The Rav of Tehran And Delegation of Jews Are “Menachem Avel” The Soleimani Family

A delegation of Iranian Jews, including the Rav of Tehran, was among the millions of Iranians filling the streets of Tehran on Monday for the funeral of slain General Qassem Soleimani, who was killed by a US airstrike last week, Israeli news sites reported on Monday.
One of the members of the Jewish community in Tehran, in an exclusive conversation with B’Chadrei Chareidim, said: “Many Jews participated in the funeral. We went to comfort the general’s family. The Rav of Tehran, Rav Yehudah Grami, also went to comfort [the family]. An important delegation [of Jews] joined him.”
A Yisrael Hayom report said that a delegation of Jews along with leaders of other minority religions visited Soleimani’s family home on Sunday to comfort the family. 
Afterward, the Jews praised Soleimani in an interview on state media and expressed their sorrow about his assassination.
The local Jewish community already released a statement a few hours after Soleimani’s assassination on Friday, condemning the strike and stating that: “G-d will avenge the blood of Soleimani.”
“It’s very important for minorities, especially Jews [to comfort Soleimani’s family],” Rani Amrani of “Radio Ran” a Farsi-speaking Israeli radio station, said, according to the Yisrael Hayom report. “They are afraid of anti-Semitism and they don’t want to be harassed. During the protests on Yom Yerushalayim, the Jews often go out and protest as well because they don’t want to be harassed.”
“In their hearts, they love Israel. They’re in a situation in which they’re obligated to prove that they have no connection to Zionism. If they don’t do this, their blood will be on their heads.”

Brooklyn Man arrested in Israel on sexual assault charges, extradition filed


A US citizen who has been illegally staying in Israel for several years was arrested on Sunday in the South following a US government extradition request.
A petition was filed with the Jerusalem District Court on Monday, in which the International Department of the State Attorney's Office sought to declare him extraditable to the United States.

The man reportedly sexually assaulted two of his underage daughters at the family's home in Brooklyn, New York, between 1996 and 2004 when the complainants were young girls.
In October 2010, one of the daughters reported the abuse, and the New York Police Department opened an investigation.
That day, his wife drove him to JFK airport, and from there he flew to Israel. A few months later, his residency permit expired, and since then the man has been illegally staying in Israel.

Finally Someone Telling Off The "Hollywood Elites" .........“You’re in no position to lecture the public about anything,”

How Hollywood sees itself: 
Dedicated craftsmen, important artists, world thought leaders. 
How Ricky Gervais (and everyone else) sees them:
 Criminals, perverts and dopes — a gang of pretentious jerkwads who dropped out of high school when people noticed they were pretty, then mistakenly started to think their insights on world affairs matter. 
Hired to host the Golden Globes for the fifth and last time, Gervais saw it as his duty to tell Hollywood to eff off, and that’s exactly what he did. All those comics who think they’re “bold,” they “bite the hand that feeds them,” they “speak truth to power” — this is how it’s done.

New York City 1900-1919 in Color


Why Satmar Will Never Join the Rest of the Frum Jewish World In the Daf Ha'Yoimie .... UPDATED!!

אנו משכימים לדברי תורה
 


והם משכימים לדברים בטלים


Finally, the Jewish people found a way to have "achdus" and be once again ... ONE!
 The Daf Yoimie!!

The Daf Hayoimie, manages to bring together the entire Jewish people ....no politics ..... no nothing .... just Torah ....
Just by learning the same page of ancient text we are coming together as one ...

Rav Meir Shapiro z"l, at the first Knessiah Gedolah of Agudas Yisrael nearly a century ago, explained the idea of the Daf Yomi the concept that all of the Jewish World would be learning the same page, 
"This would connect world Jewry with the strongest glue...the holy Torah!

You would think????

There is one solidarity group, however,  that will officially not be part of this "achdus" .... and that is .... you must have guessed it ...
SATMAR!
They were not represented in any of the Siyum HaShas celebrations!

Now to be honest ... when Rav Meir Shapiro ..first introduced the idea he did have some opposition ..... 
because there were some that felt ...that learning a daf a day would cause people to never learn the daf... be'iyun ...in depth .....

The opposition totally evaporated and in fact all Gedolei Yisrael embraced this idea and it was and is implemented throughout the entire Torah world...
Every Bais Medrish ... be it in Lakewood, Monsey, Williamsburg, Israel, Europe etc ... has a chevrah learning the daf ..; 
there are now groups that have serious Talmedei Chachamim learning the Daf Yoimie in depth.

