US President Donald Trump asserted Wednesday that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will do “whatever I want” when it comes to a potential military strike on Iran, in remarks made a day after the pair reportedly held a tense call on the subject.
The two leaders disagreed on the path forward during the call, as Netanyahu was highly skeptical of the framework, believing the US should continue applying military pressure on Iran to further weaken the regime by destroying its critical infrastructure, two Israeli sources said.
The US source said that Netanyahu’s “hair was on fire after the call,” though Israeli sources noted that Netanyahu “is always concerned” about how negotiations with Iran will go, even during stages that previously failed.
Did the shamir worm use these microbes?

Probably not from the midrashic description. The shamir split the rock the minute it touched it. Microbes would take considerably longer.
DeleteTrump says Netanyahu will ‘do whatever I want’ on Iran after pair said to hold tense call, daf Hayomi today Chullin 25b: MISHNA: With regard to the obligation of separating teruma and tithes, the stage of development that is obligated in bitter almonds is exempt in sweet almonds; and the stage in development that is obligated in sweet almonds is exempt in bitter almonds. GEMARA: The Sages taught in explanation of the mishna: In the case of bitter almonds, when they are small one is obligated to separate teruma and tithes, as they are not yet bitter and are fit for consumption; when they are large one is exempt from separating teruma and tithes, because they are bitter and unfit for consumption. In the case of sweet almonds, when they are large one is obligated to separate teruma and tithes, because the almonds are ripe and fit for consumption; when they are small one is exempt from separating teruma and tithes, because they are not fit for consumption. With regard to bitter almonds, Rabbi Yishmael, son of Rabbi Yosei, says in the name of his father to exempt both this small almond and that large almond. And some say to obligate both this small almond and that large almond. Rabbi Ela said: Rabbi Ḥanina issued a ruling in Tzippori in accordance with the statement of the one who says to exempt both this small almond and that large almond. The Gemara asks: And according to the one who says to obligate both this small almond and that large almond, for what use are the large almonds fit? They are bitter and unfit for consumption. Rabbi Yoḥanan said: Since one can sweeten them by means of roasting them on the fire, this renders them fit for consumption.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful. I raised my hand in the shiur this morning, at 45 Yochanan Bar Yochai St, Bnei Brak. I remember reading when I was in Brooklyn in USA (I made Aliyah July 1991 and never left except for 1 week late October 1992) army manual how to survive lost in a jungle, what’s safe to eat (don’t touch humans without being obvious). The firm rule on what’s safe to eat is that a plant, root, fruit, nut, tastes bitter: poison. The maggid shiur said I should write this up.
Anyway, I’m expecting, in an hour big big bombing: WWIII Gog and Magog. Tomorrow is America’s Memorial Day, July 4, 2026 is America’s 250 birthday: USA Senators Representatives are on vacation whatever. We’re living in good times: the full redemption in our lifetime, thank You, God in Heaven. Wise of the Gamara: don’t eat bitter almonds !!!
Allow me my latest UPS NYS Court letter: I paid child support, the $10,000 William Richardson will money shortly after I made Aliya 1991 + all the 55% TIAA monthly payments from my pension to Susan from January 1998 ($23,000+) with no end in sight today.
