Skver Joins his Satmar brother-in-law in Endorsing the pro=crime Hochul shiksa, Also Backs the LGBT Maloney ... Torah Values are not part of the "Cheshbin"

 

Skver has thrown its support behind Democrat Kathy Hochul for governor, joining Satmar’s Aronim faction in backing the incumbent who has signaled that she will not do anything to oppose the New York Board of Regents’ attacks against yeshivas.

Skver and Satmar are now the only two voting blocs within the broader Orthodox Jewish community in New York who have spurned their brethren in endorsing Republican Lee Zeldin and his pledge to support Orthodox Jews and yeshivas and protect their way of life.

Skver also endorsed Rep. Sean Patrick Maloney, a Democrat who is locked in a tight race with Assemblyman Mike Lawler.

Despite the endorsements of Hochul and Maloney, many Satmar Aronim and Skverers are expected to vote for the Republicans, with their leadership’s endorsements having little effect on their vote in the crime-ridden and anti-yeshiva climate of New York.

AntiSemitic Biden Admin. won't work with Ben-Gvir

 

The Biden Administration is likely to refuse to work with Otzma Yehudit chairman Itamar Ben-Gvir if he becomes a minister in Israel's next government, Axios reported.

Two US officials said that no final decision has been made yet, but the administration is likely to boycott Ben-Gvir, who would become the first Israeli minister the US government would refuse to work with.

Ben-Gvir has expressed a desire to serve as Public Security Minister, a position which would make him responsible for the Israel Police and the policy in the holy places in Jerusalem, including the Temple Mount and the Al-Aqsa Mosque.

The Public Security Minister is involved in a range of collaborations and contacts between Israel and the US - in the political field regarding Jerusalem, in the civilian field in the issue of visas to the US, and in the field of security cooperation.

Officials from Otzma Yehudit responded: "The undemocratic campaign that the Israeli left is trying to push continues. We know very well who in Israel is trying to incite the Americans to interfere in Israeli democracy and what their interests are."

The unnamed official further noted that opposition leader Netanyahu is well aware of the "problematic" aspects of appointing Ben-Gvir as a minister. "Anyone who has any sense realizes how problematic this is. Just look at this man's past history, the things he's done, the statements he's made. This isn't someone we want to see in government. Netanyahu is a wise and seasoned politician and he understands the ramifications of such a development. This has yet to be discussed with him since, as I said, it's still early days. But there's no doubt that he's aware of this."

Hochul's "no bail" Frees Guy who then Executes wife in front of kids just hours later

'She should be charged' Kathy Hochul killed my daughter: Grieving mom blames no-cash bail for daughter's execution

 A mom of three was executed in front of her kids less than 24 hours after her estranged husband was sprung from jail on no bail over a caught-on-camera beatdown she’d posted to her Facebook page in a desperate plea for help.

The shocking case — in Gov. Kathy Hochul’s western New York hometown — has sparked fresh outrage to New York’s no-cash-bail laws and to the governor and fellow Democrats for refusing to repeal them.

Adam Bennefield, 45, who has a prior conviction for kidnapping another ex at gunpoint, is now charged with shooting dead his 30-year-old wife, Keaira Bennefield.

The victim was taking her young children — ages 6 months to 9 years — to school on the morning of Oct. 5, when he ambushed her on a road and gunned her down, authorities said.

Bennefield was free to carry out the alleged murder after being released from custody a day earlier despite the horrific attack on his wife inside her home.

The ordeal first erupted back on Sept. 28 when Keaira called 911 to say she’d been punched by Bennefield in her home, the Buffalo News reported.

Ben-Gvir: I'll work for everyone - even people who don't like me

 

MK Itamar Ben-Gvir (Religious Zionist Party) visited Shaare Zedek Medical Center in Jerusalem Wednesday morning to meet with Ofer Ohana the volunteer paramedic who was wounded in Saturday night’s terrorist shooting attack in Hebron.

“I came to visit Ofer,” Ben-Gvir, a resident of the Givat Ha’Avot neighborhood of Kiryat Arba, adjacent to Hebron, told reporters outside of the hospital entrance.

“We’ve been friends for many years. He is a great and dear friend. I wish him a complete recovery, and we’re praying for him.”

Turning to Tuesday’s general election, Ben-Gvir said he would work to serve the entire country, including his critics.

“There are many people in the media… who don’t like me and who smear me. I’m working for everybody, that’s why I’m in politics. I’m working to strengthen the position of our soldiers and to make our country stronger.”

“I will do everything to ensure that a fully right-wing government is established, and I will work on behalf of everyone, including for those who don’t like me.”

Bobov 45 Endorses Zeldin While Sol Wediger Bribes Hochul with $25,000

 

Key Hasidic groups are endorsing Republican Lee Zeldin (R-Suffolk) for governor over Gov. Kathy Hochul in the latest sign that the incumbent is struggling with historically Democratic constituencies ahead of the final day of voting on Nov. 8.

