        Good morning!

        I didn’t know that your diet allowed for bread.

        (I almost never have bread, personally. BH, I don’t particularly enjoy challah. It’s very helpful to me. I DO have my two slices of cake on Shabbos. I eat them very slowly and savor every single mouthful.)

    A student nurse accused of taking a homemade bomb to the Leeds hospital he worked at has appeared in court.

    Mohammad Farooq was said to have the device outside the maternity ward of St James’s Hospital on 20 January.

    Mr Farooq, 27, who was also said to have undertaken reconnaissance outside an RAF base, appeared at Westminster Magistrates’ Court accused of
    preparing a terrorist act.

    He did not enter a plea and is due to appear at the Old Bailey on 3 February.

    Prosecutors allege Mr Farooq, of Hetton Road, Roundhay, Leeds, was found with a pressure cooker bomb outside the ward.

    They also argue that, inspired by radical Islam, he carried out “hostile reconnaissance” of an RAF base in Yorkshire in January. ”

            Hashem is exceedingly kind.

    Physician Who Doesn’t Believe in Dieting Joins Biden Admin.

    A physician who came under fire for comments claiming that obesity is more genetic than lifestyle is now a member of the Biden USDA’s 2025 Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committee — which will, ironically, change dieting for Americans over the coming years.

    Dr. Fatima Cody Stanford, a doctor specializing in obesity, claims diet and exercise have little impact.

    “The number one cause of obesity is genetics,” she said.

    “That means that, if you were born to parents that have obesity, you have a 50 to 85% likelihood of having the disease yourself even with optimal diet, exercise, sleep management, stress management,” she added.

    Dvar Torah: Chief Rabbi Ephraim Mirvis

    Were we liberated from one form of servitude, only to enter another? In Parshat Bo, the Torah describes how Hashem commanded Moshe to appear before Pharaoh, King of
    Egypt. There he demanded in Hashem’s name (Shemot (Exodus) 9:1):

    “Shalach et ami veya’avduni!” – “Let my
    people go so that they shall serve me!”

    Thanks to the miraculous intervention of Hashem we were redeemed from servitude in Egypt and, seven weeks later at Mount Sinai, we embraced a life full of Torah and mitzvot – an existence filled with servitude to Hashem.

    Some people might wonder: what kind of freedom is this? Are we so free if there is a long list of do’s and don’ts that we must comply with at all times?

    The Talmud (Ethics of the Fathers 6:2) puts it as follows:
    “Ein lecha ben chorin eileh mi sheosek baTalmud Torah.” – “There is actually no-one who is as free as the person who studies Torah.”
    How can we understand this? One of my favorite quotations, which is anonymous, goes as follows: “The slave to the compass has freedom of the seas. The rest must sail close to the shore.”

    The Torah is our compass. The Torah provides us with an opportunity to lead lives of meaning and joy. There is so much room for individuality and spontaneity within the context of the 613 do’s and don’ts of the Torah. Every responsible educator and parent knows how crucially important it is to raise our children to reach their own personal potential; to be able to achieve what they can as unique personalities within the context of a loving and
    healthy discipline. Without such discipline, without any inspirational compass, it is
    possible for a person to abuse their freedom and for their lives to be filled with mayhem.

    We have so much to be grateful for. Thanks to
    the freedom that we attained when we left Egypt we were able at Sinai to receive the Torah and thanks to the Torah, we can utilise our freedom responsibly because the Torah is our eternally true and inspirational guide and compass.

    A Night of Transformation

    The celebration of Pesach, and particularly the Seder night as described in Parshas Bo, is marked by stark contrasts. In the days of the Beis Hamikdash (Temple), the night of Pesach centered around the eating of the korban Pesach (Passover offering). There are two seemingly contradictory themes that emerge from how the korban Pesach is eaten.

    Its meat must be roasted rather than cooked since roasted meat was a sign of wealth and royalty. Similarly, the meat must not be left over as such a practice would resemble one who can’t afford fresh meat the following day.

    Bones of the korban Pesach may not be broken since this is something one who lacks enough meat would usually do. The Sefer Hachinuch (in mitzvos 7,8, and 16) elaborates upon how observing these intricacies of halacha (Jewish law) creates the mindset of our state of royalty as the nation of Hashem.
    Even as we celebrate our exalted status on Pesach night, we perform mitzvos that invoke a very different image of ourselves.

    Accompanying the korban Pesach we partake
    of matza and marror (bitter herbs). Matza is referred to as lechem oni – a poor man’s bread. We highlight an existence of poverty and suffering even as we celebrate our newfound freedom. This aspect of matza is so essential that we introduce the matza at the seder by declaring “Ha lachma anya”- this is a poor man’s bread.

    Completing the mitzvos of eating on Pesach night is the obligation to partake of marror, which is the ultimate reminder of the bitterness of our lives as slaves prior to being redeemed on this very night.

    Freedom and slavery, wealth and poverty, not only permeate the mitzvos of Pesach, Matza, and Marror but the mitzva of sippur yetzias Mitzrayim (telling the story of the Exodus) revolves around these very themes as well. We are taught by Chazal (an acronym for our Sages of blessed memory), that the Torah commandment of telling the story of yetzias
    Mitzrayim at the seder must include beginning with how lowly we were, both physically and spiritually, as slaves, and culminating in the glory bestowed upon us. The actual mitzvos as well as our entire discussion on this night encompass this theme of transformation.

    Such a change in our existence, from those who survived on mere matza and tasted the bitterness of slavery to becoming a royal nation, should mentally take a great deal of time; perhaps generations would have to pass before a glorious nation could emerge. Yet, Hashem performed this transformation in literally the blink of an eye.
    The symbolism of a downtrodden suffering people
    all of a sudden celebrating as the beloved royal nation of Hashem has great meaning for us both personally and nationally.

    Situations that appear bleak and hopeless can turn around in a moment. Personal suffering and pain can be transformed instantaneously to joy. Over the course of generations Jews have often sat down to
    the Seder in the most difficult circumstances. What gave our people the strength to celebrate the first Pesach after the Beis Hamikdash was destroyed? From where did Jews get the inspiration to perform a Seder knowing that the dangers of a blood libel could be upon them at any moment? How were Jews able to find the faith to commemorate the night of redemption from Mitzrayim even as they were suffering during the horrors of the Holocaust?
    It was the Seder night that kept alive the dream of nobility of the Jewish people. Just as matza and marror gave way to korban Pesach over three thousand years ago, so too Klal Yisrael (Congregation of Israel)
    will emerge from galus (exile) and once again return to the Beis Hamikdash to partake of the korban Pesach and celebrate its glorious destiny.

    As we read Parshas Bo, although still several months away from Pesach, let us focus on the dream of geula (redemption) that we eagerly wait for at any moment.

    Parshas Bo

    Adapted by Rabbi Jonathan Sacks ZTL; From the teachings of the Lubavitcher Rebbe ZTL.

    Two unusual features distinguish the tenth plague—the smiting of the Egyptian firstborn—from the other nine that G-d brought against the Egyptians. Firstly, Moses announced the specific time that it would take place (“about midnight”), and secondly, the Israelites themselves were commanded to take precautions against the plague afflicting them—they were to stay indoors, and set a sign, in blood, on their doorposts. The Rebbe explains why these features were attached only to this plague, and how they indicate to us the path that we must follow to bring about the redemption of the future—the Messianic Age.

    1. The Time and the Precautions

    When Moses announced to Pharaoh the coming of the final plague, the smiting of the firstborn, he mentioned the time that it would occur. G-d had said that it would take place at midnight. Moses said that it would be at “about midnight,”1 fearing that Pharaoh’s astrologers might make a mistake in their calculations of the precise fixing of midnight and might accuse him of inaccuracy.2 Nonetheless, this raises a difficulty. Why was the timing of the plague mentioned at all? The mere warning of its imminence would surely have been sufficient, as it was in the case of the other nine plagues. We are forced to conclude that there is a special and significant connection between the plague of smiting the firstborn and the time of midnight, so that in mentioning one, Moses had to mention the other.

    In two further ways, the tenth plague was unique.

    Firstly, the Jews had to make a special sign “on the two doorposts and the lintel”3 of their houses, a sign in the blood of circumcision and of the Paschal lamb,4 so that the plague would not be visited on them.

    Secondly, they had to remain indoors throughout the night: “And none of you shall go out from the entrance of his house until the morning,” because “once the force of destruction is given permission (to unleash itself) it makes no distinction between the righteous and the wicked.”5

    But why should these provisions have been necessary? The previous plagues had been directed solely against the Egyptians, without the Israelites needing to take any special precautions to preserve their immunity. Why was the tenth plague different in this respect? And why were two precautions (the sign of the blood, and the confinement to their houses) needed?

    2. The Uniqueness of the Final Plague

    We can approach an answer by first understanding that the other nine plagues were not of the kind whereby “the force of destruction is given permission (to unleash itself).” They were limited to a specific manner and extent of damage. The hail, for example, destroyed “the flax and the barley… but the wheat and the spelt were not smitten because they were not grown up.”6 But the smiting of the firstborn was not limited to any specific manner of destruction; the force which “makes no distinction between the righteous and the wicked” was set loose—and therefore the Israelites had to guard themselves against it.

    At a deeper level, the smiting of the firstborn was unique in its purpose, not only in its manner. The other plagues were not primarily to destroy, but to create in the Egyptians an awareness of G-d: “In this you shall know that I am the L-rd.”7 And this was not a lesson that needed to be enforced amongst the Israelites, who already acknowledged G-d.8 It also meant that in the first nine plagues, those who were afflicted were not killed, so that they could benefit from this revelation of G-d’s power. But in the tenth plague, since the firstborn were killed, the aim could not have been (as regards the victims) to educate them. It was to punish and destroy them. And in this case the voice of strict justice could claim: What is the difference between the Israelites in their idolatry9 and degeneracy, and the Egyptian firstborn? Surely both deserve punishment? Hence the Israelites’ need to safeguard themselves against the force of destruction—the instrument of strict justice.

