Shas and UTJ Making Deal With Arab Parties to Oppose Granting Ben-Gvir Power to Enforce Illegal Arab Construction

 

 This report is from the Jerusalem Post and I really hope this isn't true! Both the Chareidim and the Arabs are denying it. 

The article explains that the Chareidie Parties need the Arab Parties to back them to pass laws to exempt Chareidim from the Draft! 

Why am I surprised?

They will sit with Eichmann and Hitler ym"s as long as they back them in their selfish scheme to get "leidegeirs" from doing what should required of every Jew. 

National Security Minister and Otzma Yehudit chairman MK Itamar Ben-Gvir announced on Monday that his party would no longer adhere to coalition discipline and would vote in the Knesset as it sees fit, after the two ultra-Orthodox (haredi) parties, Shas and United Torah Judaism (UTJ), refused to support a move that would give him broader powers to enforce construction violations.

The seemingly inconsequential spat touched on simmering political tensions on additional issues such as the haredi exemption from military service, and provided a glimpse into political wheeling and dealing occurring behind the scenes

The plenum was scheduled on Monday to approve Ben-Gvir’s takeover of the National Unit for Enforcing Planning and Construction Laws. The unit was formed in 2017 as part of the Kamenetz Law, the purpose of which was to tighten enforcement of illegal construction, especially in the Arab sector.

The unit, which has the authority to hand out fines and other sanctions for construction violators, has been under the auspices of the Finance Ministry. However, the Likud agreed, in coalition agreements signed in November 2022, that the unit would move to Ben-Gvir’s ministry.

Ben-Gvir has promoted stricter enforcement against construction violations, especially among Bedouin nomad communities in the South, and having the unit under his auspices will give him more power over it.

However, Ben-Gvir announced on Monday that the haredim were unwilling to support the move, and therefore the coalition did not have a majority for it to pass. According to Ben-Gvir, the reason the haredim opposed the move was that they had made a deal with the Knesset’s two Arab parties.

The deal was that the haredi parties would agree to block Ben-Gvir’s move in exchange for support from the Arab parties on a future bill to regulate haredi conscription to the IDF. The Arab parties strongly oppose the Kamenetz Law and argue that it is discriminatory towards Israeli Arabs, who are forced to build illegally due to insufficient urban planning by the state in Arab cities and towns.

The haredi parties are seeking to pass a new law to enable as many yeshiva students as possible to remain exempt from IDF service, after the law that granted them a blanket exemption expired.

Sources from both the haredi and Arab parties denied Ben-Gvir’s claim. The haredi and Arab parties have collaborated in the past on the issue of laws providing an exemption from IDF service, but this time that was not the case, the sources said. Hadash-Ta’al MK Ahmad Tibi called Ben-Gvir a liar, saying in a speech in the plenum that even though the

Arab parties supported the haredi exemption, they would vote against such a bill to bring down the government if their votes were the deciding factor. A source from UTJ confirmed that there was no deal between the two groups.

Following the October 7 Hamas massacre and ensuing war, the haredi constituency will no longer accept cooperation with the Israeli Arab parties, the source said.

Shas Religious Affairs Minister Michel Malkieli filibustered on the Knesset dais for approximately an hour while the sides tried to work out their differences behind the scenes, but this was unsuccessful, and the vote to move the National Unit for Enforcing Planning and Construction Laws to Ben-Gvir’s ministry was removed from the agenda. The Knesset is currently in recess and sessions are rarely held, and only after receiving special approval, and it is unclear when the next vote on the matter will occur. 

People Getting Murdered on the Streets of NYC Yet The AG Pushing this Sham Trial .. Trying to Jail Trump on a Misdemeanor

 

Trump should risk arrest and attend son's graduation, force Dems into 'political suicide'

 

After New York Supreme Court Judge Juan Merchan told former President Trump he would face arrest if he did not attend daily court sessions in his hush money trial, Fox Nation host Piers Morgan said the presumptive GOP presidential candidate should attend his son Barron's graduation, and challenge the judge's warning. "Donald Trump should go to his son's graduation … go to the graduation.

 Honestly, if you're watching, President Trump, just go to the graduation. Every parent in America, whether they like you or hate you, will go, 'Yeah, I'd have done that, too,'" Morgan said Monday on "The Five." 

