Hatred For Torah Has No Place Here

5 Marcheshvan 5785

The 18th of Marcheshvan (Nov. 5, 1990) is the yahrtzeit of Rabbi Meir David Kahane, ztz"l, Hy"d.  Today, a day following the Gregorian date, the Jerusalem Post has published a typically scathing op-ed taking Rabbi Kahane's name in vain.  The hatred still expressed with such venom 34 years after his assassination is testimony to the real reason behind it - the threat posed by Torah Judaism to the Greek ideas of democracy.


The 25th Knesset and the 37th government of the State of Israel have presented us with a series of unprecedented events, decisions, and phenomena that pose a significant threat to Israeli democracy and the future of Israeli society.

The most severe of these is the entry of Kahanism into the mainstream of Israeli politics and the legitimacy this ideology is gaining among large segments in politics, even in unexpected places. For example, with a young secular woman from Tel Aviv.

Last week, Social Equality and Women’s Advancement Minister May Golan – a member of Likud, once the party that led the boycott against Meir Kahane in the Knesset – delivered one of the most embarrassing displays seen in the plenum, as she shouted and waved her arms seeking to defend the tarnished honor of Michael Ben-Ari, a declared Kahane supporter disqualified from running for the Knesset.


...What is required of us today is no longer a “battle of containment” but a concerted effort to push this dangerous phenomenon from the center of Israeli existence to the extreme and illegitimate margins to which it belongs.

The writer is a Labor Party MK.
The hysterical fear and loathing for Torah is on full display in this diatribe.  Like the Arabs with their 22 other countries, this scared little rabbit can choose from many democratic countries to live in with democratic ideals.  Israel is supposed to be the one and only JEWISH country where we can have JEWISH government and JEWISH life.  If it's not Torah-based and Torah-centered, it ain't JEWISH at all.  

When it comes right down to it, Jew-hatred is really hatred for the Torah and for HKB"H Himself.  It's bad enough that we have to put up with it from the world.  Why should we continue to contend with it from within our own ranks?

It's high time, and even well past it, "to push this dangerous phenomenon" of Torah-hatred completely out of Israeli existence.

"Loss of Nationality"

5 Marcheshvan 5785

One of the happiest days of my life when I cut all ties to "wicked Rome".

Interesting how they consider it a "loss".  Their loss was my gain.

"Renouncing American citizenship used to be free, and not much talked about, until 2010 – the year when the new regulation known as the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA) was signed into law. That year the fee for renouncing was set at $450. In 2014, this was hiked by 422 percent, to $2,350."

"The Heart of a King is in the Hands of Hashem"

2 Marcheshvan 5785 



It all depends on our relationship with HKB"H.  If we've done proper teshuvah and earned HKB"H's blessing, the 'king's' heart will be turned to do good by us.  On the other hand, "...and if they don't repent?  HKB"H will send a king like Haman."  The name of the 'king' does not matter - Trump, Biden, Harris...  "The heart of the king is in the hands of Hashem."  

The Paro of Yosef Hatzadik's time had great respect for the Jews "and then arose a Paro who did not know Yosef."  The commentaries say it is not clear whether this was a new Paro or the same Paro with a new attitude.

FEAR ONLY HASHEM

30 Tishrei 5785
Erev Shabbat Kodesh - Rosh Chodesh Alef
Parashat Noach

"Now the earth had become corrupt before God; and the earth had become filled with robbery. And God saw the earth and behold it was corrupted, for all flesh had corrupted its way upon the earth." (Bereishit 6.11-12)

We are there again and not only that, the nearly 8 billion people in this world are ready to kill each other off.  More importantly, the nations of the world fervently desire to rid this world of its Jews, for whom the world exists. Only a very, very small minority of this world's inhabitants care about ratzon Hashem and giving Him the honor due Him as Creator, King and Father.

We, the faithful of Hashem, may be few in number, but we have a glorious future ahead of us...

...For your Master is your Maker - Hashem, Master of Legions is His Name; your Redeemer is the Holy One of Israel - God of all the world shall He be called. ....For but a brief moment have I forsaken you, and with abundant mercy shall I gather you in. With a slight wrath have I concealed My countenance from you for a moment, but with eternal kindness shall I show you mercy, said your Redeemer, Hashem.

