Compare and contrast

This month there was an assassination attempt on former Pres. Trump where he was struck by a bullet, a fireman was killed, and two others were injured. The US Congress immediately embarked on an intense hearing where Secret Service heads have been grilled by Congress people on both sides of the aisle. This is ongoing.

10 months ago Israel experienced a far more significant failure where terrorists flew kites over a fence that was supposed to be guarded by the military, who had prior knowledge of the impending invasion. 1,300 people died and since then 350 soldiers have died and 1,000s wounded. Hostages are still in Gaza. But there has been no investigation. The High Court of yentas whose power was supposed to be curtailed after the last election blocked it after the military finally got around to considering starting one. 

What happened to the election? Oh the left rioted, blocked the airport and the roads, and military people said that they would be derelict in the duty that they swore to uphold if the will of the electorate was honored and the court brought under control in accordance with standards of actual democracies. The police refused to stop them.

So we see how a real democracy works, and how a pretend democracy tries to fool us. 

In which do you want to live?

Forget about reading and talking to people

You hear about these Anglo-communities and you expect Teaneck or Far Rockaway in Israel. Now, wouldn't that mean that the shuls have books in English. Well they don't have that here, even in Anglo shuls where shiurim and announcements are in English. That's even in so-called Anglo communities. Here's what you see on the bookshelves. So unless you can open a book in Hebrew and translate, your Shabbos days will not be very interesting.  This Anglo community thing is a myth. In both of the shuls shown above, I donated books in English, but they were removed from the shelves and don't appear anywhere in the building.  I'm not even sure how to explain this. Why wouldn't an Anglo synagogue want English books? Obviously, gadolim don't disapprove of Torah books in English. Note the many haskamas on the Artscroll Gemara and many other books in English and other languages. I theorize that the guys who run the synagogues want to keep up with/be like the Israeli shu

It’s All About Power and Stuff

The aliyah salesman always starts by claiming that moving to Israel in our times is a mitzvah, even though it isn’t in the way he implies, because he is trying to strong-arm you. That’s how Zionists are. They are all about power and force. That’s what excites most of them about the state of Israel, that it has a Jewish army, even though it’s an army of non-practicing Jews (and Russian gentiles) who rely on American weaponry. He drools at its power (or the appearance of it). His desire that you move to Israel is not because he wants to see you fulfil a mitzvah. There are plenty of mitzvos that Jews are not doing that he’ll never mention or even notice that they are not doing. If you don’t know what I mean, step into a Zionist neighbourhood in Israel some time. Rather, he wants you to move to Israel because he wants power and that requires followers. You can’t be powerful without followers. No, he won’t be the king, but he’ll be a deputy of the king. And like any goyish royalty, he’ll bo

What they teach in school

If a school in Israel has any connection to the government, if it accepts any of the tax money that the government takes by force from working people, the government places requirements on the school curriculum. One such mandate is that the school teaches Tanach. That's not a bad thing, except that the mandate tells you what books and chapters of Tanach that you must teach. Invariably, it picks that ones that depict war and bloodshed. So you have 10 year old girls in Beis Yaakov reading not the book of Ruth but the most violent parts of Nach. Example from Samuel I When the Philistine began to advance toward him again, David quickly ran up to the battle line to face the Philistine. David put his hand into the bag; he took out a stone and slung it. It struck the Philistine in the forehead; the stone sank into his forehead, and he fell face down on the ground. Thus David bested the Philistine with sling and stone; he struck him down and killed him. David had no sword; so David ran up
