The well-known Maggid, HaRav Baruch Rosenbloom, spoke in his weekly shiur last week about how the entire country is trembling at the threats of Iran and its proxy Hezbollah to attack Israel.
“The entire country is tense,” he said. “When will Nasrallah throw missiles at us? What happened suddenly? An entire country is awaiting ‘every scenario.’ Everyone is trembling from fear.”
“When did this entire scenario start with Iran? When the Attorney-General issued an order to send draft notices to bnei yeshivos. Why? Because Hakadosh Baruch Hu has the Kodesh Hakedoshim, the Torah. They are trying to take the bnei yeshivos from the Kodesh Hakedoshim.”

He’s absolutely right, the timing is not coincidence. You want to butcher the Learners of Torah, you’ll end up butchering your own country. I’m just hoping they start with her
i think you missed the point, his point was that our enemies have Hashem’s name on their lips while we don’t mention Hashem, we don’t remember Hashem. we have to be mekadeish Shem SHomayim more.
you mentioned a snippet of his drasha, perhaps totally irrelevant to our avodas Hashem (and just incites more sinas chinam against a jewish woman, as evil as her actions may be)
It is a Chilul Kvod Shomayim to “understand“ the ways of Hkb”h, exactly, so that it supports our personal benefits.
“When did this entire scenario start with Iran? When the Attorney-General issued an order to send draft notices to bnei yeshivos”
Huhh??? Perhaps the Rav doesn’t read a newspaper or watch TV news but this “scenario with Iran” and the immediate likelihood of a retaliatory attack is linked to the decision by Netanyahu to authorize the assassination of the Hamas political leader while he was attending the inauguration of the new President of Iran.
was moshe rabbeinu exempt from the army? couldn’t he stay home and study torah, instead of “going out” to the war with amalek? surprisingly, the torah itself doesn’t include the study of torah as one of the four reasons not to join the army. not even for moshe rabbeinu.
In the clip, the rabbi doesn’t mention one word about the attorney general
Ki lo machshevosai machshivosaichem tells us that we are not greater than Moshe and cannot know the ways of HKBH.
The problem with this nonsense of course, is that bnei torah are as much in danger as the ag yimach shmoh vshem zichroh.
Of course if hizbola missile do klal yisroel a favor and in the words of R Elozor b R Shimon “cut the grass” and remove the reshoim from our midst exclusively I will happily admit that R Boruch was right and I was wrong.
We can thank hamas for destroying some of the eirev rav amolek in Beeri kfar aza etc and some are suffering to this day and that was and is beautiful mamesh. But some Jews – got mixed in as well so overall it was a tragedy. But we can still thank hashem for the evil that Hamas took out.
Dear yehonatan, I understand but our enemies use it for destruction, not for positivity. Also , may I remind that their cry Allah akbar on Oct 7 and on all se#ual crimes during the decades, which are so low that we can’t describe here in YWN