For like the waters of Noah shall this be to Me: As I have sworn never again to pass the waters of Noah over the earth, so have I sworn not to be wrathful with you or rebuke you.  For My kindness shall not be removed from you and My covenant of peace shall not falter, says the One Who shows mercy, Hashem. (Haftarah, Parashat Noach)

Ayn Od Milevado!

"My children, do not fear. All that I have done, I have done only for your sake.   Why are you afraid?  The time for your redemption has come.  And there is no need to fear."

All of Our Enemies Have United Against Us

29 Tishrei 5785
Erev Rosh Chodesh

https://www.abrahamicfamilyhouse.ae/

After realizing the impossibility of killing us all outright, although the Amalekites haven't given that up, Eisav, Yishmael and the Erev Rav have created a plan for mass assimilation, and literally everything going on right now is a part of that plan.  It's important that all true Jews to understand that this is the battle - to remain separate - not to assimilate in any way, shape or form and to cling fast to our Holy Torah.  

With regard to the Land of Israel, whether it purports to be a "Two-State Solution" or a "One-State Solution," it all leads to an anti-Torah outcome which seeks to thwart the will of HKB"H and the destiny of Klal Yisrael.  Any persons or organizations which seek to unite Jews with gentiles towards the realization of any such goal must be considered an existential threat to the Klal and assur to all Jews.  

Be well warned:  A "Democratic" State cannot be a "Jewish" State no matter what people claim!  (And why is it always called a "State" anyway and not a country like all others?) 

Also be advised that "The Bible" is not the Torah or even Tanakh.  "The Bible" includes the Greek (New) Testament.  This is another example of a forbidden mixture that true Jews cannot accept.  

This impure "mixture" has been the goal of Chr*stianity since its beginnings...


Quoting from The Return:
2000 years ago the Holy Spirit was poured out upon 120 Jews in Jerusalem during the Feast of Shavuot (Pentecost). The Body of Messiah was born in a blaze of Holy Fire!

That Jewish revival spread from Jerusalem, ultimately consuming both Jew and Gentile culminating with these historic words of a Jewish Rabbi, the Apostle Paul:

Therefore remember that at one time you Gentiles in the flesh, called “the uncircumcision” by what is called the circumcision, which is made in the flesh by hands— remember that you were at that time separated from Christ, alienated from the commonwealth of Israel and strangers to the covenants of promise, having no hope and without God in the world. But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far off have been brought near by the blood of Christ.

For he himself is our peace, who has made us both one and has broken down in his flesh the dividing wall of hostility by abolishing the law of commandments expressed in ordinances, that he might create in himself one new man in place of the two, so making peace, and might reconcile us both to God in one body through the cross, thereby killing the hostility. And he came and preached peace to you who were far off and peace to those who were near. For through him we both have access in one Spirit to the Father.

So then you are no longer strangers and aliens, but you are fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God, built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus himself being the cornerstone, in whom the whole structure, being joined together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord. In him you also are being built together into a dwelling place for God by the Spirit. Ephesians 2:11-22.

Celebrate with us today as that same revival has continued to the ends of the earth returning back to Israel where both Jewish and Gentile believers are gathering together all across the land to worship as ONE NEW MAN in the Messiah Yeshua (Jesus)!

I hope my readers were observant enough to catch the new name given to the war by the Prime Minister in recent days, but I doubt you understood the context.  Now no longer Simchat Torah War or Swords of Iron, he has renamed it The War of Revival!! (Netanyahu suggests changing name of Gaza war to ‘War of Revival’)

The ONE NEW MAN is still the goal of the New World (Abrahamic Faith) Religion and all the Judeo-Chr*stians.  Why?  Because the goal of the entire anti-Torah world is to assimilate the Jews out of existence!!  Again.  Why?  So they can continue to run HKB"H's world and remake it in their own image.  To de-throne the King of Kings, the Children of the King must cease to exist.  The Satan told them also, "You shall be like God," and they believe it.  

Despite their talk of "God," it is mankind they worship, not their Creator, and they've convinced even themselves that they actually can manifest the power to replace Him through their combined ingenuity.  Some of them even believe that this is what their Creator desired from them from in the first place - not to submit to His will and His instructions but to rebel and realize their innate spiritual potential to become gods in their own right!!  Hashem yerachem!