    These safeguards were of two orders. In Egypt generally, the force of destruction was “given permission” to loose itself. Since it is indiscriminate and has no limitations, no “sign” is a protection against it. Therefore the Israelites had to withdraw to their houses. Within them (since they were “passed over” by G-d) the plague was subject to a limitation—and so there was room (and necessity) for a “sign” which would single out Jew from Egyptian.

    3. Midnight and Essence

    But what is still difficult to understand is this: The voice of strict justice raised the question, “What is the difference” between a G-dless Egypt and a sinful Jewish people? How could a “sign” have answered the claim?

    The answer is that the tenth plague was executed by “G-d Himself in His glory and His essence,” G-d as He transcends characterization, in particular, as He is beyond the attribute of strict justice. At this level, the accusations brought in the name of severity and justice are silent, inoperative.

    This is the connection between the tenth plague and midnight. For midnight is the moment when this all-transcending face of G-d is revealed. Midnight binds the two halves of the night, the first half which leads from light into darkness and is therefore a symbol of severity and holding-back (gevurah), and the second which leads from darkness into light, and stands for kindness and giving-forth (chesed). And so, momentarily harmonizing these two opposing tendencies and thereby transcending them, midnight is the time at which G-d in His Essence is revealed.10

    Thus at the time of the tenth plague, G-d displayed his essential love for Israel, a love which in its infinity finds no place for the accusations of the voice of justice. When the voice claims, “Was not Esau Jacob’s brother?” (Are they not equal?) G-d answers, “Yet I loved Jacob and I hated Esau.”11 For His love for the Jewish people is as deep and invulnerable as the love of a father for his children: “You are the children of the L-rd your G-d.”12

    This is why Moses told Pharaoh the time of the plague (“about midnight”). In this, he was hinting that it would be brought about by G-d in His transcendence. For otherwise Pharaoh and his court would have been convinced that a plague whose purpose was to destroy and not to educate, would afflict the Israelites as well, since they too were guilty of sins. Only a revelation of G-d’s unconditional love (i.e., at midnight) would have saved them.

    4. Sign and Love

    Why, though, did the Israelites still need a sign?

    The answer is that to draw down into the physical world a revelation of G-d, man must perform acts of service, the acts which are specified in the Torah. Even G-d’s unconditional love, which is always present and constant, requires an active response by the Jew if he is to internalize it and bring it into openness of revelation. But in this case, since the love is unconditional, the response, too, must be unconditional—going beyond the limits of rationality.

    Both of the signs—the blood of circumcision and of the Paschal lamb—were of this character. The covenant of circumcision is performed on a Jewish child who is only eight days old, at an age when his faculty of reason is as yet undeveloped. It is a union between the Jew and G-d which goes beyond the rational. And the sacrifice of the Paschal lamb was at that time so fraught with danger as to constitute an act of self-sacrifice (mesirat nefesh). The lamb was an Egyptian deity. And not only were the Israelites to kill it, but they also had to keep it for four days beforehand with the full knowledge of the Egyptians. Self-sacrifice is never rational. And so the Paschal lamb was itself a sign of a Jewish response to G-d that surpassed reason.

    Therefore these two signs were answered by G-d with an act of supra-rational love—the love of midnight, of G-d’s Essence, of the delivery from the tenth plague.

    5. Faith and Reason

    Now we can resolve an apparent contradiction in the statements of the Rabbis as to the virtue in whose merit the Israelites were redeemed from Egypt. In one place, we find that it was their faith:13 “And the people believed, and when they heard that the L-rd had visited the children of Israel and that He had looked upon their affliction, they bowed their heads and worshipped.”14 In other places,15 it is stated that it was a reward for their signs of blood: “In your blood: Live.”16

    But the two opinions are one. The signs were of a bond between Jew and G-d surpassing reason. And their faith was one which went beyond reason. Before the redemption, “no slave had been able to escape from Egypt because the land was closely shut in (on all sides).”17 How much less reasonable was it to believe that 600,000 could escape, a people broken by the rigors of oppression, and threatened with extinction through Pharaoh’s decree that every male child be drowned. The pure faith with which the Israelites believed in Moses’ mission and G-d’s promised deliverance went far beyond the rational. And this faith aroused the unconditional love in G-d for His people, which constituted their inseparable bond. The signs by which it was then expressed, brought the revelation of G-d’s love down to this world.

    6. The Future Redemption

    “Like the days of your exodus from the land of Egypt, I will demonstrate wonders.”18 This means the future redemption will parallel the redemption of the past.

    The deliverance from Egypt was a reward for the supra-rational faith which was so internalized by the Israelites that it affected even their most extraneous powers (signified by the blood of circumcision) and even the non-human environment (the Paschal lamb).

    So, too, will the future redemption be a reward for faith—the faith which disregards the great concealments of G-d that our exile brings, and which still holds firm to the belief in the Messiah; a faith which does not hover at the outer edges of our minds, but which constitutes our most inward certainty and extends to every facet of our being.

      I read about this in high school. Many nations were complicit and actually ready and willing. It’s amazing that only Germany was seemingly taken to task for the Holocaust. Granted, Hitler and his henchmen were the architects of anti-Semitic genocide, but had there been resistance in France, Croatia and the other nations, the Holocaust may not have been quite as successful.

      I learned about this many years ago.

      My high school teacher was very thorough.
      Indeed, Norway, Romania, and many other countries were complicit.

      Germany, perfected the efficiency of murdering a tremendous amount of Jews in a relatively short period of time.

      There are many places where the ground still has a reddish color from the Jewish blood that was spilled.

    *Neve Yaakov Kedoshim (holy ones, in this context it specifically refers to those murdered for the nefarious crime of being Jewish): 14-Year-Old, Married Couple, Father Of 3 -*

    Two of the victims of the terror attack in Neve Yaakov on Friday night were a married couple, Eli, 48, h’yd (acronym for Hashem will avenge their blood), and Natali Mizrachi, h’yd, 45, who left their family Shabbos seudah (feast) in order to help the wounded victims and were shot to death.

    A fourth victim was Asher Natan, 14, h’yd. Nata, the oldest of eight siblings left his home shortly before the shooting began. When his father heard the shots, he ran out of the house to search for his son and found him among the murdered victims.

        I have heard that it is the subsonic sound that wind turbines create that is causing whale deaths.

          That is another acceptable theory that is floating around, I think that it is probably a combination of many problems caused by the creation and running of these farms.

          Many of the “environmentalists ” are in such a rush that they are bypassing the proper ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT ASSESSMENTS, which are part of the tons of EPA REGULATIONS

          The EPA is allowing their own regulations to be sidestepped with little to no enforcement.

          An extreme contrast with trying to do an oil and gas project, or building a refinery, where the red tape takes decades and projects are stopped over an endangered snail, cockroach, weed, etc……

            I doubt that sciecne has the knowledge or the ability to do a real environmental impact statement. It must fit within their known knowledge or they cannot make any determinations. Basically the un goal exceeds the environmental risks, just ask them. Science has a bad habit of making things that later becomes the next problem. It was science who invented the internal combustion engine and developed the oil fields. It was sciecnce who invented all the chemicals they now claim cause cancer.

            I am fairly sure that no scientists considered possible environmental problems . They don’t think that way. There was also no way to study the effects of fish before hand.

      Good morning WT!

      This topic came up a week and a half ago when I was studying Parshas Vaeirah in the book Toras Avigdor.
      Rabbi Avigdor Miller ZTL gave an enormous amount of lectures over the course of his lifetime which were taped.

      Because his teachings were so invaluable, they were transcribed.

      Toras Avigdor is not only a set of books on the Torah, but a pamphlet is sponsored and available for the taking in many Orthodox Jewish communities. They’re also taken from his transcriptions.
      I always make sure to pick up the weekly edition.

      (I purchased the Toras Avigdor set of books in the Spring. I’m still going through it.)

      Even prior to reading it, I had learned that there is a tremendous difference between wisdom and intelligence.
      He just took me for an even deeper dive into the bottomless and glorious ocean that is Torah.

      I am tremendously looking forward to hearing what Rabbi Lapin has to say about this topic.

      TYMK for tagging me to this.

      As always, I will let you know my thoughts, Be’Ezras Hashem!

      I am in no way, Heaven forbid minimizing the teachings of any other great sage. Toras Avigdor began when a meeting was held by a group of very enthusiastic men who emphatically, vehemently, and very enthusiastically felt that Rabbi Avigdor Miller ZTL’S teachings changed their lives.
      They brainstormed on how to share them with the world.
      That was the result…

      1. Weary Traveler

        In a funny way, Rabbi Lapin here sort of amplified George Carlin’s point how education isn’t always the answer.

        2. Proud Conservative Mom

          Indeed he did.
          That was another excellent show.

          I have one huge bone to pick, that I cannot begin to comprehend. I’ll address it at the end of my posting.

          Absolutely, having a high I.Q. is (or used to be, very critical in academia. I say that because “Dr.” Jill Biden is an example of what nonsense it is to a degree nowadays.)

          It is most definitely genetic. That’s factual.

          I know of many who went to trade schools and were very successful.
          For quite some time already, having a college degree doesn’t guarantee success.

          Absolutely, males are superior in portions of the Bell Curve.
          LOL, my almost 26 year old son, father, and one of my brothers-in-law, are phenomenal chess players.
          They’re all brilliant.

          Pilot Chesley Sullenberger, had a high I.Q. AND wisdom.
          Without having both, I opine the story wouldn’t have had a happy ending.

          Blacks overall, are not a smart group of people. There are absolutely exceptions.
          Justice Clarence Thomas is but one example.

