Topics Included:
    ~~~~  ~~~~   ~~~~  ~~~~

1. Responding to the concerns over a potential nuclear-armed Iran, shared by the guest of the immediately preceding program ["The Mossad Files"]:  When we stop the public policy rebellion against G-d (Sodomy, abortion-at-whim, etc.) - we can hope for improvements.  Again, Israel is run by gluttons for Divine Punishment.  We insist on doing it to ourselves.

2.  The Torah posits a universal vision for all Mankind, vs. the self-serving tunnel-vision of imposter Jewish leadership.

• See Divrei Yoel (of Rav Yoel Teitelbaum ZT"L) on Parshas Achrei-Mos 18:3, for a glimpse into the authentic position of the Satmar Rov ZY"A - in marked contrast to the self-focused, klein-keppish nonsense spouted by those who undermine his holy legacy - unfortunately, in the very name of perpetuating it.

• We discussed Michah 4:2 as well, timely to Simchas Torah.

3.  Calling out imposter Jewish leadership - not despite the need to respect authentic Torah authority -- but specifically because of it.

4. Looking at Authentic Torah Leadership Today:

• Where are the authentic Torah leaders?  Why are they often silent?  Often it's due to intimidation and threats by those in power.

•  Case-in-Point: The shocking incident about 20 years ago: Why did Rav Moshe Green ZT"L retract his signature from an early Psak against voting for anti-morality candidates? 

He informed me then why: Because of a danger to his life, due to his fragile health.  From whom?  Who would have the temerity to endanger the health of a fragile Zokain?  A prominent Monsey Rabbi, now even more prominent in local chassidic quarters.* (Approx. 45 minutes)

* B"H, since then, as the prohibitions involved in supporting such candidates gained coverage in the tzibbur, Rav Green was able be far more open about his opposition to voting for abomination proponents.

5.  The Subversion of the Sukka: from chanifah of Sukka-hater Cuomo to a Chabad media liaison  exploiting the Sukka for a Mamdani photo-op: https://us.list-manage.com/178QYWgD75W?e=4fa57d7224&c2id=7507e8b297f0910ef6cf61f0cd652d4e.

6. BREAKING NEWS: Female IDF Draft Update (Giyus Banos)
~~~~  ~~~~  ~~~~  ~~~~

- From Chomosayich, an established volunteer women's organization in Israel, which has saved and assisted thousands of girls from the ongoing IDF escalations against "easy-target" girls, over the years.

How far can your donation go in saving girls from falling into the Israeli Army? 

In other words, for how little can save one neshomoh?

For as little as TEN DOLLARS YOU CAN SAVE A TEENAGE GIRL FROM BEING DRAFTED INTO THE EXPLOITATIVE ARMY!

AND GIRLS FURTHER AWAY FROM CHAREIDI CENTERS CAN BE SAVED FOR A MERE 15 DOLLARS.

The cost of saving these neshomos is, in many cases, so low that it's scandalous that we're not seeing far, FAR more donations, although most of the tzibbur is simply being kept in the dark.  That's greatly due to the media blackout.  But it's also because many of those "Shaineh Yidden" who do hear about it fail to properly spread the word.  Too many of us are focused on issues far less important, or too timid to be seen as "controversial."

Clarification:
~~~~  ~~~~
Last week - Erev Sukkos - on just a few hours of notice, via emailed documentation - before we could clarify by phone - we we able to report on yet another (Torah-observant) teenage girl who received a letter from the Israeli Army Draft Office, which appeared to threaten her with arrest - over her refusal to compromise Halacha by appearing before an Army Religiosity-Interrogation.

Subsequently, we clarified that inasmuch as she's below 18, the police generally do not arrest such girls.  Nonetheless, the language of the letter was intimidating in the extreme - as our own initial reading of it confirms.  Who knows how many girls who received such letters promptly caved in to the summons, and submitted to a fatally flawed Rayon-Dat interrogation?!  What about all the girls about whom we never hear, who quietly submit, and eventually are pressured into enlisting?  That's the big-picture tragedy here.

יג תשרי, תהא שנת פדיון זוכות

A simple עצה for those seeking גדרי צניעות in electronic communication

When communicating electronically with the opposite gender, when practical, one may prefer to not respond immediately, or to at least send the response on a timed-delay, as in the "schedule send" option for emails.

This delay reduces the sense of a live-time interaction.  The recipient then may feel a bit more like they're responding to the חפצא (object) of the email communication, rather than to the גברא (person) sending it.

When not possible to delay in responding, even a momentary delay, when done as a geder, may help; that too can help maintain a sense of awareness.  (Such brief delays are often beneficial in any case, to avoid errors and impulsive reactions.)

Please feel free to share this.

This is being disseminated for the zechus of all the Bnos Yisroel in Israel currently braving threats of arrest and legal pursuit, over their heroic refusal to submit to Army Draft Office orders to appear at the Draft Office - in the process of seeking a religious exemption (or otherwise).  Likewise, circulated for the merit of those girls silently enduring the indignities of arrest, military tribunal, and incarceration at the hands of the Israeli military police, court and prison system.

