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.

A Nazi speech in Ramallah tells a much larger tale - JNS.org RABBI SCHWARTZ'S TERRIBLE JEWISH SOLDIER JOKES OF THE WEEK A general asks a Dudi his new recruit in the army . "Young soldier, what will you do if you see 20 soldiers coming to attack you?  Dudi answered "that I would take an Uzi and shoot them". The general asks him what if a tank is coming to kill you? I would take a rocket launcher and defend myself replied the young soldier. The general asks him what if you see tanks, terrorists and planes together? The soldier says, general, am I the only one in the army? Berel, Yankel and Moishe are about to be executed by firing squad. The sergeant in charge asks each one whether he wants a blindfold. "Yes," says Berel, in a resigned tone. "OK," says Yankel, in a quiet voice. "And what about you?" he enquires of Moishe. "No," he says, "I don't want your lousy blindfold," followed by a few choice curses. Yankel immediately leans over to him and whispers: "Listen, Moshe, take a blindfold. Don't make trouble." The commanding officer at the Russian military academy gave a lecture on Potential Problems and Military Strategy. At the end of the lecture, he asked if there were any questions. An officer stood up and asked, "Will there be a third world war? And will Russia take part in it?" The general answered both questions in the affirmative. Another officer asked, "Who will be the enemy?" The general replied, "All indications point to China ." Everyone in the audience was shocked. A third officer remarked, "General, we a nation of only 150 million, compared to the 1.5 billion Chinese. Can we win at all, or even survive?" The general answered, "Just think about this for a moment: In modern warfare, it is not the quantity of soldiers that matters but the quality of an army's capabilities. For example, in the Middle East we have had a few wars recently where 5 million Jews fought against 150 million Arabs, and Israel was always victorious." After a small pause, yet another officer from the back of the auditorium asked, "Do we have enough Jews???" During the Six-Day War, the enemies of Israel identified a hill of great strategic importance, and when they realized it was guarded by a lone Israeli soldier, they sent in a platoon to attack immediately. Thirty minutes later, the whole platoon had been captured by the lone Israeli. As they were being led away, their lieutenant remarked, "I gotta admit, you Israelis are tough." "You think I'm tough? You should meet my husband!" Deep in the desert. Mehmet, an Arab fighter (or militant, if you will) chases an Israeli soldier, let's call him Moshe, with an AK47 gun. Mehmet closes on Moshe and starts firing at him but misses. The chase continues through the desert, there's quite a lot of firing from Mehmet and quite a lot of bullet dodging from Moshe. At one point Mehmet's gun refuses to fire - Mehmet's out of ammunition. Moshe hears the clicking of the empty gun, turns triumphantly to Mehmet and says: "Out of bullets, huh? Wanna buy some?" Rabbi Landau was, as usual, standing near the shul exit shaking hands as his congregation left. But as Max was leaving, Rabbi Landau grabbed his hand, pulled him aside and said, "Max, I think you need to join the Army of God!" "But I'm already in God's Army, Rabbi," said Max. "So how come I don't see in shul except on Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur?" said Rabbi Landau. Max whispered, "I'm in the secret service." Berel was a new oleh who just enlisted in the army and after a few weeks was feeling kind of homesick and asked the Commanding Officer for a 3 day pass. The CO says, "Are you crazy? You just joined the Israeli army, and you already want a 3 day pass? You must do something spectacular for that recognition!" So the soldier comes back a day later in an Arab tank! The CO was so impressed, he asked, "How did you do it?" "Well, I jumped in a tank, and went toward the border with the Arabs. I approached the border, and saw an Arab tank. I put my white flag up, the Arab tank put his white flag up. I said to the Arab soldier, 'Do you want to get a 3 day pass?' So we exchanged tanks!"

Four 1,900-year-old Roman swords found in Judean Desert, likely from Bar Kochba revolt Apparently stolen by Jewish rebels, the incredibly well-preserved weapons are 'an extremely rare find, the likes of which have never been found in Israel' By MELANIE LIDMAN Four 1,900-year-old Roman swords found in Judean Desert, likely from Bar Kochba revolt | The Times of Israel The Portion of Vayeilaich The Numerical Value of the Letter "Kuf" is One Hundred Moses is about to complete his task of leading the Children of Israel. The time has come to transfer the leadership to his trusted disciple Joshua. G-d turns to Moses and instructs him to stand in front of the Tent of Meeting. The message that Moses hears is not a simple one: "Behold, you are about to] lie with your forefathers, and this nation will rise up and stray after the deities of the nations of the land" (Deuteronomy 31;16). The Temple, which measures 100 cubits (Tractate Midot), will be destroyed. Rebecca had already seen this in a prophecy: "And Rebecca said to Isaac "I am disgusted with my life" (Genesis 27;46). The letter "kuf" in the word "katzti" (disgusted) is written smaller than the other letters. The letter "kuf" in the word "vekam" (will rise up) is emphasized with additional crowns, alluding to the ultimate destruction of the Temple many years before its erection.

Five Fortified Ancient Cities May Be Part of King David's Lost Kingdom The ruins of five fortified cities outside of Jerusalem were allegedly part of the empire of King David, is the controversial claim of an Israeli archaeologist. In a new story, the archaeologist argues that they were created in the 10th century BC, 200 years earlier than previously thought. Using aerial imagery, the published paper showcases the casements of Khirbet Qeiyafa's city wall in order to argue that the five cities followed a similar design since they were created to be components in a united network. The city walls also served as dwellings or storage spaces, with the urban centers all featuring two parallel walls in the center, organized roads and connection to one singular kingdom. This discovery provides support for the theory that King David governed a large and intricate kingdom. The evidence for this hypothesis is based on years of meticulous examination of old archaeological publications by archaeologist Yosef Garfinkel from the Institute of Archaeology at Hebrew University. The academic paper has been published the Jerusalem Journal of Archaeology .