          When my father taught remedial chemistry in college, ALL of his students were black.
          My father is exceedingly brilliant and has the ability to impart his wisdom to others.
          (He tutored me in algebra. I know from experience.)

          Affirmative action being forced down our throats, created a royal mess.
          I opine that this is when academia commenced to get really stupid.

          One needs wisdom to keep the five “F’s” in balance (faith, finances, family, friendship, and fitness). I.Q. alone is NOT even remotely sufficient.

          YES! Knowing how to nurture a marriage is about wisdom!
          That’s a fabulous example.

          Wokeism is trying to downplay the importance of wisdom.
          Progressivism a/k/a Wokeism became the new “religion.”

          Wisdom cannot be measured by anything physical.
          💯💯💯💯💯💯

          Indeed, wisdom takes everything into account. In fact in Pikei Avos (Tractate Avos) it says “Who is wise? Who who sees what will transpire.” In other words, one who contemplates what will be the end result of his actions, as much as humanly possible.
          It’s also about knowing when quick and decisive action is needed.
          That’s an example of leadership skills.

          TANACH is filled with anecdotes that illustrate this.
          Right off of my cuff, is how Pinchos (Phineas) killed Zimri (the head of the tribe of Shimon) and Kuzbi (a daughter of King Balak who was the king of Moav), when they were having sinful relations. He literally speared them both simultaneously.

          He was greatly and eternally rewarded by Hashem for that action.

          I’m very perturbed and horrified that he quoted a King James Bible to interpret the verse in Genesis.
          Putting aside that it is the most INACCURATE translation of TANACH, WHY for the love of Heaven would he do that?!

          There is NO Orthodox Jewish Rabbi that I know who would ever dream of doing such a thing.
          He would simply translate the verse.
          Orthodox Jewish Rabbis are absolutely 💯 percent fluent in Biblical Hebrew.
          He also could have recommended an accurately translated book by Orthodox Jews.

          I’m seriously shaking my head about this.
          This is “Strike Two”, if he really steps into any Church.

          I honestly don’t know what to say.
          I would love an explanation from him.

          You know that I am always extremely honest.
          These things matter.

          I’m completely befuddled and bamboozled.

          He was absolutely spot on regarding everything else.

          That being said, these details really matter.
          Sigh. 😑🧐

          1. Weary Traveler

            I notice a lot of Christians comment on his videos. If I had to guess, and that’s all it is, is a “know your audience” thing, but I agree about not quoting KJV. It doesn’t do them or yourself any favors to do so. I would actually go as far as avoiding the Gospels altogether, but that’s me.

            I actually get upset when politicians use “conversational language”, which has them misusing words when talking to large audiences. It does no one any favors. Do you remember when I hammer Mike Pence during the VP debate when he said “Americans are sacrificial”? I latched on that one like a lamprey.

            Yes, we have spoken a lot about Wokeism being a religion. I think many of noticed the similarities, hence a big reason Christianity has shrank since the COVID lockdowns.

            And yes, sadly having a college degree guarantees success a lot less than it did before the schools decided to start shoving everyone in to colleges regardless.

            I actually have a Marty story about that I will have to share, but I am actually waiting on him right now as we are set to got to Panera for a bit.

            Our whole education system is a huge mess from Kindergarten all the way up to post graduate. And the ones benefiting are politicians and the ones working for the institutions.

          2. Proud Conservative Mom

            AGREED.
            It does NO ONE any favors.

            Absolutely, he should not talk about the Gospels.
            Good grief! 😡😡😡
            The handful of shows that you sent me didn’t have him doing that, hence my query.

            Has he ever quoted Christian doctrine?
            Using a Christian source for a “translation” is bad enough.

            When Orthodox Jewish Rabbis such as the ones who do anti-missionary work quote it, it’s to disprove it and to explain why.

            “Do you remember when I hammer Mike Pence during the VP debate when he said “Americans are sacrificial”? I latched on that one like a lamprey.”

            You betcha!

            “I actually have a Marty story about that I will have to share, but I am actually waiting on him right now as we are set to got to Panera for a bit.”

            Please send him my best. I cannot wait to hear it! LOL!

            “Our whole education system is a huge mess from Kindergarten all the way up to post graduate. And the ones benefiting are politicians and the ones working for the institutions.”

            BINGO.

          3. Weary Traveler

            Okay… That Marty story. This one isn’t one of his usual HA HA ones, but a good illustration of corruption in public/government schools.

            Unlike me, he was very academically inclined. In other words, and only in this respect, he was an Asian parent’s dream kid. If he got anything less than an A, it was because he was struggling with the topic. So I had told him how I was encouraged to do vocational classes at a local vocational school that would count as 3 electives.

            His school district in Long Island offered the same thing, and he came across one of the pamphlets and was very interested in checking it out. So he brought it up to his guidance counselor who, unlike mine, did everything to dissuade him from taking the vocational courses, because Marty was in the College prep courses. Marty even demonstrated how his GPA was more than high enough, that the vocational classes would not hurt his chances of getting in to a good college, and how he thought it would be good for him to also have a skill in a trade, and still the counselor wouldn’t go for it.

            The counselor admitted to Marty that it costs the school district $18,000 to send a student there, since the district ends up paying for it. As it is, the school gets twice that for every student. The only reason the schools will agree to lose that amount for some students, like myself vs. other students like Marty, it is the only way they were able to put us through and we could still graduate. So it is all about the numbers to make the district look good.

            Which is interesting, because that is very similar to what the “Hard Harry” character was talking about when discussing the corruption in the school in the movie, Pump Up The Volume. Only it was worse than even that, because they were expelling students who were struggling, just to keep their scores up so that they could continue to boast high achievement.

            Seems anyway you cut it, they really do not care at all about the kids. It reminds me of a statement the head of a teacher’s union made years ago, where he stated something to the effect of; “when school kids start paying union dues, I’ll start caring about school kids.”

            And, the episode of American Thought Leaders we were watching tonight, talking about how schools in RED STATES have gone around the ban on Critical Race Theory, just by changing wording and definitions.

            It’s time to put an end to government schools at all levels. The system is way too corrupt.

            “Seems anyway you cut it, they really do not care at all about the kids. It reminds me of a statement the head of a teacher’s union made years ago, where he stated something to the effect of; “when school kids start paying union dues, I’ll start caring about school kids.””

            BINGO.

            What a crazy story regarding Marty. It’s all about the numbers. Absolutely.
            These people are totally evil.

          5. Weary Traveler

            I almost forgot, because I let myself get way too sidetracked with the Marty story, and ranting about how corrupt our education system is.

            And that is the point about the Gospels. I may be one of few who is not Jewish that can have any level of understanding for your position, and why. For instance, I have a problem with the term “Judaeo-Christian” because the two could not be more diametrically opposed. But this yet another example of conventional conversational language.

            The only validity I can see behind the term is that Christianity is so reliant on Judaism as their bible consists of both Tanach, and the gospels, what they refer to as the “old” and “new testaments.” Although I would argue the “Old Testament of their bible is highly editorialized. So on the other hand, I see how the term could actually be an indictment of Christianity.

            Although I have learned in both a business sense, as well as many years working in broadcasting, about knowing your audience, and speaking their language. But I was never able to take that to the extent others would. Some so much further than others that they were disingenuous.

            I can share many stories of talk show hosts and DJs who followed certain pop culture trends they didn’t even really care for themselves, because they wanted to be more relatable. They weren’t bad people themselves, but I had more than my own fair share of debates with them. Probably why I was never put on the air outside of doing news reads and traffic and weather reports. I wasn’t a good “team player”, and therefore bad for business.

            The only other side of it, for me anyway… And I ask myself this a lot lately, given my own sour attitude about so many things in life of late, and not all without just cause, mind you. I worry for myself that if I am not careful, I will start acting like the left, and cancelling people for minor infractions.

            It’s not just Fauci, for instance, that I want to see put in front of a firing squad. Even the the idiots I saw today that are still wearing masks in public. Even though they don’t say anything to me, and they’re in the minority now, I still see red and give them the stink eye, and want to deal them the same fate as I do someone like Fauci.

            Like, if there were no consequences for my actions, it would be like I was in one of those Grand Theft Auto video games, where I would just beat the person down to a bloody pulp, and then rob them = charging them a reparation/stupid tax. LOL

          6. Proud Conservative Mom

            “And that is the point about the Gospels. I may be one of few who is not Jewish that can have any level of understanding for your position, and why. ”

            Indeed you ARE!

            “For instance, I have a problem with the term “Judaeo-Christian” because the two could not be more diametrically opposed. But this yet another example of conventional conversational language.”

            CORRECT. The two religions are diametrically opposed.

            I have always loathed the term Judeaeo-Christian. It’s moronic and makes as much sense as “The Walrus and The Carpenter.”

            Honestly, the Christian Bible really monkeys around with the “quoting” of TANACH.
            In fact, it turned TANACH into a theological crime scene of epic proportions in order to serve their narrative.

            Verses were purposefully translated or completely made up.
            They also quoted only parts of certain verses in order to conceal the meaning of the verse.

            Of of the cuff:
            Hosea 14:1-2 (KJV) ” O Israel, return unto the LORD thy God;thou hast fallen by thine iniquity. Take with you words, and turn to the LORD: say unto him, Take away all iniquity, and receive us graciously: so will we render the calves of our lips. (a)
            a) 14.2 receive…: or, give good

            The real translation: “Return, O Israel, to the Lord your God, for you have stumbled in your iniquity. Take words with yourselves and return to the Lord. Say, “You shall forgive all iniquity and teach us [the] good [way], and let us render [for] bulls [the offering of] our lips.”

            What do bulls symbolize? Offerings that were brought in the Temple that we couldn’t bring once it was destroyed.
            PRAYER took the place of offerings in our exile.

            Do you see how the Christian Bible purposefully convoluted and destroyed that message?