So you naively ask.... who would possibly be against learning Torah?
Especially learning Torah in an organized system that unites us instead of dividing us??

SATMAR!!!!

Why?????

Ha ha LOL

Because ...hold on to your seats .....
it was started at the Agudah Convention!!! 

And Satmar's mesorah is not to join in the Agudah in any Torah way ....
I say "Torah way" because Satmar does join the Aguda when it comes to grabbing money from the Government ..
They are at all the meetings taking place at the Aguda offices where it is  explained how to get and apply for federal and state grants!

Now... I know that some of my readers are going to tell me that there are large groups of their Satmar cult that does learn the daf albeit not with the system ... they are two pages behind or two pages ahead...
That my friends is the entire point ....
they officially will not be part of the "achdus" which means being on the same page the same day ......

They do not want to be part of the Daf Yoimie Chevreh ....

They keep parroting the bizarre mantra that this is not "our mesorah"...
Helllllllllllow .... 
you didn't have a mesorah to wear a shreimel either! 
UPDATED!
For those readers who emailed me that Chabad is against the daf ...I decided to display a letter  of the 6th Lubavitcher Rebbe congratulating the Lomdei Hadaf
Also a letter of the previous Lubavitcher Rebbe congratulating the Lomdei Hadaf!

An Inside Glimpse of the BLACK HEBREW ISRAELITES

Princesso Jones Who wrote this story 
The couple who shot up a kosher market in Jersey City last month and the suspect in the Hanukkah stabbings in upstate Monsey had connections to the Black Hebrew Israelites, a secretive sect with some members preaching hate against Jews. 
David Anderson, one of the shooters killed in the Dec. 10 firefight which resulted in six dead, published rabid anti-Semitic screeds on social media and was inspired by the group. Grafton Thomas, the accused stabber who injured five Hanukkah celebrants inside a rabbi’s home last week, had attended the sect’s house of worship in East Harlem.
Months before the two attacks, in early February, Post reporter Princess Jones attended a service at the storefront temple. 
This is her story.

Crazy Democrats Upset that Trump Took Out Mass Murderer


The calendar turns and a decade begins, but there is nothing new under the sun in Washington. Even the killing of an Iranian mass murderer is cause for more partisan strife.
In a sane country, which America used to be, there would be shared sober satisfaction over the elimination of Gen. Qassem Soleimani. Yet Democrats apparently outsourced their reactions to robots, whose script called for conceding that the departed was a very bad man, but prohibited approval of President Trump’s decision to take him out.
Instead, the quibblers’ chorus raised questions of timing and expressed fear of escalation and retaliation. In the context of Iran’s military aggression and Soleimani’s bloody hands, there is another word for that fear: appeasement.
Or, as defense specialist Michael Doran wrote in The New York Times, the fear of war “ignores the fact that Mr. Soleimani has been waging war on America and its allies for years.”

Police: No Evidence Found To Link Monsey Stabber To November Attack


The man charged in the machete attack on a Hanukkah celebration north of New York City had been questioned by local authorities in connection with an earlier stabbing of an Orthodox Jewish man in the same town, police said Thursday.

Grafton Thomas faces state and federal charges in Saturday’s Hanukkah attack, which wounded five people at a rabbi’s home in Monsey, New York.
That attack came as police in the same town were investigating a Nov. 20 stabbing in which a man was critically injured while walking to a synagogue.
Ramapo Police Chief Brad Weidel said police questioned Thomas based on video evidence that suggested a Honda Pilot may have been involved in the November stabbing. Thomas’ mother drives a Honda Pilot, and authorities said they seized and searched that vehicle following Thomas’ arrest in Saturday’s attack.
Weidel said investigators have not tied Thomas to the earlier stabbing.
“We have to operate with evidence,” Weidel told reporters at a news conference. “We had no evidence, and we had no probable cause to do anything other than follow a lead.”

A Lesson About Jews From a Black Pastor



Ishay Ribo Israeli Singer Had 190 Million Views and has 180,000 Subscribers on UTUBE

Every Chanukah, Kikar Hashabat music critic Nesanel Leifer takes a close look at YouTube to compile a lift of the most successful frum singers in the world. A high number of views on YouTube translates into success in general since YouTube not only provides excellent exposure for singers but is a source of income in itself through advertising revenue.
Israeli singer Ishay Ribo won first place by a high margin for the second year in a row, with a much higher number of views than those immediately after him on the list. 

