrage and calls for her to quit the committee came instantly from activists as well as from formerly sensible scholars Norman Ornstein and Harvard’s Laurence Tribe. 

Although Feinstein voted against Barrett’s confirmation, the rabble still wanted blood and The New Yorker was soon painting a picture of a senator losing her marbles.

The magazine reported that Democratic colleagues were trying to convince her to step down after “concerning” episodes, including in a hearing where she asked a witness the same question twice. 

Later, the San Francisco Chronicle reported that associates said the senator’s memory was fading and that she was having trouble recognizing colleagues and following conversations. 

Leftists Announce Anti-Chareidi Protest: “We’ll Tell Chareidi Leaders – No More”

 

Just yesterday I posted a story how the Chareidie Yated told its readers not to participate in the pro-government protests.

 So how did that work out? 

Chareidim by in large dance on both weddings, they do not openly take any sides because they aren't sure who will be in power, and they are afraid that if they take sides then they will lose should the opposing side win. So even though they may scream and bark against Lapid, for example, they will never publicly humiliate him, even though they oppose his values, because come tomorrow he may be in power. Chareidim have no scruples and are a bunch of cowards , so when the Dati Leumi Rabbanim asked their flock to come out and protest to back the government, the Chareidim stayed home cowering in their homes. Just a few months ago Gafni, the head of Degel Ha'Torah, invited the anti-Torah Michali, to his daughter's wedding and the "machsheifah" danced with the kallah on the most important day of her life. This is while Michali was fighting CHareidim in the Knesset.  Chareidim are basically a bunch of "chanfeners" and there in no bottom low enough for them to go, but the leftists are not falling for it. 

And it backfired, the leftist don't care which side chareidim take, they hate them for who they are. The fact that Charedim stayed home and refused to participate in the protests of the right, meant absolutely zero, and now despite the burnt Bnei-brak Chulent and free water that they distribute to the protesters, the left will start openly fighting with the "neutral" chareidim. You cannot appease a tiger, just because you threw a slab of meat at him doesn't mean he won't come to devour you the first chance he gets.

Like every Motzei Shabbos in recent months, another left-wing protest against the Netanyahu government took place on Motzei Shabbos in Tel Aviv.

At the protest, the organizers announced another protest on Thursday – this time, against Chareidim and their plans for a new Chareidi draft law.

The protest will be called “National Equality Day – because there is no democracy without equality.”

The organizers stated: “The days when one side serves the state and also finances the yeshivos while trying to establish a halachic dictatorship here – are over.”

“On National Equality Day we will embark on dozens of protest actions throughout the country, with protests from the Goma intersection [in northern Israel] to Eilat. On this day, we will officially inform the Chareidi leadership – it’s over.”

Kikar H’Shabbat reporter Yishai Cohen responded to the report by stating: “From the first moment, it was clear that the leaders of the protest again the judicial reform would turn it into a war against Chareidim…It didn’t work for them with the protest in Bnei Brak. Now they’re switching to [a protest] against the draft law.”

“Don’t worry. Even if the judicial reform doesn’t pass and the draft law gets shelved, they’ll find another reason to protest.”

Skverer "Hochuls" Issue Fatwa Against Use Of Artificial Intelligence Tools Like ChatGPT

 

I have to laugh, I've been around enough Skverers to know that they think that they are the smartest and everyone else are a bunch of dummies. Practically all Gedoilim warned Frum Jews not to vote for the pro-crime, no bail Hochul, but not Skver, they are smarter than everyone else and endorsed Hochul. So now they banned the use of "AI artificial Intelligence, I find that ironic. But they really had no choice but to ban it because, here was an app that is for sure smarter than them! 

In what is believed to be a first-of-its-kind ban, more than a dozen rabbanim and dayanim from the Skver chasidus have signed a strongly worded letter assuring the use of AI chatbots.

The letter, first released on Thursday, mentions OpenAI, the company behind artificial intelligence marvel ChatGPT, but makes it clear that it is not speaking of only that developer’s products.

“The severity of the danger is not yet clear and obvious to everyone,” the letter states, noting that it poses, in the eyes of the rabbanim, a critical danger to frum yidden.

AI chatbots provide completely unfiltered access to apikorsus, lewd and perverse content, and all the issurim of “lo sasuru acharei levavchem,’ the kol koreh says.

