Lea bas Freeda;4. Reuven ben Chava;5. Yechezkel ben Feiga Zlota;6. Neryah Dov ben Chana (Leiter).~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~Topics Included:~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~1. Parsha-based insights into the severity of murder (4:25 כי הרגו קין); see also Gemara Rosh HaShana 3a. This relates to the NY elections being held in wake of the (preventable) passage of Physician-Facilitated Murder.
• The Torah's universal vision for all Mankind (vs. the self-serving tunnel-vision of some faux* Jewish leadership) is referred to at the beginning of this week's Haftarah.
* See last week's program, calling out artificial Jewish leadership - not despite the need to respect authentic Torah authority -- but specifically because of it.
2. Elections and massive, public Chillul HaShem - see letter copied below;
• This election in NY State will be seen - by those who matter within political class - as a referendum on Physician-Facilitated Poisoning of the medically vulnerable (aka "Assisted Suicide") - which the legislature just passed, and which Gov. Hochul just signed, in this past legislative session.
• If any candidates ask for your support - ask them what they've done to address the foundational moral threats we face (see letter below).
• It's necessary for every individual to intelligently outreach to voters, and to Rabbonim you're close with.
3. We shared rare, foundational, timely insights into the Satmar perspective on voting, within the broader context of the Shitah of the saintly Rabbeinu Yoel Teitelbaum ZY"A, as applied to domestic elections.
And more...

Q) How far can your donation go in saving girls from falling into the Israeli Army?In other words, for how little can you save one neshomoh?A) FACT: For as little as TEN DOLLARS YOU CAN SAVE A TEENAGE GIRL FROM BEING DRAFTED INTO THE EXPLOITIVE ARMY!FACT: GIRLS LOCATED 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 more donations. Inexcusably, most of the tzibbur is simply being kept in the dark.
However, 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."
Suggestion: Instead of dispatching another fortune on a battery of Shushi, eat something normative, healthy, and economical - and direct the windfall savings towards an urgent, ultra-worthy cause like this one.

The following is a link to a Guidebook provided by the pro-Israel organization "Chotam." It's an English guide for observant and traditional girls to avoid enlistment in the IDF:
(* This very publication is a stinging indictment of the Israeli Army Draft Office, and the antireligious Establishment behind its escalating crusade to rob Torah-observant / traditional girls of their legal entitlement to a religious exemption from military service. The very need to publish such a guide speaks volumes of the danger posed to the next generation of Jewish mothers by "fellow Jews." The professional, psychological-warfare techniques that these 16- and 17-year-old girls need to be trained to defend against, all alone - without even legal counsel or a family member - are almost as outrageous as they are anti-Torah. The institutionalization of such techniques indicate how intent the Israeli military is on drafting increasing numbers of Torah-observant girls, and to what depths they're willing to stoop to do so.)

Letter, from which we read on air (final quarter) -
R' ...,
A gutt yohr. Nice (stories about Kiddush HaShem).
I'm wondering how such inspiring stories can be utilized to evoke acts of public Kiddush HaShem that require Yidden to extend themselves beyond their comfort levels.
Feel-good mitzvos are nice, and often very important. However, they are by no means nearly sufficient.
This is especially true given the overabundance of public Chillul HaShem that frum communities are routinely supplying, particularly around election seasons, unknowingly or otherwise.
It's no secret that most of those who tend to speak most noticeably in the name of Torah and Orthodox communities make it very clear what their priorities are, and what they are not.
From most of them, we hear not a word about LGBTQ, kefirah and
It's not just about talking the talk, it's also about how they walk the walk.
Frum media venues routinely promote the Askun Class hawking the very politicians promoting aforementioned depravity. This is ostensibly because "the community" (or the askunim themselves) has something to "gain" (funding, access to funding, even more funding... or yet more lip service being dispensed in the direction of ever-proliferating anti-Zionists and anti-semites, who crave free attention).
Now, I sincerely hope that you can grasp how just much that warped priority-snapshot stands in stark contrast to the advocacy of a multitude of Christian organizations, who emphasize at least some of the foundational moral issues, and prioritize confronting some of the morality-related existential threats facing society.
Again, I'm referring to:
1. the movement pushing the virulently anti-Torah LGBTQ agenda, including the Marriage-DeDefinition movement, including legalized "Gay Adoption" and the attendant trafficking of innocent children into the hands of dangerous, same-sex "couples" (doubles), some clearly pederastic.*
~~~
* sidenote: The barbarian policy of adoption of innocent children - Jewish children as well - by sodomists is ignored and/or censored by much of the frum media (partly out of ignorance or inattentiveness, partly out of an agenda). This itself is arguably a Chillul HaShem - and in any case requires special emphasis. So pardon me for diverging.
The "Gay" Adoption policy would never pass in Sodom, which would never have accepted the very notion of Mabul Marriage (see Akeidas Yitzchak, Parshas VaYaira 20). Yet, Trump felt comfortable in appointing Scott Bessent to Treasury, despite - or because of - being married to a male - with two "adopted" children.
This pederastic policy has arguably left its' indelible imprint on international relations. "Gay"-Adoption was the point of contention that prompted Russian President Putin to correctly ban Russian babies from being adopted by Americans, about 15 years ago.
As if we're to hearken to a Heavenly warning, that international friction apparently contributed to the escalating tensions between Russia and the decadent nations of the west. President Putin has been the most prominent world leader unrelenting critical of the LGBTQ Mafia agenda pervading the western world. And leaders of western nations, whose primary export has been LGBTQ indoctrination, have been responding in kind.
~~~
2. The Planned-Parenthood-centered movement pushing abortion-at-whim; free access to homicidal abortion poison pills; transgender-medical abuse of confused youth; promotion of Znus and kefirah in schools and beyond (thereby providing a lucrative market for the allied human-trafficking movement collaborative with abortion- perpetrators to cover up crimes against under-age girls); and
3. The Steath Euthanasia movement aforementioned, for ever-relevant example.
Needed: Mesiras Nefesh for Kovod Shomayim
Rashi (מס' קידושין ס"ט: ד"ה ואבינה בעם) relates how those Leviyim who returned to E"Y with Ezra were those who had previously employed the strength of character to amputate their own thumbs when ordered to sing שיר ה' in Bavel (תהילים קל"ז: ד), to preclude their ability to play the requisite instruments (ע' ילקוט תהילים, שם ).
I recall seeing in a peice on Chanukah from Rav Moshe Shapiro ZT"L asking why the Gemara Brachos 20a - as an exemplification of the level of mesiras nefesh of the previous generations - who merited tremendous Heavenly assistance - quotes an incident of Rav Adda Bar Ahava - which turned out to be based on an erroneous perception, one which resulted in a huge financial penalty meted out against him to recompensate the party who was mistakenly identified. He asks:
Q) Of all the possible acts, why was this particular one, based on an error, chosen to exemplify mesiras nefesh?
A) Because, he explains, the essence of Kiddush HaShem is not the accomplishment achieved - but rather the degree to which a Jew is willing to sacrifice for Kovod Shomayim.
We need to speak uncomfortable truths to (1) defend Kovod Shomayim and to (2) save those Jews who would be open to be saved from supporting these terrible candidates.
Then, where are we?
