We're coming off last week. We had Dr. Rosemarin discussing anxiety. very interesting topic and how to deal with it and he mentioned you know the concept that it might even be something to embrace to listen to so that it can help us in life and coming over there talking about this week and we have this headlines of danger Israel some people could be like oh my what's going on so many people would say kalis you know we're not in danger hashem watches us which is amazing then Hashem should continue watching us. On the other hand, when you have people that have thoughts and different things they have in their heads, the first step is always, you know, call a friend, talk, discuss. Let's see what's going on, what is, what is true, what's not true, what do we know, what we don't know. Ultimately, Hashem watches us and we have to dive in and do what we need to do as cla as we know. That's what we're going to focus. But tonight is just someone who knows a little bit. I don't think Jake has all the answers, but it's to be able to have a discussion to see what he sees and what we feel and see, you know, let's discuss it. Let's see. And um obviously at the end we turn to Hashem and we say, you know, Hashem runs the world. But question is what do we have to do? What are we, you know, in this? What are we how how can we invest? What are the steps that we can do? What are the things that we see? How do we understand it? And sometimes you don't understand and that's fine. So we should have a lot of tonight. And if you have any questions, here we are. Thank you, coach. Beautiful opening. Okay, let's get into it. Tonight's share Jake Turks. How much danger are the Jewish people in? A candid political and spiritual discussion with White House correspondent Jake Turks. I'm going to read your bio. I want to say one other thing. No, let me say first which is very interesting fact Turks is going to be talking a lot about safer >> which is next which is this week's parishes and just interesting that the week that he came on that's you know just interesting why we waited this week and it ended up working out like that I'm going to read your bio and Rab Turks please take it away Jake Turks is this white correspondent the chief political analyst forb magazine known for sharp questions and calm respectful style Turks has earned a reputation as one of the most trusted Orthodox voices in Washington. He brings deep insight into US politics, national security, and how government decisions impact the Jewish community. Again, thank you for coming tonight and making time. The floor is yours. >> Wow, this feels like such a heavy topic. I mean, I thought we're just like here to chill. a bunch of friends, friendly faces, and we're definitely uh experiencing some unusual times. And what makes these times extra unusual is the fact that we have swarm that tell us exactly what we can expect and what we need to do about it. So imagine if in the times of McGillastaster, the time of the PUM story, someone discovered in the middle of the story, someone discovered a real copy of the McGill and so they're able to follow along with events as they're unfolding. That would definitely have made that experience a lot more reassuring, right? And so they're looking into the McGill and they see that there's going to be this character Hmon. Now maybe maybe the guy's real name was Mimuhan, but seeing how the different events line up and how the people line up, you're able to figure out what's going to happen. It turns out that the people living in the times of McGillis didn't have that luxury. We on the other hand do. We have not just safer there are other fararm of n that describe the events that are happening today and they uh give us insight into what we can expect. Obviously we can't understand exactly what the novi meant just on its own which is why we have certain mafarim that help us understand the context of what is unfolding why it's unfolding and what we can anticipate in the very near term so safer via is the shortest safer in Tanakh it is one chapter long I call it the TLDDR safer it's a safer that was written for the generation that can't handle more than a single chapter for the entire story. It's 21 sukim and it follows a single story line. So the story is about the destruction of Adam. Who is Edom? So there are two coalitions that have always wanted for themselves and have employed different tactics over the course of history to try to take Israel away from us. One of them is Adam. The other is Ishmal. I think it's it's quite uh understood what the coalition of Ishmael looks like. The coalition of Edam is maybe a little bit um a little bit less defined, but Kazal uh deliated as the coalition of Christian nations uh what we would know as Western civilization. And so the tactics that Yeshal uses to try to get is more by the sword. The tactics that Adam uses to try to get at this role is a little bit more underhanded, but they both have the same uh goal in common. And so Ivad starts out with the destruction of Edom, which is supposed to happen before the revelation of Messiah. So how much later does Messiah show up? The timeline is not uh isn't isn't um spelled out exactly, but we know that a prerequisite before Messiah has to be the destruction of Edin because every nation that messed with the Jewish people all throughout history has has been wiped out. Every single nation. The only one that's still standing is Adam. And Yermia Na'vi says that Edim is going to be they're they're going to be the last one standing of all of all the empires that started with us. Everyone's going to be destroyed. Edim will be the last. In last week's para, there's a medish that says that Hashem showed Yakov in his dream. Hashem showed him all the four gulluses that his children are going to go through. But then by the gul of Adam, he saw the malim going up the ladder and he doesn't see them coming down and they're going higher and higher and higher and he's like hello when is this gullus going to end? This is going on indefinitely. And Hashem tells him even if they reach the stars I'm still going to destroy them eventually. and that is um posal from. So he starts out by saying in his in his lifetime when he's when he lived 2,885 years ago, Edom was a very small um insignificant tiny little nation off to the side of Erisrol. And then they end up founding the Roman Empire and they take over the known world at the time. And then they come back in a third iteration under the Vatican and the spread of western civilization. A quick quick uh trivia point. Why is it known as western civilization? Where does the term western civilization come from? Western civilization was distinct from the east. So uh Rome had split into two. There was Bzantium known as the east Roman Empire and then there was Rome itself which was the western Roman Empire. So western civilization is is a direct link to what was then western Rome. So he says one day Edim is going to take over the known world under Rome and then they're going to get so powerful that they will be building bases in outer space. So when you rise up like an eagle and when you build bases among the stars from there hashem is going to bring you down to your destruction. So is going to be the most powerful nation in the world at the time. They'll be the most powerful co coalition of nations says that the entire technological all the technological advancements will be exclusive to Adam. They will innovate everything. The entire industrial revolution will be exclusively