            That’s their Modus Operandi.

            “I wasn’t a good “team player”, and therefore bad for business.”

            You had and have integrity.

    The cost to fuel electric vehicles in the United States is higher than gas-powered cars for the first time in 18 months, a consulting company said.

    “In Q4 2022, typical mid-priced ICE (Internal Combustion Engine) car drivers paid about $11.29 to fuel their vehicles for 100 miles of driving. That cost was around $0.31 cheaper than the amount paid by mid-priced EV drivers charging mostly at home, and over $3 less than the cost borne by comparable EV drivers charging commercially,” Anderson Economic Group (AEG) said in an analysis.

      Due to the dirty manufacturing processes and the fact that the electricity comes from a carbon based source, an EV must stay on the road for ten years without a battery change to see a carbon offset.

      The batteries for these vehicles are reported to last beyond that; however, I believe those numbers to be fraudulent , I would guess they are good for 5 years on the average.

      The fact that they are so expensive to purchase, maintain and to charge , they are a poor choice at this time.

            For certain.

            In the spiritual world, the stakes are far greater.
            The goal is to snatch as many opportunities as one can, to perform Mitzvos.

            Of course, one has to make a living.

            One would be surprised if they knew how many Mitzvos one can amass even on the job.

            The Yetzer Horah obviously, does not want a person to amass Mitzvos.
            He’s a very formidable foe.
            He CAN be put in his place.

            Hashem would never ask for the impossible.

            Nobody ever writes a computer program from the beginning. It is a total mess and has bugs all over the place. So you start by breaking the program apart and whenever you come to a branching issue you create a skeleton to say – I need to solve this part but will do it later. You keep doing this until you get to a trivial solution and you solve that, then work backward to the previous branch and do the same.

            Never solve a hard problem, just rip the problem apart until the solution is trivial

    New – Israel’s government to discuss denying ID to families of terrorists

    ‘We are not looking for escalation but we are prepared for any possibility. Our answer to terrorism is a heavy hand and a powerful, quick and accurate response’

    Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said during Sunday’s cabinet meeting that the government would discuss denying identity cards and residency to families of terrorists.

    “Yesterday, the cabinet approved a series of measures to fight terrorism,” Netanyahu continued. “This morning, we sealed off the house of the terrorist who carried out the attack in Jerusalem, and later his house will be destroyed.” He also noted that the government decided to deny national social security to families who “support terrorism.”

    “Today, the government will discuss two additional measures: denying identity cards and residency to families of terrorists who support terrorism. At the same time, we are expanding and speeding up weapons licensing to thousands of Israeli citizens. This also includes the rescue services.”

    Antibiotic Resistance Due to Anti-Depressant Overuse

    Bacteria evolves as more antidepressants are readily available.

    Researcher Jianhua Gao has studied removing contaminants from wastewater and the environmental dimensions of antimicrobial resistance.

    One of those dimensions is the overuse of antibiotics, which promotes resistance to these drugs. Antibiotic resistance is an enormous threat to human health. But antidepressants also caused a problem, too.

      According to the left it is racist if: a black is killed by white cops , a black is killed by black cops; using their illogical narrative it is also racist if a white is killed by white cops, so all police killings must be racist, OR it is okay for whites to be killed. Recently there was a video of a man being shot multiple times by the police in his Mobile home, the video was very clear since it was taken from the victims home security system camera that was right by the victim.He was white, so we hear little of it; I would post the video, but it is very graphic.

        Leftism has no logic.
        It is evil and depraved.

        A white is guilty unless proven to be innocent. Even then, he has to make a Herculean effort to prove his case where the evidence is overwhelmingly on his side.

          Most blacks are killed by blacks and most whites are killed by blacks, but, but, but, white supremacy and whites are “hunting black people”.

          During an encounter with the police, a WHITE has a higher risk of being killed by the police, facts and statistics do not support their narrative.

    Hat tip my friend Chaya

    Dear Friends & Family

    Have you ever asked yourself:  What really died at Auschwitz? 

    Here’s an interesting viewpoint.

    The following is a copy of an article written by Spanish writer Sebastian Vilar Rodriguez and published in a Spanish newspaper.  

    It doesn’t take much imagination to extrapolate the message to the rest of Europe – and possibly to the rest of the world.

    I walked down the streets in Barcelona and suddenly discovered a terrible truth:  Europe died in Auschwitz …..

    We killed six  million Jews and replaced them with 20 million Muslims.  In Auschwitz we burned a group of people who represented culture, thought, creativity, talent.  We destroyed the chosen people, truly chosen, because they produced great and wonderful people, who made great contributions to the world, and thus changed the world.

    The contribution of today’s Jewish people is felt in all areas of life:  science, art, international trade, and above all, as the conscience of the world.  Look at any donors’ board at any symphony, art museum, theater, art gallery, science center, etc.  You will see many Jewish surnames.  These are the people who were burned.  Of the 6,000,000 who died, how many would have grown up to be gifted musicians, doctors, artists, philanthropists?

    And under the pretense of tolerance, and because we wanted to prove to ourselves that we were cured of the diseases of racism and bigotry, Europe opened our gates to 20 million Muslims, who brought us stupidity and ignorance, religious extremism and lack of tolerance, crime and poverty, due to an unwillingness to work and support their families with pride.

    They have blown up our trains and turned our beautiful Spanish cities into the third world, drowning in filth and crime.  Shut up in the apartments they receive free from the government, they plan the murder and destruction of their naive hosts.

    And thus, in our misery, we have exchanged culture for fanatical hatred, creative skill for destructive skill, intelligence for backwardness and superstition.  We have exchanged the pursuit of peace of the Jews of Europe and their talent for a better future for their children, their determined clinging to life because life is holy, for those who pursue death, for people consumed by the desire for death for themselves and others, for our children and theirs.

    What a terrible mistake was made by miserable Europe.

    Recently, the UK debated whether to remove The Holocaust from its school curriculum because it ‘offends’ the Muslim population, which claims it never occurred.  It is not removed as yet.  However, this is a frightening portent of the fear that is gripping the world and how easily each country is giving in to it.

    It is now approximately seventy years after the Second World War in Europe ended.  This e-mail is being sent as a memorial chain, in memory of the six million Jews, twenty million Russians, ten million Christians, and nineteen-hundred Catholic priests who were murdered, raped, burned, starved, beaten, experimented on, and humiliated.  Now, more than ever–with Iran, among others, claiming the Holocaust to be ‘a myth’–it is imperative to make sure the world “never forgets.”

    This e-mail is intended to reach 400 million people.  Be a link in the memorial chain, and help distribute this around the world.

    How many years will it be before the attack on the World Trade Center ‘NEVER HAPPENED’ because it offends some Muslim in the United States?  

    Please do not just delete this message.  It will take only a minute to pass this along.  We must wake up the world before it’s too late

    @nicetomeetyou2:disqus

    Hat tip Michoel Brooke (The Motivation Congregation).

    When the Jewish People were redeemed, they had sank to the 49th level of impurity.
    Had they sank to the 50th level, they couldn’t have been saved.

    The Kotzker Rebbe ZTL asked what was the tremendous difference between the 49th level and the 50th? The 50th, was a level where they had complete yayush (despair) without any semblance of hope.

    A person cannot proceed any further in life if they are completely hopeless.

    My mother taught this to me when she got sick when I was 15.
    She said it is forbidden for a Jew to have complete yayush.

    With Hashem involved, the word impossible doesn’t exist.

    *************************

    I heard Rabbi Elimelech Biderman speak last week. (I’m subscribed to a WhatsApp chat that has Divrei Torah from him.) I cannot recollect the source that he quoted, unfortunately.
    He asked why did Hashem wait for us to sink so low? He then had to rush us out in a hurry?

    It was to show that a person can sink very low, but can always pick himself up and rise to great heights.

    (FYI, BH, because we have the Torah, the Jewish People can never again sink to such a low spiritual level again.)

    1. bill smith

      The having ha tikvah is the key…. and reducing to minus 49 should produce a rebound to positive 49…. a higher level than the vast majority.

      1. Proud Conservative Mom

        Having hope is essential.
        Without hope, it’s impossible to function.

        In fact, I gave a real Mussar Shmuz to a doctor who was very knowledgeable. I thought the world of him.

        When he gave me the diagnosis of global diffuse adenomyosis, he told me that there is nothing that could be done for it.

        I very politely let him have it. I told him that he said that he’s a Modern Orthodox Jew (not the same as the wacko Modox of today). I told him that one cannot leave a patient with zero hope whatsoever. I asked him if he still believes in Hashem. Who said that I have to live the rest of my life in Hell on Earth?! With Hashem, nothing is impossible.

        (I am very much my mother’s daughter. When she received her CML diagnosis in 1987 and had no bone marrow match, the doctor told her to put her affairs in order because in two and a half years she would be gone. She was so sick, but told the doctor: “How dare you tell me when I am going to die?! That is in G-d’s jurisdiction alone. If you don’t fight this illness with me, I will find a doctor who will.” My father was with her when she made that declaration.

        My father always taught me as well, to always query medical professionals regarding all details of my protocol and the reasoning for it. Unfortunately, so many are not willing to ask questions or are afraid to do so.)

        Regarding what you stated, a catapult of that velocity is not common. Sometimes it takes steps to get there and one has to be patient. Of course, that’s not an easy thing to do.

        The Jewish People were gifted with a catapult of that magnitude at Har Sinai (Mt. Sinai) when they said that they would do and hear, before even knowing what the Mitzvos were.

        Tragically, they fell tremendously after the sin of the Golden Calf.

        Every person has the ability to catapult himself and become very great.

        Sometimes in life we have to create a solution for a plan that hasn’t been working.
        My father wore many hats. He was a scientist and relayed scenarios that happened to him where he had to go back to the drawing board.
        I inadvertently forgot to mention that earlier.

