Hysterical!!! Biden Tells Slabodka Rosh Yeshiva He, Too, Favors Banning Jewish Prayer on Har Habyis

by David Israel

 Rabbi Dov Lando, 94, the Rosh Yeshiva of the Slabodka yeshiva in Bnei Brak, was informed on Monday that President Joe Biden, 81, supports his view that Jews should not be allowed on the Temple Mount.

The Temple Mount, has been the holiest site for Jews since its construction by King Solomon in 957 BCE.

On August 27, the Haredi daily Yated Ne’eman,a Loshon Hara Paper, affiliated with Rabbi Lando who is considered the leader of the Lithuanian Haredim, ran a furious front-page ad in Arabic and Hebrew, restating the notorious lie that “all the rulers of Jewish law over the generations forbade severely the ascent of Jews to the Temple Mount (called by the Muslims the Al Aqsa Plaza), and that view has not changed and it continues to hold.”

The statement is very misleading, seeing that many Gedoilim  allowed Jewish ascent to the Temple Mount 

The Yated Ne’eman ad (Otzma Yehudit Scores Win in Battle with Enraged UTJ & Leftists over Temple Mount) was a virulent attack on National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir, who was channeling Rabbi Goren earlier that week when he told Army Radio he was looking into establishing a synagogue on the Temple Mount. Wouldn’t that be nice? Let there be a synagogue for Jews and a mosque for Muslims in the spirit of religious freedom.

Not in Slabodka, and, apparently, not in Washington DC, either. And so, on Monday, the United States ambassador to Israel, Jack Lew, paid a secret visit to the home of Rabbi Dov Lando in Bnei Brak. It was so secret, that Ynet reported it almost in real-time.

During the meeting, the ambassador delivered to Rabbi Lando a personal message from President Biden, thanking him for his efforts to calm the spirits and prevent security unrest throughout the Middle East through his furious objection to Jewish ascent to the Temple Mount.

The Yated Ne’eman ad said Ben Gvir was a “political pyromaniac” who wished to set the entire region on fire. And folks know the only ones allowed to set stuff on fire are Haredi youths objecting to the IDF draft.

Secretary of State Antony Blinken didn’t call Ben Gvir a pyromaniac, but did issue this statement on the harrowing week when the National Security Minister set the Middle East on fire:

“The United States strongly opposes Israeli Minister of National Security Itamar Ben Gvir’s visit to the Haram al-Sharif/Temple Mount on August 13, which demonstrated blatant disregard for the historic status quo with respect to the holy sites in Jerusalem.  These provocative actions only exacerbate tensions at a pivotal moment when all focus should be on the ongoing diplomatic efforts to achieve a ceasefire agreement and secure the release of all hostages and create the conditions for broader regional stability.”

We checked, and it turns out the State dept. has a thing called the Office of International Religious Freedom, which “promotes universal respect for freedom of religion or belief for all as a core objective of US foreign policy. We monitor religiously motivated abuses, harassment, and discrimination worldwide, and recommend, develop, and implement policies and programs to address these concerns.”

Their website even features this video of Secretary of State Antony Blinken delivering remarks at a reception to celebrate Eid Al-Fitr at Blair House.

Neturei Karta terrorist Arrested After Attack On Monsey Service Station

33-year-old Benzion Rivlin, a member of Neturei Karta, was charged with criminal mischief as a hate crime and trespassing, after attacking the Monsey Service Station over its support for Israel, MONSEY SCOOP REPORTED.

Rivlin attempted to damage an American/Israeli flag at the service station early Tuesday morning using spray paint, but was caught by Ramapo police officers moments later. Sources tell Monsey Scoop that a Ramapo Police officer saw Rivlin in the act, and arrested him following a brief pursuit.

This is not the first such incident at Monsey Service Station, as the business has faced vandalism, flag theft, and protests since the owner’s daughter began displaying an Israeli flag earlier this year.

“Between the stealing of the flags and the spray-painting on the sidewalks… the chanting and protesting outside and the dead fish thrown in front of our building, I couldn’t even tell you how many times we’ve been going through this,” the business told News12.

