If you passed the Covid test, don't fail this one
Does Hashem want you hiding in “safe rooms” right now, glued to the media?
Does Hashem want the shuls and yeshivas to be closed down yet again?
Does Hashem want you to be waiting for instructions from a regime that has been waging war with Him and His most loyal followers since before they founded the fake-Jewish state?
Does Hashem want you celebrating the presumed achievements of an army run by kofrim, which desecrates the Torah from top to bottom in the name of Judaism, and whose goal in large part is to secularize religious people, all while treating religious Jews as disposable commodities?
Even if we had a true Jewish army run according to the Torah, would Hashem want you crediting them for keeping you safe? Have you ever opened a Tanach? Did you internalize anything?
Our grandparents in Europe went to great lengths, even risking their lives, to continue davening in shul during times of persecution and war. Just a few decades later, in Eretz Yisrael, the Never-Againers who serve the state are swift to lock their shuls and yeshivos whenever the apostate regime (and the false prophets who do their bidding) recommends it. It is worth the "risk" to stock up on toilet paper in the supermarket, but assembling in a holy place and beseeching Hashem is not.
Any shul that was closed on Shabbos should stay closed. It is not an Orthodox shul.
Anyone who thinks he is truly safer in his "safe room" than in a shul, that the proper response to any hint of danger is the cancellation of Torah and mitzvos, that proper hishtadlus includes the indefinite cessation of normal Jewish life in worship of "statistics", as dictated to us by kofrim, must realize that his connection to Hashem is extremely weak, if it even exists at all — and THAT is the greatest threat to his life in this world and the next.
Everything around you is just an illusion and a test. Even if you believe there is an actual war between Iran and Israel, and the latter is sincerely trying to protect you, the former has no actual power to harm you and the latter has no actual power to protect you. The only question is what sort of hishtadlus Hashem expects you to do simply because of the requirement to perform some hishtadlus most of the time. The hishtadlus itself does not protect you, and any hishtadlus that runs contrary to the Torah is by definition prohibited and a lack of bitachon.
This is a fundamental lesson on the topic of bitachon and hishtadlus, and if you do not internalize this, you cannot live properly as a Jew, and whatever religiosity you portray on the outside is a sham. That is the harsh truth.
All of Tanach and Chazal will support this. It is one of the first lessons a child should learn. If you are not on board with this, you'd better hit the books, do some serious introspection, and catch up quickly.
Here is an article from October 17, 2021. Replace “plague” with “sirens”, and the underlying principles hold true.
On March 17, 2020 I published an article called The Torah Temima on Plagues. At the time I understood that the redemption process was rapidly unfolding, but I was still in the dark about so much that is clear today. It takes time for people to realize that everything their government is doing in response to an “emergency” is intended to harm them, and I was no exception.
Israel had placed its unsuspecting population under house arrest for the first time, and we believed it was to prevent a plague from ravaging us. The Gemara in Bava Kama (60B) came to mind, which teaches that in a time of plague one should stay inside. This certainly seemed to mesh with the idea of a temporary “lockdown” until the plague could run its course.
Of course, we now know that the plague wasn't really a plague (certainly not how halacha defines one, even if all those “covid” deaths were really as advertised), and the lockdowns were never about protecting people's health. Furthermore, even if there were a real plague, nowhere does the Torah or our tradition indicate that the government should force people to stay inside. The risk/benefit assessment of leaving one's home for any reason is always left to the individual, even as the Gemara advises people to generally stay indoors.
This point must be emphasized. Jewish law does not grant the government the power to restrict people's movements during a plague, neither to protect them nor for “the public good”. Those who wish to enter the public domain know that others have the same privilege, and this comes with certain risks for everyone. Each individual may take personal precautions as they see fit, or avoid the public domain if they prefer. No one has the right to ban anyone from the public domain because they are afraid of other people exercising their God-given right to be there; they can only ban themselves. (Also see Public Safety in the Torah.)
Indeed, the Gemara that people take out of context to support government-imposed lockdowns refutes their logic on the very same page. One Baraysa teaches that when there is a plague in the city, one should not walk in the middle of the road, because the Angel of Death is walking there; since he has been given permission to go out, he goes out openly. In a time of peace, one should not walk on the side of the road, because then the Angel of Death must skulk around.
Leaving aside scientific corroboration or lack thereof, this teaching clearly indicates that the previous teaching – to stay indoors during a time of plague – is a general recommendation, not an ironclad rule. People were still expected to go about in the streets, and even travel between cities, albeit with precautions to avoid bumping into the Angel of Death.
The next Baraysa is even more striking. It states as follows: “If there is a plague in the city, an individual should not go to the synagogue, because the Angel of Death deposits his instruments there. However, this is only true if there are not children learning there or ten men praying there.”
There are surely deep spiritual lessons here, but the primary message could not be more straightforward. Not only are people supposed to continue to assemble to pray and study Torah during a time of plague, such assemblies offer special protection! The Angel of Death takes up residence in the synagogue specifically when the people abandon it.
Closing shuls and yeshivos during a plague is the worst possible response according to the Gemara. They should be filled around the clock with people praying and children studying Torah.
