Other things are bal yeiraeh and bal yematzei! All the new things they say, it’s all vanity! Strengthen only Torah. That is the essence of Am Yisroel!
“There are those who travel to America and say to give… I don’t want to say what they say, It’s foolish, it’s nonsense….“…Only Torah! Don’t pay attention to anything else. In the merit of Torah study everything will be good, with the help of Hashem.”
Rav Landau called those who are trying to direct funds to other endeavors a “mazik gomur.”
“Yeshivos, kollelim….only that! What [others say] is just empty words!”
He added “You can publish in my name that [those who are engaged in other activities] are like a bor hamazik [a harmful pit], and their words are empty words! They ruin the essential things that all of Klal Yisroel needs! The Jewish world needs Torah and only Torah, nothing else! All other things are fantasies and foolishness!”(Matzav)

Day 76 and Hamas is still firing rockets. Hamas has no reason to a cease fire, they are doing well, and world opinion is in their favor. Time to admit that we need a new strategy.
ReplyDelete"showcasing the remarkable success of the Iron Dome system" = showcasing the remarkable Hashgachas Hashem on Klal Yisroel
ReplyDeleteMy thoughts exactly when I read it. Those words smack with kefira (a kfias tov)
DeleteR'DL shlita response is tachlis only if it goes hand in hand acc. with what RGR stated: Ul'rasha amar mah lecha l'saper chukai
ReplyDeleteThere are people in Eretz Yisroel who have cashed in enormously on this war.
ReplyDeleteAmericans, feeling guilty about not taking part, have been sending obscene amounts of money to organizations that nobody needs, wants, or accepts. They claim to be giving food or paraphernalia to soldiers, but they don't want or need the food, and people pocket all kinds of money along the way. Others give 'chizuk' and collect for it. And other such nonsense.
Be careful what you give to. A meshulach asking for money to marry off his child is probably the best option.
"... no Israelis have been harmed by fallen rockets or shrapnel, showcasing the remarkable success of the Iron Dome interception system."
ReplyDeleteAnd showcasing the shmira of the RBSH"O who looks over his children like a loving Father
Exactly!
