NO! This war is not primarily Bibi’s or the Coalition’s fault. NO, the Coalition has NOT done “crazy damage!” The Generals of the IDF High Command bear the Primary and Ultimate responsibility for 7 October and for residents of the north and the Gaza border towns being holed up in hotels paid for by the Government. The IDF High Command is Primarily responsible for 7 October. That is where Major Change Must occur — in the IDF High Command. There is a word they use regarding sports teams which I can’t recall just now. But the word relates to a collective mindset, psychology, attitude and applies to a military high command. They either have no concept as to how to win, or their lust for power and the continuance of such power that they would jeopardize Israel’s security in the name of perpetuating their sector’s hold on power at all costs. Gotta wonder why General Winter hit the glass ceiling regarding promotions and was retired. read more

Iran’s Attempted Attack on Israel Fails Big-Time

moshe

Everyone must have seen the reports that 99% of Iranian drones, missiles and airborne devices from Yemen were downed by Israel’s air defenses and allied air forces. Of the few that penetrated Israeli air space, only minor, insignificant damage was done to one air force base.

But far less publicized was this: US Officials: Half of the Iranian Missiles Failed

US officials stated that half of the missiles launched by Iran at Israel either failed to launch or crashed before reaching their target.

Israel’s War vs Islamic Wild Beast Terrorists in a Minute

Israel’s War vs Islamic Wild Beast Terrorists in a Minute

by Moshe Burt

Negotiations leading to partial return of some, or for that matter all, of the hostages in exchange for hundreds of terrorists = Surrender and Appeasement. Israel’s victory is ONLY defined as eradication of Hamas and All other Gazan Terror groups as well as IDF (Israel Defense Forces) Liberation of All hostages, as they did at Entebbe on July 4, 1976.

And accusations of Israel “murdering” “innocent” Gaza civilians: It is a time of war which Israel did not start, nor did Israel instigate. Israel could in no way even conceive of the barbaric atrocities of Hamas. Nor would they intentionally seize, murder, rape and behead an adversary’s civilians, as Hamas did to Jewish civilians. read more

Parshat Shelach and American Jewry in 5780

Parshat Shelach and American Jewry in 5780

by Moshe Burt

This is a special D’var Torah on Parshat Shelach written due to the explosion of violence in the United States, allegedly due to the killing of George Lloyd, and the subsequent shooting and alleged killing by Atlanta police of Rayshard Brooks.

I am writing in the first person due to what I feel is the gravity of the situation for American Jewry.

In reality, however, the seeds of this violence — the rioting, looting, burning and killing — including its anti-semitic and anti-Israel aspects, have been planted, nurtured and reaped over decades in America’s leftist-Democrat-socialist dominated largest cities, in the country’s universities; on their campuses, among the professors, among student body councils, on pro-sports athletic fields and team managements and in America public schools where young minds are being indoctrinated in socialism, identity politics, trans-genderism and the like almost from the cradle. read more

Justice Barak, Father of Political Correctness: ‘Arabs are Our Brothers’

Barak: The Arabs Living Among Us Are Equal in All Respects

Fill Text;

Outgoing High Court President Aaron Barak in his remarks on Thursday stated, “Arabs living among us are our brothers, equal in all respects.”

In his words, “a democracy is not just a matter of privileges, but responsibilities as well. In a democracy, the citizen must ask what he can do for his country.”

See also: Outgoing Justice Barak: ‘Arabs are Our Brothers‘

Commentary;

Outgoing High Court Presdent Aaron Barak, the father of political correctness, states that Israel’s Arabs are “equal in all respects” to the Jews. That means, of course that equality = preferential. Preferential meaning that a Jew’s inalienable rights in Torah in Eretz Yisrael are subserviant at best to the Arabs. read more
