![]() The War Does Not Exempt You From Cleaning Your Room, Young Manhttp://www.preoccupiedterritory.com/the-war-does-not-exempt-you-from-cleaning-your-room-young-man/ By Mom I know we’re spending more of our time than usual in the bomb shelter, but let me be clear: this war does not exempt you from cleaning your room, young man. I will hear no more arguments. Yes, there is tension in the air, and the very real possibility of getting injured, or worse, by an incoming rocket, but you listen to me and you listen to me well: you will tidy up that disaster area of yours or rockets will be the least of your worries. Now get to it. The Home Front Command was very clear on this: we are to continue living our lives as usual, going about our regular routine. That means you pick up every last bit of dirty laundry, every game piece, and every accessory. Then you sweep up the dust. I’ll not have you thinking that the risk of flying shrapnel means it’s just dandy to leave your filthy underwear all over the floor. I get a conniption fit every time I pass by that room of yours, mister, and that’s a far more pressing issue than any Fajr-5 or M-75. Don’t whine to me about not having enough time because of having to run to the shelter. You seem to have plenty of time for your texting, your games, and your shows. Instead of posting memes about Hamas on Facebook, spend a few minutes picking up after yourself. A clean room does wonders for how you feel, and when you come back from the bomb shelter you’ll feel welcomed by it. At least you have a room! Treat it with respect! Do you know there are people out there whose homes have been destroyed? They would do anything to have a room to clean! And you sit there among your piles of who-knows-what and act like rooms are a dime a dozen. Well, that’s no way for a person to behave. How would you like it if a rocket came down and blew apart this sty of yours you call a room? You’re darn tootin’ I’d make you clean up afterwards. |

![]() “Together, and only together, will we be victorious.”Translation of Colonel Ofer Winter’s Inspiring Letter 28July2014 2014 http://dixieyid.blogspot.co.il/2014/07/translation-of-colonel-ofer-winters.html 9 July 2014 Let us work with resolve and strength and with initiative, strategy, and hard work in our encounter with the enemy. We will do everything we can to fulfill our mission to cut down the enemy and to remove fear from the people of Israel. Our credo is “We do not return before the mission is done.” Let us work and do everything we can to bring back our boys in peace by utilizing every means at our disposal and with any effort that is required. I am relying on you, on each and every one of you, to do your duty in this spirit, the spirit of Jewish warriors who go out in in front of the camp. “The spirit which is called ‘Givati.’” I lift up my eyes to Heaven and say with you, “Shma Yisrael, Hashem Elokeinu, Hashem Echad.” May Hashem, the G-d of Israel, bring success in our mission in which we stand to do battle for the sake of Your people Israel against the enemy who curses Your Name. In the name of the warriors of the IDF generally, and in particular, in the name of the warriors and commanders of our Brigade, may Hashem act and fulfill in us that which it says in the pasuk, “Hashem your G-d goes out with you to do battle with your enemies for you to save you” [Devarim 20:4], and let us say Amen. “Together, and only together, will we be victorious.” Ofer Winter, Aluf Mishneh Commander, Givati Brigade |
31July2014 http://lifeinisrael.blogspot.co.il/2014/07/givati-commander-ofer-vinter-talks.html?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed:+blogspot/yTdM+%28Life+in+Israel%29 This commander of Givati, Ofer Winter, who got criticized for his pre-battle letter to his soldiers in which he said they will be fighting God’s battle and should say Shema Yisrael when going out to battle, is something special. NRG excerpts part of an interview Winter has given to Mishpacha magazine (I assume the Hebrew edition – you probably should go out and buy this week’s edition to see the whole thing). As well, Ynet has some video talking to Winter and more of his comments on the battle. Winter said that now, during this time of war, when the desire to join the armed forces is strong, now it must be stressed that what is really needed for the nation is that the yeshiva students should be learning Torah even more and with more force. It is the Torah that protects the nation of Israel more than anything else. Whoever can sit and learn – must do so now.Winter also describes how his forces have seen miracles in their battles. One story he relates is when they were fighting in Hirbat Hizaah, Wniter says he saw something he had not seen during his entire career in the army to date. Wnter describes that they had decided to attack the area in the week hours of the morning, before daybreak, so the enemy would not notice them. The extraction team arrived at the location on time, but the fighters arrived late. Winter says they did not know what to do, as the sky was already starting to light up and the soldiers were becoming visible, yet they needed to attack. Suddenly, Winter says, a cloud cover came over them and protected them. Clouds of glory (ananei kavod). Suddenly it covered us, the fighters, a heavy fog, that stayed there throughout the attack.Nobody saw us. Only after the houses targeted were destroyed and there was no longer any danger to the soldiers did the fog disperse. Exactly as it says “For Hashem will go with you to save you”. There is more on NRG, and I assume there will be more in the full interview in Mishpacha. It is with the increasing number of people like Ofer Winter in command positions in the Israeli army that they IDF will become not just Israeli but more Jewish in nature. |
