9/11 happened because Rabbi Kahane's murder wasn't investigated

 

On Thursday, during the memorial for the late Rabbi Meir Kahane, who was murdered 32 years ago, right-wing activist Baruch Marzel recalled the events surrounding Rabbi Kahane’s death.

“He was the first person murdered by Al-Qaeda. It was done in America because it wasn't investigated well by the FBI – we all know for what reasons,” 

Marzel, who was a student of the late Rabbi Kahane, tells Israel National News. “The same people that did it, they’re the ones that are [behind the] bombing of the Twin Towers [on 9/11]. Thousands of Americans paid with their lives for not investigating the murder.”

“Otzma Yehudit is ours, we started Otzma Yehudi. Itamar Ben-Gvir decided to become a minister, to become an important person, and for that he told me in person that he's not continuing the way,” he explains. “He’s changed, he's different, and we never change. We want to stay where I was more than 50 years ago, to be there, to stay there, because there's a lot of people [suggesting] solutions to the terrorist problems, the problems with our enemies, but we want to finish the problem, not to deal with the symptoms. We want to finish what causes the problem, and the problem is a religious war that we have with the Muslims. I'm not saying a hundred percent of them but most of them support that all of the Land of Israel belongs to them, and they want us out of here. Every day that the State of Israel exists is a disgrace to Islam, that's why they're fighting us. They'll continue to fight us.”

Speaking about the murder of Ronen Hanania, who was killed in a terrorist attack in Kiryat Arba, he says:

“We don't have a problem only with that terrorist. We have a problem with thousands of Arabs who went out chanting that night, who made firecrackers, gave out candy, and were happy for the murder of Jews in Hebron. We have a problem not only with the people that the mayor of Hebron, that's a murderer that killed six Jews, he was elected already three times to be the mayor of Hebron, everyone that supports him because he killed Jews. He is my enemy the same way.”

When asked what the practical solution to the issue is, he responds that “we want to transfer them out of Israel.”

“How do we do it? We have to help these people not to be here, because if they're here, it's us or them. They want us out of here. It's against their religion that the State of Israel exists. It's against their beliefs and they're going to fight us. I’m not talking about a hundred percent of the Arabs. There are some Arabs that could stay. But most of them support Balad, support the Islamic movements, support Ahmad Tibi. They are enemies.”

“How do we do it? We have to help these people not to be here, because if they're here, it's us or them. They want us out of here. It's against their religion that the State of Israel exists. It's against their beliefs and they're going to fight us. I’m not talking about a hundred percent of the Arabs. There are some Arabs that could stay. But most of them support Balad, support the Islamic movements, support Ahmad Tibi. They are enemies.”

With tonight being the memorial for Rabbi Kahane, Marzel says that he is not giving up the fight, even after 50 years of activism. He also fondly recalls his time as a student of the late rabbi.

“Inside he was soft and bashful and the nicest person in the world. Also when he went out to fight he was strong like a rock. He was a very big Torah scholar, he had a lot of knowledge and he had a lot of love for the people of Israel,” he says. “We learned from Rabbi Kahane to love Jews. You love your kids, when you love someone even if they don't go exactly your way, you continue to love them, and that's why we're continuing.”

How "Erliche Yeedin" Described Their Feelings Voting the Very First Time in Israel

 

Below is the emotion-laden diary entry of Rav Moshe Alpert on his feelings at the first elections in 1949.

“At 5:35 AM we woke up, my wife, my brother Reb Shimon Leib and my brother-in-law Reb Natanel Solduchil. And after we drank coffee we put on Shabbat clothing in honor of this great and holy day, because ‘This is the day the Lord has made, we will rejoice and be happy on it .’

After 2000 or more years of exile, you could say that from the six days of Creation until this day, we have not merited to see a day like this, that we are holding elections in a Jewish state. Shehechiyanu! Blessed is the One that kept us alive and sustained us and brought us to this day! So we went to the voting station near Chabashim Street with our identity cards in hand. With great and mighty joy we walked the short way there, and the entire way I walked like it was Simchat Torah and I was circling with a Torah scroll, because I was holding the identity card of our new Jewish State in my hand.

