The left-wing Rabbis for Ceasefire group organized a rally last week that was attended by Democratic Rep. Cori Bush, during which they davened Shacharis outside the US Capitol and read the Torah.
As the video of the rally shows [which was not included due to the prohibition of Kol Isha], the woman reading the Torah found herself in a terrible dilemma as the pessukim she was reading from in Bereishis included the passage in which Hashem spoke to Yitzchak Avinu and promised him that he will give Eretz Yisrael to his children as He swore to Avraham Avinu.
How could she say such words at a left-wing rally? Would that mean that Israel isn’t really an “occupier” and it doesn’t practice “apartheid?” But then why would Hamas want to kill Jews?
What did she do? She simply lowered her voice to a whisper when she reached the words: כִּֽי־לְךָ֣ וּלְזַרְעֲךָ֗ אֶתֵּן֙ אֶת־כָּל־הָֽאֲרָצֹ֣ת הָאֵ֔ל. And then she did it again when she got to the words: וְנָתַתִּ֣י לְזַרְעֲךָ֔ אֵ֥ת כָּל־הָֽאֲרָצֹ֖ת הָאֵ֑ל.”
As the saying goes: “Liberalism is a mental disorder.”

Leining isn’t kol Isha
They’re wearing masks.. I can’t get past that 😂
Clowns
Maybe some of these female rabbis would be a shiduch for Weiss and his Niturei Karta nutcases.
the whole group has problems.
Zaltz: a woman reading the Torah isn’t leining…
Actually, between me and you, we were sent into galus now. The promise of those Pesukim does not apply to galus.
When we do teshuvah, immediately will be ובא לציון גואל ולשבי פשע וגו׳.
She is a melumedes, you gotta admit, chapping on the spot what she in laining 🙂
@Chavasdaaas
😂
@zaltzvasser the Torah is read with a veterinary specific melody which makes it so.
being myself a female, i actually did listen to it and its more sad and cry able than laughable
You give them too much credit. They don’t even know what they are saying.
despicable lowlifes not even laughable how can u even say such things
What would be laughable – if it weren’t so sad – is the Zionism in this story. The Zionists are imposters, and have nothing to do with that passuk.
Until Hashem expelled us – twice – we did indeed have that land. When Mashiach comes, we will indeed have that land.
Between those two points, we are allowed to individually live there if the gentiles permit, but are in no way permitted to fight the gentiles and create a State there (two separate problems) both of which and more the wicked Zionists did to create their State of Israel.
Women are not reading torah in public because of bizayon caused by men not being able to. In this tzibur, presumably men are amei Haaretz, so the lady correctly stepped up to be an ish bemakom she ein ish, so her laining is not kol Isha, especially if she whispered. I presume when it comes to klalot, she will happily read them aloud.

1] … no way permitted to …. create a State there ….

probably you meant create a state anywhere
===========================================
2] …. we are allowed to individually live there if the gentiles permit …

Baal Shevet Halevi immigrated to Erets Yisra’el without permission of the authorities .
This is a well known fact .
Can you reconcile this ?
===========================================
3] … but are in no way permitted to fight the gentiles and create a State there …

Acording to Avne Nezer [end of YD] it seems that this is permitted al pi halacha.
So your statement here should be qualified , then .
It is not according to all shitot.