The use of AI chatbots is thus in the same category as the “issur hachamur” of using unfiltered internet, regardless of how the chatbot is used.

“Therefore,” the letter says, “the use of AI is stricly prohibited in every way and form, even on a phone.”

Uh Oh! Israeli Professor Linked to Hunter Biden Goes Missing Under Mysterious Circumstances

 According to a report in “Jewish Business News” citing local media, Israeli Professor Gal Luft has gone missing from Cyprus under mysterious circumstances.

The right-wing Gateway Pundit reported that Dr. Luft, a retired IDF colonel and co-director of the Washington-based Institute for the Analysis of Global Security, was set to reveal explosive information about the Biden Family.

Luft was an adviser to CEFC China Energy, a business conglomerate with close ties to the Chinese Communist Party. According to reports, CEFC Energy paid Hunter Biden approximately $5 million in 2017 to secure energy deals in the US.

Luft’s lawyer had told Biden’s DOJ that his client would submit a letter to Congress containing information he previously gave the FBI during the Trump Administration regarding the Biden family. Moreover, Luft had learned about explosive information: someone was selling sealed US law enforcement information to Chinese individuals.

As reported in the Jewish Business News:

Luft has previously claimed that he was being politically persecuted and that the allegations against him are false. He alleges that he revealed incriminating evidence on Hunter Biden to the FBI and that the US is attempting to bury him to protect the Bidens. Luft has appealed to the Israeli government for assistance, stating that there is a conspiracy against him. Luft’s American attorney, Robert Henoch, has expressed concern for his client’s safety.

Luft’s claims relate to allegations that he attempted to inform the Department of Justice about business deals that Hunter and Joe Biden made with the Chinese government four years ago. Hunter Biden allegedly received $100,000 monthly from CEFC, a Chinese firm.

Luft’s lawyer, Mordechai Tzivin, who deals with unusual international affairs, said that Luft would never do anything against the law. “The news of his disappearance is puzzling, to say the least. It is possible that certain American people or institutions are afraid of the information in the hands of my client. They will try, in any legal way – to prevent him from testifying about everything he knows.”

The attorney claimed that Ye Jianming, founder and chairman of CEFC-USA, a nonprofit created by the China Energy Fund Committee, told Luft that Hunter Biden had an informant in the FBI.

According to a bombshell allegation by Luft, he was arrested on bogus weapon trafficking charges in January to try to silence him.

Shahana Hanif "Machsheifa" That Represents Boro-Park Voted AGAINST Resolution of "End Jew Hatred Day"

 

Frum Jews are being led like sheep to the slaughter by the Judenrat, headed by Ezra Friedlander who urge them to keep voting for the DemonRats. 

It wasn't too long ago that Ezra was peddling a Congressional Medal of Honor for Anwar Sadat who murdered over 2,000 Jewish soldiers leaving widows, orphans and parents behind to mourn them forever. 

Just last week this narcissistic naive "naar" was defending his "tuchislekking" the fat derrieres of AOC, Ilhan Omar and Tlaib, on the Larry Gordon Show, insisting that he was no different than R' Michael Ber Weissmendel who "met with Eichmann"

First of all R' Weismandel never met Eichmann ym"s, it was Kastner and Freudiger that met with Eichmann, and except for saving a tiny transport, the meetings were a disaster as over 400,000 Jews were brutally murdered, including my own two brothers and my grandparents. 

Friedlander's embracing these sick, woke anti-semitic yentes backfired as they voted the very next day with another 16 antisemitic DemonRats against a resolution that honored the friendship between the US and Israel. 401 Representatives voted in the affirmative. 

When will the Jews learn? When will the Jews finally make sure that Ezra stops making the Benjamins on the backs of his fellow brothers and sisters? Ezra... we don't need your intervention, you are no Weissmandel!

 

I can’t think of an easier bill to vote yes for. And yet… https://t.co/7RkDGcrB4l

 On Thursday, Jewish members of the New York City Council were outraged that six of their colleagues did not vote in favor of a resolution recognizing April 29 as “End Jew Hatred Day.”

Two members voted against it, while four others abstained. Outrageously, one councilmember claimed later that she regretted abstaining, and did so because she did not have a chance to review the resolution.

The resolution, which passed overwhelmingly, was introduced by Inna Vernikov, a Jewish Brooklyn Republican, in response to a 52% increase in antisemitic incidents across the city, as reported by the ADL’s annual audit.