Support from the Brooklyn-based Bobov, Bobov-45, Belz and Satmar groups could lead to thousands of additional votes for Zeldin as he pushes for a historic upset next week in a state where a Republican has not been elected governor in a generation.

Satmar’s “Aronim” Faction Doubles Down And Endorses "Shiksa/girlfriend" Kathy Hochul

 

This rebbe" was always on the wrong side of history. We remember when he backed Obama's disastrous Iran Deal and told his naive sheep to write to Congressmen that they should dis-invite the then PM Bibi Netanyahu from addressing both houses of congress to explain to them that this deal was dangerous to the 6.8 million Jews living in Israel. It is no wonder that his father the "Beirach Moshe" didn't want him as rebbe. I wonder what Hochul has over him? 

Bucking the trend of nearly every major Orthodox Jewish voting bloc giving their full-throated support to Lee Zeldin, who has vowed to protect yeshivas, in the New York governor’s race, Satmar’s “Aronim” faction endorsed incumbent Gov. Kathy Hochul.

Hochul has remained on the sidelines since the NY Board of Regents voted to approve new “substantial equivalency” standards that threaten to take a wrecking ball to yeshiva education, whereas Zeldin has repeatedly blasted the move and pledged to support yeshivas as governor.

It isn’t yet clear why the Aronim faction has thrown its support behind Gov. Hochul, though rumors are swirling that a backroom deal (?) has been reached which would benefit the Satmar faction, but not necessarily anyone else.

Arab Attempts To Kidnap Chareidi Woman From Tiberias In Broad Daylight

 

 In a shocking incident which occurred in the town of Tiberias in broad daylight, an Arab man tried to kidnap and throw a married woman into his car. 

The young religious woman fought off the man and screamed, and he was later arrested by Shin Bet operatives. The suspect, a 51-year-old Arab resident of Yafia, is being investigated on suspicion of nationalist motives in the kidnapping. 

The suspect claimed to police that the woman had been mistaken and he had not intended the kidnapping.

Ben Gvir celebrates: Time for us to return to being the landlords of our country

 

The chairman of the Otzma Yehudit Party, MK Itamar Ben Gvir, spoke on Tuesday night at the party's headquarters at the VERT Jerusalem Hotel, after the Religious Zionist-Otzma Yehudit slate won 14-15 seats in the next Knesset, according to the results of the exit polls.

Ben Gvir said, "We still don't know if the bloc won 61 seats. I remember the celebrations of the last elections, which ended in a government with Ra'am. But what is certain is that we must give thanks for the great achievement of Religious Zionist-Otzma Yehudit, and for the great connection to the people of Israel.”

“I think the great achievement came, among other things, due to the fact that we represent everyone; secular and religious, haredim and traditional, Sephardim and Ashkenazim, city and village people, farmers, teachers, self-employed, policemen and soldiers, and all of them are all asking for real change. They want to walk safely on the street. They ask that the hands of our soldiers and policemen not be handcuffed.”

They want to make a complete separation between those who are loyal to the State of Israel and we have no problem with them, and those who undermine the existence of the State of Israel as a Jewish state, and those who throw rocks and firebombs, hurt female prison guards and behave as if they are in charge.”

“The public wishes for a leadership that will protect the Land of Israel, that will develop the Negev and the Galilee, that will protect our capital Jerusalem and settle Judea and Samaria.”

“The public wants changes in the judicial system and independent judges, but more judges with a Jewish Zionist agenda.”

“It's still too early to summarize, but we have dreams and I promise even those who didn't vote for me, from distant parties, that we are brothers.”

“The time has come for our boys and girls to be able to walk safely in the street, it is time for the IDF soldiers and Israel Police officers to receive support. It's time for us to return to being the landlords of our country."

Yitzhak Wasserlauf, number 5 on the Religious Zionist-Otzma Yehudit slate, said, "We are happy about the result, we hope that these will be the true results, that we can establish a real right-wing government that is good for the people of Israel. We will work in cooperation with our friends in religious Zionism, I believe that this will continue. That the people of the left and the Arabs will continue to be afraid

Bear enters Carlebach Shul in Pomona and doesn't like that the Bima is not in the middle

 

A bear in apparent search of a minyan entered the Ohr Shlomo Chasidic Center, aka the Carlebach Shul, in Pomona near Monsey on Sunday night, walked around for a bit, and upon finding nobody to join him, left, but not before trying to figure out why the bima wasn't in the middle like other frum shuls.

Being near wooded areas, bears are not uncommon sightings around the shul, but a bear in the shul isn’t an everyday occurrence. In this case, someone left a door to the shul’s teen minyan room open, providing the oversized mammal with an opportunity to get inside.