Adam. And then Adam is going to use their leverage to create a coalition of all the nations. This coalition is going to claim to stand for peace, but they're really going to be the opposite of peace. And this is the coalition that Hashem is going to judge when Msiah does show up. And it says and Asov that Mashiach will ascend Mount Zion. He will judge Harov. So we would assume Harov means the mountain of Asov. But what is that? Says the Bossar. Harov means the coalition of nations under Asov. So that's where the story ends. How do we get from the point of the space race to their final destruction and their judgment? So he says uh in Pikdal continuing he says it's going to unfold when they allow criminals and bad people into their country and they'll be so arrogant that they'll there will be this sense of who cares if they come into like we're so powerful like why should we be why should we be concerned with a few thousand migrants? We're we have nukes. our allies have nukes. We have the F-35. Who cares? There's nothing these migrants can do to us. And so it'll be the same arrogance that enables them uh to explore inter intergalactic uh colonies will be the same arrogance that will say, "Who cares? Who cares if uh our culture is eroding? We're we're so much more overpowered than everyone else in the world. There's nothing that we need to be afraid of. And that will be their own undoing. Their militaries are going to be distracted over a conflict on a certain border. And while that's happening, there's going to be this event that is described as a kamas against the Jews. Kamas has the word which means hostages. There will be an event of hostages against the Jewish people that will have been secretly supported by Edom which we know the biggest funders of Kamas through UNRA was the United States under Joe Biden and Europe the third biggest funer Iran got their money from the United States. So the three biggest funders of kamas were all edi entity masquerading as a legitimate international organization but it's the same edomim that refused to allow the Jews to have control of of after World War II. Um you know the UN to this day still claims ownership over Jerusalem and and uh uh the surrounding areas. So instead of returning Israel to the Jews, they're still holding on to it. They're still claiming it as their own. And then so Paku talks about kamas is there's a reference to the warriors of Yemen. If you want to open a uh and check talks about the the leaders of of Edim of Western civilization losing their minds and the knowledge suddenly uh becoming obsolete and um and then right after kamas describes October 7th it says the day that foreigners and strangers will break on your wall and take people hostage and they'll frame it as a mad gamble over the liberation of Shaim. And from that point, Hashem says, "I know that Adam is really has really um chosen their sides and they've chosen the side that's against the Jewish people." So, this is going to be the final test for Adam. Is Eden going to support Hamas? Uh enable them, give them backing and give them the illusion of motivation um of momentum on their side. You know, every time kamas was ready to uh capitulate, you had uh western countries making announcements like recognition of a Palestinian state and then they were like actually you know what, let's just keep fighting. that just to give one example. So um also the protests in the west has has given them a lot of um has given them the impression that if if only they can hold out long enough the west is going to come to their defense. So the west has been playing both sides and the navi says that from this kamas is going to um unfold the assured destruction of Adam. And so we see what came out of this kamas was the protests that have been sweeping major western cities especially in Europe. And um the we're talking about in the vicinity of a quarter of a million to half a million protesters in major cities like like Rome, Paris. Look at what's going on in Brussels just this week. uh Germany, Sweden, uh you know, so the says that from the from this against the Jews, the nations of Edom will be covered in humiliation until they are finally wiped out forever. Very, very heavy. A lot of very heavy concepts over here. >> Just one second. >> And can you hear me? Can you hear me? I'm just saying that he's reading straight from the ha of this week's para. If you open if you if you go into this week's reading plus I just want to make sure everybody understands it. I'm following along with him. 21. So I'm sorry. Just continue. I just want to make sure people understand what you're reading. >> No. No. Sure. Sure. If people are able to follow inside >> he's saying it says it there word for word. >> Yes. Yes. You don't need any any special uh any any special >> any or some the in this week's para 21 word for word continue. >> Yes. So then the novi goes through a bunch of warnings what what eddim should not do how eddim should not behave after this uh the day of this kamas against the Jews. He says, "Don't scrutinize your brother. Uh don't um don't open your mouth to him. Don't rejoice uh at his uh at his hardships. Uh don't take him uh to the courts of of the nations. Uh it says uh don't keep his hostages locked up any longer than necessary." A bunch of violations that we see that Edom had violated right from the outset. And it finishes off that Hashem is going to punish all of the nations precisely in the same manner that they tried to destroy the Jewish people. So if you want to look at which nations are are being destroyed by assimilation, those were the nations where the the largest percent of Jews were assimilated out of existence. So they're being assimilated out of existence. Similarly, the countries where the pgrams took place are right now having pagrum style attacks that are devastating their their lands. So you just look at how these countries are being destroyed and it is measure for measure how they had been attempting to destroy the Jewish people for the totality of the previous millennium. And uh then it uh it ends off with the Jewish people uniting. And once the Jewish people are united um and then when that happens base of Lakash our enemies will be like straw and they will they will just be devoured without us having to uh uh make any special kind of effort on our part. And then uh we are going to settle certain lands. It mentions five specific areas that the Jewish people are going to settle after uh this war has come to its final conclusion. And one of those lands is the lands of the pushim which we know the lands of the pushim the there were five major cities of the pisham historically. uh four of the five are already part of Israel and the last Palishni city that is not under uh is Jewish uh uh sovereignty yet is Gaza. So it says uh the Jews are going to settle five territories that are that we currently don't um don't control yet. Uh Gaza being one of them, Samaria being another one. and that that is going to be uh as an outcome of the war. Now this war is this is interesting because the war is not over yet and essentially we are fighting against three somewhat um indestructible forces from a spiritual uh perspective. One enemy is the pushim. the pushim. We were never able to eradicate the pushim because the pushim the source of the pushim um cababalas farm talk about it that the pushim have some some very powerful uh sources uh that are protecting them. Um the word pishim is the gimatria 10 times alle kim. So the Ben Sasker says this