A Brooklyn math tutor charged with repeatedly violating a six-year-old student is expected to go to trial in the fall.

Moshe Friedman was hired by the young boy’s parents to conduct in-home tutorials in 2013. Instead, for over 10 months, Friedman allegedly repeatedly assaulted and sexually abused the child.

Friedman, 30, was arrested in January 2015 for first-degree sexual conduct against a child and other shocking charges.

After several routine court appearances, prosecutors informed Brooklyn Supreme Court Justice Raymond Guzman on Wednesday that they are ready for trial in the fall.

According to court documents, Friedman allegedly hit the child in the back of the head, causing his glasses to fall off and injuring his hand.

On another occasion, while the boy’s hand was in a cast, Friedman allegedly followed him into the bathroom and violated him, according to the criminal complaint.

Friedman allegedly sexually assaulted the boy, shoved a rag in his mouth and threatened him with a gun.

"You'd better not tell your parents or I'll kill you and your family," Friedman allegedly said to the boy.

If convicted on the top charge, Friedman faces up to 25 years in prison.

Friedman and his attorney Arthur Aidala both declined comment outside court.

Campaign Aims To Register A Million U.S. Muslims Voters to vote for Hillary

I hope the following article in Reuters will give Jews the resolve to vote for Trump, but I don't think so. The Satmar Yiddish weeklies are all in the tank for Hillary ...

So now we have Satmar and all Mosdos Ha'torah siding with the Arabs .....

very nice!

 U.S. Muslim leaders hope to register a million voters from within their community to help combat what they say is the anti-Muslim stance of Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump.

The United States has only about 3.3 million Muslims, but campaign organizers say Muslim voters could have an outsize impact in swing states that are key to the November general election, such as Virginia and Florida.

“We want the Muslim community to understand that if you give up your rights voluntarily, no one will come and give it back to you,” said Osama Abu Irshaid, a member of the board of the U.S. Council of Muslim Organizations, which is spearheading the drive.

Imams have been asked to encourage their congregations to register to vote. Organizers have sent canvassers to college campuses, bus stations and gas stations in Muslim neighborhoods.

The campaign began in December and is part of an effort among U.S. Muslims to combat an “unprecedented rise in Islamophobia,” said Nihad Awad, executive director of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR).

CAIR’s database showed that 300,000 Muslims had registered since November, he said.

Scathing Attack on HuffPost for ‘Anti-Semitic Incitement’ Aimed at Helping Obama ‘Sell Iran Deal’

 

BY R. BLUM

The Huffington Post engaged in a “jihad of lies” against critics of the Iran deal, with special emphasis on Jews and Israel, a new report claims.

“The Rhodes To HuffPost,” whose release on Sunday came three days after the one-year anniversary of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), details a series of egregious violations of journalistic ethics on the part of the major media online outlet. In particular, it asserts, theHuffPost engaged in a concerted campaign to help US President Barack Obama get elected, and subsequently to assist him to push through the JCPOA by purposely deceiving the public about its true nature.

To this end, according to the report – compiled by Jon Sutz of the New York-based websiteSavetheWest.com – the HuffPost,

 PUBLISHED EDITORIALS AND “NEWS” STORIES THAT CONTINUED ITS LONG-STANDING PATTERN OF INCITING HATE AGAINST ISRAEL AND JEWS, USING CLASSIC ANTI-SEMITIC LIBELS AND STEREOTYPES, WHILE WHITEWASHING AND EVEN LEGITIMIZING ISLAMIST TERRORISTS, WHO’VE SWORN TO WIPE ISRAEL OFF THE FACE OF THE EARTH. EXAMPLES INCLUDE:

1. FALSELY CLAIMING THAT NETANYAHU BLINDSIDED OBAMA IN HIS SPEECH TO CONGRESS: IN THE LEAD-UP TO MR. NETANYAHU’S SPEECH TO CONGRESS IN MARCH 2015, HUFFPOST PUBLISHED AN INCENDIARY SPLASH HEADLINE THAT PERPETUATED THE LIE THAT HE HAD INSULTED THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION, AND UPSET WHITE HOUSE PROTOCOL, BY ACCEPTING CONGRESS’S INVITATION TO SPEAK, BEFORE OBAMA HAD BEEN NOTIFIED. IT ALSO INSERTED A FALSE QUOTE FROM HIM INTO ITS HEADLINE: “NO DISRESPECT, BARRY.” HUFFPOST DID THIS DESPITE THE FACT THAT ONE MONTH EARLIER, THE NEW YORK TIMES ADMITTED THAT THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION HAD BEEN NOTIFIED IN ADVANCE, AND THAT ITS ORIGINAL STORY (SOURCED FROM THE WHITE HOUSE) WAS INCORRECT.

