The recent visit of the Neturei Karta to Iran and the swaths of condemnations by Hareidi publications of this act illustrate to me the impossible situation the mainstream Hareidim have arrived at.
If they root for the Arabs, Jews die. If they root for the Jews, they are basically rooting for the success of the state which they despise so much since the state is doing most of the fighting.
So what do they do? I would assume that most are davening for some sort of open miracle that would somehow quietly and peacefully dissolve the state. However, any ideology that relies on Nisim Geluim leKatchila is an impoverished one which has no real plan for the future and nothing more to offer than depressing passivity.
Oh well, what am I complaining about? Every community has their problems – its just that this ones looks like a really big one to me.
It’s time to come clean. After using Stumble Upon to check out other sites, I ran across quite a few conspiracy sites. Most of them had to do with Jews. I felt a huge wave of shame overcome me. How did the truth get discovered? I am so distraught, I have decided to come clean.
The Jews are responsible for everything bad in the world. If you read every other word of our holy text the Protocols of Zion you can clearly see that we Jews founded the Illuminati alongside Bolshevism to cover up the faked moon landing.
Now stay with me here. Israel, founded by the Rothschilds, was secretly funded by the Masons, who, as an anti-Christian organization, had Jesus crucified for sell retail to the “goyim.”
Here’s where it gets scary. We killed Paul McCartney in 1966 and replaced him with an exact duplicate. Why? He knew that the aliens who landed in Roswell were Zionist slumlords trying to occupy the Navajo Nation. Of course, we are not the original Jews. We are Khazars who genetically altered our DNA to look like the Ancient Palestinian People whose land we now occupy in order to Judaize Al Aqsa , a place that has no particular connection to us whatsoever. Fact is, the real Jews are the British. Particularly the Welsh and some of the people in the East Side of Royal Tunbridge Wells.
Now, as you know, Passover is coming. Time to feast on some gentile children’s blood! In fact, my Bubbie’s recipe is as follows:
Matzoh
Six cups flour (all purpose)
Four cups water (do NOT take from the wells we poisoned!)
Two cups gentile blood (preferably child. It’s more fresh)
(Side note: Happy Easter to all my Catholic friends who will be feasting on the blood and flesh of Jew through transubstantiation. Bon Appetite!)
Back to the truth. As Communists we decided to set up the Federal Reserve to oppress the poor. Why? We like to keep you on your toes. We killed Kennedy, Lincoln, Jesus, Buddha, Gandhi, Mark Twain, Julius Caesar, Atlantis, bell bottoms, Arafat (well, AIDS killed him, but we gave him the young infected boy) and finally Abel (we traveled back in time for that one). Jimmy Hoffa is buried in Tel Aviv (AKA occupied Palestine.)
My uncle Abe worked at the hospital in Hawaii where Obama was born. Frequently he would destroy birth certificates just IN CASE they would want to run for office when they were adults. Boy, was he a forward thinker!
We are Communists and yet we are greedy Capitalists. We are racist and xenophobic and yet we forced the Civil Rights Movement and desegregation on the South. We are all of European stock, even our brothers and sisters from Yemen and Ethiopia. We are clannish and hate all gentiles though we are Masonic an organization that teaches brotherhood among all men.
Last but not least: We flew all the planes into the Twin Towers after the secret message was sent out for all Jews to stay home on 9/11. We behead infidels. We riot in the street. We openly declare that we want to subject the world to Sharia Halacha. We blow up Buddha statues. We destroy Hindu Temples. We occupy Mecca and Medina and refuse to let Muslims worship at their holiest site and deny their connection to the land. We kill our daughters when they date. We chop off the hands of thieves.
