How to Best Respond to Day of Rage

bs"d

Let us pray that the words of Meir Ettinger, the grandson of the Late Rabbi Meir Kahana will come to fruition" 

 "In the end you will repent"  (see below)....

Palestinians to mark US Jerusalem embassy opening with 'huge day of rage'
 May 9, 2018
https://worldisraelnews.com/palestinians-mark-us-jerusalem-embassy-opening-huge-day-rage/ 


On the Spiritual realm, releasing  Elisha Odess and Amiram ben Uliel, hilltop youth languishing in prison for almost 3 years with no trial, under Administrative detention,  will greatly weaken the negative impact of  Day of Rage. It's brings a clear message to the world, a sanctification of G-d's H-ly Name,  that we, the People of Israel, validate the Hilltop Youth's claim,  that this Land belongs to the Nation of Israel and not to the Palestinians!!

 

You shall not commit a perversion of justice:


Vayikra - Leviticus - Chapter 19:35 


The Commentary Rashi lists 5 negative consequences that happens from perversion of Justice.  (Hebrew followed by English) 


Commentary) https://www.chabad.org/library/bible_cdo/aid/9920/jewish/Chapter-19.htm#showrashi=true

לֹא־תַֽעֲשׂ֥וּ עָ֖וֶל בַּמִּשְׁפָּ֑ט בַּמִּדָּ֕ה בַּמִּשְׁקָ֖ל וּבַמְּשׂוּרָֽה
לא תעשו עול במשפט: אם לדין, הרי כבר נאמר לא תעשו עול במשפט (פסוק טו), ומהו משפט השנוי כאן, הוא המדה והמשקל והמשורה. מלמד שהמודד נקרא דיין, שאם שיקר במדה הרי הוא כמקלקל את הדין וקרוי עול, שנאוי, ומשוקץ, חרם ותועבה. וגורם לחמשה דברים האמורים בדיין מטמא את הארץ, ומחלל את השם, ומסלק את השכינה, ומפיל את ישראל בחרב, ומגלה אותם מארצם:

You shall not commit a perversion of justice: If we are dealing [here] with litigation, Scripture has already stated (verse above), “You shall commit no injustice in judgment.” So what is the “judgment” that is taught here? It refers to [“just” behavior regarding one’s dealing with] measures, weights or liquid measures: this teaches us that one who measures [out something in business,] is called a “judge,” for if he falsifies the measure, he is considered to be as one who perverts justice. He is [accordingly] called perverse, hated, disgusting, fit for destruction, and an abomination (see Rashi on verse 15 above). [Moreover,] he brings about the five things stated regarding a [corrupt] judge, namely, that he (a) defiles the Land, (b) desecrates the Name of God, (c) drives away the Divine Presence, (d) causes Israel to fall by the sword, and (e) exiles Israel from their Land. — [Torath Kohanim 19:84]

Special Report on Elisha Odess from the Crown Heights Women on the Integrity and Safety of Israel. by Tamar Adelstein. 
Action Items included

A Prayer, a Tefilla to Release Elisha Chaim ben Naama Leah and Amiram ben Nurit and Jonathan Pollard in time for Embassy Opening Be"H.  [Auspicious Time.
Hebron shooter Elor Azarya released after serving 9 months in prison.  3 Political Prisoners were granted Amnesty by North Korean Leader Kim Jung-Un. ]


Bsd

Please Hashem, as a zchut, a merit, for Am Yisroel may Elisha Chaim ben Naama Leah and Amiram ben Nurit be released א,ב,ג, Aleph, Bet, Gimmel as Rabbi Mordechai Rubashkin would say! May the Hilltop Youth  be recognized by all, as a group that is known for their Love of the Land of Israel, Love of their Fellow Jew, Love of Hashem's H-ly Torah and Mitzvoth and that they are G-d Fearing Jews who yearn for Malchut Shamayim [for a G-dly Kingdom].

Let this be known in Israel and  amongst all of the Nations for the sake of Mishpat, Tzedek, Chesed veEmet..[Justice, Righteousness, Kindness and Truth].

Let Jonathan Pollard, [Yonatan ben Malka], be released from his parole chains and be permitted to come to Jerusalem in time of the USA embassy move.

Be"H שנזכה לבשורות טובות ישועות ונחמות במהרה.[May we merit to good tidings, salvation and comfort very soon]



These Hilltop Youth were tortured and there is no forensic evidence that they committed any crime other than guilt by association to Rabbi Kahana's ob"m ideology.  Read the Statement by Meir Ettinger, [at the end of this post], the grandson of the Late Rabbi Kahana ob"m, and see if indeed, he and those affiliated with this ideology, were justifiably designated as a terrorist organization.  

