'It's an Emunah issue' by Tzvi Livshits

Something I wrote on my Facebook page exactly a year ago to this day:

At its core, this is a global spiritual issue.

An emunah issue.

We need to reevaluate our relationship with HaShem and fast.

Especially the so called "frum" people who have in these past 2 years, clearly, before my very eyes, behaved as if there is no HaShem...and have treated their fellow Torah Jews as if lepers from Biblical times.

Some of the so-called "rabbis" who are so "scholarly", "charismatic" and "warm"...who ostracized congregants and banned them from entering their buildings.

Following only twisted logic, constantly shifting goalposts and junk science...fueled by their own neuroses, hypochondria and media-induced psychosis...as well as politics, money and the need to fit in.

I've met people who have said Sheycheyanu and Hallel when they found out that the Smacksines are coming to Israel.

I've met people who have told me that I should take this stuff because, and i'm quoting verbatim:

"All the BIG rabbis said to take it."

(which isn't even factually true...nor would it be relevant to your personal medical decision if it were true.)

Like a child covering their ears from their parents, they were unable to hear the Shmizer CEO's own words...verbatim:

"Israel is the world's lab."

LALALA! Can't hear you! I'm a lab rat! Sign me up!

They will soon realize that it was the biggest "Bracha L'vatala" they ever uttered...ie, said in vain...and it will be the last "Daas Torah" (Torah-based advice) they will ever follow.

This horrible nightmare of an experiment (which officially goes on until 2023) began with Israel and it will end with Israel.

We are clearly a spiritually broken nation.

If we want to fix the world, we need to spiritually look within ourselves.

When Israel stops, the world will stop.

It's up to us.
