With a returning punch? -Or a total knock-out blow?
While you were sleeping.... Iran has established military and economic bases across the Americas: South, Central and North America. How do they do this? Through drugs, crime, forgeries, and missile bases pointed towards the USA.

Listen in to learn some amazing facts about the planet and its connection to this Torah portion.
The next holocaust is a very loaded topic. It is up to us to see the signs, signals, and trends, and then immediately act in earnest! One can't 'beat' or win, against the wave of antisemitism. History has shown us this, and has taught us that the only real way to survive and live in safety is to move, and Israel is the only home for the Jewish People, and the safest place to be. Tamar dishes it out and pleads for her brothers and sisters to see the signs, and realize that not even in the academic world, on college campuses, can a Jew be free.

Listen to hear what the sages of Judaism have to say, and to gain insight into why the apparent argumentative style of Talmudic discourse was all part of the plan.

Rod Reuven Dovid Bryant and Jerry Gordon bring back Gil Hoffman, pollical analyst and columnist of the Jerusalem Post to assess the political dynamics of the first historic Israeli do-over election on September 17th. The April 9th election failed to result in Bibi forming a ruling coalition because he couldn’t get Avigdor Liberman of Yisrael Beiteinu to join or even Labor party leader Gabbay to join. Hoffman’s bottom line is that it will be hard for Netanyahu to reach the required 61 Knesset seats to form a ruling coalition. There is the reforming of the United Arab -Balad party list with currently 9 seats in the polls to foil a possible ruling coalition.

Have you ever created a fantasy in your mind about how something was going to turn out and in the end, it was nothing like what you imagined?
