Breath
Take a Breath



Last night's Stop Iran Now rally in front of Senator Schumer & Gillibrand's offices went off without a hitch. The evening was filled with Inspirational speakers, and the NYPD informed rally organizers that 7,000 people were in attendance, making this the largest rally ever in front of a senator's office. Kudos to the ZOA and others who helped organize and run the event. Hope was in the air as speaker after speaker highlighted the dangers of the deal, yet cautioned against defeatism. Retired Senator Joe Lieberman stated that even if Obama got the votes to override a Senate veto, the battle would not be lost, and we should certainly stay true to the cause.

Today, of course, we read that Obama got the votes; 34 was his magic number and he reached it. A short while ago we heard that even 'friend of Israel', Hakeem Jeffries, who was originally leaning against the deal, will support it and not vote to override. Hakeem Jeffries Says He Supports the Iran Nuclear Deal

Who knows how many more will unfortunately join the rolling snowball. Yet, as Lieberman cautioned, a lot can happen between now and the vote in Congress, so we should continue opposing the deal and certainly not give up.

It is time to take a breath and follow Senator Lieberman's sound advice. Please reference AFSI's Calendar of Events below for a list of Stop Iran Now rallies, marches and speaking events during this and next week (Apologies if we omitted an event that you are aware of; if so, please contact us.)

Shemittah at its best in Yitzhar and Is this coming year Jubilee Year? Liberty Bell, Declaration of Independence, 50 Reasons to Impeach...

bs"d


Jews in Yitzhar practice Shemittah at site of ancient vineyard

Divine Patterns Found in Shmittah, Jubilee Cycles Point to Something Big About to Happen for Israel

Do You Know What is Inscribed on the Liberty Bell?

The Declaration of Independence: A Transcription  http://www.archives.gov/exhibits/charters/declaration_transcript.html


IN CONGRESS, July 4, 1776.

The unanimous Declaration of the thirteen united States of America,

When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.--Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government. The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid world.

He has refused his Assent to Laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public good.
He has forbidden his Governors to pass Laws of immediate and pressing importance, unless suspended in their operation till his Assent should be obtained; and when so suspended, he has utterly neglected to attend to them.
He has refused to pass other Laws for the accommodation of large districts of people, unless those people would relinquish the right of Representation in the Legislature, a right inestimable to them and formidable to tyrants only. 
He has called together legislative bodies at places unusual, uncomfortable, and distant from the depository of their public Records, for the sole purpose of fatiguing them into compliance with his measures. 
He has dissolved Representative Houses repeatedly, for opposing with manly firmness his invasions on the rights of the people.
He has refused for a long time, after such dissolutions, to cause others to be elected; whereby the Legislative powers, incapable of Annihilation, have returned to the People at large for their exercise; the State remaining in the mean time exposed to all the dangers of invasion from without, and convulsions within.
He has endeavoured to prevent the population of these States; for that purpose obstructing the Laws for Naturalization of Foreigners; refusing to pass others to encourage their migrations hither, and raising the conditions of new Appropriations of Lands.
He has obstructed the Administration of Justice, by refusing his Assent to Laws for establishing Judiciary powers.
He has made Judges dependent on his Will alone, for the tenure of their offices, and the amount and payment of their salaries.
He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harrass our people, and eat out their substance.
He has kept among us, in times of peace, Standing Armies without the Consent of our legislatures.
He has affected to render the Military independent of and superior to the Civil power.
He has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitution, and unacknowledged by our laws; giving his Assent to their Acts of pretended Legislation:
For Quartering large bodies of armed troops among us:
For protecting them, by a mock Trial, from punishment for any Murders which they should commit on the Inhabitants of these States:
For cutting off our Trade with all parts of the world:
For imposing Taxes on us without our Consent: 
For depriving us in many cases, of the benefits of Trial by Jury:
For transporting us beyond Seas to be tried for pretended offences
For abolishing the free System of English Laws in a neighbouring Province, establishing therein an Arbitrary government, and enlarging its Boundaries so as to render it at once an example and fit instrument for introducing the same absolute rule into these Colonies:
For taking away our Charters, abolishing our most valuable Laws, and altering fundamentally the Forms of our Governments:
For suspending our own Legislatures, and declaring themselves invested with power to legislate for us in all cases whatsoever.
He has abdicated Government here, by declaring us out of his Protection and waging War against us.
He has plundered our seas, ravaged our Coasts, burnt our towns, and destroyed the lives of our people. 
He is at this time transporting large Armies of foreign Mercenaries to compleat the works of death, desolation and tyranny, already begun with circumstances of Cruelty & perfidy scarcely paralleled in the most barbarous ages, and totally unworthy the Head of a civilized nation.
He has constrained our fellow Citizens taken Captive on the high Seas to bear Arms against their Country, to become the executioners of their friends and Brethren, or to fall themselves by their Hands. 
He has excited domestic insurrections amongst us, and has endeavoured to bring on the inhabitants of our frontiers, the merciless Indian Savages, whose known rule of warfare, is an undistinguished destruction of all ages, sexes and conditions.