means that you can't defeat them in natural battle. Uh the only way you can you can defeat them is through um through uh spiritual forces that are way beyond uh my understanding. So I'm not going to speculate on another is Yeshal. Yeshal also has he has the the the from says a gave a very very strong power that he's able to be directly connected to Hashem their is the way they davin is a very um legitimate acceptable form of prayer and they're able to connect directly to Hashem in a way that other nations aren't. Other nations, their source of power comes from when Jews uh commit sins. When Jews sin, that gives power to the other nations. Ishmal is the only nation that's able to uh subside on its own power. So, they're very hard to defeat. And then the third is Amalik. And um Amalik is a war that we've been dealing with generation after generation. So, Perk Derbles mentions 10 nations that we are going to be fighting against. um before Messiah. And among those 10 nations, seven of them are just random Ammon, Moyov, whatever people who happen to be residing in the area, but three of those are Yeshol, Amalik and the Pushim. And that they are intermingled all across the uh the region. So, uh, within all of these all of these different, uh, battles that we've been fighting across more than a half dozen theaters, uh, there've been elements of Yesh, Pishim and Amalik in all of them. And um the only way to be able to win this battle is with certain spiritual powers that in its most simplistic form come from us treating each other um the way we're meant to. Uh Jewish unity loving other Jews especially when it's not easy to uh that gives us the uh the power to be able to overcome our enemies. So this is a basic overview of what the player talks about and um uh I think uh I think this this covers enough of a of a basic that we can we can uh try to delve deeper go into some questions and see what we come away with. >> Okay for the opening um very very interesting I'm just looking it up now. I'm just reading um everybody can listen to it later and hear it again. Um but definitely this week's after open the English and read it. It's they're very very fascinating. We're going to do >> well to be to be just to be clear the um English translations most of them were were written before October 7th um and even anything more recent does not factor in the uh events that have been happening as the literal translation. It's it's when you understand when you're aware of all of the major events that have been happening and that are currently unfolding and you look into the into you see how every single puss matches exactly with what's playing out in the world right now. So if you look at um any of the existing translations and it doesn't translate kamas as literally kamas um I I just remind you to check the tarum tarum translates kamas as hostages. um look into uh the Benet Saskar has a has a safer on on um on a uh the Malba and Abarbanel understand as talking about the the conflict that's going to unfold right before Msiah. In fact, um the Malbum says that right at the end of IA is when the war of Gym is uh is going to begin. So that's where we're holding in the timeline. Look at the translations, but also uh try to try to see it from the uh prism of the current events and how they fit into the words of the Na'vi. >> Okay, let's [clears throat] take a poll. Um everybody, we have tricks here. Obviously, he's a little bit in a different circle than we are, and he sees things a little bit maybe differently and he has maybe, you know, he's looking different. So, anybody has any questions? Everything's on the table. Feel free to ask. Let's take a very basic poll and then we'll go into live questions. Okay? Anybody wants to ask a live question, please text us over here on the chat and live go first. Here we [clears throat] go. First question. When you hear about the antmetic incidents in news, what shows up most for you? Five possible answers. Fear and anxiety, anger, sadness, numbness. I gotten used to it or confusion. Second question, when you hear difficult news about the world, what do you usually do? First option, I dive when I turn for strength and clarity. B, I try to stay informed and educated. C, I avoid the news. It's too much. Or D, I take practical steps to feel safe or more prepared. I don't know what that means. Maybe buy a gun. Three. Um, do you think the White House approach to Israel affects how safe the Jews feel in America? Four possible answers. Yes, strongly affects it. B, somewhat. C, no, not really. Or no. D, no connection at all. interesting questions. Okay, >> just to get like into it a little bit. Let's share the polls. Okay, two more sec five more seconds and then we're going to end it. >> Well, uh the option I would go with for number one isn't uh one of the choices. Okay, let's let's end it and then let's share it with everybody. Okay, number one, when you hear about antic news in the news in the news, what emotion shows up for you? So, by far most people will feel fear and anxiety. 43%. 18% anger, 21% sadness, 12% numbness, 6% confusion. So, basically, I would say most people overall are feeling tremendous amount of anxiety and fear. Being honest, I mean, we live in the world if you open the news, if you don't open the news, maybe you're good to go. But if you read any type of news, Jewish news, not Jewish news, doesn't seem too pretty, Turks, what would you answer? Not from the five answers. >> Yeah. Um, so if you understand the the the role and purpose that anti-semitism plays, um, anti-semitism is not a fluke. It is very much a part of the master plan. Um, anti-semitism isn't here to punish us as much as it is to encourage us to turn closer to Hashem. What do I mean? Look at look at me, right? So, I wear a white shirt in public. I have my pace, my beard. If not for the cap, I would be very obviously Jewish, right? Um, now that's a joke. That's the stereotype of the of the who puts on a cap and he thinks that he blends in perfectly with his surroundings. This is my my public face. This is uh how I walk around in public. I am not scared of anti-semites. Um I really am not. I pass their protests very often on the way to to get to work. And the reason I'm not scared of them is because I put on fillin. Any Jew who puts on fillain has nothing to be to be fearful of. And so the the point of antise-semitism, it's not directed against me. It's directed against people who who don't have a very uh close connection to Yiddish and um the kinds of people who are closer to assimilating. It's to remind them, hey, you're not one of us. We don't want you. I'm not the um obviously I'm I'm a very uh open target, but at the same time they're not um nobody can harm me unless Hashem decided that that's what's going to happen, which if in that case it would happen anywhere. So um they don't go after the confident Jews. They're they're scared of the confident Jews. They go after the Jews who are trying to hide the Judaism. Those are the ones that that they target and those are the ones who tend to be the u tend to have the most anxiety because they don't understand the the role that anti-semitism plays. Now, not to be dismissive of the 2,000 years of anti-semitism and the people have gotten hurt and have gotten killed by it. The point is it exists to remind us of what our true purpose in life is. It exists to remind us that we will never be one of them. The best thing we can do uh let me give you an example. Okay. Why is there um why do so many people right now