        Life is a learning process.
        As mortals, we will experience failure.
        That’s okay (albeit it is frustrating).

        One puts in their efforts and if they’re wise, 🦉 they’ll ask for Hashem’s assistance.

        Realize that sometimes despite Herculean efforts put in, some things don’t work out.

        My parents always instilled in us that as long as you gave it your all and tried your best, they would always be very proud of us.
        And so it was, and still is.

        The bottom line is, that not everything is meant to be.
        That’s very painful at times to deal with, but that’s the reality.

            We would pull in to the space in reverse and watch the movie from the bed of the truck. That was back when you could still legally ride in the back bed of a pickup truck around here. That was always fun. Especially at night. I miss those carefree days.

    I’m not mentioning this for fanfare, but for a purpose.

    Today, the 7th day of Shvat, is my Hebrew birthday.
    A Jew is given the power to give blessings on their Hebrew birthday.

    May you always have everything that you need.
    May you be healthy, and safe, and live extremely long lives.

    May you all stick around for a very long time and always have clarity in life.

      How is your Hebrew birthday chosen and how does it differ from the one based on the every day calendar?

      1. Chief Mac

        Since the Hebrew calendar is a lunar calendar – a person’s birthdate is set when they are born and it stays on that lunar date regardless of what the Western calendar says. That is also why our holidays are not the same on the Western calendar year to year

          1. Chief Mac

      “The case had been brought by the President of the Board of Deputies of British Jews, Marie van der Zyl, who cited 11 examples between 2005 and 2018.

      The tribunal upheld the complaint in four instances, including one example from 2015 where Dr Sizer shared an article promoting the idea that Israel was behind the terrorist attacks on 11 September 2001.

      On another occasion Dr Sizer posted a link on his website in September 2010 to an article titled “9/11 The Mother of All Coincidences”.”

      It’s excellent that Sizer is stripped of power.
      Obviously he still retained some of it, despite his retirement.

    Netanyahu meets with mother of Israeli hostage Avera Mengistu

    Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Monday met with the mother of Avera Mengistu – one of the two Israeli hostages being held in Gaza – for a “periodic update,” weeks after the Palestinian enclave’s governing Hamas group released a video of him.

    Mengistu and Hisham al-Sayed – who voluntarily crossed the border into Gaza between 2014 and 2015 – have been held by the Islamist extremist group ever since, as have the bodies of Lieutenant Hadar Goldin and Staff Sergeant Oron Shaul, who were killed during the 2014 war there.

    Despite past reports of Hamas and Israel reaching an understanding on a prisoner exchange, one has not transpired.

    Biden says US won’t provide F-16 jets to Ukraine

    President Joe Biden said the US would not be providing Ukraine’s armed forces with the American-made F-16 fighter jets that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and members of his government have asked for.

    Biden was addressing reporters upon his return to the White House when he was asked if the US would offer the single-engine multirole fighters to Kyiv.

    He replied: “No”.

    Mr Zelensky’s government has repeatedly pressed Washington for the modern aircraft, which would be a significant upgrade from the Soviet-era MiG and Sukhoi fighters that Ukrainian Air Force pilots have used.

    🇮🇱 Bill advances to revoke terrorists’ citizenship, residency

    A bill to revoke the citizenship of terrorists receiving compensation from the Palestinian Authority (PA) passed in Israel’s parliament on its first reading today.

    The Knesset, Israel’s legislature, voted in favor of the measure by 89-8, with many of Israel’s opposition supporting it. The bill will be subject to two more rounds of votes, deliberations and debates in the Knesset plenum and committees before it becomes law.

    Israel’s interior minister will be able to revoke the citizenship or permanent residency status of terrorists, according to the wording of the bill, if they received a prison sentence and Palestinian Authority compensation. They will then be banished to the Gaza Strip or West Bank.

    White inferiorists?

    White supremist believe that Jews and certain others, are inferior…. so the might be allowed to live on their own, but not amongst them, because they don’t want to mingle with the inferior.
    They are often classified as “far-right”. This might be the case in Europe, but I don’t think so here. The right here wants more personal freedoms, and are willing to pay for it with greater personal responsibility and they want less government, and therefore, lower taxes. White supremist are a breed all to their own. In general, the prefer the positions of the right over the left, but make no mistake, when the bigotry and antisemitism of the left is better understood, the white supremist will flip in a heartbeat.

    So what about the left?
    The left believes that Jews control everything… Hollywood, the banks, the media, etc… And, that Israel is the second biggest bully in the world, only slightly behind the US. In essence, they believe that they are inferior to Jews. When fighting against a bully, one is at a disadvantage, so it make it’s permissibly to fight dirty, or excessively.

    I think this is what explains the left. They are a collection of people who view themselves as victims, and this is why they fight obsessively, and often in a dirty manner. Arabs know this and use this… their entire battle plan is based on marketing a set of lies and myths to create the impression the Israel and Jews are bullies, and they are victims. There is no regard for truth of facts, only a requirement for the marketing to be believed.

    Around the world, there is a campaign to put an exact definition on antisemitism (IHRA). All parties hostile towards Israel and Jews are vehemently against defining antisemitism, why?
    If some antisemitic event takes place, one can compare it with the official definition, and say definitively that the action was antisemitic…. but without a definition, it depends on one’s opinion if it was antisemitic or not. Might seems not such a major thing, but it is. Being victimized beyond a shadow of a doubt strike right at the heart of the main battle tactic of the hostile parties.

    In summary, the left fight obsessively and dirty…. although this is clear, they cannot see it themselves. It’s why they focus and play so much with words, technicalities, and go so far as to actually change definitions. This also explains why they advocate for so many harmful policies…. in their minds, if it hurts America, or Jews, or white people, for them, it’s good no matter what.

    Simply by pointing this out instantly sparks a response of being a fascist or white supremist. Of course this is not the case, but the accusation generally puts an end to any debate.

    Summary of the summary— Hostile parties, regardless of their colour or race, are indeed, white inferiorists.
    This can also explain the left, socialist, communist fascination with antisemitism. In a typical leftist’s mindset, if white supremacy is bad, then white inferiority is good,
    simple as that.

    -Bill Smith

      They see themselves as victims as you said, and they also see themselves as morally superior = therefore they think they are entitled to act however they want. “The Superior Virtue of The Oppressed” as Bertrand Russell put it.

    Abbas presents Blinken with list of demands for Israeli concessions
    Palestinian Authority chief Mahmoud Abbas outlined a series of demands for Israeli concessions during a meeting on Tuesday with U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken in Ramallah.

    Abbas called on Washington to pressure Israel to forgo construction plans in Judea and Samaria, curb IDF counter-terrorism operations in Palestinian-controlled areas and cancel punitive measures imposed on the P.A. in response to its ongoing “political and legal war” against the Jewish state.

    Israel’s Security Cabinet approved the measures earlier this month after the U.N. General Assembly, at the urging of the P.A., passed a resolution calling on the International Court of Justice to “render urgently an advisory opinion” on Israel’s “prolonged occupation, settlement and annexation of Palestinian territory.”

    “We affirm that the Israeli government is responsible for what is happening today, because of its practices that undermine the two-state solution and violate the signed agreements, and because of the lack of international efforts to dismantle the occupation [and] end the settlement regime, and the failure to recognize the Palestinian state and its full membership in the United Nations,” said Abbas.

    “The continued opposition to the efforts of the Palestinian people to defend their existence and their legitimate rights in international forums and courts, and to provide international protection for our people, is a policy that encourages the Israeli occupier to commit more crimes and violates international law,” he added.

        1. Proud Conservative Mom

          I’m sure that the TSA agent embarrassed other Jews before.
          Unfortunately, some might be too demoralized to take action.

          Absolutely, these kinds of people have a laugh over a beer with their buddies at our expense.

          Jew hatred won’t end until Moshiach comes.

          I just keep telling myself: “He who laughs last, laughs best.”

          We’ll have the last laugh for all eternity.

          May the long awaited moment be NOW.

          I watched most of it, but this creep has me worried.
          I hope that there are sane people out there who are keeping tabs on him and what he’s up to.

        2. Weary Traveler

          I watched it. It is about how the grooming is covered up, and called a “conspiracy theory.”

      2. Proud Conservative Mom

        I don’t know who that meshuganah is.

      Just got the Adam Schiff bit where he nearly chokes up. This is shows why I could never be a politician. My response would probably get me expelled. Which is; “I sincerely hope to God that Adam Schiff stole his seat. Otherwise, it would speak very poorly of the people who live in his district.”

    1. Proud Conservative Mom

      We all knew that the FIB is an extension of the DemonRAT Party.
      It’s been an evil racket for a very long time already.

      What they got away with (thus far), continues to make my stomach churn and incenses me tremendously.

      1. Sapper 9

        When I have time, I will look up articles on a hunter biden connection to China securing a 3.8 billion dollar deal for China to corner the rare earth mineral market, while his father created a 20 year moratorium on us rare earth mining.

        The daily mail did a recent article on this, but, I want to dig into my old files , with the new classified document scandal, their appear to be connections.

        In his first year Bidet has destroyed the US oil, gas and cobalt exploration, while forcing the nation into electric vehicles and his family PROFITS beyond belief.

    1. Tony

      The problem with that is that it is not remotely funny. There are far too many people in real life that are just like that.

          4. Proud Conservative Mom

            Agreed.

            Believe it or not, NY is even far worse.

            NY and NJ has the highest amount of Orthodox Jews domiciled therein.

            It’s very frustrating.

            We really all need to go back home to Israel.
            I can leave with very short notice.and cannot wait to do so.

      2. Weary Traveler

        Yeah, funny how they always say that WE are the ones that want to get women pregnant and barefoot. As if we have a problem with women wearing shoes. LOL

  186. Weary Traveler

    I agree with a lot of things Jordan Peterson says, this is not one of them.

