It feels like the whole world is on ‘pause’, waiting to see what happens next.

I’ve been mostly offline the last 48 hours until now, so I’m not coming to tell any chiddushim.

Whatever happens next – all of us have our work cut out for us to stay as close to God as possible.

Personally, I am feeling like I’m kind of ‘floating’ through the day at the moment, it’s been very hard to catch hold of myself, even in hitbodedut, for months and months already….

BH, I hope God is going to help as many of us as possible to get through this, as sweetly as possible.

====

Someone just sent me the sad news that:

Iranian Jew Arvin Netanel Ghahremani, 20, was executed by the Islamic Republic on Monday.

There has been so much death and bereavement going on this month in the Jewish world, I feel I am kind of going numb to it all, a bit, so I don’t get overwhelmed.

I don’t know if that’s a good thing or not.

But at least it’s helping me to carry on functioning, day to day.

==

I feel like on the one hand, I should / need to be doing more – more teshuva, more charity, more prayers, more everything, to try to ‘sweeten’ whatever is going on.

But I also feel like I can’t.

That I’m kind of ‘maxed out’ at the moment, and if I can keep paying my charity – as required by halacha – and keeping doing 3 TKs a day, plus the hour of hitbodedut, however it actually turns out, that’s all I can do right now.

I am relying on God’s mercy, at this point, as a free gift, just because He loves me.

====

So, as part of my attempts to stay ‘out of the news’ and away from information that a) may just be fake anyway, and b) is certainly inducing more anxiety than I want to be dealing with, even if it’s real – I am continuing to focus on other things.

One of those other things is a mission someone asked me to help out with, to track down someone called:

ORLY BERNSTEIN, 25, who apparently lives in Uman.

(Not for any ‘dodgy’ motivation, for a very nice reason, if we can find her.)

====

If you have any leads about ORLY BERNSTEIN, please email me or send me a comment, and I won’t publish it.

====

Second, someone else got given the following prayer from the Rav when they asked for a bracha for their elderly parent fell over and ended up in the hospital the last few days.

As this is literally the third story I have heard in 3 days, of ‘something bad just happened to my parent and now they are in hospital’, I am posting this prayer from the Rav up – BH, it will be a zchut for all our parents – and our loved ones, and ourselves – to stay healthy.

Especially, if we actually take the time to say it.

😉

==

I’ll be back with more real Jewish history later this week, BH.

While we all sit here, waiting to see which branch of ‘Amalek’ actually gets into the White House, and whether the masonic project to start WW3 in the Middle East really kicks off this week again, with more stage managed ‘rockets from Iran’….

Ah, if only Hulk Hogan would run for President…. now, that’s really a man you can trust to run a country.

[Sarcasm switch: off. Or maybe: on. I don’t even know anymore.]

We only have Hashem to rely on, in the meantime.

As the crazy world continues to feel even more surreal and crazy.

 

A new Shivivei Or came out.

***UPDATES BELOW***

So, I am back translating some of it for the blog.

The following is part of a shiur the Rav gave on Rabbenu’s Hiloula, the 4th day of Succot.

It is super-interesting – I will be updating this post as we go along, but let’s start with what the Rav actually said:

==

Excerpts of comments made by Rav Berland on the 4th day Chol Hamoed Succot, 5784: Hiloula of Rebbe Nachman of Breslov

Devorah [HaNavia] went totally mad.

If I was there, I would have put Valerian in her coffee, believe me.

What are you doing, going to fight with Putin, with Sisera?!

It’s written that with just one cry, Sisera could bring down a wall.[1]

“V’yaza’ak’[2] – he cried out.

==

It’s written in Likut Shimonei:

With each shout, a wall would fall down.

900 chariots of iron, 900 tanks, 900 MiGs, 900 drones, 900 rockets.

==

And Devorah said: I am not afraid of anything. So, who’s going with me? Who are the crazy people who are going to come with me?

It’s written[3]:

“[Why did you remain sitting at the borders to hear the bleatings of the flocks?] The indecision of Reuven demands great investigation.”

Reuven made out as though he was going to go [with Devorah].

Asher ran away – “But Asher [lived by the shores of the sea and] remained…”

And Dan boarded boats.

==

Denia (the Hebrew word for Denmark) – they say this is the Tribe of Dan.

There is a tradition by the Danish, that they come from the Tribe of Dan, that they crossed the whole Meditarranean Sea, and went around England by way of the English Channel.

They got to Denmark, this is the Tribe of Dan.

And so, only the Danish saved the Jews [during WW2], only the Danish, and Albania, and Boris II [III], King of Bulgaria, saved the Jews.

==

He said to Hitler: Wait for me, another month or two.

So Hitler saw that he wasn’t listening to him, so he put poison in his food, and he died after two months. Two months after he’d been by Hitler, he passed away – Boris II [III].

And he’s remembered in the book ‘The wagons returned empty’, all the wagon cars arrived.[4]

Translated from Shivivei Or, 381.

====

FOOTNOTES:

[1] See Yalkut Shimonei, Shoftim, Chapter 4, the note to verse 43.

[2] Shoftim, 4:13: “V’yaza’ak Sisera et kol rickvo, 900 rechev barzel”. The usual translation of ‘v’yaza’ak’ is to shout, or cry out, but Artscroll translates this verse like this: “Sisera mustered all his chariots – 900 iron chariots….”

[3] Shoftim 5:16.

[4] The note in Shivivei Or suggests this means that all the trains sent to collect the Jews from Bulgaria to take them to death camps during the time of Boris III were sent back empty.

====

As usual with the Rav, even the smallest remarks require a lot ‘unpacking’, to see what clues we’re being given about ‘real history’.

So, I started looking up about the Bulgarian “King Boris II”, who apparently got poisoned by Hitler, for refusing to join the Reich, and keeping his Jews safe for the first four years of the war.

Except – it seemed the Rav had make a mistake, and that was actually Bulgarian ‘King Boris III’.

====

You can read all about how he really was poisoned in 1943 – and still today, no-one knows who really did it, or why – here:

King Boris III of Bulgaria – on the Warfare History Network

Snippet:

Already, even before the king’s death, the doctors were discussing among themselves the possibility of poisoning, not heart disease. After three days of illness, the first public bulletin about the king’s malady was released.

Immediately, the people blamed Boris’s condition on his last trip to see the Fuhrer, although no one but his most trusted advisors knew what had transpired at Rastenburg.

====

Strangely, the slug for this piece appears as ‘King Boris II of Bulgaria’….

So, I went to look up more about ‘King Boris II’ of Bulgaria, just to see what was going on with that.

HERE is the standard Wiki page for ‘Boris II’ of Bulgaria.

He apparently lived 1,000 years ago, and was engaged in a war with the Byzantine Empire (which later continued on by ‘morphing’ into the Greek Orthodox Church branch of catholicism.)

====

I’m scrolling down, when this following paragraph caught my eye:

Although the ceremony in 971 had been intended as a symbolic termination of the Bulgarian empire, the Byzantines were unable to assert their control over the western provinces of Bulgaria.

These remained under the rule of their own governors, and especially of a noble family led by four brothers called the Kometopouloi (i.e., “the sons of the Count”), named DavidMosesAron, and Samuel. The movement was regarded as a “revolt” by the Byzantine emperor, but it apparently saw itself as a sort of regency for the captive Boris II.

As they began to raid neighboring territories under Byzantine rule, the Byzantine government resorted to a stratagem intended to compromise the leadership of this “revolt”. 

====

I am willing to bet that this family of ‘David, Moses, Aron and Samuel’ who ruled Bulgaria on behalf of King Boris II are Jews.

I am leaving this here for now, but BH, if I have time, I want to try and track down more about this family – feel free to join me!

If you find out anything interesting, let me know in the comments or via email.

There is nothing new under the sun…. and just as ‘Edom’ was trying to destroy Bulgaria’s independence and its Jews under Boris III, seems as though something very similar was occurring 1,000 years earlier, with Boris II on the throne….

====

Even the Rav’s seeming ‘mistakes’ are just clues to start unlocking so many mysteries and secrets.

Ashrenu, that we have a Rav like this in our generation.

==

UPDATE:

So, one of the interesting things I learned about ‘Samuel the Tzar of Bulgaria’ and his family, is that they seem to be connected into that strange Gnostic / Armenian ‘Hebrew-Xtian’ matrix, that seems to have been causing the real Jews so many problems, for at least 2,000 years.

We’re back to that whole discussion of ‘who is a Jew, really?’

Is it enough, to have Jewish genes, and Jewish descent, but to be worshipping idols – or ‘Lucifer’ – for centuries, and to still be ‘Jewish’?

Or does a genetic Jew stop being a Jew, if they and their ancestors spent the last few centuries literally creating and leading religions that are ‘anti’ God, and anti God’s Torah?

Even if they still have fantastic yichus?

====

This question is not rhetorical, I really don’t know.

And it’s still VERY current, as the Conversos have been mixed up in subjugating and corrupting the Jewish community from within (and also, from without….) for 500 years – and it’s still happening today.

====

In the meantime, I took a closer look at ‘Tsar Samuel of Bulgaria’, the maybe-regent of King Boris II, who was fighting the Byzantine empire for 40 years.

His son and successor is called GAVRIL RADOMIR of Bulgaria.

(Yes, he’s called GAVRIEL… another ‘Bulgarian’ name. Not.)

Here’s the snippet from his Wiki that caught my eye:

“Some sources connect Gavril Radomir with the medieval dualist sect, Bogomilism, a popular heretic movement that flourished in the Bulgarian region of Kutmichevitsa during his and his father’s reign.”

====

The BOGOMILS connect us straight back to JACOB FRANK – and a bunch of the other satanic secret societies dressed up as ‘alternative xtianity’, 250 years ago.

