Amazingly, this week's Torah parsha states a MITZVAH D'ORAISA (biblical commandment) in BAMIDBAR 33:53 of "Vhorashtem es haaretz veshavtemba" ("Take possession of the land and settle there"). See Ramban to BAMIDBAR 33:53 and Pischei Tshuva 75:6 in Shulchan Aruch Evan HaEzer. During this same parsha the "KANOYIM" will surge out of their Boro Park and Monsey mansions in CHUTZ L'ARETZ to protest against Jews who have been MOSER NEFESH to settle the land of Israel !!!<br /><br />The pretense of these so-called Chareidim may be that Netanyahu is uprooting Jewish graves. But the real agenda of these protestors is an anti-Torah ideology. They deny any Jewish right to Eretz Yisrael, and they deny any MITZVAH<br />to settle the land, while calling the "Tsiyonim" apikorosim.<br /><br />Even worse, by protesting publicly against Netanyahu, these "KANOYIM" give a green light to Obama and the enemies of the Jews to further oppress the Jews of Eretz Yisrael. Is this really different than Bar Kamtza in Masechta Gittin who <br />wrote to the Roman Emperor and incited him against the Jews?<br /><br />When will the so-called "Chareidi" world learn to clean its house and challenge the hypocrisy of these so-called "KANOYIM"?<br /><br />Who's the real "apikoros" here - Netanyahu who lives in Yerushalayim or these so-called Chareidim living comfortably in <br />America and denying the Jewish right to Eretz Yisrael?Kanoyim Watchnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21519732.post-1189957102781379812010-06-28T18:28:32.086-04:002010-06-28T18:28:32.086-04:00"I have the same complaint against Lipschutz,..."I have the same complaint against Lipschutz, Agudah, OU, Satmar, etc.<br /><br />I was referencing Lubavs because Arthur is one of them.<br /><br />The followers of these various groups are being taken for a ride."<br /><br />A Bissel's lame excuse reminds me of the following proverbial story.<br />A driver on the freeway receives a frantic call from his wife on his cell phone."Honey" she screams terror in her voice "the traffic helicopter has just announced that some crazy guy is driving in the wrong lane on the freeway" to which he answers "Yeh,Iknow about it but it's not one guy, it's hundreds"Arthurnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21519732.post-63744403913457758692010-06-28T15:55:59.556-04:002010-06-28T15:55:59.556-04:00I have the same complaint against Lipschutz, Aguda...I have the same complaint against Lipschutz, Agudah, OU, Satmar, etc.<br /><br />I was referencing Lubavs because Arthur is one of them.<br /><br />The followers of these various groups are being taken for a ride.A bissel sechelnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21519732.post-3968333872978255582010-06-28T13:37:23.056-04:002010-06-28T13:37:23.056-04:00I'm just waiting for the Agudah to request a f...I'm just waiting for the Agudah to request a furlough for SMR, so he can address the next "Emes & The Law" series at a shul near you.<br /><br />They know how to pick em' - Spinka, Benjy Brafman; SMR's turn!Paul Mendlowitzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05887774341136059873noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21519732.post-21213506367177492042010-06-28T13:31:17.441-04:002010-06-28T13:31:17.441-04:00A Bissel, who must spend every moment of his day (...A Bissel, who must spend every moment of his day (and maybe his night too) digging up as much shmutz as he can,to stack the cards against Rubahkin,is surely aware of the fact that "the Lubavs from la-la-land" have actually done very little to support Rubashkin.The campaign to vindicate Rubashkin has been spear headed by Pinchos Lipshitz who as always been a virulent critic of Chabad.The various hafganot in support of Rubashkin have been sponsored by almost all sectors of the yeshivishe world and non Lubavitch Chassidim of every hue and color.People who have severe issues with one another have come together in support of Rubashkin.There are no issues with Rubahskins religous affiliations and no mention of Lubavitch.

Only tzedakah funds which are collected for the supposed "Rubashkin Pidyon Shvuyim Defense Fund" will pay their salaries, and generously so! So it is in their best interest to provoke the legal establishment to deliver harsh punishments to Rubashkin, then have the PR campaign rile up the masses to scream "Anti-Semitism" while Rubashkin sits in jail all the while.