believe so many ridiculous lies about the Jewish people? anyone posts something on social media against the Jews, they're going to get thousands of people that are going to retweet it and like it and comment on it and they'll just accept it at face value no matter how ridiculous it is. Why is that? Well, for one, when we accept lashinhara against fellow Jews, that gives them the power to spread lashhar against us. So, in a sense, what's the anti-semite doing? He's reminding us of of how devastating and how hurtful Lashinhara is. If we get this message and if enough of us resolve to change, then they're no longer going to have this particular kind of power. See what I'm saying? So everything that they're doing is a reflection of what it is that we have we as Jews have to fix. Essentially, they are messengers of Hashem. They're not um like I said, they're not a fluke. They're not a um they're not a mistake. [snorts] They are part of the design. And the sooner we're able to understand the role that they play and how it's meant to help us change to become better people, the longer the state of fear and anxiety is going to last. Okay. Does that make sense? >> Yeah. Very good. Let's go to the next question. When you hear difficult news about the world, what do you usually do? 52% of people they turn to for strength and clarity. 29% they try to stay informed and educated. 12% avoid the news, it's too much. 6% take practical steps to feel safer and more prepared. I >> I mean all of these are are very um it's not that all of these are valid suggestions. Uh this we need an all of the above approach. You have to dive and turn for strength and clarity. Stay informed and educated. Avoid the news when it's too much because it will get too much at times. and definitely take practical steps to feel uh to feel safer. You absolutely want to do all of these four. >> Okay, let's go to the next question cuz people want to ask live. Let's let's get to it. There's so much to cover tonight. Three. Do you feel the Do you think the White House approach to Israel affects how safe Jews feel in America? Most people feel yes strongly affects it. And 45 and 42% feel somewhat. So the the 90% of the people here tonight believe the way the White House deals with Israel and that whole situation is what makes Jews feel safe in America. 11% no and 2% no sh whatsoever. Turks, what what's your opinion on that? >> Okay. So Adam destroyed the BA mikt. there uh a few that say that Edom as part of uh you know you broke it you got to you got to fix it that Edm has to enable us to rebuild not that they have to be the ones to build it but they have to give us the green light and enable us to rebuild the bas mikdash um I'm jumping straight to the end to the endgame for a second what does this mean this means that the leaders of Adam have an opportunity to write a historic wrong of 2,000 years and if they take this opportunity then they're going to Hashem is going to take that very uh strongly into account. So we see a White House that understands this at least on a on a subconscious level and they have gone above and beyond to do whatever makes sense to them uh as being in the best interest of the protection of the Jewish people. In fact, uh there are cphabala that talk about that before Mashiah is going to come, Asov is going to have one final chance to do chuva. And what does Asov's chuva look like? Asov has to make up for the things that he messed up in his lifetime. So what was Asov supposed to do in his lifetime? He was supposed to protect Jacob while he sits and learns. He's supposed to help the Jewish people, make it easier for Jews to to learn Tyra, uh protect the Jewish people, um acknowledge that the entirety of Israel belongs to the Jewish people. This is what Asov was supposed to do in his lifetime and he didn't. So, it's possible that through this administration that Asov is is finally able to have some closure for 2,000 years of of Asov doing the opposite of what his mission originally had been. Um, we have an opportunity for them to to make it up to us in a very significant way all the way at the very very end of this uh 2000 plus year saga. However, if uh the United States uh at any point chooses not to uh not to take a proactive role, uh the Jewish people are going to be saved regardless. It's um more a matter of does a part of Edemption. And for millions of Christians here in America, the answer is yes. And they've been um they've been some of our uh most steadfast supporters and the Nav'i Amish does uh does uh reference the fact that there will be a edime there will be remnants of Edim the the good people of Edim the ones who supported the Jews that they are going to survive and they're the ones that will point up with their finger and say the entire world will acknowledge the oneness of Hashem. who's going to be around to acknowledge it? Those were the um those who stood by the side of the Jewish people when it was unpopular, when it was dangerous to do so. So those people are going to be rewarded. So going back to the White House, um overall the White House uh has has done things that have been uh very very positive uh for the um for the Jewish people. At the same time, uh, we have no guarantee that this is going to last forever. So, and if and there have been times when we've been concerned like, hey, the White House seems to be uh saying things that make us feel uncomfortable that uh don't seem to have our best interest at heart. Well, when that happens, think back to what I said about anti-semitism. It's always a message for us to improve ourselves. It's always about us becoming better people. And so if if we do if we do what we're what we're supposed to do, then we really don't need to be so concerned about what's happening in the news because as long as we're doing the right thing, that's a step in the right direction. the more people who do the right thing and every person in their own life, you know what that right thing is. You know what the right thing is? The the the says, "How does a person know what their purpose on this world is?" How do you know what you're supposed to fix, what you're supposed to correct? We don't know this. We have no idea. We really don't know. We're we're grappling blindly. However, you know who does know? Your knows. Your knows your purpose in this world. And so your Yateshara is going to go out of his way to make it difficult for you to achieve your mission. And so he he suggests he says look at where the Sahara is expending most of his efforts and realize that that is precisely the thing that you have to fix. So that's uh that's the uh answer to the the White House question. >> Okay, everybody all questions on the table. everybody with text member live questions go first. Um there's so much to ask. Let's go first. You're on. Hi. >> Hi. Okay. I have several questions. Let's start with the last point that you said in terms of um what we can do to um correct within our people. What is your best guess as am what would you say from your perspective? Uh, so why was the basikdash destroyed? Do >> you remember the I'm sorry. >> Please tell me because the answer that I have that we all have apparently we don't really understand what is. >> Okay. Um, we understand what is that? We understand. The question is what what does mean? What is the opposite of means hating someone for no reason? That's that's um does not necessarily mean loving someone for no reason because that's easy. You see a you see a Jew with a flat tire on the side of the