A rare archaeological discovery on Mount Eival has shed light on the biblical period and proved a hotly contested fact – that the Jewish nation did in fact speak and write Hebrew 3,200 years ago at the time when they entered the land of Israel. The rare finding, a folded lead panel, contains the earliest known Hebrew writing and remarkably the writing coincides with the biblical description of Mt. Eival as the “Mountain of Curses” at which the Levites pronounce curses on those who do not uphold the Torah’s precepts.

Professor Gershon Galil of Haifa University terms the find a “watershed in Biblical research”. Galil says that before the new finding dated to the 13th century BCE, the oldest known Hebrew writing was from the 10th century BCE. “This was an inscription found at Khirbet Queiyafa near the Elah Valley by Prof. Yossi Garfunkel and I succeeded in deciphering it.”

Professor Galil says that the new find is a “death blow to all Bible deniers: Many biblical critics claimed that in the 13th century BCE the Jews did not know how to read and write and therefore could not have written the bible. Therefore they claimed that the bible was written much later in the Persian or Hellenistic periods.

The panel bears an inscription which says: Curse, Curse,Curse, Cursed to G-d, die cursed, Cursed- he will die, Cursed to G-d, Cursed, Cursed, Cursed.” 

Prof. Galil says that this is a sophisticated piece of work: “Whoever knows how to write a text with chiastic structures can write almost anything. At this stage unfortunately we cannot reveal all of the information found since it requires peer review and academic publication but already from what we see today we can say Shehecheyanu on finding Hashem’s name in Hebrew from this period.”

Professor Galil notes the importance of finding these curses on Mt. Eival in accordance with the account in Devarim (Chapter 27) regarding the special ceremony which took place here after the Israelites entered Israel.

Prof. Galil explains that in previous times a legal agreement contained an internal clause which was written on the inner side and when there was a dispute, the sides opened the inner side to see what was written there. This finding also has internal and external text.

In 1980 Prof. Adam Zertal discovered an altar on Mt. Eival and claimed it was that of Yehoshua Bin Nun, based on its unique features and characteristics. Some academics doubted this analysis and thought it was a Canaanite site but the new finding, discovered in earth near the site of the altar, proves that Jews had worshiped here, since the name of Hashem “Yahu” would mean nothing to Canaanites.

The research was led by Dr. Scott Stripling of the Texas-based Associates for Biblical Research which used the successful methods used in sifting the Temple Mount earth to sift the earth near the altar of Yehoshua. Stripling said that he was “amazed” to discover an inscription in Hebrew from the late Bronze Age and Iron Age.

Galil concludes that there is now more and more evidence and findings which support the Biblical account.”

The Litvishe Israeli Yated Ne'eman Disgrace the Memory of the Murdered Harav Moshe Karvitizki

 

The hatred that the Litvaks have towards Chassidim is legendary, but they now hit a new low.

R' Moshe Karvitzki hy"d who was murdered by an Arab savage, was a devoted Chabad Chasid and a shliach, but reading the Yated, you would never know it.

The arab stabbed his body to death, and frum shoimre shabbas are now destroying his soul.

Every single report even the secular media reported that he was a chabad shliach. 

Who was it that said that "litvaks" carry a cross in their hearts?

Biden’s Israel ambassador says he wants Jews out of Jerusalem

 

Biden’s ambassador to Israel recently told participants in a pro-BDS group’s webinar that the real problem with the Palestinian Authority funding terrorism is that “it gives the ‘haters’ an excuse not to support the P.A. based on the argument that it is ‘paying for people who killed Jews.’”

He also told the anti-Israel group, whose CEO has described Israel as an “oppressive regime” and which cheered the Ben & Jerry’s boycott, that “your agenda is where my heart is.”

At this rate, Thomas Nides will be hugging and kissing Hamas leaders by the end of the year.

Expectations for Nides were already pretty low when the Biden administration announced that it had picked Obama’s former deputy secretary of state as its ambassador to Israel.

Hillary Clinton was going to make Nides her chief of staff, but once Hillary in the White House became as likely as peace with Hamas and the PLO, Nides had to settle for being Biden’s bully in Jerusalem while his wife, who is a VP at CNN, stays on in Washington D.C.