Vernikov was quoted as saying it was “sickening” to listen to the remarks of those who opposed the resolution, noting that she referenced the atrocities of the Holocaust in her introduction of the measure.

Yated Ne’eman called on readers to ‘stay away’ from pro-overhaul rally

 

I believe that Yeshivisha/Litvaks made a huge mistake with their advice to their readers not to attend the rally. The likelihood of their readers to have showed up at the rally was zero anyway, so what was the point?  

This article just exposed the deep divide between the Dati-Leumis' and the Yeshivishe  communities. The Dati Leumi party which is the Otzma Yehudit party is getting stronger and stronger usurping votes from the Litvishe Degel Hatorah and the Aguda Parties, witness  the last election. As Otzma gets stronger they will begin to totally ignore them and only consider what is good for "dati leumi. The Yated was the newspaper that supported the sexual pervert, the late Chaim Walder till the very end. 

A popular Haredi newspaper called on its readers not to attend a mass rally on Thursday night in support of the government’s contentious bid to dramatically weaken the judiciary.

Yated Ne’eman, which is affiliated with the non-Hasidic Degel Hatorah faction in United Torah Judaism — a key ally of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu — ran a story about the pro-overhaul demonstration, noting its location and timing.

However, the accompanying article called on community members not to attend.

Ezra Friedlander's Girlfriends AOC, Omar and Tlaib Vote against Resolution Honoring US-Israel Ties That Passed With 401 For 19 Against

 

Ezra "the kapo" Friedlisker's shenanigans backfired when his girlfriends AOC, Ilahan Omar, and Tlaib "smacked him in the face" when they voted against the resolution honoring US-Israel ties. They were part of only 19 DemonRats that voted against, 401 voted for. Tuchislekking the 3 stooges who hate Jews apparently didn't do anything for Ezra's brothers and sisters. 

Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) and 18 House Democrats on Tuesday voted against a resolution that honored the U.S.-Israeli relationship on Israel’s 75th Independence Day and expressed support for expanding and strengthening the Abraham Accords — the 2020 agreement establishing diplomatic ties between Israel and the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain, as was reported by TheHill.com.

Rep. Ann Wagner (R-MO), the lead sponsor of the resolution, said in a statement following the vote that the “bipartisan passage of this resolution reaffirms our commitment to the people of Israel and promotes vital security assistance so they can defend themselves in the face of an increasingly aggressive Iran,” JewishInsider.com reported.

Reps. Kathy Manning (D-NC), Mike McCaul (R-TX) and Brad Schneider (D-IL) were original co-sponsors of the legislation.

The resolution — which had bipartisan sponsorship — cleared the chamber in a 401-19 vote, the Hill reported. Massie, who frequently votes against legislation pertaining to international matters, was the only Republican to oppose the measure.

US Empties Arms Stockpile in Israel To Aid Former Ukrainian Jew Killers

Israeli officials are concerned about the dwindling stockpile of US munitions stored in Israel which has been sent to aid Ukraine, Yisrael Hayom reported on Thursday.

Nazis during WW2 used Ukrainians to murder Jews and the Ukrainians did it with enthusiasm and in the most brutal ways.

 A New York Times article in January reported that a“little-known stockpile” of American ammunition in Israel is being used by the Pentagon to supply Ukraine with artillery shells for its battle against Russia. According to the report, the US promised it will replenish the stockpile but at this point, there has been no indication from the Biden administration when that will happen, and as is known, the arms stockpiles in the US are currently strained.

The US request to transfer arms from Israel to Ukrainian murderers was approved by then-interim prime minister Yair Lapid. Sources told Yisrael Hayom that arms have been shipped every week until recently and were specifically shipped on Shabbos to avoid attention from the media.

Israeli defense officials are concerned by the dwindled arms supply in the face of Israel’s increasingly delicate security situation. The US arms stockpile has been in Israel for decades and there is an understanding between Jerusalem and Washington that the arms can be used by Israel in the case of an emergency – that is, a major attack by its Arab neighbors.

“These are Israel’s reserve stockpiles for times of war,” a former cabinet minister said. “The transfer has serious implications in light of the threats to Israel in multiple theaters.”

The Israeli officials’ concern is well-founded. A US official confirmed to Yisrael Hayom that “it is still not clear when the reserves will be restocked,” adding that it depends on the manufacturing pace in the US.

