Home Sweet Hell

Whether you live in a Beacon Hill condominium or a single-family out in the suburbs, you’ll probably at some point find reason to get annoyed by your neighbors. There’s nothing unique about that. But the chance of getting mired in an all-out battle is so high in a condo building with only a few units that some real estate attorneys counsel clients to avoid buying into them altogether. “My advice is don’t buy one unless you don’t have other options,” says Richard Brooks, a partner in the Braintree law firm Marcus, Errico, Emmer and Brooks, which specializes in representing condo associations. “When they don’t work they can be a real nightmare. It’s almost like being in a bad marriage – you’re stuck."

How to cope when life falls short of our expectations.

Rabbi Sherre Hirsch
"I never imagined I would be single. I never thought I would get divorced. I never imagined that I wouldn't be able to have a baby or that I would lose my job. I never dreamt that I would lose all my savings and never realize the American Dream."

What happens when our dreams die? What happens when our husband leaves, our child fails, the economy collapses, our parents die?"
Can we mourn dreams like we mourn the death of a loved one? Can we expect Kübler-Ross' five stages of grief—denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and finally acceptance—before we begin to dream again? Or will we stop dreaming forever? Will we become hardened and say that life is unfair, death is inevitable, and dreaming is futile?

Why is Mike Savage, who has 8 Million Listeners Being Blackballed?

"Why is it that Dr. Savage seems to be so persona non grata in the controlled conservative media?

Could it be that most of those listed above are nothing but political hacks…propaganda arms of the Republican Party…and that there are those in authority who do not appreciate how Savage so willingly undresses both sides of the political charade?"

Is Belief in Revelation Possible in the Postmodern Age?

Today we inhabit a world in which we are assaulted by mass media and connected by the Internet. In effect, virtual reality imitates reality and even supplants it at times. Whereas in the past, philosophical investigations focused on the correspondence between the world of our senses and the world as it is, today we are left wondering whether there is anything beyond our subjective sense perceptions at all.
Is there any substance behind the plethora of images that invade our consciousness and imprint themselves upon our minds? 
The unique challenge that postmodernity poses to traditional faith does not concern particular articles of faith as such – the existence of G-d or the divine origin of the Torah, for example. 
Postmodernism does not so much undermine what we believe as how we believe.

Why the Left Hates Sarah Palin

Today I read the most thorough analysis of the left and the basis for their hatred of all things Palin. I am a huge fan of Robin of Berkley on American Thinker. Read what she has to say, it is really quite chilling and we need to have Sarah's back and keep her in our prayers.

Read Ed Koch on Palin:
Palin Holds High Ground Over Harsh and Unfair Critics

"While I disagree with her and I am prepared to oppose her politically, in the spirit of longed-for civility I say, Ms. Palin you are in a certain sense an example of the American dream: You have the courage to stand up and present your vision of America to its people. Your strength and lack of fear make America stronger and are examples to be emulated by girls and boys, men and women who are themselves afraid to speak up. You provide the example that they need for self-assurance. " Read More:

In George Orwell’s novel “1984,” on a daily basis everything stops for the Two Minutes of Hate, during which those in political control flash distorted images of their political enemies on a television screen so the populace can rage against them. Obviously, this is a manipulative, dishonest propaganda tool — four words that also describe  Jon Stewart, who yesterday served up his own dishonest Eight Minutes of Hate against Sarah Palin. Sure, he does it with a smirk, but the outcome is exactly the same. Feed the rage machine, feed the rage machine, feed the rage machine…

Civility Is Over, Democrat Calls Republicans, NAZIS!!!

A Democratic congressman invoked the Holocaust and the Nazis' "big lie" strategy last night during a speech to a near-empty House chamber about Republican efforts to repeal the health care law.

Rep. Steve Cohen, D-Tenn., also used the same phrase -- blood libel -- that got former Alaska governor Sarah Palin into trouble with some Jewish groups.


He thinks because he is Jewish he has the license to call others "Nazis."
It turns out 26 states are filing suit against the government, claiming that the Health Care Law as is, is unconstitutional! Are all these States, Nazis?

Rabbi Wants to Lower Marriage Age to 15!

Rabbi Idan
"Girls who do not want to study or work are a burden to the household," Rabbi Idan noted, "In my opinion, these young people will contribute more to the State because they won't go to nightclubs or waste their time looking for nonsense someplace else."

Currently the age of marriage allowed by law is 17, and according to the initiators of the bill, lowering it by even one year would pose a significant difference.

"There are many Hasidic communities that are interested in lowering the marriageable age, namely Vizhnitz and Breslov," explained Rabbi Idan.

"Some Hasidic communities are already violating the law by marrying at the age of 15-16. Parents of large families who cannot financially support all their children would be able to marry off their daughter earlier so that she can move into her husband's house," he added.

A Gift of G-D, 10 Year Old With the Most Beautiful Voice!

