The biggest Holocaust ever, is taking place in Israel by the Israeli leftist, chilonim, etc. Their fake Concerns about the Hostages?, only to take down the BIBI Government!

PS -Stop the Abortions, you'll have 30,000 soldiers annually, without the Chareidim at all.

Note: In the army, it's 100% abortions!

 Given Data:

  • Jewish births (mostly by the frum) in Israel in 2021: Approximately 135,639
  • Legal abortions in Israel (mostly by chilonim) in 2021: Approximately 16,508 (99.5% of 16,591)
  • Estimated illegal abortions in Israel: Approximately 15,000
  • Arabs don't allow abortions

Total Abortions (Legal + Illegal):

16,508+15,000=31,508

Ratio of Jewish Births to Total Abortions:

Ratio=Jewish births Total abortions=135,63931,5084.3\text{Ratio} = \frac{\text{Jewish births}}{\text{Total abortions}} = \frac{135,639}{31,508} \approx 4.3

Percentage of Abortions Compared to Jewish Births:

To calculate the percentage of abortions relative to Jewish births:

Percentage=(Total abortions Jewish births)×100=(31,508135,639)×10023.2%\text{Percentage} = \left(\frac{\text{Total abortions}}{\text{Jewish births}}\right) \times 100 = \left(\frac{31,508}{135,639}\right) \times 100 \approx 23.2\%

Final Results:

  • There are approximately 4.3 Jewish births from the Frum for every abortion (legal and illegal) mostly from the Chilonim.
  • Abortions account for approximately 23.2% of Jewish births in Israel.

Others are looking to put together Chaburos for Matzos at East Kennedy Bobov Bakery, we observed many bakeries, and we think that East Kennedy Bobov ranks above

 AT BOBOV IT WAS CHECKED WITH A MOISTURE METER, 18%-+ as a DOUGH, 1-2% right OUT OF THE OVEN, NOBODY COMES CLOSE TO THAT- GET YOUR REJECTORS AWAY FROM THE OVEN- ABOUT TIME, uNLESS YOU WANT TO WEAR AN APRON AND LOOK LIKE A ROSH YESHIVA AT MATZO BAKING-IT WON'T GET YOU A SHTELLAR.

Chaburah Hand Matzos some pointers

  Chaburah Matzos 5785

1-      Room cleaned out completely from any dough pieces, flour dust etc. “a chometz free environment”.

2-      Only Yoshon wheat [sometimes they add spring wheat to add gluten]. More whole wheat in mix, less water. Note: a dry crumbly dough could handle a hot oven 1000F +. The dough must be worked out very well to become very pliable, so the velgerers can easily roll out a thin large matzo. We’ll use the flour with added “Rozoveh” that works best with the least amount of water. 40% water ratio to flour

3-      Without Finners, it’s very hard to work out the dough be very pliable, unless they use more water which causes many other problems.

4-      Another Finner table, so the finning will be longer and a more pliable dough. The knetter & Finner are the first ones finished by the 18-minute break, so they should start earlier, same in the morning at first “ma’irah”. All finning tables to be used, smaller mairos. Too often matzo dough piles up by the reddler table- corrective solution needs to be implemented??

5-      Change bowl & gloves between every mayrah-even first 3.

6-      Change water cup every time. (the one that pours water into flour) as it may splash flour onto the cup.

7-      Plastic sleeve on vacuum, by the “knetter”.

8-      Finning tables & finning bars should be wiped with a dry towel in between every dough. [by a chabura person]

9-      By the finning-always go down to bottom with the finner bar, to prevent folds, hand roll into a log.

10-   The aluminum dough divider, must be changed after every dough, wiped clean (not over table) & checked.

11-   They should be cut equal size.

12-   We’ll have people to work the dough pieces after it’s cut.

13-   The edges should be the same thickness as the rest not a thicker rim.

14-   Matzo dough should have a moisture percentage of 18% +-

15-   Rolling pins should not be kept under the arm. Rolling pins should not leave room.

16-   Sufficient number of sticks that take the matzos to the oven, so we don’t have to reuse any during the 18 minutes.

17-   Burn out the redlers & the bowls the night before or that morning early.

18-   Reddler paper to move a bit quicker.

19-   No waiting at the redling table, straight into oven -1-2 or 3 matzos- prefer sets of 2 matzos at a time, there will be less burned ones

20-   9-10- to the pound

21-   Even steel will b end when hot, therefore if the matzo bends does not necessarily mean it’s not baked well, chech the moisture percentage if it’s in the range of 2%, it’s fully baked.

