Jews are their worst enemy. OU Advocacy is now in Damage Control Mode. Mark Langfan, AFSI. Letter to Rabbonim about accepting money from the Sitra Acher. At the moment the Democratic Party has a platform that would make the Sitra Acher very happy!

President Trump has ripped off the false veneer of American Jewish Dems faux support for the safety and security of Israel. President Trump has exposed the ugly truth:

In This Week in the Jewish Vues http://jewishvues.com/

How to get money for Yeshivas

Maury Litwack is the Executive
Director of the Teach Advocacy
Network for the OU. Under Maury's leadership, the organization
has grown from a staff of 1 to a
multi-state lobbying effort which
has delivered over 500 million in
state funding alone to Jewish day
schools. Ari Hirsch/Jewish Vues
sat down with Maury to discuss
the latest with Teach NYS and
find out what he's working on
currently.

https://view.flipdocs.com/?PID=1000741#1  See page 22 and 23.

I was extremely disappointed that the Jewish Vues carried this front page story that puts the Democrats in a positive light!

I am disappointed because Alan Hirsch, the founding Father of the The Vues, is now retired and made Aliya.  He is the powerhouse behind Kimche D'Pischa raising hundreds of thousands of dollars yearly for Pesach needs of the communities of Judea and Samaria.  He raises money for Hachnossas Orchim Chevron.  This article is therefore not representative of the typical vues of The Vues I knew and loved even with the TV listings and smaller size edition.  Will it keep it's pro Judea Samaria lifeline or will it buckle like other mainstream Jewish publications?

I've noticed that ever since Trump has come out with his statement  "Jews Who Vote for Democrats Show 'Total Lack of Knowledge,' 'Great Disloyalty': the OU is now in DAMAGE CONTROL MODE big time, responded with placing articles and ads in Jewish Print Media that attempts to put the Democrats in a positive light!  ... davka in the most right wing publications whose base are pro Trump :(.  

Front page articles in this week's The Vues and the Five Towns Jewish Towns featuring Maury Litwack of OU Advocacy are not coincidental nor happenstance.  

IMHO, these very pro Israel papers were duped and used or most likely bought. 

In the August  5TJT, an oped article written by editor Larry Gordon is bending over backward and trying to put the Democratic party in a positive light.

Editor: Just Say No August 21, 2019
By Larry Gordon
It is untrue that Democratic members of Congress are reconsidering their support for Israel because of the fallout from the planned trip to the Jewish state by Congresswomen Rashida Tlaib and Ilhan Oma

http://www.5tjt.com/editor-just-say-no/

This bold caption on page 15 of this cover story says it all in case you didn't read the article.

Democrats are not abandoning Israel over this matter

In this last weeks issue as well as this week OU  played a very dominant role!  Many ads for the OU,  like full page ad for OU Torah NY September 22, 2019 and OU accelerator, double page spread for OU NCSY etc.  Maury Litwack's picture was very prominently displayed in the following article (as was Rashida Tlaib and Jerry Nadler on other pages. Couldn't a smaller pic suffice for Israel's enemy and betrayer?).

This Week's Edition From the Editor
From the Editor: On Being Disloyal August 28, 2019

http://www.5tjt.com/from-the-editor-on-being-disloyal/

I understand that newspapers need revenue to continue to publish.  However, receiving revenue from  the OU with an understanding to cover up the evil advocacy and platforms of the Democrats is simply not worth it.  Short term gain perhaps, but long term tragedy. 

We are our worst enemy. 

Please read another article which is not as complementary about Yeshiva Education money and which  maligns Yeshiva Education and threatens Yeshiva Education on a spiritual plane, far worse than the present physical security threats that the Security money is supposed to protect.. .

NYC yeshivas collect more than $100M a year in public funds
By Susan Edelman January 19, 2019 | 10:19pm | Updated

https://nypost.com/2019/01/19/nyc-yeshivas-collect-more-than-100m-a-year-in-public-funds/

Does TEACHNYS undermine the Security of Israel by collaborating with Democrats and receive much needed funding and in return whitewash a party that has been throwing Israel under the bus under the Obama Administration going forward.  Democrats are now working for their very survival to destroy Trump, the Republican Administration and his pro Israel platform. I think Maury Litwack and TEACHNYS are being useful idiots.  

