The United States, Britain and the European Union are expected to impose sanctions on Russia on Tuesday after President Vladimir Putin ordered troops into two Moscow-backed rebel regions of Ukraine.
Nothing could have prepared her for the next meeting she had with her social worker, who told her that her biological father was Muslim and her biological mother was born Jewish but had recently converted to Islam.
Emes l'yakov (Devarim 4:19) . And lest you lift up your eyes to the skies, and when you see the sun, and the moon, and the stars, all the host of the skies, should you be driven to worship them, and serve them, which the Lord your God has allotted to all nations under the whole sky. Look at the Commentaries to the Torah. There are two different approaches in explaining this verse. There are commentaries that say that the Sun and Moon were given to all nations to provide illumination and so the Torah warns us not to bow down to them. However the Ibn Ezra and Ramban explain it to mean that every nation has a unique star and mazel and each city has its own mazel and they influence them. Ramban (Bereishis 1:18) also states this.. It seems that there is a fundamental dispute here concerning the nature of Avoda Zara. The view of the Rambam in various places is that Avoda Zara is nonexistent and has no actual power. Therefore those who pray to it and worship it not only transgress a severe prohibition of the Torah they are wasting the time for nothing. In contrast the view of Ramban is that G-d imbued Nature so that every nation has its own influence from the Heavenly World and it has an actual power to influence its designated nation as long as it is not something relevant to Jews [because Jews have no Mazel]. Nevertheless the nations are prohibited from worshipping these intermediaries. That is because in fact all power comes from G-d and therefore prayer and worship must be to G-d i.e. to the Supreme Divinity and not to the intermediaries. However if these are worshipped or prayed to they can be of help and they have the capability to help. This is the explanation of the verse “which G-d has distributed to all the nations under the Heavens” In other words G-d has distributed a lord to every nation that influences the nation. Look at Shoftim (11:24) the words of Yiftach to the King of Ammon, “Will not you possess that which Kemosh your god gives to you to possess? So whoever the Lord our God shall drive out from before us, them will we possess.” The Ralbag said it was said in a sarcastic manner. However according to the view of Ramban regarding Avoda Zara it was meant literally and not sarcastically. That is because Ramban holds that Kemosh has the power as the lord of that nation to give them what he want to and consequently you can have no complaints against the Jews regarding what G-d gives them.
The above is a strange statement - unsupported by any other sources
In fact the Ramban himself does not assert this concerning avoda zara but only in regard to magic
Ramban (Bamidbar 21:29)WOE TO THEE, MOAB! THOU ART
PERISHED, O PEOPLE OF CHEMOSH. The meaning of this is that [the people of] Moab
used to worship Chemosh their deity, and build high places [i.e., altars, to
him] and trust in him more than every other people, and in the time of their
trouble they would say to him: ‘Arise, and save us.’ Similarly Scripture refers
to [this worship of theirs] in all places, as it is written, And it shall come
to pass, when it is seen that Moab hath wearied himself upon the high place,
that he shall come to his sanctuary to pray; but he shall not prevail; and it
is further stated [of Moab], and Chemosh shall go forth into captivity, his
priests and his princes together with him; Moreover I will cause to cease in
Moab, saith the Eternal, him that offereth in the high place, and him that
offereth to his gods. Therefore those who spoke in parables said by way of
mockery, that Chemosh hath given ‘his sons’ as fugitives, refugees who flee [to
safety] because of the sword; and ‘his daughters’ into captivity; [these terms,
“sons” and “daughters” are used] because those who believe in him are called
“his sons” and “his daughters,” in the same way that they are [here] called
“his people” [people of Chemosh]. Similarly [we find the expression], the
daughter of a strange god. The [correct explanation is thus] not like the words
of Rashi, who interpreted [the verse as follows]: “He the Giver [i.e., G-d]
gave his sons [i.e., those of Moab] as fugitives from the sword.”Chemosh was
also worshipped by the children of Ammon, as Jephthah said [to the king of
Ammon], that which Chemosh thy god giveth thee to possess that you will
possess. They also had in their country Milcom the detestation of the
Ammonites. Or [it may be that] Jephthah mentioned Chemosh to the king of Ammon
because of [the land] which Israel had captured from Moab, just as he
[Jephthah] mentioned to them [i.e., to the Ammonites]: Balak king of Moab,
meaning to say that neither Chemosh their god nor Balak their king had saved
their land [Moab] from the hand of Israel. It is very fitting that we say, as
our Rabbis explained, that [the reference in the term] ‘hamoshlim’ (they that
speak in parables) is to Balaam and those like him, the diviners who spoke in
parables about future events.