22-   If need be, lower the oven temp, unless water or other adjustments can be made. [water 40% +-]

23-   No matzo is to be moved around from place to place in the oven; once it’s picked up it should be removed completely.

24-   The matzo shouldn’t be kept at the oven door after baking, to dry out.

25-   Clean boards by oven to put matzos on when removing from oven.

26-   Reddler table should be moved further from oven room door, if need be.

27-   No outsiders at any time during our baking time. No room & it’s a shter to the chaburah.

28-   We can check at packing for burnt matzos, kefulos & remove them.

29-   Silica gel packs supplied by customer, to be put into each box inside the plastic bag.

NOTE: I eat in KCL establishments, can I eat in various food establishments in the tri-State area

Then you can eat in the other establishments provided that you do not use any items that require Bedikas toloyim or cholv stam/akum which is actually cholov treif.

We were given this to post,-Teves 5785 To the Rabbonim of the Beis HaVaad. [Note: we'll fix up the hebrew iy"h next week]

Teves 5785 To the Rabbonim of the Beis HaVaad. 

I am reaching out once again to express my deepest concerns over recent events surrounding the heter-nisuin of a kohein and giyores, and its aftermath. It has been about nine months since my previous letter.

1 During this time, the tumult surrounding the saga of the heter-nesuin, given and then officially retracted by a Beis Din of the Beis HaVaad, had mostly quieted down, at least in the public sphere. 

What remained in its place was the sad chillul Hashem of a heter given without any reality-based explanation to support it, leaving the public with the perception that the heter was given only because its recipient was wealthy enough to pay for it. Recently this saga returned to the public sphere with the release of Rav Gorelick’s kunteres, “Kesser Kehuna” volume one, which traces the kehuna of the Laskin family, making them, ironically, from the best documented kehuna families in Klal Yisrael today. 

 This kunteres also introduces us to a letter, written in Russian and dated September 10, 1915, which the Beis Din recently produced in an attempt to justify the doubt cast on the kehuna of the Laskin family. This letter seems to have been written by the Laskin’s great grandfather Avraham Lashinsky, and happens to mention details about Avraham Lashinsky’s life, which would force us to conclude that the Laskin’s great grandfather Avraham Lashinsky, is actually not the person whose kever in queens says “Avraham Yitzchak HaKohein Lashinsky,” but rather a different person with an amazingly similar life. The issue with this letter is that it’s a forgery. 

Rav Gorelick demonstrates this clearly in his kunteres, and includes letters from several additional Rabbonim who call out this forgery as well. After the release of Rav Gorelick’s kunteres, the mood of the many yungerleit who have been paying attention to the developments of this saga, became cautiously optimistic. Surely now, the Beis Din would respond with something of substance. Perhaps they would explain the basis of their heter, or alternatively, perhaps the Beis Din would explain that they paskened only based on information presented to them, and now that their information has turned out to be inaccurate or unreliable the psak is withdrawn…

 Regrettably, the Beis Din chose instead to release a compilation of letters insisting that their psak is valid, claiming support from well-known Rabbonim, and threatening divine punishment to those who question the authenticity of an unexplained heter allowing a wealthy kohein to marry a giyores. What was missing from these letters was the one thing desperately needed - a reality-based explanation of why this marriage is permitted. Not only did these letters fail to reassure us that an explanation for the heter actually exists, but they also actually had the opposite effect, as several of the statements made in these letters were quite alarming, exasperating concerns over Beis HaVaad’s credibility and integrity instead of quieting them.

Takanah Weddings

 A Takanah Wedding, with additional guidelines for eliminating certain customs like a Vort and simplifying Sheva Brachos, emphasizes modesty, affordability, and spiritual focus. These adjustments are often instituted by Rabbinic or communal leadership to create a framework for weddings that aligns with Torah values and avoids unnecessary financial or social pressure.

Enhanced Guidelines for a Takanah Wedding:

  1. Eliminating the Vort:
    • No Engagement Party: The traditional Vort (engagement party) is omitted entirely, saving families from the expense of hosting an additional event.
    • Instead, a simple l’chaim may be held with immediate family and close friends to celebrate the engagement privately.
  2. Simplified Sheva Brachot:
    • Small Gatherings: Sheva Brachos meals during the week are limited to intimate gatherings with close family and friends.
    • Home-Based Meals: Often hosted in private homes rather than rented halls, with simple, home-cooked meals or modest catering.
    • Shabbos Sheva Brachos: A primary focus is placed on celebrating Sheva Brachos during Shabbos, often incorporated into the Shabbos meals. This allows for a more communal and spiritual atmosphere without added expense.
    • Avoidance of large-scale or extravagant Sheva Brachos events.
  3. Core Features of the Wedding:
    • Guest List: Limited to close family and friends to keep the event meaningful and affordable.
    • Catering: A simple menu is provided for the wedding meal, with fewer courses or simpler options.
    • Music: A small or one-piece band suffices, ensuring a lively yet modest celebration.
  4. Purpose of These Changes:
    • Financial Relief: Eliminating the Vort and simplifying Sheva Brachos reduces financial burdens on families.
    • Minimizing Pressure: Helps avoid social competition over engagement parties or elaborate post-wedding celebrations.
    • Focus on Kedusha: Keeps attention on the sanctity of the wedding day, the chuppah, and the mitzvah of building a Jewish home.