From Rabbi Lazer Brody’s Lazer Beams website:Emuna News Analysis: Hamas, the Weed that Grows Back15July2014 http://lazerbrody.typepad.com/lazer_beams/2014/07/hamas.html
The Garden of Emuna – English New Expanded Edition!!!“By way of emuna, life in this world is more beautiful, and…the entire world is like a blossoming garden.” This is a practical guide to life. Discover the power of emuna and powerful tools for dealing with life’s challenges. By Rabbi Shalom Arush, translated by Rabbi Lazer Brody. Paperback, 292 information packed pages. ISBN: 56-1024 Tonight is the start of the notorious “Three Weeks”, which commemorates the difficult things that happened to our people throughout history, including the destruction of both Holy Temples in Jerusalem. The current war is a message from Hashem that necessitates some national soul-searching. Despite the massive IDF airstrikes on Gaza, Hamas is far from down and certainly not out. Defying all logic, after every round of hostilities with Israel, Hamas only gets stronger. Meanwhile, even between conflicts, the south of Israel has been bearing the brunt of intermittent rocket attacks that making living a normal life impossible. We periodically smash Gaza, but like a weed that’s not completely uprooted, Hamas rears its ugly head soon again. Look at recent history: “Operation Cast Lead” began on Dec. 27, 2008 and lasted for 3 weeks. The ceasefire lasted on and off for four years, and then hostilities broke out again with “Operation Pillar of Defense” that began on Nov. 14, 2012 and lasted for 8 days. Yet, since Hamas wasn’t uprooted – indeed, it got much stronger: we only received a 20-month break until the current “Operation Protective Shield” began on July 8, 2014. So far, it has lasted 8 days, but the end is not yet in sight. Why does Hamas continue to get stronger? In the Arab world, anyone who fights Israel is a hero. But that’s not the reason. Without going into too much detail, our sages (Gaon of Vilna, Rabbi Chaim Vital, and others of saintly and blessed memory) warned us that in the end of days, Ishmael will be our menace, and this last exile before Moshiach will be Galut Ishmael, characterized by suicide warfare, as we see with the shahidim of today. Hashem continues to do phenomenal miracles for us. What are the chances that a GRAD rocket make a direct hit on a gas station, and no one gets killed or the 35,000 L gasoline tanker doesn’t explode? Impossible? One in a zillion? It happened in Ashdod this past Friday. Yet, a reverse miracle is happening in Gaza. Despite the massive IDF bombings, Hamas keeps firing at us, as we here in the south of Israel can testify. Where does Hamas get its power from? From Hashem – Hamas is a stick in Hashem’s hands. As long as our political and military leadership fail to understand this and to come to proper conclusions, the cycle of hostilities will just keep going. Hashem has put the Israeli Government in a bind: At this point, a ceasefire with Hamas is pointless. More aerial bombings of the Gaza Strip won’t produce lasting results either. And, a ground invasion of Gaza would be a gift for Hamas, giving them a tangible opportunity to inflict damage on our troops, Heaven forbid. Not only that, but the Israeli Government is not even clear on the objectives it wants to achieve by way of “Operation Defensive Shield.” So how does Israel stop the Hamas and the rocket fire? Israel must uproot the spiritual cause that gives Hamas its strength. We must make a peace-treaty with Hashem. That means returning to Him with full and dedicated emuna. It means Torah and teshuva. Every Jew who reinforces his Judaism is a cogent weapon against Hamas. Every woman who decides to dress more modestly – despite the summer heat – is exhibiting the dedication of an elite commando in Hashem’s army. This is not just “nice talk” – it’s the solid spiritual truth. Deny it, and forget about defeating our enemies. They’ll only come back stronger. Hashem sent the Hamas and Hashem can make all their missiles blow up in their face. But, we must do our part. Hashem wants to send Moshiach and He wants us to get stronger – spiritually – and cling to Him. Once we do, it’s a knockout for the Hamas, soon, amen! – See more at: http://lazerbrody.typepad.com/lazer_beams/#sthash.3faPNFz0.dpuf |

![]() 30,000 Meals a Day among Outpouring of Support for IDF31 July2014 From /matzav.com http://matzav.com/30000-meals-a-day-among-outpouring-of-support-for-idf Doron Elbaz, who owns a farm near the Gaza border, told his kids: “Let’s go buy some lemons and make lemonade for the soldiers driving by.” Soon, his lemonade stand became the focal point for donations that began pouring in from across the country – food, clothing, toiletries, shampoo, baked goods. Joined by a few volunteers, he started making 1,000 meals a day for soldiers, then 2,000 meals, then 5,000 – as donations, and requests from IDF units, poured in. Now 250 volunteers are cooking 30,000 meals per day. A dozen masseurs have set up tables to offer free massages. A barber was offering free haircuts and free shaves. There are a number of similar “rest stops” for soldiers at many intersections along the Gaza border. |

Why Do All These Rabbis Warn Against Getting the Covid-19 Vaccine?
PRAYER TO BE SAVED FROM CORONAVIRUS
Master of Universe, who can do anything!
Cure me and the whole world of the Coronavirus, because redemption is near.
And through this reveal to us the 50th gate of holiness, the secret of the ibbur, and may we begin from this day onward to be strong in keeping interpersonal commandments (i.e. being kind to others).
And by virtue of this may we witness miracles and wonders the likes of which haven’t been since the creation of the world. And may there be sweetening of judgments for the entire world, to all mankind, men women and children.