While police cannot confirm if Rivlin is connected to previous incidents, he was arrested in March on a different hate crime-related charge. Rivlin is due in court on September 19 for the latest charges.

Hostages Fought Off Hamas Killers In Final Moments

 

Israeli-American Hersh Goldberg-Polin, along with five other hostages, reportedly fought to defend themselves in the moments before they were executed by Hamas terrorists in a Gaza tunnel, according to new details from the IDF investigation.

The families of the six hostages were briefed over the weekend by IDF spokesman Daniel Hagari, who shared that several of the victims tried to resist their attackers before being shot. The bodies of Goldberg-Polin, 23, and the other hostages—Eden Yerushalmi, 24, Ori Danino, 25, Alex Lobanov, 32, Carmel Gat, 40, and Almog Sarusi, 27—were discovered on August 31 in a tunnel beneath Rafah in southern Gaza. Evidence suggested that Goldberg-Polin, Danino, Lobanov, and Sarusi defended Yerushalmi and Gat before they were killed.

The tunnel conditions were described as dire, with no air vents, toilets, or showers, and too low for the hostages to stand. Items including protein bars, a flashlight, and a chess set were found at the scene, along with notepads that have been given to the families.

Autopsies revealed that all six hostages were killed by short-range gunshots, likely the day before their bodies were discovered during an IDF raid. Hamas has since taunted the families by releasing pre-recorded videos of the hostages, including a message from Goldberg-Polin where he told his family, “I love you, I miss you… keep on fighting.”

In a somber security cabinet meeting on Sunday, the IDF presented harrowing footage from the tunnel. The video, recorded by IDF forces, revealed the inhumane conditions in which the hostages were held.

Cabinet members were reportedly shocked and horrified by the footage, describing it as “extremely tough to watch.” The IDF plans to show the video to the victims’ families before deciding whether to release it to the public.

At a Knesset committee meeting on Monday, Esther Buchshtab, whose son Yagev was also murdered in captivity by Hamas, confirmed that her son was executed. She criticized government policy, saying that military pressure leads to the killing of hostages, rather than their rescue.

Mossad chief Dedi Barnea briefed the cabinet on ongoing negotiations for a deal, indicating that talks are still underway, with an American mediation proposal expected, but not guaranteed.

Candace "Ovens" Suspended and Demonetized by YouTube Over Antisemitic Remarks

 

Candace Ovens has been suspended from YouTube for one week following a series of inflammatory and antisemitic comments targeting the Jewish community. Ovens, who has a history of controversial remarks, faced the platform’s decision after a video featuring an interview with rapper Kanye West, widely criticized for its antisemitic content, was removed from YouTube.

Along with the suspension, Ovens’ channel has been fully demonetized, meaning she will no longer be able to profit from her content on the platform. This action follows growing concern over her incendiary rhetoric, which has sparked outrage from many viewers and advocacy groups.

One of the most shocking elements of Ovens’ recent behavior includes her defense of Nazi doctor Josef Mengele, infamous for his cruel medical experiments on Jewish children during the Holocaust. Ovens reportedly dismissed the documented atrocities committed by Mengele, claiming that his actions were exaggerated and part of “bizarre propaganda.” Such remarks have intensified backlash against her, with many accusing Ovens of promoting Holocaust denial and antisemitism.

This is not the first time Ovens has faced criticism for her controversial views. She has often positioned herself as a provocateur, but her latest comments appear to have crossed a line for many. Advocacy organizations, including those focused on combating hate speech, have lauded YouTube’s decision to suspend and demonetize her channel.

The suspension is seen as part of a broader effort by major social media platforms to address harmful content, particularly that which spreads hate or disinformation. Many have called for stricter measures to be implemented against individuals who use their platforms to incite division and spread harmful ideologies.

This suspension may signal a turning point for Ovens, whose rhetoric is increasingly being rejected by both viewers and platforms alike. However, it remains to be seen whether this will curb her presence on social media, where she continues to hold a substantial following.

The USA is Being Run By a Movement Not By a President!