Avoda Zara (55a) Rav Yehuda said to Rava bar Rav Yitzḥak:
Now, were I dead I would not have been able to tell you the explanation of this
matter. It is therefore good that you reminded me of this matter while I am
alive. The explanation is as Rav says: What is the meaning of that which is
written: “And lest you lift up your eyes to the heavens, and when you see the
sun and the moon and the stars, even all the host of heavens, you are drawn
away and worship them, and serve them, which the Lord your God has allotted
[ḥalak] to all the nations under the whole heaven” (Deuteronomy 4:19). The
verse teaches that God allowed the nations to be misled [sheheḥelikan] by
matters that seemingly indicate that idol worship is effective in order to
expel the nations from the world due to their decision to engage in idol
worship.
Megila (9b) Instead of Moses’ assertion: “I have not
taken one donkey [ḥamor] from them” (Numbers 16:15), they wrote in more general
terms: “I have not taken one item of value [ḥemed] from them,” to prevent the
impression that Moses took other items. To the verse that discusses the worship
of the sun and the moon, about which it is written: “Which the Lord your God
has allotted to all the nations” (Deuteronomy 4:19), they added a word to make
it read: “Which the Lord your God has allotted to give light to all the nations,”
to prevent the potential misinterpretation that the heavenly bodies were given
to the gentiles so that they may worship them.
Yerushalmi Megila (1:9) Thirteen things they changed for King Ptolemy. They wrote for him, “God created the beginning.” “I shall make man in stature and form.” “Male and his openings He created them.” “He finished on the Sixth and rested on the Seventh” “Now I shall descend.” “Sarah laughed in her surroundings, saying.” “For in their rage they slew a bull and in their will uprooted a trough.” “Moses took his wife and his sons and let them ride on people-carriers.” “The dwelling of the Children of Israel, which they dwelled in Egypt and other lands, was 430 years.” And the hare, “and the young of foot.” King Ptolemy’s mother was called “hare”. “Not one precious thing I took from them” “Which the Eternal, your God, distributed them to give light to all peoples under all the heavens.” “Which I did not command peoples to worship them.”
Sifri (Devarim 148:10) R. Yossi Haglili says: Because it is written (Ibid. 4:19) ("the sun and the moon, etc.) which the L-rd your G-d bequeathed to all the peoples," I might think that He bequeathed them to the nations (to serve them), it is, therefore written (Ibid. 29:25) "gods which they did not know and which He did not bequeath to them (to serve them)."
Rabbeinu Bachye (Devarim 4:19) "which the Lord
your God allocated to all the peoples under the whole sky." According to
the plain meaning of the text the word חלק
means: "He gave it to them as their share." [They have the choice of
serving the Lord directly or by means of these astrological manifestations].
The word is not to be understood to mean that these people have been
"assigned" these phenomena in the sky. If the latter meaning were
correct then these people would have an ironclad argument accusing God of
preventing them from worshipping Him directly or indirectly, seeing He had made
their fates dependent on the correlation of these stars to one another.
Idolatry would then have been decreed upon them. Seeing that the word חלק lends itself to misunderstandings, the
seventy sages who had been assigned by King Talmai to translate the Torah into
Greek, were forced to translate this as "which the Lord allocated to them
to provide light for them" (Megillah 9).A Midrashic approach: the word חלק is connected to the word חלקות, something smooth, slippery. God flattered the nations with
words in order to eventually drive them out of the world (Pessikta Zutrata ).
Our sages had interpreted the words משגיא לגוים ויאבדם
in Job 12,23 as meaning precisely this (according to Shemot Rabbah 15,11). They
suggested that the letter sin in the word משגיא
in that verse be read as a shin to mean "mislead," instead of
"exalts". [The end-effect of the verse, i.e. that God destroys the
Gentiles is the same; the difference is only the immediate cause. Ed.].

“A senior Austrian judge, Konstanze Thau, a friend of the father’s family, sought to influence the judge hearing the case on behalf of the father”
In February 2010, Michael
Schlesinger was evicted from the family apartment by police after being deemed
a danger to Beth and the children. He immediately approached his close family
friend, high Court Judge, Konstanze Thau to initiate custody proceedings on his
behalf.
