The study, "The Safety of COVID-19 Vaccinations — We Should Rethink the Policy," was done by three European researchers, led by Harald Walach, professor at Poznan University of Medical Sciences in Poland. The study used data from an Israeli field study which calculates the number of people who needed to be vaccinated to prevent one death. The study authors then used that number to contrast with a number they calculated from the Adverse Drug Reactions database. The data on adverse reactions can’t be used on its own to conclude whether a vaccine caused death. The Adverse Drug Reactions database explicitly says the data counts "suspected side effects" and they are not necessarily related to or caused by the medicine. Even the European Medicines Agency, which manages the Adverse Drug Reactions database, warns that its data on adverse reactions can’t be used on its own to conclude whether a vaccine caused death.

Defiant to the end, prominent anti-vaxx activist dies of COVID
https://www.timesofisrael.com/defiant-to-the-end-prominent-israeli-anti-vaxx-activist-dies-of-covid/
A vocal opponent of vaccines against the coronavirus died Monday, days after he was hospitalized in serious condition with COVID-19.
Hai Shoulian, 57, remained defiantly opposed to vaccines until his death, urging fellow anti-vaxxers “to continue fighting” in a Facebook post Saturday that included a photo of him hooked up to an oxygen concentrator.
“The situation is most critical. I’m incapable of speaking or responding to people. I have no oxygen and am unable to stabilize,” he wrote.

Defend, Don't Draft Our Daughters

TIPS FOR CALLERS:
° There is a fact sheet from CWA, for background information (although I've not been able to review it myself).

This very publication is a stinging indictment of the Israeli Army Draft Office, and the antireligious Establishment behind its escalating crusade to rob religious and 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. These techniques indicate how intent the Israeli military is on drafting increasing numbers of religious girls, and to what depths they're willing to stoop to do so. ..."

Armed Services Committee: Who voted for Selective Service, from a very well informed source on top of this issue:
Most news reports were not accurate in reporting the House Armed Services Committee vote on the NDAA (HR 4350) for 2022, which took place on September 1.
As shown in this roll-call record (Log 835), the ("draft our daughters") Houlihan amendment to HR 4350 passed 35-24. Five (not four) Republicans unfortunately voted Yes:
1. Jack Bergman, a retired Marine Lt. General from Michigan,
2. Mike Waltz, who has been on the wrong side of the national service issue for some time,
3. Liz Cheney who is out of step on almost everything,
4. Pat Fallon, who has a little AF experience and bills himself as a “conservative Republican,” and
5. Rep. Scott Franklin of Florida. Franklin boasted of his votes on the NDAA, but didn’t mention his vote to “Draft Our Daughters.”
Thankfully, one Democrat voted against the Houlihan amendment: Congressman Andy Kim of New Jersey:
About | Representative Andy Kim (house.gov)
On the Senate side, Republicans voting to Draft Our Daughters in S. 4049 included:
1. Senators Deb Fischer,
2. (self-described "combat vet") Joni Ernst,
3. Thom Tillis,
4. Dan Sullivan,
5. Kevin Cramer,
6. Rick Scott,
7. Tommy Tuberville, and
8. (surprisingly) Marsha Blackburn.
These Republicans need to feel some heat, especially in their district offices while they are not in session. Information on how to contact each one is here:

Never Traffick American Women, Congress HATES Competition

Re: Stop Congress from Requiring Young Women to Register for the Draft
Dear Friends,
The enemies of God, family and country never sleep.
While Americans are preoccupied and distracted by the Covid-19 Plandemic, Congressional bills HR 4350 and S. 4049 (the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), are heading for a full vote in the House and Senate.
Both the House and Senate bills carry a dangerous amendment to the Military Selective Service Act to require young women to register for the Selective Service System (SSS) Draft. Incredibly, this measure has attracted much bipartisan support.
Like the proverbial camel’s nose under the tent, if this measure is allowed to pass, the way is open for drafting women into combat roles.
Proponents of the NDAA/Defense Budget bill argue that the current Selective Service ruling that legally requires only men (males) ages 18 to 25, to registered for the draft is “discriminatory,” and “unconstitutional.” All references to men or males have been stricken in the amended version of the House and Senate bills and replaced with androgenous terms, aka, “persons,” “citizens,” “enlisted members, etc.
Republican Chip Roy of Texas, a member of the House Armed Services Committee who has a little girl, blasted his colleagues after they passed a mandate to require women to register for the draft. “All of D.C. – all of it- can go straight to hell!”
The DOD ordered the Armed Services to lift the ban on women serving in combat roles in January 2013. In December 2015 the DOD announced that the military would be opening all “remaining occupations and positions to women,” with “no exceptions,” effective January 2016. Joe Biden supports the draft mandate for women. If Congress now approves the draft for women, that will be the last nail in the American coffin.
PLEASE Act NOW. Contact your Congressman and Senators at their district/state offices or their Washington. D.C. office to express your opposition to any bill/amendment, including H.R. 4350 and S. 4049, that requires women to register for Selective Service. Be exact – NO DRAFT for WOMEN - INTO ANYTHING {-NSL} - NOT NOW – NOT TOMORROW – NEVER!
Please note that both the U.S. House and Senate are not currently in session. House members will be in session on September 20-24; 27-30. Senate members will be in session September 13-15; 20-24, 27-30.
This means that you can contact your Congressman and Senators at their district or state-wide offices now! Or you can leave a phone message or send an email to them at their Washington D.C. office where their staff will likely pick up the phone or see that your email reaches your Congressman or Senators.
If you don’t know how to contact your Congressman or Senator in D.C. or at his district or home office, go to List of Representatives and Senators - GovTrack.us. When you fill in the state slot on the left side of the page the list of your state’s Congressmen and Senators will come up alphabetically. Click the name and it will bring you to your representative’s official website and give you all the information you need on his or her home offices, email address, etc.
Whichever method of contact you choose, please act now or as soon as possible as the NDAA will be coming to the House and Senate floor for a vote anytime after the House and Senate members return to Washington.
Please also send this mailing to all your email contacts, especially those who have young daughters. A letter or email from a young girl or young woman to their Congressman and Senators opposing the draft for women will probably be the most effective weapon we have in our profamily and prolife arsenal opposing the registration of women to the military draft.
Thank you for your help and cooperation.

Palestinian escapees begged for ride from Arab town to West Bank but were denied
https://www.timesofisrael.com/fugitives-begged-for-ride-from-arab-town-to-west-bank-but-were-denied/
The six escaped from Gilboa Prison in the pre-dawn hours of Monday morning, making their way out through their cell’s drainage system and an empty space underneath the prison.
The escape exposed a series of failures at the prison, and Public Security Minister Barlev said on Thursday that he had decided to form a government commission to probe the incident.
Among the apparent lapses were failure to learn lessons from previous escape attempts and several operational blunders, including unmanned watchtowers and sleeping guards.
Trial of Malka Leifer opens in Melbourne, 12 years after initial charges
https://www.jpost.com/international/trial-of-malka-leifer-opens-in-melbourne-679301
The trial of Malka Leifer opened in the Melbourne court on Monday morning, with the former principal being accused of 74 counts of child sexual abuse and rape.
Novominkser Rebbe, shlita - don't bring up these long forgotten issues.
Similar considerations prevented R' Betzalel Landau from publishing a chapter on the conflict in his work on the Gra. Ironically this was corrected when Artscroll published an English translation of the work and added the missing material with the aid of R' Jonathan Rosenblum. The Novominkser supported Artscroll in publishing this material in English.

Democrats’ Jan. 6 commission is just a partisan ploy
https://nypost.com/2021/05/21/democrats-jan-6-commission-is-just-a-partisan-ploy/
Yet as they talk about Jan. 6 — and maintain an armed camp around the Capitol — Dems remain remarkably incurious about what triggered a pandemic that claimed more than 600,000 American lives, prompted lockdowns that tanked the economy and rang up trillions in costs, which the nation will be repaying long into the future.
That Congress seems reluctant to explore the origins of the coronavirus — despite pleas from nonpartisan scientists specifically to examine the role Chinese labs might have played in creating or spreading it — is nothing short of scandalous. Finding out the truth about COVID’s origins could help save lives, yet Dems prefer to focus on Jan. 6.
America needs to get to the bottom of what caused this massive, once-in-a-century public-health catastrophe. If Democrats won’t probe even that, they certainly shouldn’t be wasting time and money on a partisan effort to keep talking about an “insurrection.”
Completing Tractate Sukkah: Nine Days Siyum
https://www.chabad.org/library/article_cdo/aid/3401312/jewish/Completing-Tractate-Sukkah.htm
Tractate Sukkah discusses the various observances of the joyous holiday of Sukkot: dwelling in a Sukkah, taking of the Four Kinds, and the festive dancing and praying that characterizes the weeklong celebration.
The tractate concludes with the story of Miriam of the Bilga clan, who had married a Greek and then acted disrespectfully in the Temple, and how the Sages dealt with her clan.
Tzadik is required (Besht)