Please God! Please cure Coronavirus all over the world, as it says about Miriam the prophetess, “Lord, please, cure her, please.”
Please God! Who can do anything! Send a complete healing to the entire world! To all men, women, children, boys and girls, to all humanity wherever they may be, and to all the animals, birds, and creatures. All should be cured from this disease in the blink of an eye, and no trace of the disease should remain.
And all will merit fear of Heaven and fear of God, O Merciful and Compassionate Father.
Please God, please do with us miracles and wonders as you did with our forefathers by the exodus from Egypt. And now, take us and the entire world out from this disease, release us and save us from the Coronavirus that wants to eliminate all mortals.
We now regret all the sins that we did, and we honestly ask for forgiveness. And in the merit of our repentance, this cursed disease, that does not miss men, women, boys, girls, and animals, will be eliminated.
Please God, as quick as the illness came it will go away and disappear immediately, in the blink of an eye, and by this the soul of Messiah Ben David will be revealed.
Please God, grant us the merit to be included in the level of the saints and pure ones, and bless anew all the fruit and vegetation, that all will be healed in the blink of an eye, and we will see Messiah Ben David face to face.
Please God, who acts with greatness beyond comprehension, and does wonders without number. Please now perform also with us miracles and wonders beyond comprehension and let no trace of this cursed disease remain. And may the entire world be cured in the blink of an eye.
Because Hashem did all this in order for us to repent, it is all in order for us to direct our hearts to our Father in Heaven, and by that He will send blessings and success to all of our handiwork.

Point of No Return: Jewish Refugees from Arab Countries
From the 1940s until the 1970s, and heightening with the founding of Israel in 1948, nearly million Jews were expelled from their homes across Arab countries such as Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Egypt, Yemen, Libya, Algeria and Iran.
Jews were frequently subjected to pogroms, systemic violence and religious persecution. Their exiles were largely attributable to Arab regimes increasing their hostility toward Jews because of the very existence of Israel.
Today, while stories abound of many Arab refugees, few are aware or even acknowledge this forgotten exodus of Jewish refugees. Only in Israel has Nov. 30, the day after the UN voted to approve the Jewish-Arab partition plan of Palestine, been marked to commemorate their plight.

An important piece of evidence: The British Palestine Exploration Fund survey map – 1871-1877 – The PEF people delineated every wadi, every settlement, tree, and home. They crisscrossed the territory, and an examination of the map shows how empty and barren the land was, and how few people lived there.
“The Palestinian people does not exist. The creation of a Palestinian state is only a means for continuing our struggle against the state of Israel for our Arab unity… Only for political and tactical reasons do we speak today about the existence of a Palestinian people… to oppose Zionism.” Zuheir Muhsein, the late Military Department head of the PLO and member of its Executive Council.; March 1977, Dutch daily Trouw
London cab driver’s answer to a request from a Muslim to turn off the radio. (You just got to love the Brits.)
A devout Arab Muslim entered a black cab in London .
He curtly asked the cabbie to turn off the radio because as decreed by his religious teaching, he must not listen to music because in the time of the prophet there was no music, especially Western music which is the music of the infidel.
The cab driver politely switched off the radio, stopped the cab and opened the door.
The Arab Muslim asked him, “What are you doing?”
The cabbie answered, “In the time of the prophet there were no taxis, so get out and wait for a camel.”I wonder how many years (hundreds for sure) Jewish people have lived in Quebec. I don’t believe that they have ever demanded that pork be removed from the school’s menu where their children attend…
Excellent reply by the Mayor of Dorval, Quebec, to the demands of the Muslim population in his community.
Put some pork on your fork.
Too bad the USA doesn’t have the common sense to publish this nationwide, even if they have a muslim in the white house. Should also be posted on signs all along U.S. borders.Let’s hear it for a Quebec mayor.
MAYOR REFUSES TO REMOVE PORK FROM SCHOOL CANTEEN MENU. EXPLAINS WHY
Muslim parents demanded the abolition of pork in all the school canteens of a Montreal suburb. The mayor of the Montreal suburb of Dorval, has refused, and the town clerk sent a note to all parents to explain why..
“Muslims must understand that they have to adapt to Canada and Quebec, its customs, its traditions, its way of life, because that’s where they chose to immigrate.
“They must understand that they have to integrate and learn to live in Quebec .
“They must understand that it is for them to change their lifestyle, not the Canadians who so generously welcomed them.
“They must understand that Canadians are neither racist nor xenophobic, they accepted many immigrants before Muslims (whereas the reverse is not true, in that Muslim states do not accept non-Muslim immigrants).
“That no more than other nations, Canadians are not willing to give up their identity, their culture.
“And if Canada is a land of welcome, it’s not the Mayor of Dorval who welcomes foreigners, but the Canadian-Quebecois people as a whole.
“Finally, they must understand that in Canada ( Quebec ) with its Judeo-Christian roots, Christmas trees, churches and religious festivals, religion must remain in the private domain. The municipality of Dorval was right to refuse any concessions to Islam and Sharia.
“For Muslims who disagree with secularism and do not feel comfortable in Canada, there are 57 beautiful Muslim countries in the world, most of them under-populated and ready to receive them with open halal arms in accordance with Shariah.
