Biden's dangerous games are giving Israel's enemies carte blanche to attack.

 To+both,

Biden's dangerous games are giving Israel's enemies carte blanche to attack.

Israel is facing deadly attacks from Hamas and Iran, as well as insidious lawfare by the International Criminal Court (ICC). The ICC is poised to issue arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu.

And despite pledging "ironclad" support for Israel, Biden halted a shipment of weapons to Israel.

We IMMEDIATELY filed a FOIA request to expose this betrayal. And a few days after our filing, Biden announced he WOULD send over $1 billion in artillery and tactical vehicles to Israel.

But those shipments may not happen for years. Israel doesn't have time for Biden's flip-flopping.

We're preparing to defend Israel before the ICC. We also sent demand letters to the Biden Administration and filed formal legal complaints against Columbia University for allowing the violent protests targeting Jewish and Christian students.

And we just filed TWO critical written submissions to the U.N. defending Israel and exposing Iran's plot to obliterate the Jewish state.

Israel needs our help NOW. Sign our urgent petition.

Sign NOW: Defend Israel From Global Attacks.

UPDATE: ACLJ Demands Answers for Biden's Betrayal.

A principal unconstitutionally told a teacher that she could not pray at school or even give the appearance of praying. After we filed a lawsuit on her behalf, he changed his story, claiming he didn't tell her she couldn't pray.

One problem – the conversation was recorded. When our client asked if she could pray in the parking lot, far from the flagpole, the principal said: "You have the right to pray in private . . . but not in front of students. And there are students at the front . . . so you can't do that."

Our client's rights were indeed violated. And we just submitted the transcript in court.

Our election integrity is in jeopardy.

All one has to do to register to vote in this country is check a box stating that they're a citizen. No ID necessary. No proof of citizenship required. It's preposterous.

Thankfully, Speaker Mike Johnson, Representative Chip Roy, and Senator Mike Lee have introduced the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act to ensure that noncitizens do not vote. SAVE would require potential voters to present proof of citizenship at registration.

Furthermore, states would be required to remove noncitizens from the list of eligible voters upon receiving documentation verifying that the registrant is a noncitizen.

The bill even includes a right for citizens to sue election officials who register an applicant without proof of citizenship. And it would make those officials subject to a criminal penalty, including a fine, imprisonment, or both.

Judaism is About Love:
 Recovering the Heart of Jewish Life

A profound, startling new understanding of Jewish life, illuminating the forgotten heart of Jewish theology and practice: love A dramatic misinterpretation of Jewish tradition has shaped the history of the West: Christianity is the religion of love, and Judaism the religion of law. In the face of centuries of this misrepresentation, Rabbi Shai Held -- one of the most important Jewish thinkers in America today -- recovers the heart of the Jewish tradition, offering the radical and moving argument that love belongs as much to Judaism as it does to Christianity. Blending intellectual rigor, a respect for tradition, and a commitment to the full equality of all people, Held seeks to reclaim Judaism as it authentically is. He shows that love is foundational to Judaism, animating the singular Jewish perspective on justice, family life, responsibilities to our neighbors and even our enemies.

Daddy BY SYLVIA PLATH

  Daddy

BY SYLVIA PLATH

You do not do, you do not do   

Any more, black shoe

In which I have lived like a foot   

For thirty years, poor and white,   

Barely daring to breathe or Achoo.

Daddy, I have had to kill you.   

You died before I had time——

Marble-heavy, a bag full of God,   

Ghastly statue with one gray toe   

Big as a Frisco seal

And a head in the freakish Atlantic   

Where it pours bean green over blue   

In the waters off beautiful Nauset.   

I used to pray to recover you.

Ach, du.

In the German tongue, in the Polish town   

Scraped flat by the roller

Of wars, wars, wars.

But the name of the town is common.   

My Polack friend

Says there are a dozen or two.   

So I never could tell where you   

Put your foot, your root,

I never could talk to you.

The tongue stuck in my jaw.

It stuck in a barb wire snare.   

Ich, ich, ich, ich,

I could hardly speak.

I thought every German was you.   

And the language obscene

An engine, an engine

Chuffing me off like a Jew.

A Jew to Dachau, Auschwitz, Belsen.   

I began to talk like a Jew.

I think I may well be a Jew.

The snows of the Tyrol, the clear beer of Vienna   

Are not very pure or true.

With my gipsy ancestress and my weird luck   

And my Taroc pack and my Taroc pack

I may be a bit of a Jew.

I have always been scared of you,

With your Luftwaffe, your gobbledygoo.   

And your neat mustache

And your Aryan eye, bright blue.

Panzer-man, panzer-man, O You——

Not God but a swastika

So black no sky could squeak through.   

Every woman adores a Fascist,   

The boot in the face, the brute   

Brute heart of a brute like you.

You stand at the blackboard, daddy,   

In the picture I have of you,

A cleft in your chin instead of your foot   

But no less a devil for that, no not   

Any less the black man who

Bit my pretty red heart in two.

