TOUSI: Interview Speech of a Member of the Iranian Revolution to Pres Trump and PM Netanyahu
Listen to the very telling interview with a member of the Revolution:
Rabbi Weissman.......Handbook for Diaspora Jews
The Anti-Semitism Handbook for Diaspora Jews
Plus Trump prepares for the next pandemic, and a fun fact about the Jewish Press
Last week’s Torah class, The Seven Qualities of Judges, is embedded above and on Rumble here.
The classes are now Thursday nights at 8 PM Israel time. The link to join the live classes is here.
Listen, just because someone partied with Epstein and company and brought those shots at warp speed (he just listened to the wrong people…) doesn’t mean he can’t still be the messiah.
Trump Finances the Next Pandemic with $5.5 Billion Tax Dollars, Signs HR 7148 Into Law JonFleetwood.com
Congress has enacted legislation allocating at least $5.5 billion in taxpayer funding to finance pandemic and outbreak preparedness in fiscal year 2026—despite no declared pandemic and no formal emergency authorization…Read more
In part: “...to pay for the transportation, medical care, treatment, and other related costs of persons quarantined or isolated under Federal or State quarantine law.”
I’m sure it’s nothing.
Fun fact: The Jewish Press was started by my great-uncle, Rav Simcha Weissman zt”l.
Rav Avigdor Miller mentions him here, fondly remembering the days of the paper’s “idealism” before it became, in Rav Miller’s words, a “rag” and “the mouthpiece of Orthodox Jewry from the other end”.
I also found a really nice article about my great-uncle here in honor of his first yahrtzeit, in 2006. He was a great man, but unfortunately I barely knew him.
The following article of mine was published on Nov 1, 2019 in the Jewish Press, which I ceased writing for after they sold out during Covid, along with all the other garbage media. Long gone are the days of authentic, idealistic, uncorrupted Jewish media.
I hope my great-uncle is keeping up with my work in Shamayim and is proud.
The Anti-Semitism Handbook for Diaspora Jews
The continuous rise of anti-Semitic incidents has taken world Jewry by surprise. The nations of the world were supposed to know better and Germany said they’re sorry.
Yet try as they do to be loved, Jews continue to be hated more than any other population, regardless of what “type” of Jew they are. Wealthy Jews are hated for having too much money, poor Jews are hated for being dirty Jews. Powerful Jews are hated for controlling the world, weak Jews are hated for being pathetic.
Religious Jews are hated for being different, assimilated Jews are hated for being impostors.
Surely this is just a passing phase as it’s always been, and Jews shouldn’t do anything radical, like returning to their motherland en masse. To help Diaspora Jews respond properly to anti-Semitic incidents of various types, the Jewish Union for Diaspora Eternal (JUDE) has prepared a handbook. This handbook is the product of extensive research, countless meetings, and millions of dollars in operating expenses. (Please donate generously so our vital work can continue.)
Each section of the handbook lists various levels of anti-Semitic behavior, followed by the appropriate responses. Thanks to our helpful guide, Diaspora Jewry need no longer be confused when faced with the challenges of anti-Semitism, nor overreact and risk making the situation worse. We’ve had a great run for thousands of years in the Diaspora, and with G–D’s help this will continue. We at JUDE are confident that the best is yet to come.
Stage 1 Anti-Semitism:
- Dirty looks, insults, slurs, assorted other verbal abuse
- Spitting, throwing pennies, assorted other non-physical signs of contempt
- Accusing Israel of racism, war crimes, etc.
Appropriate Responses:
- So what?
- We’re in galus, it’s normal
- It’s good to be reminded that we’re Jews
- We have to fight hate with love
- They don’t really mean it
- It’s just kids being kids
- It’s fair to criticize Israel
- We have to work harder to educate people and reach out to our neighbors
Stage 2 Anti-Semitism:
- Vandalism of Jewish homes, synagogues, and institutions
- Swastikas
- Desecration of cemeteries
- Jews being knocked down, harassed, lightly assaulted in the street
Appropriate Responses:
- The police will investigate
- Increase patrols and install security cameras
- Probably a prank by kids
- The person was probably drunk or mentally ill

- Bias in the media
- Anti-Semitic cartoons
- Anti-Semitic statements from public officials
- Legal discrimination to keep Jews out (zoning laws, etc.)

Appropriate Responses:
- Prove that the Holocaust really did happen
- They don’t really mean what they are saying
- Arrange educational events and visits to Holocaust museums
- Write letters, use social media to inform and educate
- Invite the offenders to meet with us and build bridges
- It’s not like Germany in 1932, it’s completely different
- Use our political influence, work with leaders
- They don’t hate us, they just don’t understand
Stage 4 Anti-Semitism:
- Attacks on synagogues and Jewish institutions
- Serious beatings
- Children being bullied in school, with no serious consequences
- Fear of being recognizably Jewish

- Increase security
- Train citizens in self-defense
- Train citizens on how to survive shootings
- Urge politicians to speak out
- Express shock, every single time, and insist we won’t let it happen again
- It only happens in some areas, isolated incidents, blown out of proportion
Stage 5 Anti-Semitism:

- Confiscation of Jewish property
- Show trials
- Mass incarcerations
- Destruction of synagogues and Jewish institutions
Appropriate Responses:
- It will blow over

- Don’t fight, keep a low profile
Stage 6 Anti-Semitism:
