IN TODAYS WORLD YIDEN ARE LIKE THE GOYIM.
THEY HOVE NO INDIVIDUALITY.
MY WIFE SAYS THAT ONE COPIES THE OTHER .
THEY ALL WEAR BLACK CLOTHES.
THE SAME IS WITH THE HEAD COVERING ,
THEY ALL WEAR A SHEITEL AND SOMETHING ON TOP.
THE FRUITS FROM THE CHILDREN WHOSE MOTHERS JUST WORE SHEITELS
AND EVEN WENT TO NON JEWISH SCHOOLS
WE CAN SEE IN TO-DAYS CHILDREN.
IF THE NEXT GENERATION IS GOING TO BE AS GOOD
I DO NOT THINK SO.
THERE IS MORE TO YIDDISHE MAMMES TZNIOUS THEN JUST
ANOTHER COVERING ON THE HEAD.
I AM OLD ENOUGH TO HAVE SEEN THE WEDDINGS OF SOME OF
THE PARENTS AND EVEN THE GRAND PARENTS.
THE YOUNGSTERS OF TO-DAY NEED AND NEED.
THEY DON'T STOP SAYING I MUST HAVE THIS AND MUST HAVE THAT.
IF YOUR PARENTS WERE POOR YOU RESPECTED YOUR PARENTS.
YOU CAN NOT HAVE A WEDDING LIKE THE RICH GIRLS.
A HEAD COVERING DOES NOT MAKE YIDDISHKEIT,
BEHAVIOUR AND MIDDOS MAKES AND IS YIDDISHKEIT.

ZIONISIM
I LATELY SAW A VIDEO OF SOME PEOPLE, I THINK IT WAS IN THE U.S.A.
DEMONSTRATING AGAINST RABBI STEINMAN SHOUTING AGAINST HIM
YEMACH SHEMO !
THE REASON BEING THAT HE DOES NOT AGREE WITH SATMAR ,ON THE POINTS
OF AGUDAS YISROEL.
RABBI ELIEZER DOVID FRIEDMAN THE ROV OF BELZ 99 BETHUNE ROAD IN LONDON TOLD ME A FEW YEARS AGO WHEN THERE WAS A DEMONSTRATION AGAINST
RABBI STEINMAN IN GOLDERS GREEN:
"HE KNOWS RABBI STEINMAN FROM YEARS AGO AND THAT HE IS A KODOSH VETOHOR".
EVEN THOUGH HE DOES NOT THINK LIKE SATMAR,
( SPECIALLY SATMARES HAVE THAT, WAY THAT THEY ARE INSULTING AND ABUSIVE WITH BAD LANGUAGE TO ANYONE WHO DOES NOT THINK LIKE THEM )
IT EASY TO JOIN THERE RANKS AND BECOME A SATMARER.
YOU CAN DO WHAT EVER YOU LIKE AS LONG AS YOU ARE AGAINST
THE STATE AND AGAINST AGUDA YISROEL.
FOR JOINING THE KNESSET IN ISRAEL.
WHICH THEY DID WITH THE BLESSING OF THE GEDOLIM.
TO HELP THE JEWS OF ISRAEL GET THEIR RIGHTS IN THE STATE
THEY ARE ZIONISTS ACCORDING TO SATMAR.
HOWEVER FRUM AND SHOMER TORAH UMTZVOS YOU ARE, HAS NO VALUE
IF YOU SUPPORT THE AGUDA THATS THE WAY THEY THINK.
I DO NOT THINK THAT THE HOLY SATMAR REBBE REALLY THOUGHT THAT.
LOTS OF PEOPLE HAVE JOINED THEIR RANKS AND THEY HAVE BECOME A BIG CROWD WHO HAVE TAKEN THAT ATTITUDE AS THE SATMAR CHASIDUS.
LOTS OF RABBONIM AND EVEN OTHER RABBIS FEEL THAT IF THEY HAVE A BIG CROWD BEHIND THEM WHICH SATMAR HAS, THEY BECOME IMPORTANT,
THAT THEY ARE BIG RABBONIM OR RABBIS,
SO IT IS IN THEIR INTEREST TO BE ACCEPTED BY THE SATMAR CHASSIDIM.
THE JEWISH CHRONICLE THINKS LIKE THESE RABONIM .
NOT WHETHER A THING IS RIGHT OR WRONG JUST BY THE AMOUNT OF PEOPLE
BEHIND THEM.
AND THESE RABBONIM YOU CAN'T EVEN GET A PROPER DIN TORAH IF A THING IS RIGHT OR WRONG.
THEY JUST LOOK AT WHAT SATMAR WILL SAY.
THAT IS WHY SO MANY PEOPLE HAVE NO RESPECT FOR THE RABBONIM TODAY.
ANYTHING SATMAR SAYS IS RIGHT.

WE DON'T CARE
THERE WAS A TRAGEDY HERE IN LONDON,
A YUNGERMAN WENT TO THE MIKVAH.
HE WAS ONE OF THOSE FUNNY PEOPLE WHO HOLD THEIR BREATH
AND STAY UNDER THE WATER A LONG TIME.
I HAVE NO IDEA WHY THESE PEOPLE DO THIS.
I HAVE ASKED A LOT OF RABBONIM AND THEY CAN NOT SEE THE POINT IN THIS BEHAVIOUR.
BUT IN TO-DAY'S WORLD EVERYTHING IS YIDDISHKEIT.
IF YOU ASK THEM ON THEIR BEHAVIOUR, THEY TELL YOU TO MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS.
THERE WAS ANOTHER YUNGERMAN IN THE MIKVAH WHO
DID NOT MIND HIS OWN BUSINESS, AND TAPED HIM ON THE SHOULDER.
HE REALISED SOMETHING WAS WRONG AND CALLED OTHER PEOPLE
TO PULL HIM OUT,THEY QUICKLY CALLED THE HATZOLA
BUT THE YUNGERMAN WAS DEAD.
THIS YUNGERMAN WHO TAPED HIM ON THE SHOULDER TOLD ME
THAT HE COULD NOT UNDERSTAND, AS HE WENT IN TO THE WATERS OF THE MIKVAH WHERE THIS YUNGERMAN WAS UNDER THE WATER A LONG TIME
ANOTHER PERSON WAS JUST GOING OUT OF THE WATERS OF THE MIKVAH,
HE WAS IN THE ACTUALLY IN THE WATER OF THE MIKVAH WITH THIS PERSON FOR A BIT, WHO WAS A LONG TIME UNDER THE WATER.
BUT " MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS" IS SO IMPORTANT AND G=D FORBID YOU MIGHT LOOK A FOOL.
A COUSIN OF MINE CAME INTO A MIKVAH A FEW YEARS AGO.
AND THERE WAS A MAN DOING THE SAME THING, STAYING UNDER THE WATER A LONG TIME.
MY COUSIN RAN INTO THE MIKVAH WITH ALL HIS CLOTH ON AND PULLED HIM UP,
THE MAN TURNED TO MY COUSIN SAYING " WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM ME " ?
MY COUSIN FELT A REAL FOOL.
BUT TO-DAY IT IS MORE IMPORTANT TO BE CORRECT " MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS"
AND THAT'S WHY WE GET LOOTERS AND THE POLICE STAND BY AND DO NOTHING.
BECAUSE THEY MIGHT NOT CHALLENGE THE LOOTERS IN THE RIGHT WAY.
I CAN NOT HELP THINKING IF THIS YUNGERMAN HAD INTERFERED
RATHER THEN MINDING HIS OWN BUSINESS,
THIS MAN MIGHT STILL BE ALIVE.

IGNORANCE
IN 1961/62 I WENT TO THE YESHIVAS MESIFTA AT 82/84 CAZENOVE ROAD.
THE YESHIVA WAS VERY SATMAR ORIENTATED.
THERE WAS A GOY-CLEANER THERE AND THEY CALLED HIM "ITCHE MEIR".
THE INTENTION WAS TO DEGRADE RABBI YITZCHOK MEIR LEVIN,
THE LEADER OF AGUDAS YISROEL.
THE SON-IN-LAW OF THE GERRER REBBE THE IMREI EMES ZT"L.
THEN IN 1962 I LEFT THE MESIFTA AND WENT TO ERETZ YISROEL.
THE FIRST THING MY COUSIN, MOSHE LEIB LOCK,DID
HE TOOK ME TO THE FRONT OF THE GERER BEIS HAMEDRASH
AND SHOWED ME RABBI ITCHE MEIR LEVIN,A YID WITH A SPODIK.
THE HAMODIA MAGAZINE 11 AUGUST 2011 HAD AN ARTICLE ON THE 40TH YAHRTZEIT OF
RABBI YITZCHOK MEIR LEVIN ZT"L.
THAT'S WHAT REMINDED ME OF THIS STORY.
THIS DOES NOT ONLY APPLY TO THE BOYS OF THE MESIFTA AND SATMAR
BUT TO THE REST OF THE CHASIDC ,LITVICHER AND ORTHODOX
FRUM WORLD.
THEY ARE SO IGNORANT WHAT GOES ON IN THE TORAH WORLD,
LEARNING AND YIDISHKEIT BY OTHERS.
ONLY WHAT THEY SAW AND WERE TAUGHT THAT WHAT YIDDISHKEIT IS.
EVEN THOUGH THE SATMAR REBBE HAD A RIGHT TO BE AGAINST THE AGUDA ,
BEFORE THE SECOND WORLD WAR AND AFTER.
THE PEOPLE OF SATMAR HAVE NO IDEA OF THE RABBIS OF ALL COUNTRIES
BEFORE THE WAR AND AFTER THE WAR WHO WERE FOR AGUDA.
THAT'S WHAT MY COUSIN WANTED TO SHOW ME.
I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED THAT THERE ARE PEOPLE STILL TO-DAY SPECIALLY IN SATMAR
WHO ARE SO IGNORANT OF THESE FACTS.
AND DO NOT TELL ME, IT IS NOT TRUE.
I AM ONE OF THOSE PEOPLE WHO MIX WITH ALL CROWDS AND I SEE THE IGNORANCE.
BUT THE SAME IGNORANCE IS IN THE GERER BELZER AND AGUDA CROWDS.
THEY DO NOT REALISE THAT SATMAR IS FULL OF REAL CHASISDSHE YIDEN.
I WAS IN YESHIVA WHEN RABBI AHRON KOTTLER WAS NIFTAR
AND WAS AT HIS FUNERAL AND BURIAL IN HAR HMANOCHOS IN GIVAT SHUAL.
I PUSHED AND WAS AT THE FRONT OF THE GRAVE
( SO I SAW THIS WITH MY OWN EYES )
IT WAS A VERY DRY YEAR A REAL DROUGHT IT WAS ALREADY KISLEV AND
NO RAIN,
WHEN THEY BURIED RABBI AHRON THEY PUT IN A WET RAG IN HIS LEFT HAND AND
A BOTTLE OF WATER IN HIS RIGHT .
THE CHEVRA KADISHE MAN SAID LOUD TO
RABBI AHRON THIS IS A SEGULA THAT WHEN YOU GET TO THE NEXT WORLD
YOU SHOULD NOT FORGET US AND ASK FOR RAIN.
THAT NIGHT THE HEAVENS OPENED AND IT POURED FOR HOURS ON END
FILLING UP NEARLY ALL THE NEEDED WATER HOLES
I WAS SURPRISED THAT I DID NOT SEE THIS OPEN MIRACLE FROM G=D
REPORTED IN THE JEWISH DAILY THE HAMODIA.
SO I WENT UP TO A CHOSHEVER YID, RABBI ELIOZER BAIN ( A GERER CHOSID )
AND ASKED HIM WHY NOTHING OF THIS OPEN MIRACLE WAS REPORTED IN THE HAMODIA
HE WAS ONE OF THE EDITORS OF THE HAMODIA.
HE ANSWERED ME THAT THE WEATHER FORECAST HAD ALREADY SAID A DAY BEFORE THAT THE RAIN WAS COMING.
I AM SURE HAD THIS BEEN FROM ONE OF THE GERER RABBIS
OR A CHASSIDISHER RABBI ,THE FRONT PAGE WOULD HAVE BEEN FULL.
THIS REMINDS ME OF A STORY
A YID CAME TO HEAVEN AND AN ANGEL TOOK HIM AROUND GAN EDEN
HE SHOWED HIM WHERE THE SATMARS WERE LEARNING
THE LITVICHER WERE LEARNING AND THE LUBVITCHERS WERE LEARNING.
THE YID ASKED THE ANGEL WHY ARE THEY NOT LEARNING TOGETHER ?
THE ANGEL ANSWERED THAT IS PART OF THEIR GAN EDEN
THEY THINK THAT THEY ARE THE ONLY ONES.
THE YESHIVA WAS VERY SATMAR ORIENTATED.
THERE WAS A GOY-CLEANER THERE AND THEY CALLED HIM "ITCHE MEIR".
THE INTENTION WAS TO DEGRADE RABBI YITZCHOK MEIR LEVIN,

THE YID ASKED THE ANGEL WHY ARE THEY NOT LEARNING TOGETHER ?
THE ANGEL ANSWERED THAT IS PART OF THEIR GAN EDEN
THEY THINK THAT THEY ARE THE ONLY ONES.
WHAT IS OUR AIM IN LIFE
AS AN ORTHODOX FRUM JEW, MY AIMS IN LIFE ARE
TO BE NEAR TO G=D.
I DO THIS THROUGH LEARNING TORAH, KEEPING MITZVOS
AND I THINK ABOUT G=D, A LOT IN LIFE.
IF I SEE SOMEONE WHO DOES THIS MORE THAN I DO,I LOOK UP TO HIM OR HER
AS A LEADER IN YISROEL.
AFTER ADAM EATING FROM THE FORBIDDEN FRUIT,
GOOD AND BAD ARE MIXED UP IN A PERSON,
THERE CAN BE A PERSON WHO PRAYS VERY WELL BUT IS NOT TRUTHFUL IN MONEY MATTERS, EVEN RABBONIM AND RABBIS.
BUT THIS DOES NOT MAKE HIM NOT A RABBI OR ROV.
THIS IS A PROBLEM IN TO-DAY'S FRUM WORLD.
THERE ARE FEW PEOPLE, WHO HAVE PUT DOWN RULES WHO IS A FRUM JEW,AND WHO IS NOT,
SPECIALLY IN SATMAR THE MAIN POINT THERE IS BEING AGAINST THE STATE OF ISRAEL.
IN GUR IT IS WOMEN BEING COMPLETELY SEGREGATED FROM THE MEN,
IT DOES NOT MATTER HOW THEY GO DRESSED.
THIS POINT IS BETTER IN SATMAR AS THE DRESSING OF WOMEN AND ZNIOS IS BETTER,
THIS IS JUST AN EXAMPLE FOR YOU TO UNDERSTAND MY POINT.
I HAVE NO TIME TO GO INTO LITVISHER, BELZ ,VISNITZ AND LUBAVITCH.
THE POINT IS THAT THEIR GEDOLIM MADE TO HOLD THEIR CROWDS IN YIDDISKEIT.
TO-DAY WE HAVE BECOME A MIXED-UP CROWD.
EVERYBODY TRIES TO PUT THEIR WAY ( AS THAT IS CORRECT ) ON THE OTHER PERSON.
AND IF ANY GODOL WHO COMES FROM A DIFFERENT PLACE WERE DIFFERENT POINTS WERE IMPORTANT,
THEY DEMONSTRATE AGAINST HIM SHOUT ABUSE AT HIM ETC,ETC,
THIS COMES FROM A LACK OF EDUCATION THAT GERMAN JEWS AND HUNGARIAN JEWS POLISH JEWS ARE ALSO VERY FRUM JEWS AND HAVE A PLACE BY THE RIBONO SHEL OLAM.
A VERY CHOSHVER ROV TOLD ME ABOUT RABBI STEINMAN ,"AREN'T THEY SCARED FOR THEIR FAMILY AND THEMSELVES ?
RABBI STEINMAN IS A VERY HOLY MAN AND HE DOES NOT UNDERSTAND WHY PEOPLE ARE NOT SCARED TO CALL HIM NAMES
EVEN IF HE THINKS DIFFERENTLY FROM THE SATMAR REBBE?"
NOT LONG AGO SOMEONE INSULTED ME IN PUBLIC.
I HAVE LEARNED HARD HOW TO HEAR INSULTS AND NOT SAY A WORD.
A FEW WEEKS LATTER ONE OF THE PEOPLE HAD A VERY NASTY ACCIDENT.
THERE IS A G=D AND IT IS NOT A FREE WORLD
WHERE YOU THINK BECAUSE YOU ARE A SATMAR ,BELZ, GUR , ROV OR REBBE
YOU CAN DO AS YOU LIKE.
BRITIAN HAS THE LONG ARM OF THE LAW.
G=D'S ARM IS EVEN LONGER.
TO BE NEAR TO G=D.
I DO THIS THROUGH LEARNING TORAH, KEEPING MITZVOS
AND I THINK ABOUT G=D, A LOT IN LIFE.
IF I SEE SOMEONE WHO DOES THIS MORE THAN I DO,I LOOK UP TO HIM OR HER

MY LEARNING TORAH
THE MUSSAR SEFORIM SAY THAT IF YOU SEE THAT YOUR YETZER HORAH
PUTS A LOT OF EMPHASIS AND DISTURBS YOU ON DOING A CERTAIN MITZVAH.
YOU SHOULD KNOW THAT THIS MITZVAH HAS GREAT VALUE IN HEAVEN FOR YOU.
SOMEONE ONCE SAID TO ME: " NO WONDER YOU LEARN ,
YOU AND YOUR TWIN BROTHER HAVE A MAD DESIRE TO LEARN".
I TOLD HIM," WE PRAYED VERY HARD FOR THIS THAT WE SHOULD LOVE TORAH LEARNING AND WENT TO GEDOLEI YISROEL FOR BROCHOS."
WE DID NOT ALWAYS HAVE THIS AND WE PRAYED EVERY DAY IN OUR PRAYERS.
" HASHEM,OUR G=D SWEETEN THE WORDS OF YOUR TORAH IN OUR MOUTH "
THIS I ALSO THANK G=D PLANTED INTO MY CHILDREN.
HOW DO I KNOW THAT MY TORAH LEARNING HAS A GREAT VALUE IN HEAVEN ?
BECAUSE THERE ARE SO MANY PEOPLE SPECIALLY IN SATMAR
WHEN THEY WANT TO GET EVEN WITH YOU FOR THE TRUTHFUL TELEVISION PROGRAM
I MADE WHERE I JUST EXPLAINED TO THE NON-ORTHODOX JEWS WHAT THE DUTY OF A JEW IS.
HAD IT NOT BEEN FOR THE STUPID ALEX STROM FROM THE JEWISH TRIBUNE,
WRITING ABOUT IT , WANTING TO GET EVEN WITH ME ,
NON OF THE FRUMERS WOULD HAVE KNOWN ABOUT IT.
THE ONLY WAY PEOPLE TRY TO GET EVEN WITH ME IS TO BREAK MY TORAH SHIURIM.
THIS I PRAY TO G=D THEY WILL NOT BE ABLE TO DO.
MY TORAH MUST HAVE A GREAT PLACE IN HEAVEN
AND THAT IS MY TEST MAY G=D HELP ME.
PUTS A LOT OF EMPHASIS AND DISTURBS YOU ON DOING A CERTAIN MITZVAH.
YOU SHOULD KNOW THAT THIS MITZVAH HAS GREAT VALUE IN HEAVEN FOR YOU.

CHILLUL HASHEM
I WAS PLEASED TO READ TWO LETTERS 11 AUGUST 2011.
ONE IN THE JEWISH TRIBUNE BY MENASCHE SCHARF, AND THE SECOND ONE BY YITZCHOK KORNBLUH IN THE HAMODIA.
THESE TWO STORIES ARE THE REAL CHILLUL HASHEM ,IN OUR COMMUNITY.
NOT GABY LOCK WITH HIS DEAR WIFE, GOING ON TELEVISION EXPLAINING WHAT IS TRUE YIDDISHKEIT.
MR ALEX STROM DO YO U GET THE MESSAGE ? ?
ALSO MR YAKOV OSTRICHER OF SATMAR 26 C.C. ? ?
IN THE HAMODIA MR YITZCHOK KORNBLUH WRITES:
"I WAS SHOCKED AND SADDENED AS EVERYBODY ELSE WAS OF THE OCCURRENCE IN TOTTENHAM,NORTH LONDON ON SATURDAY NIGHT FOLLOWING THE DEATH OF A YOUNG MAN".
WHAT IS MORE DISTURBING IS THAT SOME MEMBERS OF OUR COMMUNITY WERE SEEN BY THE WORLD MEDIA, IN FULL CHASSIDIC REGALIA MILLING, AROUND ALMOST IN CARNIVAL MODE AMONGST THESE RIOTERS.
HAVE OUR PEOPLE TAKEN LEAVE OF THEIR SENSES ?? ? ? ?
WOMEN WERE SEEN WHEELING BABIES IN BUGGIES, WHERE ARE THE BRAINS OF THESE FAMILIES IN TURNING UP,
AT SUCH EVENTS, RUTHLESS THUGS WHO WOULD STOP AT NOTHING TO THRUST A KNIFE INTO AN INNOCENT AND UNCONNECTED BYSTANDER.
MENASCHE SCHARF WRITES IN THE JEWISH TRIBUNE:
HE SAW A YONG BOCHUR , MERELY THIRTEEN ,WAITING TO CATCH A LIFT TO GOLDERS GREEN FROM FINSBURY PARK OF ALL PLACES THE MORNING AFTER A SECOND NIGHT OF LOOTING AND RIOTS.
JUST WEEKS AFTER THE TERRIBLE "LEIBELE "ATROCITY AND THIS BOY IS LOOKING FOR A LIFT FROM STRANGERS.
"HOW COULD I EXPLAIN THE GRAVE CONSEQUENCES WITHOUT RUNNING THE RISK OF BEING LABELLED A RAVING LUNATIC FOR SUGGESTING TO A YIDDISHE MAMMA THAT SHE DOESN'T CARE ENOUGH FOR HER CHILD" .
MR KORNBLUH AND MR SCHARF, I SEE LOTS OF TIMES PARENTS WHO, WHEN THEY GET MARRIED AT SEVENTEEN NEVER UNDERSTOOD THAT BY EIGHTEEN THEY COULD BE A PARENT
AND ARE NOT READY TO LOOK AFTER THIS CHILD.
IF THE RABBONIM AND LAY LEADERS DO NOT OPEN THEIR EYES AND MOUTH WE WILL HAVE TRAGEDY AFTER TRAGEDY
CHASH VESHOLAM.
ONE IN THE JEWISH TRIBUNE BY MENASCHE SCHARF, AND THE SECOND ONE BY YITZCHOK KORNBLUH IN THE HAMODIA.

CHASH VESHOLAM.
COPYING OTHERS
ABOUT A HUNDRED YEARS AGO A MAN CAME TO A TOWN, ON HIS HORSE.
A PERSON CAME UP TO HIM AND TOLD HIM
NOT TO RIDE AROUND IN THIS TOWN ON A HORSE.
AS IN THIS TOWN EVERYBODY RIDES AROUND ON A BROOM STICK ,
AND THINKS IT IS A HORSE.
HE DID NOT KNOW WHAT TO DO.
SHOULD HE RIDE AROUND ON A BROOM STICK, LIKE THE REST OF THE TOWN ?
OR SHOULD HE RIDE AROUND ON HIS HORSE ?
IF HE RIDES AROUND ON A HORSE HE IS MAD BY THEM,
IF HE RIDES AROUND ON A BROOM STICK HE WILL BE MAD IN HIS OWN EYES.
THE QUESTION IS WHAT IS MORE IMPORTANT TO BE MAD IN YOUR EYES ,
OR BE MAD IN OTHER PEOPLE'S EYES ?
HE WENT TO ASK THE RABBI OF THE TOWN WHAT TO DO.
THE RABBI TOLD HIM TO DO LIKE THE REST OF THE TOWN ,
BUT YOU SHOULD NOT THINK THAT THIS BROOM STICK IS A HORSE ,YOU SHOULD KNOW THAT IT IS A BROOM STICK.
I HAVE NOT GOT THE PATIENCE TO EXPLAIN THIS LESSON OF LIFE MORE CLEARLY.

FROM THE PEN OF FRADEL BERGER
FRADEL BERGER WAS ILL FOR TWO YEARS BEFORE SHE WAS PLUCKED FROM OUR MIDST AT THE YOUNG AGE OF 53 (1929-1983).
AS SHE WAS DRIFTING INTO UNCONSCIOUSNESS, SHE SAID PLEASE PASS ON MY POEMS.
SHE FELT HASHEM'S PRESENCE AND GUIDING HAND AS IS EXPRESSED IN MANY OF HER POEMS.
L I F E
Life is a mixture
Of sunshine and rain
Laughter and teardrops
Pleasure and pain
Low tides and high tides
Triumphs, defeats
Losses and gains
But ALWAYS in ALL WAYS
Hashem is guiding and leading
And He alone knows
The things we're most needing
When he sends sorrow
Or some dreaded affliction
Be assured that it comes
With Hashem's benediction
And if we accept
That it's given with love
We'll be showered with blessings
From Hashem above

KIDDUSH HASHEM
ABOUT FIFTEEN YEARS AGO, I WAS FLYING FROM LONDON HEATHROW AIR PORT, BY BRITISH AIRWAYS TO TEL-AVIV.
WE FLEW ON A JUMBO-JET WHICH HAD TEN SEATS IN A ROW,
THREE THEN FOUR AND THREE AGAIN.
BEHIND ME IN THE ROW OF FOUR THERE WERE TWO COUPLES FROM HAIFA ISRAEL.
THEY HAD A BOOK SHOP IN HADAR, HAR CARMEL IN HAIFA .
THEIR FAMILY NAMES WERE "DERBAMDIGER",
A VERY FAMOUS NAME BY JEWISH PEOPLE "DERBAMDIGER" THE HOLY BERDICHOVER REBBE'S NAME.
AND THEN THEY GAVE OUT BRITISH AIRWAYS MEALS WHICH WERE NOT KOSHER.
YOU MUST UNDERSTAND THIS PLANE HAD OVER FOUR HUNDRED PASSENGERS. NOT ALL WERE JEWISH.
I WAS SITING IN THE ROW OF FOUR AND BEHIND IN THE ROW OF FOUR WERE SITTING THE TWO COUPLES DERBARMDIGER.
THEY OF COURSE DID NOT TAKE THE KEDASIA MEAL.
AND THEY ALSO DID NOT WANT THE FEDERATION MEALS.
THEY ASKED FOR THE BRITISH AIRWAYS MEALS WHICH CONTAINED HAM ( PIG ) ! ! !
I SAID TO HIM TO LET THEM EAT PIG WAS A CHILLUL HASHEM, TO STOP THEM,
IT DOES NOT MATTER HOW, WAS A KIDDUSH HASHEM.
MAKING A TOLLERANT AND UNDERSTANDING IMPRESSION AND LETTING THEM EAT PIG ( they have a right to their way in life)
IS A DOWN RIGHT CHILLUL HASHEM.
I EXPLAINED TO THE NON-SPEAKING HEBREW IN ENGLISH, AND THEN TO THE HEBREW SPEAKING PEOPLE IN HEBREW; "THERE IS KOSHER AVAILABLE THEY DO NOT HAVE TO EAT TREIF (PIG)".
YOU CAN NOT IMAGINE HOW THE NON ORTHODOX PEOPLE RAN UP TO THEM, HE IS RIGHT THERE IS KOSHER AVAILABLE, EAT KOSHER!
ONE OF THE COUPLES SHOUTED AT ME. "GO INTO THE ARMY" !
I SAID TO HIM; " YOU HAVE CHILDREN IN THE ARMY, THEY WILL DIE AND YOU WILL SHOUT AT G=D WHY DID THEY DIE, YOU KNOW WHY, BECAUSE YOU EAT PIG AND YOU DO NOT RESPECT G=D'S TORAH, WHY SHOULD G=D RESPECT YOU?
THIS IS CLEARLY WRITTEN IN THE TORAH.
AS SOON AS I SAID THIS THEY REFRAINED FROM EATING THE HAM.
WE FLEW ON A JUMBO-JET WHICH HAD TEN SEATS IN A ROW,
THREE THEN FOUR AND THREE AGAIN.
BEHIND ME IN THE ROW OF FOUR THERE WERE TWO COUPLES FROM HAIFA ISRAEL.
THEY HAD A BOOK SHOP IN HADAR, HAR CARMEL IN HAIFA .
THEIR FAMILY NAMES WERE "DERBAMDIGER",
A VERY FAMOUS NAME BY JEWISH PEOPLE "DERBAMDIGER" THE HOLY BERDICHOVER REBBE'S NAME.
WHEN THEY WERE DISTRIBUTING THE MEALS, THEY HAD 102 KEDASIA MEALS.
AND THEN THEY GAVE KOSHER MEALS FROM THE EL-AL KITCHEN IN HEATROW AIR PORT, WHICH WAS UNDER THE AUTHORITY OF THE FEDERATION.AND THEN THEY GAVE OUT BRITISH AIRWAYS MEALS WHICH WERE NOT KOSHER.
YOU MUST UNDERSTAND THIS PLANE HAD OVER FOUR HUNDRED PASSENGERS. NOT ALL WERE JEWISH.
I WAS SITING IN THE ROW OF FOUR AND BEHIND IN THE ROW OF FOUR WERE SITTING THE TWO COUPLES DERBARMDIGER.
THEY OF COURSE DID NOT TAKE THE KEDASIA MEAL.
AND THEY ALSO DID NOT WANT THE FEDERATION MEALS.
THEY ASKED FOR THE BRITISH AIRWAYS MEALS WHICH CONTAINED HAM ( PIG ) ! ! !
AS SOON AS I OBSERVED THAT, I TURNED AROUND TO THEM AND TOLD THEM, " I WILL NOT LET YOU EAT PIG."
A CHASSIDISHE MAN SITTING NEXT TO ME SAID," DON'T MAKE A CHILLUL HASHEM".I SAID TO HIM TO LET THEM EAT PIG WAS A CHILLUL HASHEM, TO STOP THEM,
IT DOES NOT MATTER HOW, WAS A KIDDUSH HASHEM.
I ALSO SAID TO HIM;
WE THINK WE HAVE TO BE LIKED BY EVERYONE IS A KIDDUSH HASHEM?MAKING A TOLLERANT AND UNDERSTANDING IMPRESSION AND LETTING THEM EAT PIG ( they have a right to their way in life)
IS A DOWN RIGHT CHILLUL HASHEM.
THE DERBARMDIGER COUPLE SAID TO ME IN YIDDISH; " WHAT CAN YOU DO" ? I SAID TO THEM " YOU WILL SEE WHAT I CAN DO".
I GOT UP ON MY SEAT AND STARTED SHOUTING; "PIG THESE JEWISH PEOPLE ARE ABOUT TO EAT PIG".I EXPLAINED TO THE NON-SPEAKING HEBREW IN ENGLISH, AND THEN TO THE HEBREW SPEAKING PEOPLE IN HEBREW; "THERE IS KOSHER AVAILABLE THEY DO NOT HAVE TO EAT TREIF (PIG)".
YOU CAN NOT IMAGINE HOW THE NON ORTHODOX PEOPLE RAN UP TO THEM, HE IS RIGHT THERE IS KOSHER AVAILABLE, EAT KOSHER!
ONE OF THE COUPLES SHOUTED AT ME. "GO INTO THE ARMY" !
I SAID TO HIM; " YOU HAVE CHILDREN IN THE ARMY, THEY WILL DIE AND YOU WILL SHOUT AT G=D WHY DID THEY DIE, YOU KNOW WHY, BECAUSE YOU EAT PIG AND YOU DO NOT RESPECT G=D'S TORAH, WHY SHOULD G=D RESPECT YOU?
THIS IS CLEARLY WRITTEN IN THE TORAH.
AS SOON AS I SAID THIS THEY REFRAINED FROM EATING THE HAM.
WE HAVE TO LEARN WHAT IS A CHILLUL HASHEM AND WHAT IS A KIDDUSH HASHEM.