“If you left your country for Canada, and not for other Muslim countries, it is because you have considered that life is better in Canada than elsewhere.
“Ask yourself the question, just once, “Why is it better here in Canada than where you come from?”
“A canteen with pork is part of the answer.”
If you feel the same forward it on.
This reminds me of a Morty Dolinsky story from the time he was head of the Government Press Office:
When the late Morty Dolinsky was in charge of the Government Press Office in the 1980s, he once famously replied to a reporter, who asked for information about the West Bank, that he knew no West Bank as he banked at Leumi. -

What the Muslim terrorists view of children really is
From Rabbi Lazer Brody’s Lazer Beams website:
Israel and Ishmael, Order and Disorder
23July2014 http://lazerbrody.typepad.com/lazer_beams/2014/07/israel-and-ishmael-order-and-disorder.html
Hashem in His loving grace and amazing compassion has enabled me to understand the current conflict between Israel and Hamastan-Gaza by way of physics, and particularly thermodynamics. We know that the physical manifestations of creation reflect the underlying spiritual laws that the Creator in His omniscience instilled in creation. Whereas science concerns itself with the mechanics of events within nature, emuna concerns itself with the mechanics of events above nature.Without confusing you with the laws of energy and thermodynamics, let’s simplify: there are two opposing powers in molecular theory – the power that seeks order and the power that seeks disorder. These two powers always fight each other. The more that the power of order prevails, the more the world obtains “Gibbs Free Energy”, which is more commonly known as “free enthalpy”, or useful energy. The more that the power of disorder prevails, the greater the “entropy” or chaotic, unproductive energy in the world. We can now understand how the same nuclear energy can illuminate the world when its in the responsible hands of a nuclear power plant, or destroy the world when it becomes the entropic energy of a nuclear bomb detonation.
The Torah juxtaposes Israel and Ishmael. Without bogging us down with dozens of quotes, Israel is the world’s “free enthalpy”, or useful energy. Israel has given society everything from morals to medicine, from agriculture to zero illiteracy. Israel has sponsored and spearheaded agricultural, construction, educational and medical projects around the world. Here at home, we’ve made the desert bloom. Our children learn to read at age three. We are a nation that exports compassion, for caring about others is a trait that Jews have an endless reservoir of. Our Torah is a “tree of life” whose ways are all peaceful and pleasant. Israel uses its resources to educate and heal people; our concrete and metal go to building schools, hospitals and factories. Our faith is emuna, spreading the light of Hashem’s love for every human.
On the other hand, Ishmael is the power of disorder and chaos, destructive energy. As the Torah says, his hands are on everybody – he can’t live without a fight. His contribution to society is negative, for he destroys rather than builds. Other than jihad, his constant holy wars, he has no claim to fame. His money results from his natural resources – oil – which Hashem gave him as a reward for being circumcised. He has no technology or knowledge base of his own. His children learn cruelty from a young age, growing up with the burning desire to kill his rival, Israel; so much so, that he’ll sacrifice his own family without blinking an eyelash to spill the blood of Israel, Heaven forbid. Ishmael uses its resources to kill his rivals; not only Jews, but his own people as he does in Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Libya, Gaza and everywhere else he lives. His concrete and metal resources go to building terrorist tunnels; his kids don’t need to read and write as long as they can wield a knife and operate an AK-47. His faith is Jihad, holy war, killing anyone who doesn’t agree with his darkside murderous treachery that he calls a religion.
The above explains the war in Gaza. No, it’s not Israel’s war with the Gazans. This is a struggle between the useful energy of the world and the destructive energy of the world. Israel must overcome in order for this planet to be a decent place to dwell in. The French, Germans, British and Belgians can now understand why their homelands are becoming less and less tolerable as they are being taken over by the Ishmaelites.
For the ultimate good of mankind and this planet, may Hashem help us prevail, amen.

Brain Study Sheds Light On Impulsive Violence
The human brain is wired with natural checks and balances that control negative emotions, but breakdowns in this regulatory system appear to heighten risk of violent behavior, according to findings of a study by UW-Madison psychologist Richard Davidson.
As part of a special report on violence in the July 28 issue of the journal Science, Davidson and colleagues analyzed brain imaging data from a large, diverse group of studies on violent subjects and those predisposed to violence. The studies focused on people diagnosed with aggressive personality disorder, those with childhood brain injuries and convicted murderers.
Researchers found common neurological threads among these more than 500 subjects in the brain’s inability to properly regulate emotion. The study focused on several interconnected regions in the prefrontal cortex of the brain, areas defined in Davidson’s previous work as an essential control mechanism for negative emotions.
A similar brain process has been implicated in a number of mental health problems, including depression and anxiety disorders. Davidson says this newfound connection between violence and brain dysfunction opens a new avenue for studying and possibly treating violence and aggression.
“We are placing the question of violence right in the middle of our basic research on the neurobiology of emotion, because our previous insights in this area give us tremendous leverage to understand the root causes of violence,” Davidson says. “There never has been a theoretical framework to make sense of this before.”