By implementing these practices, Takanah Weddings foster an atmosphere where the focus remains on Torah values and the joy of the couple without unnecessary materialism. These changes ensure that families can celebrate without undue stress while maintaining dignity and joy.

Wig Alert: The Hashgocha of chanichei yeshivas, Rav Gross, Avrohom Schlesinger



According to Rav Moshe Shternbuch and other Dayonim,

DO NOT RELY ON THE HASHGOCHA on wigs/ sheitels It's a bluff, just taking money.
IT'S A FRAUD, to say it mildly.

באתי להציע בזה על גבי הכתב בס"ד, בירור דברים שעלה בידינו בעניין ה'הכשר' המדומה על מקור השערות המשמשות לפיאות נכריות, וידוע מה שכתב מרן פוסק הדור הגר"מ שטרנבוך שליט"א בתשובות והנהגות ח"ה סי' רס"ה אודות ההכשר שאין לסמוך עליו, ולאחרונה עורר על כך מרן שליט"א בקצרה בדרשת שבת הגדול שההכשר רפוי, והנה מתוך העיסוק בעניין, עלה בידינו ממצאים רבים – וכל הנכתב כאן מוקלט ומגובה במסמכים, [ובכל מקום שנכתב איזה עניין בשם אחרים, הכוונה שיש תחת ידינו הקלטה מזה, אלא שלא טרחנו לחזור ולכתוב כן בכל מקום], וכתבתי בקצרה, וגם ישנם כמה עניינים שלא הספקתי כעת לכתוב, אך באמת אין צורך בזה באריכות, כי הרואה יראה מיד מהו ערכו של הכשר כזה שהסוחרים עצמם שמקבלים הכשרות לועגים על ההכשר ואומרים שההכשר אינו מונע מהם מלייבא שער הודי, ואי"ה עוד חזון למועד להרחיב הדברים ולבארם עוד.
וזה החלי בע"ה, התמקדתי בעיקר בעשרה נושאים מורחבים, ובתוך כל נושא העניין מתפצל לכמה וכמה עניינים, וכאשר תחזינה עיניכם מישרים.
ובנותן טעם להקדים תחילה מה שאמר לי אחד הסוחרים מארה"ב המקבלים השגחה: "רבאי שלזינגר לא יודע בדיוק מה שקורה, מי שרוצה לחטוא בוודאי יכול לחטוא, אם זה היה בשר אני לא הייתי אוכל, אני סומך על הקב"ה, אני מסתמך גם על הגוי בסין שלא יכשיל אותי".
וזהו דוגמא אחת מיני אלף, ואידך זיל גמור.
א] יוצא ונכנס
1- מידת היוצא ונכנס במדינת סין: [המפעלים בסין שמקבלים השגחה, כוללים גם מפעלים ל'סקין', וגם מפעלים בסין שמייצרים את הפיאות ומוכרים פיאות מוכנות, וכפי ששמענו מהסוחרים העומדים תחת ההשגחה].

Alert: Prioritizing Safety in Lakewood's and Central Jersey's Changing Landscape

Numerous episodes have been happening at the local restaurants, inappropiate language, inappropiate touching, the rest one can figure out.

Alert: Prioritizing Safety in Lakewood's Changing Landscape

Over the past few years, Lakewood has undergone significant changes—shifts that may not align with the original vision of Reb Ahron and Reb Shnuer, Z"L.

Some concerning incidents have occurred in various establishments. While we won’t delve into specifics at this time, it’s clear that vigilance is essential.

Our Recommendation:

Always ensure accompaniment for safety and guidance—whether as an individual or part of a group. Having someone alongside you provides protection, support, and peace of mind as you navigate these changes.

Stay safe and make mindful choices to uphold the integrity and spirit of our cherished community.

The Hashgocha says as long there aren't constant violations of kashrus and their fees to the Hashgocha are timely, that is our only responsibility.  