 Barron Trump is graduating later this month from Oxbridge Academy in Palm Beach, Fla., while his father is scheduled to appear before Merchan in a New York courtroom 1,200 miles away. Morgan, who notably interviewed Trump for Fox Nation in a sometimes tense back-and-forth in 2022, called the case one of "the most petty, self-harming acts of political suicide I've ever witnessed."

The "Piers Morgan: Uncensored' host also called Merchan's case, brought by New York County District Attorney Alvin Bragg, "utterly ridiculous."

Judge Jeanine Pirro, who held court in neighboring Westchester County and served as its Republican prosecutor for many years, said Merchan can indeed issue a bench warrant for Trump and have him arrested, but left open whether – as Morgan suggested – it would be politically advantageous.

Morgan went on to call the idea that a former president would be taken to court with a potential 10-year felony sentence over "potentially, a one-night-stand with a porn star" completely nonsensical.

"Have you lost your minds, America? What a demeaning way to treat a former president. Secondly, if you're on the left, why would you think this would possibly work? Why would you not think that what you're doing here is going to almost guarantee Donald Trump wins the next election?" he asked.

For his part, Trump said Merchan's decision that he cannot attend Barron's graduation or Supreme Court arguments for another case he is involved in are collectively a "perfect" ploy to help the "radical-left Democrats."

"That's exactly what they want. This is about election interference, that's all," he said in remarks following his day in Manhattan court.

Fox News host Jesse Watters added that former President Bill Clinton also made headlines for his 1998 legal settlement with former Arkansas state employee Paula Jones, but did not receive the same scrutiny Trump has.

Jones received an $850,000 payment over her 1991 claim Clinton – then the state's governor – harassed her inside a Little Rock hotel. Jones – one of several Clinton accusers Trump invited as guests to a Missouri debate against the Democrat's wife Hillary during the 2016 race – claimed Clinton exposed himself and made sexual advances.

At the time of the settlement, Clinton attorney Robert Bennett said Jones claim was meritless.

Clinton White House Press Secretary Michael McCurry said at the time that Clinton was "pleased that he has received the vindication he has long awaited."

Jordan allowed Israeli fighter jets into its airspace

 

Jordan allowed Israeli fighter jets into its airspace to intercept incoming Iranian missiles and drones, an Israeli air force official told NBC News on Monday.

“In order to address something that comes from the east, we need to fly somewhere that is east of Israel,” the official was quoted as having said in a briefing to reporters. “This was done with coordination.”

While Iran’s direct attack against Israel on Saturday night was unprecedented, so was the scale of coordination between Israel and its Arab neighbor in the response. Jordanian and Israeli fighters — coordinated by the US military — acted together to intercept the barrage of drones and missiles.

In a statement on Sunday, Jordan’s government said the interceptions were made to ensure the safety of its citizens, rather than in the defense of Israel, but it is thought to be the first time the two countries’ militaries have fought side by side.

Jordan signed a peace deal with Israel in 1994 but relations have been cold at times. Many locals are against the treaty. In addition, the Jordanian parliament, which is made up mostly of Islamists, remains anti-Israel and its members have more than once called to annul the peace treaty.

The Jordanian parliament has in the past approved a proposal to establish a committee to re-evaluate all formal ties with Israel, including the peace agreement.

That decision does not necessarily mean that the peace accords with Israel will be annulled, as such a decision requires the approval of the government, the royal palace and the council advising Jordan's King Abdullah II.

Charedim will agree to draft up to 50% of yeshiva students

 

After dozens of discussions on the Draft Law, a proposal was put forward to begin drafting approximately 25% of yeshiva students who come of age each year, and later raise the percentage to 50%, which would amount to 6,000 yeshiva students, Israel Hayom reported.

According to the report, the main delay in advancing the law is connected to Defense Minister Yoav Gallant, who has tied his support of the bill to Minister Benny Gantz's approval of it. Gantz opposes the current draft.

Currently, discussions on the details of the law are under intense discussion. Meanwhile, the haredim have agreed to allow thousands of yeshiva students to enlist, compared to the 1,200 who currently enlist each year.