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-nyEpQ7ZRmY

    If anything, western countries should be more focused on changing out their regimes. Case in point; Trudy in his nation of Canada. And Brandon here in the US.

    And let’s not forget who installed that regime in Iran in the first place via color revolution, and who actually emboldened that regime with a so-called “Nuclear deal” that lifted the sanctions.

    Ending/toppling these regimes, and without firing a single shot would be fairly easy, but it is something that politicians don’t want to do, because there is no money to be made/laundered.

    A first good start is what Trump did, which was make the US energy independent. This harmed OPEC, which in turn cut off the money going to terrorist organizations. Notice the Palestinian attacks on Israel even slowed to a trickle when Trump was at the helm. Which didn’t even happen under other pro-Israel Republican presidents.

    Another good step would be auditing and abolishing the federal reserve, and going back to sound money. That way, we can eliminate taxes and bring back manufacturing.

    And last but not least, abolish the CIA.

    I guarantee you that there would be far fewer wars, and more bad regimes would fall without our military having to get involved.

    1. Sapper 9

      Biden wants us Dependent on OPEC for oil, China for rare earth metals and the DNCCP for the bread lines.

        If Wikipedia hates her, than that further confirms she’s one of the good guys. Err, gals.

            TTP is totally volunteer work, no salary; her and her husband are real estate investors, they also purchase run down houses and rehab them.

            She found an antique pistol in one of her recent purchases, she posed with it like Bonnie from the criminal couple Bonnie and Clyde, copying the pose. lol

          8. Proud Conservative Mom

            Normally those who are in that line of business tend to do well.
            I hope that is the case with them as well.

            It’s wonderful that she volunteers so much of her time.

            That is such a humourous anecdote.
            LOL!

        1. Tony

          Look up her history on Wiki. It’s a laugh. Make it fast though or she might have changed her party again!

          5. Sapper 9

            She has been a real fighter against the election fraud in Arizona; flipping from republican to independent or the other way around is no big deal; I have known a lot of great conservatives that were Democrats at one point or another, to include PRESIDENT Trump.

            Wikipedia is the MSNBC of the internet “encyclopedia” sites, I do not know trust the accuracy of anything that they “publish”; however, If their information about her party affiliation is correct, see my above statement.

          6. Weary Traveler

            Ah, there you go. Wikipedia.

            Even college professors will not allow you to cite Wikipedia as a source when writing a paper, which should tell you everything you need to know about it.

            That was a rule that was made crystal clear when I was in college, and were assigned papers for midterms and finals.

          4. Sapper 9

            Me too, if it was a troll I would have been all over it, but, I respect Tony’s viewpoint and was curious to hear it.

    The only mine to open before Bidet’s moratorium, is owned by an Australian company, a company that owned mines in Africa that Bidet Jr got paid to work the deal for a Chinese company to purchase, for almost 2 billion dollars.

    How much have the Bidets been paid by the Chinese?

    Did they get classified US policy information, or influence for their money?

      2. bill smith

        Actually they should never apologize for anything since their “apologies” are never sincere. Apologies from them simply means ‘whoopsies, you caught me’.

    2. Proud Conservative Mom

      Hoo boy, that is one ugly hag! 🤯🤯🤯

      “She apologised shortly afterwards, after being ordered to do so by party bosses.”

      Some apology.

      She should take it and shove it somewhere the sun doesn’t shine.

          2. Weary Traveler

            This is one of the reasons why I wish we all weren’t scattered so far apart. We could pop in, and visit. Take her out for a cup of coffee. I think we could all use some good talk therapy right about now.

          4. Weary Traveler

            Her too.

            I wish I could invite her out to Panera with me and Marty, or just take her out for a little day ride.

          5. Proud Conservative Mom

            I’m really worried about her.
            She’s very isolated and alone.

            As awful as Sarah’s situation is, she’s from a very warm and loving family.
            Of course, I’m not minimizing the agony of what she’s experiencing at all, Heaven forbid.

          6. Weary Traveler

            I know what you mean. It is much harder to go through things alone. I don’t care how strong a person is. Everyone has their limits, and dealing with battles alone will push you to those limits much faster.

            I am so glad Sarah has the support she does.

          12. Tony

            OK. I just wondered why you said she was alone. I do have her e-mail address but I very rarely use it.

          2. Weary Traveler

            Yes, very rare exceptions indeed. And those exceptions are tragedies.

            Those are the beautiful women age to become crazy cat ladies.

          4. Weary Traveler

            Exactly. There are people, who do not vote for Marxists, but end up alone and single because of the Marxists.

        3. bill smith

          The local variety here are skinny, grey hair, no make-up, and look as though they took too much acid in the 60s. As well, they all seem to have multiple pension and earn about double the average from the age of 55 onward, while not working (other than activisting). Of the men, similar but usually bald, grey hair, with a beard, unkept, disheveled, and wearing Walmart polyester pants, loafers, and plaid sports jacket with patches sewn over the elbows. Also has too much acid in the 60s…. oh, and hairy ears and backs.
          Their kids seem to be liberal arts students who drive nice cars, wear fancy clothes, and hang out at Starbucks all day long… of course with piercings and tattoos.

          1. Proud Conservative Mom

            Wouldn’t that describe the Liberal species globally?

            I’ve seen the species myself in my tri-state area.
            It’s precisely as you so very colorfully and accurately described.

            It’s a darn pity and waste of our tax dollars that they receive such wonderful pensions.
            They use their free time to be activists for the worst things.

            (Free Palestine is always in vogue.)

          2. Weary Traveler

            I like to ask those fools, “Free Palestine form who?” Any other answer than Hamas, you are dealing with a closeted Nazi.

          3. Proud Conservative Mom

            You’re very spot on, as usual.

            I’ve asked that question before.
            They’ll give me sob stories about the “oppressive” Jews who make the Palestinians miserable and grants them no rights.

            Facts don’t matter to these scum.

            I also responded with when has a Jew ever been a suicide bomber?

            I hear crickets…

          4. Weary Traveler

            They ignore that none of the Palestinians are Israeli, and not of the countries they come from are all too eager to absorb them themselves. Like Jordan or Egypt.

          6. Weary Traveler

            Right. So by al rights, shouldn’t Jordan absorb them, or carve off some of their own land to them? I don’t see them stepping up to the plate, or anyone asking them too.

            They are just a blunt instrument to hit Israel with.

          8. Weary Traveler

            LOLOLOLOLOL at that visual. The patches on the sleeves of the sports coat to make them look like professors no doubt. LOL

          10. bill smith

            Here’s a joke for you….
            How many communists does it take to change a lightbulb?
            1001
            Why?
            1 to hold the lightbulb, and the other 1000 to turn the house.

          12. Weary Traveler

            Add another thousand to spend ten years conducting a “study”, at public expense of course, to figure out whether to turn the house clockwise, or counter-clockwise.

          14. Weary Traveler

            That little bit was actually based on a real life anecdote when I called the county — not my current county of residence, but another county I lived in at the time — to complain about a dangerous accident prone intersection, and how it was overdue for a stoplight. They literally told me that they would have to do a study on the intersection, and that it could take up to ten years to conclude the study, and decide whether or not to approve the funds to put in the light.

            Of course, I asked; “wouldn’t it just be cheaper to forego the study, and the ten years, and propose the light?” Of course, I got a non-answer about how that is just not how it works. And believe it or not, this wasn’t some blue Bay Area county, but a deep red county in the Sierra Nevada Foothills.

          18. bill smith

            Oh, their males seem to be as overweight as their females are underweight. Note too… the only reason I know about the hairy ears and backs is because many of them also go to the pool when they are not activisting.

          19. Weary Traveler

            Oh, like the Lesbian Mermaids?

            My friend, Carolyn, refers to the people you described as “The Soy Elite.” LOL

          23. bill smith

            Matter of opinion. They usually have a lot of other people’s money….. but morally bankrupt.

          25. Weary Traveler

        This is the last thing the Labour Party and Keir Starmer need. Having spent years trying to remove their reputation for anti-semitism, with the Conservatives collapsing and polls putting Labour way in front, and now this happens! Seems a leopard can’t change its spots.

        1. Proud Conservative Mom

          I’ve never believed that Labour changed.

          Exactly.
          A leopard cannot change its spots.

          FYI, I only apply that rule to die hard Liberals and Jew haters.
          Normal people can become better than who they were yesterday.

      1. Proud Conservative Mom

        AGREED.

        My friend Sheryl did some digging. Nikki Haley was a junior member of WEF.
        The information has been scrubbed from the internet.

        I KNEW we had just cause for remembering that she’s a globalist.

      1. Weary Traveler

        I swear, something so similar happened last night. We were at a four way stop, and at first, a jogger wanted to cross the street, and then someone else, and then some more people all at the same time. And even being aware that there were plenty of cars waiting for them to cross so we can all go, they just continued to lumber along, to let us all know that they had nowhere to be, and all the time in the world to get there.

        I’m surprised this didn’t happen…

        https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t1bOdzI5BsU

          1. Weary Traveler

            I have a feeling the scene I described from last night would have gotten really loud really quick in NYC. LOL

            I sometimes think the place I reside is a portal some hellish alternate universe.

            Or worse, maybe some of those close calls in the past weren’t so close, and I died went straight to Hell. And for what? Is it because of that time I accidentally stole a satellite dish magazine from a video store when I was a kid? I seriously thought my grandma had paid for it. Is this extra punishment for committing a “geek” crime = stealing a magazine about satellite dishes, instead of doing a normal kid crime like stealing a candy bar?

            And if so, isn’t this just a tad excessive? LOL

          2. Proud Conservative Mom

            You’re absolutely spot on about NYC.
            And HOW!

            Oh my goodness…
            It would be more than a tad excessive.

            I cannot even begin to imagine what you go through.

