In a story so unbelievable that it would be rejected by a Hollywood studio for being too unrealistic, Israel managed to decimate Hezbollah in three days.  What was unleashed last week upon the Lebanon-based terror organization is nothing short of a modern miracle.  Of course, all the worst people in the world are attacking Israel for going after an enemy that has fired thousands of rockets at them for the past year.  The reaction from the American media and political class is, for the most part, morally abhorrent.  

The criticism of the tactics and the fact that it inspired some laughter from besieged Israelis speak volumes about the moral sickness afflicting many Western liberals.

 (Sep. 20, 2024 / JNS) It was the covert operation that inspired thousands of Internet memes.

In a rare exception to the rule, social media went viral over a pro-Jewish post this week in which actress Patricia Heaton installed a mezuzah on her doorpost “to show solidarity” with “Jewish friends and neighbors, fight anti-Semitism, and bless your household.” She then created a name for her campaign: #MyzuzahYourzuzah.

A debate filled with lies.  A disastrous solo interview.  Now another assassination attempt on her political opponent.  Kamala Harris is a coin flip away from becoming the President of the United States, and from every possible angle, she is wholly and completely unfit for the job she seeks.

In parshas Ki Savo, we have the tochacha, rebuke, and the long list of curses Bnei Yisrael will receive if they don’t follow the Torah. The curses were actually so severe and harsh, that at the beginning of next week’s parsha, Nizavim, Moshe Rabbeinu had to calm down Bnei Yisrael because horiku pneihem, their faces turned green from fear. How can we manage to follow the entire Torah, keep all the mitzvos, and not sin and still be deserving of all these curses?!
