An Analysis of Cyclone HaiYan: The Hey in Hashem's Name

Haiyan apparently is the strongest cyclone to make landfall at the peak of its strength in recorded world history.  It first hit the Philippines on Thursday night/Friday morning, November 7th and 8th (5th of Kislev 5774) with 195 mph sustained winds.  The 2nd most powerful storm to make landfall was Hurricane Camille with sustained winds of 190 mph hit directly the Mississippi Gulf coastline in 1969.  The powerful leading edge of that storm extended all the way to Panama City, Florida since all cyclones in the northern hemisphere turn counterclockwise.  In the Southern Hemisphere they spin clockwise.  Yet, Camille's storm surge was so powerful that it wrecked utter devastation from where the eye hit in Mississippi all the way past Mobile Bay down the Florida panhandle past Panama City.  Back in 1978 I went to visit someone in Destin, Florida, and the devastation from nine years earlier was still all over the place.  We drove to Pensacola, and the closer we got to Pensacola, the more ghastly the devastation.  In short, Katrina in 2005 may have done more damage because its eye hit New Orleans, but Camille was far more powerful a storm.  Now a cyclone even more powerful than Camille has hit the Philippines, and the loss of life is devastating.  Estimates now are that approximately 10,000 people are dead, and up to 800,000 people are still missing (which simply means that the death toll will likely go even higher).  People are walking around in a daze after losing everything.  It is the damage that would have happened if Camille had hit downtown New Orleans in 1969, as a weaker Hurr. Katrina did after the Evacuation from Gush Katif in 2005.  This blog will not attempt to place fault for the immense tragedy that has just unfolded.  It is an act of G-d, and we will leave it at that.  The good people of the Philippines did NOT deserve the likes of this anymore than far more deserving nations (of a natural disaster of this magnitude) to have hit them.  Yet, this is a horrific Act of G-d at the End of Days, and it needs a certain analysis as to what is going on.  In the meantime, whatever help and assistance can be delivered to this Central Philippines disaster of Biblical proportions should obviously be given and offered.

As a prelude to saying anything else, I wish for readers to read the previous Mystical Paths post that was made months ago when the first set of 26 bloodthirsty murderous prisoner releases was offered up here.  Akiva of MPaths named the post originally.  So that name sticks.  Yet, for the purpose of review perhaps it should be renamed "The Four Cups of Wrath" or "The Grapes of Wrath"....  Well that name is already in use.  So let us stick with "The Four Cups of Wrath".   The Grapes of Wrath might be appropriate too because of allusion to those events in Yishayahu 63 and in Yoel 4: 12-13 which are so so close in the near future.  Keep in mind that the first cup of wrath was directed against Egypt since the Yud in HaShem's Name was manifest in Egypt in ancient times through the Ten Plagues.  Even though each prisoner release includes 26 prisoners, a reference to the entire Name of Yud Key Vav Key, each cup of wrath is related to one of those letters.  So less than two weeks ago we had 26 bloodthirsty savages release number 2 which would indicate that a Cup of Wrath with the Hey and the previous Yud in HaShem's Name would be manifest soon thereafter.  Last Thursday night/ Friday morning, about one week after the 2nd prisoner release it occurred.  Hurricane HaiYan made landfall. For modern spelling in Hebrew of all foreign words we defer to Sheldon Adelson's Yisrael HaYom newspaper because of his keen sense, from a semi-secular perspective, of right and wrong when it comes to right and wrong with regards to Israel and the rest of the world.  He sponsored Newt Gingrich's most recent presidential run during which for the first time ever the world learned that the "Palestinians" are an invented people.  No one in the Republican Primary campaign debated Gingrich on that fact.  The only challenge to that was from Mitt Romney arguing that it would not help Netanyahu in Pieces negotiations with the invented people if the Palestinians themselves were reminded of that Truth.  So in the Republican Primaries, Truth in deed as represented by Rick St. Iram and truth in word as represented by Newt Gingrich lost to Beauty and looking Presidential as represented by Mitt Romney, and Romney was doomed to failure.  But Sheldon and Newt by that simple statement of the Truth earned themselves a Piece of Peace in Olam HaBa.  So on issues of how to spell foreign words, this blog defers to Sheldon Adelson.  Looking at Yisrael HaYom today, I see that HaiYan should be spelled Hey Aleph Yud Aleph Nun sofit.  The Hey and the Yud are there for all to see.  So in this cyclone we see the manifestation of the first two letters in HaShem's Name with primacy given to the Hey in His Name.  In addition to this, remember during the Exodus from Egypt, the Yud was the Finger of G-d in Egypt, but the Hey was the five times multiplier effect at the Reeds Sea (The Yam Suf).  So while the Yud in this particular case has been manifest in Egypt right after the first 26 bloodthirsty savages release, the Hey and the preceding Yud has been manifest at the Sea in this most recent devastating cyclone.

For those who are wondering about when does Edom itself get whacked, the answer should be obvious.  Previously on multiple occasions this blog has pointed out that

1. Mashiach Ben Yosef is manifest by the  3rd cup of wine at the Pesach Seder, the Vav in HaShem's Name  and

2. Mashiach Ben Yosef will destroy Edom's supremacy in the world.

So look for big things to happen before and immediately after the 3rd scheduled prisoner release.  As the Vav is being attached to the Yud and the Hey in HaShem's Name, look for a swipe against wicked Edom in the world in close association with the 3rd release of 26 murderers scheduled for 2 months from now.  As the Vav is being added to His Name, look at the Yahoo (Yud Hey Vav) in the Prime Minister's Office to see if he continues to remain a changed man.

more later......

Welcome Back Avigdor

Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman was acquitted today of the latest round of trumped up criminal charges against him.  Our evil garbage collector parading as Attorney General @#$% Weinstein yemach shmo will surely follow up these charges with another slew of charges until he ends Avigdor's career.  Here is Avigdor davening at the Kotel thanking HaShem for his yeshu'ot and nechamot.    I can't bring myself to attach Weinstein's name yemach shmo to his holy first name which just by attaching himself to that name, he besmirches the holy character of that name.  But until the next slew of persecutions from the Left, Avigdor is back.  In many positive ways, his relationship with Bibi is kenegdo.  Bibi speaks with forked tongue for good and for ill.  He is hated by Obama and Sarkozy.  But his word is mud with the straight arrows on the Right too.  His word simply can't be trusted as a signal for what he truly believes.  Avigdor speaks what he believes, and he does not check the weather vein to see if the world will approve of what he has to say.  He is the most breathtakingly honest Diplomat in modern Jewish history.  How a man who means what he says and says what he means can have such a positive working relationship with Bibi defies explanation.  But Bibi held the Foreign Ministry position for Avigdor for a reason.  Perhaps now we will find out why at this critical time when someone like Avigdor could potentially be breathtakingly honest to stick it to a dying world.

Sneak Preview: We Are All Tzo'ar: The 52nd year of Accountability for Our Sins

Bibi is Melekh Bela (King of Bela), the only one of the five cities of the plain whose king is NOT named in the four kings against the five kings in Parshat Lech Lecha. It screams out for an explanation. Bela also happened to be the same name as the son of Binyamin ben Ya'akov, and Bela, the city, was renamed Tzo'ar. It was not destroyed when S'dom was destroyed because it only had 51 years of accountability for its sins (See Rashi).  So it was one year younger (tza'ir) than the other four cities of the plain. So think that Bibi (Binyamin) is not only Melekh Bela but Av Bela. The other cities had a full 52 years of accountability for its sins. Bibi is now 64 years old. The first 13 years of his life he was NOT accountable for his sins. So this entire year until the 28th of Tishrei 5775, he is like Bela with only 51 years of accountability for its sins. As with the 4 kings against the 5 kings, Tidal Melekh Goyim (Obama) and Chedarla'omer Melekh Eilam (Iran or Persia) will likely be attacking us in the 14th year since we became enslaved by the world during the Al Aksa Intifada...if they indeed come this Pesach.  See here.   

But while their attack may destroy most of the rest of the world (that is those who attack us), we will survive...like Tzo'ar did. This is the last thing that Moshe Rabbeinu saw at the end of his life after he saw the evacuation from Kiryat Dekalya (Newe' Dekalim) aka the City of Date Palms and then he saw Tzo'ar (Deut. 34:3 along with the Targum Yonatan ben Uziel). Bibi was born at the close of the War of Independence. During that war we accrued NO sins as opposed to what the entire world thinks. We only started sinning against each other from the year that the war was over starting in 5710 (Fall of 1949), just like Bibi himself who was born near the end of Tishrei 5710 and as pointed out above is now 64 years old. Cutting off the peyot of Teimani Jews descending from their aircraft qualifies as disgusting behavior for instance. For the first 13 years we were not accountable through 5722 (Fall of 1962). We were then accountable for the next 51 years like Tzoar. Only in this year before we are accountable for a full 52 years are we comparable to Tzo'ar through Sukkot of 5775. This argues strongly for an attempt to divide Yerushalayim this year.

We are all Tzo'ar. The post, bli neder, will be written soon.

The Passing of Another Tzaddik

With a heavy heart I have to inform everyone of the passing of HaRav Dr. Marvin (Moshe Shlomo) Antelman, zt"l from heart diseease.  He was best known for his "To Eliminate the Opiate" series of books.  He was also on the Who's Who list of American Chemists and blazed trails in the field of Chemistry.  He was one of those assigned by Vendyl Jones to use mass spectrometry to devise the component parts of the Temple incense that Dr. Jones found in Qumran.  It is worth noting that Rav Ovadia Yosef zt"l had another team of Chemists verify Dr. Antelman's results.  Validate and independently verify is a well known scientific technique.  And for sure they found most of the component parts to the ketoret even after 2000 years of degradation of the original mixture.  Dr. Antelman lived here in Kochav Yakov for the last several years of his life.

His funeral is in Beit Shemesh or near it in the Eretz Chaim Cemetery at 5:30 pm today the 13th of October 2013 (9th of MarCheshvan).  The cemetery is just south of the Eshta'ol junction on Hwy 38 on the way to Beit Shemesh before reaching the Har Tuv Industrial Park.

The Prime Minister Becomes a Man

It is a day of great simcha amongst the nation of Am Yisrael.  Our PM Binyamin Netanyahu, the gilgul or bechinah of Shaul HaMelekh just became a man tonight.  G-d help us that it will last and that he won't wimp out when the entire world comes against us.  He will need much emunah and bitachon that HaShem will redeem us from the wicked world.  Over 13 years after the beginning of the Al Aksa Intifada, the Prime Minister of Israel just declared our independence from the rest of the world and their freaking opinion.  Here is the latest Bar Ilan speech in the form of a story on Arutz 7:  PM becomes a Man and not simply the face of a dog.  Mark this day on your calendar as a day of remembrance:  3rd of MarCheshvan 5774.  It is a day of our independence from the false and evil beliefs of this world of lies.  It is a day where our elected leader decided that it no longer mattered what the opinion of Mankind was or even what the opinion of the American President is.  Holy, holy, holy is the L-rd of Hosts, the entire world is filled with his Glory.  What a great day for Klal Yisrael.  And for yours truly after ten years of living under the oppression of leadership that was in constant fear of world public opinion and other related decrepit gods, I can go to bed with a big smile on my face for crossing a Rubicon or better yet a Gichon Spring of sorts.  May we never look back to these lowly days of worshiping this ugly avodah zarah.  Dear L-rd, I pray that I have not spoken too soon.  Amein.

Sukkath David HaNofaleth? (The Fallen Sukkah of King David?)

No time to write a major post, just a brief statement.

IF this man is correct about his timing, DURING Sukkot 5775, this coming Shmittah year, the Mt. of Olives will split in two (half going to the north and half going to the south and the former Intercontinental Hotel falling right through the crack in the middle!):

Moshe Feiglin :  Please check this man's yichus to be making such a claim!!  If he is correct, his ascendancy will likely take a year longer than he thinks it will.  From Sukkot 5775 until Yom Kippur 5776, there will be a year long recompense for the cause of Tzion against the unrighteous nations of the world for the horror show that they are trying to re-create here in Eretz Yisrael as if their historic horror show against the Jewish people were not enough.

Chag Sameach.  Happy Shmini Atzereth, The 8th Day of Cessation 5774.

Sorry for the Overflow: Added 1.2 meters to My Sukkah

I am building the walls to an additional 7 day temporary house this year.  My wife wanted an extra long sukkah.  Yes, G-d willing it will be covered with S'chach, but it has been a real adventure.  We brought our walls from the US on our lift over 10 years ago.  Now I am using all the amazing wood even from a crate that was part of our lift.

This is the overflow for now.  Serious posting will have to wait until Chol HaMo'ed.  I am aware of the "terrorist" attack in the United States at the Wash. D.C. Naval Yard.  12 are dead.  I never mention the perpetrators amongst the dead.  If there is a 2nd gunman still at large, then this was a well-planned coordinated operation which makes it a terror attack.  For what purpose, who knows at this time.

A Shot Across the Bow

This is a short post, but is needed to continue the subject matter of the previous post.  This week's parsha means "We are standing here today."  Every time this parsha comes up every year, we know within one week we will be passing before HaShem to be judged for the coming year like sheep passing underneath a shepherd's staff.  It is that time of year again.  This Shabbat begins Creation Week with the First Day of Creation on the 25th of Elul.  It is also Syrian War week, no matter what a "Shot Across the Bow" might really mean.  You decide for yourself.  http://www.cbsnews.com/video/watch/?id=50153906n .

From me to you.  LeShana Tovah ve Metukah.  Watch out for rapid change after this retaliation for chemical weapons use begins if Russia, China, or Iran interprets this "shot across the bow" in a way that brings back a sharp response for the disparate reasons for why they support Assad.  I am sorry, for the shortness of this post.  busy preparing for Rosh HaShanah and Armageddon at the same time.

266 Days and Counting

Well let us just review.  Back on the 15th of Kislev 5773 (29th of November 2012), the UN Gen. Assembly voted to establish Palestine as a nation with observer status at the United Nations.  The vote was 138 to 9, and it called for Palestine to have its capital in what the UN calls Occupied East Jerusalem or Al Quds depending upon whether you are a Xtian, pagan, Communist, or Muslim.  It was noted by Jewish End of Days at the time that the Talmud Yerushalami when discussing the names for Mashiach asks what do the names Tzemach and Menachem have in common?  They both have the gematriah of 138.  Also a quorum of ten nations did not vote against the division of Jerusalem/ Al Quds.  So there were not ten righteous nations to be found in all the earth.  So the official nine months began.

So what were the causes for delay in the nine months?  Why did it not begin on Tisha B'Av 5772 60 days after the Flame virus had been spotted in the cyber-rakia?  So many bloggers and Geulah websites were focused on Tisha B'Av 5772, not just this one.  And what happened is that the Syrian Civil War blew up almost four-fold with over 5000 people being killed every month since Tisha B'Av 5772.  Yet, the nations of the world stood by and watched.  The answer is two fold for the delay.

1. After Hurricane Sandy, Jews in America needed a full summer to make Aliyah.  The best time to make Aliyah for families with children is during the summer.  It is very difficult to pull up stakes during the middle of a school year.  So HaShem had mercy on American Jews by giving them a full summer to make Aliyah after Sandy and the re-election of Obama which came in large part as a direct result of the hurricane and how presidential he looked.  The once in a 300 year storm should have been the boot to kick Jews who are awake out of the coming h-ll hole.  The pyramids of sand from Sandy's cleanup in Far Rockaway were a nice Divine touch.  Yet, when America sealed its fate by re-electing the Man of Chaos, there should have been no question in any sane person's mind that America would soon die.  Chareidi schools in Israel have been in session since the 1st of Elul.  And the Govt. schools officially begin next Tuesday, the 21st of Elul.  At least that summer Aliyah moment time is now up.

2.  Because our collective merit for Geulah is the Shoah and the 6 x 300 year cycles of Churban that preceded it for a total of 7 cycles of Churban, we need to be at least 72 years (from Alot HaShachar to sunrise) after the beginning of the massacre of Jews during the Shoah along with having 6 million Jews in Israel including long term yeshivah students here on tourist Visas.  Prior to the invasion of the Soviet Union, Jews were either worked to death in hard labor camps or were crowded into various Polish and other East European ghettos.  The official date for the beginning of the Final Solution was the 2nd of Shevat 5702 with the Wannsee Conference, but the large scale massacres of Jews began in late June 1941 with the invasion of Belarus and basically the entire Soviet border.  It got so bad so quickly the the Massacre at Babi Yar was already on the 8th of Tishrei 5702 just before Yom Kippur.  So we are now in the zone to be redeemed in the merit of what would be the worst part of the Shoah since the worst injury of the galut was at Alot HaShachar.  And Ya'akov was healed from his hip wound at sunrise by the Face of G-d.

So let us quickly recap what has been discussed in the extensive comment section of this blog.  According to the Talmud in Niddah, there is a Torah from Sinai that the "official" length of pregnancy is 271 days where 266 days are exactly nine Hebrew months.  So 271 days are nine months and five days.  The Talmud tells us that one of the reasons for this is because HeRaYON (pregnancy) has the gematriah of 271.  Ok that is fair enough.  The 271st day happens to be the 21st of Elul.  Now there is a perturbation in the calendar this year.  Hillel HaSheini did not want Yom Kippur to fall out on Motzei Shabbat.  So he shortened the month of Kislev 5773 to 29 days when it most often has 30 days.  This moved up every day of the year following the 29th of Kislev by one day and placed all the moladim (births of the New Moons) on Rosh Chodesh itself before the moon could be seen that following evening. THIS NEVER HAPPENED IN ANCIENT TIMES!  In ancient times it was always assumed that Rosh Chodesh could not begin until at least 6 hours after the molad when the moon might be seen that following evening.  As a matter of fact the Talmud in Rosh HaShanah discusses an example when Yom Kippur was set to fall on Motzei Shabbat, and Beit Din decided to add a 30th day to Elul just so that vegetables would not spoil by sitting around for two days.  So the decision by Beit Din was to delay Rosh HaShana until Friday night pushing off Yom Kippur until Sunday night even though the moon could be seen on Thursday night prior to Rosh HaShana.  So Beit Din often used its power to extend a month by one day from 29 to 30 days, but it never used its power to shorten a month by a day so that the molad would actually fall on the first day of the next month.  Yet, we follow the calendar of Hillel HaSheini, and I am not going to start telling people to commemorate festivals one day later.   Yet, is should be pointed out that the 271st day should be the 20th of Elul because the 21st of Elul this year should be the 20th of Elul as it would be in almost every other year.

This is only important because of the following statement in Medrash Sefer Eliyahu in the sidebar to this blog:

 On the twentieth (day) of Ellul, the Messiah will come: his name is Yinnōn.  On that same day Gabriel will descend (and) from the ninth to the tenth hour will destroy from the world ninety-two thousand people.

Because of the exactness of this prophesy in a medrash which is already incredibly accurate such as predicting Operations Moses and Joshua, the first rescue of Ethiopian Jewry to the very day and predicting the last Prime Minister's name from the Erev Rav at the End of Days (TRMLO).  Now no year is given for the above statement.  So we are simply declaring a WATCH for two days next week, the 20th and the 21st of Elul, next Monday and Tuesday.  If it happens, we will surely know about it.  But please don't say that I am predicting anything.  It is just a WATCH notice....with our kids in Israel safely back in school or at school in Israel for the first time.  Welcome to all of you who correctly interpreted the message of Hurricane Sandy and Obama's subsequent re-election.

UPDATE:  I just linked to the Jewish End of Days post which speaks about the UN vote mentioned above.

Temporary Overflow Post on the Previous Post about the Nine Months

I need to open up a new post on the previous post because of the 200 comment limit.  Please comment on this post in order to comment on the previous post.  Bli neder, by Monday afternoon I will have time to write a new post.  I want to comment on Daniel Greenfield's (Sultan Knish's) excellent article about the Judenrat ghetto government that Shaul HaMelekh has agreed to here in order to kick the can down the road by avoiding really tough decisions about survival and thriving in a Geulah environment.  He is just not up to the task, especially if there is no broken reed amongst the world powers to lean on.  As mentioned in the comments section of the previous post,  I will write a new post....before the release of 26 murderers (blood-thirsty savages) by the State of Israel's Judenrat in order to keep Obama and his bloodthirsty henchman, Lurch, the Ba'al Kerry happy.  There are 3 other releases of 26 murderers planned at regular intervals over the next nine months.

Sorry Shaul, there is no one amongst the five permanent members of the UN Security Council who cares whether we live, die, or thrive.  It never was their business anyway.  The Cold War kept us in good stead with the West until 1990 (5750).  We have had 23 years to learn to stand on our own with G-d's help, but as usual we will need a crash course in true independence.  Also 30 standing ovations before a joint session of the US Congress won't help you either because with the advice of Alexander Hamilton, the US Congress has very little to say about the day to day running of US foreign policy anyway according to the US Constitution.  They can declare war if the President thinks it is necessary to seek Congressional approval for an action without going first to the UNSC, but this President especially prefers the UNSC over the US Congress.  If the State Dept. or the President signs a treaty which rarely happens anymore anyway, 2/3rds of the Senate needs to approve it.  And the Congress can vote to defund something.  The power of the purse is really the only foreign policy power that the US Congress has left.  So having good friends in Congress will not help Israel in any substantial way anyway.  And there is no time left to kick the can.  Obama knows that in order to stay on as President for his 3rd, 4th, and 5th terms, he has to declare martial law before 2016.  So in 2015 he will be busy "handling" the results of destroying his own domestic economy.  So his goal for the end of 2014 is to divide Jerusalem and to make Yesha Judenrein as the world disintegrates all around us.  There is no time left to kick the can.  It is Gog UMagog now or bust.  The last thing that we need right now is a can-kicker.  And speaking like Winston Churchill is great, but it is meaningless if you are going to behave like Chamberlain.