In every stage of these Oppressions We have Petitioned for Redress in the most humble terms: Our repeated Petitions have been answered only by repeated injury. A Prince whose character is thus marked by every act which may define a Tyrant, is unfit to be the ruler of a free people.

Nor have We been wanting in attentions to our Brittish brethren. We have warned them from time to time of attempts by their legislature to extend an unwarrantable jurisdiction over us. We have reminded them of the circumstances of our emigration and settlement here. We have appealed to their native justice and magnanimity, and we have conjured them by the ties of our common kindred to disavow these usurpations, which, would inevitably interrupt our connections and correspondence. They too have been deaf to the voice of justice and of consanguinity. We must, therefore, acquiesce in the necessity, which denounces our Separation, and hold them, as we hold the rest of mankind, Enemies in War, in Peace Friends.

We, therefore, the Representatives of the united States of America, in General Congress, Assembled, appealing to the Supreme Judge of the world for the rectitude of our intentions, do, in the Name, and by Authority of the good People of these Colonies, solemnly publish and declare, That these United Colonies are, and of Right ought to be Free and Independent States; that they are Absolved from all Allegiance to the British Crown, and that all political connection between them and the State of Great Britain, is and ought to be totally dissolved; and that as Free and Independent States, they have full Power to levy War, conclude Peace, contract Alliances, establish Commerce, and to do all other Acts and Things which Independent States may of right do. And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes and our sacred Honor.

50 Reasons to Impeach... Oh Bomb Uh...

bs"d

"50 Reasons to Impeach Obama." by anonymous

The problem is all inside our head
I say to all
The answer is easy if we
act and do not stall
I'd like to help us in our struggle
To be free
There must be fifty reasons
To impeach Obama...

I know it's really not our habit
To intrude
Furthermore, I hope my meaning
Won't be lost or misconstrued
But I'll repeat myself
At the risk of being crude
There must be fifty reasons
To Impeach Obama
Fifty reasons to impeach Obama...

[CHORUS:]
The dollar will collapse, Max
Threatened by Iran, Sam
Navy Seals, in Benghazi, they killed, Neal
America's finest, abandoned,  that's clear

The Riot was fake, Jake
A filmmaker in jail, Gail
Take away guns, and our right to fight
Just let Evil Prevail

Illegals and criminals on our backs, Jack
Defending Muslims to attack, Mack
"depressed radical" ? shoots in Chattanooga, Tennessee
Obomba's true birth certificate please show me

Raise the minimum wage, rage
Obama's not on the same page
Cause these rates we can't afford,  Rob
So Hi tech robots will get the job.  

Obamacare, not affordable no care
Soros buys out coal industry, Dear
Russia takes over the Ukraine
Isis atrocities,horrific and profane

Iran inspects itself, Jeff
Iran funds Hezbollah, Beth
Buys weapons from Russia Hurrah, 
death threats for Israel and America, each day! 

Enriches Uranium for Nuke
to destroy Israel, dear Luke
Global warning most dangerous, my foot
Crossing red lines, chemical weapons Assad took

Saudi Arabia too
So scared of Iran, will Partner with the Jew
OH Bomb Uh, your partners are evil for sure
Leaving democracy out the door

Circumvents Congress a lot, Scott
does his own thing, Ming
Judiciary Tyranny the thing.
Now that Obama's the King

World is not safe no more
With be-headings and rapes galore
Islam wants to take over the world
"Peaceful religion with nukes", yeah right, for sure..

Playing golf during crisis', Jane
Michelle's lavish vacations, insane
Obama's says "rights" for young girls and gays 
But enslave, stone, hang them in Iran, that's ok..

American hostages we forget
The terms of Iran must be met
A secure deal for Israel,
 "believe Obama, trust Obomba, have faith in O bomb uh"...you bet

This list goes on and on, Wayne
Treason, big money, Jew Blame,
Being a "best friend" to Jews his claim
When Taquia is his game

Talking about paper money, honey
It's been so easy to print, Sonny
It's not such a big deal, Jameel
for the Federal Mint it's a steal

Take wealth away from the people
Is his mentor's, Ayers advice
Make Americans all poor
the Rich have no rights

America the great?
No need for that
No need to be exceptional
Just be a door mat.

Just give the UN the power
Is this America's finest hour?
With  human rights violations exploding
Our Hopes for Freedom eroding

Did we reach fifty reasons yet
there is so much more to expect
Monica Lewinsky's a breeze
in comparison to these...