If not the case, let them not be afraid to be critical of the Quad and most importantly  the Democratic Leadership that have empowered them!

While $500 million is a lot of money for very worthy causes it is quite a pittance compared to the Iran Deal. The JCPOA under the Obama Administration freed up ...$150 billion placing Israel and the world in grave danger. Baruch Hashem,  Trump reversed this dangerous deal.

Where is the Hakoras HaTov?

Did money flowing to Yeshivas come in a vacuum at the summer of 2015 or was it orchestrated to buy our silence and suppress effective protest against the Iran Deal?

I blogged about this in 2015 when I attended the OU Rabbi's demonstration in DC on September 9, 2015. At the time, my impression was that the OU "Protest" was mere venting. No substance. 

The real protest was on the other side of the lawn which the OU boycotted because they considered it "political"..

Menachem Genack, NORPAC Manhattan: Secretary Hillary Rodham Clinton for President (D) Thursday 1/14 5:30 PM//do u believe this??!! OU, AGUDAH seem to side with Democratic Party

https://shemittahrediscovered.blogspot.com/2016/01/menachem-genack-norpac-manhattan.html  

Rabbi Genack says he does not speak for OU but it is quite clear that he and the OU Rabbi's took the side of the Democratic Party together with a Misheberach for Obama on September 9th 2015 in Washington DC when they sent a bus of hundreds of Rabbis to waste their time in my humble opinion, representing tens of thousands of Jews, in  Washington DC to "protest" the Iran Deal which was a fait accompli according to them basically to vent.   Teshuva and Aseret Yemei Teshuva and the opportunity to change things around was not in their mindset. They stood on the backs of the 500 Rabbi's who came down to Washington DC in October 6, 1943 2 days before Yom Kippur to protest the Nazi Genocide.   They were turned away then...Not clear what message this OU protest was to make.  We will assure Congress that we will simply vent but we understand the Iran Deal is a fait accomplil, so that they won't turn us away when we lobby and vent. 

Is it a surprise that pages are not found for the links of these articles?

• Standing Against a Nuclear-Armed Iran: Rabbis Rally in Washington http://advocacy.ou.org/photo-galleries/standing-nuclear-armed-iran-rabbis-rally-washington/    
• 200 Orthodox Rabbis Rally Against 'Repugnant' Iran Deal http://advocacy.ou.org/news/in-the-news/200-orthodox-rabbis-rally-repugnant-iran-deal/. 

OU Advocacy told the 200-300 Rabbis representing tens of thousands of Jews not to attend the other rally on the Western lawn of the capitol, following their own rally,  because that rally was a "political rally" and the OU is an "apolitical" organization.  

Too bad these Rabbi's missed Glenn Beck's very non political Torahdik address,  words that should have been said at their Rally and weren't. Too bad they didn't join with the tens of thousands of staunch Israel supporters, most of them non Jews, Tea Party Patriots,  because of OU's apolitical stance.

But it is not only the Democratic Leadership stand against Israel which is problematic.

Re: On Values and Morals of the Quad and Progressive Leftist Democrats Who Make Strange Bedfellows. Time for True Believers to Clarify the Standard of Morality and Values based on 7 Noahide Laws! by Robin Ticker

https://shemittahrediscovered.blogspot.com/2019/07/re-on-values-and-morals-of-quad-and.html  

On a positive note, I really loved a quote of the Rebbe of Placetzna on P79 of the 5TJT.

"The Rebbe explained that the war of the Nazis against the Jews was a war against Hashem. They hated our G-d and our Torah".

This is behind Trump's remarks about disloyalty to Israel in supporting the Democratic Party.  They hate our G-d and our Torah". 

Time for Am Yisroel to Advocate for t G-d and for the 7 Noahide Laws and that will bring great Security, knowledge and closeness of G-d to our students and to humanity at large.

Please also pass on to Rabbi Yaakov Bender. 

Jewish Leadership, the OU and Agudah have been invested in the Democratic party. In return we, the Torah communities have received  $60 million for security $30 million for Stem,  hundreds of thousands of dollars going to Hatzolah and Shma Koleinu for autism etc....just some funding that I am aware of... And no one disputes that we need and deserve this much needed support.