            The fact that Orthodox Jews by necessity have to live in communities is HUGE.

            The world is temporarily being shot to Hell, but we have each other.

            No Jew hater can EVER take that away from us.

      LOLOLOL 😆

        Good evening! 😊😊😊
        How are you and your family doing?

        I don’t know what is the average amount of snow that Har HaChermon (Mt. Hermon) typically gets.

        In 2014, IIRC, it appeared to have less snow than this picture.

        1. John Crawford

          Well, Mom. Very well. Cold and icy after yesterday’s storm here in w. TN. I hope you’re all well also.
          I don’t recall when I first heard that Israel gets snow, but i think it was the mid 70’s, when I was in Cyprus. I was mildly shocked because I’d always thought, without knowing, that it didn’t get snow. Live and learn, right?
          Semper fi, my friend

          1. Proud Conservative Mom

            I’m so very sorry that it’s so cold where you are domiciled.
            We’re expecting it to be Artic temperatures over Shabbos and Sunday.

            I am not looking forward to that, but I cannot complain. Thus far, we’ve had a record of almost no snow at all.
            I’m hoping that it continues.

            Absolutely, we live and learn.

            Israel is the size of NJ, but has therein every kind of topography that exists.
            Isn’t that incredible?!

            I miss Israel with all of my heart and soul.
            In fact, I left a part of myself behind when I left in 2014; a piece of my heart and soul.

            There’s nowhere else on the planet that can remotely compare to it.

            When I stepped onto its holy ground for the first time (in 1990), I felt like I had come home.

            FYI, when an Orthodox Jew (I don’t know what Reform and Conservative Jews do with regard to this) is buried, a bit of earth from Israel is buried with him or her.

          2. John Crawford

            That tradition, of including a bit of Israel with the deceased, is a wonderful reminder to us all.

    No classified documents were found during an FBI search of President Joe Biden’s home in Rehoboth, Delaware, his lawyer says.

        “But even where it emerges without any sexual purpose, in the blindest fury of destructiveness, we cannot fail to recognize that the satisfaction of the instinct is accompanied by an extraordinarily high degree of narcissistic enjoyment, owing to its presenting the ego with a fulfilment of the latter’s old wishes for omnipotence. ”

        The sexual gratification part of the article, makes me think of those mentally ill people who cannot derive pleasure from physical intimacy without being beaten prior.
        It turns my stomach.

        INDEED, our wannabe masters are delirious in their implementation of their evil agenda against We the People.

        They’re positively giddy with delight, the more we suffer.
        These are very deranged scum.

        “Wolf homes in on the clearest sign of Schwab and his cohorts being under the spell of the destructive death drive, alloyed with a kind of sadism – the cruel enjoyment of robbing humans of what makes them human”

        YES. She described it in a magnificent manner and also honed in on our Covid isolation which was very much part of their sadistic plan.

        Klaus, et al, want to be our puppet masters.
        They are arrogantly mapping out their Marxist and twisted version (and I repeat myself), of how they insist and want us to lead our own lives.

        “it is abundantly clear from Wolf’s interpretation of the events spanning the last couple of years that the globalist neo-fascists are hellbent on sadistically undermining this life force in the name of the death drive. ”

        YES, YES, YES!!

        We’re not meant to be a one world nation.
        Schwab and his ilk want this in order to exercise complete and utter control.

          @dr_darko:disqus, continuing with my comments:

          From Kennedy:

          “By August 2021, Dr. Fauci, the CDC, and White House officials were reluctantly conceding that vaccination would neither stop illness nor transmission, but nevertheless, they told Americans that the jab would, in any case, protect them against severe forms of the disease or death. (It’s worth mentioning that HCQ and ivermectin could have accomplished this same objective at a tiny fraction of its price.) Dr. Fauci and President Biden, presumably with Dr. Fauci’s prompting, told Americans that 98 percent of serious cases, hospitalizations, and deaths were among the unvaccinated. This was a lie. Real-world data from nations with high COVID jab rates show the complete converse of this narrative; the resumption of infections in all those countries accompanied an explosion of hospitalizations, severe cases and deaths among the vaccinated! [Bold in original;”

          This was a very carefully executed plan to cause mass murder on a global level.
          The virus was intentionally created with Fauxi having ties to the lab and poison death shots (hat tip to Dr. Zev Zelenko ZTL for the terrific terminology).

          Of course, they tried to bar access to the Ivermectin and Hydroxychloroquine.
          They, along with the recommended vitamins were a mere fraction of the cost.

          Moreover, its success hampered their plans.
          That’s why they also had to try to destroy Dr. Zelenko ZTL and America’s Frontline Doctors.

          I DO believe that people are waking up.
          Unfortunately, not quickly enough.

          To believe that Satan rebelled against G-d and established his own kingdom, is denying that Hashem is The Supreme Being.

            Notice how they like to play the other side of the “end times prophecy” from the Christian bible? As if to somehow legitimize it by default, and keep people tied to that doctrine?

          3. Weary Traveler

            I’ve noticed this. They point to the sickos in the WEF, and draw parallels to the writings of St. John in the book of Revelations. Which I am surprised just didn’t branch off in to a sect of its own like the Jehovah’s Witnesses.

          Schwab and his ilk are too evil to even exist. It’s scary that these people are in the positions they are in, and not in a padded cell for the criminally insane. I think that dynamic is a reason they are hell bent on oppressing us. They want to inflict on us what they know they deserve to happen to them.

          It has always disgusted me how sex has been so cheapened, and that has psychologically damaged too many people. It reminds me of how the French describe orgasm as “Le petite mort”, which literally translates to “small death”, which perverts intimacy in to a power struggle.

          1. Proud Conservative Mom

            Agreed, they are beyond evil and don’t deserve to live.

            Precisely. Tragically, they are not in a psychiatric ward and are in tremendous positions of power.
            They give new meaning to: “The inmates are running the asylum.”

            They most definitely want to sadistically inflict on us as much pain as possible.
            That’s their version of having a grand ‘ol time.

            Your closing paragraph is right on target. I knew about it.
            It’s absolutely sickening.

            Sex has been cheapened and corrupted for a very long time already.
            It’s extremely tragic.

            Physical intimacy between a husband and wife according to Judaism, is a very holy and spiritual act.
            Believe me, we have very healthy marriages emotionally and physically.

            FYI, The Church didn’t help matters because they have sects that believe that “Original Sin” was Adam and Eve being physically intimate.

    Israel foils drive by Lebanese entity to recruit terrorists on TikTok

    Israel’s Shin Bet foiled a pot by a “Lebanese entity” to enlist residents of east Jerusalem to carry out terrorist attacks against Israeli targets, the internal security agency said on Thursday. The recruitment operation utilized the popular yet controversial Chinese video application TikTok to get in touch with the targets.

    Two residents of east Jerusalem were arrested for collusion with the recruitment effort. At the behest of the Lebanese recruiter, the two suspects took up spying missions and photographed various Israeli locales, especially in Jerusalem, with a view to perpetrating terrorist attacks.

    According to the Israeli agency, a Lebanon-based TikTok account going by the name of “Abu Assan” would contact east Jerusalem youths and start chatting about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, trying to radicalize the young interlocutors; establishing a personal connection, he would then suggest to start talking on the encrypted Telegram app.

    Suspected Chinese Spy Balloon Found Hovering Over Northern US, Officials Say

    The government has been monitoring a suspected Chinese surveillance balloon that has been hovering over the northern U.S. for the past few days, and they have discussed shooting it out of the sky, according to two U.S. officials and a senior defense official.

    “The United States government has detected and is tracking a high-altitude surveillance balloon that is over the continental United States right now,” Pentagon spokesperson Brig. Gen. Pat Ryder told NBC News. “We continue to track and monitor it closely.”

    “Once the balloon was detected, the U.S. government acted immediately to protect against the collection of sensitive information,” Ryder said.

    The high-altitude balloon was spotted over Billings, Montana, on Wednesday. It flew from the Aleutian Islands, through Canada, and into Montana. A senior defense official said the balloon is still over the U.S. but declined to say where it is now.

    GET OUT: Rep. Lawler Says Ilhan Omar Has Only Herself to Blame for Ouster

    By: Yeshiva World News

    New York Rep. Mike Lawler (NY-17) on Thursday hailed the ouster of Rep. Ilhan Omar from the House Foreign Affairs Committee, telling YWN that the Minnesota Democrat has no place being on the powerful panel.

    Omar was tossed from the committee in a 218-211 vote following raucous debate during which Democrats accused Republicans of targeting the congresswoman over her gender and faith.

    Lawler says nothing could be further from the truth, and it was the things she said and did which undid her.

    “Her words and actions as a member of Congress have anti-Semitic, and people saying and doing those things don’t belong on the Foreign Affairs Committee,” Lawler said.

    “The Committee is an important and powerful one – it is seen around the world as speaking for United States’ views on foreign world affairs, and as such, we need responsible people whose views align with America’s foreign policy views,” Lawler continued. “Ilhan Omar has made clear that her positions do not comport with Americans’ views – not on Israel and not on a host of other issues.”

    “She has not been held accountable for rhetoric throughout the years, including her stunning comment that ‘some people did something’ on 9/11, which as a New Yorker, I found deeply offensive,” he added.

    “There are hundreds of other Democrats that can be appointed to the Foreign Affairs Committee. Ilhan Omar doesn’t need to be on it, and she shouldn’t be on it. I was proud to vote to kick her off and I’d do again. My district has over 100,000 practicing Jews in it, and we cannot have such individuals on powerful committees when anti-Semitism is rising in New York and across the country,” Lawler concluded.

