The Warning of Pittsburgh: The Kristalnacht Experience in America – Soon Coming to the Jews in Europe and Elsewhere
Leading Netherlands Rabbi:
Pittsburgh Can Occur in *our Country
Pittsburgh Can Occur in *our Country
Rabbi Binyamin Jacobs, Chief Rabbi at the Inter-Provincial Chief Rabbinate of the Netherlands, discusses the situation in the Netherlands.
Arutz Sheva spoke with Rabbi Binyamin Jacobs, Chief Rabbi at the Inter-Provincial Chief Rabbinate of the Netherlands, at the European Jewish Assocation (EJA) annual conference in Brussels.
Rabbi Jacobs participated in the panel titled "The freedom of religion in Europe – the Netherlands as a snapshot".
The situation in the Netherlands these days is not “dangerous”, he said, but rather “difficult”. The reason for this is growing anti-Semitism.
“When I came 43 years ago to Holland, no one would ever think about calling me ‘dirty Jew’. Today it’s normal. 40 years ago it was unthinkable that Jewish schools would need to have police and soldiers outside. Every Jewish place has police, there’s always protection. They’re not doing it for nothing. The government understands and recognizes [there’s anti-Semitism],” said Rabbi Jacobs.
“When an attack occurs like in America in Pittsburgh, everyone wakes up. Thank God this has not yet happened in Holland,” he added, acknowledging that such an attack “is very possible. Nobody wants it but the police is not protecting us for nothing.”
“I believe that we should not be in panic. I myself am not scared. On the other hand we should be aware there is a dangerous situation,” said Rabbi Jacobs.

Amsterdam: BDS Rally Glorifies Terror
at Nazi Victim Monument
City officials called to explain, after BDS rally featuring song about suicide bomber in Tel Aviv takes place at memorial for Nazi victims.

That day, the action, which is usually limited to a handful activists, saw new participants, mostly Arab men but also Europeans and several women. Organizers played from loudspeakers a song by the rapper Ismo, who has featured anti-Semitic content in his songs. In a 2014 song, he said “I hate Jews more than the Nazis.” Titled “Free Palestine,” the lyrics celebrate the actions of a female suicide bomber who blows herself up in Tel Aviv. Read more arutzsheva

OUR COUNTRY
When a Jew say this about the country he is living in while being in GALUT....
Holland is not my country, becuase I am part of Am Israel. ERETZ ISRAEL IS MY COUNTRY.
Here is where Hashem protects me and take care of me while i DO mitzvot, in Kdusha.
“They will not see the land that I promised to their forefathers. All that anger Me will not see it.” (BeMidbar 14:23)
To not to live here is rebellion against Hashem.
If a man wishes to resettle in the land of Israel and his wife refuses, the man may divorce his wife and he has no obligation to pay his wife the amount she is promised by her ketubah – her marriage contract. Similarly, if a woman wishes to settle in the land of Israel and her husband refuses, she may demand a divorce with full payment of her ketubah.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
According to the Sages, our observance of these mitzvot in exile is only practice for our return to the land of Israel!
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
While in GALUT, you are practicing the mitzvot just for one reason, to not to forget, that you are a JEW and must RETURN to AM ISRAEL IN ERETZ ISRAEL.
TARYAG contr- heart out of your body.
The Jew was given 613 commandments (mitzvot), according to the Talmud, which contain 248 positive commands and 365 negative ones. The positive mitzvot equal the number of parts of the body; the negative mitzvot correspond to the number of days in the solar year.
