Arab Media Slam Palestinian Hypocrisy For PA Official’s Care In Israel

As Israelis debate over the treatment of senior Palestinian official Saeb Erekat in Hadassah Ein Kerem Medical Center, with some praising the move and others slamming it as immoral, some citizens of other countries are chiming in from the other perspective, slamming the Palestinians for their corruption and hypocrisy, namely those in Gulf states.

While the Palestinian media has remained mum about the story, media outlets in the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain and Saudia Arabia aren’t practicing the same restraint. For them, it’s time for payback to the Palestinian Authority, who has been heaping criticism on the Gulf states for the recent normalization deals with Israel. Erekat himself slammed the peace deals between the UAE and Bahrain with Israel, saying: “I never expected this poisonous dagger to come from an Arab country.”

The Gulf states lost no time in slamming the Palestinian Authority for its hypocrisy and double standard behavior.

“The corruption in the Palestinian Authority that led to damage to the health system is what forced the Palestinians to hospitalize Erekat in an Israeli hospital,” wrote Amjad Taha, an Arab international affairs expert and confidant of UAE, WIN News reported. “It seems that Erekat does not trust the Palestinian doctors, who are his people, nor the hospitals in the PA.”

“Has Saeb Erekat’s health become more important than the Palestinian issue?” an Emirati activist asked. “Thanks to Allah that seeking treatment in Israeli hospitals is not considered a betrayal of the Palestinian issue.”

Erekat’s treatment in Israel is especially embarrassing for the PA in light of the fact that it cut security and diplomatic ties with Israel several months ago, which means that PA residents are unable to seek medical treatment in Israel, even for advanced medical care that is unavailable in the PA.  But somehow, as always, the leadership in the PA and Gaza hold quite different standards for themselves than for the civilians they rule over.

Fatah, led by PA President Mahmoud Abbas, has tried to save face through various false statements, including that Erekat is only being treated at Hadassah due to its close location to his home in Yericho and the fact that treatment abroad is not currently available due to the pandemic, Ynet reported.

“The transfer of Saeb Erekat to Hadassah Medical Center [in Jerusalem] has nothing to do with him contracting coronavirus, but rather to complications related to a lung transplant he underwent three years ago,” a Fatah spokesperson tweeted.

“The hospital was chosen since it is the closest one, with the right equipment and team needed for the treatment. Erekat was transferred to Hadassah Medical Center because a treatment abroad is not possible during the pandemic.”

Flatbush Jews Have Trump Parade ....Driving From Flatbush to Manhattan in Show of Support

 Hat tip: to The Derby

A Pro-Trump rally by frum Jews in New York is took place on Sunday, October 25, beginning with car parades from four New York communities and culminating in a rally in Marine Park in Flatbush.

It is expected to be the largest Jewish car parade in history.

The rally is in support of US President Donald Trump, the United States of America and is pro-police, specifically the NYPD, as well.

About 1,000 cars boasting Trump flags from Monsey, Flatbush, Boro Park and Manhattan, are expected to participate. The car parades will travel toward Marine Park on the outskirts of Flatbush, gathering there about 5 p.m., where the rally will take place and speeches will be delivered.

The organizers have requested that participants bring masks to wear at the rally and make sure to practice social distancing after exiting their cars.

When The Rambam Went Up to The "Har Habayis"

 

What? The Rambam went up to the "Har Habayis?" Why? Don't the Gedoilim pasken that one cannot go on the "Har Habayis" because we are all tumeh?

Not so fast guys.... the Me'eerie also says that one can go up on the Har Habayis, and so did Rabbi Yafet the Rabbi of Akko who accompanied the Rambam. Those are three  Rishonim that rule halachically that one can go up to the Har Habyis today ... ...

So DIN, why talk about this today? Don't we have elections a week away? Shouldn't we focus on the laughing camel, Kamala Harris?

Good question... I just love it when my readers ask great insightful questions...