road, you're able to help them. You'll help him even if he's a total stranger. You'll you'll uh do acts of kindness even when you don't have any reason to. You'll do it anyway. The real challenge is loving someone when you have every justifiable reason to hate the guy. And the point is that hate is about it's about the it's about the person hating. It's not about whether the recipient of the hate deserved to be hated or not. It's don't hate your fellow in your heart. Don't hate other people especially when you have every reason to hate them. Um the example I give is let's say uh notoria. So you see a group of people holding uh Palestinian flags and they're marching with their enemies. What's your first instinct? Your instinct is of like you want to hate them. But guess what? You hating them doesn't change them. It only hurts yourself. Don't hate them. Don't hate them. Just treat them like you would treat any other Jews. >> What should be the response? any group of people. >> So, okay. Uh uh yeah, I see uh coach is uh a little something to talk about because >> well I mean that I imagine that that dismantling that is an entire conversation in and of itself. It's a very complicated with to not hate somebody really. We're going to have to get into a much fuller conversation. So, with your permission, can I move on to a different question for now? >> Um, sure. But I'm not convinced it's complicated at all. Uh, let me show you why how it's not that complicated. Why do our enemies feel so comfortable in the company of Jews with long beards and strimals? What makes them feel so comfortable? I mean these people they also say they say they also believe that Msiah is going to come. They believe that the B mikdash will be rebuilt and our bias will go back to the Jewish people. They believe all of this. So why do our enemies feel so comfortable around them? And the answer is when we push other Jews away that gives the the Sultan the power to use those Jews against us. But if we proactively decide that we're going we're going to love them no matter what. No matter how hurtful and painful it is, if we just make this effort, then then our enemies will no longer feel comfortable around these people and they will reject them. The only reason why they're accepting them is because we rejected them. When a Jew rejects another Jew, that gives that gives our enemies power over those people and then they could use them against us. That it's it's not that complicated. Okay, with your permission, can I go on to a different question? >> Okay, thank you. So, is it does it um is it incumbent upon us in America to begin to think about making aliyah in a serious way? And what about making an alliance with the Christians to help us do that, to help finance that return and mass? >> Uh I mean to make aliyah, the Israeli government will finance uh I mean they'll they'll pay your airfare and not not groups not whole groups not enmas they won't >> so for that we need a bigger larger philanthropical um effort and I don't think that's to be found inside of I don't think anybody is coming forward and saying let's help everybody start to move >> right um and even if everybody does move is there enough housing in Israel I mean you have 1.5 million Orthodox Jews orthodox in in the United States, where are we all moving to? >> So, there are prefab option. There are really prefab options in Europe that, you know, are being considered. In fact, you probably saw what I saw this week that the Israeli government is simulating um a mass return. How can they absorb 800 people a day? They're already beginning to do those drills because they see what's going on and what's unfolding. >> Yes. Yes. Yes. Um anybody who is able to make aliyah um if uh your whoever you turn to for spiritual guidance uh tells you that now is the time to do it you definitely should at least ask the question and if they say do it then then do it. Um that's uh at the same time anyone who is not in a position to leave and many of us have um elderly family members that are not able to make the journey that that rely on us. Um many of us have for all kinds of reasons um might not be able to just get up and and uh and leave. So take comfort in knowing that this is like any withdrawal process to be able to have a smooth withdrawal you need to have some people stay behind to help facilitate the withdrawal on behalf of the rest of us. So from a spiritual point of view there's something called nitus. These are shards of holiness that are are trapped um and um and that rely on the the prayers and good deeds of Jewish people in order to uh to give these shards of mis mst mystical holiness um their uh their proper uh tikun. So, anyone who's still in in gulus, it's most likely because they're still here to help be part of the process that rectifies whatever still needs to be rectified and that as soon as their task has been fulfilled, they will find a very easy smooth path uh to to >> that is very comforting. And if I could just do one very quick final question. Um, so as you said, the McGill right now, we're living through the story. We don't know. It's not over yet. We're living through it. So who is Donald Trump? Um, who who is he really in the context of of Amnestro? And um, he's been tasked with something very large. How does the final showdown look between and >> I'm sorry, the final showdown uh, >> between Edon and and like the way you were talking about it before. How does that finally unfold? How does it play out? Are we looking at that imminently? >> Okay, so Trump has uh an opportunity to rectify as I uh as I mentioned a few minutes ago um for on behalf of Edin on behalf of Asov. Um Asov was supposed to be one of our patriarchs. We have four matriarchs. We were supposed to have four patriarchs and Asov um was not up to the task and we lost him which was a very very uh devastating thing for the Jewish nation to lose one of the most powerful souls that ever came down that was supposed to be one of our forefathers. Um there were supposed to the tribes were supposed to be split six for Asov, six for Yakov. Um so half of the Jewish nation has been lost. uh the Jewish people can't expect a gulma, a complete redemption without Asov being made whole. And so Trump represents this opportunity. um whether Trump himself um acknowledges it on this level is not relevant because all of the things that he's been doing and saying especially recently is as if he his nishama definitely knows this and his nishama is guiding him uh to say what he needs to say and to do what he needs to do. I'll give you one example. Uh not this summer, but the previous summer, uh we're talking about maybe two weeks after the famous assassination attempt on Trump's life. I had the opportunity to ask him the following question. So, he'd been talking about the fact that God had saved his life. And I asked him, you know, you're you're you're acknowledging that God saved your life. Have you ever thought about why God saved your life? And he thought about it, and he wasn't sure what to say. And then he said, you know, maybe God saved my life so that I can save America and maybe so that I can even save the world. And he's repeated that refrain many times throughout his campaign. He said it uh in his victory party um at election night. He said it in his inauguration. Uh this has become his his his focus, which is to to improve the world, to to make the world safer for everybody. and look at all the peace initiatives that he's undertaken as a result. So he realizes that