According to data from haredi sources, over 1,000 young men who are exempted from army service because "their Torah is their occupation" are not in the yeshivas at all.

Many others are registered in yeshivas which haredim refer to as "yeshivas for drop-outs," attended by yeshiva students who are not capable of learning but who are registered in these yeshivas in order to avoid enlistment. The haredi representatives engaged in discussions on the Draft Law are aware of this.

Mother of fallen hostage: It was not the soldiers' fault, I am glad Hamas didn't kill him

 

Iris Haim, mother of the hostage Yotam who was killed by IDF fire while trying to escape from Hamas, spoke with Arutz Sheva - Israel National News about a ceremony held today by President Herzog to honor the parents of the three hostages killed in that incident.

“It's a very emotional day for my family, exactly four months from the day that, as I call it, Yotam went free. I know that he and his friends were heroes, but getting this recognition from the President is emotional and exciting. We're happy and sad together.”

She referred to a comment she made in the aftermath of the incident, exonerating the soldier who fired at the escaping hostages. “I know that this was not their fault. They were really afraid of Hamas. This was all because of Hamas.”

“I'm glad Hamas didn't kill him" she added, "He went out of this world as a free man.”

Since the incident, she has traveled to many Jewish communities and received enormous support. “I'm going everywhere in the world and meeting the Jewish people in the diaspora. They're always telling us to continue. It's so important for them that Israel be strong.”

El Al’s Price Hike Sparks Backlash, Calls For End To Subsidies From Israeli Government

 An uproar ensued online Monday when journalist Dov Eichler of Kan Moreshet criticized El Al Airlines for fare increases following a spate of flight cancellations by other carriers due to the current security situation.

“I have no complaints against El Al, who are now charging an arm and a leg for every flight following the wave of cancellations,” he said. “My complaint is against Israel that does not immediately stop all subsidies to El Al and is even compensating it for all extras that the airline has received for years from the Israeli taxpayer’s money.”

The debate intensified with comments from another journalist, Kobi Bornstein. “But you must applaud El Al because they brought reserve soldiers from around the world at the beginning of the war. And now we are all paying for it. Do you want to go abroad while most airlines have canceled their flights? Isn’t it great that we have a national airline, that will not take advantage of the situation at all and will take you anywhere for a measly price of only a trillion dollars per ticket?” he remarked sarcastically.

Adding personal accounts to the discussion, journalists Merav Sever and Simcha Tauman shared their experiences with El Al’s pricing. Sever noted she paid $1,000 for a flight to Paris, while Tauman humorously likened the cost to buying tickets for 30 flights at once: “It’s not an arm and a leg, it’s ‘only’ one thousand dollars. It’s as if they’re telling us, or we fly with El Al for the rest of our lives, or for one flight out of 30 that we are traveling with them, we will pay for all 30 together.”

In response to the outcry, El Al stated that it is actively working to stabilize its flight operations and has adjusted its schedule to better accommodate passengers amid the return to routine at Ben Gurion International Airport.

“With the return of the Ben Gurion International Airport to routine operations, El Al is operating its flight schedule after making certain adjustments. We are working to stabilize the flight schedule as soon as possible and recommend that all passengers verify their updated departure time before leaving for the airport,” El Al said in a statement.

El Al also highlighted its efforts to provide reasonable pricing options for those affected by cancellations, citing specific fares: from Athens at $217, Paris at $361, and from New York at $795, among others. These prices are part of a special offer valid until April 20.

Moreover, the airline announced a flexible change and cancellation policy for its customers, allowing them to alter or cancel their flights without additional fees under certain conditions until the specified date.

Iran’s Jewish Community “Praises” Drone And Missile Strikes On Israel

 

In a move that was obviously coerced, Iran’s Jewish community has publicly praised the country’s recent attack on Israel. The message expressed gratitude towards Iran’s armed forces for their role in the aerial bombardment of Israel, but experts say this support comes under duress.

Alireza Nader, an expert on Iran, told the Jerusalem Post that the regime exploits the Jewish minority for propaganda purposes, noting that such expressions of support often come under pressure. “Whenever Iran seeks retribution against Israel, it tends to turn to its Jewish citizens, effectively holding them hostage to its political agenda,” Nader explained.