Everyone Seems to Have a Nine Month Program!! (G-d's or Bibi's?)

I could not help but read this week's parsha from Shabbat, and then took a look at the three trees out the porch glass door.  We have three of the five tree fruit species mentioned in the parsha.  We have a fig tree with about 500 figs about to become ripe, and the species of fig tree that we have does not get worms as long as the figs do not crack open.  We have a pomegranate tree with about 50 pomegranates on it which will ripen about two weeks before Rosh HaShana this year.  We also have an olive tree which will ripen sometime during Cheshvan, late Cheshvan this coming year 5774.  All the trees have the Din of the 5th year of the Shmittah cycle.  The are obligated in Terumah Gedolah and Terumat Ma'aser (a full 1% or 10% of 10%) to a Kohen.  They are of course obligated in a full ma'aser (10%) to a Levi, and Ma'aser Sheini (10%) of what is left to be eaten in Jerusalem if there were a Temple there.  Next year, the 6th year, is a Ma'aser Ani year (10% to the poor).  Then comes Shmittah when the trees belongs to everyone in our neighborhood.  Actually it belongs to G-d in the 7th year, but everyone in the neighborhood comes to eat from it.  The odd thing about the olive tree in 5775 is that the fruit in Cheshvan 5775 will still be Ma'aser Ani fruit since the olives will basically be full size by Rosh HaShana of the Shmittah year.  So for the olive tree, the crop of Cheshvan 5776 will be Shmittah fruit.  I have lived here for ten years now.  So I am growing accustomed to the routine around here.  And our well used nusach for tithing and terumah (raising) to the Kohen have become a regular staple around here.  Baruch HaShem.

Now I look at the news and I see that there seems to be a battle setting up this week starting tomorrow.  Bibi in his long exhaustive letter to the general public about why it is ok to release over 100 blood thirsty savages from our jails seems to think that the nine months begins either tomorrow or when negotiations begin this coming Tuesday with the invented people. Bibi's Nine Month Program  Take a look for yourself.  Besides all the lame excuses, he is pointed to tell us that negotiations will last nine months.  How quaint.

Danny Danon seems to bitterly disagree.  He thinks that the nine months should end by within the next month when the world gets really angry at us for not committing suicide.  Here is Danny Danon's opinion.
Hopefully, we pray, G-d's Nine Month Program

Danny is now the CEO of the Likud Party, and Michael Kleiner is now the Chief Internal Judge.  My sense is that all Hell, literally, will break loose this week no matter how this vote goes.  Bibi is no Sharon.  Maybe 10 MKs at most will remain with him in Likud/ Beiteinu if he heads down the road of folly, and the entire Likud internal apparatus is arrayed against him too.  He does not have an Omri Sharon controlling the Likud Party operations like his predecessor.  May the brave man win.  That would be Danny, not Mr. Linguine Spine.  He, King Shaul, has one out.  Make releasing Yehonatan Pollard a pre-condition to releasing murderers from Israeli jails.

I should point out for those who have not been keeping track on this blog.  According to the Gemorrah Niddah 38, the length of pregnancy is 271 days because the gematriah of HaRaYON equals 271.  The UN vote for Palestine 138-9 passed on the 15th of Kislev (November 29, 2012).  The 271 days are up either on the 20th or 21st of Elul, an auspicious date that is mentioned in Medrash Sefer Eliyahu in the sidebar of this blog for Mashiach to come.  And his name will be Yinon.

Episode 5: The Islamicists Fight Back

Well you all thought that the chaos was over yesterday, didn't you?  The coup d'etat took place on July 3rd. A Western jerk named El Baradai who once said that the Iranians had no intentions of making nuclear weapons was named interim leader of the "democratic and moderate" forces who of course, they say, are in the majority in Egypt.  Suddenly the 65% who a year and a half ago voted for an Islamicist parliament have showed up in Tahrir Square (we are talking millions) today, and they are mad as heck.  I doubt that this Egypt coup will be controlled by the Egyptian military no matter what the Powers at Be have in mind.  Happy Fourth of July...Egypt.  LIVE FEED

UPDATE:  For whatever reason, the live feed stopped before midnight while the protest was still going strong.  Here is an article to chew on until after Shabbat.  Shabbat Shalom.

Melachim Aleph (Kings I) 19:11
Klipah 1: And behold, HaShem was passing, and a great powerful wind, smassing moutnaisn and breaking rocks, went before Hashem.  "HaShem is not in the wind!"  (Eliyahu was told).

Klipah 2: After the wind came an earthquake!  "HaShem is not in the earthquake."

Klipah 3: After the earthquake came a fire!  "HaShem is not in the fire."

After the fire came a still, thin (barely audible) sound.  (HaShem's light was in the barely audible sound.  Some say this is klipah Noga and can be uplifted to Qedushah.  So it does not matter how much noise Islam can produce in the world at this present time.  It is all leading to destruction.  