הקריטריון לתשלום שכר בתאגיד צריך להיות תרומתו של העובד להפקת הרווחים, שמהם ניתן לשלם שכר. אם החברה לא מצליחה, לא מייצרת ומוכרת, ורק מפסידה כסף אז אין מה לחלק. לכן קודם כל: הייצור והרווח. יש לשער שבעל המפעל, החברה או התאגיד, לא היה משלם למנהל משכורת גבוהה אם היה יכול למצוא מנהל אחר שמצליח לנהל באותה צורה (טובה) ולהפיק אותו רווח ומסתפק במשכורת יותר נמוכה. בעל מפעל לא משלם משכורת גבוהה רק בזכות העיניים היפות של המנהל. אם בעל העסק משלם משכורת גבוהה למנהל זה כנראה כי הוא מעריך שהמנהל “שווה את זה” כלומר – הוא מפיק עבורו רווח – ומנהל אחר, יותר “זול”, לא היה מצליח לייצר אותו רווח.
כנ”ל העובד. בעל המפעל, או העסק, משלם משכורות לעובדים במקצועות השונים ובדרגות השונות (לאו דווקא תמיד שכר מינימום) לפי הידע והמיומנות שלהם והתרומה שהם תורמים לשגשוג המפעל ויצירת רווחים. אין לו סיבה לשלם משכורת גבוהה לעובד שאינו תורם הרבה למפעל – רק בגלל שהעובד “זקוק לכסף” (מי לא זקוק?). העובד – שחושב שהוא אינו מקבל מספיק, על פי תרומתו למפעל, יכול לבקש תוספת ולאיים לעזוב. בעל המפעל צריך לשקול אם “שווה לו” (מבחינת עבודת המפעל ורווחיותו) לשלם את המשכורת הגבוהה יותר – או שמא כדאי לו לחפש עובד אחר… (עובד חדש צריך להכשיר, ולעולם לא יודעים מראש כמה הוא באמת יתרום).
החופש הזה נתון לעובד ולמנהל כאחד – אם הוא מרגיש שלא מעריכים את עבודתו מספיק – הוא יכול לחפש עבודה אחרת שבה ירוויח יותר.
גם בעל המפעל וגם העובד הם גורמים אוטונומיים, עצמאיים, ובעלי זכויות אדם. לכל אחד יש זכות מלאה לעשות מה שהכי טוב בשבילו. שכר משלמים לא לפי מה שנראה ליוחאי רוס מעין גדי כ”הוגן”, אלא לפי התרומה לרווח המפעל – שזה המקור שממנו משלמים משכורות. אם אין רווח אין משכורת ואין מפעל.
כל זה נכון למפעלים ותאגידים מסחריים בתנאי כלכלה חופשית ותחרות. במפעלים ממשלתיים הכללים שונים: שם מקבלים משכורת לפי ההשתייכות הפוליטית והקשרים האישיים עם המנהלים הציבוריים של התאגיד, וגם – לפי הכוח והיכולת להזיק למפעל ולחברה בכלל. מי שיש לו הכוח להזיק הכי הרבה – כמו עובדי חברת החשמל שמחזיקים ביד את השאלטר (המפסק) – הוא מרוויח הכי הרבה. מי שלוקח לעצמו משכורות עתק ותנאים נלווים (לעיתים לא חוקיים) – תחת איום להוריד את השאלטר – הוא עובד חזירי. החזירות מתחלקת שווה בשווה בין כל בני האדם, חזירים יש בקרב ה”עובדים” לא פחות מאשר בקרב ה”קפיטליסטים”, בקרב העניים לא פחות מאשר בקרב העשירים…
במפעלים פוליטיים הכוח הוא הקריטריון הקובע והחזירות חוגגת. לכן צריך כמה שפחות מפעלים פוליטיים, או ציבוריים, או ממשלתיים או איך שלא תקראו להם.
We all have parts of our day where we are half idle with tasks that require little to no concentration. No matter where you are, the evil inclination knows that these are the best moments to pounce.
If you go to forbidden sites while at work, you will be caught and you will be fired. That’s not the temptation. The temptation arises when we go to news sites and they show attractive faces, or people covered up, but in ways that unfortunately stir the imagination.