One of the core findings, Davidson says, deals with the interplay between several distinct brain regions, namely the orbital frontal cortex, the anterior cingulate cortex and the amygdala. The orbital frontal cortex plays a crucial role in constraining impulsive outbursts, while the anterior cingulate cortex recruits other brain regions in the response to conflict. The amygdala, a tiny but highly influential portion of the brain, is involved in the production of a fear response and other negative emotions.
Davidson and colleagues Katherine Putnam and Christine Larson found that normal brain activity in the orbital and anterior regions were blunted or entirely absent in many of the study groups, while the amygdala showed normal or heightened activity. The inability of the two brain regions to effectively counteract the response of the amygdala may help explain how threatening situations can become explosive in some people.
A major strength of the research is in the range of people studied and the consistency of the results, Davidson says. The researchers found dysfunction in common brain regions in reviews of brain imaging data from 41 murderers, from a study group suffering from aggressive impulsive personality disorder, and from a group diagnosed with antisocial personality disorder.
They also reviewed data from two individuals who suffered early damage to the two regions of the brain in question. Those individuals, injured early in life, both showed histories of verbal and physical abusiveness and intermittent, explosive bursts of anger.
The research paper also described a large group of subjects who have a genetic deficit that causes a disruption in the brain’s serotonin levels. The serotonin system employs many of the brain regions described earlier and a disruption of the system has been linked to increased aggression. Davidson’s analysis showed that these emotion-controlling brain regions showed less activity in the individuals who carried this genetic abnormality.
Davidson stresses that the research points to both genetics and poor environmental history as potential contributors to impulsive violence, and together they present a “double whammy” that put people at much greater risk. “These parts of the brain are particularly responsive to experiential shaping,” Davidson says.
The study may recast the way society looks at impulsive violence, by defining it as a mental health issue. “Emotion regulation is extremely significant for a whole constellation of problems people encounter,” he says.
The long-term implications of the study will be in the realm of new treatments, Davidson predicts, that will combine targeted behavioral interventions with drug therapies, in much the same way depression and anxiety disorders are treated.
“Given what we know about brain plasticity and the fact that the brain really can change in response to experience, we have good reason to expect that these treatments may, in fact, have beneficial consequences,” Davidson says.
While the research points to emotion regulation deficits as a “smoking gun” in impulsive violence, Davidson cautions that science is a long way from developing any preventive strategy for at-risk populations. Davidson’s future studies will explore this complex brain process in much greater detail, through the use of imaging technologies such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and positron emission topography (PET) used in tandem for high-resolution, real time images of brain function.
Davidson is director of the Wisconsin Center for Affective Science and directs the W.M. Keck Center for Functional Brian Imaging. His research is supported by the National Institute of Mental Health.

Hamas uses Mosques and Schools to Store its Weapons
Uploaded on Jan 19, 2009
Since Operation Cast Lead, Hamas has made countless efforts to arm it self with many weapons, aimed at harming Israel’s civilian population.
Hamas, knowing that Israel refrains from any strike on Gaza that might hurt innocent civilians, is hiding their weapons arsenal in civilian areas, such as mosques, houses and schools. This doctrine has helped Hamas create false propaganda, by publishing footage of enormous explosions in Gaza that are actually induced by secondary blasts caused from the ammunition hidden in the bombarded buildings.

7 July 2005, four British Islamist men detonated four bombs—three in quick succession aboard London Underground trains across the city and, later, a fourth on a double-decker bus in Tavistock Square. As well as the four bombers, 52 civilians were killed and over 700 more were injured in the attacks, the United Kingdom’s worst terrorist incident since the 1988 Lockerbie bombing as well as the country’s first ever suicide attack.
The Sbarro restaurant suicide bombing, also called the Sbarro massacre, was a Palestinian terrorist attack on a pizzeria in downtown Jerusalem on 9 August 2001, in which 15 civilians were killed, including 7 children and a pregnant woman, and 130 wounded.
Shmuel HaNavi bus bombing From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The Shmuel HaNavi bus bombing was the suicide bombing of a crowded public bus (Egged bus 2) in the Shmuel HaNavi quarter in Jerusalem, Israel, on August 19, 2003. Twenty-four people were killed and over 130 wounded. Many of the victims were children, some of them infants. The Islamist militant group Hamas claimed responsibility for the attack.
The September 11 attacks were a series of four coordinated terrorist attacks launched by the Islamic terrorist group al-Qaeda upon the United States in New York City and the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area on Tuesday, September 11, 2001. The attacks killed almost 3,000 people and caused at least $10 billion in property and infrastructure damage.
Regular readers of the New York Times may recall that its editors provided an unsurpassed platform, and sickening prominence, to our daughter’s murderer six years ago when she was still a prisoner serving multiple life terms (these days, she is out, free as a bird and newly married). We wrote about it here: “28-Jun-07: About sweet-faced young women”, “5-Jul-07: A Balance of Views?” and “7-Jul-07: A Palestinian Terrorist”. We were as outraged then as today by the ease with which they slid past the grotesque acts for which this woman and her fellow child-killers were responsible, and in which the citizens of bucolic Nabi Saleh take such unconcealed pride.