Hashem put him into this place at this point in time for something very special and to help prepare the world for the era of Msiah. Um so that's that's the role he plays. It's also interesting that the destruction that I references um are things that Trump had been talking about for more than a decade already. So if you look in he says anybody who remembers Trump's um the uh announcement he made >> when he came down that golden escalator there's one line that anybody who remembers anything from the speech remembers that one line and that is what he said about Mexico. He says Mexico what does Mexico send? Mexico sends in criminals and rapists. Some of them I assume are good people. So what does Aadia say? He says when criminals enter your country with rapists and what's the third category of people are sharecroers. Who's the third group Trump said? He says and I assume some of them are good people. Um just to give you one example. Um, so there are a lot of things that strike me as there's no way that Trump himself knew this, but it's clear that his soul is aware and that his soul is guiding him in the right direction. >> Thank you very much. Thank you. >> Thank you. >> Let's go to the next question. >> Hi. Hi, sir. >> Hi. Hi, Mr. Turks. Hi. I have a question. You talk about Edom. Actually, it's two questions. Um, you talk about Edom, you mean specifically the Christians, uh, and Europeans? What about China, these other countries that seem very powerful now? Should we worry, um, I don't know if they're lumped in this in the same, you know, in the same category? But I, you know, as Edom, but should we worry about those, I mean, those kind of countries? I I don't know what influence they might have in the long run. >> Yeah. So let me let me tell you something very interesting. Um you look at so I mentioned earlier that the Ben Sask says that all of the the totality of knowledge and innovation is going to come down exclusively to Adam. When you look at China, China doesn't innovate. China only copies. They copy and they steal. >> Oh boy. You look at you look at the um the Muslim countries, they don't innovate. They're they're only able to to purchase knowledge and weaponry from the west, but they're not able to create their own. You look at the African continent, they're not innovating. The only ones who have innovated going back the last 150 years is Edom, the West, Europe, the United States, uh Canada, Australia, just the Western Coalition. So, China is definitely not part of this co of this coalition of Adam. Furthermore, China never had any ambitions over the land of Israel. They never tried to conquer it. They never staked any claim on it. So, China is its own entity here. Uh similar to North Korea, similar to India. Um >> what about um I should say what about Iran? That's my second question. I mean, he's here. I mean the the Iranians are not Arabs but they yes yes there's that they're they have their own brand of Islam actually they're kind of weird but are they more like jaffit I don't see you know I hear these different tribe or people in the Bible that represented certain ethnic groups but are they would they be lumped in the same category as China then I mean in the because it seems like they're a big danger but I don't >> yeah but they're clearly yeah they're they're clearly part of the coalition of Yeshal. Yeshal means again we're talking about coalition wise >> they are part of Islam. They are part of the Islamic confederacy so to speak. >> Um it it it doesn't it it doesn't go with um genetics or ethnicity as much as it goes with um cultural alignment. >> And um and so to go back to what Schiffer was asking, how is this all going to go down? Um it's got to go down that Yeshal is going to um they're going to identify a particular day in which Edom is going to be vulnerable and they are going to message all of their allies and say today is the day. Let's do it right now. and they are going to unleash chaos across all major um western cities that they have access to based on the way I describes it. Um you look at the protesters and you look at at how much they've been testing the the grounds for such a scenario. We're very close. We're very close to them. Uh and so the way I understand it based on Avadia is they're going to make a decision to send their troops um over to a distant border uh which I uh geoloccate as being the border between Russia and Ukraine. So they're going to send their troops over to the border of Russia, leaving their own cities unguarded. Um, but if they don't do that, then Russia eventually breaks through and threatens to to to to take over the entire Western Europe. So essentially, they're going to be they're going to have two really really bad options. Do you send your troops to to um uh as a warning that Putin should not uh should not uh break out beyond Ukraine or do you uh and then leave your own cities unguarded? Or do you keep them at home and say whatever, we'll take our chances with Putin, but we can't we can't uh we can't uh you know, our our police force isn't adequate enough to uh defend us. Should the mobs assume they would use assume they would join with NATO. I mean that that would be the whole NATO thing. They're not going to send all the American troops there. >> No, no, not American troops. You're talking about um you know, France and the UK, you know, they're talking about sending a coalition of soldiers over to the the >> street their streets themselves are out of control. >> Yeah. I mean, you have you have a half a million protesters. Okay. Within this these half a million protesters, you need just a few thousand with AK-47s. just a few thousand of them. They can wipe out entire cities if if if the arm is out of town. They could they could take everything down. >> Talking about a civil war, internal war. >> Yeah, but it's not a civil war you're talking about. I mean, would you describe October 7th as a civil war? >> People within? >> Yeah, it's people from within, but they're people that are are not indigenous, as they say, to those parts of the world. Here's here's a question somebody sent in. Um, I'm going to write it like this. I don't want to sound dramatic, but the atmosphere in the world feels different. Part of me wonders, is this what 1938 might have felt like, or am I just anxious? >> 1938 did not feel like 1938 because most people did not know what was going on in 1938. Um, I mean, what was what you saw? You read a newspaper a few times a week. Like, what were you aware of in in the 1930s? Chris is when the world realized just how just how bad things were in Germany. But until then, it was life as usual for most people. Just life went on. So uh and then I mean the Holocaust itself, how many how many people that were not victims of the Holocaust knew about the Holocaust while it was happening. I mean if you were in Russia, you had no idea what was going on in in the European uh countries. Jews in Hungary had no idea. 1944 they had no idea what was happening. So um 1938 did not feel like 1938. we um we're the anxiety is a lot more palpable because we are so uh connected to what's going on uh in the world. But here's something interesting because as much as we're living in scary times we're half the time what are we doing? We're looking at memes about the news and laughing. You know, anytime something happens in the news, there's someone has a funny video about uh about the Ayatollah this about the beepers that there's always something to laugh about. And so my read of that is we we should return with part of the is that we shouldn't be um we shouldn't be uh sitting in bunkers shivering. We should be able to go through life and see the absurdity and see the humor uh in the scariest of situations. Imagine uh imagine you lived in the times of the prophets and you saw a vision of 400 stars, 400 planets filled with chaos and destruction flying through the stratosphere um at insane speeds towards the land of Israel. And you'd be like this this would be the most frightening thing you've ever seen if you lived in any other generation. But to us, WE'RE LIKE, "AH, LOOK AT IRAN. What was that? 400 this time. All right, try your luck." Like, we're just laughing about it. We're laughing about it because we know Hashem is going to protect us. So, as much as people are dealing with anxiety, keep in mind that we're not losing our minds. We're still able to find the humor. we're still able to to take comfort in in knowing that it is going to work out in the end. And we do have Sparum that tell us what we can expect. So I would say on the one hand, 1938 didn't have as much anxiety because they didn't know what was happening in the world. However, the little they did know was so much more frightening than what we're going through now because we have each other. We can have an open conversation. people all around the world from all backgrounds can have these kinds of very real and and uh sometimes dark but necessary conversations. And this is something that no other generation had. And this is a this is part of the the mercy of Hashem that it is being made easier for us um to to to survive and to get through it. >> Okay, let's go to the next next question over here. Great question. sent sometimes I ask myself if the liberal young among today's youth is the the lean something new and every generation goes through a phase like but the question they're asking is like it seems like the college like if the older Democrats are still very like more normal sort of but you see the younger generation is very like socialist and psycho and very pro anti-Israel pro like all this insanity is that something that we this is like it's like shocking for us to see it because like are you cuckoo like you walk around in college with like kafias like you have no half these people are gay or whatever they would be in Gaza they would be killed you know I mean they're the one like they're so out of their minds is this something normal in every generation or this is something weird in our generation >> well I can't speak on behalf of any generation other than ours right >> in history >> um your opinion on that >> yeah the the the youth of every generation weren't some very bizarre uh uh ideologies um nothing like what we've been experiencing. I mean, in the age of social media, it's um this is this definitely feels like uncharted territory. >> I mean, we're we're not we're not just looking at the left. We're looking at the uh the horseshoe effect, the convergence of extreme left and extreme right, saying, "Hey, we don't agree about anything else, but the one thing we can agree on is the Jews, right?" So, let's just put aside our differences and let's hate the Jews together. So, you know, it's absurd, but it's uh it's happening. So, here here's a different question somebody sent in. Just a second. When things get bad economically, Jews often get blamed. I find myself thinking, is that is that happening again or am I overreacting? No, that seems to be happening again. Absolutely. >> And >> I mean, look, there there's even if the economy was doing great, they would people would still would still hate us. Um, but >> before Hitler, isn't that was that wasn't that his power? Like things started economically doing bad and then he started blaming a lot of that on the Jews. Wasn't that a little bit of the the fire? Uh but yeah, but uh I mean look, we're not experiencing what they were going through. I mean, there's no like Great Depression uh wheelbarrows full of cash kind of dynamic right now. Um so, so to say that this is I mean, I'm sure the economy plays a role, but um uh this is definitely this is bigger than just the economy. Um, in a sense it it seems as if Hashem is um putting every single person on this planet on the record. Like what do you think of Jews? Yay or nay? And we're getting closer and closer to every person taking a side. Right. So, this is um Yeah, it's interesting. It's it's the one thing that everyone has an opinion on right now. economy notwithstanding. >> All right, who's up next? One second. >> One second. Okay, let's go to the next question. Anybody wants ask a question? Text. Okay, let's go to the next question over here. Interesting question. I mean, we spoke about a little bit. Let's get a little more clarity. Somebody says, "There's so much happening in the news now. I don't know what's real anymore because a lot of news seems fake and a lot of news seems very, you know, construed." Sometimes I ask myself, are we actually really in danger or it's more fear than it's actually reality? Like what's your opinion on that? >> Um, it doesn't matter if it's real or not. Um, if you know what you're meant to do, and that is use it to uh to become a better person. Um, channel that anxiety into something positive and productive. um whether it's real or not is not relevant. The only thing that's real is what's expected of us as Jews. Okay. Second. >> Okay. Maybe till we wait for a question. >> Yeah. So, sorry. He was right on mute. Hi, how are you? >> Yes. I wanted to ask from what I see now um like usual and for most people even Trump and his family Jared and whoever they all have personal interests the fact that they're dealing with Qatar and the these the our worst enemies uh Syria Qatar Egypt those are the people that he's going to to work out a peace plan and it keeps going back to the two state with having Hamas next door to us the there's so much personal interest in it. Where does that leave us? Is this is he really he mean he might mean well but like and like most people it just goes to his personal his personal thing and what's his priority? He wants to get a name. He m wants to, you know, he he wants the money to come in because he promised it would. He has his his motives and his things which he's entitled to and a lot of good has come. Nobody can take it away from him. But where does that leave us? Uh very uh look Judy, you're you're right that um this is a very fickle world we live in and things can turn against us very quickly especially given some of the the proposed alliances that you mentioned. Uh ultimately we need to use this as an opportunity to uh strengthen ourselves and to become better people so that that uh reality does not become a thing. Right. I mean, if if >> that's always that's our job, but I mean how you were discussing how safe we are. So I'm asking does it are we putting on blinders because we do have aside from Avaja, we do have World War II and we see what happened to all the people who refuse to, you know, deal with the reality. It'll never happen here. It'll never happen here. You mentioned Hungary. My family's from there. My mother went when she heard that they would be transporting to have clothes made, travel clothes designed for it. That's how much you're right that they didn't know. >> Yeah. Wow. >> Yeah. She went to have her travel clothes made because she heard that she may go be going on a train >> or whatever. So, you're 100% right. Are we being blinders that it can't happen here when it is happening here when