Nides’s main qualification for the job had been yelling “You don’t want to f***ing defund UNESCO” at a former Israeli ambassador. He had also vocally opposed efforts to defund UNRWA and stop subsidizing the terror refugee industry. He has also served on the board of the International Rescue Committee, which has repeatedly attacked Israel.

J Street, the anti-Israel pressure group, welcomed Nides’s nomination and announced that it “looked forward to working” with him. Other anti-Israel groups, including the Israel Policy Forum and Americans for Peace Now (APN), echoed the sentiment.

It didn’t take long for Nides to justify their faith in his hostility to the Jewish state.

The Insane Hilarious Remarks by Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson at Senate Hearings

 

Below is a compilation of the many insane remarks made by Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson at her Senate hearings this week.

These comments include: Her inability to define “woman”, claiming that calling President Bush a war criminal was not intended to disparage, refusing to acknowledge there are biological differences between men and women, refusing to say whether a Hispanic can decide that he is really an Asian, refusing to say whether an unborn child can feel pain at 20 weeks during birthing, and refusing to regret sentencing a convicted child pornographer to 3 months in jail.

Further proof that choosing a nominee based on gender and race, rather than merit, does not get the highest caliber.

Mrs. Devorah Chana Phillipson from Monsey Dies Suddenly

 

Mrs. Devorah Chana Phillipson of Monsey was 55.

Devorah Chana a”h, was born in Boro Park to Mr. and Mrs. Menachem Mendel Gottlieb.

Mrs. Phillipson’s husband, Rabbi Binyomin Phillipson, is a renowned philanthropist who leads the Yad Elka Foundation, distributing tens of millions of shekels before each yom tov to thousands of needy families in Israel. Additionally, he is a well-known donor to numerous Torah institutions and various tzedakos throughout the world.

Mrs. Phillipson was his partner in all that he does. Her home was known to be open to all, and she was mekarev countless college students who received their first taste of yiddishkeit in the Phillipson home.

She and her husband would visit the Tosher Rebbe before each Yom Kippur, following his advice to a tee and never allowing their own opinions and preferences to guide them. Emunas chachomim and daas torah were the foundation of their home, which was steeped in torah and gemilas chasadim.

The levaya was held at noon in Spring Valley, with the nifteres now being flown to Eretz Yisroel for kevurah.

Der Yid Satmar Propaganda Paper Misleads It's Readers on The Murderous Iranian Regime

 

Iran is Satmar's favorite country because of its anti-Zionist stance vis à vis the State of Israel. 

The Satmar Rebbe of Monroe begged his followers to write letters to then president Hussain Obama and Congressmen to back the "Iran Deal" They even sent their "lap-dog" Ezra the "capo" Friedlander out to convince Holocaust survivors living in Boro-Park and Williamsburg that the "Iran Deal" was a "great" thing!

The fact that the Iranian Mullas threatened 5.9 million Jews living in Israel, vowing to wipe them off the map, that didn't faze the Satmar Rebbe! 

The latest issue of Der Shturmer, I mean Der Yid, touts the fact that the "Iranian Government sold the tomb of Mordechai & Esther to the Iranian Jews!" 

This is on the very front page on the left side, third article from the top.

This was written to give stupid Der Yid readers the impression that the Mullas love Jews but hate Zionists!

But this byline is an absolute lie!

The Murderous Mullas had nothing to do with this sale, it was sold by the Shah  to the Jews way back in  1968

US Colonel Says Zelensky Is Not A Hero

 

The main media narrative during the Russia and Ukraine war has been that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is a brave hero who did the proper thing for his nation.

The media, and people in general, love a simple dichotomy of good versus evil and no shades of gray, but that is not always the reality, nor how everyone sees it.

Retired U.S. Army Col. Douglas Macgregor had another take on what the Ukrainian president could have done to avoid bloodshed. And while many people in the media are likely to portray his comments as being pro-Russia or pro-Putin all he really did was present his opinion on what could have been done to prevent war.

Be'er Sheva stabber told a judge in 2016 that he wouldn't do it again'

 

The terrorist Mohammad Jalab Abu al-Quian, who on Tuesday murdered four Jews in Be'er Sheva, pleaded guilty in 2016 as part of a plea deal to a variety of security offenses, including the establishment of a terrorist cell on behalf of ISIS.