Here’s part of why that is interesting, headline from the GreekReporter site HERE:

Bogomils: The Christian Sect That Believed Satan Was Jesus’ Brother

====

Another snippet:

Gnosticism and Dualism

Bogomils were dualists and Gnostics. They believed in two creators, the God of Heaven and one of the Earth, Satanael. They also believed that man’s body was created by Satanael and his soul by God.

In other words, Heaven belongs to God and Earth to Satan. They believed that Satan was the eldest son of God and referred to him as Satanael.

====

They were ‘anti’ formal religion, anti the Catholic and Orthodox Churches – and also ‘anti’ the so-called ‘Old Testament’.

And here’s some more of why the Bogomils are interesting (from here):

Bogomils practiced a spiritual lifestyle related to that of the Catharism, considered a dangerous heresy for its radical egalitarianism of class, gender and sexuality. Frank appropriates Bogomil ideas of non-monogamy and non-heteronormativity, but enforces them through the hierarchy of his position as Messiah…

====

As always, this post could continue for another 4 million years.

But, the bottom line is that ‘Jacob Frank’ got at least some of his ideas from a visit to the Bogomils.

And it’s at least possible, that Frank and the Bogomils actually represented two streams of the same toxic stream that had been trying to ‘erode’ yiddishkeit for at least 2,000 years.

And the Bogomil stream seems to have begun under those Gnostic-Armenian ‘Hebrew Xtians’ with Hebrew names, who ruled Bulgaria 1,000 years back.

This week, Valencia in Spain got inundated with the heaviest rains in 30 years.

***UPDATES***

One of the Telegram channels I regularly check – and have been doing that, since the beginning of the plandemic – is La Quinta Columa, the Spanish researchers who have put so many bits of the puzzle together on the GO in the shots – and everywhere else.

They have crazy videos on their channel of the flooding in Spain, that has so far killed 158+ people and washed away thousands of cars, as rivers of muddy surge water roared through the streets.

Here’s one video, to give you a flavor of what’s happened there:

====

And here is another video, showing the giant hailstones that fell, and some of the damage they did to the cars they smashed into:

====

The bit that no-one except La Quinta Columna is telling people, publically, is this bit:

During the government of Ximo Puig, [they] destroyed more than 30 dams in the Valencian community, which served to channel, contain, and impound the water. 

====

When you take the time to scratch, even just a little, beneath ‘the official story’, you start to understand that this disaster wasn’t caused by ‘global warming’ or ‘climate change’.

It was caused by Spain’s government deliberately destroying the dams that would have prevented this fatal flooding from occurring.

The question is: why would they do that?

====

Meanwhile, other fatal floods are happening all over the world at the moment.

Two months’ worth of rain just fell overnight in the Phillippines, thanks to Storm Trami.

Which then also dumped 17 inches of rain on Vietnam, too.

Meanwhile, the Western Coast of the USA got hit by an unusual 6.0 earthquake, centred close to Oregon.

====

Earthquake forecaster DutchSinse has been mostly taken off line at the moment.

But he put something up for the first time in a month, about this unusual earthquake off the coast of Oregon:

====

It doesn’t matter where you live at the moment, life is feeling quite uncertain (with great British understatement….)

Most of us can feel that there is a battle raging between the forces of good and evil – and every major politician you can think of is firmly in the pocket of the ‘forces of evil’.

Make no mistake about that.

No-one gets to run a country today, anywhere in the world, unless they are a Bro in some masonic-satanic secret society, who is being controlled like a puppet, from the shadows at the back of the stage.

And that includes Trump.

====

Dear reader, I have so much new information opening up about who is really behind the mess our world is in.

I am planning to start sharing it, from the bottom-up, so more of us start to understand just how many lies we’ve been told, especially about the true purpose of the ‘political zionism’ project.

But in the meantime, and despite all the losses and pain we’ve endured as a people – not just recently, but over the last couple of centuries, in particular – I want to underline that God loves us, and is with us.

And right now, is still doing so many open miracles for us.

====

My husband told me he watched a video of a rocket falling into Nahariya, near their bridge there, that literally exploded itself 10 metres before making impact.

==

UPDATE:

Here’s a link to the video – apparently, it was a drone that exploded, when it hit one of the ‘strings’ of the bridge:

https://www.linkedin.com/posts/sagi-simchon-שגיא-שמחון-913bb193_new-interceptor-technology-from-israel-the-activity-7256978055418523648-BDRm

==

And so many of yesterday’s casualties in the rocket attacks in the North Israel were not Jewish. Even though every loss of innocent life is to be grieved, and not celebrated, let’s open up our eyes, and see that the Guardian of Israel doesn’t sleep and doesn’t slumber – even right now.

Especially right now.

====

So, there is no yeoush in the world, even though the Evils seem to be pulling all the stops out this week to up the chaos and destruction, worldwide.

I think it’s sign of desperation.

The timer has nearly run out on them.

So hang on, hold on – and just keep going with the prayers, the teshuva and especially, the kindnesses to other people.

All this turns around in the blink of the eye – for the very best.

====

UPDATE:

Here’s a couple more links, about the project to remove thousands of dams across Europe, but also the rest of the world, in the name of ‘preventing climate change’:

====

According to this site, ‘Dam Removal Europe‘, they’ve already dynamited 8,146 dams in Europe alone.

And they are still going.

====

Meantime, HERE is a firsthand account of a ‘survivor’ from the Valencia floods (google translate the Spanish).

The death toll is already at 276, but is probably going to carry on climbing.

Here’s the snippet that caught my eye:

Finally, I want to make something very clear: NO Valencian knew what was to come.

NO one warned us of the seriousness of the matter and so we carried on going about our business. When the flood came, we were almost all in the streets.

The people who died were KILLED, and the politicians must pay for this.

====

Basically, same as happened in the USA in places like North Carolina, in the aftermath of Hurricane Helene, where the government didn’t just ‘not help’ the citizens, it was actively working to stop volunteers organising to help the survivors – the same thing is happening in Valencia.

‘Man-made climate change’ is a real thing, don’t you know.

And it’s taking a huge amount of international co-ordination at the political level and military ‘hi-tech’, to get that particular ball rolling…..

====

Look at what was apparently floating off the coast of Valencia, shortly before the heavy rains began:

We only have God to rely on.

I’d love to share the video of this with you – but I can’t.

The Rav’s persecutors have made sure that pretty much every single video associated with the Rav, or Shuvu Banim, in any way, has been removed from Youtube.

So instead, go to the RavBerland.com site HERE, and you’ll see the post from many years ago, that used to hold the video.

BH, key parts of what the Rav said then were transcribed, and also translated into English.

I’ll bring some of that stuff below.

====

Before I do that, however, I want to highlight this bit of that very old post, on the RavBerland.com site:

“Note: This event really ticked off the Israeli government and immediately following the event they sought to silence the Rabbi by publishing false accusations in the Israeli media and then seeking to “question” him which in Israel means guilty until proven innocent, and like many before him he can sit in jail for years until and if through the tough bureaucracy his innocence is allowed to be proven.

Smartly he chose to leave the country before this could happen. But Israel does not give up quickly and they are chasing him around the world as if this peace supporter is the most dangerous person in the world.”

====

Honestly?

When I first read this, a decade ago, it seemed super far-fetched to me, that Rav Berland calling for peace in the Middle East would have sparked off the massive wave of State-sponsored persecution against him, that has continued unabated, ever since.

But these days?

After everything that is going on here, after uncovering the evidence that the masons want ‘WW3’ to begin dafka here in the failed State, and have been planning the ‘political zionism’ project for two centuries (at least….)

Well.

Let’s just say, it’s sounding way, way more credible to me, that a leading rabbi who was calling for peace – real peace, not ‘Miss World wants world peace’ stuff – could be viewed as such a threat to the Evils who are running the show from behind the scenes.

====

Here’s some snippets from what the Rav said in front of thousands of people, at the Winter Stadium in Tel Aviv in, June, 2012:

“The Talmud teaches us that we need to do acts of kindness to Arabs, it does not matter what kind of Arab it is!

Other than a terrorist we need to help and assist every single Arab in every way possible; with money, with encouragement, in every way possible, even to split the sea for him!

All the more so when we see the horrible massacre that is happening two hours from here [in Syria], right under our noses! And the entire world is silent!

Kofi Annan says we’ll take Ahmadinejad to make peace! He will stop the terrible massacre! This past Thursday 170 children were killed, two days ago 107 children, everyday they are slaughtering right under our noses, and Kofi Annan says, “We’ll take Ahmadinejad”! He will make peace! He who creates all the weapons of mass destruction! He will make peace!

==

What have we come to?!

What kind of merciless world have we come to?! The Nations of the world are silent.

And we the Israelite Nation, the Nation of Justice, Nation of Conscience, Nation of Fairness, The Israelite Nation is the conscience of the entire world!

The entire world lifts up their eyes to the Israelite Nation, the entire world believes in the Israelite Nation, the entire world knows that the Israelite Nation will bring the redemption, only the Israelite Nation will bring the Moshiach!

And now at this peace rally we need to come out with a strong objection to the entire world and demand immediate intervention in Syria, to stop the horrible massacre, to stop the terrible slaughtering by the Shabiha cult and the entire military, and to stand at the side of these unfortunate forlorn people.

==

It does not matter if they are Ishmaelite’s and it does not matter if afterwards terrorists will rise up from there, our first priority is to save the unfortunate children, the infants, the women, this is the first mission that the Nation of Israel must place before themselves.

“Beloved is man for he was created in Gods image”, every person is in the image of God!

There is no difference between Jew and Non-Jew! Everyone is in Gods image! Every person is composed of sparks of godliness! God created them all! All of mankind! 7 billion people – They are all the same!

For “Beloved is man who was created in Gods image”, and it doesn’t just say “beloved”, it says

“Excessive affection is deserving to man since he was created in Gods image”, this saying from the Ethics of our Fathers is said about all the nations of the world! 

====

Honestly?