He and Tobi have been married for three years.<br /><br />Schneier, 51, is also the founder and president of the Foundation for Ethnic Understanding. He often jets around the world to improve interfaith relations and met with Pope Benedict at the Vatican last year.<br /><br />Schneier, named by Newsweek as one of the 50 most influential American rabbis, recently told his congregation that he's suffering from bipolar disorder.<br /><br />A source told us: "He's divorcing his fourth wife. He's a great leader in the Jewish community, he's just not very good at marriage.<br /><br />"He met Gitty after he was separated from Tobi and they are spending time together."<br /><br />Schneier and his wife have homes in Westhampton Beach and Manhattan. Tobi famously arranged for a 400-pound endangered Asian lion called "Rabbi Marc" to be donated to the Jerusalem Biblical Zoo in Schneier's honor for his 50th birthday.<br /><br />A spokesman for Rabbi Schneier, Ken Sunshine, said: "Marc Schneier is a renowned worldwide leader, and a pioneer in Muslim-Jewish relations. He has been dealing with a very serious illness, and we will have no comment on rumor or innuendo."<br /><br />Calls to lawyers for Rubinstein-Schneier were not returned.Rabbi Marc Schneierhttp://www.nypost.com/p/pagesix/famed_rabbi_wife_splitting_BQiuA67fqLpdOVR7Ru53nNnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21519732.post-896970369534443752010-06-27T14:43:47.514-04:002010-06-27T14:43:47.514-04:00http://chabad.info/index.php?url=article_en&id...http://chabad.info/index.php?url=article_en&id=19315<br /><br />That's right Arthur.

They have not said whether the archbishop himself is under investigation.<br /><br />Police arrived at church headquarters in Brussels as the bishops were starting their monthly meeting and detained them and their staff for nine hours.<br /><br />On Saturday, the Vatican secretary of state, Cardinal Tarcisio Bertone, called the detention of bishops “serious and unbelievable” and compared the police tactics to those of Communist regimes. He also said that the bishops had been deprived of food and water during their detention.Jacob Perlowhttp://www.nytimes.com/2010/06/28/world/europe/28vatican.html?hpnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21519732.post-76334661430429976902010-06-27T13:24:27.038-04:002010-06-27T13:24:27.038-04:00What was the bail violations?

Davide Cito, a professor of canon law at Opus Dei’s University of the Holy Cross in Rome, noted that in Italy, members of the Mafia were often applauded by their supporters when they were freed from prison. “People lack the force to be outraged at evil,” Father Cito added dispiritedly. “If we don’t have zero tolerance for Mafiosi, how can we have it for priests?”Talmidei Margonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21519732.post-30333347575889650792010-06-27T08:31:21.247-04:002010-06-27T08:31:21.247-04:00http://www.nytimes.com/2010/06/27/world/europe/27v...http://www.nytimes.com/2010/06/27/world/europe/27vatican.html<br /><br />One afternoon last month, a rare thing happened in Rome’s main courthouse: for perhaps the first time ever, an Italian bishop took the witness stand in the case of a priest accused of the sexual abuse of children.<br /><br />Soon after, another rare thing happened. The leader of the Italian bishops’ conference acknowledged at a news conference that it was “possible” that bishops in Italy had covered up abuse, while his deputy said that in the past decade, 100 Italian priests had faced church trials in connection with the sexual abuse of minors.<br /><br />The remarks were the first time the bishops’ conference had ever publicly quantified the number of Italian cases — and one of the few where it answered reporters’ questions on the matter.<br /><br />In Italy, the “ombra del cupolone,” or shadow of the dome of St. Peter’s, reaches far, and the church has long maintained a forceful grip on public life, if not in Italians’ private lives. But slowly, the sexual abuse crisis that has stirred up Europe in recent months has begun to take root in the Vatican’s backyard.<br /><br />While Italy still falls short on transparency in both state and church, observers say a new chapter may be beginning in which the once taboo topic of sexual abuse by priests is slowly entering the national conversation.<br /><br />“We’re less inhibited, not as cautious about talking about it as in the past,” said Sandro Magister, a veteran Vatican journalist in Italy. “There’s been a kind of contagion from other countries” where it was openly discussed, he added.Moetzes Resign!noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21519732.post-31492548256173753792010-06-27T07:42:37.885-04:002010-06-27T07:42:37.885-04:00What was the bail violations?What was the bail violations?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21519732.post-73099558845315389982010-06-27T02:27:40.210-04:002010-06-27T02:27:40.210-04:00a BISSEL seichel