Incitement to Genocide: How NY Times’ Coverage and UN Complicity Breed Anti-Semitism
by Dr. Phyllis Chesler 29July2014 http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Peace/2014/07/29/Incitement-to-Genocide-How-NY-Times-Coverage-and-UN-Complicity-Breed-Anti-Semitism
Are The United Nations and the NY Times Guilty of Incitement to Genocide? Should they be held in any way accountable for the incitement against Jews and Israel that is erupting globally?
I am asking this question seriously. Yes, I know, the media has a First Amendment right in our country, but at what point must exercising that right be weighed against the harm it is causing to a long-maligned and vulnerable population? Surely, it is time to ask this question.
Thanks to Professor Laurel Leff, the author of Buried By The Times, we now know that the New York Times most shamefully minimized, dismissed, and simply failed to cover the ongoing European Holocaust in the 1930’s and 1940’s. And no, their owners and major journalists neither acknowledged this nor apologized for it. In fact, they reviewed Leff’s book in their pages and while granting her some points, accused her of missing “context.”
The twenty-first century coverage of Israel and Zionism in the paper of record far exceeds its twentieth century pattern of mere dismissal. In the last fourteen years–in the last year– in article after article, photograph after photograph, and especially when Israel has been under attack, this paper has systematically put forth an Islamist and pro-Hamas agenda with malice aforethought. If not “malice,” then the level of willful journalistic ignorance and blindness is hard to believe. The Public Editor has been forced to respond to a “deluge” of letters pointing this out. The Times does not usually publish all these letters.
This steady diet of Pravda-like propaganda, may, in part, account for the ever-wilder pogroms against Jews in Europe and the pogrom-like demonstrations in North America–street and campus demonstrations which I long ago dubbed “Gaza on the Hudson” or “Gaza on the Pacific.” “Death to the Jews” is once again resounding in the streets of Paris, just as it did when Dreyfus was falsely accused of treason. The assimilated Viennese journalist, Theodore Herzl, was so shaken by this visceral hatred that it led to his vision and activism on behalf of a Jewish State.
The existence of that very state is now the reason given for the vilification of and the most menacing mob-surges against Jews who are being individually blamed for the false allegations against Israel. What my colleagues Richard Landes and Nidra Poller have described as the “lethal narrative” or the Blood Libels against the Jewish state have finally borne their poisoned fruit. I wrote about this in my 2003 book The New Anti-Semitism.
All across Europe, Muslim/leftist mobs are calling for Jewish blood, screaming that Jews should go back to the gas chambers. The educated classes are more “genteel.” They call for “proportionality,” by which they must mean that more Jews have to die before they will exercise the slightest compassion, if even then.
Large numbers of people actually believe that Israelis are a Nazi, apartheid, colonialist, racist Monster regime– when, heartbreakingly, quite the opposite is true. Even as Hamas rockets are falling on them, Israeli doctors are operating on wounded and innocent Palestinian civilians–who have often been wounded by Hamas rockets or by Hamas’s decision to use their own people as human shields.
But those who read the New York Times as if it is their Bible and those who drink at similarly poisoned media wells, have been fatally indoctrinated and will not listen to facts, and spurn reason, context, and the truth.
The New York Times and all media that have been slanting the truth against Israel stand accused. I believe that their legal exercising of their First Amendment rights nevertheless has been inciting the masses to a slow motion Second Holocaust, a new genocide.
Individual university professors who knowingly teach hate, falsehood, Blood Libels, have also played a role. But their work has been made immeasurably easier by the mainstream media–and by the authority granted to one particular international body.
As to the United Nations: Their main and perhaps sole accomplishment has, in my view, been the legalization of Jew hatred and the isolation of the Jewish state. Their endless resolutions condemning Israel might indeed empower mobs to attack individual Jews all across Europe with impunity and might embolden Israel’s terrorist enemies to pursue their target relentlessly.
In the past, I and others have argued for the United States to withhold funds from the UN, to leave it entirely, or to form a new global entity consisting only of Western-style democracies. Of course, both India and Israel would qualify as would Canada, New Zealand, Australia, Europe, and a number of other countries.
I have written about this many times before. This time, I will refer to Anne Bayefsky’s most excellent coverage of the outrages, hot hatred, hypocrisy, perhaps madness, that dominates how the United Nations handles Israel even as it fails to deal with serious atrocities elsewhere, everywhere. Eleanor Roosevelt must be turning in her grave given the rather high hopes she had for her vision of Nations United.
Ambassador John Bolton has critiqued and condemned the United Nations for a long time. He was refreshingly cogent on the issue. No one took him seriously, least of all men like President Obama and Secretary of State Kerry who all worship the UN for it’s hard line, Euro-style anti-Americanism and anti-Zionism and for its deference to the Organization of Islamic States.
Anti-Zionism does not equal racism. Actually, as Martin Luther King Jr. once said: Anti-Zionism is anti-Semitism. And, as Judea Pearl has said: Anti-Zionism=Racism.
I have been covering the war against the Jews for more than forty-four years; some would say for sixty-six years, since I joined Hashomer Hatzair, (The Young Guard or Watchers), in Borough Park, Brooklyn, in 1948.
I believe the time is right for such questions to be posed and for lawyers to begin thinking about whether the poisoned propaganda being purveyed and unleashed by both the United Nations and the New York Times rises to the level of a civil or criminal lawsuit. If lawyers emerge to take this on, I will do all that I can to assist them.