The statement referenced Iran’s retaliation against Israel following the reported strike that killed Iranian General Mohammad Reza Zahedi and six other regime officials in Damascus on April 1. It commended the Iranian armed forces for their efforts in “punishing the Zionist enemy.”

Despite the outward expressions of support, Iran’s Jewish population faces significant challenges. With only around 9,000 Jews remaining in the country, they are a stark minority in a population of nearly 90 million. Experts classify Iran’s Jews as second-class citizens, subjected to various forms of discrimination.

In 2023, the Iranian government pressured the Jewish community not to celebrate the end of Pesach but instead participate in the annual anti-Israel demonstration known as al-Quds Day.

Judge in Trump Doesn't Want Frum Jews as Jurors

 

Trump Attorney Gedalye Stern 

Orthodox Jews are being excluded from the Trump jury pool in New York City.

Disgraceful and overtly racist.

The left will stoop to new lows daily. And they have zero regard for any future ramifications for their actions.

It’s now or never for this hateful, destructive party.

— Mike Crispi (@MikeCrispiNJ) April 15, 2024

 The Trump-hating judge in the hush-money trial in New York City has reportedly disqualified all Orthodox Jews from being jurors. Although the official reason given is because it will create a scheduling conflict on Shabbos, the real reason is clearly because the judge is aware that Orthodox Jews generally support President Trump.

Here is a report from Newsweek:

“The judge overseeing Donald Trump’s falsifying business records case has been accused by some conservative and MAGA figures of a “sleazy” move to prevent Orthodox Jews from sitting on the New York jury by holding proceedings on Fridays.

“Ahead of proceedings starting in the Manhattan courtroom, Judge Juan Merchan, who is presiding over the trial, is accused of taking steps to stop Orthodox Jewish people from being selected for the jury. Proceedings in the case will take place on Fridays, when Jewish people observe a period of rest known as the Shabbat that prevents them from undergoing work or other activities such as driving or cooking.

“However, as others have pointed out, Shabbat occurs between sunset on Friday and Saturday, meaning that observant Jews could hypothetically still take part in jury duty during the day as the sun will be setting around 7:30 p.m. in New York. The sun will set later in the day as the trial continues into the summer, by which point court proceedings would have ended for the day.”

If accurate, this would mean that most DIN News readers, who tend to be religious Jews, would be disqualified from being jurors.

In addition, according to reports about jury selection, jurors are being given a list of 42 questions, including which podcasts they listen to.

It is very likely that listeners to Ben Shapiro or The Yaakov M Show will be disqualified by DA Alvin Bragg, because they tend to be Trump supporters.

The "segula" to get rid of annoying neighbors!”

 

by Menucha Chana Levin

This is a true story.

We had been living peacefully in our apartment for several years until the Gruskin family above us decided to move out. They were a quiet family except for their eight-year-old daughter Aviva who had an annoying habit of screeching whenever she could not get her way. Our fifteen-year-old daughter Malkie, whose bedroom was just below Aviva’s, was only too happy to see them leave.

Little did we realize that our new neighbors, the Steinharts, would be infinitely more problematic. Things got off to a dampening start when our ceiling suddenly flooded. Apparently, Mrs. Steinhart’s method of cleaning her living room floor was to drench it with several inches of water which soon dripped down through our ceiling. When informed of this unfortunate occurrence, she offered only a mild apology. This was only the first of many problems we had to endure with them. With her penchant for watery ventures, Mrs. Steinhart put a little swimming pool for her kids on their porch. It didn’t take long for the pool to overflow and cascade down upon ours. On another occasion when my husband Yehuda was sitting on our porch a huge, heavy log of wood fell down barely missing his feet. Why they kept a tree-sized log on their porch was beyond our comprehension, but Mrs. Steinhart, claiming it was ‘just an accident,’ sent us a homemade cupcake with a note stating she wanted to be a good neighbor.

Shortly afterwards, they announced they were commencing renovations, and asked politely if they could measure our kitchen to obtain some ideas for their own. To reciprocate their neighborly gesture, we agreed to it.

The epic fail of Biden’s doctrine vs. Iran — no consequences

President Biden needs to face reality: His policies of appeasing Iran while waging political warfare against Israel led Tehran to conclude it could launch a massive attack on Israel and face no consequences.