All you need is one image, and a chain reaction of forbidden thoughts is triggered right when you are most vulnerable to such an attack. We are sitting in front of a computer. We are physically inactive. We are also mentally inactive. We are in a physical and mental state where stimulation and excitement are exactly what we need. This is where the Evil Inclination tempts you with an “easy solution.”
Here are 5 hacks for creating an even greater stimulation: fighting this off.
1. Concentrate on a Torah shiur. If you are doing something that requires little concentration, and you know that listening to something else will not detract from your work, listen to a Torah shiur. It can be from your mobile device, or from the internet via your desktop computer. Once these thoughts attack, do everything you can to concentrate on every word the Rav is saying.
2.Call out to Hashem in your mind. Tell Him that you do not want to think these thoughts. You find them repulsive and you don’t want it. Even while 90% of your emotions and thoughts are still lusting for this, scream to Hashem that you wish they would go away.
According to Rabbi Arush, just one hour of living in today’s world confronts us with more lust than over an entire lifetime just 100 years ago. Can you imagine how much light you flood the world with by fighting?
3. Say the Shema. By reciting the Shema we combat these thoughts. This is a great, and immediate hack to chop away at these unwanted impulses.
4. Scream over and again, “You are not me!” These thoughts come from the Yetzer Hara, our Evil Inclination. This is not a part of you. It is an alien creation formed by Hashem to test us. Concentrate on the fact that these impulses are outside of you. They are a separate entity. It is something that can be cut off and thrown away. Focus on how every thought is not you. It is not a part of you and you can separate from it, even in this world. (Thanks to Rabbi Reuven Levy in his Garden of Emuna, part 8 audio lesson for this! Link:
5.Take a walk. It’s a lot harder to think about anything superficial if you are going for a brisk walk. Your senses are now being given stimulation of movement, new sights, sounds, and smells. Go out for a cup of coffee. Walk the entire floor of the office. Simply go to the bathroom and throw water on your face.
It’s a challenge to keep our mind clear of bad thoughts. We don’t choose what our co-workers will wear today. We don’t choose what will be on the websites we check every day. We don’t choose who will be walking the street beside us, and what they will be wearing.
Once we sit down and our minds begin to make sense of these stimuli, what we can choose is how we will react to those thoughts that are forced upon us: do we embrace them, or do we push them away? It is a moment to moment battle with millions of small victories that can be claimed in a matter of minutes.
I really envy the sweet Jewish couple who married last week in a surreptitious ceremony on the Temple Mount. I hear the cries of all the Temple Mountaphobes sitting behind the public broadcast microphones and in the name of the public rob my tax money in order to control the public’s consciousness.
I hear their genuine fear of the Temple Mount. And despite the fact that in just a few days we will be celebrating the Exodus from Egypt, the festival of our liberty, they are still stuck deep inside Purim. Not the end of the story of Purim, but its beginning.
Why was a total holocaust decreed upon Israel in the Purim story? Because when redemption didn’t seem to be coming following 70 years of exile after the destruction of the First Temple, ( according to Ahashverosh’s calculations),the enlightened king celebrated the ‘New World Order’; he celebrated the Pax Ahashveroshana. With no redemption for the Jews in the offing, all the nations celebrated, drank and generally gave free rein to their animalistic urges at Ahashverosh’s feast; at the capital of the pseudo-kind kingdom that ruled from India to Africa.