Hamas Rockets Leave Leftists Buried Under Collapsed Ideology
North Tel Aviv, July 16 2014 – http://www.preoccupiedterritory.com/hamas-rockets-leave-leftists-buried-under-collapsed-ideology/
While Hamas rocket-launch teams in Gaza continue their so-far-unsuccessful attempt to sow widespread death and destruction among the Israeli civilian population, the Home Front Command today reported a sharp increase in referrals of leftist Israelis for treatment of psychiatric trauma.
Hospital emergency rooms that had been prepared for numerous physical injuries have instead been receiving a large number of psychiatric cases. Shock among leftists is apparently the major cause, according to ER spokespeople and patients. “This morning I was watching CNN report how innocent Palestinians, disabled women and children among them, were being killed by the Zionist air force when the sirens went off for the umpteenth time,” said a shaken Cameron Sickle, a Tel Aviv member of the Meretz party. “Before I could get to the shelter, I was out in the open and there was this big crash – I was suddenly struck by the notion that Hamas could have built a functional, possibly even thriving Gaza, but instead they are trying to kill me, and CNN and the BBC never told me that, and of course why should they and I just can’t take it and.. and…” Sickle is under sedation at Asuta Hospital.
Emergency Services last night removed Peace Now activist Hasva Halila from an alleyway behind her apartment building in the Ramat Aviv neighborhood. An incoming rocket had been intercepted directly overhead by an Iron Dome battery as she huddled against the wall. Magen David Adom ambulance volunteers reported that Halila had been “terrorized” – they found her stuttering incoherently and repeatedly, “Missiles are bad, peace now, war is bad, peace now, they almost killed me, peace now, a missile saved my life, peace now, missiles are bad, peace now, war is bad…”
“We call this behavior the Mobius Syndrome,” said a paramedic at the scene, “when committed leftists whose entire lives had been spent relying on rage, personal attack, willful blindness, moral relativism, self-loathing, and snarky rejoinder to sustain their belief system, suddenly are confronted with a cold, undeniable and deadly fact contrary to their rose-colored vision. They go into shock, endlessly trapped in a circular pattern of incredulity. Hopefully, research at Weizmann can provide a cure.”
Poll figures are showing a 90% support rate for Israeli army efforts at stopping the barrage from Gaza while only 3% oppose. Ms. Halila is now committed to a psych ward, where she has repeatedly chided the custodian for killing billions of defenseless bacteria each time he washes the floor.

A tale of 3 children
BS”D 30July2014
from a trusted e-mail
Please make the attached letter “viral”. It will help let the world know what the Muslim terrorists, Hamas et al, really are & what their view of children really is.
I invite those who can, to translate or get someone to do so to as many languages as possible so as to further spread the word. Just be sure the translations are true to the original, no additions no subtractions.Also I beg of you to not ask me questions of #2. Merely typing it was already hard on me, bringing tears to my eyes as I had to pull from my mind the recounting. I might still have picture of Sonia & if I can get myself to look for it & find will one day send it.
A tale of 3 children
The title of this essay is a play on the title of the book “A tale of 2 cities”. This letter is no less serious than the subject of that book.
I will bring you here the story of the end of the lives of 3 children in Israel. Note carefully that numbers 1 and 2 were before the 6 day war of 1967.
1. Duvidel
2. Sonia
3. Nameless
1] Duvidel was an 8 year old boy living on a farm commune near the Southwest coast of Israel before the independence war of 1948. The atmosphere of his young upbringing was one of friendship, gentle folk songs and agriculture. Due to the dry climate and that for centuries the land had been barren wasteland the fruit orchards were all surrounded with high dykes to hold in water that was carefully rationed to each sector. One day while walking about in one of the orchards, as the children often did, Duvidel disappeared. The entire community searched high and wide for him. Duvidel was nowhere to be found. To no-one’s surprise, the British police were not interested in coming to investigate. The unofficial defense force was notified and a security team made a more detailed search. In one of the dyked sectors at the edge of the communes land, signs of a struggle were found with 2 sets of adult footprints leading to the spot from the dyke and again 2 sets leading back over the dyke and out of the commune’s lands and there was found a hole in the fence. On a point of cut wire was a torn piece of cloth. This was soon identified as a piece of Duvidel’s shirt.
The only information gatherable from contacts was that a group of fedayun (terrorists) had snatched him. The fear for his welfare and sorrow was great. The next day while some of the commune’s farmers were in that sector Duvidel appeared on the top of the dyke. He shouted to them, “Don’t come near me. The Arabs booby trapped me. They sent me back here to be a walking bomb to kill anyone coming to help me home. If anyone tries to hold me I will explode. They told me that also if anyone tries to disarm the bomb I will explode too. Tell Ima and Aba I love them, there is no hope to save me. At least none of you will be harmed by their evil plan.”
He turned and jumped down to the far side of the dyke, and exploded. He was only 8 years old when the Arabs caused his awful death. Immoral beasts with no regard for innocent children, no regard for international law.