“Since the mother repeatedly accused the judge of bias as part of her custody appeal, Ms Gottlicher saw it as necessary to include a transcript from 12.9.2011 (ON 263) to document that Ms Thau had called her and explained that there was a father who wanted to file an immediate application in a custody process and that she (Thau) requested whether an urgent meeting with Judge Gottlicher would be possible, which she (Gottlicher) agreed to.” (Susanne Göttlicher, 25.3.2013, rejection of application to recuse her)
A copy of such a transcript was never sent to
Beth’s lawyer nor recorded on the court file.
“the matter is explained as follows – the father did not
yet have legal representation and therefore appealed to Ms Thau to arrange an
appointment for him – bearing in mind the effort she was making.” (Schlesinger's reply
to the custody appeal)
In any
democtratic system in the world, such an intervention would be considered an
attempt to pervert the course of justice.
However, Judge Gottlicher determined
- in deciding on the application to have her removed - that Thau’s
intervention on the father’s behalf was not proof of bias:
“The fact that one who has no legal involvement in the case is friends with a party in the proceedings does not automatically mean that the judge can successfully be recused because of bias, otherwise it would be possible to recuse any unwanted judge on the claims of friendships or relationships.” Susanne Gottlicher, 25.3. 2013.
Yet on
learning of the allegations, a local Viennese journalist decided to
investigate. Her findings were reported in a news story (Heute) printed on 7
January 2013:
"This newspaper can now reveal the findings
of our research: For months a high court judge (name known) has intervened on
the side of the father (the high court judge is a good friend of the
ex-husband)."
Beth’s lawyer further discovered:
“(the journalist) is also a
member of the Jewish Community of Vienna and regularly meets Ms Thau there
(Synagogue). As already mentioned, since
this case is the number one topic of the
Jewish community, (the journalist) became interested in it and carried out
research. She also personally overheard Ms. Konstanz Thau boasting that she (Konstanze
Thau) influenced the psychological report (Willinger Report) and also had
regular contact with the judge on the case.” (application to recuse Judge Gottlicher).
Judge Gottlicher commissioned psychologist
Dr Ulrike Willinger to carry out the assessment and provide the Court with a
recommendation for custody. The 80-page report was wholly one-sided in favour
of Mr Schlesinger and recommended him for sole custody, omitting all reference
to the alleged history of violence.
The author of the report was a colleague
of Kenneth Thau; they worked together in the AKH hospital. In fact, Kenneth
Thau, was Willinger’s line manager. Kenneth Thau is married to Konstanze Thau,
which would explain Thau's alleged bragging that she was able to influence the
Willinger report.
“…Ms Thau was advised … to contact Dr Vavrik… to
request him to examine the childen. After
which, senior expert Dr Vavrik…refused to undertake (the request) in what was
for him and his clinic a very delicate matter. [Reply to custody appeal, 22.8.2011].
Beth’s lawyer wrote to Dr Vavrik to ask if Thau had indeed
contacted him which he confirmed.
The Thaus are prominent members of the IKG. Konstanze Thau
was converted by former Chief Rabbi Paul Eisenberg. The conversions themselves
have been the subject of much controversy with some Rabbis in Israel refusing
to recognise the legitimacy of Viennese conversions:
Joining the dots in this tangled web of deceit and the final nail in the coffin for Beth, Sammy and Benji is the link between Konstanze Thau & Rabbi Biderman, head of the Lauder Chabad school who is reported to have covered up the abuse.
Below, evidence of Jacob Biderman forwarding Beth's private emails on to Konstanze Thau

Fox News had reported the claims as Clinton's presidential campaign paying a technology company to "infiltrate" servers tied to Trump, despite the word "infiltrate" not appearing in the motion.In a statement to The Washington Post, a spokesman for Joffe said: "Contrary to the allegations in this recent filing, Mr. Joffe is an apolitical Internet security expert with decades of service to the U.S. Government who has never worked for a political party, and who legally provided access to DNS data obtained from a private client that separately was providing DNS services to the Executive Office of the President (EOP)."
The statement added that Joffe's contract meant he had lawful access to analyze DNS data in order to identify and analyze security breaches or threats.