I know of one shul in Beit Shemesh, most likely one of many, in which the members asked the rabbi a tragic question before Yom Kippur. The shul required everyone to wear a mask and was extremely strict about it. Both the mouth and nose had to be completely covered at all times, no sneaking in some unobstructed breaths whatsoever! However, many of the members were concerned about wearing the mask for so many hours while fasting.
Did they ask if they could relax their strict masking requirements for the most important prayers of the year? No.
They asked if they could hasten the prayers.
The rabbi gave his blessing.
The Master of the Universe was sitting on His throne that day, while these Jews with faces covered petitioned Him for forgiveness, protection, and life. They rushed through this petition, because they were afraid they would get sick and die if they uncovered their faces even momentarily. God's house, where they were begging Him for life, was full of deadly diseases.
“God, please grant us life, but we have to hurry and get out of here, or we might die.”
Was this gathering a treacherous balancing act like sneaking in a prayer under the shadow of the Nazis or the KGB? No. It was paranoia and slavish obedience to godless “health” authorities, concretized as a holy sacrifice, more life-preserving than anything they believed their prayers to God would really do for them. Unreligious Zionism.
If the threat of baring one's Tzelem Elokim in shul on Yom Kippur were truly clear and present, all the devout Jews throughout Israel would have readily taken the necessary precautions. That was far from the case. Clearly, this was more about conforming to social expectations than anything to do with science or Torah.
The Torah is quite clear about this, for those who are unwilling to subvert it to please the godless ones. If there is a plague in the city, public prayers and Torah study keep the Angel of Death at bay. It is no wonder that the godless ones – and their Erev Rav shills – insist that just the opposite is true.
Lockdowns are against the Torah; entering the public domain is a sacrosanct personal right.
Restricting access to shuls and yeshivos flies in the face of the Gemara, which encourages public prayer and Torah study to continue unabated during times of plague – all the more so when it isn't a plague as defined by halacha.
Religious Jews who are truly religious, God-fearing people must take guidance from the Torah and fight for the Torah's position. They must educate the “health” authorities and stand firm for what is true. If the “health” authorities refuse to accept the truth, they must be replaced, period.
This is our religious duty. In the merit of petitioning Hashem properly, together, without fear of illness or one another, He will surely bless us with life. That is the way of the Torah, the tree of life for all who fast to it.

I wonder if these false prophets get paid per job or they're on a retainer.
The brilliant Israeli masterminds who supposedly decapitated Iran in one day couldn't prevent Hamas from rolling across the border with pickup trucks and a donkey, and are still sending soldiers into a meat grinder in little Gaza nearly two years later. Make it make sense.
The globalist Netanyahu desecrated the Kotel with his presence for a photo-op of him “praying”, then his regime instructed everyone to close the shuls. HE should pray in public, but not actual God-fearing, Torah-observant Jews.
What a joke, and so many people just can't see it.
Is this from an Iranian rocket or something else?
Here are a couple of the many videos going around social media:
VIDEOS can be seen HERE
Does this look like rockets being launched from over 2000 km away or rockets being launched by the regime against its own people? What do you see?
What are the odds that the leaders of Iran, Israel, and the United States would all be tight with Klaus Schwab and the World Economic Forum?
If you don't trust the recommendations of the Health Ministry to be healthy, don't trust the recommendations of the Defense Ministry to be safe. They are controlled by the same monsters.

כותב העיתונאי ממי גולן:
זאת באמת הייתה הצלחה רבתי פרט לכמה מישורים זניחים שהדיקטטורה קצת חלשה בהם :
1. לא ראיתי עד עכשיו בשום מקום זנב של טיל איראני, מנוע או מערכת ניווט שלא לדבר על לוגו או רמז לשם היצרן שתמיד חורט אותו על ראש גאוותו הזקורה.
2. בכל העולם, כאשר אוכלוסיה אזרחית מותקפת באכזריות בטילים בליסטיים של האוייב היא הופכת אבן על אבן בעיי החורבות שהם יוצרים כדי להציג אותם לעולם הרחב.
3. כאשר ארצות הברית למשל הותקפה ב - 2017 על ידי טילים איראניים ניקי היילי, השגרירה באו״ם, כאן בתמונה, הקימה תערוכת שרידי טילים ניידת ליד מטה מועצת הביטחון. יכולת לראות שם ראשי נפץ, מנועים, מערכות ניווט של טילים נושאי כתוביות - כמעט כמו מגרש חלפים ברחוב המסגר, רק היה חסר שתעשה להם ביטוח וטסט.
4. וככה בדיוק גם באוקראינה, סרביה, ירדן, ערב הסעודית. מדינה מותקפת בטילי אוייב אכזר מצלמת ומפיצה את תמונות הטילים ששיגר בכל העולם.
5. אבל בישראל צוותי העיתונות הזרים שהגיעו אתמול כדי לצלם בזירות הפיגוע נחסמו ונשלחו אחר כבוד מפוקפק לצפות בסרטונים של דובר צה״ל. איך אני יודע ? פשוט, הם סיפרו לי.