This past Shabbos was the 6th Of Cheshven ... and on the 6th of Cheshven, the secular year 1165 ( on a wednesday then), led by the then Dayan of Akko, Rebe Yafat, the Rambam, his father and his brother put their lives in danger and went up to the Har Habayis.

The Rambam established the 6th day of Cheshven as a Yom Tov for generations, with prayer, food and drink. 

Where did you get this info? No one seems to know about it ...?

You see.... you don't know about it because you are just a bunch of naive sheep and your rabbis want to keep you in the dark because it doesn't fit their agenda  ....

The Rambam actually wrote this in a letter and that's how I know...

שנת ששה ועשרים ליצירה, יצאנו מעכו לעלות לירושלים , תחת סכנה, ונכנסתי לבית הגדול והקדוש, והתפללתי בו, ביום חמישי, 

ששה ימים לירח מרחשון,

הימים האלו, נדרתי שיהיו לי כמו יום טוב, ותפלה ושמחה בהשם, ואכילה ושתיה.

 אלקים יעזרני על הכל ויקים לי נדרי להשם אשלם אמן

וכשם שזכיתי להתפלל בה בחורבנה, כך אראה אני וכל ישראל 

בנחמתה מהרה אמן

"In the 26th year of Creation, We left Akko to go up to Yerushalyim under dangerous conditions, and we entered the Great Holy Building; we prayed there on Wednesday the 6th day of the month of Cheshven.I vowed that  I will celebrate this date as a holiday, with prayer, food, drink and happiness to Hashem,G-d should help me with everything to assist me in fulfilling my vows, Amein!And just as I merited to pray in its ruins, I and all of the Jewish people should merit to see in its rebuilding, soon, Amein!"

In an additional letter to Rebbe Yafat, the Rambam recalls  this incident with affection and writes:

שאני והוא ואבא מורי זצ"ל ואתה

ארבעתנו הלכנו בבית השם ברגש

" As I and him (referring to his brother Dovid) and my Father my teacher, may this Tzaddik be  remembered for  blessing, and you (rabbi Yefet), the four of us traveled to the House of G-d with reverence"

And in his famous Igeeret Timan, the Rambam repeats this visit for a third time:

יצאנו מן המערב,לחזות בנועם השם, ולבקר מקום קדשו 

" we left from the West, to glance at the Sweetness of Hashem and visited His Holy Abode."

The Rambam was so excited and in awe of his visit, that he established a Holiday on the anniversary of his visit to the Har Habayis and couldn't stop writing about it. To think that their are Chareidie Rabbanim that prohibit their followers to visit the Kotel today is nauseating....

  Now.... I am not going to go into the halachic aspects about going up and I know some of you "Talmeidei Chachamim"  are going to scream ..."Oh  the Rambam knew exactly where to go but we don't"

Well ...  this  reason no longer applies today at all ..

  today in the secular year of 2020, because of recent archeological digs  and advanced science, we now know exactly where we can go and not go . ... and I can bring you historic documents that document the fact that Jews went up to the Har Habayis all the time with the approval of the then Gedoilim... way before we knew where exactly to go ...

But I just wanted you guys to see so that you can do your own research and come up with your very own conclusions...

But those who follow your Rabbanim ... Kol HaKoved... just don't tell us what to do ..we have Gedoilim that pasken that one can go up ...

also I'll let you into a little secret... most "Gedoilim" paskened that way because they were afraid of what the Arabs would do...

 Today B'H, frum Jews go up every single day without incident and its important to support them (even if you personally are against this) because by going up they are showing the world that the Har Habayis belongs to the Jews and that we refuse to hand over sovereignty to the Arabs.

Canadian Jews Demand Immediate Deportation of Nazi War Criminal Helmut Oberlander

A Canadian Jewish group on Friday called on Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to proceed with the deportation of Helmut Oberlander — a Nazi war criminal who served with a death squad unit responsible for the murder of more than 90,000 people in Russia and Ukraine.