Quoting from The Document:
In the name of God who has created all human beings equal in rights, duties and dignity, and who has called them to live together as brothers and sisters, to fill the earth and make known the values of goodness, love and peace;

In the name of innocent human life that God has forbidden to kill, affirming that whoever kills a person is like one who kills the whole of humanity, and that whoever saves a person is like one who saves the whole of humanity;

In the name of the poor, the destitute, the marginalized and those most in need whom God has commanded us to help as a duty required of all persons, especially the wealthy and of means;

In the name of orphans, widows, refugees and those exiled from their homes and their countries; in the name of all victims of wars, persecution and injustice; in the name of the weak, those who live in fear, prisoners of war and those tortured in any part of the world, without distinction;

In the name of peoples who have lost their security, peace, and the possibility of living together, becoming victims of destruction, calamity and war; 
In the name of human fraternity that embraces all human beings, unites them and renders them equal;

In the name of this fraternity torn apart by policies of extremism and division, by systems of unrestrained profit or by hateful ideological tendencies that manipulate the actions and the future of men and women;

In the name of freedom, that God has given to all human beings creating them free and distinguishing them by this gift;

In the name of justice and mercy, the foundations of prosperity and the cornerstone of faith;

In the name of all persons of good will present in every part of the world;

In the name of God and of everything stated thus far; Al-Azhar al-Sharif and the Muslims of the East and West, together with the Catholic Church and the Catholics of the East and West, declare the adoption of a culture of dialogue as the path; mutual cooperation as the code of conduct; reciprocal understanding as the method and standard. We, who believe in God and in the final meeting with Him and His judgment, on the basis of our religious and moral responsibility, and through this Document, call upon ourselves, upon the leaders of the world as well as the architects of international policy and world economy, to work strenuously to spread the culture of tolerance and of living together in peace; to intervene at the earliest opportunity to stop the shedding of innocent blood and bring an end to wars, conflicts, environmental decay and the moral and cultural decline that the world is presently experiencing.

We call upon intellectuals, philosophers, religious figures, artists, media professionals and men and women of culture in every part of the world, to rediscover the values of peace, justice, goodness, beauty, human fraternity and coexistence in order to confirm the importance of these values as anchors of salvation for all, and to promote them everywhere.

...History shows that religious extremism, national extremism and also intolerance have produced in the world, be it in the East or West, what might be referred to as signs of a “third world war being fought piecemeal”.

...We affirm also the importance of awakening religious awareness and the need to revive this awareness in the hearts of new generations through sound education and an adherence to moral values and upright religious teachings. In this way we can confront tendencies that are individualistic, selfish, conflicting, and also address radicalism and blind extremism in all its forms and expressions.

...we resolutely declare that religions must never incite war, hateful attitudes, hostility and extremism, nor must they incite violence or the shedding of blood. These tragic realities are the consequence of a deviation from religious teachings.

They result from a political manipulation of religions and from interpretations made by religious groups who, in the course of history, have taken advantage of the power of religious sentiment in the hearts of men and women in order to make them act in a way that has nothing to do with the truth of religion. This is done for the purpose of achieving objectives that are political, economic, worldly and short-sighted. We thus call upon all concerned to stop using religions to incite hatred, violence, extremism and blind fanaticism, and to refrain from using the name of God to justify acts of murder, exile, terrorism and oppression....
You may think this sounds great, as it relates to Islam, but the case can be, and is being, made that it applies equally to Torah Judaism.  It goes on vaunting freedom, tolerance for all, etc.  Totally in contradiction of the Laws of the Torah, despite their constant appeal to "God the Creator."

On a separate but related note, I am distressed at the anti-Torah media in Israel and all their willing accomplices taking advantage in recent days of the pain of widows and bereaved families of so-called national religious (dati) Jews who chose to serve the State and the IDF.  They are using it to ramp up the war on chareidi Jews who serve Klal Yisrael and Hashem through full-time Torah learning, without which we would see many, many more casualties and destruction, God forbid!

It has been made eminently clear to all who seek truth that the chareidim are neither wanted nor needed, even now, and that in any case their religious requirements cannot be accommodated as it is an army very  much promoting  licentious behavior and full of idolaters.  Not only that, it remains under the control and command of Godless men who send our soldiers into harm's way for the protection of enemy elements!!!