Chassidim Attack Rebbetzin Yemimah Mizrachi N’shei Women’s Event in Yerushalayim

 A mega-gathering of all the N’shei organizations from across Yerushalayim devolved into chaos Sunday night when a group of Eitz hardliners attacked and attempted to break up the event.

The event, which was sponsored by Eretz HaKodesh, served as inspiration and chizzuk to the 500+ women who joined and featured Rebbetzin Yamima Mizrachi as the keynote speaker, as well as music by Mrs. Mimi Luria, as well as an address from an Eretz Hakodesh representative who explained the important work that they do.

In middle of the event, a bunch of goons who had heard about it through the various flyers distributed around Yerushalayim neighborhoods, crashed the event and began making problems.

At first, the hoodlums locked the doors to the venue with cable ties, then broke down the door and began throwing objects and stink bombs at the women. They proceeded to then attempt to physically destroy the event, overturning tables and knocking down signs.

Eventually, the women were able to get the radical loons out and police arrived to ensure the safety of the attendees.

“The event went on as scheduled, and it was beautiful despite certain individuals’ attempts to stop it,” an event attendee said:

 “Ootzoo eitzah v’sufar, dabru davar v’lo yakum.”

Thousands accompany Roshei Yeshivah with song and dance to vote! 

 

Eida Charedit "Rabbanim" , call on followers not to vote in Israel's elections against the ruling of "Daas Torah"

 

So now I ask?

What's "Daas Torah?"

I have to laugh. I drove all over Beit Shemesh and Yeushalyim and I saw signs that "Daas Torah" dictates that everyone must go out and vote. 

The Eida Ha'chreidis, on the other hand, say that "Daas Torah" dictates that voting is equivalent to worshipping idols, and it's "yehareg ve'al yaavor."

So, which is it? 

In keeping with the usual pre-election tradition, on Sunday night a demonstration was held in Jerusalem's Meah She'arim neighborhood against Tuesday's elections.

The protest was attended by Eida Haharedit rabbis, who called on the group's members not to vote in the elections.

Participating in the protest were thousands of local residents, and speaking at the event were members of the Bais Din, as well as local leaders who constitute the Eida Haharedit communities.

In their speeches, the members of the Eida Haharedit spoke out "against the participation of haredim in the elections to the Knesset of 'heretics,'" which they also described as the "cooperation with the seculars."

They also described how the haredi community "took a right" and is "provoking the nations" on everything regarding diplomatic issues.

Following the protest, the crowd dispersed, but several dozen people went to Bar Ilan Street, clashing with security forces stationed there.

The Chareidie hoodlum who Burned Down the Cellphone Store in Geulah is from Beit Shesh

 

*Beit Shemesh News*

 A 20-year-old resident of Beit Shemesh was arrested on suspicion of setting fire to a store in Jerusalem*

Police spokeswoman: At the beginning of this month, a fire occurred in a cell phone seller's business in downtown Jerusalem. As a result of the fire, the store and the equipment inside were heavily damaged, and residents of a nearby building had to evacuate due to the smoke that was there.

The police worked to collect findings and evidence at the scene, and following the suspicion of arson, an investigation was launched. 

Tonight, the detectives of the Zion Area Crime Fighting Unit (ILF) with the assistance of Jerusalem District police officers from other units, arrested a suspect in his home, a resident of Beit Shemesh in his 20s, on suspicion of his involvement in setting fire to the store.

The suspect who was arrested was transferred to the Zion Police Station for questioning and later today he will be brought before the High Court with a request to extend his detention, the police investigation continues.

Chareidie Party Uses Verse in the Torah that requires all to go to the army to get the vote out

 

האחיכם יצאו למלחמה

ואתם תשבו פה

Moshe Rabbeinu speaking to the children of Gad and Reuvein, asked them

"? האחיכם יבאו למלחמה ואתם תשבו פה "

"You expect your brothers to go out and fight, while you sit home?"

This verse is commonly used by those serving in the IDF to those who refuse to.

"Gimel" is the party of the Chareidim and to encourage those who refuse to vote, to vote, they took this pasuk where Moshe chastises the Bnei Gad and the Bnei Reuvein who he thought wouldn't join his army and use it for their own selfish motives.

What chutzpah!

The very argument that Moshe used to demand army service, is being used for their election efforts.

Don't they see the irony of all this ?

Chazzan Helfgott Sings "Retzei" at his Daughter's Wedding

 

Herzog tells US Jewish leaders to respect results of Israel's election

 Israeli President Isaac Herzog spoke to American Jewish leaders on Monday, telling them to accept the results of Israel's Knesset election tomorrow regardless of the results.