As Biden again tries to hold Israel back from defending itself while maintaining both United States and United Nations sanctions relief for Iran, he risks confirming the ayatollah’s calculation — and guaranteeing a more dangerous future for America and our democratic allies.

Iran’s weekend attack against Israel was not symbolic or performative — it was an unprecedented and unacceptable act of war.

There’s no other way to characterize the launch of 120 ballistic missiles, alongside 30 cruise missiles and 170 suicide drones, against a country the size of New Jersey — especially when the attack was committed by the state sponsor of terrorism already waging a multifront proxy war against that country.

Two questions now loom largest: Why did this happen and what is to be done?

A serial perjurer will try to prove an old misdemeanor against Trump in an embarrassment for the New York legal system

 

The famous Roman philosopher and orator Marcus Tullius Cicero once said, “The more laws, the less justice.”

This week, New York judges and lawyers appear eager to prove that the same is true for cases against Donald Trump. 

After an absurd $450 million decision courtesy of Attorney General Letitia James, Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg will bring his equally controversial criminal prosecution over hush money paid to a former porn star Stormy Daniels before the 2016 election.

Lawyers have been scouring the civil and criminal codes for any basis to sue or prosecute Trump before the upcoming 2024 election. This week will highlight the damage done to New York’s legal system because of this unhinged crusade. They’ve charged him with everything short of ripping a label off a mattress.

Just a few weeks ago, another judge imposed a roughly half billion dollar penalty in a case without a single victim who lost a single cent on loans with Trump. (Indeed, bank officials testified they wanted more business with the Trump organization).

Now Bragg is bringing a case that has taken years to develop and millions of dollars in litigation cost for all parties. That is all over a crime from before the 2016 election that is a misdemeanor under state law that had already expired under the statute of limitations.

Biden ‘sleepwalking’ US into ‘catastrophic war,’ expert says, as IDF mulls retaliatory strike against Iran

 President Biden is “sleepwalking” the US into another “catastrophic” war in the Middle East, an expert says, as the IDF prepares a retaliatory strike after Iran’s historic missile bombardment over the weekend.

Biden, 81, is facing mounting pressure to silence critics who claim he’s allowed tensions in the region to escalate, as the threat of an Israeli counterstrike on Iran looms.

“The strategy of the Biden administration has failed miserably. Biden is sleepwalking the US into another catastrophic war in the Middle East,” Fawaz Gerges, professor of International Relations and Middle Eastern Politics at the London School of Economics told NBC News.

“His overarching goal of preventing the war in Gaza from escalating into neighboring countries has failed..”

Elsewhere, Israel Defense Forces (IDF) spokesperson Peter Lerner confirmed on Monday that Israel’s retaliation could mean “strike or no strike.”

Lerner said that they are considering a “wide range of options” as there are “a lot of different scenarios” to consider.

He told reporters that the Israeli government will “decide on the steps forward” in the coming days.

“Just because we were successful in intercepting, we shouldn’t underestimate what Iran did,” Lerner added.

Ezra "kapo" Friedlander's Quatar Closed its Airspace During Iran Onslaught So That Israel or its Allies Shouldn't Respond Using their Airspace

 Below is a report from The Telegraph, Read and weep!

"Death was nowhere last night despite Tehran’s best intentions and much of that is also due to bravery from Israel’s allies. The Jordanians stood up to enormous internal pressure to take down many of the Iranian drones and missiles heading toward Israel – while core US allies like Kuwait and Qatar shamed themselves by closing their air space and air force bases to the coalition effort against Iran. "

Hey Ezra! Do you even care that your brothers and sisters are under attack? Did you denounce your client Qatar?

We remember when you wrote Op-Eds in all the Jewish media that we should support Obama's Iran Deal! 

We don't forget! 

Why Israel Must Destroy Iran and tell Biden "Go to Hell"

 

The article I posted before this one titled " A Resounding Strategic Failure for Iran" 

is a very optimistic point of view and I pray that it be correct, but the following may

 be a more practical and realistic approach 

Anyone who thinks Saturday’s Iranian drone-missile barrage against Israel was 

“the big attack” is mistaken and obviously not paying attention.

