    When I was a kid, I walked to school uphill both ways in the snow, with no shoes or jacket.

    What in the world?

    When I was a kid kid’s shoes were confiscated as a punishment, and I remember kids without shoes on the school bus – this was before people had Shabbos shoes – but it was never done in bad weather or snow.

    BTW there was an Israeli “yoreid” with us, and I remember he was very unbothered about losing his shoes, and he would play soccer without them

    Yidden are all really amazing

    an Israeli was telling me recently that he cannot beleive how he walks into a home in the US and walks out a minute later with a generous donation ….

    I think chabad are super super special,

    do an inordinate amount of chessed

    and are really moiser nefesh for hashem and yahadus

    the kehillas yaakov in his last siman on kiddushin discusses this situation

    if only one of a person’s numerous anccestors were mazane they are mazerim

    If there was one mamzer about a millenium ago then we all mamzeirim

    Nonetheless we are not choishesh

    and the last mishna in eidiyois says that eliyohu hanovi will not be meracheik the unknown

    R’ Menashe Klein also dealt extensively with this topic and basically says that Hashme will never allow it to happen

    I thought that the חכם צבי was Rov of the קהיךות אה”ו Altona Hamburg Wurzburg, which are in west Germany

    Grandpa Zushy [not the rebbe R’ zusha, his gggs and my ggf] grew up near Lemberg, and he related that they once brought an African guy to advertise shoe polish. Many people made a brocho משנה הבריות but Grandpa was convinced it was just shoe polish and didn’t. Only later in life did he realize that it was for real.

    Additionally the insertion of micro chips in people has enabled Mr. Gates to control the weather, therefore arranging snow storms in March in both New York today and Yerushalayim later this week.

    all this is clearly written in my sefer Noam Zusha which i published a few years ago. [Although no on had seen the sefer at the time, you can check the shaar blattt, it clearly says I published it five years to the day before the “discovery” of the micro chip vaccine.

    in reply to: Book on R’ Yitzchok Scheiner #2068656

    p’shat is poshut

    the “vaccine” is really a micro chip containing a GPS reader, and includes a poison that can be released at Bill Gates decision.

    Since Bil gates is a computer mangate, it is worth his while to kill off a massive proportion of peole thereby seriousy lowing real estate prices, bankrupting other mangates, and ensuring a younger median of populaton which will cause computer usage and dependency to soar.

    In cahoots with R’ Zlotowitz and R’ Seltzer he publishes a book insisting that a perfectly healthy man died from covid, thereby encouraging people to take the microchip vaccine. Since Detroit has lower levels of vaccine he therefore decided to include a chapter abut a moissad in Detroit thereby encouraging detroiters to buy the book.

    Additionally he feels that if people from Detroit will read the book it will cause lower producitivity and auto construction, thereby offsetting the effects of climate change which were reallly the prime purpose of the Russia – Ukraine war.

    He agreed with Artscroll that he will allow a picture of R’ Yitzchok with Mr. Torgow – who is a board member of Artscroll/mesoira, – in return for being aloowed to indocrinate the public with a book about a healthy person who died from Covid.

    He also wanted to include a picture of himself with R’ Yitzchok, and even photoshopped one, but then R’ Zlotowitz explained that this will be counter porductive to the pro microchip program as someone on YWN might work it all out.

    He is also planning about the dynamic Rabbi Goldstein, however he wants to wait for a generation who will be able to be indocrinated that Rabbi Goldstein too died from Corona.

    Despite all the above our gedoilim {maran R’ Gershon eidelstein, Maran HaGraCH Kanievsky and many admoirim] that one should still allow oneself to receive the microchip, since after all hundreds of millions have received it and perhaps twenty have died from myocarditis, and they realize it is unlikely that Bill Gates will give the whole world myocarditis at the same moment.

    My opinion;

    He is not a coward.

    He may be focused on is ego,

    he may be very selfish

    And he may not have the best middos

    but nonetheless,

    he is not a coward. It is simply the wrong word. He stood up to many things, including UNWRA, the UN, much of the press, enmity, slander etc ….

    Here in E.Israel there is a rumor going round, that American intelligence heard about a potential invasion, Trumo flew to moscow and met Putin בארבע עינים and told him that if he invades the US might just bomb Moscow.

    Call Biden any positive title you like, someone who has power but it is obviously unprepared to use it loses his advantage, and to my mind that is a level of cowardice.

    In terms o diplomacy, too, Trump was able to negotiate from an advantage, whicBiden doesn’t have.

    I understand that there might be much which I don’t lnow about, and I really do not view Trump as a role model, nonetheless I feel that cowrd is notthe right adjective.

    with all due respect, although i cannot deny the facts you are saying, i don’t know if anyone in our generation can be masig the cheshboinois of shmonayim.

    One can never compare anything a yid does – even a mundane act as eating or sleeping – to things done a goy.

    Therefore one cannot make a comparison between a goyishe chuga and anything done by yidden.