Our misguided dati compatriots call out with anguish, "Come die with us!!"  And I who oppose their philosophy as anti-Torah proclaim to them, "Leave the idols to fall and come build the Kingdom."  This "State" is not fighting to win or to preserve Jewish life!!!

Some call it "mowing the grass."  I call it "culling the herd."  God forbid!  Hashem yerachem!!

With One Week to Go...

27 Tishrei 5785 

(WSJ) America Is Having a Panic Attack Over the Election

...With little more than a week to go in what could be the closest presidential election in American history, the nation is on edge. Partisans on both sides are paralyzed with suspense and apprehension as they look to white-knuckle it through the coming days. The candidates have amped up their appeals to an apocalyptic degree as the campaigns frantically work to turn out the vote. As Donald Trump and Kamala Harris both campaigned in this crucial swing state [Georgia], voters broadly said this election feels different than those that came before—less a regular democratic exercise than a national panic attack, a twilight clash that could end democracy for good.

...The angst is widespread across the political spectrum. In a Wall Street Journal poll released last week, 87% of voters said they believe America will suffer permanent damage if their candidate loses. Among Harris’s voters, 57% said they would feel “frightened” if Trump is elected, while 47% of Trump voters said they would feel frightened if Harris wins; smaller percentages expected to feel the milder reactions of anger or disappointment. At least half of voters said they think violence is likely if either Trump or Harris wins, and 53% say America’s divisions will keep growing regardless of the election’s outcome.

...“I have no idea and I don’t think anybody else does, so yeah, it’s stressful,” said Scott Evans, a 64-year-old mortgage broker. “I feel like I live in a country I don’t want to be in anymore. There’s nobody good to vote for.” A Republican-leaning independent who wished Robert F. Kennedy Jr.had stayed in the race, Evans said the country is careening toward a crisis no matter who wins: “Honestly, I think we’re in trouble no matter what,” he said.

...“Civil war—people against the government,” said Madison Bates, a 21-year old student whose T-shirt showed Trump in front of the White House beneath big pink letters reading DADDY’S HOME. “I definitely think if Trump doesn’t get in, that’s what could happen. People are fed up. You see it every day.”



American Jews are on the losing side no matter who becomes the president of this stinking, sinking ship of state.

Beware the "Judeo-Chr*stians"

25 Tishrei 5785 

"Jews" + Chr*stians = Judeo-Chr*stians (an unholy alliance unfettered by Torah parameters or ratzon Hashem; formerly known as Religious/Chr*stian Zionism).


(An Eisavian "plan that will realize our aspirations for stability, security, economic prosperity, and regional partnership," presented and backed by a Who's Who list...)  

* * *

Excerpted from The Empty Wagon by Rabbi Yaakov Shapiro...
Who Are the Allies and Enemies of the Jewish Nation?

Not only are heretics not considered part of the Jewish nation, they are considered its enemies.  An enemy of a nation's king is automatically an enemy of his loyal subjects.

Denying the Torah's authority is denying the authority of the King.  It is not merely a violation of the King's rules, it is a denial of His sovereignty.  It is a treason.  It is a rebellion.

As Dovid Hamelech said:
And those who hate You, Hashem, shall I not hate?  And those who rise up against You, I will rise up against.  I despise them with the utmost contempt.  [Tehillim 139.  This includes heretics (avos D'Rabi Nosson 16)].
An attack on the Torah - by Jews or gentiles - is therefore casus belli, a reason, if need be, for the subjects of His Majesty Hashem to go to war, fight, and die in defense of their beloved King and Father.

...We went to war [with the Greeks on Hanukkah] not because the Jews were in danger, but because the Torah was in danger.  Because Hashem's wishes were in danger.  We went to war not for ourselves but for our King and His Divine will.  We put our lives on the line because the Greeks wanted us to forget Torasecha - Hashem's Torah.  They wanted us to violate chukei retzonecha - Hashem's statutes.  It was Hashem's Torah that was in danger.

We went to war for Hashem.

It does not matter whether the enemy of Hashem is a Jew or a gentile.  An enemy of Hashem is the enemy of the Jewish people.

Someone who lives in the King's domain and refuses to recognize His kingship, or that His subjects are obligated to follow His rules, is a rebel against the King.  And so, too, someone who denies Hashem's existence, or the binding nature of His Torah, is a rebel against Hashem and therefore an enemy of the Jewish people.

Woe to whomever puts their trust in such leadership!!!!