It was merely a test.

What did Iran learn? A few very useful facts.

Iran can, without any immediate consequence, shut down the airspace of nearly 

the entire Middle East.

Iran can paralyze Israel as the entire country is forced to wait in/near shelters and 

brace themselves for an unknown onslaught.

And Iran knows that with only some 200 drones and missiles, with Israel on high 

alert, and the attack telegraphed to the world days in advance, it managed to do

 the above but not

 really penetrate Israel’s defensive umbrella.

Yet, this was NOT a military failure.

It was a military operation to both save face and back up their belligerent tone in

 the aftermath of Israel’s elimination of a top IRGC general, and to test how many

 drones and missiles it’ll take to overwhelm Israel’s and its allies’ defenses.

200 drones and missiles fired. How many came from Lebanon during the

 Iranian onslaught? 50 or so. Yet Hezbollah posses more than 10,000 rockets!

Anyone still convinced that this was “the great attack” Iran has been promising

 rather than a prelude to something far more devastating?!

What this means is that those folks like @JoeBiden parading the idea that 

Israel ought to “pocket the win” for having successfully defended itself against 

a major (but relatively minor) onslaught are simply telling Israel to set the stage 

for the next round which will be inevitably worse and exact a significant human toll.

 Because if Iran was brazen enough to attack Israel with pathetic slow-flying 

drones waiting to be shot out of the sky although they possess a massive arsenal 

of far more sophisticated missiles, why the hell would anyone assume, let alone

 promote the notion that this is as far as Iran will go and therefore Iran should be 

let off the hook with no consequence?!

Israel knows this. America does too. But politics is politics so electoral decisions 

will determine how far Israel’s retaliatory hand can officially extend.

That said, considering Israel is in a Catch-22 — no response emboldens Iran, 

too harsh a response weakens the anti-Iran coalition — we can expect to see

 sabotage at Iran’s nuclear facilities on a level we have never seen before, ie 

nearly total destruction to the point of being unusable (or maybe that’s just 

wishful thinking).

Either way, none of that will change the simple fact that what we saw on Saturday

 is a drop in the bucket compared to what Iran is actually capable of, which isn’t to 

boost Iran’s Napoleon-sized ego but to reinforce why the corrupt and genocidal

 Iranian regime under @khamenei_ir must be dismantled and disabled!

Remember, children: Any regime that mercilessly beats and abuses their own

 wives and daughters in the name of bettering their society is one guaranteed to

fall and the world is always better off when they do.

The days of reckoning approach…

A Resounding Strategic Failure for Iran

 

 Iran and its jihadist Middle Eastern axis sustained a resounding strategic defeat in recent hours.

The combined Iranian attack on Israel in the early hours of April 14, comprising 170 UAVs, 30 cruise missiles and 120 ballistic missiles—more than 300 aerial threats in total—was successfully intercepted by Israel and partner militaries.

The fact that 99% of the threats were intercepted means that a central pillar of Iranian force projection—its missile and UAV arsenals—has been proven to be no match for Israel’s Air Force, its multi-layered air defense system, or for regional cooperation with allies.

For decades, Iranian military industries have been developing and producing missiles and UAV capabilities. These capabilities were used to arm Iran’s elite military force, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, and Iran’s proxies.

While Iran often activates its proxies to attack its enemies, it has, until now, kept its own powder dry, based on the idea that the firepower Iran amassed on its own soil would keep Israel, Sunni Arab countries, and the United States deterred, and would stop Israel from acting too fiercely to disrupt Iran’s hegemonic plans.

Biden the "shmuck" tells Israel not to "retaliate" Imagine if Iran Launched 100 Missiles at New York

 

*Biden told Netanyahu, U.S. Won’t Join Attack on Iran:*

U.S. President Joe Biden reportedly told Netanyahu that Israel should see Iran’s failure to cause major damage to Israel as a “win,” and that the U.S. won’t join attack on Iran.

“By leaking Biden’s conversation with Netanyahu in this way, the leaker has increased both the likelihood and importance of an Israeli response—given the dynamics that led Tehran to calculate it could launch this attack without consequence in the first place,” wrote Richard Goldberg, a senior adviser at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies.

