Parsha Korach 5767: Leadership; National Responsibility vs the Euphemisms of Self-Interest

by Moshe Burt

This Parsha HaShevua may seem to the reader a continuation of Parsha Shelach. This is done by intention because it seems very much as if Korach and his attempted power grab are a logical aftermath of the denial of Eetz Yisrael by 10 of the 12 miraglim (spies).

The Sefer “Torah Gems” by Aharon Yaakov Greenberg states the following thought; “Now took Korach…”; that Korach was blessed with many positive attributes: fine lineage, wisdom, qualities worthy of a leader of B’nai Yisrael. “‘Now took Korach — he took himself.’ He did not wait until he was offered the leadership, but he sought to take it by force. That is why he is not worthy of it.” (Torah Gems, by Aharon Yaakov Greenberg, Parsha Korach, Volume 3, page 79.) read more

Parsha Shelach and Political Abrogation of Mutual Responsibility — One for His Brother

Echoes of Joshua’s Spies, by Israel Harel (Haaretz)

“The government did not assert, as it should have, the national rights of the Jewish people over its liberated homeland. It did not even treat them in this way, as it should have from a historical perspective. ‘Bargaining chips,’ it called them.”

“By relying on this status, relating to areas of the homeland as bargaining chips, for 40 years most of our troubles and evils have come to us: the Yom Kippur War, the intifada, the terror war of September 2000, the deep rift among the people and the distancing of most of the world from identifying with Israel.” read more

Supporting Peres: The Hypocracy of Greed of “Religious” Parties and their Leaders

The Shas party and its leader’s support for Shimon Peres’ once again exposes their hypocracy; the deep disparity between their professed Torah values Torah values (i.e. promissing “OLam Haba” in campaigning for votes) vs their political actions; the shameful corruption and hypocracy of greed visible for all to see. What’s in it for me? What’s in it for me?

And by no means is Shas alone. It is indeed a study in the concept of “Divide and Conquer” how ALL of the religious alignments, Shas, Aguda (Gimmel) and Mafdal will find religious values expedient vs the “almighty” $$ or NIS for THEIR institutions and will fall all over themselves at any Regime “promise” or “guarantee,” most which are never kept. read more

Leftist MSM Complicity With Arab Propaganda, Terror Campaigns

Commentary;

On Tuesday, this author posted to the blog a piece relating how leftist revisionist propaganda which misrepresents and historically alters the history of the Six Day War dovetails with the dual Arab propaganda campaigns designed to soften up Israel and increase her vulnerability in preparation for the final war to decimate the Jews.

This article excerpted in part below, is a paradigm of incideous, misleading and revisionist leftist, MSM (mainstream media) endoctrination and brainwashing regarding the Six day War which is complicit with Arab, Islamic strategy, mission and goals. This complicity omits and totally leaves Shemayim and Torah out of the loop, out of the equation. read more