He was sentenced to four years of imprisonment and another 12 months probation. In sentencing, Judge Yoel Eden noted that "the punishment should be at the lower threshold," because, "the defendant took full responsibility for his actions, admitted to the indictment, expressed remorse for his actions, and said he knew he was wrong and would not do it again."

Al-Quian was an elementary school teacher. In the ruling, it said that the terrorist admitted that he "took part in secret meetings and served as a 'spiritual teacher' who conveyed content related to the ISIS organization."

"In these meetings he explained to his students about ISIS and his views, told them about the organization's path and the fighting in Syria, and showed the students videos of the organization, and as a result of the defendant's actions, the students expressed support for ISIS," it read. He took part in meetings of ISIS supporters in Israel at least once a week, for a period of about two years - until he was arrested.

According to the indictment, "As of January 2015, the defendant began delivering sermons in the mosque during Friday prayers. In some sermons, he spoke about ISIS and claimed that the organization was in accordance with Islam, with the intention that worshipers would show support for the organization."

"According to the indictment, the facts of which the defendant admitted, he conspired to join a terrorist organization, attended illegal association meetings, tried to leave Israel illegally for Syria, delivered sermons intended to induce worshipers to show support for the organization, and acted on behalf of an illegal association and as its representative," the judge noted in the sentence.

He stressed: "The defendant's actions were carried out over a long period of time, and in a consistent and continuous manner, indicating a significant threat to the State of Israel."

However, at the sentencing stage, the judge wrote: "I did not find that in the case of the defendant, the appropriate sentence should be exceeded, neither in terms of severity nor severity. The defendant is a professional, and respected in his community."

As stated, the terrorist was sentenced to four years in prison, which began from the beginning of his detention period on June 2, 2015. He was released from Israeli prison at the end of his prison term and on Tuesday carried out a brutal killing spree in Be'er Sheva.

Doris Yakhbas, 49, Laura Yitzhak, 43, and Menachem Yehezkel, 67, were three of the four people murdered in a ramming-stabbing attack in Be'er Sheva.

 

The name of one of the four women murdered in a stabbing attack in Be'er Sheva was released Tuesday evening.

Doris Yakhbas, 49 years old and a resident of Moshav Gilat, was the first victim to be named following the attack.

Her husband, who works with the Israel Prisons Service, arrived at the scene of the attack after receiving a phone call from a passerby, and discovered that his wife was among those murdered..

Her nephew, Yisrael Uzan, who was called to the scene as Magen David Adom (MDA) personnel, was one of those treating her.

"I was one of the first to arrive at the scene, and I approached to treat a injured woman who was unconscious," he said. "While treating her, I recognized her as my aunt, my mother's sister. She had no signs of life and we were forced to declare her death. I was horrified, but I needed to continue functioning and to treat my uncle, who was at the scene."

The Merhavim Regional Council said, "The Merhavim community is pained at the murder of Doris Yakhbas (49), of blessed memory, of Moshav Gilat. Doris is survived by her parents, brothers and sisters, husband, and three children. Staff from the Council is supporting the family and community at this difficult time. We extend our hand to the family, which has suffered a cruel and monstrous loss."

Yakhbas is survived by her husband and three children. Her funeral will be held Wednesday at the cemetery in her moshav.

In the attack, terrorist Mohammad Jalab Abu al-Quian rammed into Rabbi Kravitzky, who was riding his bicycle, before stabbing several female passersby.

Rabbi Moshe Kravitzky ran the synagogue in Be'er Sheva's Nahal Beka neighborhood, in addition to managing the neighborhood's Colel Chabad soup kitchen, which feeds many elderly and poor people every day.Be'er Sheva's chief Chabad-Lubavitch emissary, Rabbi Shneur Zalman Garelik, who worked with Rabbi Kravitzky, mourned, "He was very dedicated to his mission. Together with his family members, may they live long and good years, he put everything he could into the community in the Nahal Beka neighborhood. He took care of them, physically and spiritually."

"All of the residents remember his wide smile and great giving. We are in shock and very pained at this bitter news."

Rabbi Shalom Duchman, Director of Colel Chabad, responded to the murder by saying, "Rav Moshe Kravitzki was the gentlest of souls whose entire life was about caring for others."