The Day the Music Died: Bye Bye Miss American Pie

According to the Talmud in Chulin 92, there are three mitzvot that the nations of the world accepted on themselves basically in order not to really anger G-d to the point where they will lose the merit of previous generations.  They vowed to never grant marriage contracts to homosexuals, to never weigh out and sell human flesh in the marketplace, and to show respect for the Torah.  America just lost that merit of previous generations today.  It stands before HaQodesh Baruch Hu as a corpse.  The Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) which defined marriage as between one man and one wife was overturned in a 5 to 4 decision.  And the really really sad part is that 3 of the 5 Justices on the High Ct. in the US that voted to overturn that law of the US Congress (as being unconstitutional) are...Jews.  Sorry, America, I am ashamed of these folks today.  To Stephen Breyer, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, and Elana Kagan, I have to ask why?  Why would you consider making your host country a corpse?  Do you really think that the Creator of the Universe is not taking notice?  Are you that cavalier to endanger the lives of American Jews when the country has its Divine bracha completely removed and when Americans start looking around for a scapegoat?  Do you think that righteous G-d fearing gentiles are not in tears over watching the Jewish community in the United States destroy what was their blessed country from within??  Do you think for one minute that they will ignore that 3 out of the 5 Justices that signed America's death warrant are people with Jewish mothers?  Oy mah haya lanu!!

This short post will be updated later, bli neder.

One actual verse and the chorus from Don McClean's Bye Bye Miss American Pie:

Oh, and as I watched him on the stage
My hands were clenched in fists of rage.
No angel born in hell
Could break that satan's spell.
And as the flames climbed high into the night
To light the sacrificial rite,
I saw satan laughing with delight
The day the music died

He was singing,
"bye-bye, miss american pie."
Drove my chevy to the levee,
But the levee was dry.
Them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
And singin', "this'll be the day that I die.
"this'll be the day that I die."

Dear G-d America, what have you done to yourself?

Zot Chukat HaTorah: This is a Decree of the Torah, And Now It Begins

In 1242 in the streets of Paris, France on the Friday before Parshat Chukat, 24 cartloads of Talmuds were burnt in a wild conflagration of flames decreed by one of the 365 Principle Saints of the Roman Catholic Church.  His name was Louis IXth, King of France also known as St. Louis.  Forty days earlier on the exact same spot at the urging of the Jews of France, copies of the RaMBaM's works Sefer HaMada (The Book of Science) and Guide for the Perplexed (Moreh Nevuchim) were burnt.  Apparently the Jews of 13th Century France had a serious problem with the confluence between Torah and Science and Aristotelian logic being used to prove the existence of G-d.  The Rambam (Moshe Maimonides) was known in both spheres to the consternation of many.  So they had the Catholic Church burn his books.  Forty days later on Erev Shabbat Parshat Chukat, all the Talmuds in France with rare hand-written Tosefot in the margins were burned on the exact same spot.  So for burning the books of the Rambam, the greatest logical sage and codifier of Jewish Law since Moshe Rabbeinu, G-d looked down from Heaven and said Zot Chukat haTorah, and the Jewish community of France was destroyed for hundreds of years without one drop of blood being spilled.  You see, it was only the Talmud that was burned that day.  Read Kinah 41 from your Tisha B'Av Machzor.  I did it several times sitting in the shadow of the St. Louis Art Museum at the same spot that Scott Joplin played the "The Cascades" on the promenade for the 1904 Worlds Fair.  (Some say that he only performed on The Pike at the Worlds Fair because he was a black man.  I will have to check with the MO Historical Society.  But the song "The Cascades" was about the waterfall that flowed from where the statue of St. Louis sits today.)  Right next to the 110 year old promenade, there is a statue to the Talmud burner himself, sitting on a horse sitting in front of the Art Museum....A fitting climax to a dying city.  Before the city (St. Louis) built that statue of the Talmud burner whose name it bears, it knew no pitfalls.  From the moment that that statue graced the the 1904 World's fairgrounds of Forest Park, it was downhill from there.  Such is the fate of those who curse G-d's chosen and burn His precious library of books.  It is kind of funny how the Catholic University in town, St. Louis University, has a Talmudic Law section in their School of Law.  jokes on us I guess, or Louis the IXth is turning over in his grave.

So on this very day, it seems to have begun.  The United States has now decided that Assad has used poison sarin nerve gas weeks after it was already proven.  But the Obama Administration wracked with scandals needs a foreign war to distract our attention.  Is it a wag the dog scenario in the generation whose face is a dog??  Considering that Obama is being cajoled by Billy "bark bark" Clinton, perhaps this is the case.  (I believe that "zu billen" is to bark in Yiddish.  Please confirm that one.)  So here it is:

Zot Chukat HaTorah

So it will start with a no fly zone over Southern Syria 25 miles deep.  How will the Russians respond?  How will Persia and Hezbollah respond?  Again we shall see.

The Hindenburg Just Blew a Gasket

This morning after davening, I casually looked at the various market data for a few minutes.  And my eyes almost popped out of its sockets.  The Nikkei 225 Average in Japan dropped a whopping 6.35% overnight.  This is an especially precipitous drop considering that a DOW Industrial Average drop of over 2.5% is considered carnage in the American market.  To be honest, I am not a stock market whiz.  To be a whiz in the market, one has to master the art of the bandwagon of idiots effect which causes the masses to follow their instincts into this lying market today.  In short one has to be brilliant in the area of how idiots think.  And there are many brilliant people like Warren Buffet who have mastered this area of social science.

But there is something called the Hindenburg Omen, and this time it is for real.  Here are two articles on this Omen Here and Here .  I realize that we have had false starts and apparent imminent collapses before, and then the Central Bankers would come in and put on a nice big bandaid which usually involved printing more money and therefore maximizing liquidity.  The maximized liquidity would therefore overwhelm the plummet in the Velocity of that money because for all intents and purposes the Western economies are either comatose or dead since the Financial Collapse of 5768 (2008).  So they have been playing games with our minds and our sanity for almost five years.  Yet, sometimes the dam breaks.  And I am wondering aloud, is a massive 6.35% drop in the Nikkei in just one day a sign that the dam has broken?  We shall see.

