  • Faulty Critique of Hostage Deal

    This guy claims the hostage release deal is bad because there are terrorists being released from prisons. He cites the release of Yahya Sinwar as proof that it’s a bad idea to release prisoners. The problem is that it is the only way to get the hostages home, and it won’t make Israelis and Jews much less safe. Everyone hates the Jews, and there are millions of terrorists training to attack Israel all over the world. More are now released in exchange for ending the war and getting the remaining h... more

  • God??

    I keep hearing about God, trust in God. I think you're delusional. Where was God on Oct 7. Where was he during the Holocaust in Europe. There is no God looking after Jews. There's a force in the universe but stop personifying it as if it is protecting the Jews. It's delusional.

  • 18 Aug 2025 episode a SHANDA (shameful), not truth. Dangerous & needs to be removed -now.

    The Episode from 2 or 3 days ago, Lenny’s Tanach…” is an absolute Shanda (shameful) and is a slander of Judaism and the Jewish people.

    It gravely misrepresents the message of Torah and Judaism in general, promotes ethnic cleansing and wrongly claims that Torah is nothing than recounting of war after war. The episode is grossly supremacist, promotes the teachings of a “rabbi” who was listed as a terrorist by the Israeli government itself, and possibly by the U.S. and European Departments of Sta... more