When I first heard these words more than 10 years ago, they really stuck in my craw.

After decades of masonic-media brainwashing that the only good Ishmaelite is a dead Ishmaelite, and in the middle of the ‘stabbing intifada’ in Israel, I really didn’t know what to make of what the Rav was saying, here.

Now, the more of the onion we peel back on ‘real Jewish history’, the more it’s obvious that the real enemy of the Jewish people is Edom.

There is still so much to learn and share about the subject of what really happened here in the Middle East, before the creation of ‘political zionism’, but the long story short is that the Edomite-satanic-‘xtian’-masons set things up deliberately, right from the start, to use the Jews as their ‘tool’ to control the Middle East – and exploit it’s immense natural resources for themselves.

==

Even today, so much of this ‘war’ is simply about who gets to exploit the oil fields and gas reserves up in the Golan, and offshore.

And that exploitation won’t be done for the good of either the Jews, or the Arabs.

It will simply be the same super small group of satanic masons who benefit, while their bought-and-paid for ‘political puppets’ try to fool the rest of us that government is being run for our benefit, and that ‘democracy’ means we have a say, and a choice.

====

Do you know why people used to worship ‘the Moloch’?

Why people would willingly tithe every tenth child, to be burnt on its altar?

Because they thought that’s how they were guaranteeing their peace, security and economic prosperity.

God created the world with free choice, so ‘worshipping the Moloch’, or ‘worshipping the Ba’al’  seemed to work, to solve people’s problems.

====

Let’s imagine how one of those ‘conversations’ between Moloch-worshippers and people who really believe in God might have gone, circa 2024 BCE:

Uh oh, Shmuel, the Midianites are threatening us again on the Northern border!!!

Dan, it’s all because you are just sitting there and learning your Torah all day, instead of sharing the burden and sending one of your kids to get burnt for the Moloch!!!

Don’t you know, Dan, you have to do some hishtadlooot?!

That you can’t just sit there all day learning Torah, guarding your eyes and praying, and expect that God is going to come and save you from our enemies!!!

Now, I’ve sent three of my kids to pass through the firing-range for the Moloch – I got a discount with one of them, they just chopped off his leg and burnt it – but enough is enough!!! I’ve sacrificed so much for you, my Torah-obsessed neighbor, three of my children!!!

And now, it’s your turn, Dan!!!

Come and do your part, to protect the nation!!! Stop all that ridiculous praying and Torah learning, and come burn your kid for the Moloch!!!

It’s the least you could do….

====

Really?

There is nothing new under the sun.

Yesterday, we worshipped the Moloch and the Baal, and we were so sure, so convinced, that we had to do that hishtadlooot, to get enough to eat, the crops to grow, and our borders protected.

And today – we worship the IDF.

We tell ourselves stories that without the soldiers, there would be nothing to protect the State of Israel from its enemies!

Without going to the IDF, there’s no way my kid could get a good job, and be able to support his family!

If we don’t continue to sacrifice our children on the altar of the Moloch – things just can’t turn around for us, any other way!!!

====

HISHTADLOOOOOOOSSSSSS!

====

Deep, deep sigh.

To be clear, if God decides to wage war, on God’s terms, and we are told that by a bona fide ‘prophet’ – great! I’m all for milchemet mitzvah!

I am also totally all for people defending their own lives, and the lives of their loved ones, anyway they can, including with weapons, when they are being directly threatened.

But that’s not what is going on here.

There is no justification to keep sending our holy sons, brothers and fathers into booby-trapped buildings – 4 and 5 times over, into the exact same booby-trapped building – whilst refusing to even do minimum safety checks with drones and sniffer dogs.

====

Committing suicide is not a Jewish value.

It’s not something the Torah agrees with on any level.

But yes, sure, it’s something that forms the basis of the pagan ‘religions’ that glorified human sacrifice as they only way to pacify ‘the gods’.

====

Here’s the last thing I wanted to share with you, in this post, to clarify a bit more Rav Berland’s view of war.

It’s also from that same talk he gave at the Winter Stadium, 14 years ago, just before the failed State tried to shut him up permanently.

Throw away all instruments of war!

Throw away all your weapons! Begin singing! Just sing!” So Jehoshaphat said to them “If you believe in the words of the Prophet then you can win over all of your enemies only through song and music”.

Because all of our victories and all of the wars that we won through the use of weapons are not considered “victories”!

Any war that is won through weapons is not eternal, they also have weapons, they have the atom bomb, one day everything can turn around.

“Victory” is only what we win through the power of song and music which awakens the Jewish spark in every nation in every gentile, in every single Arab, for there does not exist an Arab or gentile that does not have within him a Jewish spark.

We just need to arouse that spark then automatically there will be peace in the entire world!

Then “The wolf will live with the sheep and the leopard will lie down with the goat; the calf, the lion and the sheep will walk together and a young child will lead them, a cow and bear will graze together, and an infant will play by a viper’s hole” (Isaiah 11:6).”

====

The Rav has said clearly, very recently, that we are going to get to a stage where ‘the war’ is going to be fought only and solely by God, and His anointed Moshiach.

And that even if the IDF would want to fight, it’s not going to be able to.

Between now and then, it looks like a bunch more people are going to sadly end up being killed, fighting on behalf of the Moloch.

There is no point arguing.

So just pray, pray, and pray some more, for God to protect all of us, and especially, the soldiers being sent to their deaths – pointlessly.

====

If other people want to carry on sacrificing their children to the Moloch, that’s up to them. But keep yourselves and your loved ones out of it.

And stick to learning Torah, doing kindnesses, and trying to serve Hashem with everything you’ve got.

That’s the only real hishtadloossss to be done here.

Until Moshiach finally shows up.

 

Rav Berland’s Prayer for the Protection and Defense of Israeli Soldiers

====

English translation:

Ribonu shel Olam, Who can do anything, please have mercy, and please save our brothers, the Children of Israel, the people in the army.

Who are sacrificing themselves every moment and every second, in order to protect Am Yisrael, and who are casting their souls before them, and who are fighting until their very last drop of blood, with all their heart and soul –

With all of their nefesh, ruach, neshama, chaya and yehida[1].

With all of their 248 limbs and 365 sinews, for the success of Am Yisrael.

And so, rescue them from every trouble and precipice.

From every injury and disease.

And send [them] blessing and success in all their actions.

And forgive them for their sins and transgressions.

==

And in the merit of this – their self-sacrifice, at every moment and every second – save them from every enemy, adversary[2] and accuser, and nullify every [spiritual] accuser against them.

And in the merit of there self-sacrifice, there will be real, total teshuva from love.

And give them the merit of keeping Shabbat, and to don tzitzit and tefillin, and to perform all 613 mitzvot, from true love.

And to see Hashem face-to-face, at every moment and every second.

And they should know Hashem, Who is rescuing them every moment and second, from every trouble and precipice, and from every injury and illness, from every adversary and terrorist, and from every accuser.

==

And Hashem Yitbarach, out of His love for Am Yisrael, forgives and pardons, until every last one will return to Him in real, complete teshuva.

And they will merit to build a beit ne’eman (Jewish home), for all the generations.

Amen.

====

My friend’s son is in the army.

He went to Rav Berland yesterday for a bracha, and got given this prayer, written by the Rav. My friend asked if I could publicise it – and I am very happy to do that.

The Hebrew may be a little less ‘clear’, because it’s a screenshot of the picture she sent me, whereas usually I have the hard copy of the prayer here, and I scan it in, to make it as ‘clear’ as possible.

==

One of the two Telegram channels (and by far the best one…) that I still look at is Kipaadu (Little Red Riding Hood, in Hebrew).

She just posted this up.

(Screenshot):

The basic idea is for people to tell anyone they have in the army to refuse to enter a house that hasn’t first at least been ‘scanned’ by a drone, to identify explosives.

She is saying that the soldiers who are insisting on this oh-so-basic measure are NOT being ‘exploded’ en masse, when they enter a booby-trapped building, either in Gaza or Lebanon.

And the soldiers who are not insisting on this oh-so-basic measure – are coming back crippled, or in coffins.

May God avenge their blood, and protect all the soldiers.

And especially, the soldiers who were raised in the dati leumi cult of the ‘holy State’, where it was made the biggest mitzvah to pass your child through the ‘firing range’ of Moloch.

==

In the meantime, one of my friends was telling me about a first-hand PTSD story of a soldier back from Gaza.

His job in the army is to operate a bulldozer.

Let’s assume every single person in Gaza is the most evil terrorist on the face of the planet, for the sake of argument. Let’s assume, purely for the sake of argument, that this really is a milchemet mitzvah, a holy war.

This poor guy was commanded to ‘bulldoze’ an area which contained human remains. I’m assuming they were already dead, but who knows, at this point.

Everything spurted out, my friend told me, apologetically.

Now the guy is so traumatised, he can’t touch meat. And he just keeps thinking about it.

==

This story is true.

It doesn’t fit the ‘heroic’ picture of milchemet mitzvah, does it?

It doesn’t sound like the sort of thing anyone would want their child to be doing, even for ‘holy’ reasons.

Does it?

What a terrible desecration of the human body, created in the image of Hashem.

Even if it really is just the worst terrorists in the world, getting this treatment.

==

So, we know the dati leumi brainwashing is a very hard nut to crack.

We can thank ACHVA Bro Rav Kook, for setting up a whole theology that turned ‘the State’ into an idol to worship, mamash, and for blowing new life into the idolatrous notion of ‘passing your child through fire’ for Moloch.

Ah, I meant ‘for the State’. Woopsie…

We can’t argue with people who see that 64 soldiers were killed in battle in October alone – and are still encouraging their family members to pull on their uniforms to go and fight in this milchemet mitzvah.

We still can’t broach the idea that GUNS was never the answer, the solution, to staying secure in Eretz Yisrael, and that we should have been putting all our eggs in the basket labelled ‘GOD’ – right from the start.