Today is the Fifth of Tamuz, the day that Ezekiel saw the Chariot of G-d by the Rivers of Babylon.  Also the Walls of Yerushalayim were breached for the first time on the Ninth of Tamuz in the year 3338 at the time of the Babylonian destruction of the First Temple.

The Brave Man

According to Sefer Kol HaTor, there are 999 incremental steps to bring us to the point of Mashiach ben Ephraim.  According to the Zohar, those steps ended in 5772 1/2.  We should therefore see evidence in 5773 that someone in an influential position in the Israeli government is willing to tell the moribund Western World to Go the way of Azazel (Hell in the English vernacular).  That person has stood up, and at least as of 9:30 this evening, Netanyahu has not yet fired him.  His name is Depurty Defense Minister Danny Danon.  In plain Hebrew and English he has simply said that as long as this government stands, there will never be a 2 State Solution.  I am sure the Ba'al Kerry is fuming.  He thought that he had us all under his thumb...but instead Danny Danon just gave him the third finger.  I can imagine that Sammy (Samkel) Power is busy writing up the UN Security Council resolution for the invasion of Israel as I type this.  But facts are facts, every single "sucker" who would have been willing to buckle under to Kerry in Likud was shown the exit door in the Likud Primary with the possible exception of Tzachi HaNegbi after the 8th Day of the Gaza War.  Four measly days later after the war was the Likud Primary (well actually four and five days later in an unprecedented two day primary).  About half of the 11 or 12 Yisrael Beiteinu MKs which merged with Likud happen to agree with Danny Danon and 18 of the 19 in Likud behind Netanyahu.  That would mean about 25 of the 31 Likud/ Beiteinu folks in the Knesset hold by what Danon is saying.  The process of growing up has taken us through 20 years of Oslo Hell.  So while the Witch of Eindor (Tzippy Livni) lurks with a list of unprecedented concessions to the Ba'al Kerry, Danny Danon just in one fell swoop, snatched her training wheels from underneath her vengeful stare.  This is not to say that the Witch of Eindor or Madam Justice Minister has not been busy forcing us all to accept women with tefillin in the Women's Section at the Kotel.  But in year 73, it appears that over half or 3/4 of Mankind is dancing around a wide open pit that leads directly to Hell.  And they are dancing a wild dance in praise of the forces of darkness.  They are dancing in a frenzy, and they will do whatever they can do to destroy what is Holy.  Let us call Danny Danon's bravery a partial victory against the wild frenzy.   If King Sha'ul fires him tomorrow, I will write an addendum to this post, bli neder.

The Manchurian Candidate, Indeed

I have been debating in my mind:  What should be my post before full fledged war begins here on our northern front?  I wanted to do a post about the Jubilee of Jubilees 5776 (Yovel HaYovelot), but I want to first wait until the Syrian/ Hezbollah war begins here first.  The other possibility was my 2nd post on String Theory (Universe in 10 Dimensions) of Membrane (M) Theory (Universe with an 11th Dimension), and I was about to start writing it when I saw this today:  http://www.theblaze.com/contributions/barack-obama-the-ghost-of-columbia-university/

I found it startling that the President of the US went to university around the same time that I went to university, and no one in his graduating class even met him!!  And No One in his Political Science Dept. except for one Israel hating Professor (Rashid Khalidi??) remembers him.  Surely other Professors besides Rashid Khalidi would have remembered this Marxist/ Muslim bozo.   Let us be honest.  He should have been a model student in the Political Science Dept. at Columbia.  He would have fit well into their America hating/ Israel hating profile for being a top student.  Now that he is in year 5 of his 7 years of mayhem as Pres. of the United States, we here in Israel should thank HaShem that he has not yet used his fully focused energies to destroy us, whom he hates more than he hates anything else.  So far he has used those energies destroying his "host" country from within.

Overdrive Toward World War in Syria

Here are three links to see how the world is being pushed by the hand of Heaven toward world war in Syria, albeit at the end of the nine months instead of during the nine months.

1. Even American leftists are admitting that Benghazigate was Obama's clandestine attempt to arm the Muslim Brotherhood Jihadists in Syria by using the Turkish Consul in Benghazi as a go-between.  Geraldo Rivera   Obama did this in order to get around an international obligation to not counter Russian support for Assad in Syria.  So he had to do it surreptitiously and then try to cover it up.

2. By trying to cover it up, Obama now risks impeachment proceedings about a cover-up which is more explosive than Watergate.  At least with Watergate four Americans did not end up dead.  Impeachment looming  So here one has a pacifist Muslim loving President who under most circumstances would never go to war until it was too late especially in the Muslim World.  Yet, he is being pushed by "unseen forces" aka the Hand of G-d to do something to attenuate what could be the political indictment of the century.  If it was the secret support of Al Qaeda and the Muslim Bros. in Syria that put him into this hot water.  What is the best response?  Make what was private and surreptitious into public policy!  The Saudis are already all for it.  So all Obama has to do is go with the flow.

3. Pretext:  a) Russia is now arming Assad with super duper laser guided accurate missiles.  Israel is threatened.  If he, Obama, goes to war, he can always blame the Jews for bringing him in.

b) It has already been proven that Assad has used sarin gas on his own people.  Obama has admitted this even though his gut instinct was to simply fudge his original red line on the use of these chemicals.

c) and now over Shabbat there was this in Turkey.  If the Turks insist that it was Assad who blew up those bombs, what is a NATO ally to do?