1. FALSELY CLAIMING THAT NETANYAHU SAID NOTHING OF VALUE TO CONGRESS – WHILE CONSISTENTLY QUOTING IRAN’S RULERS VERBATIM: AFTER NETANYAHU’S SPEECH, HUFFPOST USED A YIDDISH SLUR TO CLAIM, IN A “NEWS” STORY HEADLINE, THAT HE SAID NOTHING OF IMPORTANCE TO CONGRESS ABOUT THE IRAN DEAL. YET AT THE SAME TIME, AND FOR YEARS PRIOR, IT QUOTED IRAN’S RULERS ACCURATELY, WHITEWASHED THEIR OVERT THREATS AGAINST ISRAEL, AND ENGAGED IN DE FACTO PR FOR THE TERROR STATE.

1. SELECTIVELY PUBLISHING EDITORIALS THAT ADVANCED ANTI-SEMITIC LIBELS: IN EARLY 2015, HUFFPOST GAVE PROMINENT SPACE ON ITS FRONT PAGE TO A VARIETY OF ANTI-SEMITIC EDITORIALS, AGAINST BOTH MR. NETANYAHU AND ISRAEL, AND IN SUPPORT OF THE IRAN DEAL. YET WHEN ELIE WIESEL, THE REVERED HOLOCAUST SURVIVOR AND WORLD-RENOWNED HUMAN RIGHTS ACTIVIST AUTHORED AN OPEN LETTER TO OBAMA AND CONGRESS, URGING THEM TO OPPOSE THE IRAN DEAL, AND TOOK OUT FULL-PAGE ADS TO PROMOTE IT IN THE NEW YORK TIMES AND THE WASHINGTON POST, HUFFPOST COMPLETELY IGNORED HIM.

1. IGNORING IRAN’S FUNDING OF HAMAS’S PREPARATIONS TO ATTACK ISRAEL: IN AUGUST 2015, JUST BEFORE THE FINAL CLIMAX OF THE DEBATE OVER THE IRAN DEAL, HUFFPOST IGNORED SUBSTANTIVE REPORTS THAT IRAN WAS FUNDING HAMAS’S PREPARATIONS TO INSTIGATE A NEW WAR AGAINST ISRAEL… [W]HEN HAMAS-LED TERRORISTS BEGAN ENGAGING IN NEAR-DAILY ATTACKS ON ISRAELI JEWS IN THE COMING WEEKS, HUFFPOST ALL BUT IGNORED THE VICTIMS — YET WHITEWASHED AND EVEN LEGITIMIZED THE TERRORISTS’ NARRATIVE.

The report — whose title is a reference to the scandal surrounding Obama’s JCPOA adviser Ben Rhodes’ admission of deceit in relation to the deal — says that the HuffPost boasts 130 million readers per month, calling itself the “largest news site in the US.” In addition, according to one internet traffic analysis source, the outlet is now the most popular political website in the world.

The report quotes the HuffPost’s claim that it “has in place rigorous editorial policies and standards…to ensure that we maintain the highest level of journalistic integrity…Too many reporters have forgotten that the highest calling of journalists is to ferret out the truth, consequences be damned…There is an objective reality, and it is the media’s job to present it unequivocally.”

The stated purpose of the report is to provide the facts to Americans who are unfamiliar with the ins and outs of the Iran deal, and the way it was portrayed in the media. “Without this knowledge,” it says,”one cannot truly grasp the magnitude or implications of what HuffPost did, and failed to do.”

Hillary's Message vs Trump's Message

Crane Crashes On To Tappan Zee Bridge All Lanes Closed Indefinitely

DEVELOPING: At least two people were hurt Tuesday after a construction crane collapsed onto the Tappan Zee Bridge north of New York City, local media reported.

Paramedics rushed two people from the scene on stretchers, Fox 5 reported. Crews closed all lanes on the bridge and traffic reportedly backed up for miles.

Helicopter video showed the collapsed crane stretching across all six lanes of the bridge, which spans Rockland and Westchester counties.