But we can, and absolutely must, still pray for the soldiers.

==

We can send this prayer around to everyone we know, and we can encourage people to turn to God to protect their children and fathers and brothers in the army.

And we can stop buying into the idea that ‘the army is what is protecting us here in Israel’.

Because it’s God Who is protecting us.

And the people who need the most protection of all, at this point, are our soldiers.

==

Last thing, I got an update on the Rav’s Torah Scroll.

The Rav said a year ago, that once that Torah scroll is completed, this horrendous, pointless, bloody ‘show’ war will stop.

They now have three scribes working on the project full time, and a deadline of completion of Tevet 23, 5785 (January 23, 2025).

Like you, I wish that date was today’s….

But at least the end is in sight now: JANUARY 23, 2025.

==

They have raised 82% of the money required, but there is still 18% to go.

I know we are all totally skint at the moment, post-chagim, but the sooner the Torah scroll is written, the faster the war ends.

So, take whatever money you can spare – and everyone is still obligated to give 10% of whatever income they DO have to charity, even if they are destitute – and consider donating it as a pidyon for yourself, your loved ones – and especially, the people you care about who are at risk of being blown to pieces in Gaza and Lebanon.

(I know, I should have said ‘killed in the fighting’, but actually, that’s really not what is happening. The soldiers being killed are mostly being blown up, because our own army is refusing to secure booby-trapped buildings with drones and dogs, before sending our precious men in. How do the ‘normies’ explain this? How can they explain this?)

==

Here are the details – they are suggested amounts, but feel free to give whatever you can.

Every cent helps.

Every cent creates another angel, another zchut, for the person, the people, who it’s being donated for.

And every cent brings us nearer to this awful war finally being concluded.

PS: If you want to see how bad the brainwashing for the death cult of ‘the State / Moloch’ really is in the Dati Leumi world, take a look at the RationalistJudaism Substack, HERE.

As usual, it’s full of one-sided propaganda about ‘Rosh Yeshivas speaking out’ – in favor of more poor Jews being sent to their deaths, and totally devoid of any deeper analysis, or ‘balanced reasoning’ about what is really wrong with this war, and the IDF – and the whole failed State.

And hey, Slifkin, maybe did you miss the article by the R ELIYAHU ZINI, the head of the Haifa Hesder Yeshiva, explaining very clearly how the army is sending hundreds of our soldiers to their deaths, pointlessly?

Here it is again:

https://did.li/wcXCN

===

There’s one comment on the ‘RationalistJudaism’ site, that may be from a real ‘dati leumi’ woman called ChanaRachel, or that may just be more ‘influencers’ working to keep the brainwashing in place, that was particularly awesome, in just how ‘deranged’ it is.

Screenshot:

====

Come again?!

Last I heard, this war is being directed by the Government and the Chief of Staff, not the chareidim.

It’s the State who is ‘destroying too many Jewish families’.

And this comment is coming perilously close to the blood libels of olde, where the Joooooos were being blamed for everything that was wrong in gentile society.

Except the Joooooos in our failed State are now labelled ‘chareidim’ – at least, in the brainwashed dati leumi world, where sending more chareidim to get pointlessly slaughtered is being touted as ‘the solution’ to what’s going on here.

==

Tov.

BH, God should open our eyes to what is really going on here.

And we should stop all the ‘hate’, all the sinat chinam – and all the blame games, looking for ‘chareidi scapegoats’ to try and make ourselves feel better about the terrible situation that is going on here.

Amen.

 

 

 

 

OKAY, let’s get to part II of the deep-dive on SAINT SIMONISM.

Before you begin, you should know this stuff is taking me weeks to ‘shake down’ into even a semblance of being easy to read and simple to follow.

Part of the problem is that they covered up all the main players in real Jewish history, so none of us have that store of ‘internalised knowledge’ about these people that makes it easier to place names and deeds in context.

So, if it’s a little hard-going, I sympathise.

But each time we take another swipe at this, it will get easier to digest it, and to finally make sense of what is going on.

At some point!

====

To recap what we learnt in Part I:

SAINT SIMON was a French nobleman whose family were mixed up with LOUIS XV’s ‘Secrets du Roi’ spy agency.

He developed a philosophy, post the French Revolution, of creating a new ‘religion without God’, God forbid.

The high-priests and prophets of this new religion, which he called NEW CHRISTIANITY, were meant to be scientists.

The proposals included turning ISAAC NEWTON’s tomb in to some sort of pilgrimage site, or ‘scientific tzaddik’ grave. (They later gave up on that, and replaced Newton with ‘Saint Darwin’, instead.)

Many of his ideas about creating a world which worshipped science, industry and logic, quite literally, were later picked up people like KARL MARX (more on that shortly).

He had a bunch of ‘crypto Jews’ leading up his new religion after his death, most notably including members of the extended GRADIS family of French crypto Jews, who helped finance the American Revolution.

==

In the last post, we focussed-in on OLINDE BENJAMIN RODRIGUES-HENRIQUES, and his brother EUGENE, who are great-grandsons of ‘the King of Bordeaux’, ABRAHAM GRADIS.

And then, we were starting to learn more about OLINDE’s maternal first cousins, EMILE and ISAAC PEREIRE, who were French bankers and industrialists who partnered with JAMES DE ROTHSCHILD and BARON ADOLPHE D’EICHTAL (grandson of ARON ELIAS SELIGMAN, Court Jew of Bavaria) on a lot of projects.

At that point, a ton of new info started appearing, so I realised I better start spliting it up into different posts.

So today, let’s return to the GRADIS / RODRIGUES-HENRIQUES family of crypo Jews, to see what other connections we can make between ‘NEW CHRISTIANITY’ and crypto-Jewish bankers who were adherents to this new ‘religion of industrialisation and science’, that booted God firmly out of the picture.

==

We’ll take a closer look at the PEREIRE brothers in a moment, but before we do that, there is another very prominent adherent of SAINT SIMONISM in this very small family tree.

I started to write a bit about the EICHTAL family HERE, in a post called JEWISH JESUITS AND BERLIN BANKERS.

==

To sum up the main points for this post, there is a family of Berlin bankers called the SELIGMANS.

One ELIAS (ELI) LEIMAN SELIGMANN (1710 – 1777) married one VERONICA FROMET LEMLE – and they had six kids, who intermarried with all the leading court Jews, bankers and Frankists all over Europe.

==

Now, I already know most people can’t hack the genealogy bit of all this research.

So, I’m going to put more of the details for the heritage nerds in the footnotes, while we focus in one of ELI and VERONICA’s sons, called:

ARON ELIAS SELIGMANN  (1747 – 1824) – he’s a German court Jew and the main creditor for the Kingdom of Bavaria, that apparently owed him the astronomical amount of ‘110 million’.

ARON ELIAS changed his name to LEONHARD, got ennobled as BARON LEONHARD VON EICHTAL, then converted to Roman Catholicism in 1819.[1]

This family of SELIGMAN / D’EICHTALS court Jew bankers are very tightly tied to the Bohemian Frankists, including ‘Jacob Frank’ himself. (See the footnotes for more details).

==

One of d’EICHTAL’s sisters is called HELENE ELISABETH HEILE ROSE SELIGMANN (1752-1793).

She marries NAFTALI HERTZ SALOMON OPPENHEIM, from that same, infamous Oppenheim family who has given us so many of our corrupted court Jews and notorious converts to xtianity.

==

Again, go back to the original post HERE for more details  – or see the footnotes.[2]

 

==

HELENE ELIZABETH and NAFTALI HERTZ SALOMON have a bunch of kids.

And that branch of the family degenerates, within a generation, into including a bunch of Jewish-Jesuit RATISBONNE converts to Roman Catholicism[3], who start buying up huge parcels of land in Eretz Yisrael, in the mid 1850s – and then building Jesuit-linked churches and monasteries all over the country.[4]

All with one eye on ‘converting the Jews’ – especially, in Eretz Yisrael.

====

OK, let’s get back to ‘SAINT SIMON’ and his new religion.

On the French Wiki HERE, we learn that one GUSTAV SELIGMANN D’EICHTAL (1804-1886) becomes one of the main ‘missionaries’ for this new religions of SAINT SIMON, that puts ‘science’ in the place of ‘God’, God forbid a million times.

Here he is:

Snippet:

 

“At the age of thirteen [GUSTAV D’EICHTAL] became a convert to Roman Catholicism from Judaism, and when he left the Lycée Henri IV in 1822, he became a disciple of Auguste Comte, who initiated him into the doctrines of Saint-Simon (and later Barthélemy Prosper Enfantin),[1] to the propagation of which he devoted a part of his fortune.”

It continues:

 

“ He had two sons, Eugène Séligmann d’Eichthal, born 3 November 1844 in Paris, died 28 February 1936 in Paris; and Georges Séligmann d’Eichthal, as well as a daughter whose married name was Mme. Paul Le Bret.

She had been a friend of Rosa Bonheur when they were both children, as their fathers had both lived briefly at the Saint-Simonian monastery at Ménilmontant.”

==

But of course, the Wiki bios about these people are always incredibly coy about connecting the dots about who else GUSTAV SELIGMAN D’EICHTAL  is related to.

Because once those dots are connected, we’d start to understand very quickly how the whole world is really being controlled by a very small group of interconnected people.

==

HERE is the archived link to the ‘D’EICHTAL SELIGMANN’ family tree.

And here is a screenshot, that shows that GUSTAVE – the Roman Catholic ‘disciple’ of SAINT SIMONISM (red arrow) is actually the paternal grandson of ARON ELIAS SELIGMAN VON EICHTAL, court Jew in Bavaria (blue arrow).

====

Dear reader, this SELIGMAN family is at the heart of the so-called ‘Frankist network’ that got busy corrupting the Jewish community from within – and most people have never even heard of them.