The king also invited the Jewish sages to his feast. Complete equality for all. All the chief rabbis attended: the Ashkenazic, Sephardic, ultra-orthodox and modern orthodox. They all came to drink at the feast. Not before they made sure that all the food would be strictly kosher, under the supervision of the most trusted kosher certification (I am not making this up. All of what I have written is taken from the sources on the Scroll of Esther) including a partition to separate between men and women according to the most strict stringencies of Jewish law…
After all, it is unthinkable to insult the king. We are responsible leaders. And then, Ahashverosh serves them the wine…in vessels stolen from the destroyed Temple in Jerusalem. And they drink…
At least if they had shed some tears into the wine served to them in the Temple vessels…But Rabbi Shimon Bar Yocahi explains that this holocaust was decreed upon Israel because not only did the newscasters of the time reject the whole Temple Mount idea, Israel’s message of human liberty under the wings of the One G-d – and exchanged it for the message of the liberty to enjoy lavish feasts under the servitude to man – but Israel’s leaders of the time also found their place in the New Order. They had funds for their yeshivot and Torah institutions. So everything was under control. They felt that they had overcome the extremists and that now, politics were in the hands of level-headed people. So they drank a little bit of wine, so what?
Enter Haman – the Amalekite. Amalek always shows up just before the redemption, when Israel gives up on its destiny and it message, preferring sweet servitude. That is what happened just before the Jews were supposed to enter the Land of Israel. All of them sobbed, just like the afraid-of-the-redemption newscasters.
Ultimately, they entered the Land. But not before the entire sobbing generation died in the desert.
The same thing happened throughout history, until the Balfour Declaration in the 1920s, when the British called upon our Nation to return to its Homeland (and even provided us with a foundation for a modern state). But the Nation of Israel did not show up. And once again, destruction was decreed upon that generation.
Yes, it is always the flight from our message that precipitates the next holocaust. Not a lack of ascent to the Mount, but estrangement from it.
And who saves the day?
Mordechai.
“Have we gone mad?” cried the Shushan broadcasters. This crazy man is throwing a match into a barrel of dynamite. What was so bad about bowing before Haman? Let him keep his vision to himself and stop endangering all of us!!! Now we will all die because of one old man who insists on sticking himself right in front of the eyes of the world. And he angered Haman, who is always on the lookout for a way to bring us trouble…
And then, it really happens! The intifada breaks out because of Mordechai! Haman decides to annihilate all the Jews! And the broadcasters are proven right. Those whose world is narrow like the world of an ant, who are completely detached from the message of the Nation of Israel, those whose only concern is survival – to reach 12 o’ clock at night and to worry about tomorrow when the sun rises – cannot understand the situation differently.
For the covenant that safeguards our nation’s wondrous eternity has a terrible price. The Creator, Who made an eternal covenant with us, is willing to put up with our temporary weaknesses in fulfilling the commandments. But the King is not willing to give up on the vision and on Israel’s destiny.
If an elite force errs in navigation and misses the mark, it is generally hit hard by the enemy and lessons are learned. But when the elite force decides not to carry out the mission, it makes its existence superfluous. That is the time to bring in a new elite force.
Mordechai understands that in order to save Israel, they must cling to their purpose, cling to their destiny and not fall into servitude to Haman. They must refuse to become servants to the Pax Ahashveroshana. They must choose liberty.
Mordechai would not kneel or bow to Haman, the Third Intifada brokr out and the Nation of Israel was redeemed.
Ben Gurion also understood this principle. The ‘mad old man’ (as he was called at the time) insisted on declaring statehood, ‘provoking’ the Arab armies to finish Hitler’s work and annihilate the small and hopeless Jewish community in Israel.
And how much death ensued! 6,000 fatalities, fully 1% of the Jewish population in Israel, were killed in the War of Independence. And all of our newscasters and talk show hosts today praise this extremist, who understood – from a completely secular perspective – that flight from our destiny makes Jewish existence in the Land of Israel superfluous. It leaves us in the Pax Brittania and sends us back to the desert for another 2000 years.
I really love you, dear couple. You are so beautiful, so simple and dignified. Continue to safeguard your anonymity. It is good that you are not being interviewed. You entered the covenant of marriage in the place of the covenant of the Jewish People with our Father in Heaven. You safeguarded that covenant for us all.
The frightened leaders have forgotten that covenant. But you are the Nation.
You are the Nation, you are its soul – its lofty spirit.
In your modesty, you brought us out of the servitude of Shushan to the Festival of Liberty.
