If Russia did a 10th of the war crimes committed by Israel, the USG and Genocide Joe would be launching nukes at Russia and the MSM would demand it. Many dumb statist Americans would support this, while also supporting Israel’s genocide.

We live in a failed state run by psychopaths.

Due to the high demand: Yad L'Achaim will produce another 20,000 personal charity patches for soldiers​

The blessed initiative of Yad Lachaim, which saw the light of day about two months ago, in which tens of thousands of personal charity boxes (pouches) were distributed to soldiers and members of the security forces, so that the virtue of the mitzvot of charity would protect them and preserve them, received a great response, and in light of the great demand, the organization produced another 20,000 such boxes.

A large demand comes mainly from soldiers stationed on the northern border, in light of the warming there, as well as from officers who request a large amount of cash to distribute to all the soldiers under their command.

As we previously published, Yad Lachaim, whose 'security department' members are assisted by members of the security forces to rescue women and children from Arab villages, and quite a few of its members have been recruited these days and are on the front lines, thought of a unique product that is not available and that could accompany the soldiers and be a special interest for them to protect and rescue. In this framework, the projects department of Yad Lachaim initiated a special production of a "pouch" - a kind of special wallet in the colors of the army and with a special buckle for hanging on the pants in which there are 2 pockets, one for charity coins and the other that will be used as a charity box in which to put the coins, when each soldier can donate the charity to all body or needy close to his heart.

After all the delays, these fighters were supposed to conduct their beret hike about two weeks ago, but they were sent to carry out an offensive operation in the Khan Younis area, where they ended up celebrating Purim.

Temple Mount Update | THE TEN CROWNS OF THE MONTH OF NISAN​

The month of Adar is a magical month topped off with the Purim celebration on the 14th and 15th, the reading of the four special Torah readings of Shkolim, Zachor, Para and HaChodesh, the collecting of the half shekel offering, (not too late!) and the preparations to be made in anticipation of Passover. But we are just getting started! Monday evening begins the month of Nisan, the first month of the Hebrew year! The first day of Nisan was the day of the dedication of the desert Tabernacle, which we read about this Shabbat, (parashat Shemini), a day which earned Nisan ten crowns!

Crown #1: The dedication of the Tabernacle took place on the first day of the week!

Crown #2: The first of the twelve tribal leaders brought gifts and offerings to the Tabernacle!

Crown #3: the first day of Aharon's official service in the Tabernacle, beginning a priestly heritage that continues to this day!

Crown #4: The first day of the Tabernacle/Temple offerings!

Crown #5: The first time fire descends from heaven consuming the offerings placed upon the altar!

Crown #6: The first time that sacred foods were eaten by the kohanim in the Tabernacle!

Crown #7: The first time that the Divine Presence (Shechinah) rested amidst the people!

Crown #8: The first day the kohanim blessed the people with the priestly blessing!

Crown #9: The first day it became forbidden to perform offerings to HaShem outside of the Tabernacle/Temple!

Crown #10: It was the first month of the new year!

Nisan is known as the month of our ge'ula - the month of our redemption! Not just our redemption from Egypt on the 15th of Nisan, but our future redemption, may it be soon!

The verse from Psalms 96:11, "The heavens will rejoice and the earth will exult" is related to Nisan, as the first letters of each of the four Hebrew words in the verse spell out the ineffable name of HaShem!

The name Nisan is related to the Hebrew word nes - which means miracle. And no wonder - Nisan, the month of firsts, the month of ten crowns, the month of the exodus and the Passover festival and the pilgrimage of all Israel to the Holy Temple in Jerusalem, and the month of our past and future ge'ula, is truly a month of miracles! May we merit witnessing many miracles this Nisan. Many miracles and glad tidings!

Be part of the excitement -Support the work of the Temple Institute!

They are embarrassingly grateful that I, as a non-Jew, am here and helping in Israel. They think the entire world is against them. Ronen tells me that part of the reason there is a lull in the fighting is that the Israeli arms industry is ramping up. The aim is for Israel to be less dependent on the US for military support.

His wife says that since 7 October large sections of previously left-wing kids have rallied behind the IDF’s invasion of Gaza. Unlike Western youths, these kids have seen their friends slaughtered. Sympathy for the ‘Palestinian cause’ is a luxury belief they cannot afford.

Ronen thinks that war with Hezbollah is coming. ‘We have to create a buffer zone in southern Lebanon’, he says, ‘or our people will not return’. He is referring to the 300,000 internally displaced Israelis, who are living in tents or hotel rooms away from the border areas.

Israel has committed these kinds of atrocities since day one. The number of innocent women and children murdered and maimed is appalling. Yet, in the West, the media and politicians make a big deal about the handful of WCK aid workers purposely massacred, while ignoring the tens of thousands of civilians purposely murdered by Israel.