Workers had been building a new bridge to replace the older span over the Hudson River. Emergency crews rushed to the scene.

The crane collapsed around noon Tuesday, the Rockland County executive's office reported.

In March, a 90-foot tugboat sank after it hit a construction barge near the bridge site, killing three crew members.

On whose side is Obama on? Black Matters' Murder!

When there is unrest in the Middle East, who does Obama back?  
He backs the Islamic faction.  
When there's unrest at home, who does Obama back?
 He backs the most radical leftist factions. 
 In Egypt, the secular military took out the Muslim Brotherhood; Obama backed the Muslim Brotherhood.  
In Iran, the Iranian people rose up in what was called a Green Revolution. Obama backed the mullahs and then made a nuclear deal with them, granting them $150 billion of unfrozen assets via the end of sanctions and the green light to developing nuclear weapons

In Iraq, the US military provided stability after a long war to secure a secular-leaning government.  Obama pulled up stakes. He pulls out, left Iraq vulnerable to Islamists within and vulnerable to Iran next door -- and hello, ISIS. 

 In Turkey, the military attempted an Egypt-like coup.   This prime minister, Erdogan, is trying to take Turkey into unfettered Sharia land.  He is trying to make it Islamic  nation,  and let's talk about Erdogan...

There are some people who think he may have orchestrated that coup in order to be able to get rid of every one of his military and police and diplomatic opponents, 'cause he's purged something like 15 or 20,000 people after this coup.
  It didn't ever have a chance and now people thinking maybe Erdogan actually sponsored this whole thing to make it look like he had tamped down a serious opposition effort.  But now he's got smooth sailing towards taking Turkey into primo Islamist supremacism and away from the secular identity that it has always had.  

Who did Obama back?  Erdogan.   

Here at home, Obama always sides with the most radical leftists.  Black Lives Matter over the cops.  Occupy Wall Street over the Tea Party.  Illegal immigrants over citizens.  Refugees over citizens.  Planned Parenthood's baby butchers over the rule of law.  Bureaucrats over doctors.  Teachers unions over students.  We're dealing here with a guy who is a radical leftist, divisive by choice.  It's how he advances his vision of transformation.

And yet he's sitting there at 56% approval in the polls.  

The  Media was able to take George Bush down to the low thirties with four to five years of daily pummeling on every aspect of his presidency. Leading with Iraq, followed by torture, followed by Abu Ghraib, followed by Afghanistan, followed by the War on Terror, followed by the economic collapse. Virtually everything that was going on wrong was pointed and laid right at the feet of George W. Bush. 

But  Obama is perceived to have no responsibility for anything.  He's perceived to have no cause effect on anything that's happening.  It's thought by a majority of Americans that all of the stuff going wrong is Bush and that poor old Obama has been doing everything he can! He's swimming upstream, swimming against the tide, doing everything he can to fix these horrible problems for social justice and whatever.

But there are these rascally Republicans in opposition and the conservative media and the Tea Party and the Trumpists and everybody trying to stop our first African-American president from his appointment with destiny, when in fact he is the architect of this decline.  

And yet nothing attaches to him! No accountability whatsoever.  The media hasn't hit him on anything like they did Bush, and it wasn't expected that they would. 

 I'm just illustrating how this is done. It took 'em five years to take Bush down to the thirties. 

With all of this... , it's stunning.  Every terror attack that you can remember here and abroad -- the plummeting US economy, 94 million Americans not working, LGBT bathrooms, gay marriage, you name it -- 56% approval. 

 Now, what does that tell you?  What does it tell you about the people of this country and what they know?

What does it tell you about the people of this country and what they think?  

What does it tell you about where we're headed as a country? 

I mean, if all of this can generate a 50% and more? If all of this can generate a 56% approval rating, I shudder to think what real progress would result, what kind of approval rating would result from real progress.

The Big "Tzaddik" Berland Back in Israel to face charges of sexual improprieties!

Dressed in Talis & Tefillin, Berland gets off plane

Berland's Holy Women wait in airport

Rabbi Eliezer Berland, who fled 3 years ago after being accused of sexual assault, arrested after arriving at Ben Gurion Airport.

Rabbi i Eliezer Berland, the fugitive spiritual leader of the Shuvu Banim Yeshiva in Jerusalem, associated with the Breslov hassidic community, landed in Israel this morning (Tuesday), where he was promptly arrested by police at Ben Gurion Airport.