Important Kashrus Alert: Food Service Establishments in the Monsey Area

Important Kashrus Alert: Food Service Establishments in the Monsey Area

We have received numerous inquiries regarding kashrus standards in food service establishments throughout the Monsey area. This topic has been the subject of much discussion, and unfortunately, there has been significant activity from self-proclaimed "wannabes" in the kashrus field.

Currently, there are two overlapping organizations claiming to provide information and oversight, whose emblems are often displayed prominently. Additionally, CHAMA (Chevra Mivakshei HaKashrus) is another entity in the area, which also provides mashgichim for establishments.

Having been involved in the food service kashrus field for nearly 50 years, we have been fortunate to have Siyata Di’Shmaya in uncovering serious issues in numerous establishments. Based on our extensive experience, we must issue the following guidance:

Bottom Line:

As of Chanukah 5758, we cannot recommend relying on these organizations for kashrus certification. Instead, the reliability of a food service establishment often depends on the owner, manager, and mashgiach. If these individuals are known to be truly yir’ei shamayim (G-d-fearing), there may be more reason to trust the establishment. However, this requires careful discernment. Tjhese Organizations are actually a מכשיל את הרבים, ר"ל

To ensure your safety and adherence to proper kashrus:

  • Bring your own food whenever possible.
  • Avoid consuming vegetables from food service establishments that require bedikas toloyim (checking for insects), as this is often mishandled.

We urge the community to exercise caution and prioritize the highest standards of kashrus in all food-related decisions.

Synopsis: Ninth Circuit Rules on Ministerial Exception in Kosher-Certification Dispute

The Ninth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that the ministerial exception applies to the Union of Orthodox Jewish Congregations of America (OU) in a lawsuit filed by Yaakov Markel, a mashgiach (kosher supervisor). Markel alleged unpaid overtime and unmet promises of promotion and wage increases, arguing that the claims involved secular matters.

Circuit Judge Ryan D. Nelson, writing for the majority, affirmed the lower court's decision that the OU is a religious institution, and the role of a mashgiach qualifies as ministerial. The court held that the ministerial exception, grounded in the First Amendment, bars Markel’s claims, as his work was essential to OU’s religious mission of kosher certification. The court emphasized that delineating religious and secular decisions within religious institutions could lead to unconstitutional entanglement between church and state.

The ruling also extended the ministerial exception to protect individual defendants, such as Rabbi Nachum Rabinowitz, from employment-related claims brought by ministerial employees. Circuit Judge Gabriel P. Sanchez concurred with the outcome but disagreed that the exception could apply to purely secular disputes.

The case underscores the constitutional principle that religious institutions’ decisions, even if appearing secular, are often intertwined with religious doctrine and are thus shielded from judicial interference under the ministerial exception. The decision is significant in defining the scope of the ministerial exception within religious organizations providing services for profit.

UPDATE: A little knowledge in kashrus can be very dangerous! Due to infeststion, one may NOT use J&R produce at all!כסלו 5758

 UPDATE: THE ONLY BRAND THAT IS CONSISTENTLY FREE OF INFESTATION IS POS'TIV  & KOSHER GARDEN ( Blossom w/CRC Hisachdus only- without any other heimish hashgocha) Many heimishe hashgochas have an agenda against Pos'tiv product, therefore they prefer the infested brands.
This J&R infested product was found this week-כסלו 5785
   


Matzav.com has received an advisory from the Va’ad HaKashrus of the Five Towns and Far Rockaway, which is guided by Rav Yosef Eisen, claims to be an expert in insect infestation. (Factually, he isn't an expert in infestation)
The Vaad advises that there is a report of very high infestation in fresh red cabbage. Small white insects can only be detected if the cabbage is opened on top of a light box. This is extremely tedious and impractical.

The following sources are acceptable to be used: Pos'tiv Cabbage, Romaine, lettuce and all other of their items

Red cabbage from whole heads may not be used until the end of August. END of article
Note: The bugs don't know when August ends, nor can they read "insect-free"

(Even though it may be on sale)





DE JA VU- Another kosher certifier recently removed their Hashgocha as the Mashgiach was playing games


 What I don’t understand is why Tornopol allows this company to still be used in his establishments. He dropped and then bad mouthed them but still allows them to be used. Sounds like more to the story than..

Coaching Vs Therapists

https://www.noomii.com/article/coaching-vs-therapy

Coaching vs. Therapy

A common misconception is that coaching is the same as therapy, when in fact they are quite different. Therapy is intended to help people recover from emotional or other psychological disorders such as depression or anxiety. Coaching, on the other hand, is intended to help normal, healthy individuals achieve personal goals such as increased happiness, weight loss, improved work-life balance. etc.

The table below shows a quick side-by-side comparison of coaching vs. therapy

Coaching and Therapy


Coaching Therapy
Client is emotionally and psychologically healthy Client is emotionally unwell and in needs healing
Focuses on the present and future Focuses on dealing with the past
Driven by goals and taking action Driven by unresolved issues and feelings
Works toward a higher level of functioning Works to achieve understanding and emotional healing
Results-based and focuses on exploring solutions Explores the root of problems and offers explanation
Asks, “Where would you like to be and how can you get there?” Asks, “How did that make you feel?”
Acts on information Absorbs information
Done over the phone, internet or in person Done in an office setting
Coach and client collaborate on solutions Therapist is the ‘expert’
Contact between sessions expected (accountability and wins) Contact between sessions for crisis and difficulties only

Update: Re: שלום בית issues: Lakewood "therapists & Mentors" are רודפים

Lakewood "Therapists & Mentors" just broke another family!!
Protect our children?

Don't push "Ritalin" on them like lollipops.
Ritalin? sure! so the School administrators can provide paying clients to their therapists.


Don't let Therapist [Terrorists](backed by Rabbonim) to break apart families. [Their success rate in at 99%]
Don't let the Rabbonim and therapists run for restraining orders against their husbands, who happens to be the father of her children.
She is throwing her children to the dogs. That's what revenge is.

Don't work in unison to support financially the therapists, by sending the parents, the children, etc. to therapy.

That's perhaps why children lost their respect for Rabbonim!

Don't allow the מקוה to break families. Terrorists & Rabbonim do it constantly R"L

מקוה schedules in WG are by pay-for-play? 
Get rid of the ones in charge, from the Rabbonim down. Get rid of the corruption in WG.
Don't play dumb.

Lakewood שלום בית-Therapists (terrorists) are not the solution, they are the root of the problem!


Advice on Responding to a Restraining Order


Unfortunately many women are receiving bad advice from therapists, attorneys and Pseudo Rabbonim who know nothing about Halachah. Their only interest is to pander their client and keep them satisfied. They will never advise their client to do the proper thing according to Halacha, when the client will not be happy with this advice. 
               The result has been a large increase in the issuance of RO’s to Yeshiva Leit. The proper response is to go to Bais Din and request that they commence proceedings to render the sender of the RO a מורדת. If the Bais Din sees that there is no justification for the RO and the issuer does not retract they will commence with the proceedings. The details of what Bais Din has to do are described in Even HaEzer Siman 77. 
As more women get declared a מורדת the reputation of the advisors will deteriorate since we can now quantify that they are giving bad advice and it is producing negative consequences to their clients.

A second benefit is that after the proceedings are finalized there are financial advantages such as no KESUBAH (see Siman 77 for more details)

A third benefit is after 12 months you can give a GET on your terms, and remarry according to most Poskim without a HETER MEIOH RABBONUM if she refuses to accept the GET (see Siman 77 for more details).

A fourth benefit is public relations “He left her because she was a מורדת sounds better than “she threw him out”.
I hope and encourage anyone who has received a RO to go forward with this advice and may הקב"ה give you ס"ד to end these issues with Shalom.

http://hefkervelt.blogspot.com/2015/11/the-rishus-continues-when-will-it-end.html

The Lakewood therapists, etc and their Rabonim etc ( a mafia style) are the group responsible for shalom Bayis issues, separations, divorces, breaking up families, etc.

We have been monitoring the methods and results of these so called therapists, etc for the past  few years.

It's not as bad as you think, it's much worse!. 

"Rishus" is too mild of a description.

Guest comment. [Hefker velt]

http://hefkervelt.blogspot.com/2015/12/hefker-velt.html#comment-form

Its a Hefker velt, thats exactly how to describe what goes on when dealing with the sensitive issue of shalom bayis and  R'L divorce. There is no responsible system set up, no trusted agency al pi Torah and halacha. 

No communal standard that everyone adheres to, or even a bes din to turn to. Its unfortunate that so many homes are shattered as a result of total incompetence, inexperience in dealing with the issues and problems of shalom bayis. 
Its a Hefkervelt when any Askan, therapist, social worker or Rav, can do what they want with no accountability for their actions. They get away with it time and time again. There is no mirsas, no fear, no repercussions its do what ever you please. They dont have to answer up to anybody. 
Take one side of a story, give bad advice, dont do basic homework or due diligence its only nefashos were dealing with. So what if you have no experience in shalom bayis issues, who says you cant take it on all by yourself? no one is stopping you. No guidelines set in place making sure all