6. והאזרחים עצמם נדרשו לא לצלם ולא להפיץ את הבזקי האור בשמיים שהותירו המון מקום לדמיון, כוכב עלה ונצנץ ירד ופסים אורקוליים נמתו בשריקות משמאל לימין, נשיאים ורוח וטילים איין או לפחות לא רואים.
7. זאת לא הייתה הפעם הראשונה שבה לא ראינו זנב או קצה של טיל איראני או ח׳וטי. בעצם אף פעם לא ראינו צילום אחד ברור, ישיר, מאומת על ידי מומחה. מה שראינו בשפע הוא פסים, פיצוצים, שובלי אור אה - לה מלחמת הכוכבים וכתבי טלוויזיה דרמטיים כמו קול הרעם מקהיר.
8. שאלתי היום את הצ׳אט כמה זמן ייקח לו לבנות מצגת כזאת והוא ענה יישאר לך עודף משבע דקות.
9. ועוד הערה קטנה בנושאי אמון : כאשר המשטר פולש לתוך הטלפון החסום שלי בשלוש לפנות בוקר כדי להודיע לי באזעקה מטורללת שלא אדאג כי הוא לטובתי אני מתעב אותו מעומק הלב ולא מאמין לו לאף מילה.
10. אבל כאשר הוא עושה את זה לעשרה וחצי מיליון אנשים, מתוכם מיליון פוסט טראומטיים, מוכי הלם קרב, הורים ואחים לקורבנות השפנדמיה, נובה ועזה זה אומר שהוא בריון שכונתי שהפך את השב״כ לקרדום לחפור בו או לטיל מונחה קרקע - אזרח.
11. וכן, היו לנו הרוגים למרבה הצער כי תמיד האזרח הקטן משלם את מחיר התרמית ואולי גם חוסלו באיראן אנשי צבא שאין להם תחליף במשך שבוע ימים, כמו בעזה, אבל מעל מבצע שלום הלביבה נפרשו כרגיל עננות מרוססות באדים סמיכים של נכלולים ודיסאינפורמציה עד שלא ידענו אם זאת חצי אמת או עוד עדלאידע.
12. אנחנו מהממשלה ובאנו להגן עליך ממגפה, מלחמה או התקפת טילים - זה הסיוט שלי כבר חמש וחצי שנים.

Journalist Mami Golan writes: It was truly a great success, except for a few minor areas where the dictatorship was a bit weak:
1. I have never seen anywhere the tail of an Iranian missile, an engine or a navigation system, let alone a logo or a hint of the manufacturer's name that always carves it on the top of its proud head.
2. All over the world, when a civilian population is brutally attacked by enemy ballistic missiles, they turn stone upon stone in the ruins they create to show them to the wider world.
3. When the United States, for example, was attacked in 2017 by Iranian missiles, Nikki Haley, the ambassador to the UN, here in the picture, set up a mobile missile remnants exhibition near the Security Council headquarters. You could see warheads, engines, missile navigation systems with captions there - almost like a parts yard on Locksmith Street, all that was missing was insurance and testing.
4. And it's exactly the same in Ukraine, Serbia, Jordan, Saudi Arabia. A country under missile attack by a cruel enemy photographs and distributes the images of the missiles it has launched all over the world.
5. But in Israel, the foreign press teams that arrived yesterday to photograph the scenes of the attack were blocked and sent, with dubious honor, to watch the videos of the IDF spokesman. How do I know? They simply told me.
6. And the citizens themselves were required not to photograph or distribute the flashes of light in the sky that left a lot of room for the imagination, a star rose and twinkled and fell and audiovisual streaks died down with whistles from left to right, presidents and wind and missiles were not seen or at least not seen.
7. This wasn't the first time we didn't see the tail or tip of an Iranian or Houthi missile. In fact, we've never seen a single clear, direct, expert-verified photo. What we saw in abundance were streaks, explosions, Star Wars-esque light trails, and dramatic TV reports like the sound of thunder from Cairo.
8. I asked the chat today how long it would take him to create such a presentation and he replied that you would have more than seven minutes left.
9. And another small note on trust issues: When the regime invades my blocked phone at three in the morning to inform me with a crazy alarm that I should not worry because it is for my own good, I despise it from the bottom of my heart and do not believe a word it says.
10. But when he does this to ten and a half million people, of whom a million are post-traumatic, battle-shocked, parents and siblings of the victims of the pandemic, Nova and Gaza, it means he is a neighborhood thug who turned the Shin Bet into a digging axe or a ground-guided missile - a civilian.
11. And yes, we had casualties, unfortunately, because the common citizen always pays the price of deception, and perhaps irreplaceable military personnel were also eliminated in Iran for a week, as in Gaza, but over Operation Peace Spring, clouds spread as usual, sprayed with thick vapors of deception and disinformation, until we didn't know if it was a half-truth or more of a lie.
12. We are from the government and we have come to protect you from a pandemic, war or missile attack - this has been my nightmare for five and a half years. Pictured: Nikki Haley verifies missiles.
Sometimes when I hear a siren I pray that whatever is being fired at us should boomerang and destroy those who are responsible for it.
Of course, that would lead to at least three countries needing new elections…