==

GUSTAV D’EICHTAL’S father in law was EDUARD RODRIGUES – this guy:

Also, a convert to Catholicism, also a banker with big interests in developing French railway routes – and also, a leading ‘missionary’ of SAINT SIMONISM, that ‘new christianity’ religion-without-a-God.

HERE is his Wiki page, and this is a snippet:

Son of the banker Benjamin Rodrigues (1769-1838) and Nancy Robles, Édouard Rodrigues became a stockbroker in Paris, associated in his office with Ferdinand Moreau, who followed his brother Henry as syndic of the stockbrokers of the Paris market.

Édouard Rodrigues was an important financier and Saint-Simonian.[5]

==

Check out the footnotes, you’ll see he’s got quite the resume!

Snippet continues:

A convert to Catholicism, he made his first communion in the chapel of the archbishop’s palace at the age of seventy-five.

Married to Sophie Lopes Henriques de Saa (1802-1861), who was the daughter of Isaac Lopes Henriques de Saa, merchant in the St. Thomas Islands and member of the Grand Sanhedrin, and sister-in-law of Henry Vieyra Molina.

==

THE GRAND SANHEDRIN was one of the main ways Napoleon and his fellow satanic masons, including a lot of Portuguese-French ‘crypto Jews’, attempted to corrupt the Jewish community from within.

I started writing a bit about it HERE – but we didn’t even start scratching the surface, of what that GRAND SANHEDRIN was really about, and who was really involved in it – and how all this connects to both ‘Frankists’ and ‘Reform Judaism’.

==

Meanwhile, HENRY VIEYRA MOLINA is another formerly Portuguese half-Jewish-xtian-mason (or it could be the other way round…) who somehow comes to be heading up part of the French army in 1851, and causes another coup d’etat in France.

That brings another Napoleon to the throne.

Here’s a snippet from his Wiki page:

Colonel and chief of the general staff of the national Guard, [HENRY VIEYRA MOLINA] contributed significantly to the coup of 2 December 1851 , and prevented the National Guard from taking up their weapons during the event.

==

In other words – he was a corrupt army chief working for the French satanic masons, to re-install LOUIS NAPOLEON BONAPARTE as ruler of the country.

And a big part of how that happened, is that he refused to let the army he was controlling to use their weapons, to stop the coup from happening.

Does anything I just wrote here sound familiar?

==

As usual with this stuff, there is more information appearing than I know what to do with.

So, let’s bring it back around to JEAN ISAAC JACOB RODRIGUES-HENRIQUES (JIJRH, for short), and the PEREIRE brothers.

JIJRH (1771-1846) is this guy:

He is for sure very close family with all these other ‘RODRIGUES-HENRIQUES’, but I still can’t tell you exactly how, as they have covered their tracks very well.[6]

This guy is made ‘secretary’ of Napoleon’s GRAND SANHEDRIN in 1807.

Two of his children, OLINDE BENJAMIN and EUGENE RODRIGUES are leading supporters, and ‘missionaries’ of that same SAINT SIMON ‘new xtianity’ religion, which aims to replace God with science, God forbid, that we covered in Part I.

Isaac’s daughter Rachel also marries one EMILE PEREIRE – this guy:

Who also becomes a leading supporter and missionary for this new, man-made, SAINT SIMONISM Godless religion.

==

Another daughter marries the Italian philosopher CHARLES SARCHI – and whaddya know? He is another leading missionary for the ‘SAN SIMON’ God-less religion, and big ‘science pusher’.

Meanwhile, another daughter, Sophronie, marries one DAVID ANDRADE, the son of ABIGAIL D’AGUILAR[7] and  R’ ABRAHAM ANDRADE, the chief rabbi of Bordeaux – and another senior member of Napoleon’s GRAND SANHEDRIN.

==

The point is: this whole family are converting to Roman Catholicism, and ALSO pushing ‘SAN SIMONISM’’s ‘new xtianity’ to replace God with Isaac Newton.

And they are also super-rich bankers, who have fingers in so many Victorian industrialisation projects, including the biggest banks – and building the railways.

AND – they are thick as thieves with Napoleon, and his wider network of satanic masons.

And one of the key ways they are trying to ‘reform’ (= destroy) Judaism, is via the GRAND SANHEDRIN.

==

I know all this is a lot to keep straight.

So, let’s end this post by taking a closer look at banker EMILE PEREIRE, and then we are going to stop with the French Frankist-masons, and pick it back up with the American Frankist-masons in the next installment.

==

HERE is EMILE PEREIRE’s French Wiki page.

The pertinent things to note are:

  • His brother ISAAC PEREIRE is also a banker, and also marries into the family of SAINT SIMON missionaries / pretend Jews, aka the RODRIGUES-HENRIQUES, where he starts making ‘SAINT SIMON’ propaganda to sway the masses – (aka, starts a newspaper, or three.)
  • He’s super-rich, hanging out with the French Rothschilds and Eichtal-Seligmanns – and also building railroads all over the place.

Snippet:

In 1835, together with his brother Isaac, he busy the chemin de fer de Saint-Germain, whose $ 5 million guarantee was made by James de RothschildAdolphe d Eichthal , and a few other financiers. After the success of this operation, he undertook the construction of the chemins de fer du Nord (1845), Auteuil, Argenteuil, Midi (1852), the Rhone-and-Loire (1853), by the Austrian State and the East of Switzerland (1855), in the North of Spain (1856), Russia, etc

==

He founds the CREDIT MOBILIER in 1852.

And also has a big role to play in other massive French financial institutions including CREDIT AGRICOLE, and the OTTOMAN BANK.

In 1868, he becomes the director of the French TRANSATLANTIC COMPANY.

Like so many of the other Frankist-masons, he spends a lot of time trying to break down the barriers between ‘Jew’ and ‘gentile’, and he’s also a big believer in political emancipation, even becoming a member of the French parliament.

==

Oh, and he’s a full-time missionary for his SAINT SIMON religion, which literally aims to replace God with science.

==

One of his main business partners (and close family members….) ADOLPHE d’EICHTAL.

Adolphe is Gustav’s son – and apparently also into replacing God with science.

He’s also a ‘big banker’. Oh, and in 1828, dear Adolphe becomes director of the SOCIETY FOR CHRISTIAN MORALITY.[8]

And also founds or directs a whole bunch of ‘science-pushing’ organisations in France, including the French Association for the Advancement of Science.

Of course.

It all goes together, for these Frankist-masons we keep uncovering here.

==

You can read more about some of the members of this Frankist-masonic SELIGMANN-EICHTAL family of bankers HERE.

We are still only scratching the surface in this post, and don’t forget, this is the same family that gave us the Jewish-Jesuit RATISBONNES, who built their monasteries and cathedrals all over the Holy Land in the 19th century.

And who were obsessed with trying to ‘convert’ Jews out of yiddishkeit.

==

These SELIGMANN-EICHTAL Frankist-masons were located in Bavaria, where they were court Jews.

In the next post, we’re hopping over the pond to take a closer look at the late Victorian SELIGMAN bankers of New York – also apparently from Bavaria…..

‘Official history’ likes to pretend that of course, these people aren’t connected.

If you believe that, I have a bridge in Brooklyn to sell you.

==

We’ll learn how the NY Seligmans somehow also managed to become multi-multi millionaires, build a ton of railways, set up a ton of banks, hang out with a ton of American politicians – and also advocated the radical reform of, and sometimes also the total abolition of, Judaism.

So, we’ll pick up another thread of this story with with ‘Our Crowd’, over on Fifth Avenue, 150 years ago.

Until then.

====

FOOTNOTES:

[1] ARON ELIAS SELIGMAN (VON EICHTAL) has a sister, KAROLINA JOSEFA SELIGMAN (1745 – 1811), who married another ‘ennobled’ banker, ADAM ALBERT JOSEF VON HENIKSTEIN.

ADAM is the brother of ISRAEL HONIG VON HONIGSBURG, court Jew in Brunn, and holder of the Imperial Tobacco Monopoly.

This family are very close relatives of ‘SCHONDEL DOBRUSKA’ and the false messiah ‘JACOB FRANK’.

==

Another one of ARON ELIAS SELIGMANN VON EICHTAL’s daughters is called RACHEL SOPHIE.

She marries one LEOPOLD SIMON RITTER VON LAMEL (1790 – 1867).

His mother is BABETTE DUSCHENES – and if that name sounds familiar, it’s because I did a whole big research project on how the Frankist DUSCHENES family actually funded the ‘Old Yishuv’ in Eretz Yisrael, and had very close links with the Vilna Gaon’s band of Perushim.

More on that another time.

Maybe.

His son LOUIS AARON SELIGMAN (1780-1790) marries one FLEURETTE LEVY who descends from the SEGAL and GANS families I write about so much here.

(DAVID GANS was an astronomer in Prague who was hanging out with Bohemian royalty and people like Tycho Brahe. He was also the first Jew to have the so-called ‘star of David’ engraved on his tombstone…)

==

[2] If you go HERE, to the expanded family tree for NAFTALI HERTZ SALOMON OPPENHEIM, you will find it literally crawling with Rothschilds, Schnappers, ‘Bauers’, Schwabs (!) – and Freemason-Frankist court Jews of every stripe.

Who all descend from that same ‘Kohen Tzedek’ family I keep mentioning here, that ties us back to the SHACH (and more ‘xtian-cohen’ court Jews.)

==

[3] The following snippet comes from HERE – a catholic blog talking about some notable Jews who converted to xtianity:

“In 1842, a 28-year-old French Jew named Alphonse Ratisbonne was visiting Rome. He was the youngest son of an important banking family in Strasbourg, a close relation of the Rothschilds.

As often happens with European Jews, a family takes the name of a city. The French Ratisbonne comes from Ratisbona, the Latin name for Regensburg, a famous German city near Munich.

Alphonse was a Jew by race and religion, virulently anti-Catholic, and libertine in his customs.”