"Each and every day he would manage Colel Chabad's local food distribution service for the needy in Be'er Sheva, distributing thousands of meals over the years, going above and beyond to serve the hardest-hit in his community during COVID

"This horrific loss of life has robbed the people of Israel of one of its kindest and most compassionate souls and our prayer is that the memory of the tremendous work that Rav Moshe did in his life will offer some comfort to his family and the entire community."

Be'er Sheva terrorist's family knew of planned attack

 

Israeli security forces investigating Tuesday’s deadly terrorist attack in Be’er Sheva questioned the assailant's relatives, amid suspicions that at least some of the family members had foreknowledge of the planned attack.

Police and the Shin Bet internal security agency probing the attack questioned Mohammad Jalab Abu al-Quian’s relatives, with police interrogating two of al-Quian’s brothers Wednesday morning.

The two brothers are suspected of know about Mohammad Jalab’s plans to carry out a terrorist attack, and may have witnessed him leaving the house with the knife he used in the attack.

Once the interrogation has been completed, authorities will determine whether the two brothers should be brought before a judge for an extension of their arrest.

On Wednesday, police returned the personal firearms of two civilians who shot and killed the terrorist, ending the eight-minute rampage Tuesday.

Police forensics teams examined the two guns at a ballistics analysis facility overnight. The police department came under criticism Tuesday, after footage was released showing officers threatening one of the two civilians who requested his gun back following questioning.

Officials at Soroka Medical Center in Be’er Sheva announced Wednesday morning that two of the victims wounded in Tuesday’s attack are in moderate and stable condition.

Four people were murdered in the attack Tuesday afternoon, with the terrorist running down a cyclist with his car before exiting the vehicle to stab additional victims.

The attack occurred at a gas station on Derech Hevron in Be’er Sheva, adjacent to a ‘BIG’ shopping center.

The terrorist, an Arab Israeli from the Bedouin sector, was a resident of Hura in the Negev, who had previously expressed support for the ISIS terrorist group.

According to Maariv, the terrorist had attempted to join ISIS in Syria and was recently released from a five-year prison term.

Before you donate to "Bleich" the "Ukraine Chief Rabbi" Read this

 

From https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1505707065267867658.html

First: who is Bleich, and how did he get to Ukraine? 

Bleich comes from a "centrist" yeshivish family in the NY area. After an incident that damaged his reputation in the Telz high school in Chicago, Bleich began learning in a Stolin (chassidish) yeshiva in Israel.

According to this @nytimes article, Bleich came to Ukraine in 1989, at age 25, with the backing of Stolin. He managed to get the pulpit of the historic Great Choral Synagogue and established day schools, camps and other religious programs.

https://www.nytimes.com/1995/01/06/world/kiev-journal-out-of-ukraine-s-torment-a-jewish-flowering.html

3/29

In 1992, Bleich was "appointed" chief rabbi of Ukraine. He was never officially elected. But that didn't seem to matter. Within a few years, he had connections to the most powerful people in Ukraine, including the famously corrupt President Leonid Kuchma (Wikipedia him).

4/29

Bleich also gained prominence in the larger Jewish world. Until 2018, he was the official representative of the Stoliner Rebbe of Jerusalem. Later, he became VP of World Jewish Congress and member of the executive committee of the Conference of European Rabbis (CER).

5/29

One of the things Bleich did as chief rabbi was establish an outreach-oriented high school for Ukrainian Jewish girls and boys. Many of these children had little Jewish affiliation, and some lived in a dorm near Bleich's home--both of which put them in a vulnerable position.
6/29

Over the course of several years, Bleich is alleged to have sexually abused girls from this school, others who attended his summer camp, employees of his programs, and Orthodox female volunteers from North America who came to work in the summer camp.

Open Letter to Zelensky "the Ukrainian"

Zelensky Davening for his country in a Church

From a Facebook Post!

Dear Vlodomor Zelenskyy,

So let's clear a few things up...

You're the underdog here and Israel usually aligns itself with the underdog because the truth is that in every war we've fought, we were the underdog because we were out-numbered, isolated, and countries like yours chose to align themselves with our enemies. In your case, more than 35 times in recent years.

Let's be clear, Israel doesn't owe Ukraine ANYTHING. It is our choice to send what aid we feel is appropriate, and we have. Vast amounts of humanitarian aid, medical assistance, bullet proof ambulances and more. You're welcome.