My happiness and joy knew no bounds! The assistant at the voting station brought the ballot box, and the chairman called out to me and said ‘V’Hadarta Pnei Zaken’ – ‘And you shall honor the old man’, And he told me that since I was the oldest person present, I would be the first to vote. With a thrill of awe and holiness, I handed my identity card over to the chairman, and he read out my name from my card and from the book of voters.

And the deputy chairman wrote down my name and handed me the number 1. Then he handed me an envelope and I went into the other room, where there were ballots from all the parties. And with a shaking hand, moved with holiness, I took one ballot marked “B,″ for the Religious Union party, and I placed the ballot inside the envelope I had received from the deputy chairman.

I reentered the polling room, and I showed them that I held only one envelope. Then the holiest moment of my life arrived. The moment that neither my father nor my grandfather had the privilege to experience in their lifetimes. Only me, in my time, in my lifetime, did I merit to experience such a holy and pure moment as this… What joy for me and my portion!

At 6:28 AM, we returned home and went to pray. 

What a great holiday!″

Shlomo Carlebach the Legend Z"L

 

by his daughter, Dari 

People all over the world talk about my father, about his songs and Torah and his legacy. And I appreciate all these. But the real truth is that when I think about him, I think about him as he was, as a person. 

He had a child like quality about him. When he watched TV, he was mesmerized like he was 5. It took him 2 hours to tell a joke, just because the first 1 hour and 55 minutes, he was laughing so hard about the punchline, he had to restart it 89 times. He had a line for everything. He was particularly talented at turning a very clean room into a tornado in under 4 minutes, with all his things, mainly searching thru his papers, endless little pieces of papers that people wrote their numbers down for him, ( he pre-dated cell phones).

His suitcases were filled 80% with his sefariim, 17 % with vitamins, protein bars and interesting health gadgets that some healing person had gifted him with, and 3 % personal items like clothes or shoes, tefillin and tallis. More times than I can count,  He got off a plane from somewhere hot into a snow blizzard in the dead of winter and arrived at our house in Toronto with his sandals and no socks because socks and closed shoes probably didn't make the cut in comparison to the one more sefer that could fit in. 

He loved mango juice and seltzer and ate ice cream with a toothpick so it would last longer.

He loved burnt food because his mother was a horrible cook and burnt everything so if I wanted to really make him happy, I'd make him burnt eggs and burnt toast and his whole face would light up as he ate it.

He loved pools and Jacuzzis and he was famous for walking thru the hotel to get to the pool area in his buttoned up raincoat and no shoes, looking like a flasher, because a bathrobe didn't make the cut either and he only wore white button shirts and black pants and later vests. He hated ties.

He could sit on the beach with us fully clothed and get more tanned in 5 minutes than I did in 2 hours.

His laugh sounds like a wheezy engine dying, taking its last breath and it was Infectious and impossible not to laugh when he laughed even if it wasn't funny.

He walked slower than a sloth and it could take endless amount of time to get anywhere, partly because of his pace, and partly because he had to stop and hug and greet every person we passed. If we went to a restaurant,  he wouldn't sit down at our table until he said hello to every person at every table.

He was a master at ping pong and always won. He was generous to a fault and could easily give away hundreds, (or thousands of dollars, if he had been paid in cash) or his coat off his back or the kippah off his head without blinking. I remember this one time, we ordered in food for dinner. My father ordered the pickled pike ( he loved herring, lox and any fish that was pickled), and hadn't eaten all day.  We sat down to eat, and I quickly went to get salt from the kitchen and when I came back to the table, the dog was walking away with the entire fish in her mouth. My father just looked at me as if it was the most normal and obvious thing to give the dog his entire dinner and said " Nebach, she was so hungry."

He loved the aisle seat on the airplane and the peanuts that came with the drink and the first thing he did when he sat down in his seat was take off his shoes and put all the random things from his pants and vest pockets into the front pocket of the airplane seat in front of him.