Speaking by video to the Jewish Federations of North America’s General Assembly in Chicago, Herzog said:

 “Dear friends, tomorrow Israelis will go out to vote. I know the frequency of elections in Israel is somewhat unnerving, and I am aware of the questions posed in many Jewish communities around the world about the outcome of the elections.”

“They are also evidence of a vibrant, dynamic democracy,” he said. “We must all recognize that the Israeli people, abundant with diversity and varying opinions, are correctly exercising their fundamental democratic right to vote."

He added: “The results may or may not be to your liking, but the vote of the Israeli people should be respected. Beyond this, I say to each and every one of you that the firm, vital connection between the State of Israel and North American Jewry will not, and should not, be compromised, whatever the results."

Herzog's statements come as several American Jewish leaders have expressed concern over the prominence of Otzma Yehudit leader MK Itamar Ben-Gvir in the current election.

“I have every confidence in the bonds we share, which run deeper than politics or shifting circumstances. We are all bigger than this," Herzog said.

Kasho Rebbe "Hochul a Rasha All DemonRats are Garbage!"

 

A scathing pre-election speech believed to given a by a prominent Chasidic rabbi slammed Governor Kathy Hochul, denouncing her as a wicked person while issuing a scathing rebuke of any religious Jew who votes for her.

The speaker is believed to be Rabbi Avraham Sholom Blum, from Williamsburg son of the late Kasho Rebbe, Rabbi Raphael Blum, Zt’l who is highly respected as a Torah scholar and for his keen understanding of politics in addition to having been extremely involved in the yeshiva education issue.

Speaking in Yiddish in recent days, the rabbi called out Hochul supporters who say that she has defended yeshivas, noting that the governor has remained quiet on the issue and has done nothing to advocate for Jewish educational institutions, and that those who say otherwise are not being truthful.

He spoke strongly against the Democratic party, decrying them as promoters of immoral behavior.

“What I don’t understand is how in the world religious Jews can vote for any Democrat, a party that indulges in the lowest behavior and all kinds of abominations,” said the rabbi.

The rabbi had equally harsh words for Jews who vote for Hochul in the hopes that she will funnel more money to yeshivas, saying that they are overlooking how New York’s State Education Department appears to be intent on destroying the Jewish educational system.

“You forget that you are a religious Jew for a few dollars,” said the rabbi.

Sharing a conversation that he once heard from a grand rabbi, the speaker spoke out strongly against the New York Times for its relentless attacks on the Chasidic and Orthodox communities. He noted that the grand rabbi referred to the newspaper as “The New York Tima,” saying that it was full of tima – filth – “because it always has something bad to say about religious Jews.”

In contrast to his views on Hochul, the rabbi praised Congressman Lee Zeldin as an ethical individual, someone who has spoken out in favor of yeshiva education even at tremendous personal cost, with liberals attacking him for his statements.

Describing Zeldin as someone who is unafraid to stand up for the truth, the rabbi said he believed that the Republican is the best choice for New York’s next governor.

Understanding that there are those who have been considering staying home on Election Day, the rabbi said that he himself had considered not voting, but then reconsidered, realizing that it is a kiddush Hashem to show appreciation to those who support the causes that matter most to the Jewish community.

FakeNews! Lihi Lapid not a Messianic Jew.

 

Lihi Lapid, wife of Israeli Prime Minister Yair Lapid, is pushing back on claims she is a messianic Jew.

Rumors that Mrs. Lapid is secretly affiliated with a Christian church began circulating on the internet last week, after a video by messianic Jewish preacher Chaim Malespin went viral.

In the video, Malespin claimed that Lihi Lapid “is a believer [in Jesus].”

“We’re in a time with more congregations, more openness to the Gospel. Even the government, the Prime Minister’s wife, is a believer right now… Yair Lapid’s wife, Lihi, is a believer.”

“Like what? This is, what? I mean a confirmed believer. This is crazy stuff going on right now in Israel. Hallelujah! Yeah, we’re living in exciting times.”

After Malespin’s video went viral, Mrs. Lapid’s personal website, LihiLapid.com, was hacked, with references to Christianity added.

In addition, Lihi Lapid’s Wikipedia page was edited to reference the rumor that she is a practicing, Christian.

“Her and her family are christians belonging to the messianic church,” the addition read.

Shortly afterwards, the Wikipedia entry was edited, removing the claim, and Lihi Lapid’s website taken down.

A spokesperson for Mrs. Lapid told the London-based Jewish Chronicle that that “Lihi Lapid's website was blocked after it had been hacked and used to spread fake news.”

A spokesperson for Prime Minister Lapid’s Yesh Atid party pushed back on the rumor, calling it “nothing short of ridiculous.”

“Somebody said something that is not true. This is the situation. It’s not true. It’s a lie. I don’t know why he said that. I don’t know what his interest is. I don’t know. But it’s a lie.”

Malespin later issued a video statement walking back his claims and issued an apology.