I was ten when they buried you.   

At twenty I tried to die

And get back, back, back to you.

I thought even the bones would do.

But they pulled me out of the sack,   

And they stuck me together with glue.   

And then I knew what to do.

I made a model of you,

A man in black with a Meinkampf look

And a love of the rack and the screw.   

And I said I do, I do.

So daddy, I’m finally through.

The black telephone’s off at the root,   

The voices just can’t worm through.

If I’ve killed one man, I’ve killed two——

The vampire who said he was you   

And drank my blood for a year,

Seven years, if you want to know.

Daddy, you can lie back now.

There’s a stake in your fat black heart   

And the villagers never liked you.

They are dancing and stamping on you.   

They always knew it was you.

Daddy, daddy, you bastard, I’m through

the Jewish question

 

Jews are Human

 Jews are human beings! They deserve human rights. It is only because of the Jews that women have any rights at all! Planet earth hates that! Planet earth hates that women should have any rights at all. This Infuriates the planet we live on! We must weep forever! We must never allow ourselves to stop weeping! The Jews just want to live! Why is this so evil? Why must the Jews die for this? The Jews just want to breathe air! Why should they be forced to die for this? The Jews just want meaning in life! Why punish them for this?

chai according to wikipedia

 According to The Jewish Daily Forward, its use as an amulet originates in 18th century Eastern Europe.^[1] Chai as a symbol goes back to medieval Spain. Letters as symbols in Jewish culture go back to the earliest Jewish roots, the Talmud states that the world was created from Hebrew letters which form verses of the Torah. In medieval Kabbalah, Chai is the lowest (closest to the physical plane) emanation of God.^[2] According to 16th century Greek rabbi Shlomo Hacohen Soloniki, in his commentary on the Zohar, Chai as a symbol has its linkage in the Kabbalah texts to God's attribute of 'Ratzon', or motivation, will, muse.^[3] The Jewish commentaries give an especially long treatment to certain verses in the Torah with the word as their central theme. Three examples are Leviticus 18:5 וָחַי בָּהֶם‎ 'Chai Bahem', 'and you shall live by [this faith]' (as opposed to just doing it), this is part of the section dealing with the legacy of Moses Our Teacher following his death. Deuteronomy 30:15 רְאֵה נָתַתִּי לְפָנֶיךָ הַיּוֹם, אֶת-הַחַיִּים וְאֶת-הַטּוֹב, וְאֶת-הַמָּוֶת, וְאֶת-הָרָע. ‎ "Verily, I have set before thee this day life and good, and death and evil, in that I command thee this day to love the LORD thy God, to walk in His ways, and to keep His commandments and His statutes and His ordinances; then thou shalt live." There is nary an ancient Jewish commentator who does not comment on that verse. The Shema prayer as well speaks of the importance of Chai, to live and walk in the Jewish cultural lifestyle.

Two common Jewish names used since Talmudic times, are based on this symbol, Chaya feminine, Chayim masculine.^{[citation needed]} The Jewish toast (on alcoholic beverages such as wine) is l'chaim, 'to life'.^[2]

On a spiritual (and historical) level, chai stands for being alive in front of God as opposed to being (spiritually) dead. This is derived from Tenach, Deuteronomy 30:19-20 where (the) heaven(s) and the earth are depicted as a witness for the fact that there is life and death, blessing and curse and that you (therefore) should choose Life (God), in order to live.

Thou shalt not inovate

Lamentations 5 New International Version (NIV)

5 Remember, Lord, what has happened to us;
    look, and see our disgrace.
2 Our inheritance has been turned over to strangers,
    our homes to foreigners.
3 We have become fatherless,
    our mothers are widows.
4 We must buy the water we drink;
    our wood can be had only at a price.
5 Those who pursue us are at our heels;
    we are weary and find no rest.
6 We submitted to Egypt and Assyria
    to get enough bread.
7 Our ancestors sinned and are no more,
    and we bear their punishment.
8 Slaves rule over us,
    and there is no one to free us from their hands.
9 We get our bread at the risk of our lives
    because of the sword in the desert.
10 Our skin is hot as an oven,
    feverish from hunger.
11 Women have been violated in Zion,
    and virgins in the towns of Judah.
12 Princes have been hung up by their hands;
    elders are shown no respect.
13 Young men toil at the millstones;
    boys stagger under loads of wood.
14 The elders are gone from the city gate;
    the young men have stopped their music.
15 Joy is gone from our hearts;
    our dancing has turned to mourning.
16 The crown has fallen from our head.
    Woe to us, for we have sinned!
17 Because of this our hearts are faint,
    because of these things our eyes grow dim
18 for Mount Zion, which lies desolate,
    with jackals prowling over it.

19 You, Lord, reign forever;
    your throne endures from generation to generation.
20 Why do you always forget us?
    Why do you forsake us so long?
21 Restore us to yourself, Lord, that we may return;
    renew our days as of old
22 unless you have utterly rejected us
    and are angry with us beyond measure.
