Rabbi Green: When the wicked perish


Regarding the death of Raisi, may his name be erased:

The death of an evil foe is always a good thing. The delay of an evil decree to execute a young Jew (or any innocent person for that matter) is surely a good thing. We should give thanks to Hashem for His manifold kindness and pray for more revealed miracles, especially for Arvin Netanel ben Sonya Tziyona. 

However, I must state publicly that any information fed to us by mainstream news agencies is automatically suspect.

We cannot know if any helicopter crash actually occurred. We don't know if Raisi's alleged death was an accident or if it was scripted. Was he removed by someone or something even more sinister? Or was his death in fact an exclusive Act of G-d?

In truth, all events are ordained by G-d Almighty, even when there are human perpetrators and collaborators, like in missile attacks and false flag psyops. All human culprits, even mastermind terrorists and the super-wealthy predator class, are mere chess pieces in the Hand of G-d. 

Nevertheless, we are obliged to acknowledge Hashem for the death of the wicked, irrespective of whether it was truly an accident or whether it was caused by people who are even more wicked.

When the wicked perish, there is song [Mishlei 11:10].

So too may all Your enemies perish, O God [Judges 5:31].
