Number Of Hezbollah Casualties In Pages Explosion Rises To 3,800“

@somejewiknow:
You remind me (& all of us) of that person from the town of Chelm, who went to the big city to acquire wisdom. When he arrived to the town square he stopped at one of the stalls in the market. He started a conversation with the merchant. Telling him that hails from Chelm and he came to acquire wisdom. the merchant told him that for Ten rubles he is ready to teach him a trick. the chelm’er gladly paid the Ten Rubles. The merchant put his own hand down on the table. he told the Chelm’er to punch him hard with his fist. The Chelm’er complied. When the merchant pulled his hand away quickly the Chelm’er got his knuckles hurt.
Chelm’er goes back home. His friend asked him…NU, What did you learn in the big town. First get me a table. Friend says there’s no table. Chelm’er puts his hand up against his nose…Punch my hand hard. Chelm’er pulls his hand away auickly. He got his nose punched very hard…!
The story is a bit long. But everyone gets the point. If you’re happy that the “Zionists got punished”, you’re only hurting yourself. Your own nose is knocked out of shape…LOL…!
Shoot them out of the sky. They are potentially in the act of committing a henious crime. This is war time: first shoot and them investigate.
To Sketch Master:
You wrote a nice comment there.
I have a funny feeling that some of the people that can write nasty comments about Zionists getting killed, they are the same guys who travel to Iran and kiss all the top people in the government. I don’t know for sure if this guy is connected to Iran, but in general when you meet someone who tells you that he is excited that Jews are getting beheaded and burnt alive in the ovens, this guy is one day going to get it big. Even the 80% who never left Mitzraim, they were 100 billion times better than these rotten animals who go to Iran and kiss and hug all the big terrorists.
To the people who are writing comments against the Israeli army:
I read in a Sefer different stories about the
חורבן בית שני
To make a long story short, during the Churban while the gentiles were tearing us to pieces, there were a number of Jewish people that were attacking other Jewish people, literally simultaneously, the gentiles were smashing us and common sense would tell us that all the Jewish people should unite and fight together one common enemy. Instead what happened, some Jewish people chose to attack other Jewish people at the exact same time when the gentiles were attacking us.
From the comments above I can see very clearly that history repeats itself.
Let us not forget, that when Hitler killed 6 million Yidden, he took everyone, he didn’t care if you were Satmar, Lubavitch, Bobov, Belz, Gur, Breslov, Nusach Ashkenaz, Nusach Sefard, he couldn’t care less, if you had Jewish blood, you were shoved into cattle cars, once you got shoved into a cattle car, you were not physically able to hurt another Yid. So I ask you, was it really worth it to hurt so many Yidden during the past 30 years and now you find yourself in a cattle car on the way to Auschwitz????????????
This is what happened by the
חורבן בית שני
————
This is what happened in Europe during the years of 1936, 1937,1938 and etc. Kristal Nacht was the first punishment.
This is exactly was is happening today 2024- history repeats itself.
@Avraham:
Harav Amnon Yitzchak once, in an argument with one of these criminally insane animals predicted that one day their Arab friends will (ch”v)kill them .ו
Israel is making every mistake in the book we have no right to bomb Iran nukes or to not surrender for prisoner exchange with gaza and to keep on killing purely innocent people if their leaders believe in a monetary and better life conflict on the Moslem belief that they are now the Jews with rights to the land that was stolen from them and they are getting discriminated from a paper dirty USA money that is haughtiness but the people that will be there in the last and end when the state of Israel is no longer maybe are the anti zionist that hurt nothing and nobody but peoples wrong dreams cause the evil state will not bring us close to any moshiach only bad stuff no neshamah will come to the geulah with a smell of the state of hellinisum and these people that know they are Jewish and can get killed might be the last people in Jerusalem that they will let stay there and this is saving those children that come from arab marriage that no person can talk about but recently saw a video on YouTube of the Israeli army carrying a dead body out of a old house in a Palestinian village probably from a kidnapping
This had to write in separate comment on the last thing realize that in the mikvah the people but on the tzitzose and shirt first underwear come after that
I’m sick of these people. I mean, like I’ve been sick of them from day one, but it’s enough already. 😞
It’s not that many people