This act of correcting a perversion of Justice will unite us as a Nation...The time has come to right a wrong, as many in leadership positions in Israel prematurely rushed to condemn the hilltop youth before the facts and evidence were examined! The investigation itself and the Judges on the case were biased and not neutral. 

Let the People apply pressure on Prime Minister Netanyahu and Prime Minister Rivlin to do what Kim Jung-un did in releasing 3 innocent political prisoners.  

This is the best response to Day of Rage  as it addresses the conflict at its very root.  

In addition....

Bring Jonathan Pollard home to Israel! 

Stop Demolition Orders for Netiv HaAvot!

[Do we really believe he and those associated with him are terrorists?]

13 September 2015
SPECIAL MESSAGE: "In The End You Will Repent"
29 Elul 5775
Erev Rosh Hashanah


I meant for my New Year's greeting to be the last post of the old year, but this just has to be seen asap. I'm only half way through reading it, but I knew it had to be publicized. If this is the future, there's hope for us yet. (Not that I ever doubted it.) It's like having Rabbi Kahane back! Enjoy!

Here's wishing Meir Ettinger and all the political prisoners of true Zion a year of jubilee and redemption and may all of our fondest dreams and wishes and prayers for it be answered positively and without any further delays! Amen!
___________________________

Meir Ettinger's words to the Court: In the end you will repent

BY MEIR ETTINGER ON SEPTEMBER 12, 2015

(The following are the words of Meir Ettinger said during his hearing on Sep. 10th, 2015. This hearing was the third and final hearing that the court will hear before officially approving his administrative detention. It is important to note that receiving the approval of the court is a mere formality for administrative detention and does not involve an actual trial.)

I would like to speak before the court and have my words recorded in the minutes. At the same time, I reiterate that this is not because I recognize the authority of this court. I don't recognize the validity of laws that are against the Torah and I see no reason to defend myself against accusations based on false laws that were created by man today and will be changed by him tomorrow.

Rather, because of our sins, instead of having a court based on the holy Torah, the word of G-d, we have been taken captive by false courts. These captors are the prosecution, the media, and the false courts of today that have waged war against the land of Israel, the Torah of Israel, and those who fear the G-d of Israel. Their goal is to foster the growth of a foreign culture in our midst to replace the way of the Torah and service to G-d in the land of Israel.

It is therefore a Chazakah [predetermined] what this court will decide in this hearing. One way or another, the results are known in advance and I therefore have no desire to play a part in this game. It is merely a pathetic attempt by the government to pretend that their decision is based on justice and democracy. 

Nonetheless, this hearing provides me the right to speak and I will exercise the right to tell you what bothers you so much, what you are fighting, and what was the reason for my arrest.

I cannot discuss in this short time all of the ridiculous media stories. According to the media, I am somehow the number one target of the Shabak.

It should be noted that the targets of the Shabak are not established in order to preserve public safety or ensure calm, but instead are based on a political agenda and focus on protecting the culture of 'equality' that they force down the throats of the public.

Therefore, instead of discussing 'public safety,' I will explain my activism and why my actions are so upsetting to the confused establishment.

In their accusations they used the phrase, "changing the regime." So what does that really mean? What exactly is this mysterious 'group,' which I supposedly lead, doing to further that goal? The truth is that we are dealing with very basic statements that were made freely available to all. Yes, I admit it - I, like many other Jews, have dreams, hopes and desires of establishing the Kingdom of Israel. The 'group' I am a part of, was founded during the exodus from Egypt and the receiving of the Torah on Mount Sinai. There the Jewish people were chosen to be a nation of priests and a holy people in the land of Israel.

So what is this 'Kingdom of Israel'? For 2000 years in exile, Jews around the world said in their prayers "Let me witness the return to Zion" and concluded with the words, "blessed is He who restores His glory to Zion." These Jews did not merely want to return to the land of Israel to build fields and buildings. They wanted more. They wanted to restore G-d's presence in the land by creating a state that would spread the name of G-d throughout the world.

In the current 'Jewish' state, there is complete democratic freedom for all sorts of crazy ideas, except for Judaism alone which is declared illegal. In Israel today, the Torah's solution to security problems is racist, the Torah's views on international relations are incitement, and anyone who supports the Torah's opinion over the laws of the state is an anarchist. Those who struggle with love for the land of Israel are arrested and their homes are destroyed.