This ends a three-year saga which started when Rabbi Berland fled the country after being accused of sexual assault.

Hundreds of supporters still loyal to the Rabbi waited to greet him at Ben-Gurion airport.

French leader calls for ban on Jews wearing kipa in public! Satmar Encourages Jews to remain in France!

Just this past week, all the Satmar weeklies were chastising the Zionist State of Israel, because they were reasonably encouraging French Jews to make Aliyah! 

All, and I mean ALL European countries are soaked with Jewish blood, yet the Satmars have learned nothing from past history, trusting the Christians and the Muslims to be kind to the Jews, and are busy re-writing history, writing lies that the Arabs lived peacefully with the Jews until the Zionists came .... 

One just opens the Rambam's Iggeres Teiman to see that Satmar History is a distortion of the truth!

Now these crazed anti-Zionists are telling French Jews to stay put in France.....

and are totally fabricating stories about what they call "Yaldei Tzarfat" the children of France!

They are telling the naive sheep that the Zionists are taking French children and are making them into chilonim....

What crazy stuff????

Hey Satmar? Are those children orphans???? They don't have parents?

Aren't the parents of these children sending them to those Chilonei institutions?

Is Satmar telling us that the parents are Chareidim and sending them to Israel without any supervision, and the Zionist are grabbing them at Ben Gurion Airport and shipping them to chilonie schools???

How sick are these Satmars.... and now they grabbed R' Markiel Kotler to help them fund raise for this fraudulent endeavor!

I say it's a fund raising gimmick!

If they are really sincere, open up schools like the ones R' Aron Kotler did, ala Chinuch Atzmaie and ask the parents if they would agree for their children to attend....
but no .....another propaganda gimmick against the Zionists!
Mesheegeh Umetoreh!

Far right politician Marine Le Pen has caused outrage across France by calling for the banning of the Jewish skullcap in public.

The leader of National Front won a fifth of the popular vote during the first round of May’s presidential election on a largely anti-Muslim immigration agenda.

Now in an interview she has called not just for a ban on the wearing of Islamic veils in public, but also the kippah – leading to France’s most senior Rabbi to describe her view as ‘deeply deplorable’.

Her inflammatory words come at a time of heightened tensions caused by a Paris satirical magazine’s decision to publish a series of cartoons mocking both Islam and Judaism.

One of the images in Charlie Hebdo shows a Prophet Mohammed character being pushed around in a wheelchair by a Rabbi.

Ms Le Pen told Le Monde that all religious headwear should be banned ‘in shops, on public transport and on the streets’.

‘It’s obvious that if the veil is banned, the kippah should be banned in public as well,’ she said. The French parliament passed a ban on full-face coverings, including the Islamic veil in 2010 and the law came into force last year. 

Miss Le Pen, whose infamous father Jean-Marie Le Pen is a convicted racist and anti-Semite, also called for a ban on public prayers.

And she said kosher and halal foods should be outlawed in schools, along with foreign governments being allowed to pay for mosques.

Hundreds attend funeral of Shlomo Rindenow, IDF soldier killed in an accident yesterday; family reflects on his courage, infectious joy.

Hundreds of people gathered at the Netzer Hazani synagogue Monday afternoon for the funeral of 20-year-old IDF Sergeant Shlomo Rindenow, a lone soldier from the US who died in a hand grenade explosion Sunday.

Rindenow was killed along with First Sergeant Hussam Tapesh, who was buried earlier Sunday in his hometown of Beit Jan in northern Israel.

The incident, which occurred as the soldiers were patrolling the northern border with Syria, is still under investigation.

Earlier Monday, Rindenow's family called on the Israeli public to attend his funeral, having vowed he would be buried in the country he served.

"For most of the course of his (army) service my brother was alone," his brother Jeff said. "He volunteered to the army because he wanted to be a warrior. We are requesting that at least for his final departure he won't be alone."

Many responded to the call, flocking from around the country to escort the fallen soldier to his final resting place at the nearby Netzer Hazani-Yesodot cemetery.

The Rabbi of Netzer Hazani eulogized first:

"If you could say a few words to us, I think it would be to quote the verse "You shall choose life". We Israelis had the advantage of being born here, but you had the merit of both being born here and making Aliyah. This reflected the love you had for Israel, which compelled you to leave the US to volunteer to defend the land of Israel."