==

But then, Alphone Ratisbonne has a ‘vision’, and ends up converting. The piece continues:

“His conversion had enormous repercussions over all Christendom. The entire Catholic world became aware of it and was impressed by it. Afterward, Ratisbonne became a Jesuit priest.

Ten years later, he and his brother Theodore, who also had converted from Judaism, founded a religious congregation – the Congregation of Sion – turned to the conversion of the Jews.”

==

[4] When I start looking for more info on that ‘Congregation’ devoted to converting Jews, I get to a page on the WayBack Machine, HERE.

This is more of what I learn:

In 1850 he engaged in mission work among convicts in Brest.

Two years later, with authorization of the Jesuit Superior General, Jan Philipp Roothaan, and the blessing of Pope Pius IX  he left the Society of Jesus to join his brother Théodore and the ‘Pères de Sion’ in Paris.

In 1855, he moved to Palestine where he spent the rest of his life.

In 1858, he established the Convent of Ecce Homo in the Old City of Jerusalem for the Sisters of Sion. 

In 1860, he built the Convent of St. John on a hilltop in Ein Karem, then a village on the outskirts of Jerusalem.

In 1874, he founded the Ratisbonne Monastery, now a Salesian study center in Jerusalem’s Rehavia neighborhood.

Marie-Alphonse Ratisbonne died in Ein Karem on May 6, 1884 and is buried in the cemetery of that convent.

==

[5] His Wiki page continues to list his financial positions, like this:

“ Limited partner of Pleyel, Wolff & Cie and the company Ernest Goüin et Cie, vice-president of the Compagnie du chemin de fer de Paris à Saint-Germain, he is also a director of the Compagnie des chemins de fer de l’Ouest, the Société de construction des Batignolles, the Crédit mobilier, the Caisse d’épargne, the Sous-comptoir des chemins de fer (Comptoir national d’escompte), etc.”

==

[6] The HENRIQUES are also the ancestors of the false messiah, (fake named) JACOB FRANK, and the ‘Bad Baal Shem’ of London, the sorcerer and founder of ‘The Golden Dawn’ secret society, SAMUEL CHAIM FALK, JACOB FRANK’s first father in law.

[7] Abigail D’Aguilar is possibly the daughter of the first Baron D’Aguilar, the big friend of the anti-semitic Austrian Empress Maria Theresa. The Baron has a daughter Abigail who officially marries one JACOB FRANCO…. I would not be totally shocked, if ABRAHAM ANDRADE and ‘JACOB FRANCO’ end up being the same person.

[8] There is a lot more going on with this organisation than meets the eye. LaFayette – another leading French mason – is also one of its founders, and they appear to be in cahoots with unidentified ‘supporters’ back in Britain.

These are not new comments from Rav Berland.

The Rav is currently keeping pretty quiet about what is going on, at least, I’m not hearing or reading very much ‘new stuff’ to share at the moment.

But when I was re-reading Conversations II, which bring together a bunch of what the Rav said at the end of 2023, a couple of those passages really jumped out at me.

One of them is about Armilus the Rasha:

ARMILUS THE RASHA HAS ONE EYE

It’s written that Armilus the Rasha will come with ‘one eye’.

Armilus the Rasha, who will make the war of Gog and Magog, he will come with just one eye. He will have just one eye in his forehead.

You should know, that this is Armilus. Know how to recognise him! Identify him!

But only the great-grandchildren of the great-grandchildren of your great-grandchildren will see him, Armilus the Rasha.

Then, no trace of the Jewish people will remain, just 7,000 men. From all Am Yisrael, just 7,000! And then Armilus the Rasha will come with his one eye, and he’s meant to conquer Eretz Yisrael – but he won’t succeed.

====

At this stage, hopefully most of us can make the connection between the ‘one eye’  of Armilus the Rasha and the ‘illuminated eye’ of the satanic secret societies that took over the world 2-300 years ago.

====

Then, the Rav also said this, in a totally different shiur:

(I am skipping the first part, where the Rav is talking about the importance of conducting relations in a state of kedusha, even between a married couple.)

====

THE MASONS WANT TO MAKE A NEW RELIGION

Excerpt from Shiur given on Motzae Shabbat, 23rd December, 2023 at the Beit HaRav

==

All the masons, the bonim chofshim (freemasons), their ‘symbol’ is the Beit HaMikdash (Temple).

They want to make a new religion, that the Beit HaMikdash will be in Jerusalem, and each person will do whatever he wants.

Everyone will come to ‘pray’, and everyone will just do whatever they want. And their whole goal is to make a new religion, and the Beit HaMikdash will be at its centre – but each person will do whatever they want to do.

Everyone can come to their Beit HaMikdash to pray – an Arab, a notzri, it doesn’t matter. An Indian, someone from India, from China, Thailand, Nepal, Tibet, everyone – all the nations united under a single ‘Beit HaMikdash’.

And this is the symbol, the Beit HaMikdash.

==

And even, even Bibi is a member there.

Everyone is a haver (member, but can also mean ‘friend’). Biden is a member.

They have protection.

Whoever is a member, so they work with the courts so that nothing should be done to them.

He can steal, kill – whatever he wants.

(So now, everyone should go and become a member of the bonim chofshim…. Everyone.)

==

BE CAREFUL!

So now, we are asking everyone, that on the night of Nital (xmas eve), not to hang around on the streets, and to be careful….

Because now, the Hamas, in another little while, will already get to Jerusalem.

Because the plan was for the Hamas to get to Ashdod. This was the plan of the medina.

That by way of this, they would pull the ‘right’ down. Everything was planned.

They went through all the security teams, from all the kibbutzim, and took their weapons away from them.

They sent them [the army units usually stationed on the border] to Huwara, they sent them to here, they emptied out the whole army.[3]

==

And those that came, they didn’t give them guns.

They told them, we don’t have the key to the armoury…. We need to do a list – to give out [the guns] according to the list.

And like this, they dragged it out for two days, three. They only got to Kissufim on the fourth day, in the morning. And the earliest they got there was 10pm at night (i.e. Motzae Simchat Torah), after they’d already slaughtered a thousand young men and a thousand young women.

All this was planned.

==

Now, they publicised that everything was planned, down to the smallest exact details, which day, and everything.

Everything was exact. Everything was exact. It wasn’t ‘stam’ (happenstance). Everything was exact, with the greatest degree of precision.

Mamash, like it was by the [….], where everything was also done precisely.

That’s how they managed to get six million to ‘ascend’ on the fire.

And now, 1,500 went up on the fire, and 400 soldiers, just to reconquer the kibbutzim from the Hamas.

Here on the blog, we’ve been ‘fleshing out’ the Rav’s copious hints about what is really going on, and who is really behind it.

You can draw your own conclusions.

But one thing I will say, is please, please, please, encourage the soldiers in your dalet amot – especially the reservists, especially the reservists who are fathers and husbands – to STAY OUT OF THE FIGHTING.

All the ‘fighting’ is simply another death trap, designed to kill as many good Jews as possible.

There is no option of ‘winning’ on the table – this is not, and never was about ‘winning’.

====

The good news is, more and more regular people are starting to speak out, and are starting to turn the tide on the brainwashing that has sent so many good Jews to their deaths.

Needlessly.

Yesterday, I was talking to someone up North whose husband has just been called back into the reserves AGAIN, after months serving in Gaza. Now, he’s been sent up North.

And she’s had enough.

There are tens of thousands of women like her – they just need encouragement, that it’s not ‘selfish’ to want their husbands home, and not dead…..

====

And even some of the Hesder Rabbis are starting to write publically, about the terrible, wanton destruction of Jewish soldiers occurring – for NO GAIN, and at the orders of ‘Bro. Biden’.

Read this:

https://did.li/wcXCN (it’s the Srugim website)

Here is a machine translated snippet of some of Rabbi Dr Eliyahu Zini, head of the Hesder Yeshiva in Haifa:

Not only are the complaints coming to me increasing in intensity, but we are witnessing the fall of so many soldiers, fathers of families, wonderful intellectuals and values full of supreme soul devotion, and our concern for prayer can no longer be reduced, and it is a sacred duty of each of us to examine every possible way to end this terrible carnage.

Lest we be told that this is the price that every war demands, this is not true, because the testimonies of so many soldiers suggest [the manner in which] this war is being waged is unforgivably criminal.

==

Already in Sivan, the day after the Sabbath in which ten soldiers lost their lives, I published an article in which I accused the military and political leadership of actual murder. 

It is hard to know who is to blame for this terrible, never-to-be-forgiven bloodshed, whether the entire cabinet is made up of U.S. slaves, or the High Command. (And maybe both?)

==

Responsibility for this terrible bloodshed should have brought any man with the minimum of morality to put down the keys and go – and even be behind bars – but no. 

Not only have they not been held accountable – except for a few words of language and pressure – they still dare to continue to lead the military’s moves. It is doubtful that such a thing will ever be seen in any country in the world.

The cry of these soldiers has been deafening for a long time, and it is growing louder – for they have already seen enough of their comrades fall in vain in the occupation for the fourth and fifth time of what they have conquered at a terrible price of blood. Since the beginning of this war.

====

On Thursday, they are beginning a big PR push, to include the yeshiva students in the carnage, too.

Don’t fall for it.

This is not a holy war, it’s not a war being run by people who are trying to ‘save Jewish lives’.

It’s exactly the opposite.

It’s a ‘war’ that is being planned and conducted by the one-eyed ‘Armilus the Rasha’ – on all sides of it.

====

As well as praying for all the soldiers to come back whole, in soul, mind and body, the other thing you can do is start to make an ‘atmosphere’ where it’s OK, even good, for the reservists to stay home, and to stay alive, and to stick around to see their kids grow up.

That shift happens one person at a time, one conversation at a time.

====

No ‘army’ is going to save us from Armilus the Rasha – especially, not our own.

Chaval, that it should be your son, your husband, your brother, your dad, who gets killed or maimed for absolutely no gain.