    Additionally the yidden who travel are basing themselves on the teachings of a gadol – R’ Nachman, and have included many Gedoilei Yisoel – including R’ yaakov Meir Shechter and R’ Tzvi Cheshin shlit”a

    I sure hope your story isn’t true. It’s really disgusting to humiliate a kid that way. Also i think school;s discipline should be limited to school time, anything that goes out of the school is overstepping the boundaries.

    One of my nephews in a chasiddishe school, where if they come in sneakers they have to take them off for davvening. I don;t think it is such a bad idea by itself, since it teaches them ideas of kovoid hateffila.

    It was a bit not fair to my nephew, because he misplaced his shoes, and he doesn;t have shabbos shoes, [the cause for another thread on YWN], and after a couple of days the rebbi took away his shoes for a recess too.

    A fellow in my school once put up a see through oak tag gainst a wall and scribbled over it. The principal came in and asked who wrote on the wall, so this guy was like it’s me, so the principal started shouting at him, and the principal says your going to pay to ahve it removed, so he said no problem, and he sauntered over to the wall and removed the oaktag.

    The principal already had the guys shoes, since he had come lat to school tha day, and he didn;t give them back to him, so he had go home in his socks.

    Shimon Peres definitely comes from lithuanina background – not Alexander chassidim.

    Yitzchok Rabin and Ya’ir lapid are both from chassidic dynasties, And Rivlin, although more distanly connected is an tenth generation descendant of the baal hatanya. He actually spoke at a labuvitch ceremony once on yat teves in binyanei ha’oomah.

    I think since many of our gedoilim were blessed with unusaul talents and/or tremendous determination and persistence it makes sense tha there fried out einiklach ended up much further in life.

    Sheim mi’shmuel explains [not on this specific question] that the people Yaakov hinted to are those who had middos that reflected on yaakov’s own hcildren.

    Efraim is yehoishua, efraim learnt by yaakov, while yehoishua was the ultimate tlamud of moishe, compared to the moon which receives light.

    Shimshon was don, acheiving great things even when all looks hopeless, chushim, me’asef lekol hamachanois, etc…

    Dovid and Yehuda are malchus. {see ramban as to sho’ul)

    One can suggest that yaakov gabe the direct brocha to levi, that of ??? ?????? ????? which obviously includes moishe

    Come on guys.

    Churchill was responsible for saving much of the world. If not for him Englnad would have surrendered and who knows what would have happened.

    I still remember one of the chochuve morei hoira’ah in London saying a few words when the british marked fifty years since WWII.

    Whether he was an antisemite has long been debated – although everyone agrees that his foreign minister [anthony Eden] and his succesor [Clement Atlee] were. However even if he was wwe still owe him a huge debt of hakoras hatoiv.

    Mandela undoubtedly acheived something – but on a much smaller scale. People outside S/a have little to do with his acheivements. we do not deny what he did, and at least i personally respect him for it, but we also remember that he gave legitimicy to Arafat, and was one of the first world leaders to do so.

    The BBc bias lies not only in the way it reports, but WHAT it reports. They failed to report the soldier being killled in it’s own right, only mentioning it when israel retaliated.

    But even say the Iran deal, when they mentioned Netanyahu opposition they made it like his main problem is the new kesher between US and Iran and that the us is less responsible for israeli security. They didn’t even bother informing the public about the obvious concern that absolutely no supervision was introduced for any sites other than those the g6 have already found out about – and even those the us only knows about through info from iran’s internal opposition.

    That is a basic point missing in the deal, and when one thinkks about it one relises that Obama is probably nuts, but the BBC simply didn’t find it necasary to tell the public

    Rabbi of berlin and yihcusdik:

    If i understood R’ miller zatzal correctly he was saying that although the torah undoubtedly includes a mitzva of kibbush ha’aretz, nonetheless that mitzvah is limited to a time when we it is clearly rotzoin hashem, additionally the matoro must be not only kibbush but also malchus beis dovid and a beis hamidkosh.

    No one is chas vesholom suggesting a new religion, take a look for instance at the ramban in mitzva 4 she’shocho harov, etc… just to quote r’ moishe sherer, zion yes, zionism not.

    Hakoton:

    I feel much of r’ wasserman;s position has been taken out of context. He waas not chas vesholom suggesting that there is no mitzva of kibbush ha’aretz in the right times, rather he was saying that making it the main mitzva in the toira and denying the purpose of other mitzvois is avoida zoro.

    Jewish feminist:

    Your moshol is very sweet, but at least in the leter writer’s opinion, the moshol is that of a man drowning, who, when someone offered him a rope to enable him to stay alive in the water accepted it, when asked why he didn’t appreciate he said, “you sent a rope because you wanted to fish, and hey, it was you who threw me in the water in the first place.”

    Yichusdik:

    I clearly heard R’ avidgor miller say that k’lal yisroel have ZERO nationalistic aspirations OTHER than those that are clearly rotoin hashem. I am happy to hear if other gedoilim held differently, but it has little bearing on whether those who are opposed to basic idea of a jewish owe hakoras hatoiv to soldiers.