Sister Yocheved: "You were wise like your namesake, King Shlomo, wise beyond your years. More mature than all of us. You loved us all so much, and I'm so sorry for what happened to you. When Shlomo joined the army, we weren't even as worried as you would think. He was so responsible that we just assumed he'd be safe whatever he did.

"You taught us how to live with a pure and open heart. We love you so so much. Thank you for being my brother."

Brother Baruch: "I wish I had the proper words to honor you. People always said how much you were like me. But I don't know what they're talking about, the brother I knew was so awesome that I could never hope to match him.

"Shlomo would get into his head that he wanted to do things and then he'd just do them. He decided to come to Israel, learn Hebrew within a few months, and get into the unit in the army he wanted. And he did it. I admired him so much, and I don't think I even told him that. I told other people, I bragged about my brother, but I'm not sure if I told him."

Sister Beyla: "You were the young one in the family, the baby. But you never wanted to accept that. You were so mature and wanted to do everything the older siblings were doing. We might have given you a hard time sometimes, but we loved you so so much, because you were our baby. And I miss you so so much, my baby."

Brother Jeff: "Today is a day of tragedy for the family, for the army, and for the Jewish nation everywhere. Shlomo joined the army to follow in the footsteps of four brothers and two sisters who did national service. Shlomo, you always smiled, you always were there to help whoever needed it. You could have done a shorter term of service as part of the diaspora volunteer program, but you decided to do the full three years. You will always be an example to all of us, to your brothers and sisters, and everyone who knew you."

Extradition of Eliezer Berland begins, as own son shuns him

The four year international odyssey of Rabbi Eliezer Berland is about to come to an end.

The fugitive rabbi and spiritual leader of the Shuvu Banim yeshiva in Jerusalem fled Israel four years ago, following allegations of sexual misconduct with female members of the religious movement he founded within the Breslov stream of Hasidism.

Breslov Rabbonim: Distance Yourself From The Man Called Rabbi Eliezer Berland

A number of prominent Mashpi’im in the Breslov Tzibur have released a kol korei instructing chassidim to distant themselves from Rabbi Eliezer Berland, who remains imprisoned in Johannesburg awaiting extradition to Israel, for sex crimes!

Rabbi Yaakov Meir Schechter, Rabbi Shmuel Mosher Kramer and Rabbi Nosson Liebermentch signed the kol korei, speaking out against Rabbi Berland in harsh terms.

They explain Rabbi Berland errs in the essence of his derech, as well as his basic understanding and teachings of Yiddishkheit and as such, poses a true threat. The also highlight they have no connection to him and his derech whatsoever, as should be the case with all true Torah-believing Jews.

Shuvu Banim officials respond, explaining the kol korei is not at all surprising, citing the rabbonim who signed have little-to-no influence in the chassidus today and as such, the kol korei is all but meaningless. 

They explain this small bunch has always been on the outside looking in and they attack rabbonim who bring people back into the fold, such as the tzaddik from Yavniel ZT”L and mashpiah Rav Meir Brenner Shlita, “all emanating from their hate for Sephardim and baalei teshuvah…"

Monsey Here We Come ....600 more units on route 59 .... no concern for potential horrific traffic conditions

A Ramapo developer has proposed a 600-unit housing complex spread over more than three-dozen buildings off Route 59 at the site of the old Rockland Drive-In Theatre.

Joseph Brachfeld of Wesley Hills said his Town Square Residences would be a mix of rentals, condominiums and brownstones that would be part of an integrated community including pedestrian walkways and green space. Pricing for the units has not been determined.

He called the area "the gateway to Monsey" and said his proposal would create much-needed housing and improve a site that's been unused for nearly 30 years, after the drive-in went dark in 1987.

Brachfeld's firm redeveloped the former Pathmark shopping center into the Town Square next to his proposed development, which has more than 30 stores including the Evergreen supermarket.

The 23-acre parcel he is eyeing for housing is currently zoned for commercial stores. Brachfeld wants Ramapo to create a new zoning classification — transit oriented development — for his project.

He said Town Square Residences is designed to capitalize on nearby shopping, a park-and-ride lot and a proposed bus rapid transit hub that would be completed when the new Tappan Zee Bridge fully opens in 2018.

A state Department of Transportation spokeswoman confirmed there is a proposed bus rapid transit stop near the Monsey Park and Ride lot, but said details had not been finalized.