We only have God to rely on.

====

The last thing, is that there are still people out there saying ‘it’s a good idea’ for shababnikim – the guys who are falling out of chareidi society, and not learning Torah full time etc – to be shoved in the army.

I totally disagree.

The whole premise is flawed.

The failed State should have switched away from forced conscription to having a standing army of professionals a long, long time ago.

One of the big reasons they didn’t, is because ‘the army’ is a big part of the brainwashing and control apparatus that’s been installed here, to break the Jewish connection to Hashem and His Torah.

====

Even in the Hesder units, even in Nahal Chareidi, even assuming everything is 100% kosher, 100% of the time (which it isn’t….)

There are factors here, concerning how taking another human life profoundly affects the person forced to do that – even when the killing is justified, halachically.

It’s not a simple thing, to destroy another human being.

It has profound spiritual consequences.

It’s not something I would want anyone in my family to ever be in the situation of having to do – not even when it’s 100% mandated by the Torah.

====

I am all for ‘self defense’.

But, prevention is worth so much more than ‘cure’.

‘Prevention’ is prayer, teshuva, charity. Really turning back to God, really asking Him to save us from the terrible situation we are dealing with, here in the failed State.

Killing other people with our own hands has to be the last resort, when we have to save our own lives.

That’s not what is going on here.

====

Tov, that’s enough for one post.

I wasn’t intending to write a big creed today, but on one of the 2 telegram channels I still check, because I can’t help it, there was a story of a man from Karnei Shomron with 10 kids, who just fell in Lebanon.

The heart bleeds for that man, and his wife.

And his 10 orphans.

What was he doing out on the ‘front lines’ in Lebanon?

R Akiva taught us very clearly, your own life takes precedence.

====

May Hashem avenge his blood.

And the blood of all the other Jewish korbanot, being sacrificed on the altar of Armilus.

And you?

Keep your guys out of it, however you can.

Your own life takes precedence.

That’s not ‘selfish’.

It’s Torah.

[1] Of Likutey Halachot, Orach Chaim, Part 3 – written by Rabbi Natan Sternhartz.

[2] See Pele Yoetz, letter zayin, ‘Zugot’ (couples).

[3] In a footnote to this comment in the Shivivei Or Newsletter, the editor explains that in a separate shiur, the Rav spoke about how shlichim from Chabad went around to army bases in the South during Sukkot with arbeh minot to have soldiers shake the lulav, etc, and they found that there were hardly any soldiers on the bases.

Shavua Tov!

Apparently, ‘we bombed Iran’ on Friday night.

Of course, everything in our failed State always has to happen on either Shabbat or a Jewish holiday – that’s one of the ways they constantly take our focus off God and the Torah’s commandments and mitzvot, to have people anxiously on their phones all Shabbat, all chag, ‘checking the news’.

That fake, manipulated masonic news, where we have no idea if anything we’re being told actually happened, or didn’t.

We don’t even know what is really happening here in the failed State – even if we live here, even if we have our two eyeballs open, and our brain still operating above ‘zombie’ capacity and asking awkward questions.

Even like that – we still don’t know what is really going on in our backyard.

I’ve lost count of the number of times I heard ‘on the news’ there was violence going on literally in my back yard – when I myself couldn’t find any trace of it.

====

So, you can believe ‘we bombed Iran’ if you want to.

Maybe ‘we’ did, maybe ‘we’ didn’t.

(Although, there seems to be zero footage of us ‘bombing Iran’ anywhere on social media….. Or anywhere else. And yes, Iranians have smartphones and social media, just like every one else in the world these days (except the hardcore frummers still trying to hang on to their neshamas.)

====

But the point is – it’s all just a big exercise in manipulation and control.

The war is 100% spiritual.

Each time we let them get us agitated, excited, upset, scared, angry etc about ‘the news’, they are actually using that soul energy – our soul energy – to ‘power’ their own agenda.

That’s the whole point.

The more of us ignore ‘the news’, the faster the world of lies crumbles.

====

Even if ‘we’ did bomb Iran – both sides are being controlled by the Evils from the back.

And don’t you think it’s strange that after 25+ years screaming about ‘the nuke’, our dear leaders studiously bombed anything EXCEPT Bushehr?

Even if you take ‘the news’ at face value?

====

We need to keep our focus 100% on Hashem, our day-to-day life, working on our own bad  middot, looking for ways to serve Hashem happily and joyfully, doing more kindnesses and more mitzvot, more real teshuva – and that’s it.

That’s what brings Moshiach, the simple folk who continue to say their tehillim in simplicity, who continue waking up for shacharit and netz, who continue keeping Shabbat, who continue trying to work on their relationship with God, who continue trying to improve their interactions with other people.

Those people bring Moshiach.

And the people who hang on every word of the lying, masonic-controlled ‘news’, and who waste so much of their own, and everyone else’s, time and energy, on non-stop prophecies and predictions, on pointless analyses of the lying news – those people go nuts, and they really don’t ‘bring Moshiach’.

====

I just reread Conversations II, over Shabbat.

Everything a person really needs to know about ‘Operation Swords of Iron’, and what’s going on right now, is in that book.

The Rav said last year already, that we’re in the war of Gog and Magog.

Things are clearly being continually and radically sweetened.

Even though, as the Rav also says in the book, every single day, five and ten more Jews will die, until Moshiach finally comes.

And each one we lose breaks the heart.

But nothing is stam!

Each soul has their own tikkun, their own rectification to do, down here on the planet.

And apparently for a few souls right now, their main rectification is to die al kiddush Hashem.

====

The Rav says clearly in Conversations II, that when a soul dies al kiddush Hashem, they achieve in one second what would otherwise take 1,000 years.

Spiritually, you can’t get a better deal.

====

So.

Personally, I’m at the stage where I don’t believe that ‘nukes’ exist, even though I still believe nuclear fusion is possible, at least, in a nuclear reactor.

You could probably still make a portable ‘dirty bomb’ that would contain some radioactivity – but not a ‘nuke’ in the sense we’ve all been brainwashed into believing.

At this stage, I also don’t believe in ‘inter-continental ballistic missiles’.

We read on Shabbat, God created a firmament.

The Torah is the blueprint of the world, it doesn’t lie about anything.

If it says ‘there is a firmament’ then there is a firmament.

And from everything I’ve been reading, looking at, studying – I haven’t seen any evidence that any rocket is being sent from very far away.

Ever.

Of course in Israel, but also everywhere else in the world.

‘Intercontinental bombing’ is ALWAYS carried out by planes.

As we saw on Friday night.

And that’s why ‘Ukraine’ is the big deal in NATO, because only missiles right on the Russian border (to give one example) could get anywhere near to Russian territory.

====

The people rocketing Israel are the people on our own soil, or very close to it, in the Sea, or very close to our border.

There are no ‘rockets from Yemen’.

There are no ‘missiles from Iran’.

And what missiles and rockets there ARE – are coming either from planes in our own air space, or naval destroyers off our coast.

If they aren’t being launched from within Israel itself, or right on the border.

====

That’s my opinion.

But, feel free to prove me wrong.

Send me the videos, the information, the solid facts, the evidence, and I’m VERY happy to put that up here for everyone to see.

====

In the meantime – I am continuing to ignore the news.

I am carrying on with my own research and writing, and translating the Rav, and working on my own copious bad middot.

But also – on enjoying life as much as possible!

And moving forward in my own dalet amot as much as possible!

And not wasting my precious time and energy on ‘fear’ and endless speculation about what will be.

====

God is doing everything.

And everything God does, is ultimately for our good.

We aren’t in control of anything, except our yirat shemayim, and working on transforming all our ‘fallen fears’ into fear of Hashem.

And boy, do we still have our work cut our for us.

On the surface, it looked like ‘nothing much’ happened yesterday, at least that was ‘bad’.

The Chag here in Jerusalem was celebrated with a lot of joy, a lot of dancing, a lot of simcha – more than I remember in previous years.

The weather was gorgeous, sunny, but breezy.

The Rav came out on time for the hakafot at the Kotel, and it felt way, way ‘lighter’ than the previous year.

I went down to Shuvu on Ido HaNavi for the morning, spent an hour there, even danced a little.

I came back the way I came last Simchat Torah, and sat on a bench in Teddy Park eating a snack.

Last year, I sat under a tree there for 10 minutes, waiting for the sirens to end.

====

My husband got back from the dancing at 2.30pm.

We ate, he slept, I read, did some TKs.

Things felt ‘nicer’ than they have felt for a very long time, BH.

====

Post-chag, we were planning to go to the Rav’s Hakafot HaShneyot – but I couldn’t find out where they were being held this year, or what time they were starting.

In the meantime, one of my kids called me to tell me they were on the way to the site of last year’s ‘Nova Party’, for hakafot hashneyot.

To cut a long story short, we decided to go too.

====

I don’t have WAZE, so I looked it up on a map before we went.

This map, to be precise:

https://oct7map.com/ItzhakLevy

====

Itzik was shot running away or trying to drive down road 232, in the direction of Kibbutz Reim.

I’d never been to that bit of Israel before, and I wanted to orientate myself, before we headed off.

It was pretty quiet in the car on the drive down (possibly, because my husband was worrying I’d drive him into Gaza by mistake, or something. ;-))

We passed Netivot, took the left onto Route 232, drove past Kibbutz Alumim, got past the notorious Kibbutz Be’eri – and then hit a mile-long traffic jam.

Hundreds and hundreds of people, probably a good few thousands altogether over the night, were also driving to the site of the Nova Massacre, to do hakafot hashneyot.

====

I got that weird feeling I sometimes get, when things are bigger, spiritually, than I can really grasp or sometimes understand myself.

Wow, this is such a tikkun (rectification) for what happened on this road a year ago….

When hundreds of people had been dancing around a buddha on Simchat Torah, high off their faces, before getting trapped on that road, and shot like fish in a barrel.

