Leftist professor: 'Israel needs to close off haredi cities to prevent spread of COVID-19'

http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/276465

 

In a Facebook post, Goldblum, who has a PhD in organic chemistry, wrote: "They're hiding the truth from you, because of the elections: The virus is spreading quickly in Israel since the Koreans visited the Cave of the patriarchs. In Italy they have closed off towns and cities to prevent the spread of the disease. Israel needs to close off Elad, Bnei Brak, and Modi'in Illit and Beitar Illit, and Netivot and Beit Shemesh, as well as large neighborhoods in Ashdod and Jerusalem."

All of the locations Goldblum named are home to large haredi communities.

What’s Next for Psychology’s Embattled Field of Social Priming

https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/whats-next-for-psychologys-embattled-field-of-social-priming/

 This is not the only area of research to be dented by science’s ‘replication crisis’. Failed replication attempts have cast doubt on findings in areas from cancer biology to economics. But so many findings in social priming have been disputed that some say the field is close to being entirely discredited. “I don’t know a replicable finding. It’s not that there isn’t one, but I can’t name it,” says Brian Nosek, a psychologist at the University of Virginia in Charlottesville, who has led big replication studies. “I’ve gone from full believer to full sceptic,” adds Michael Inzlicht, a psychologist at the University of Toronto, Canada, and an associate editor at the journal Psychological Science.

 In July 2017, Israeli historian Yoram Meital stumbled upon a handwritten 1028 CE biblical codex that was lying abandoned on a dusty shelf in a Cairo synagogue. Wrapped in simple white paper of the sort one finds on tables in cheap eateries, at 616 pages, the Zechariah Ben ‘Anan Manuscript is one of the era’s most complete and preserved examples of the “Writings,” the third and concluding section of the Hebrew Bible. It had been lost to scholars for almost 40 years.

Netanyahu: Benny Gantz's closest advisers compared President Trump to Hitler

http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/276343
 

Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu spoke with Fox News' Mark Levin about the "deal of the century" and how it might be implemented following the March election.

In the interview, Netanyahu explained that the rival center-left "Blue and White" party, led by MK Benny Gantz, is "a leftist party in disguise."

 "Remember, the majority of Israelis are basically right and center-right. So in order to get center-right voters, they pretend to be a center-right party and that they will take up the terrific Trump plan that has been put forward by [US] President [Donald] Trump that's very good for Israel, that has Israel applying Israeli law, adding to Israel's sovereign territory important places like the Jordan Valley."

Rush Limbaugh Says Same Democrats Who Tricked George W. Bush Into Iraq War and WMDs Are Now Pushing Trump-Russia Evidence

https://www.newsweek.com/rush-limbaugh-says-same-democrats-who-tricked-george-w-bush-iraq-war-wmds-are-now-pushing-1488580

 Limbaugh said the same intelligence agencies who "set up" Bush to sell Congress on the Iraq War are now "deploying every weapon" against the Trump administration. His Friday radio broadcast rehashed his own conspiratorial version of the lead-up to America's 2003 invasion of Iraq. He claimed "deep state" intelligence agencies and the Democratic Party faked evidence of weapons of mass destruction (WMDs) in order to embarrass Bush's Republican administration. Limbaugh accused Democrats, the FBI and CIA of colluding against Trump in a similar way today by "making up evidence" of Russian ties.