 Joe Biden has gone from a vacation at a billionaire’s estate in California to a postponed appearance at the DNC convention in Chicago, and then once more to a vacation in Delaware.

The man who formally serves as president of the country barely has anything resembling a public schedule. And his private one appears to be equally empty. Biden is satisfied with occasionally showing up at a few events a week, mumbling something and then moving on.

Meanwhile his VP is on the campaign trail and appears equally out of reach, only now finally agreeing to a single CNN interview with Gov. Tim Walz, her running mate, there to back her up. If Kamala Harris can’t handle a press conference, can she handle running a country?

And if neither POTUS nor the VP are running the country, who or what actually is in charge?

Sarah Friedland wins Venice prize – then viciously attacks Israel

Her remarks are, of course, disgusting. But what’s so scary is the heavy applause and approval coming from the audience. Look at these well-dressed, sophisticated, educated people applauding the condemnation of Jews. These are not the stupid naïve protesters on our campuses and streets. 

 The 81st Venice International Film Festival witnessed Sarah Friedland's "Familiar Touch" win awards for Best Director, Best First Film, and Best Actress. During her acceptance speech for the Luigi de Laurentiis Prize, Friedland, the self-hating Jew, took the opportunity to make a political statement and voiced her support for Palestinians.

 During her acceptance speech, she said, "As a Jewish American artist working in a time-based medium, I must note, I'm accepting this award on the 336th day of Israel's genocide in Gaza and 76th year of occupation. I believe it is our responsibility as filmmakers to use the institutional platforms through which we work to redress Israel's impunity on the global stage. I stand in solidarity with the people of Palestine and their struggle for liberation."

International Human Rights Lawyer and CEO of the International Human Rights Forum, Arsen Ostrovsky, called her a "self-hating Jew" who "spout lies against Israel and essentially called for genocide of the Jewish state."

In Stunning Report: Kamala Harris’s Aides Are Unsure of Her Policy Positions

 

Not even campaign aides are sure of what Vice President Kamala Harris’s policy positions are, Axios reported Friday, fueling concerns that Harris is an empty political shell with intentions to do or say whatever is needed to get elected.

With only 60 days left until the presidential election, time is running out for Americans to learn about Harris’s ambiguous plans. She has only sat for one pre-recorded interview since joining the race seven weeks ago on July 21, 2024.

In those seven weeks, Harris allegedly changed her view, outright flip-flopped, or has an unknown position in nine areas:

1. Banning plastic straws (Flip-flopped)

2. A mandate for only producing electric and hydrogen vehicles by 2035 (Unknown)

3. Banning fracking (Flip-flopped)

4. Gun confiscation through a buyback program (Allegedly no longer supports via anonymous campaign spokesperson)

5. Decriminalizing illegally crossing the southern border (Allegedly no longer supports via anonymous campaign spokesperson)

6. Reparations (Unknown)

7. Building a border wall (Allegedly no longer supports via anonymous campaign spokesperson)

8. A federal jobs guarantee (Allegedly no longer supports via anonymous campaign spokesperson)

9. Medicare for All (Flip-flopped)

“Harris and her campaign haven’t provided many details explaining her policy shifts,” Axios admitted Friday. “Even some of her own staffers aren’t sure where she stands on a range of issues.”

Axios reportedly asked the Harris campaign six days in a row about her unknown policy positions before getting a “no comment” from aides.

Harris’s treatment of the media underscores her conundrum: Harris cannot powerfully campaign on policies to fix crime, inflation, and border security without undermining the Biden-Harris administration’s policies, but she must tout the administration’s policies to validate her record and candidacy.

CNN’s Dana Bash exposed Harris’s conundrum during her first pre-taped interview.

Harris owned the Biden-Harris administration’s economic record while she simultaneously blamed Republican presidential nominee former President Donald Trump for it. The contradiction was stark, producing an outcome that forced Harris to tout her administration’s policies to validate her candidacy all while she undermined her record and her candidacy.