This past year, Ribo broke every possible record, in the amount and size of his performances, the amount of YouTube views on his songs and his loyal fan base. He also released his fourth album “אלול תשע”ט” with his hit song: “Halev Sheli.”
Ribo’s official YouTube channel has 190 million views and 180,000 subscribers. This is the second year in the row that Ribo doubled the number of views on his channel within a year. Furthermore, almost all of Ribo’s videos simply display the words of his songs but that doesn’t stop his fans from replaying them again and again at a rate far higher than any other frum singer.

Monsey stabbing suspect Grafton Thomas was a ‘Shabbos goy’ growing up?


The man accused of using a machete to hack five Orthodox Jews at a Hanukkah party had Jewish friends while growing up — and even did Sabbath chores for them, his mom told The Post on Wednesday.
Grafton Thomas, 37, “was born in a Jewish neighborhood in Crown Heights,” Kim Thomas said in her first public statements since her son’s arrest in the Saturday night bloodbath in Monsey.
Kim, 55, said her son would help one Jewish family observe the Sabbath by performing tasks prohibited by their religious beliefs.
“Grafton grew up going there on a Friday afternoon to turn off the lights for them,” she said.
That practice is commonly known as serving as a “Shabbos goy” — a non-Jew who performs Sabbath tasks.
Before his arrest, Kim said, Grafton was always welcomed warmly whenever he returned to Brooklyn from their home in upstate Greenwood Lake.
“If he goes down there, anyone that sees him on the block, in the neighborhood, hugs him, welcomes him,” she said.
Several longtime Jewish residents of the block where Grafton formerly lived told The Post they didn’t remember him as a neighbor.

"Bail Reform" Will Allow A Criminal to Access Your Address!


Bail Reform in New York is more than just releasing anyone charged with certain crimes, regardless of their prior criminal history and even if the judge thinks the defendant is a threat to the public.

Under the new law, if you report a crime, the criminal defendant is entitled to find out your name, address and phone number.

So let's say you see a man beating someone up and call 911.
The person charged will receive your name, address and phone number.

The law went into effect today!

The "Heimishe Yidden"  that voted for  Governor Cuomo, should know that he signed this into law ...

Pope Francis is "Shomer Negiah"

Satmar Ahroinie Civil War in Bnei Brak Continues .... with physical Fist fights ....on Chanukah ... Zionist Police Had to Break It Up !

R' Katz and R,Meisels in Better Times


So here is the story as I know it ....
For many years the Rav of the Ahroinie Shul in Bnei Brak was Rabbi Eliyahu Katz ..... He also served as the "Head"of the Yeshivah...
Notice I wrote "Head"
When he died it was natural to appoint his son R' Avraham Shlomo Katz as the Rav....

Problem......
R' Aron Teitelbaum, Satmar Rebbe of Monroe threw a wrench into the mix and appointed his nephew R' Chaim Tzvi Meisels as Rosh Yeshivah of the Satmar Yeshivah of Bnei Brak .... in effect taking away one of jobs of R' Katz...

The problem.....
In Satmar circles there is no such thing as "Rosh Yeshivah"
"Rosh Yeshivah" is a term used primarily in the Litvishe circles, where practically everyone that wears a long frock with two buttons in the back is a Rosh Yeshivah....
You can find even 10 Roshei Yeshivah in any given Litvishe Yeshivah ... in fact in some Litvishe Yeshivois even a third grade Rebbe is called a Rosh Yeshiva.....

Finally the devoted talmidim of Rav Meisels had enough with this phony Litvishe "Rosh Yeshivah" business and took out a page from the Satmar "alter heim" pagebook and started to beat the crap out of the R' Katz followers and even physically threw out R' Katz from the Satmar Bais Medrish on one occasion ....(there are videos of this)...

The Satmar Rebbe from Monroe tried stopping the family feud, trying his best to avoid a civil war in his own camp .... and he actually managed to quiet things down for awhile....

Well last night on the holy night of "Zos Chanukah" while the fires of the menorah were flickering towards the heavens, down here on earth, the Meisel Camp in the spirit of Chanukah took up his fight like the Chashmonoim  and a fist fight erupted and of course they called the Zionists to break it up!...
The Katz Camp called this a"pogrom" ...see the poster below...


Meanwhile in the Yeshivah this morning, R' Meisels according to the Kikar Shabbos Blog, begged his "Maccabees" not to use physical force to fight on his behalf ...
