Stabbing spree in London's Jewish neighborhood leaves 1 fighting for life

Shomrim security volunteers apprehended the attacker near the Sadigur synagogue in Golders Green; British PM Starmer calls the attack "deeply concerning."

Matan Bar Noy, the World Zionist Organization's emissary to Britain, posted a shaken video from London immediately after the attack. "I am taking off my kippa now on the street, and also my pin, because the instruction is to conceal all Jewish symbols right now," he said. "It's sad that we are in Britain, a free, democratic country that saved the Jews from the Nazis and the entire free world, and now you cannot walk around here as a Jew in safety. Very sad."

Yaakov Hagoel, chairman of the World Zionist Organization, who is currently in London, said, "I am here to make clear to the British authorities that they are responsible for the safety of Jews in Britain just as they are for every other citizen. Incitement against Jews can cost precious lives, and we are seeing its signs right now, here on the streets of London. We are working together with the authorities to eradicate this terrible phenomenon and allow Jews everywhere to walk freely and safely. I call on British Prime Minister Keir Starmer and London Mayor Sadiq Khan to act decisively against antisemitism in this country."

  1. Stabbing spree in London's Jewish neighborhood leaves 1 fighting for life. Daf Hayomi today. Chullin 2a Everyone takes vows of valuation and is thereby obligated to donate to the Temple treasury the value fixed by the Torah based on the age and gender of the person valuated; and everyone is valuated, and therefore one who vowed to donate his fixed value is obligated to pay; everyone vows to donate the market value of a person as a slave to the Temple treasury and is thereby obligated to pay; and everyone is the object of a vow if others vowed to donate his market value. Is that also an expression indicating that it is permitted ab initio? But it is written: “And if you shall cease to vow, there shall be no sin in you” (Deuteronomy 23:23), indicating that it is preferable not to vow. And it is written: “It is better that you should not vow, than that you should vow and not pay” (Ecclesiastes 5:4); and it is taught in a baraita with regard to that verse: Better than both this one, who vows and does not pay, and that one, who vows and pays, is one who does not take a vow at all; this is the statement of Rabbi Meir.
    Wow, according to R’ Meir, better is one who does not vow at all. Beautiful. Don’t vow. If you want to give charity sacrifices whatever---just do it, without vowing. This supports doing good actions without screaming vowing whatever announcing how good you are whatever: so much today is hypocrisy lies fake news and such. The evil people that murder innocent and such today do lots of screaming flash mobs and such to show good they are. I like R’ Meir, be good without vowing etc.