He was always tired as sin and could fall asleep sitting, standing, or anything in between. Cars made him nervous and he held onto the handle at the top of the car window alot and said "oy oy oy oy" alot if the driver went too fast.

The first thing he said when he opened up his eyes in the morning  was "Put on water for coffee". And he wasn't able to stay mad for more than 2 minutes. The 3 times he yelled at me in my whole life, after 30 seconds,  he laughed and said " OK sweetest, let's make peace between me and you".

His favorite color was blue, and he had a chassidic rabbi to pray to for literally every possible situation.  When we often arrived at the airport an hour or more late for a flight, we would just start praying, u could see him standing in front of the check- in clerk, whispering ויקרא  הליגה רבי לוי יצחק בן שורה סאשא אניני" and more than half the time, some miracle would happen and we would get on the flight.

When I wasn't feeling well, he would say " oh sweetest,  give me half your pain" And when I asked him a question, he would say, give me a kiss and then I'll tell u everything ".He rarely said No.

If I liked a boy, and he didn't think he was good enough for me, he would say " really, darling, he doesn't reach your toenails"

He called me everyday no matter where he was in the world. When he called or answered the phone, he rarely said "This is Shlomo." Usually he would say " This is the Pope" or " Hi, it's Brother Fritz". When he hung up with me,  he always said "Good Shabbas" after saying I love you most, most, most.

He remembered every name of every person he ever met and even if only 2 people showed up at his concert, he would perform because he believed that u never knew who was the soul who needed uplifting at that moment.

He made regular rounds to the homeless hub under the Riverside Park by 79th st. He would walk thru there, hugging and kissing each person  and he knew all their names and all their stories. When he met someone new anywhere in the world,  his signature move after giving them a hug was giving out his card and saying, " Call me for no reason"

He read Danielle Steele in German. And he religiously wore Azzaro perfume and put Fa bubbles in his bath.

These are the things I think of and miss. His laugh, his smell, his walk, his soft but slightly scratchy from his beard kisses on my forehead. His wide warm hands, when he held mine.

I will always be grateful to be his daughter.

Emboldened With the US Elections, Ambassador Nides like a roach that comes out when the light turns on states 'We will fight against any attempt at annexation'

 

United States Ambassador to Israel Thomas Nides sent a warning regarding the possibility that the next government will attempt to annex land in Judea and Samaria. In an interview with Kan News on Thursday, the ambassador stated that he will fight against any attempt to make such a move and explained, "The United States and most of the Arab nations oppose annexation."

The ambassador opened by expressing his willingness to work with the new government, saying, "I want to start with a relationship with this government that is strong and enduring, I want to work closely with Prime Minister Netanyahu, I want to work closely with his government."

"This country is a democracy that elected a leadership and I intend to work with them," the ambassador stated, but immediately added, "That said, we have to stand up for the things that we believe in, that's what American values are about. We have a very strong alley in the state of Israel, but there will be times when we will articulate where we believe our differences are."

On Wednesday night, Ambassador Nides visited the Allenby Crossing at the Jordanian border, which, under American pressure, has begun a trial period remaining open 24 hours a day seven days a week.

Regarding the move, the ambassador said that, "It's good for the Palestinian people it's good for the Israelis and I went there last night at midnight to check things out with the head of COGAT and with the head of the Airport Authority and a lot of other people to see it for myself." He added that he is sure that the new government will continue the cooperation with him on projects to improve the Palestinian Authority Arabs' quality of life.

Ambassador Nides was also asked if he will talk with Otzma Yehudit chairman MK Itamar Ben-Gvir, whose status has been disturbing the sleep of countless senior officials in the Biden administration.

"I'm not going to make draconian statements that I'm not going to ever talk to anyone - it doesn't matter left or right, we'll see who gets to be in his position, and what positions they take. I want to see, rhetorically what they say and how they act. My job as American ambassador is to keep dialogues going, and conversations going, but push back on things that we disagree with, and I will be pushing back aggressively on things that we disagree with. But at this point, the government is not even formed so until I know and we know who has what positions and the positions they take then we will determine what conversations will take place."

