Rabbi Lazer Brody said, with Hashem’s ever-loving grace, we’ll visit the desert and see the secret behind the amazing survival of the sycamore, the sagebrush, and the snail. As you’re probably guessing, the secret of these species’ survival in the desert is an important message to each and every one of us.
It’s also my answer to the tyrants of this generation that seek to destroy us, Heaven forbid. Enjoy and G-d bless.
In this very inspiring clip, filmed on location in Israel’s northern Negev desert, Rav Lazer Brody explains how the desert flora survives, and what it means to us.
The response of the current Jewish government to the Mercaz HaRav massacre – the brutal slaying of unsuspecting children in the eternal capital of our people – agreeing to a ceasefire or “lull” in violence with those ultimately responsible, thus defies the logic of its own existence.
Following a war of terror that lasted several years, the members of this government, in the name of peace, led an assault on their own citizenry, expropriating their property, homes, livelihoods and communities without just compensation. Our enemies responded with kidnappings and a torrent of indiscriminate rockets, which has lasted two years. Now, after the Mercaz massacre, the government continues in its policy of active inaction, proving once and for all the maxim that Jewish blood is cheap.
The confrontation between the victims and their community and Education Minister Yuli Tamir was a continuance of this policy. While a visit by an education minister to an educational institution where there was a tragedy sounds normal, Tamir is infamous for cutting funding to religious schools like Mercaz HaRav, while allowing Palestinians to label Independence Day as al-Nakba (the catastrophe) in their textbooks.