In the State of Israel today we have leaders who do not understand the Torah and no one dares explain to them what a true Jewish state looks like, why the Jewish people to the land of Israel, and what right the Jewish people have to the land. Not only are we victims of this unfortunate situation, but you are too - you, the judge, and the prosecutor. All of us are captives of this reality. Each of us has a G-dly soul that wants to live a Jewish life and we all feel alone in our opposition to the state.

Administrative detention orders were issued against me and other Jews not because of a concern for the good of the public as you [the government] have claimed. It is actually you who place no value on Jewish blood and thereby harm the public. You released terrorist murderers and removed checkpoints, both of which have placed many Jews in danger. One could hardly accuse you of caring for other Jews.

We all know that the incident in Duma is merely being used as an excuse for dictatorial actions by a supposed democratic government. Fortunately for you, the public is so accustomed to your lies that they don't bother refuting them.

Not for nothing did you gather all of the media to inform them before carrying out the orders. In truth the administrative detention orders are not meant to silence me, but to silence yourselves, to silence the Jewish voice emanating from your heart.

Your hysterical actions and discrimination against Jews in enforcing the law, your shocking neglect for the values of democracy when dealing with Jews who love the land of Israel, appears strange to many people. However it is not strange to anyone who recognizes that these actions are done in order to silence your inner, yearning Jewish voice. This is part of your general schizophrenia. It is obvious that these actions will backfire and have the opposite result. You will not manage to silence the voice inside you, anymore than you could expel your Jewish soul from your body. In the end, even you will repent for your actions and your Jewish soul will take over to help bring the redemption.

From Israel: WOW and WOW AGAIN!

May 10, 2018

The head spins: things are happening so quickly. But it's a good spin. A great spin.

~~~~~~~~~~

Let me back-track just a bit.

Two days ago, when last I wrote, intelligence indicated the likelihood that there would soon be an attack by Iran launched from Syria; it was expected that local militia and associated Shiite groups would be utilized to give Iran deniability.

No sooner had I hit the "send" button, then there was word of unusual activity spotted in Syria; orders went out for the air raid shelters on the Golan Heights to be opened.

The very next report, very shortly thereafter, was of an explosion in Syria, in the Al-Kiswah region south of Damascus, where there was a base that housed Iranian forces; missile silos and rocket launchers were hit and some eight Iranians were killed.

Here we have a picture of the fire outside Damascus as a result of that hit:

base attacked

Twitter

~~~~~~~~~~

Until now, it has not been Israeli practice to acknowledge these hits directly, but the game has changed.

What apparently happened is that launchers were pulled out of hiding on the base, so they could be used in an attack on Israel. But Israel took them out before they could be used.

That was pretty neat. This preemptive strike once again sent a message to the Iranians that we're watching every step.

In connection with this, various individuals cited the Talmudic dictum regarding self-defense: "If someone comes to kill you, rise up early in the morning and kill him first."

~~~~~~~~~~

That was Tuesday night, and on Wednesday morning, Intelligence Minister Yisrael Katz (Likud) made a statement (emphasis added):

Iran, he explained, "threatened—both in public and through messengers—to hurt Israel…We both defend soldiers and civilians and act through intelligence and all of our capabilities to locate and prevent (attacks) in advance

"…"only strikes now, today, could prevent violence and wars tomorrow. The Iranians don't understand any other language."

https://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-5255423,00.html

~~~~~~~~~~

What also happened yesterday is that Prime Minister Netanyahu made one of his not infrequent trips to Russia to consult with President Putin. Before going, Netanyahu had indicated that all of these visits were important, but this was especially the case this time.

Yesterday was Victory Day in Russia, celebrating the Russian military victory over the Nazis, and Netanyahu participated in the Victory Parade.

It was a bit strange to see this in video casts, especially as the parade showcased the military equipment used to protect Syrian President Assad. But Hatikvah was one of the anthems played at the event and Netanyahu was treated with full respect.

Here you see Netanyahu with Putin to his left. To his right is Ze'ev Elkin, Minister of Jerusalem Affairs; Russian-speaking because he was born in the Ukraine, he travels with the prime minister to Russia. To Netanyahu's his far right is Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic, the other head of state who was present at the celebrations.

Netanyahu did have time alone with Putin in the Kremlin after this event, and I think the look on his face here tells it all.

Bibi Putin

SERGEI ILNITSKY/AFP

Drawing on the theme of Russian victory over the Nazis, our prime minister told Putin that: "It is hard to believe, but 73 years after the Holocaust there is a country in the Middle East, Iran, which is calling for the destruction of six million Jews."

https://www.timesofisrael.com/netanyahu-tells-putin-iran-wants-to-carry-out-another-holocaust/

In a press briefing after the meeting, he said, "I wanted to clarify to the Russians what our considerations were in the various operations in Syria."