    Active Hope

    By: Rabbi Dr. Mordechai Schiffman

    Parshas Beshalach (Exodus 13:17-17:16)

    If you want to have better physical and mental health, work on boosting hope. Research shows that high levels of hope are correlated with a host of positive outcomes, such as healthier habits (better sleep, healthier eating, increased exercise), greater success in school and at work, more fulfilling relationships, and greater overall satisfaction with life. But there is one caveat. The benefits of hope only apply when the hope is directly tied to taking action toward a goal. Hope that leads to passivity, is not hope. Hope is not just the belief that the future will be better than the present, but most importantly, it is the belief that you can do something to make the future better.

    At first glance, hope, so defined, has very little to do with this week’s Torah portion. The themes seem more to do with faith and trust that God can make the future better, not people. There is little human agency in the narrative, as God dominates the story; He destroys the Egyptians in the Yam Suf. The same could be said of the previous two Torah portions, as well. God performs the ten plagues and is totally responsible for the Children of Israel’s exodus from Egypt.

    Yet, this perceived passivity is not the full story. After God destroyed the Egyptian army, the Children of Israel were attacked by Amalek. However, instead of Divine intervention, the war was fought through natural means. Yehoshua, sword in hand, led the army against Amalek. While the Torah relates that when Moshe’s hands were lifted, the Children of Israel would gain momentum and when his hands were lowered they would start losing, this was less Divine intervention and more Divine inspiration. The Mishna (Rosh Hashana 3:8) explains that Moshe’s raised hands motivated the Children of Israel to think about God, which gave them the courage to prevail.

    The episode of God defeating Egypt followed by the Children of Israel defeating Amalek, is the first of three cases of what Rabbi Jonathan Sacks refers to as a double narrative, consisting of a before and after. In each , an act is first performed entirely by God, with the Children of Israel being passive. This is followed by the Children of Israel partnering with God, but ultimately taking a fully active role in the process.

    The second double narrative where this before-and-after takes place is the Revelation at Sinai, where God is dominant. This is followed by the building of the Tabernacle, which is primarily constructed by the Children of Israel.

    The third double-narrative is the formation of the two tablets: the first were completely the writing of God, and the second involved a more active participation by Moshe. God is modeling for Bnei Yisrael how to take an active role in their own development. In Rabbi Sacks’ words: “God is transformed from doer to teacher. In the process, human beings are transformed from dependency to interdependency.”

    While Rabbi Sacks uses the destruction of the Egyptians as an example of the total passivity of Bnei Yisrael, upon closer inspection, that is not entirely the case. While God is obviously primarily responsible for the redemption of the Children of Israel from Egpyt, He also made sure to require active participation from them, even in that process. Most prominently, when they are stuck between the quickly-approaching Egyptian army and the Sea of Reeds, God tells Moshe to stop crying out in prayer and just start traveling (Shemot 14:15). The Talmud adds to the narrative the celebrated courage of Nachshon ben Aminadav who was the first to jump into the water (Sotah 37a). Human action was necessary to precipitate the miracles at the Yam Suf. Rabbi Yehuda Brandes suggests that the same theme is evident when God commands the Children of Israel to participate in the process of the Pesach offering. It was essential that they become active partners in the redemption, and not just passive recipients.

    If we want a better future, we can’t just sit back and hope or pray to be saved. A hope tied to passivity is not really hope. We must be willing to actively attempt to bring about the change we want to see. By linking our hope to action, we partner with God to improve our future.

    Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Friday he had “one of the best meetings” with France’s President Emmanuel Macron, who expressed “willingness to consider the imposition of sanctions on the Iranian Revolutionary Guards.”

    “The conversation was very good. We talked about concrete things. He (Macron) expressed willingness to consider the imposition of sanctions on the Iranian Revolutionary Guards,” Netanyahu said.

    “I must say that the concern is shared, the assessment of the nature of the regime is shared. It’s a rapprochement,” Netanyahu said, adding that just several years ago he was “almost alone” in voicing concern about the danger of the Iranian regime “ not only to Israel, not only to the USA, but also to Europe,” he added.

      The balloon is just another democrat deception. Why do people believe in things they can’t see. The democrats are just yanking peoples chains.

    The Desire to Quit

    By: Adam Lieberman

    Parshas Beshalach (Exodus 13:17-17:16)

    Pharaoh had finally agreed to let the Jewish people leave Egypt. God then led the Jews to Israel on the longest route out of Egypt. God knew that if He took them out on the shortest route, the Jews would encounter a war along the way. And God said…

    “Perhaps the people will reconsider when they see a war, and they will return to Egypt” (Exodus, 13:17).

    A Life Lesson

    Even though the Jewish people had just personally witnessed an awesome series of miracles, God knew that at the first sign of trouble they would want to return to Egypt and back to their lives of slavery.

    How many times have you set a goal for yourself and the moment something didn’t go as smoothly as you had planned, you immediately experienced self-doubt and seriously questioned your ability, worthiness, and even the goal itself? And the dream that you were so certain you wanted ends up slowly drifting into the large sea of the other unaccomplished goals and dreams you had in the past. Isn’t it amazing that on Monday you knew exactly what you wanted with crystal clear clarity and had a solid game plan to achieve it, and by Wednesday you’re about to give up?

    The reason for all of this is due to two internal, distinct and powerful drives that God gave as a gift to all of us. One drive wants to change the world, climb the highest mountains, and leave the planet in a radically and more improved place than it now exists. The other drive will then challenge, question, and doubt every part of this journey and try with all its might to prevent you from never accomplishing anything.

    Why would God, who loves us more than words could ever express, give us a desire not to grow, succeed, or experience the pleasure of great accomplishments?

    The answer is simple: Only through struggle and fighting the burning desire to quit can we ever have the unbelievable joy and ecstasy that comes from achievement. If God knew the Jews would want to run back to slavery at the first challenge they encountered after just witnessing all of the miracles that He preformed for them, then clearly the drive to quit and retreat is alive and well within all of us. It doesn’t matter how big, great, or strong you are — this force will always be there.

    Knowledge is power and by knowing that this “drive to quit” was designed by God to actually make you great will now give you the ability to see it for what it is: A test. Will you recognize that this drive’s only purpose is to get you NOT to change the world and then fight through the urge to run away, or do you stop in your tracks and question your very existence?

    Every time you begin a project, start an exercise program, want to launch a new career, or go towards any meaningful goal, you must know that you will encounter a war. This war might be disguised as the people who tell you that cannot succeed, or the rejection you face, or the obstacles you’ll inevitably encounter. Remember, you were “pre-designed” by God to have a burning urge to retreat to Egypt. Make no mistake about it, you will be tested.

    Great men and women have all faced the exact same tests and they have doubted themselves and all had the urge to quit. But for them, going back to Egypt was not an option. So they instead kept their eye on the ball and kicked their self- doubt in its shin’s and went on to greatness. And people look at their great success stories and bemoan to all who’ll listen that they too would have achieved greatest if they had the same circumstances. And that’s the great irony — their circumstances aren’t just the same, but identical. The circumstance was the desire to quit. Great men and women blast through it, while others reconsider when they see a war and return to Egypt.

    So, while having a good plan is important, not giving up on it is everything. And sometimes even after you choose to fight the war, you might not win. But take much comfort in knowing that it’s completely up to God whether or not you’ll have the strength and ability to win the war. But that was never the point. Because the purpose of the test was to just fight the war and refuse to retreat to Egypt. And since we’re all designed for greatness, it’s only through choosing to fight and march on that we’ll inevitably experience the ecstasy of success. So the next time you want to become better in some way tomorrow than you are today, know that the great men and women of history who’ve achieved so much are no different than you and I. They just hung around for the war.

        I remember when they only gave then $20,000 and each went out and bought a Mercedes and became Sherut drivers and killed far more Israelis than the armed terrorists did

    So now we are talking about a Chinese spy balloon in US air space flying over the mainland.

    This is not the first time this has happened. Let’s do a brief review of recent history. The US Navy intercepted a Chinese drone. The pentagon released the footage claiming it was a UFO, and then the Pentagon talked about “UFO Disclosure.”

    The DoD lied about the object. Why? Because President Trump had ended the Open Skies Treaty in 2017. And the grainy “Tic-Tac” footage was released to the public one year later.

    The Open Skies Treaty allowed foreign military air craft to fly over our top secret military instillations, and was signed by Barack Obama. This is treason, and they have been getting away with it for years. So why now admit that there is foreign air craft in US air space flying over civilian population areas? And from a hostile foreign nation no less.

    Is this because they have lost too much support for the fake war in Ukraine? Are they getting ready to beat the war drums with China next?

    Are they just trying to panic the public?

      If they can’t keep a spy balloon out, I doubt they can protect against anything; however, BIDET inc has probably been paid off to allow this.

      1. Weary Traveler

        They deliberately allowed it in. There’s no way they didn’t know it was coming. And if they were so worried about potential damage on the ground if it were to be shot down, they could have just shot it down while it was over the ocean in US waters.

    Schools across the country will host BLM at school week, which teaches kids about trans affirmation, restorative justice, and PRO PALESTINE propaganda.

    I wonder how much taxpayer money will be wasted on this nonsense by the indoctrination centers.

    What were they thinking????

    First, if President Trump was in the White House, I doubt China would have sent a spy balloon.
    Still, if it was inevitably going to be shot down, then shoot it down as it enters US territory, not when it is exiting and already collected and transmitted sensitive data.
    As well, no need to blast the crap out of it….. should have been pierced with smaller diameter projectiles so that the thing gradually descends not crashes and disintegrates.

    After this, consequences for China…. but of course bidet will punish them with about the same veracity as their punishment for causing a global pandemic…. not even a slap on the wrist.

      Sadly the US was complicit with the release of the virus, since Fauci outsourced the gain of function research to China, after such research was banned in the US.

      They never would have been able to develop that virus without US help. And we have one too many traitors to the US, and humanity at large, in the government.

      2. Sapper 9

        They were also doing gain of function research in Ukraine, and Hunter Bidet is part owner of the company being paid to do the research.