Chilling, newly discovered photos show Nazi Kristallnacht up close

 

Yad Vashem says images are first to show pogrom from indoor vantage point; indicate German public was aware and that violence was coordinated by authorities

Harrowing, previously unseen images from 1938’s Kristallnacht pogrom against German and Austrian Jews have surfaced in a photograph collection donated to Israel’s Yad Vashem memorial, the organization said Wednesday.

One shows a crowd of smiling, well-dressed middle-aged German men and women standing casually as a Nazi officer smashes a storefront window. In another, brownshirts carry heaps of Jewish books, presumably for burning.

Another image shows a Nazi officer splashing gasoline on the pews of a synagogue before it’s set alight.

Satmar Rebbe (The Iran Deal Lover) Says Many Jews Brainwashed By Trumpism while he himself was brainwashed by Obama

I agree with the rebbe about the Trumpism, However is he accusing Rav Riesman and all the mosdos hatorah of supporting. Zelden because of Trumpisim?. The rebbe should just say the real reason they supported Houhcal and Maloney because of their water project. and like I said last week Satmar like it or not is the face of the chasidishe mosdos and by supporting Houchal against the other mosdos makes their argument against the SED very weak now.

More from Rav Avigdor Miller,

“We should vote for the one who appears to us to be the most conservative. Now, I can’t tell you who that is. But there’s no question that the conservatives of today are extremely more liberal than the liberals of thirty years ago. We have already advanced so far beyond the borders of liberalism, that today we can afford to retreat many miles behind these boundries and still remain in the forefront of liberalism. And therefore, today there’s no such thing as too much conservatism. You have to vote for conservative candidates on every level – on national, state and city levels.”

 Rabbi Aaron Teitelbaum, one of just two Chasidic rabbis to endorse Governor Kathy Hochul’s election campaign, wasted no time making a public statement today, denouncing the Jewish community for its nearly universal support of her opponent, as crazed “Trumpists.”

A seven and a half minute audio clip making the rounds on social media today featured the leader of one of the two factions of Satmar discussing Election Day win during a lecture on Psalms held this morning in Kiryas Joel.

Addressing participants, Rabbi Teitelbaum shared that someone told him this morning that he had won the election, but that that sentiment was far from the case. Instead, the Satmar grand rabbi explained, he had merely been relying on common sense to find a way to protect New York’s yeshivas from the latest round of secular education requirements.

Rabbi Teitelbaum took a dim view of some in the Jewish community, disparaging them as crazed followers of former President Donald Trump.

Continuing in a similar vein, Rabbi Teitelbaum also alluded that those Trumpster’s are WhatsApper’s.

Signs that were posted in Kiryas Joel made their way onto Twitter today, thanking the village for delivering its bloc vote to Hochul and Arutz Sheva (https://bit.ly/3UDeHbY) reported that Hochul called the Satmar Rebbe’s wife this morning to thank her for the community’s support.

Krazy kat Hochul calls Satmar Rebbi's wife, thanks her for support

 

Projected NY Governor-elect Kathy Hochul called Satmar Rebbi Aharon Teitelbaum's wife Tuesday to thank her for Satmar's support in the election campaign. Hochul stressed her commitment to improving the organization's education system.

Hochul received her first endorsement by the city's haredi community from the Satmar Rebbi on Tuesday.

"Gov. Hochul has been a friend to the community for close to a decade,” Satmar community leader Rabbi Moishe Indig told Hamodia. “She was always there for the community, and we are looking forward to continue this great relationship for another term.”

GOP challenger, Rep. Lee Zeldin, received vast support from New York's Jewish community, including the city's haredi rabbis and congregations, in part thanks to his hard stance on local crime.

Rabbi Indig said Hochul promised to protect yeshiva education.