“Canada cannot continue to allow a mockery to be made of its processes,” Michael Mostyn — CEO of B’nai Brith Canada — declared in a statement.

“Oberlander has had his day in court, and he lost,” Mostyn noted. “To not remove him now would be a punch in the gut to every Holocaust survivor in this country — and would render meaningless the prime minister’s promises of justice.”

The Canadian government has been attempting to deport Oberlander, who was also an infantryman in the German army, because of his Nazi past for the last 25 years.

Oberlander, who is now 95, had his Canadian citizenship stripped on four separate occasions by lower courts, but those decisions were reversed in three appeals.

Finally, in last December, Canada’s Supreme Court rejected an appeal to restore his citizenship, which Oberlander obtained in 1960.

B’nai Brith argued that “by failing to deport a Nazi whose SS death squad unit, Einsatzkommando 10a, murdered more than 90,000 innocent men, women and children, Trudeau unfortunately raises questions about what exactly has been learned, and how much history has been forgotten.”

Said the group: “No more delays. No more appeals. Canadians demand justice and further delays make a mockery of that justice.”

Pollster: If Trump Wins, ‘End of Public Polling’ in Politics

 

GOP pollster Frank Luntz said if President Donald Trump wins Nov. 3 it might be the ”end of public polling” in politics.

In remarks on The Interview podcast, Luntz gave the wake-up call when asked about an election outcome that defies what appears to be poor polling for Trump.

”If polling gets it wrong again, then the industry, at least for politics, is done,” Luntz said, Mediaite reported.

Amy Coney Barrett Will Be Confirmed Because Kavanaugh Battle Taught GOP To Stop Getting Played By Democrat Dirty Tricks

Amy Coney Barrett has not yet been confirmed as an associate justice of the Supreme Court by the U.S. Senate, but there is no question that her confirmation battle has gone much better than the one endured by Brett Kavanaugh and his supporters. The undervalued reason why is that Republicans and their voters are not wasting any time on dirty tricks from their opponents in the Senate and in the media.

This confirmation was supposed to be apocalyptic. That’s what I predicted. One of the closing paragraphs of “Justice On Trial: The Kavanaugh Confirmation and the Future of the Supreme Court,” the book I wrote with Carrie Severino:

As ugly as Kavanaugh’s confirmation battle became, he is unlikely to shift the Court dramatically. Except on abortion and homosexuality, Justice Kennedy usually voted with the conservatives. If Justice Ginsburg were to retire while Trump was in the White House, the resulting appointment would probably be like the Thomas-for-Marshall trade. Compared with what might follow, the Kavanaugh confirmation might look like the good old days of civility.

Clearly, we were wrong. There are many reasons for that, and it’s worth looking at them.

Lives of 130,000 Americans will be saved by March if 95% of people wear masks - but COVID-19 death toll will top 500,000 if they don't, study predicts

 If 95 percent of Americans wore masks consistently, nearly 130,00 lives could be saved between now and March 2021, a new study suggests. 

Without measures like masks and social distancing, however, the US coronavirus death toll is likely to exceed 511,000 by then, the latest research from the University of Washington's Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME) estimates. 

As of now, fewer than half of Americans say they 'always' wear a mask when they are in public. 

Realistically, the researchers don't anticipate masking will become near-universal - it's still a subject of heated controversy in much of the US. 

But it will be critical that states don't further relax restrictions like social distancing aimed at reducing the spread of coronavirus. Doing so, they warn, could result in more than one million Americans dying of COVID-19 by the end of February. 

Already, the pandemic has claimed the lives of well over 220,000 Americans, and the toll is rising by an average of more than 760 fatalities a day. 

Most experts - including those at the IHME - predict that deaths will only rise more  steeply as we enter the colder winter months and gatherings move indoors where there is a greater risk of transmission. 

