look at 41 seconds in the first video, on the bottom says "Sand" storm, looks familiar to famous Sandy in New York. seems copy of the Sandy will show to big talkers not to think that they safe and may not laugh at the rest of the world. When it hit us everybody was talking that it is our punishment, now try to catch the "boomerang".

Jewish leader: Anti-Semitism up in Austria

Noticed a similar reaction last year, when Israel received record rainfall, but that's precisely what Rabbinical Leadership requested.

There's no boomerang! As Yaak posted, from Midrash Yeshaya 59:19: "... if you see a generation where many troubles are coming upon it like a river, wait for him, as it says "for distress will come in like a flood, which the breath of the LORD driveth" and next to it, it says, "And a redeemer will come to Zion, and unto them that turn from transgression in Jacob, saith the LORD.""

"...a redeemer will come to Zion..."

so what else is new. Bibi wants to have a two state solution so missles will rain down on ALL of Israel. If you are a Israeli, vote Otzma Leyisrael. Why? Because they do what they say. How about Jewish Home? Have you heard of a religious party having a declared secular woman on the ticket for MK? It is nonsense, Mr. Bennett is a young Bibi and will end up with a two state solution. What about Shas? Do you remember they walked around the grounds when the vote for Kush Katif, Gaza was being voted.
If you are NOT a Israeli, watch for Jew hate to get bigger where you are. Sooner or later it will happen to you, my friend and then what. I am NOT going to tell you I told you so. Yes, Israel is a small country with BIG problems but it is our home. When the goyim say leave, where are you going to go, US, Austraila, Japan, no you are going to go to Israel. Get out while you can with your stuff. 60 years wasn't enough for you. Dear brothers and sisters and righteous goyim, help get them out of their born countries. Devorah, why don't you post what is happening in France and Greece to the Jews there?

Listen to your self! When it hit us , it was our punishment, when it hit you , redeemer will come to Zion.

Honestly I dont anywhere remember reading it was your punishment, rather, because of the utter devestation of Jewish communities c"l that now need to be rebuilt, it makes sense to just come home to E"Y.

6 million Jews from the Unites States can not just come home.

We need Mashiah to bring us home, not just come home.

There have not been 6 million Jews in the US since the 1960s. According to Rav Ephraim Buchwald even in the 1990s the number was below 5 million Jews, and of those, 2 million would deny that they were Jews if you asked them the question. As difficult as this storm was for the Left Coast, it was nothing like Sandy. The judgements in Israel are precise like a laser. Of course HaShem is upset about Tel Aviv being the 2nd "gayest" city in the world. And of course HaShem is upset about how Jews on the Left Coast can vote in large numbers to expel other Jews from their homes ten to thirty miles away from where they live. So the lack of common decency by some has a consequence.

By and large this storm was a bracha. The Kinneret is aa high as it has been in 20 years, and all the reservoirs of water in the Golan and the Galil are now full. And the snow melt in the Hermon will simply add more centimeters to the lake's level. For those fools who think that we have gotten a comeuppance, you will see with your own eyes and with your own experience soon enough that you should have at least tried to leave the US before it totally collapsed. Irene was a shot across the bow. And the 2 Sandys are just the beginning. Yes, New York City is now a city that stinks in the upper realms. You are likely going to elect a lesbian Mayor there who recently had a lavish ceremony where she married her girlfriend.

And Yes, there are sandstorms in the Negev. It happens to be a desert. Perhaps you have forgotten that.

Dov Bar-Leib said...

The proof that this storm in Israel was not a storm of massive destruction will be in the Aftermath stories. After Shabbat we will have a better idea of how much damage this storm did. And you will see that although there are stories about individual suffering and about one or two hundred homes with some water damage and some stories about damaged crops, most of the stories will be positive about the filled Kinnereth and other reservoirs. Yes, Hadera seemed especially hard hit, but look for the aftermath stories before you compare this with Sandy.

Devorah,

Here is what I found out about what is happening to Greek Jews. http://www.jta.org/news/article/2012/11/01/3110791/as-golden-dawn-gains-popularity-greek-jews-strategize-on-how-to-combat-neo-nazi-party

It is the bracha of the 5th year of the Sabbatical cycle before ben David comes in 5776 the Yovel HaYovelot according to Yehudah HaChassid. 5775 is the Shmittah year. Here in Eretz Yisrael it will only get better and better.

It is nothing to compare Dov, it is just a message for big talkers. If those will not stop talking the second hit will be much harder, that is the proof of "boomerang". Words that have no meaning will go up to Shammaim and make destructions there.