On June 5, 2016 I blogged

 https://shemittahrediscovered.blogspot.com/2016/06/happy-birthday-letter-to-donald-trump.html?m=1

Tonight words can not express my great annoyance at the Ezra Friedlander who was on the Oorah Chinese auction,  telling the entire Orthodox Jewish listening audience cross America to vote for Hillary or alternatively not to vote for Hillary so long as they don't vote for Donald Trump (as if that's not a vote for Hillary). His rationalization? Donald Trump insults people and 'turns off tens of millions with his racist anti Hispanic and African American bias.   (paraphrased).  

This funding to TEACHNYS and by extension Jewish media comes with an understanding and a price to bring out the Jewish vote (against Trump).

It basically buys our silence about the unG-dly agenda of the Democratic party.

Our Torah Jewish Leadership have a defeatist attitude about supporting a Republican candidate. We tell our community that no Republican candidate is electable. We say we are apolitical...

We did not support Chele Farley against Kirsten Gillibrand.

We say practically we can't beat the system as NY is a State governed by Democrats.

This in turn had a catch-22 that the City Council and State Assembly in NY are now almost all Democrat going more and more to the extreme left....on our watch with no real opposition over the last decade.

We slowly became dependent on the Democratic party for our community services.

The Democratic Party has pushed for the Iran Deal, empowered the Muslim Brotherhood, empowered the Quad. It didn't happen in a vacuum.

Neither did the NYState Board of Regents regulations.

Yet Rabbi Brudny who is spearheading with Rabbi Reisman and Rabbi Bender the fight for independence of Yeshiva education, and leading Rabbonim are hesitant to distance and oppose the Democratic Leadership. Meanwhile the Democratic Leadership has empowered the Quad and the social justice Democrats who push for gender fluidity, late term abortions, allowing unvetted immigrants  etc.

Why is NY and California the State with the highest concentration of believing Torah Jews not taking a G-dly stand for the 7 Laws of Noach.  

If this trend continues, basic laws of Universal Morality will be violated, stamped into the law itself, via legislation passed by the members of the Council and Assembly and become an integral part of the Law of the Land. This Chas VeShalom will happen if extreme leftist Social Justice Democrats get their way.

Then we as Jews will have to choose between the law of the Land and G-d. Will we choose G-d's law

Perhaps but...

Jews will have to flee NY if we want a untainted Torah lifestyle not to mention big Business as the State goes like CA.

 Practically, What good will security and Stem do for us then?

Even if the Yeshivas get our way and don't have regulated curriculum, if society is corrupted it will seep into the very fiber of society and there is no escape. Like the Dor Hamabul.

וימלא הארץ חמס

Devarim Perek 7:25-26

כה פְּסִילֵ֥י אֱלֹֽהֵיהֶ֖ם תִּשְׂרְפ֣וּן בָּאֵ֑שׁ לֹֽא־תַחְמֹד֩ כֶּ֨סֶף וְזָהָ֤ב עֲלֵיהֶם֙ וְלָֽקַחְתָּ֣ לָ֔ךְ פֶּ֚ן תִּוָּקֵ֣שׁ בּ֔וֹ כִּ֧י תֽוֹעֲבַ֛ת יְהֹוָ֥ה אֱלֹהֶ֖יךָ הֽוּא:

25 The graven images of their gods you will burn with fire; you shall not covet the silver or gold that is upon them and take it for yourself, lest you be ensnared by it, for it is an abomination to the Lord, your God.

כו וְלֹֽא־תָבִ֤יא תֽוֹעֵבָה֙ אֶל־בֵּיתֶ֔ךָ וְהָיִ֥יתָ חֵ֖רֶם כָּמֹ֑הוּ שַׁקֵּ֧ץ | תְּשַׁקְּצֶ֛נּוּ וְתַעֵ֥ב | תְּתַֽעֲבֶ֖נּוּ כִּי־חֵ֥רֶם הֽוּא

26 Nor should you bring an abomination into your house, lest you are to be destroyed like it, but you shall utterly detest it, and you shall utterly abhor it; for it is to be destroyed.

Hashem surely will help Am Yisroel find a way to fund our worthy programs but it can't come from a source of the Sitra Acher.

Time to listen to the Rebbe of Ploacetzna and understand what the Democratic Party of today stands for in their anti G-d agenda.