When Divine Providence finally shows Its Hand, learn to expect the unexpected to force the sleazy pacifist reprobate (menuval) to do things that he normally would never do.

The Archduke Ferdinand Moment??

Anyone following this blog knows that we have been following the 40 weeks of pregnancy since Tisha B'Av 5772 as if there was a conception that took place last Tisha B'Av according to the Zohar VaYeira 119.  It was all based on that Zohar that the molad for Siwan 5772, a star in the east (the sun) swallowed seven stars in the north (the Pleiades or the 7 Sisters).  It was a widely covered annular solar eclipse which marked the birth of the new moon (the molad) for Siwan 5772.  This was a verse from the Zohar.  Then on the 8th of the month of Siwan, the Flame virus was reported because it had been discovered in the cyber-rakia (cyberspace).  Now the Zohar specifically says that a Flame of Black Fire would hang in the rakia for 60 days.  After speaking with Rav Ariel Bar Tzaddok, he told me that since it was a Flame of Black fire in the rakia, it was not necessarily an observable event.  It would be a spiritual event with a siman (in this case the flame virus) that would occur when the Moon for the month of Siwan "ruled" the sky.  According to Chassidut this takes place from 7 full days after the molad until 7 full days after the molad in the following month.  Yet, we did not have long to wait.  The announcement about the Flame virus was mamash on the 8th of Siwan after the molad.  60 days later was Tisha B'Av 5772.  Now many many bloggers including myself were expecting a major event to take place on Tisha B'Av last year.  What happened was actually striking because it has to do with the very next verse in the Zohar VaYeira 119:  There will be wars (or a World War) in the north in which two kings will perish.  Suddenly without notice, the Syrian Civil War in which about 1000 or 1500 people had been dying per month since in started in 2011, exploded, and at least 5000 people started to die per month.  And over the last nine months at least 50,000 people have died, just in that period of time, as the death toll has skyrocketed above 6000 people dying per month, more than half of the dead being civilians.  For several months it seemed that the war had been quarantined because any country entering could trigger a world war.  The Russians on Assad's side kept telling us all along that the situation was contained ....to 6000 people dying per month.  And so it seemed to be stable.  Suddenly in the last few weeks it has been proven that Assad has actually used sarin nerve agent on his own people and against the rebels, many of which are foreign Islamicist fighters.

Yet, the next verse in the Zohar VaYeira 119 perked my curiosity.     Then all the nations shall combine together against the daughter of Ya'akov in order to drive her from the world.  It is of that time that it is written:  "And It is a time of trouble onto Ya'akov, but out of it he shall be saved." (Yirmiyahu 30:7)    There is is from the Book of Jeremiah.  So I  decided to look a little deeper into this verse by examining the verse in context.  Then I made a striking discovery.  The previous verse Jer. 30:6 spoke about a pregnancy:  Ask now and see if a male has ever given birth.  Why then do I see that every man puts his hands on his loins like a woman in childbirth and all faces turn pallid.  30:7 Woe!  For that day will be momentous!  There is nothing like it.  And it (will be) a time of trouble for Ya'akov, but out of it he shall be saved!  Now it was already 4 months and one week into this pregnancy since Tisha B'Av 5772 when I first noticed this.  I believe it came after the big UN General Assembly vote for Palestine on or around the 15th of Kislev four months plus one week after Tisha B'Av 5772.  At that point I considered it important to keep track.  It could become hairy in one of two ways.  There would be a major buildup in tension until the end of nine months at which time there would be a release from the pain an suffering.  It did not progress in accordance with that path  although a slew of events had occurred in the very short time from the 14th of Cheshvan (Hurricane Sandy) and the 15th of Kislev (the UN vote on the  Gregorian anniversary of the partition plan of November 29th, 1947.  It seemed to me with that vote our time of real trouble had commenced even though the 9 months and two weeks had begun on the previous Tisha B'Av in accord with the Zohar VaYeira 119.

For those who regularly follow this blog I have been vigilant to heavily post in what could be described as the 6 week period of the 9th months.  Starting with Obama's arrival around the 9th or Tenth of Nisan and his Beast car that could not start because it was filled up with the wrong fuel.  Since then with a slight break for the first day of Pesach, I have been posting much more frequently than normal.  I had committed myself to fully cover this six week time spread from the tenth of Nisan until the 25h of Iyar, the stopping point of the end of the 40th week since Tisha B'av, the time span of an average healthy pregnancy.  Suddenly on the last day of my coverage, it happened.  You can read it right here:  http://www.foxnews.com/world/2013/05/05/israel-strikes-military-research-center-syrian-state-news-agency-says/  From what I can tell it was a real game-changer.  This attack was not a missile fire from Lebanese airspace against a convoy of Persian trucks carrying very accurate laser guided long range missiles, things that had been promised to Hezbollah.  Today the attack was against a munitions facility in the heart of Damascus.   This attack killed and wounded many people.   It was a real gamechanger.  Now I am not going to guess what happens next.  There are many possibilities how this can continue to blow up, but this time I believe it will.  For now let us mark the 25 of Iyar as the end of the 40 weeks of pregnancy which began last Tisha B'Av.  And something of significant escalation did take place today.  What seems to be evident is that the birthpangs have really become to press at the end of the 40 weeks, not in particular during the weeks of the ninth month themselves.  Time will tell......