Top DOJ Spokesman Admits that Trump Cases Are a ‘Perversion of Justice’ on Hidden Camera

 

The chief spokesman for the U.S. Department of Justice’s (DOJ) Southern District of New York (SDNY) was caught tearing into Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg and other prosecutors for carrying out a “perversion of justice” in targeting former President Donald Trump, hidden camera footage captured by an undercover journalist revealed.

Nicholas Biase, the public affairs director for the U.S. Attorney’s Office of the Southern District of New York (SDNY), spilled his feelings about the liberal DA when speaking to an unidentified operative with podcaster Steven Crowder’s “Mug Club” on multiple occasions.

In one July 31 clip from what appears to be a bar, Biase said, “To be honest with you, I think the case is nonsense,” after Trump was convicted of 34 felonies for allegedly falsifying business records.

'The Authorities won't protect Jews'| Betar issues 'travel warning' for New York City

 The Betar Organization has issued a warning for Jewish tourists not to travel to New York City due to mounting antisemitism in and around the city.

Betar, a 100-year-old international organization founded by Zeev Jabotinsky which has recently been reformed in the United States, wrote in its warning: "Due to rising violence and support for terrorism in NYC, Jewish visitors and tourists are urged not to come to NYC. It is not safe. Authorities will not protect Jews. Don't come to NYC until they remove the handcuffs from the NYPD and arrest and prosecute criminals."

“We issue this travel warning in pain as we say one of the largest cities in the world for Jews simply isn’t safe today. We urge Jews worldwide to avoid the area of NYC unless absolutely necessary as Jews are being targeted. If you wear visibly Jewish garb you are in danger as the NYPD has employed a hands-off policy for arresting Jew-haters. Worse, the DA doesn’t prosecute Jew-haters," a spokesman for Betar USA said.

"NYC clearly doesn’t care about safety and there are safer cities for Jews to visit than NYC. We will continue to train those Jews in NYC in self-defense but there’s no reason for tourists to put themselves in danger,” he added.

Michael Sinensky, interim executive director of Betar, USA said: “We issue a travel warning to NYC today in pain as we say one of the largest cities in the world for Jews simply isn’t safe today. We urge Jews worldwide to avoid the area of NYC unless absolutely necessary as Jews are being targeted and the NYPD has employed a hands-off policy for arresting Jewish haters. They aren’t prosecuted."

He noted: "I’m a lifelong New Yorker who was recently forced out as my wife was violently assaulted. NYC clearly doesn’t care about safety and Jews must speak up to ensure our communal safety. Simply crime isn’t prosecuted and quality of life continues to deteriorate. We urge Jewish tourists to avoid NYC.”

Antisemitic incidents have increased in New York City since the Hamas massacre of October 7, 2023. The NYPD stated that an overall rise in hate crimes in 2024 has been fueled by antisemitic attacks. In every month since October 7, the tally of anti-Jewish incidents has been higher year over year. Jews remain the group most targeted in hate crimes nearly every month.

An August report by Tom DiNapoli, the New York State comptroller, found that antisemitic incidents made up 44% of all hate crimes in the state last year, and 88% of those motivated by religious bias.

Tucker Carlson’s Embrace of Holocaust Revisionism and Hitler Apologia Is a Dangerous Assault on Historical Truth

 

If you find yourself defending Adolf Hitler and demonizing Winston Churchill, you should seriously reconsider the path that led you there, so said distinguished journalist Bari Weiss in a hard-hitting piece that appeared on Thursday on The Free Press website. 

Yet this is precisely the intellectual abyss that Tucker Carlson and his guest, pseudo-historian Darryl Cooper, plummeted into during a recent episode of Carlson’s podcast. Weiss writes that what unfolded wasn’t a reasoned debate, a challenge to controversial ideas, or even an exploration of lesser-known historical perspectives. Instead, it was a chilling display of Holocaust revisionism and pro-Nazi rhetoric that dishonors the memory of millions and insults the very fabric of historical truth.

Nate Silver Forecast Has Chance of Trump Winning at 61.5%, Harris at 38.3%

 

Statistician Nate Silver on Friday released his latest 2024 presidential election forecast, which shows former President Donald Trump at 61.5 percent and Vice President Kamala Harris at 38.3 percent.

