The penalty for kidnapping and murder is properly death and not life in prison. The penalty for assaulting children and even adults by elders and especially religeous figures should also be death as could be learned out from similar laws in the Torah. The AArabs have not received appropriate punishment nor have many Jews thus we have the situation we have at hand Bruce Klinenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7497397929451139438.post-13061475567623066822014-06-24T12:36:04.057+03:002014-06-24T12:36:04.057+03:00Why is that?

For some reason, this seems to breed a certain cynicism about these self-proclaimed neviim and their "reasons."<br /><br />Prayer, on the other hand, is generic and apolitical, so calling for prayer generally seems to be free of any underlying political/hashkafic agenda.Baruch Gitlinnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7497397929451139438.post-34333433296511794262014-06-23T23:07:32.885+03:002014-06-23T23:07:32.885+03:00Obviously Hamas has no real power over us, they ar...Obviously Hamas has no real power over us, they are jus t a shaliach from Hashem. Hashem does not bring nisayons like this (or does anything) for no reason. Why this is happening can be for a number of reasons and while I do believe there are Tzaddkim out there that may have an inkling to why, non of us common folk really has any clue. Can it be because of the Chareidi Draft and anti Torah sentiments and laws from the State? Of course it can. It can also be because of Chillul Shabbos, lack of Tzniut, or any number of others things that Hashem has His reasons for. It is sad that it takes a tragedy and a nisayon like this to bring us together as a nation, but maybe that is the real lesson here. We have no one to turn to besides Hashem and we are alone in this world, unique among the nations, brothers & sisters to the same Avos and Emahos. United we stand, divided we fall. Please Hashem bring our brothers back home safely and please Am Yisroel, lets stop being stubborn and show unconditional love for each other.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7497397929451139438.post-44342258322789933502014-06-23T18:59:42.322+03:002014-06-23T18:59:42.322+03:00The government is to to blame for teaching terrori...The government is to to blame for teaching terrorists again and again that it is very rewarding to kidnap Jews.