More than 50 percent of people in the US only sometimes or never wear masks, according to the IHME study, published Friday in Nature Medicine. 

Masks can reduce the risk of COVID-19 transmission by up to 30 percent, several  studies have shown.

Trump Brands Sacha Baron Cohen As "That Unfunny Creep"

 President Trump is no fan of Sacha Baron Cohen or his ‘Borat’ character.

The notorious British comedian made headlines this week for tricking Trump ally Rudy Giuliani into an embarrassing cameo in his new film, “Borat Subsequent Moviefilm.”

“Years ago, you know, he tried to scam me. And I was the only one who said no way. That’s a phony guy. And I don’t find him funny,” Trump told reporters aboard Air Force One Friday, The Sun reported. “To me, he was a creep.”

The incident with Cohen happened roughly 15 years ago, Trump said, without going into additional details.

Cohen did score a brief interview with Trump in 2003 while dressed as his character Ali G. The faux-British rapper pitched a visibly annoyed Trump on the possibility of investing in gloves to protect your hands while eating ice cream.

“I hope you make a lot of money,” Trump told him before leaving.

The film has faced critics in other corners as well, including author and financial analyst Nassim Nicholas Taleb, who derided the character as racist.

“Borat is nearly the most racist movie in history, overtly degrading the pple [sic] of #Kazakhstan. Yet many get ‘cancelled’ for misusing a certain words out of context. So Sacha Baron Cohen & authors get a free pass by the ‘left’ because he attacks Giuliani?,” Taleb wrote on Twitter. “I visited Kazakhstan a few times. Every time, locals brought the subject & insisted that Borat was not representative, that it was unfair, that it cause a lot of damage, etc.”

Trump, Mnuchin say ball is in Pelosi’s court in COVID-19 stimulus negotiations

 

President Trump and Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin on Friday accused House Speaker Nancy Pelosi of hijacking COVID-19 economic relief by spurning their offers of urgently-needed stimulus.

Speaking in the Oval Office — just 11 days from the presidential election — Mnuchin, the administration’s point person on negotiations, said the ball was in the California Democrat’s court after months of fruitless discussions.

“We’ve offered compromises. The speaker on a number of issues has still dug in. If she wants to compromise, there will be a deal,” Mnuchin told reporters.

“We’ve made lots of progress in lots of areas but there’s still some significant differences that we’re working on,” he went on.

The Trump administration raised their most recent offer to $1.8 trillion but that is still significantly lower than the Democrat’s $3.3 trillion starting point. Republicans in Congress are unwilling to support anything higher than $2 trillion.

Hope that a fifth wave of relief will pass Congress before the election has essentially faded, prompting a fierce round of finger pointing as Democrats accuse Republicans of penny-pinching during an unprecedented recession caused by the pandemic.

But Trump on Friday said the speaker was trying to secure funding for matters unrelated to the pandemic and claimed she didn’t want to reach a deal before the election.

Trump Announces Sudan-Israel Peace Deal; Says Five More Coming – Possibly Including Saudi Arabia

 President Donald Trump announced Friday that Sudan will start to normalize ties with Israel, making it the third Arab state to do so as part of U.S.-brokered deals in the run-up to Election Day.

The deal, which would deepen Sudan’s engagement with the West, follows Trump’s conditional agreement this week to remove the North African nation from the list of state sponsors of terrorism if it pays compensation to American victims of terror attacks.

It also delivers a foreign policy achievement for Trump just days before the U.S. election and boosts his embattled ally, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Recently, the United States brokered diplomatic pacts between Israel and the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain. Jordan recognized Israel in the 1990s.

He said “at leave five” other countries “want to come in” and join the UAE, Bahrain and now Sudan, added that “many more” will follow, indicated that Saudi Arabia would be one of them, and predicted that ultimately Iran would follow suit.

Joint Statement of the United States, the Republic of Sudan, and the State of Israel:
