Love Yehuda Lave Join my blog by sending me an email to YehudaLave@gmail.com The Three Musketeers at the Kotel The Three are Rabbi Yehuda Glick, famous temple mount activist, and former Israel Mk, and then Robert Weinger, the world's greatest shofar blower and seller of Shofars, and myself after we had gone to the 12 gates of the Temple Mount in 2020 to blow the shofar to ask G-d to heal the world from the Pandemic. It was a highlight to my experience in living in Israel and I put it on my blog each day to remember. The articles that I include each day are those that I find interesting, so I feel you will find them interesting as well. I don't always agree with all the points of each article but found them interesting or important to share with you, my readers, and friends. It is cathartic for me to share my thoughts and frustrations with you about life in general and in Israel. As a Rabbi, I try to teach and share the Torah of the G-d of Israel as a modern Orthodox Rabbi. I never intend to offend anyone but sometimes people are offended and I apologize in advance for any mistakes. The most important psychological principle I have learned is that once someone's mind is made up, they don't want to be bothered with the facts, so, like Rabbi Akiva, I drip water (Torah is compared to water) on their made-up minds and hope that some of what I have share sinks in. Love Rabbi Yehuda Lave.

Death of Lazarus Averbuch Lazarus "Jerome" Averbuch (1889–1908)[1] was a 19-year-old[2] Russian-born Jewish immigrant to Chicago who was shot and killed by Chicago Chief of Police George M. Shippy[3] on March 2, 1908.[4] The incident occurred during an era of public fear of foreign-born anarchists in the United States, following their involvement with the Haymarket affair in 1886.[5] The exact circumstances of the shooting remain contested, but Averbuch's death has inspired speculation, ideological arguments, and works of fiction.[6]ContentsBackgroundeditAverbuch is referred to most often as Lazarus Averbuch, but he was likely known as Harry or Jeremiah.[7] He was born in 1889 in Kishinev, in the Russian Empire (the present-day capital of the Republic of Moldova). He and his older sister, Olga Averbuch, survived the Kishinev pogrom.[8] Averbuch followed his sister to Chicago, Illinois, immigrating a year after her[9] and arriving in late 1907.[10] They lived in a small apartment in the Eastern European Jewish neighborhood on Chicago's Near West Side.[5] Averbuch worked as an egg packer on South Water Street in Chicago.[7] Death edit Police Captain George Shippy Early in the morning of Monday, March 2, 1908, Lazarus Averbuch visited the home[11] of George Shippy, Chicago's Chief of Police, in Lincoln Park.[9] Averbuch entered the residence at 9 AM,[12] shots were fired, and Averbuch was killed. According to Shippy, this was Averbuch's fourth visit in two days, making him a suspicious figure. When they encountered each other in Shippy's entryway, Shippy grabbed Averbuch by the arms, attempting to disable him. Averbuch then allegedly drew a knife, and wounded Shippy in the arm. Then, Averbuch drew a revolver and fired, striking Shippy's son, Harry, as he entered from upstairs[13] to investigate the noise. Shippy's driver and bodyguard, James Foley, entered the house and attempted to restrain Averbuch. Averbuch shot Foley in the hand before he was shot repeatedly by Foley and Shippy.[4] Newspapers reported that Averbuch, an anarchist, wanted to assassinate Shippy because Shippy shut down an anarchist demonstration.[1 Death of Lazarus Averbuch - Wikipedia Those we have lost Stories of civilians and soldiers killed since Hamas's onslaught on Israel on October 7, 2023 Every day you can look at another victim and send him/her prayers Those we have lost | The Times of Israel Categories Civilians IDF Israel Defense Forces soldiers and reservists Police officers Israel Police and Border Police officers First responders Local security team members, firefighters and medics Supernova festival Those who attended the Supernova or Psyduck festivals Foreigners Foreign workers, tourists and students Groucho and Chico Marx See you tomorrow bli neder We need Mashiach now!
