    I have responded rather harshly to the moderator because of his extremely foolish response, so I doubt it will be shown here.

    Everyone should google ‘murder of Yoel kiryat shmona’ and you’ll see endless articles from all the mainstream Israeli publications

    I have tried again to post my comment. I will just say that there is absolutely no reason to censor this, other than 100% purely unadulterated selfish agendas on ywn’s part. It’s actually quite comically silly, but also sickening. Just because ywn failed to cover the hate crime and murder of an 18 year old Jewish immigrant

    I am not a news moderator.  Your accusations make no sense. You take no consideration to verification, presentation, and non news values. Sorry you find it funny.

    I did not expect my story to be censored. Maybe it’s because ywn completely overlooked it when it happened, even though it had fairly significant coverage from mainstream Israeli news sites

    If you’re trying to be mekayem michiyas amalek by squashing, you may need to be sitting down.

    Honestly, after a certain point this stops being hisdabkus betalmidei chachamim and starts to be more of a nebach form of paparazzi. If you just want to nose about other people, there are numerous way more entertaining things to involve yourselves in

    @moishe1977 absolutely no apologies. You brought a very complex and serious halacha question to a forum that’s almost exclusively for schmoozing purposes. It’s called the coffee room for a reason. I immediately assumed you were trolling or even worse, mocking halacha.

    Could you imagine if I presented an extremely intricate medical question here?

    Also, it doesn’t seem to me that you’re very orthodox or knowledgeable of halacha practice. What in the world does glass have anything to do with the validity of a marriage? That’s like asking if I forgot my tie kerchief, can I still legally drive

    This has to be one of the most pointless threads of all time. What exactly is your desired purpose of posting this? If this is a real case, you need to consult the relevant halachic authorities. You won’t receive any wise information on the matter from the coffee room.
    If you were just wondering, well then keep wondering. I have much better and more entertaining theoretical halachic quandaries

    If you have thousands of dollars in credit card debt, consider bankruptcy. It’s a way better option than closing your accounts or negotiating your rate. Declaring bankruptcy can actually raise your credit score because you can’t do it again for at least another 7 years

    That’s like saying I don’t feel like eating matzah on pesach because one time somewhere someone choked a little. Your example of how it’s better to divorce doesn’t make much sense. edited

    Biden will choose someone we’ve never heard of as his running mate, which will give a greatly needed boost to his campaign. Biden will die just mere weeks before inauguration, so Haris will be sworn in. With cruel irony, she will be compelled to step aside for the vp turned president chosen in her stead. Meanwhile, Trump will try to flee the country for fear of a new unrelenting attorney general. He may even attempt to set up his own government in exile, claiming it to be the legitimate power.

    The fact that nothing ‘exceptional’ happened doesn’t mean that they weren’t good years. Also, many times the bad that occurred in a given year is not known until events years later. As for having tekios in the mikdash, who says that’s enough to replace the missing tekios for the rest of klal yisrael?

    J.K. Rowling must definitely have some experience with orthodox Jews. The story rings very familiar with the unique reality of the frum world.
    From my perspective, it’s about a boy who’s parents died al kiddush… He gets sent off to the world’s greatest rosh yeshiva, he learns to shteig even through all of the problems surrounding him. He finally faces the ultimate test in order to protect the magic olam before becoming the gadol hador himself

    When they leave, they won’t cripple the economy. They will unleash it from their shackles. They currently place a choke on the economy amd ensure all the wealth goes to themselves. This is common is many small developing countries, and when the upper classes are toppled everyone else builds and thrives

    Here’s a little secret. If you are able to get TLC license plates for your car, and you get a TLC driver license (tlc is for those who drive car service or uber) then you will be paying much less for insurance. You wouldn’t be buying from the regular companies like geico. You need to have special TLC insurance from select companies, but the highest they charge for anyone regardless of factors is $300 per month and it doesn’t go up from there. I used an online company called inshur.

    The last I heard is that the city isn’t issuing new tlc plates anymore except for fully electric vehicles, but I haven’t checked recently. It could be worth it to get a tesla just for this

    @ujm Turkish airlines is very good, but Istanbul airport is a complete wreck. It is the worst airport I’ve been to, and it’s extremely chaotic. There’s absolutely no order. And Turkey is not a good country to spend time in jail. They can arrest anyone on a whim