“The governor visited the Rebbe and community leaders and she promised to be a supporter of the Jewish community in opposing antisemitism and fighting to protect the rights of parents to be able to educate their children, so that we may enjoy our rights to freedom of religion," he was quoted as saying.

A Satmar letter of support claims Hochul "defended our holy education," while acknowledging that a majority of haredi institutions supported Zeldin.

Rabbi Avi Shulman Passes Away in Monsey

 

We are sad to inform readers of the passing of one of the most inspiring individuals of this past generation.  He was a man who changed the landscape of Torah observant Judaism in America.  He eschewed the title of Rabbi, calling himself Mr. Avi Shulman.

He was one of the founders of Torah uMesorah’s project SEED, which led tens of thousands of people to becoming true Bnei Torah.

His sole focus and passion was to help others – to help mechanchim, to help students, to help marriages.  He had remarkably unique skills and insights in which he accomplished these goals.

He was an observer.  He saw what the qualities were that created success, and what led to failures.  he took that wisdom and gave them over to others in remarkable ways.

He was a speaker, an educator, an invaluable life coach. He encouraged people to be the best that they can be.  

We’re Fed Up with You, Leftist Hypocrites

 

By

 David Israel

MK Simcha Rothman is probably the major grownup in the conference room of Religious Zionism and Otzma Yehudit (Meet Religious Zionist Simcha Rothman, Ben Gvir’s Moderate Ally), so when he loses it, I pay attention. 

On Tuesday morning, he lost it, which, in Rothmanland came out as an angry, well-written, and lengthy post on Facebook. He wrote:

Luckily, this nightmare is behind us. And it’s a shame that all those “good souls” who are terribly worried now about the loss of democracy, were simply asleep for the past year and a half.

Hypocrites, we’re fed up with you.

The right-wing in Israel is democratic, nationally minded, and attentive to legitimate criticism. The orchestrated cries of the brave journalists on the left may not win them a Pulitzer Prize, but they certainly deserve an Oscar for direction, production, and best actors and actresses.

It’ll be OK. Take a deep breath.

Rothman opened his post with a litany of cogent grievances against the Lapid-Bennett-Gantz government, which he said he wished he had posted back in May 2021, to be officially recognized as an angry prophet of the center-left government. Here goes, I suspect you and I would agree with all of it:

Earth's population will hit EIGHT BILLION next week

 

The world's population is set to hit eight billion next week in a key milestone for humanity, according to the United Nations. 

The UN Population Division said that the population will continue to grow in the decades to come, with life expectancy set to increase to an average of 77.2 years by 2050.

By November 15, the number of humans on Earth will grow to eight billion, more than three times higher than the 2.5 billion global headcount in 1950.

The increase in life expectancy, as well as the number of people of childbearing age, has meant the UN predicts the world's population will continue growing to about 8.5 billion in 2030, 9.7 billion in 2050, and a peak of about 10.4 billion in the 2080s.

But the world's population growth rate, after a peak in the early 1960s, has decelerated dramatically to below 1 per cent in 2020, Rachel Snow of the UN Population Fund said.

That figure could potentially fall to around 0.5 percent by 2050 due to a continued decline in fertility rates, the United Nations projects.

In 2021, the average fertility rate was 2.3 children per woman over her lifetime, down from about five in 1950, according to the UN, which projects that number to fall to 2.1 by 2050.

'We've reached a stage in the world where the majority of countries and the majority of people in this world are living in a country that is below replacement fertility,' or roughly 2.1 children per woman, says Snow.

A key factor driving global population growth is that average life expectancy continues to increase: 72.8 years in 2019, nine years more than in 1990. And the UN predicts an average life expectancy of 77.2 years by 2050.

Is the USA finally tiring of its support for Ukraine?

 

After long months of displaying unquestioning support for Ukraine in its war with Russia, the tide appears to be turning in the United States, with senior members of the Biden administration informing Ukrainian leaders that they risk losing support unless they signal willingness to negotiate with Russia.