And this year…. the queue to get into the site was happening post-Chag, and was happening to sanctify God’s name.

====

After half an hour, we managed to park in some field, and then we walked another 10 minutes down to the Reim open area that was the site of the Nova party / massacre.

It was pretty surreal, but not creepy.

You walk through dusty tracks to a half-wooded ‘forest’ (or what passes for a forest, in Israel) – the dust was billowing through the air, giving the same effect you get from a smoke machine at gigs.

And in the middle – a mass of dancing Jews, holding a Sefer Torah….. and one guy on someone else’s shoulders, still waving a big flag of Israel.

====

My husband went to join the dancing for half an hour, and I decided to walk around the dancing and to clap a bit, and talk to God.

All over Reim park now, they have memorials set up to the people who were murdered there.

Some of them are mamash permanent, official, State-sponsored, some of them are much more personal and individual.

There was a ‘field’ of laminated pictures of different party-goers on metal rods, driven into the ground where they were killed.

There was the ‘yellow dumpster’ exhibition, where 12 (?) people were hiding until they were found towards the end of the massacre and fired upon. I think four survived.

====

So, I walked around clapping in the half-dark, with the music of the Hakafot playing loudly, reading about the people who were killed at Nova – and how they were killed.

BH, I will go back with a camera in the daylight, and we’ll do that as a whole other post.

Even the ‘official stories’, so whitewashed and so cleaned-up, point the finger of guilt for what happened so clearly and firmly, at our own government and army. The Evils, who are running things at the top.

====

The first 20 minutes, I was actually searching for Itzik.

I knew he’d been killed further down the road, and I was debating whether to try and find his memorial, when I got the thought in my head that it wasn’t necessary to do that.

Itzik isn’t here.

He’s in a much better place, already.

====

On the way out, there was another shorter jam to leave Route 232, where so  much of the killing occurred.

We passed a police car blocking the entrance into Route 232, so no-one else could join the Hakafot.

Just like on that fateful day, where ‘the police’ barred the exits to Route 232 to fleeing partygoers, many of whom were forced back into the Nova site – where they were killed like fish in a barrel.

That wasn’t an accident, or an oversight.

That was the plan, all along.

====

Rav Berland explained all this clearly, back in November 2023.

Take a look at this post:

THE SUPERNOVA PARTY WAS A DEATH TRAP

Snippet of what the Rav said:

The whole point [of the party] was – let’s state this firmly – was that as many young people as possible dafka from dati families should come,and we’ll ‘get happy’ with them, and we’ll dance with them, and we’ll ‘make them happy’.

For this is the ikker (main point) to semachta be’hagecha.

They said there was going to be such great ‘happiness’!

Such a festival that has never been since the founding of the State!

And this was a blow to the religious – and they said this explicitly.

That all the kids would come, and from all the religious homes they would come [to the party] – and they would take the children from all the religious families.

==

[The Super Nova party] was a death trap.

This – the Satan did this. And it was a death trap.

The Torah says to dance [on Simchat Torah] with Sifrei Torah, not with vodka.

I don’t have ‘vodka’ written by me, by me, it’s written ‘to dance with Sifrei Torah’ in my Shulchan Aruch.

By them, it was written ‘to dance with vodka’.

====

Deep sigh.

But yesterday, all that got rectified.

It was the tipping point, spiritually, you could feel it in the air.

Sure, there was still three people with three Israeli flags – but for that mostly dati leumi crowd, three flags is actually nothing.

The last idol is crumbling before our eyes, and it can’t come fast enough.

====

Over Simchat Torah this year, walking back from the Rav, there was the strong feeling that ‘the Evils’ will be gone by the end of this coming year, permanently.

Not just the puppets, that are called ‘Hamas’ and ‘Hezbollah’, but also all the other people in the chain of evil, including the middle men paying over all those suitcases of cash and releasing murderous terrorists endlessly, to carry on murdering Jews in cold blood.

While we tell ourselves bubbe meises that someone is a ‘tzaddik’ just because they got a blessing from the Lubavitcher Rebbe…

====

Let’s end with this.

Over the Chag, FOUR Major Generals were killed in ‘operations’ in Gaza.

This screenshot is from the Daniel Amram Telegram:

====

Major General is a fairly high rank in the IDF.

HERE is a website that lists the ranks in order.

This are all ‘ALUF-im’.

How is it possible that four ALUF-im were lost in one mission in Lebanon?

====

UPDATE:

There are other reports they aren’t all major generals. It’s possible something got ‘lost in translation’ with the screenshot. But five Jewish souls dead like this – effectively for nothing – still makes the heart break, regardless of their rank.

====

You can carry on thinking that ‘Hamas’ and ‘Hezbollah’ are the real enemies we are fighting.

The heart bleeds for the families of these brave, but misguided, beautiful Jews, who still haven’t grasped who the real enemy is.

BH, may these be the last korbanot required from us, before the Evils finally fall for good.

But make no mistake: the Evils are living on borrowed time.

And 5785 is the year God finally gives them what they so richly deserve.

This morning, shortly before dawn, I had a dream.

***UPDATE – PRAYER FROM THE RAV TO OVERCOME FEAR***

In the dream, Itzik HaKadosh visited me, and told me everything was going to be OK – even though I’m honestly feeling very apprehensive today, like the whole rest of Israel.

====

I wrote about Itzik HaKadosh exactly a year ago, on October 22nd, 2023.

HERE is that post, written a couple of weeks after he’d been murdered at the Nova Party on October 7th, 2023.

I wanted to put the video of him speaking here, but for some reason, my blog isn’t letting me. It could be, it’s not kavod for Itzik now, to show him how he was a year ago.

====

In the dream, Itzik said he’s in a very good place.

He also stressed how very important it is to do kindnesses for other people – that this is really the measure of a person, how many kindnesses they do for someone else.

Because not everyone has money for tzedaka, or to do pidyonot, but everyone has the ability to do kindnesses for others, all the time.

And those kindnesses ‘speak’ for a person, and act as spiritual defenders for them, in times of trouble.

====

In the dream, Itzik said he can’t tell me what’s going to be, except that very soon, it’s going to be very good here in Israel.

I got the impression there is a ‘narrow bridge’ we have to all cross over before that happens, but it was good to have the reassurance that whatever it looks like short term, very soon, it’s going to be good.

====

This morning, it took me ages to get out of bed.

My husband came up at 9.30, to tease me about having a ‘duvet day’. I had no idea what he was talking about – I thought it was still around 7am.

Apparently, my clock lost two hours in the middle of the night.

====

I was in two minds whether to write about the dream today.

But then, two things happened.

First, I saw that thousands of people showed up to the Nova Plaza today, to hold the Hoshana Rabba prayers there before dawn:

This is the same time I had the dream about Itzik this morning.

Those prayers at the Nova site this morning must have done some very big things, spiritually, to help the souls of the people who were murdered there last year.

====

And the second, smaller thing is when I came back to check when I wrote that last post, and realised that it was exactly a year ago, on the secular calendar.

And of course, it’s exactly a year ago that Itzik died, according to the Jewish calendar, which this year had an extra month for the leap year.

====

Tonight, the Rav is going to the Kotel for Simchat Torah, same as last year.

I am having quite a lot of deja vu / PTSD today.

I don’t know if I’m scared and anxious because I’m being ‘flashed back’ into what happened last Simchat Torah, or scared and anxious because I’m worrying about what’s on the cards for this Simchat Torah.

Probably, it’s both.

====

The Shuvu Banim prayers will begin at 8.30 pm tonight, down by the Kotel, and everyone is welcome to join.

My friend just sent me this picture of the Rav, I think from this morning, holding the lulav and etrog for the last time this year:

====

She accompanied it with this:

I think we have reached the tipping point.
Something is bound to happen tonight / tomorrow
====
Whatever the ‘something’ is – and there are so many ‘somethings’ going on at the moment in Eretz Yisrael, that this is not navua, but simply a statement of probabilities – I share her prayer, and Itzik’s message, that very soon, things are going to be good again in Eretz Yisrael.

BH, may we all be signed in the book of life this year, 5785.

And may we only hear good news.
====

UPDATE:

The strange story takes an even stranger twist.

After I typed this up, this morning, I went out to get a yahrtzeit candle to light for Itzik HaKadosh.

I lit the candle for him on the candle shelf in my kitchen, turned around – and that’s when I saw this prayer lying in the middle of the floor of my kitchen:

It wasn’t there before I lit the candle, and I have never seen this prayer before, even though my house is full of the Rav’s prayers.

It’s half-laminated, and the Rav’s prayers I usually have are printed on different paper.
I have no idea where it came from.
====

I’ll translate it for English speakers at the bottom of the post – it’s a prayer to merit to overcome fear.

And look who it’s in the zchut of, the ilui neshama of, at the bottom:

YITZHAK CHAIM

====

There is a bunch of weird stuff happening today, at least in my dalet amot.

But print this prayer out, and send it along to people.
The Rav said a long time ago, that any house that has one of his prayers in it has extra protection.
And this is a good one to have – and to say – right now.
====

ENGLISH TRANSLATION:

To merit to overcome all the fears

Ribonu shel olam, help me to not be scared at all, and to know that the ‘fear’ doesn’t make [a person] scared.

It’s just a thought that lacks the emuna and bitachon that everything that happens is done by Him [i.e. Hashem].

‘Fear’ is the ‘father’ of all the progenitors of tumah.

It drives away from me all the complete bitachon (trust) in You, [that You] will totally do Your Will.

[I] want to believe that everything that You do, it’s for the good.

Strengthen me, Abba, like a lion, to overcome all the fallen feelings and the thoughts, and to raise up the yirah (fear / awe) to its root, of only fearing and being in awe of You, the Doer of great wonders.

Assist me to strengthen my soul, to overcome all the worries and apprehensions, and that I should always merit to thank You.
