    “Every current criticism of Israel – whether made by Israelis,
    American Jews, or others – is used by its enemies as part of
    an explicit international campaign to delegitimize Israel.”

    Harvard Law Professor Alan M. Dershowitz said:

    The security of Israel is not assured.

    Israel is the only nation in the world
    whose very existence is threatened
    by enemies, external and internal,
    supported by a majority of the United Nations.

    It is the only nation in the world whose
    national movement, Zionism, has been
    declared a form of racism by the United Nations.

    It is the only nation in the world threatened
    by genocidal war, the purpose of which
    is not military victory alone, but extermination.

    The genocide of Israel’s Jewish population
    – a population roughly the size of the Polish Jewish
    population at the beginning of World War II –
    is not an unrealistic nightmare.

    Nothing today prevents it other than Israel’s
    military superiority over the combined
    Arab armies and terrorist organizations.

    If the Arab armies and terrorists were
    capable of defeating Israel, destroying
    its Jewish population, and “reclaiming”
    ALL of current Israel, there can be
    little doubt that they would try to do so.

    Indeed, if any Arab leader were militarily
    capable of destroying Israel, but refrained
    from doing so, he would be replaced
    by someone who would at least try.

    …Although there are some moderate voices
    within the Palestinian and Arab movements,
    these voices are listened to only because Israel
    is too strong today to be defeated totally.

    Too few understand why Israel cannot and
    should not trust its survival to nations that stood
    idly by while millions of innocent Jews were destroyed.

    Too many nations seem willing to have Israel
    take risks for an uncertain regional peace that
    they themselves are unwilling to take for a
    more important world peace.”

    “…if Israel’s military power were ever to be diminished
    to the point that the combined armies of the Arab world
    could defeat it, I believe there would be another Holocaust.

    No Arab dictator who could defeat Israel and forebore
    from doing so would survive the continuing frenzy for
    jihad [Islamic holy war against non-Muslims].

    And an Arab military victory over Israel – unlike
    the Israeli victories over the Arabs – would not
    result in a mere occupation or even detention of Israeli Jews.

    It would result in a mass slaughter,
    designed to rid Arab holy land of Jewish intruders.

    Most Jews know this, though they rarely speak of it openly.”

    This actually happened on 2023 October 7.

    Mr. Patrick Condell is an atheist with no Jewish ancestors,
    yet he accurately predicted what happened at the massacre
    of 2023 October 7, around 9 years before it happened.

    Alan Dershowitz should return to observance. He does not have the excuse or alibi that he’s a tinok shenishba. He’ll be held fully responsible for every time he violates Shabbos, Kashrus, and every one of the 613.

    UJM, I agree with you that Alan Dershowitz should do teshuvah.
    And as soon as possible.

    ALL JEWS should do teshuvah, including you and me.

    This is the 3rd time within 3 months that I actually agreed with UJM!

    Maybe mashiach really is coming soon!

    This is all hevel uReus ruach, and includes heresy as well, which means that this content does not belong on YWN.

    As October 7th amply showed, all the Zionists billions of dollars of defense spending is worth nothing if Hashem wants otherwise. You can throw as many billions of dollars as you can to the Zionists, but the savages still managed to breach in over 100!! places the Zionists’ billion dollar wall around Gaza, and you even had random Arabs come over afterwards from Gaza to loot TVs from the Israeli towns nearby. No Zionist army anywhere in sight, and they obviously had no fear of that army either.

    There is only one G-d in the universe and it is only He who determines and grants safety, security and peace, and He certainly neither needs nor wants the Zionist idolaters and heretics to be involved in any way at all, of course, even if He does still allow that idol and its “State” to still continue to exist, at least for this moment.

    Katan is repeating his own hevel ure’us ruach here and includes his stupidity as well.

    The corrected version al pi torah, combined with reality now, follows:

    There is only one G-d in the universe, and it is only He who determines and grants safety, security and peace, and He certainly wants the Jews [no difference from whichever persuasion] to do their utmost to save and protect their brothers as He clearly commanded in His Torah multiple times , NOT ANY LESS THAN HE WOULD EXPECT ALL JEWS TO DO TO SAVE KATAN’S OWN LITTLE DAUGHTER , where even [hypocritical ?] katan himself would use the services of any atheist/zionist/reform top surgeons ….

    What unites multiple posters who criticize Israel’s policies, both those who are repeating same sentences over & over and even those who engage in the dialog – their criticism is totally without responsibility. It is up to the government/army to provide everything they’ll find acceptable, and they criticize.

    They should act on their beliefs, create their fully independent, clearly unsubsidized community, whether in Israel, in EY outside of the Medinah, in Uganda and provide a shining example of how proper courts work, proper politics happen, proper army is organized, Last times Jews had reasonable selg-governance was in Poland – vaad arba artzos 200+ years ago. Israeli politics and US tight communities are a good practice but we need better orepration to self-govern when Moschiach comes

    You seem to be confusing Zionist idolatry with, liHavdil, Torah.
    The original post did not need to be ruined by your nonsense.