The rise in Trump’s chances of 15.4 percent is a flip from Silver’s forecast on August 23, when Harris’s chances of winning were at 53.5 percent and Trump’s at 46.1 percent. Those numbers came right after the Democratic National Convention, when the vice president was still enjoying a mainstream media honeymoon.

A few weeks have passed since then, and Harris has not held a single press conference, opting for one sit-down interview with running mate Gov. Tim Walz (D-MN) on the Democrat-friendly network CNN.

Alan Dershowitz Leaves Democratic Party, Citing ‘Anti-Zionist’ DNC

 

Attorney Alan Dershowitz says he is leaving the Democratic Party after being “disgusted” by the recent Democratic National Convention, which he described as “anti-Zionist.”

During a recent radio interview with Zev Brenner, Dershowitz criticized the convention for giving legitimacy to anti-Israel speakers and anti-Israel protesters outside the convention in Chicago last month. 

“It was the most anti-Jewish, anti-Israel, anti-Zionist convention I’ve experienced,” he said. “I was disgusted at the Democratic National Convention. Absolutely disgusted.”

“I am no longer a Democrat. I am an Independent,” he said, though he wouldn’t say who he plans to vote for in the November matchup between Republican Donald Trump and Democrat Kamala Harris. He said he might not reveal who he plans to vote for until after November 1.

“I want to see how they deal with Iran. I want to encourage the current administration to support Israel,” he said.

Dershowitz, who previously faced criticism from his own party for defending Trump during his first impeachment trial, explained that “a lot of things” contributed to his decision to leave the party over time, including Harris not attending when Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu spoke before a joint session of Congress

Ahead of that address, more than 50 members of Congress said they would boycott or skip the address due to scheduling conflicts, including Senator Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), Senator Elizabeth Warren (Mass.) and Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (N.Y.) Former House speaker Nancy Pelosi was one of several members of Congress who chose to meet with Israeli citizens “whose families have suffered in the wake of the October 7th Hamas terror attack and kidnappings,” rather than attend the address. Pelosi told Politico Netanyahu’s invitation to speak before Congress was “inappropriate.”

But it was the behavior of several public figures — Ocasio-Cortez, Warren, Sanders, and Rev. Al Sharpton — during the Democratic convention in Chicago last month that sealed the deal on his decision.

“They had more anti-Jewish, anti-Zionist people who were speaking, starting with [Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez] – a miserable, anti-Zionist bigot,” Dershowitz said. “Then of course they had [Sen. Elizabeth] Warren, who is one of the most anti-Jewish people in the Senate. Then they had Bernie Sanders, one of the most anti-Jewish people in the Senate.

“By giving them platforms, what it says is that when AOC does call Israel a genocidal country and rails against it, she now has the imprimatur of the Democratic Party,” he said.

That, in combination with pro-Palestinian protesters outside the convention calling for the destruction of Israel, led him to believe “that’s not my party,” he said.

Facebook Oversight Board members blast Israel over Gaza: ‘Most criminal army in history’

Multiple members of Facebook parent Meta’s Oversight Board have exhibited a clear anti-Israel bias since the war with Hamas began last Oct. 7 – with one even referring to Israel as a “terrorist government” and “the most criminal army in history.”

At least four members of the 21-person advisory group – which sparked outrage Wednesday by determining the anti-Israel phrase “from the river to the sea, Palestine will be free” doesn’t constitute hate speech – have published views critical of the Jewish state.

One of the most vocal has been Tawakkol Karman, a Nobel Peace Prize Laureate who has referred to the deaths of civilians in Gaza as an “ethnic cleansing” and a “war of extermination.”

In a June 7 post on X, Karman celebrated the United Nations’ move to place Israel’s military on a global list of entities that have committed harm against children – known as its “list of shame.” Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad were also added.

“The United Nations puts Israel, its terrorist government, and its most criminal army in history on the list of shame. I applaud this decision, which was long overdue,” Karman wrote, according to a Google translation.