Following Netanayhu’s return to power and the left-wing sector’s unprecedented incitement against his government, the relationship between Biden and Israel has deteriorated. Senior Israeli security officials say that Biden’s cold shoulder to Israel along with his lack of response to Iranian aggression and failure to improve ties with Saudi Arabia is directly affecting Israel’s strategic situation in the region.

Media estimates that 600,000 were at the Pro-government demonstration in Jerusalem

 

An enormous rally with hundreds of thousands of demonstrators called the 'Million March,' was held in front of the Knesset this evening (Thursday) in support of the government's planned judicial reforms.

Over 1,000 buses were bringing citizens from all over the country to participate in the demonstration.

Police said that crowds at the demonstration at first reached 200,000 people. Later, as more and more people arrived, and it was almost impossible to get through the crowds that poured in, filling all the streets around the Knesset, and media estimated close to 600,000 people.

Justice Minister Yariv Levin and Knesset Constitution Committee chairman MK Simcha Rothman, the architects of the judicial reform legislation, addressed the demonstrators, as did numerous other politicians. Speakers included Nobel Laureate Prof.Israel Aumann, the head of the student union of Israeli universities, Caroline Glick, popular publicist and media personality Noam Fathi, Professor Gadi Taub and others.

Demonstration organizer Berele Crombie stated that "the purpose of the demonstrations is to remind and demand from our elected officials in the government and the coalition that the people want judicial reform, that the people are behind them, that the people give them strength."

MK Avichay Buaron, another initiator of the rally, said: "An entire camp cannot live with the knowledge that they are worth less. If there is no reform - that means that our votes at the voting booth are not worth anything. We are the majority at the voting booths, but we can't really run the country. This reality must change. The nationalist camp is also allowed to have a share in managing the country's issues. We are sick of being second-class citizens."

"We are sick of every decision that the government makes and which is for the benefit of soldiers or settlers or residents of south Tel Aviv - the Supreme Court is the one which decides whether it is a reasonable decision or not, and on the way invalidates it or the law which benefits these populations. We will not stop the protests, and we will only increase them until the million-person protest in which we tell the President, to the court, and to the opposition: No more! After 75 years from the State of Israel's establishment have passed, the people of Israel will be set free and Israel will embark on a new path. It's time," he said.

17-year-old Emuna Cohen Crowned Champion Of Israel’s Int’l Bible Quiz

 

17-year-old Emuna Cohen, an 11th-grade student at the Kfar Eliyahu Educational Institute in Gedera, won the International Bible Competition for young people on Israel’s 75th Independence Day . For the first time in three years, a girl won the competition

The second place winner was Neta Laksz, an 11th-grade student at Tzuri Bnei Akiva Shirat Hayam.

The quiz is being organized for the 60th year in the capital, Jerusalem. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Education Minister Joáv Kisch and Knesset Speaker Amir Ohana were present at the event.

In addition to the Israelis, contestants from Australia, Argentina, the United States, Canada, Great Britain, South Africa, Mexico and Panama came to the final, a total of ten girls and six boys.

“Only family members and close friends can testify to how many long days and sleepless nights these young people have dedicated to get here,” Knesset Speaker Ohana said at the opening of the event.

“Thousands of young people from all over the world put aside all their other activities for this important competition to study and learn from the eternal book. The return of the Jewish people to their land is unthinkable without the Bible, which we study and read.”

Harav Avadia Yosef's View on Yom Hatzmaot

יום העצמאות – בתמורות הזמן

Loosly translated ..... original Hebrew below

 It is Independence Day.  And we have already talked several times about the correct view of the establishment of the State of Israel in the Land of Israel, according to the words of Rabbi Ovadia Yosef zt"l.

An unusual thought can be found in the words of Rabbi Yosef Chaim zt"l, the Ben Ish Chai,  in his sefer "Baniho" (on mesachtas  Rosh Hashanah page 8:) .

He wrote, words of prophecy, that before the redemption of Israel, many Jews will ascend to the Land of Israel, and there will be a government there, and that will be their advantage, only that they will not be completely redeemed, until the coming of our righteous Messiah. 

And these words were written by the Gaon Rabbi Yosef Chaim, in the days when no one believed that Israel would come to their land in a great kibbutz, without the coming of the Messiah (And in the sefer "Abir the Shepherds" part two, he brought us more wonders from his Torah, in which he talks about the Yom Kippur war, and more. See there).