May their collective mesiras nefesh for Kedusha and Tzniyus serve to  protect Klal Yisroel from all of our enemies - those threatening us from within and without - in ruchniyus and gashmiyus.

To share in helping assist and rescue such girls, please partner with the established Chomosayich women's volunteer organization. They're silently bearing the burden incumbent on us all.

To donate from the USA, CALL OR TEXT: (347) 661-0172. Please mention where you saw their number.

• Is HaShem preparing a series of localized or regional Mabul (Flood) events - for all those nations/ states/ cities/ neighborhoods who arrogantly refuse to learn their lesson?

• Speaking about Israel being run by gluttons for punishment, it is clear that Netanyahu's militarism fails to realize that the problem isn't Iran - it's our open, unrelenting rebellion against G-d (via public policies like LGBTQ laws and indoctrination, drafting girls, and abortion-at-whim).

"Is Turkey the New Iran?"


We're not certifying any specific claim therein. But the very headline underlines the flawed strategy of the morally-degraded hawks running Israel now.  It also highlights the idiocy of a coterie of Israeli and zionist loudmouths who manage to help foment / instigate enemies.  Foolhardy zionistic hubris and rhetoric can more deadly than terrorist bombs.  Jews didn't survive in Golus for almost two millennia by shooting off their mouths at every  injustice and offense (real or perceived).

(Let's not forget about potential concerns from Pakistan and even Egypt.)

Leading haredi rabbi blasts calls to boycott Knesset elections

Rabbi Dov Lando sharply condemns haredi voices urging election boycott, saying those promoting such a move act out of 'wickedness or stupidity.'

 Rabbi Dov Lando sharply condemns haredi voices urging election boycott, saying those promoting such a move act out of 'wickedness or stupidity.'

"Woe to anyone who incites people not to go to the elections, woe to him - and I do not want to continue," Rabbi Lando told those present emphatically, adding that anyone promoting such a position is acting out of "either wickedness or stupidity."

Rabbi Lando’s remarks reflect the position of the mainstream Lithuanian Haredi leadership, which views participation in elections as a critical and central tool for protecting funding for the community’s educational institutions and public services.

Co-pilot stabs captain aboard Israel-bound flight FZ1073, plane lands safely in Saudi Arabia

The Implosion of Eric Schmitt

 https://www.newsweek.com/implosion-of-eric-schmitt-12505501

Senator Eric Schmitt bounced from "vice-presidential pick" to social media meme after purported "slam dunk" perjury evidence against Jack Smith fell flat in a basketball mix-up.

His anticipated moment of triumph against the former special counsel crumbled when it became clear he had mistaken the Iowa Hawkeyes college women's team for the Atlanta Hawks NBA franchise in key "gotcha" questioning aimed at placing Smith in Atlanta.

It was not just Schmitt that came out of Tuesday’s hearing with a red face. Several prominent conservative commentators circulated clips of the exchange as evidence that Smith had been caught in a lie, only to delete or quietly abandon those claims after the Hawkeyes explanation emerged.

Off-duty pilots on Israel-bound plane heroically landed aircraft after cockpit stabbing, passengers say

 https://nypost.com/2026/09/30/world-news/off-duty-pilots-on-israel-bound-plane-land-after-cockpit-stabbing-passengers-say/

Two off-duty pilots reportedly stepped in to safely land a Tel Aviv-bound passenger jet minutes after the co-pilot stabbed the pilot in what Israeli officials are investigating as an attempted “9/11”-style terror attack.

The stabbing happened around two-and-a-half hours after taking off from Dubai, while the plane was cruising at about 34,000 feet, causing the jet to plummet 17,000 feet in just two minutes, according to Israeli media.

The two men – both “relief” pilots slated to skipper a subsequent flight, passengers told the BBC – managed to stabilize the Boeing 737 Max with 174 passengers on board for an emergency landing in Tabuk, Saudi Arabia.

How a woman's quick thinking and an Israeli executive's bravery saved Flydubai flight

The chaos unfolded when Tzvika Manes' wife, who was waiting near the cockpit while their daughter used the restroom, heard sudden screams from behind the flight deck door. She immediately alerted an off-duty pilot, who along with Tzvika and others, rushed to the flight deck.

Manes noted the international nature of the crisis – the off-duty pilot who initiated the rescue is from Fiji, the severely wounded captain hails from India, and the attacker is an Omani national. He also praised a quick-thinking doctor on board who managed to bandage and stabilize the injured captain, enabling the aircraft to safely continue its descent.

Mamdani to Israel Hayom: We will combat all forms of antisemitism

 https://www.israelhayom.com/2026/09/30/mamdani-israel-hayom-fight-all-forms-antisemitism/

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani attended a Brooklyn Sukkot celebration hosted by Devorah Halberstam, a Chabad community activist who chairs the Board of Commissioners at the Mayor's Office to Combat Antisemitism, during which he told Israel Hayom he would fight all forms of antisemitism but dismissed the idea of defining it.