“Can you imagine 100 ballistic missiles being fired on the United States and your closest ally calling to say, no need to retaliate, you should feel really secure right now?” he added. “Now imagine our country was the size of New Jersey. And we were fighting a seven-front war of survival.”

“No, Joe Biden. The Iranian regime’s failure to do major damage with 350 missiles is not a ‘win’—9 million Israelis spent the night being terrorized,” wrote NGO Monitor founder Gerald Steinberg. “The regime must pay a major price so that this will not be repeated. And better—showing them the door.”

Jason Brodsky, policy director at United Against Nuclear Iran, wrote that Biden’s response, “spinning an unprecedented attack by Iran on Israel,” is “akin to telling the victim of a bully—he didn’t make impact, so deescalate.”

“With this message  that the US won’t support an Israeli counterattack on Iran, Biden is signaling that his ‘don’t’ to Tehran didn’t mean anything,” Brodsky added.

Iran literally attacked the Al Aqsa Mosque but Israel Intercepted it! Why????

 

This was a great opportunity to allow Iran to bomb the Har Habayis once and for all. I would like to know who made the decision to intercept this "holy" missile! 

Former US Ambassador to Israel, David Friedman presented his "takeaways" to the massive Iranian attack and the response of Israel and its allies to the attack.

Friedman noted on social media that the attack against Israel, with more than 200 drones, cruise and ballistic missiles was "more aggressive and pervasive than expected".

"Israel’s response so far has been magnificent", he emphasized, "intercepting 99% of the incoming".

Friedman added that lots of help was provided by USA, UK, France and Jordan. "We are grateful", he wrote.

"Iran literally attacked the Al Aqsa Mosque", Friedman stressed, "Had Israel not intercepted the missile, 3rd holiest site in Islam was destroyed".

The former Ambassador stated: "This is the time for Israel, the West and the moderate Sunni nations to unite against this evil, terrorist nation".

Friedman then later added: "The fact that Israel and its Allies obliterated Iran’s onslaught of drones, cruise missiles and ballistic missiles doesn’t give Iran a free pass on its attempted murder on a mass scale. Iran needs to get a clear message that it cannot do this again".

Too Funny for Words: Peleg Decides To keep Open the Yeshiva because The Army Ordered the Closing of All Educational Activity Due To Iran Bombordman

 This is the craziest story in a very long time! The Army canceled all educational activities for today until the Iranian onslaught eases. All Yeshivois Ketanois closed. This is for their own safety as its almost impossible to get their students to a miklat in time, in case of a missile attack. And we did have a very difficult night! Practically all Kollim and the Yesivois for the older Bochrim are closed anyway because of "Bein Hazmanim" 

So what do you think happened? The Yeshiva of the Peleg Gangsters run by the Charedie Terrorist, Deutsch (Last Name Means "German," ironically) ordered his Yeshiva to be open. 

The funny part is that this Yeshiva with their R"Y Deutsch/German are the biggest "mevatlei Torah" in the entire world. Every single day, and I mean every day, they close their gemmaras and go out to protest and block traffic causing untold chaos and bedlam. To them "Bein Hazmanim" is all year long! 

Peleg announced  "Studies in the educational institutions will be held as usual " 

LOL 

"As Usual?" How sick is that? 

Despite the announcement from the Home Front Command canceling all educational activity due to the security situation in Israel, the "Jerusalem Faction" (Hapeleg Hayerushalmi) announced Saturday evening that studies in their educational institutions would proceed as usual.

"To the administrators of the institutions: By the order of our teacher, the head of the yeshiva, the great Rabbi Asher Deutsch, studies in the educational institutions will be held as usual - across the country," a statement on their behalf read.

The Lithuanian community leader Rabbi Lando, on the other hand, announced the closing of educational institutions, and a statement on his behalf read: “For now, do not open the Torah study halls tomorrow morning. Towards the coming days, a formal announcement will be issued tomorrow morning accordingly to the situation."

The hasidic sects of Vizhnitz and Gur also announced that there would be no studies in the educational institutions of the community.

Due to the tense security situation, the rebbe of Gur even canceled his vacation in the city of Arad near Dimona, and returned to his residence in Jerusalem.