White House sources told The Washington Post that the intention is not to pressure Ukraine to hold talks with Russia, but rather to ensure that Ukraine's stance is not perceived as entirely inflexible, which could potentially lead European countries to cut back on the weapons aid they are sending to Ukraine.

Ukrainian President Zelensky has apparently ruled out direct talks with Russian President Putin, justifying his approach by claiming that one cannot negotiate with Putin in good faith. However, the door remains open to lower-level officials holding negotiations.

“Ukraine fatigue is a real thing for some of our partners,” an unnamed US official told The Washington Post. Skyrocketing fuel prices across Europe have indeed led to calls to scale back the massive support being provided to Ukraine. Several countries have already begun rationing electricity and passing legislation restricting electricity use.

Skyrocketing fuel prices across Europe have indeed led to calls to scale back the massive support being provided to Ukraine. Several countries have already begun rationing electricity and passing legislation restricting electricity use.

Approached for comment, a spokesman for the US state department said: “We’ve said it before and will say it again: Actions speak louder than words. If Russia is ready for negotiation, it should stop its bombs and missiles and withdraw its forces from Ukraine.

“The Kremlin continues to escalate this war,” he added. “The Kremlin has demonstrated its unwillingness to seriously engage in negotiations since even before it launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine.”

On Sunday, President Zelensky spoke with European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen to discuss continued financial aid and penalties he wishes to see applied against Iran, which, he alleges, is supplying drones to Russia to be used in the war.

Taylor Swift adds Orthodox-friendly dates to her upcoming tour

 

“You’re On Your Own, Kid,” isn’t just the name of a track on Taylor Swift’s newest album — the phrase describes the way many of the pop star’s Jewish fans were feeling after she released the dates for her upcoming tour.

This week, Shabbat-observant Swifties voiced their disappointment with the dates, which were all slated for during or just after the end of the Jewish Sabbath, on Friday or Saturday nights. (There was one scheduled for April 2, a Sunday, in Arlington, Texas.)

In response, Swift added eight more shows to the U.S. leg of her tour on Friday, all on weeknights, in cities such as Philadelphia, Seattle and Los Angeles. Many applauded the additions.

Swift’s “Midnights” album sold over a million copies in its first week, and she is now tied with Barbra Streisand as the female artist with the most albums to top the Billboard chart. The singer will take the Jewish Haim sisters, who feature in the music video for Swift’s song “Bejeweled,” along for part of the tour.

The ad reads that the car has special "segulois"

Question: If the car has indeed "segilois" why is the Rebbe selling it?

Monsey Rabbanim Issue Letter Calling Skver's Endorsement of Eisenpress a Chillul Hashem!

 Judge Eisenpress running for Family Court Judge in Monsey is a far-leftist LGBT advocate, and the Skverer Rebbe endorsed her!

The letter above states that anyone endorsing this pervert lover who calls herself Eisenpress "is causing a huge Chillul Hashem"

Skver sends out "Sample Ballot" With "Krazy Kat" Hochul and her perverts HIGHLIGHTED

 

This is the sneaky method that the Skverer Regime uses to get their stupid naive sheep to vote for who they choose!

The candidates that Skver highlighted are all against Torah values!

Know that Skver has signs that instruct their residents on which side they may walk on; men on one side and only women on the other. 

For these "narishkeitin" they are machmir, but when it comes to the mighty $$$$, they will abandon the entire torah and have their residents vote for sick perverts and candidates that are pro-crime. 

צדיקים ילכו בם וחסידים של סקווער יכשלו בם

Finally, Israelis voted to win back the country and the sanctity of their Jewish heritage

 

The sum of it is that one morning the Israelis woke up to realize, in a flash of awareness, that the country was stealthily being taken from them.

The moment of clarity turned them handily to the Right, topped by Netanyahu. Better yet, call it a moment of sanity.

This was like coming to your senses after a hangover…or awakening in a rush from the malaise of the past few years, the years of Bennett, Gantz, and Lapid.

MSNBC Rips into "Krazy Kat" Hochul