    As well, the way that Jews can save all other Jews is by learning Torah. But your idol is doing all it can to destroy that protection by shmading all the Jews there and also attempting harder than ever to destroy the Torah there even forcibly taking lomdei Torah away from their homes R”L L”A.

    Zecharia Dershowitz moved from Galicia to the USA in 1888 CE.
    He was the great-grandfather of Alan M. Dershowitz.

    “…Zecharia, like so many of his contemporaries,
    worked for a time in a sweatshop.

    The shop he worked in, making pocketbooks,
    was located in a building just east of Washington Square
    [in Manhattan], site of the ill-fated Triangle Shirtwaist Company.

    On the Saturday of the great fire in [March 25,] 1911 [CE] that
    engulfed the building and killed 145 workers,
    Reb Zecharia was at home. It was the Jewish Sabbath.

    He learned two lessons from this:
    he vowed that his children would never become factory workers
    and he vowed that they would never work on the Sabbath.”

    “It is true that the American legal system derives much

    When we were growing up, my friends and I would take
    great pride in discovering the Jewish sources of American laws,
    such as: the privilege against self-incrimination,
    the requirement of two witnesses for certain types of crime,
    and the very idea that punishment
    must be proportionate to the crime committed.”

    How many generations worth HUNDREDS or more years has hashem our loving father and King of Kings been sending us messages DIRECTLY FROM HASHEM waiting for Klal Yisroel to wake up from living in denial and FACE REALITY?

    how much horrific tragedies hitting klal yisroel rachmana litzlan has happened just in the last few months/years alone? So what HONESTLY happens in today’s generation when tragedy strikes klal yisroel Chas VShalom? We each ask ourselves as we say in Yiddish “Vos Vil De Eibishter Fun Mir” (what does Hashem want from me) i don’t know who these families that just had horrific tragedies hitting them with loss of their children, i have nothing to do with September 11 2001 hitting the world, i don’t work in Manhattan, i don’t even visit Manhattan, so what does Hashem want from me?????
    for a short while we feel it & then it leaves us & we all forget
    about it. BUT THE TRUTH is that all the waaaay in the back of us we all get Hashem’s wake up call message for serious immediate Teshuva and Achdus but we’re not ready to FACE REALITY and openly accept Hashem’s wake up call message so we leave Hashem no choice but to Chas VShalom keep hitting klal yisroel rachmana litzlan with non stop horrific tragedies. We all think that the Riches that i have are because of ME & the work i did for my Business, we forget that Hashem sent us all this money & everything in the world he is watching every day. We have to remember that all this is Happening because of אין פוראניות בעולם אלא בשביל ישראל, all this is because we don’t take these messages from Hashem for us to return to him. Hopefully now we can take these signs & prevent other tragedies from happening.

    The situation in Eretz Yisroel & in the Diaspora is very bad from Terrorists to the entire Economy going down etc… If anyone should ask why all these Tzaros are Happening to Klal Yisroel he only needs to look at what the Rambam says. Saying that as long as we remain ignorant of the present troubles that we have & what the reasons are that they are happening. The situation can only get worse until Mashiach comes. With the society we are living in today we (sadly) CONSTANTLY need reminders (wake-up calls) from HASHEM for us to do T’shuva & return to HASHEM so all this Tzaros can end & Mashiach comes.

    “The remarkable resemblances among [ancient] Roman law,
    present-day American law, and Jewish jurisprudence
    in Biblical days, is more than mere coincidence.

    The Jews devised, four centuries before [the founder of a religion],
    a legal system based on the dignity of man
    and individual equality before the law, while Europe
    still had trial-by-ordeal as late as the 15th century
    [the 1400s of the Common Era]. “

    …….

    “The accused [according to Jewish Law] was
    presumed to be innocent until proven guilty.

    He had a right to counsel and to a proper trial.

    He had a right to call witnesses, to confront his accusers,
    and to testify on his own behalf. He could not be compelled
    to testify against himself, and could not be placed in double jeopardy.

    The accused individual was permitted to appeal,
    or to have others appeal on his behalf,
    if new evidence should turn up.”

    Israel is rapidly loosing the little support it had around the world, even here in the U.S. among Christian Evangelicals as we see every day graphic images of collateral damage from IDF attacks in Gaza (not all true but many are) along with unpunished violence against Palestinians by extremist settlers in Yehuda and Shomron. Jews throuhout the world are now at risk of verbal attacks and physical violence on a scale like never before while Netanyahu seems obcessed with a “complete military victory over Hamas” that his own generals say is not attainable.
    Yes, anti-Israel/anti Zionist rhetoric has historically be a useful cover for plain old anti-semitism and Netanyahu has removed the need for any pretext.