Your comparison of the Holocaust to today's fight is abhorrent and historically inaccurate. The Jews didn't have an army, anti-aircraft missiles, 100,000 rifles to distribute to our people and no military training.

No one sent aid and rescue missions and let's not even begin to describe how the majority of the Ukrainians treated our people.

You feel that we owe you because you are Jewish...your parents are Jewish.

I guess we won't mention that your children are not only not-Jewish, but have, with your permission, been baptized.

So let's do this. You stop complaining that Israel isn't doing enough, start saying thank you and next time a vote comes up in the UN, remember how many Arab countries stood by, while Israel acted.

And if you want Israel to CONTINUE to support Ukraine, don't you dare compare your situation, where tragically over 900 have died, to the massacre of more than six million Jews in World War II, to the victims who lie in mass graves, like Babi Yar.

We'll help...not because you are a Jew, but because WE are Jews.

AIPAC’s pro-democracy ‘super PAC’ does not mention Israel in its mission statement

 

AIPAC’s new regular political action committee is self-evident about what it’s all about: It’s called AIPAC PAC, after all, and is committed to supporting pro-Israel candidates.

The “super PAC” that the American Israel Public Affairs Committee launched in December, however, is more opaque: It’s called the United Democracy Project. Its brief mission statement does not mention Israel nor the powerhouse pro-Israel lobby behind its founding. Instead, it emphasizes the promotion of democracy.

“United Democracy Project is an organization comprised of American citizens, Democrats and Republicans, united in the belief that we are stronger as a nation when we come together in support of our democracy and other democracies around the world,” says the mission statement on its website. “United Democracy Project works to elect candidates that share our vision of Americans coming together to support our mutual interests and belief in democracy.”

Asked why the super PAC does not state that it supports Israel, AIPAC spokesman Marshall Wittmann did not directly answer.

“As we indicated at the time of the announcement of the PAC and Super-PAC, the creation of the PACs is an opportunity to significantly deepen and strengthen the involvement of the pro-Israel community in politics,” Wittmann said Monday in response to an email query.

Chasan seriously injured during his wedding regains consciousness

 

A groom who was seriously injured at his wedding last month in Modi’in regained consciousness Monday.

In mid-February, 34-year-old Itai Haim Hamani slipped and fell off of a table, after friends and relatives lifted him up onto the table, then lifted the table into the air while dancing at his wedding.

Hamani landed on his head and suffered a serious head injury in the fall, leaving him unconscious. He was rushed to Sheba Medical Center in Ramat Gan for treatment.

Now, more than a month after his injury, Hamani has regained consciousness, waking up for the first time since the wedding disaster.

Despite regaining consciousness, Hamani is still in serious condition, Kikar Hashabbat reported.

“It is an absolute miracle,” one relative said. “His medical condition is improving in a way that defies nature, he is smiling and moving his hands. We showed him photos of his bride and he was happy, the doctors and the family are still in shock from the miracle.”

“His condition is still serious and he has a long, complicated road to recovery. I call on everyone to continue to pray for his recovery.”

Historian Discovers Hitherto Unknown Fate Of 400 Amsterdam Jews Caught In February 1941 Raid

 

A new exhibition by Dutch historian Wally De Lang has revealed the fate of 400 Jews who disappeared 80 years ago from Amsterdam – a fate which was not known until now.

In February 1941, nine months after the Nazis invaded and occupied the Netherlands, the first pogroms began on Dutch soil. Local Nazi party members posted bills in shop and cafe windows that read “Jews Not Wanted.” Then they went on a rampage in the Jewish Quarter, breaking windows and shouting jeers.

Young Jewish men and boys banded together to protect their neighborhood. When Dutch Nazis returned a few days later, the Jews fought back. Street fights went on for days resulting in many casualties, including the death of one Dutch Nazi, Hendrik Koot.

In retaliation, the Green Police — German Nazi officers in long green coats and high boots — randomly grabbed about 400 Jewish men off the streets during a two-day sweep, ultimately forcing them into trucks and driving away. Most of these men were never heard from again and nobody knew what had happened to them or even precisely how many people had disappeared.

De Lang, a researcher of Dutch Jewish history for several decades, refused to accept that normative people from Amsterdam had just disappeared without a trace and set out to discover their stories.

“It was impossible for me to comprehend that 400 people of this town just disappeared, without anyone knowing who they were,”  De Lang told the New York Times.
