Each one of us relates to the text in a way that is unique from one to another as well as being unique and singular to our new selves; we are not the same as we were last year, last month, or even two hours ago.
Today, perhaps the last great love affair takes place here in America. The current political scene is no less revolutionary as those of the past.

Between 2000 and 2018, the number of people with doctorates more than doubled.
The choleh is most important, because only he knows his own body. Once Yom Kippur begins, it’s only me, and one has to trust his own body.
The response to the former US president's Truth Social post has been nothing short of a hysterical – purposeful – misreading of his words, which were neither threatening nor antisemitic
Despite Biden’s claims, the agreement involves concessions to terrorists in exchange for quiet and empty U.S. guarantees. That’s not the same as a peace based on mutual interests.
Rewriting history isn’t the former Israeli prime minister’s only specialty. Projection is another. But his latest assertions about Benjamin Netanyahu’s camp were more like slander and libel than mere hypocrisy.

Evident from the attacks on the British prime minister, Western leaders are themselves becoming victims of the Palestinians' smear campaigns. This is what happens when Western governments lavish untold millions of dollars on the Palestinians without requiring accountability and without demanding an end to the venomous Palestinian rhetoric against Israel and Jews.
Simply put, while Rep. Zeldin has come forward with common-sense approaches, Gov. Hochul has been missing in action on all of these critical fronts, seemingly determined to avoid angering her leftist-woke base with its catastrophic agenda.
This is a society in which refusing to say that men give birth can lead to social banning and the loss of one’s job and income.

To suggest that Hezbollah is a separate part of Lebanon's cultural and political life is to misunderstand Lebanon. To suggest that Israel is negotiating with the Lebanese government, and not with Hassan Nasrallah, is a fatal mistake.

Israel must not give in to U.S. demands, but protect and nurture its own sovereignty and pride
The two-state solution was never part of the key documents that provided the diplomatic basis for the Arab-Israeli peace process in the past.
For many of us, these memories offer a feeling we badly wish we could recapture. If only we could feel so carefree, so happy, so young, so innocent, so simple and wholesome.

Wars and defeats can determine the fate of nations and states for decades to come – sometimes for generations.

If Iran's mullahs are committing such atrocities against their own people, it is not hard to imagine what they will do to their much-hated enemies... Iranian missiles, eventually with nuclear warheads, are clearly being developed not just for Israel.
It sounds like the vice president's goal is not equality in the traditional sense of treating everyone the same, but rather to somehow achieve equivalent outcomes across disparate populations. She is aiming for equity, not equality.
Anti-Zionism is flatly anti-Semitic. The free speech arguments run in the other direction: Berkeley’s anti-Zionist bylaws limit the free speech ...
The climate in Israel surrounding the upcoming Knesset election has been puttingTwo current travesties perfectly illustrate why I myself cannot feel anything but contempt for the interim government, headed by caretaker Prime Minister Yair Lapid, coupled with a sense of urgency that it be replaced by a Likud party-led coalition. a bit of a damper on this year's Days of Awe.

Yesterday this sinner was separated from Hashem… But today he is connected with the Shechinah… he observes commandments, and they are received with pleasure and joy…
The growing shift of upper-class urban and suburban liberal Republicans to the Democrats and the move of working-class rural Democrats to the GOP isn’t a new phenomenon
Israel's national development & socio-political trajectory can be best understood by examining the dynamic progression of our ancient kings.

The Western world has provided more wealth and convenience to more citizens than any other civilization in history. We are practically inundated with resources, but we are running out of people, the only truly indispensable resource.
So, along with me, guess (or should I say prognosticate?) about the coming year.

By officially calling for “an agreement with the Palestinians, based on two states for two peoples,” Prime Minister Yair Lapid has changed the election paradigm from “anybody but Netanyahu” back to the issue that has divided Israel’s left and right since Yitzhak Rabin signed the infamous Oslo Accords in 1993.
A little over a week ago, Justice Roberts expressed concern publicly that the Supreme Court’s reputation is being unfairly undermined.
For 12 years, under Benjamin Netanyahu and the Likud, Israel pursued a foreign policy based not on depending on the U.S. but on Israeli economic and military power. The results speak for themselves. The results of the Benny Gantz-Yair Lapid U.S.-reliant appeasement policies also speak for themselves.
Lapid’s support for a Palestinian state compounds a disastrous error.
The international community, for its part, is so preoccupied with bashing Israel that no one is calling out these putative Palestinian "peace partners" over their role in terrorism. This silence is also encouraging these Palestinian "peace partners" to continue their attacks.

Most importantly, the Jewish presence in the area of the Mt. of Olives, and throughout eastern Jerusalem, has grown significantly in recent years.
My reasoning was that self-esteem needs to be earned, that it cannot and should not be given. People walking around with unearned high self-esteem are often a danger to society.

For all the meaning a religious Jewish life can bring, let’s be honest: this is a complicated world to live in.
On one of our myriad trips to Target I spotted a t-shirt with the words “Who are these kids and why are they calling me mom?” I laughed so hard I cried; my girls looked at me like I was nuts, and I think my oldest daughter was a little insulted at my reaction.

Demagogues like the King of Jordan protest against Israel on the basis that they represent a so-called position of moral clarity. They use lies and false accusations against the Jewish State in a continuing and ongoing effort to delegitimize Israel.
The recent outcome of a lawsuit first begun in 2016 by a family-owned business suggests that it may no longer be the case that everything goes in the woke era.
The fact that she died in her beloved Scotland, brought a cascade of memories about my own mom and dad rushing back and I cried again.
The Jewish city and history of Beitar is remembered by observant Jews each time they break bread, for the fourth blessing of the Grace after Meals commemorates the massacre and the miracle that happened there in that place. The massacre occurred in 135 CE. Hundreds of thousands (some say millions) of Jews were slaughtered by […]
Their primary goal, above all else, is to raise future chassidim. This is what they want, it is what they seek, it shapes what they emphasize and what they do not, and it shapes the educational risks they are willing to take and those they are not.

Awesome! my inner Baid Yaakov girl enthused, it’s good someone reminded you to start saying it. And who knows? Hashem can make anything happen, right?
Persecution of minorities in the lands in which they dwell happens often and in many places. Total annihilation of a people – the murder of men, women and children – is far more rare; the Shoah, the attempt to annihilate Jews everywhere on the scale envisioned and practiced by the Nazis, was without precedent, dare one say unique.
Had Trump or a strong Republican been in office (or at least a less pathetically inept Democrat), Putin might not have gone all in. Now that he’s all in, this war isn’t just going to vanish.