He indicated that there was no reason to believe that Moscow would limit Israel's freedom of action in Syria.

~~~~~~~~~~

By last night, the situation had escalated in our north. Once again warnings were directed to the Golan. As an alarm went off in the region, there were admonitions to use the bomb shelters.

This time, as 30 Iranian rockets were launched towards Israel we did not have a chance to do a pre-emptive action. All prior expectations aside, the launching was by Iranian Al-Quds forces and not by proxies.

However, not a single one of those rockets hit in Israel: Four were headed towards the Golan and were repelled by Iron Dome. The rest fell short and landed in Syria.

There were no casualties on Israel's side; no damage was caused; and no hits were identified in Israeli territory.

I think this was a real WOW.

~~~~~~~~~~

But this was just the beginning of the night's events:

In one of its biggest operations in decades, the IDF launched a four-hour attack on dozens of Iranian and Al-Quds Force military targets in Syria.

Targets included intelligence sites; logistics commands; a military compound and logistics complex; an observation post; and weapons. Included was the launcher used for the attack last night.

All Israeli planes returned safely to base.

http://www.jewishpress.com/news/middle-east/syria/israel-retaliates-30-rocket-barrage-with-4-hour-raid-on-dozens-of-iranian-military-targets-in-syria/2018/05/10/

~~~~~~~~~~

Defense Minister Avigdor Lieberman, speaking at the Herzliya conference today, declared that:

"We have hit almost all the Iranian infrastructure in Syria."

How's that for a WOW?

Lieberman

He further said (emphasis added):

"We will not allow Iran to turn Syria into a frontline base for activity against Israel. This is our clear policy, and we follow it."

"If we have [missiles] rain[ing], they will have a flood…

"First of all, it needs to be clear: Unlike the Iranians, we aren't attempting to expand, and we're not trying to create a new border. The one who is constantly trying to expand and create new conditions for itself is Iran. And not just when it comes to Israel - we see them working in Yemen, in Lebanon, and in Africa.

"We do our best to ensure the security of Israel's citizens. We have no interest in conquering Syria or interfering in what's happening over there. We have no interest in escalation, but we need to prepare ourselves for every possibility.

"We are now facing a new reality, one in which Iran, as Iran, is trying to attack Israel, to harm our territory. And it won't happen."

http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/245735

~~~~~~~~~~

The last statement above is of considerable significance. We have reached a new stage in Israel's interaction with Iran.

I will note here that Russia, which had been informed prior to this military action, did not interfere. The timing of the events described immediately above is obviously not a coincidence.

~~~~~~~~~~

In addition to WOW, I believe it's important to say BARUCH HASHEM: THANK GOD. The Almighty is with us.

We have some tough days ahead, but we are going to be OK.

~~~~~~~~~~~

I had hoped to discuss Trump's actions regarding the Iran deal in this post. There was, in any event, much yet to say. And even more so is this the case now, with regard to our military confrontation with Iran. We'll get to it.

Trump's intention is to fatally weaken the malevolent Iranian regime via very stringent economic sanctions. This, obviously, will be a factor in what we have to deal with here.

See this piece in the NYPost:

"By withdrawing from the agreement, Trump unshackled America's most powerful economic weapons and restored US leverage to push back on the entire range of Iran's malign activities."

https://nypost.com/2018/05/08/trump-now-needs-to-bring-irans-economy-to-its-knees/

~~~~~~~~~~

Tomorrow is Friday, which means it is "Gaza fence day." There is a shift now in the manner in which the IDF will handle the "protestors" who send kites with incendiary devices into Israel, with intention of starting fires.

On Wednesday, Public Security Minister Gilad Erdan (Likud) said the army now has orders to treat them as terrorists.

http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/245668

At last. Let's hope this makes a difference.

~~~~~~~~~~

We have an incredible week coming up:

Sunday is Jerusalem Day. A day later the US Embassy will be officially opened in Jerusalem. These are reasons for great joy and thanksgiving.

At the same time, it is "Nakba Day" – which the Palestinian Arabs treat as a time of tragedy because of the founding of the Jewish state. They are planning on making the maximum furor possible.

I will do my best in reporting on all counts.

~~~~~~~~~~

Once again I feel moved to end with a song. This is Tov Lehodot Lashem. It is good to give thanks to the Almighty.

Here a spirited version with Rabbi Lazer Brody (on the left) and Shmuel Katz.