2] Sonia was a16 1/2 year old, almost 17, immigrant from Soviet Russia when I met her in 1965. She was a sweet pretty wisp of a girl, naturally multi-shaded blonde hair and with sadness and joy together in her ice blue eyes and a musical tone to her gentle voice. I was a year older than her.
We literally bumped into each other when we first met in the Maayan Shtub family clothing shop in Jerusalem. I was looking at 2 rabushka shirts displayed on half mannequins. They were cotton shirts with a straight up collar (similar to a cuff on a sleeve) with colorful embroidery on the collar and cuffs. One was black with wave pattern embroidery in white, red and blue. The other was white and had purple grape clusters and green leaves. The opening was to the side, not center, and was closed with small snaps. Sonia apparently had been staring at the same shirts as she walked by and didn’t notice me standing there. She embarrassedly poured out a plethora of apologies in a stammering mixture of Hebrew and Russian. I laughed and told her it was fine, after all if someone had to bump into me it may as well be a dainty humming bird like her. She stopped, looked at me confused for a second and broke into a bubbling laughter too. The she explained that the shirts reminded her of her father. We asked each other if we were okay after the collision. I bought one each of the rabushkas, she bought herself a reasonably modest swim suit and we went to a kiosk to buy ice cream. She blushed when I offered to buy for her. That and the modest swim suit were already good points in her favor.
We met almost daily after that. Eventually I was invited to dinners and then Shabat at the family which had informally adopted her. I was to learn that leaving Russia was forbidden but she and her parents wanted desperately to make aliyah. Her parents were each sole survivors of their families. Her mother had barely escaped the Babi-Yar massacre. Her father had miraculously survived some other massacre inside Russia. She was their only child and they knew they would never be able to get out. So they saved for several years, found the needed contacts and when she was 15 they paid for an experienced smuggling organisation to get her out alive and as far as Israel with all the needed papers to get her in legally. The journey took almost an entire year due to the need to stop for extended times in various places, sometimes to hide, sometimes to arrange for papers needed to go onwards.
She could never write to her parents or get letters from them for it would endanger their lives, if they were at all still alive. The simple discovery by the KGB of her disappearance would already put them in danger. Being school aged, and schooling being legally required, the authorities probably had discovered at least a year ago that she had escaped the dreaded Soviet regime.
As the months went by we got closer and closer. We began discussing what we each wanted for our futures, what life meant. We decided that when we both were of legal age to do so we would marry and raise a family of our own. Sonia and I began planning where to live etc. We had not announced our decision but our close serious connection was noticed by her adopted family and was quietly approved. One evening, in the late spring of 1966, when I called to speak with her I got the hard news. “Sonia has disappeared while taking her a walk in the nearby orange grove. The police and border police suspect a terrorist kidnapping.”
I immediately ran to take a bus to their place and joined the search teams. Trackers found signs of the struggle and the exit direction. The search took us into the eastern Negev and northern Arava region. After several days we had found the hut where they had taken her to. The border police went in while I had been told to stay back at first, and let them neutralize the terrorists, before I went in with the medics. There seemed to be four terrorists involved. Two were outside and were taken care of with silenced M-1 rifles.
After a brief firefight with the remaining two, we could go in. The army medic, who was also her adopted father, advised me to wait while he and his assistant went in before me and would call me. When they called me in both had tears on their faces they had covered her completely leaving only her eyes exposed. There were blood stains seeping through the light emergency first aid covers. Though they had already given her an injection of pain reliever, her eyes poured out tremendous pain from the torture this gentle innocent girl had endured at the hands of those evil ghouls. She could barely speak, it was difficult to hear and understand what she said. I bent down close to her. She whispered to me, “The injection relieves the pain enough that I can talk. Please do not look at what was under the covers even not my face. Forgive me for not being able to give you a final kiss. Please gently kiss my eyes” Which I did. Then she said, “These 10 months of our loving friendship gave me solace and joy. You are my soul. Our love is eternal beyond time beyond this world; I ask that while you remember that, you must also continue your life anew. Shalom my precious….” Then my precious little Sonia closed her eyes for the last time. HAY”D (HaShem will avenge her blood)!
With her passing two family trees were erased from the world. The generations she could have mothered would never be. Sonia an innocent gentle child who had harmed no-one was cruelly tortured to death by Muslim Arab war criminal fiends.
3] This one was told to me by an IDF medic after a recent war. The child was an Arab infant in Jenin, if I recall correctly which town it was. A squad was doing a house to house search. They came to a house from which was heard the cry of an infant and no other sound. One of the soldiers cautiously opened the door while others covered his back on the street. No one seemed to be inside except for a lone infant lying on its belly on the floor in the middle of the room. “Look at that. Those lousy characters abandoned a baby when they ran off. Poor little kid.” He called squad’s medic. 2 soldiers stood by the door to guard in case of any terrorists hiding to attack someone coming to care for the baby while the medic bent down to gently pick up the infant.
But as it sorrowfully turned out this was not a haphazardly abandoned infant. The ghouls had placed the baby was booby trapped so that upon being lifted a small but strong explosive charge hidden under it exploded, instantly killing the infant and the medic!
Who is it who kills innocent children? They know that Jews care, have soft hearts about, children even children of a self avowed enemy, and used that fact for their murderous evil, even slaughter one of their own helpless infants for it.