Weingarten's Defenders Debate the Facts! Copied & Pasted from the comments on Failedmessia.com

The following is from a Weingarten supporter who sounds like a lawyer:

Anyone who has carefully analyzed this case would realize that this Weingarten character is a devilish, arrogant, conniving, diabolical, scheming, sadomasochistic, psychopathic monster. He perpetrated his abuse in full view of the public over the course of many years. He contrived elaborate schemes as cover stories as to why he is doing what he is doing, and why his daughter would "lie" about him. Many years ago he already pre-recorded alibi tapes and set up elaborate dramatic incidents that should later serve as alibis for him. This case is suitable for a plot twisting Hollywood movie, a horror movie at that.

At the trial, where he arrogantly acted as his own lawyer, he claimed as a defense that the victim's motivation was to abandon her religion and that she was getting back at him for giving her a hard time about it. He further claimed that as a teenager she had sex with: a neighbor in Antwerp, her older brother and her mother!

If the Rabbis were smart they would let this case die from the headlines rather than to stir it up now. It will not be pretty for anyone if this hits the fan.
Although I have come to a conclusion about this monster’s guilt, there are still intriguing facts about this case which continue to perplex me. At the core of this case is a matrimonial controversy. So as they say, there is his version, her version and the truth.

1) Why did the family court in Rockland find him to be the ideal parent and award him sole custody of the kids during his divorce?

2) What is with those tapes of his ex-wife speaking in slobbering Yiddish with her sister regarding men she would like to sleep with, and with her daughter (the victim) about shaving her privates?

3) Why did the Feds conduct such an extensive 5 year investigation with extensive resources for crimes which were committed on other continents (mostly Europe), using an obscure law?

4) How was it possible for Weingarten to prevail at the Din Torah in Belgium which was conducted by pretty reasonable people there, even though the story was ongoing at the time?

5) Why do the rest of his children, to this day, swear their loyalties only to their father and still refuse to have anything to do with their mother or sister?

6) Why did he receive such a harsh sentence for a crime that by all accounts did not involve actual intercourse? Technically he got 30 years for transiting JFK Airport with his daughter.

Some additional trivia I find intriguing:

- Weingarten's older brother Leo left the fold decades ago, before it was the "in" thing to do. He has had a checkered past since then being implicated in financial misdeeds in Florida. He is one of the driving forces against his brother.

- The ex-wife who played the role of innocent victim all long ended up remarrying a Rosh yeshiva in Monsey who was one of her supporters. He sent her packing soon after the marriage and has now changed his mind about her.

- The victim has taken residence, together with her African-American boyfriend, in Florida, in close proximity to her uncle Leo.

- Not that it means much, but Weingarten happens to be a brilliant torah scholar by all accounts.

I have come to the conclusion that the entire cast of characters in this saga (Israel, his ex-wife, older brother Leo, Oldest son Yoni, Daughter (victim), supporting rabbis, detracting rabbis, etc..) are more complex than they seem and that there are various motives at play.

Though I find many aspects of this case intriguing and mysterious, there is no question in my mind that Weingarten is a hideous monster who got what's coming to him. - Just for the way he conducted the trial alone he deserves to rot in jail for ever.

Yaakov Margi, Shas Religious Services Minister calls the Hebrew Yated Neeman Newspaper "five grams of filth"

Hebrew Edition of the Yated Neeman

The Ashkenazi ultra-Orthodox journal Yated Neeman launched a direct attack on Rabbi Ovadia Yosef, an adjudicator of religious law and spiritual leader of the political party Shas, over his decision to confirm that conversions to Judaism performed by military rabbis are legal from a religious standpoint.

The Yated Neeman article quotes anonymous senior judges and rabbis that attack Rav Yosef's decision, saying that IDF conversions are the very opposite of what is required according to religious law. Yated Neeman is considered to be the personal mouthpiece of the Lithuanian Haredi Rabbi Yosef Shalom Eliashiv.

R' Yosef Shiltah  VS

R' Eliyashev Shiltah

So, now we cannot have any normal Halachic disagreements anymore ...if the Yated doesn't agree with Harav Hagoen Ovadia Yosef, then they attack in the newspapers..... is this our Torah???

I don’t know if its 2,000 years of Jewish guilt or something in our DNA but the Jewish people have a history of being our own worst enemies.
This discusting  Group "Jewish Funds for Justice" is funded by the self - hating Jew and the biggest hater of the State of Israel George Soros


Soros in a conversation about the Holocaust, where millions of his brothers and sisters were being tortured and murdered, actually made the following  bizzare and sick comment:


"It was actually, probably the happiest year of my life -  that year of German occupation.  For me it was a very positive experience.  It’s a strange thing, because you see incredible suffering all around you, and in fact, you are in considerable danger yourself.  But you’re fourteen years old and you don’t believe that it can actually touch you. You have a belief in yourself, you have a belief in your father. It’s a very happy making exhilarating experience."