Nixon's Watergate as well
was no major threat
to our national security, economy,health and wealth,
But from Obama, Now US, Please G-d, Protect!
=================end chorus

America, it grieves us so
To see you in such pain
I wish there was something I could do
To make you smile again
I thought you'd appreciate that
And do you need me to please explain
About the fifty reasons..

Let's say why don't we both
Just sleep on it tonight
And I believe in the morning
We''ll begin to see the light
And when we are rational it's plain as one can see
There must be at least fifty reasons
To impeach Obama
At least Fifty reasons to impeach Obama...

CHORUS....

fyi

Fwd: The Hidden Cause of Recent Violence in America

---------- Forwarded message ----------

The Hidden Cause of Recent Violence in America


Prof. Paul Eidelberg

 

Cities across America are reporting startling increases in violence. I attribute this increase largely to the anti-American president Barack Obama.


From the outset of his first campaign for the presidency eight years ago, Obama has cast visible contempt on America's two foundational documents, the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution. 


The pivotal concept of the Declaration is "the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God." Obama rejects this all-important concept since he is an avowed multi-cultural moral relativist. And since he has also disdained the Constitution, the supreme law of the land, he has imbued countless people with contempt for law in general. 


At the same time, Obama's "outreach" foreign policy, has dignified despotic regimes in which the rule of men supplants the rule of law, regimes from the Palestinian Authority to the Mullocracy of Iran. 

 

Moreover, not only does Obama fail to condemn Islamic terrorism without equivocation, but he also displays contempt for Israel, the only nation in the Middle East that upholds the rule of law and the inviolable dignity of the individual.

 

This highly visible President of the most powerful nation on earth – this President whose acts and speeches are reported everywhere – has been the most pernicious example on earth to Americans and mankind in general.

  

Obama's multicultural moral relativism, and his conspicuous laxity toward Islamic terrorism – he has appointed Muslims to important positions in his administration – has prompted the "wicked in spirit"to become the "wicked in practice." The quoted words are those Abraham Lincoln used back in 1837 when racial violence had erupted in the United States and when many law-breakers went unpunished.

 

This simple psychological fact about the "wicked in spirit" becoming the "wicked in practice," has been ignored by pundits. But this fact, affirmed by commonsense, and well understood by any criminologist uncorrupted by liberalism, has contributed enormously to the upsurge of violence in cities across America as well as to Islamic terrorism across the globe. 


Indeed, the mere fact that doubt remains about Obama's eligibility to hold the highest office in the land, places in question the laws he has signed – enough to cynicism and generate contempt for law and order among the masses, above all, among Muslims who regard "infidel" Americans as dogs and pigs. "Pigs" is a choice word that criminals use to describe the police! 


The outbreak of violence in American cities will not subside so long as Obama remains in office.◙

On Monday, August 31, Americans for a Safe Israel, Zionist Organization of America, Veterans Against the Deal, StandWithUs, Young Israel of Hollywood and Aventura, and the Israeli American Council, co-sponsored a rally outside of Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz's office in Aventura, Florida.

Carol Flatto and Sid Kulick
 
AFSI's South Florida Chapter Chair, Carol Flatto was quoted:
"The cross-section of the hundreds of people who gathered in 95 degree weather outside of Congresswoman Wasserman-Schultz's office for over two hours exemplifies how critically opposed we are to this Iran deal. We had Jews and Christians, Hispanics and Anglos, Army veterans, and even an Iranian all coming together to raise our collective voices in opposition to this Iran deal. We elect our representatives to represent us, and the several hundred who gathered here are just a tiny fraction of her constituency who adamantly oppose the JCPOA. The Congresswoman has to decide whether her loyalty lies with President Obama and VP Biden or the safety and security of a world threatened by a demonstrated terrorist regime that cannot be trusted. She can be remembered like Queen Esther who saved her nation, or Neville Chamberlain, whose name is synonymous with appeasement and world war."

AFSI is mentioned in an article in today's Haaretz newspaper, by Seth Lipsky.

Excerpts:
The New York Times is out with a story about U.S. President Barack Obama's appeal to a Jewish community that is, in respect of the Iran deal, "divided and troubled." I don't buy it. I haven't done a double-blind study, but looking back over my 35 or more years covering the Jewish beat, I find it hard to think of a major question on which the Jewish community has been more united than it is in its opposition to Obama's compact of appeasement with Iran.

It's not only left and right in Israel that the Iran appeasement has brought together. It's also made bedfellows of an astonishing array of Jewish organizations in America. The Anti-Defamation League is in agreement with the Zionist Organization of America and the revisionists of Americans for a Safe Israel and the American Jewish Committee. When does that happen? Most of the federations in the big cities are against the deal, even if New York's has stood neutral.