The visit came just hours after Mamdani had unveiled a citywide strategy to fight antisemitism. The plan pours money into security, education and hate-crime prevention. Yet it stops short of adopting a formal definition of antisemitism, and it does not name anti-Zionism as one of that hatred's forms. That puts it at odds with the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) definition that has been adopted by dozens of countries, which does treat certain anti-Zionist statements, among them denying the Jewish people's right to self-determination, as antisemitic.

Israel Hayom pressed Mamdani on this during the event. "Mayor Mamdani, will your strategy include all forms of antisemitism?" this reporter asked. "We will combat all forms of antisemitism," he replied. Pressed further on why the plan offers no specific definition, he said the strategy didn't need a "specific definition." The Israel Hayom reporter was then referred to Phylisa Wisdom, executive director of the Mayor's Office to Combat Antisemitism, and to Deputy Press Secretary Sam Raskin, but they have yet to comment.

Mamdani’s new plan to ‘fight antisemitism’ is pure fakery

 https://nypost.com/2026/09/30/opinion/mamdanis-new-plan-to-fight-antisemitism-is-pure-fakery/

Just what is the antisemitism that Mayor Zohran Mamdani plans to oppose? He won’t say.

He’ll fund more “hate-crime prevention” and help pay for security upgrades at religious centers (not just the Jewish ones that most need it, of course).

But God forbid our Israel-hating mayor mention that “anti-Zionism” is central to the recent waves of violent antisemitism he claims he wants stopped.

Points to state Sen. Liz Krueger for calling out the obvious: The mayor needs to “make clear through words and actions” that all Jews, including Zionists, deserve security against “threats, harassment or violence.”

Mamdani Wants to Fight Antisemitism But Won’t Define It

 https://www.newsweek.com/zohran-mamdani-antisemitism-definition-israel-zionism-new-york-12503613

Mayor Zohran Mamdani has released a detailed strategy to fight antisemitism in New York City while leaving unsettled the question that followed him into office. What will his administration consider antisemitic when Israel and Zionism are involved?

Mamdani's plan is substantial in the places where the answer is easy. City Hall is putting $7.4 million into security and hate-prevention grants, expanding Jewish history education, helping institutions improve security and funding efforts to track and prevent hate. The mayor said the goal is to “confront the scourge of antisemitism now and in the future.” Considering the distrust between the mayor and parts of New York’s Jewish community and the fact that antisemitic hate crimes rose 9 percent through the first eight months of this year, according to the NYPD, the new plan is important.

But what happens when alleged antisemitism comes wrapped in political speech about Israel or Zionism? There is little ambiguity about a swastika on a synagogue or an assault on somebody because he is Jewish—those harder cases begin when consensus ends. The strategy explicitly declines to adopt a definition of antisemitism.

Shituf For Goyim - Chazon Ish

 Chazon Ish (Likutim Sanhedrin 63b) Question: Is shituf permitted for a ben Noach? Answer: While Tosfos and the Ran do not prohibit it for a Goy the Rambam does not distinguish between a Jew and a Goy in ths matter and considers it Avoda Zara. The Chazon |Ish rules in agreement with Rambam

Rambam (Melachim (09:02) A Noachide who worships false gods is liable provided he worships them in an accepted manner.A Noachide is executed for every type of foreign worship which a Jewish court would consider worthy of capital punishment. However, a Noachide is not executed for a type of foreign worship which a Jewish court would not deem worthy of capital punishment. Nevertheless, even though a Noachide will not be executed for these forms of worship, he is forbidden to engage in all of them.We should not allow them to erect a monument, or to plant an Asherah, or to make images and the like even though they are only for the sake of beauty.

Rambam (Melachim 11:4) Jesus of Nazareth who aspired to be the Mashiach and was executed by the court was also alluded to in Daniel's prophecies: 'The vulgar among your people shall exalt themselves in an attempt to fulfill the vision, but they shall stumble. 'Can there be a greater stumbling block than Christianity? All the prophets spoke of Mashiach as the redeemer of Israel and their savior who would gather their dispersed and strengthen their observance of the mitzvot. In contrast, Christianity caused the Jews to be slain by the sword, their remnants to be scattered and humbled, the Torah to be altered, and the majority of the world to err and serve a god other than the Lord.

Rambam (Melachim 11:7)  Nevertheless, the intent of the Creator of the world is not within the power of man to comprehend, for His ways are not our ways, nor are His thoughts, our thoughts. Ultimately, all the deeds of Jesus of Nazareth and that Ishmaelite who arose after him will only serve to prepare the way for Mashiach's coming and the improvement of the entire world, motivating the nations to serve God together as Tzephaniah 3:9 states: 'I will transform the peoples to a purer language that they all will call upon the name of God and serve Him with one purpose.'

Rambam (Melachim 11:8)  How will this come about? The entire world has already become filled with the mention of Mashiach, Torah, and mitzvot. These matters have been spread to the furthermost islands to many stubborn-hearted nations. They discuss these matters and the mitzvot of the Torah, saying: 'These mitzvot were true, but were already negated in the present age and are not applicable for all time.'