they are blocking shools and it really is happening here when they are busting windows when they are doing things here >> and you mentioned that they don't that that they don't attack the really from they attack that's they attack all the really from too >> oh I didn't say they don't attack the from I said if you're from you have nothing to worry about from being attacked because if if you're supposed to be attacked, you're you're going to be you're going to be hit anywhere. A tree could land on you. I mean, if if um Hashem decided that it's your time to go, you're know you'll go. Um but uh they they do tend to uh take a step back when they see a Jew carrying themselves with confidence. Um they usually don't they usually um they're more likely to mess with a Jew who's trying to hide their Star of David necklace than they are with a Jew that very uh proudly procla proclaims their Judaism and and has not and and walks as if they have nothing to fear. Um but uh look um I'll tell Iadia says that the only safe place in the world is going to be that's going to be the only safe place in the world. So, >> so we should go >> and not back >> if you're a if you're able to. Sure. Um, he doesn't say that everybody in Shalim is going to be is uh he doesn't say that u that there won't be casualties in Shalim. He just says that in the US there will be refuge. >> And the understanding is that the rest of the world is going to be very frightening. But >> but it also means now that we know this, now that we know that it's going to be very scary, I mean, our enemies have never been as um as uh plentiful as they are, right? We've never had more people at any one time on planet Earth that hates us. And the people that hate us hate us for more reasons than any other um uh generation of anti-semites because they hate us for every single reason that every other generation hated us combined because they've compiled all of these uh liels from across all the centuries and they cite all of these as the reason why they hate us. And they're also um in better communication than they've ever been in in any other point in history. So, you would assume that we're hated by so many across the entire world for so many reasons and they're able to uh to unify. You would imagine that they'd be wiping us out right now. Um and yet it is very rare for a Jewish person to be to be murdered for being Jewish. It it happens. It's tragic. It doesn't happen on the the level that it happened in any other uh any other point in time when when Jews were literally hunted down on the streets and and murdered for being Jewish. And we had that all across the world so many times over. We're not experiencing it now on this level, even though the hatred is is far and away astronomically greater than it had ever been by a long shot. So you have to also leave some room for perhaps Hashem is giving us an opportunity to do chuva now and that we don't have to conclude that the end result is going to be another um 1939 1940 type of dynamic that we're going to do the right thing and Hasheb is going to deliver us from our enemies. Yeah. >> I mean, look, Judy, you have you have every justification of being concerned. I mean, we've we we study our history. We teach our children our history. We know we know what we've been through. We're not naive. >> We're not naive. At the same time, we also realize the fact that all of us, every single person on this broadcast, the fact that every single one of us is alive right now, in spite of all the hatred that we've been facing is miraculous, >> right? Okay. >> So, let's let's lead into the miracles and uh let's anticipate more and greater miracle. You can't rely on miracles exclusively. You have to do what you can to protect yourself, your family, your community. At the same time, look, look for the miracles. They're happening all around us every day. >> Yeah. Thank you. somebody some somebody's somebody sent in that they struggle with um you know walking around looking Jewish like you spoke about it but you know whether it's should they show it if they don't have to or maybe they should put in um the um just to you know be proud that I'm a Jew. Um, so look, let's say you're walking down the street. Yeah. And someone uh approaches you and uh starts asking you about what they call the genocide in Gaza. What's your like what is what is the just what is the best uh thing you can do? What what are you going to do? You're not going to outrun them. So what? You're going to taunt them? You're going to start arguing with them? Does that is that is that really the best thing you can do in that kind of setting? Or just uh empathize? Cuz look, if this person knows people in Gaza who have been killed that they're sad about it and if they've seen video footage that might not be real, but that they they believe is real, then they're hurting. So why do you have to provoke them? Just feel their pain. Acknowledge their pain. Don't say anything you don't believe. But what I would do is I would say, "Yeah, it's uh it's very it's very sad what's going on right now. This is this is this is so unfortunate. I I I pray for all the innocent victims on all sides." You know, you could be you could be honest and sincere about it. Um we don't want innocent people to die. We never want innocent people to die. If you look at the extent to which the uh the Israeli army puts itself in danger in order to uh to try to save the lives of of Gazan civilians. You know, of course, we don't want innocent people to die. So, find common ground. You don't have to get into a shouting match as if it's a social media site and you're you're anonymous. You do that. Just be a mench. the person's hurting, just respond as if you would to anyone else who's going through a hard time and then you you don't keep uh you try to keep the conversation short and polite and uh you know, move on with your day. >> You're saying because you're not going to get anywhere with it with the conversation. >> I mean, what's the point? They they >> want to clarify. >> Maybe you want to clarify. It it's it's you're not only you're not going to get anywhere arguing, but >> to their mind, you are you are they will assume that you're doing what the the Holocaust deniers have been doing to us for the past few decades. This is the image that they have of you when you're when you're saying there is no genocide, whatever. As soon as you start arguing with them, you're just giving them that impression of you. And so if they're feeling provoked, they might strike you. Don't give them that opportunity. Don't say don't say anything stupid that's that's going to get you hurt. Now, if um a a group of huslims is chasing after you in the street and they want to beat you up because you're Jewish and you didn't say anything or do anything to provoke it, then you know this is what Hashem decided. There's nothing you can do to get away from it. What are you going to do? Okay, let's go to the next question. You're on >> me. Oh, okay. Um, I wanted to ask you, why do you think there are so many Jews that side with Hamas, like I have these ridiculous conversations with people who think that the poor people in Gaza, the poor, you know, the starvation, the whatever it, they believe all the lies. And I know some of it is generational. I But it's really not. I mean, I have people my age who are like yelling at me that how dare we do this and I'm like thinking I'm in a alternative universe. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. That um Yeah, that that definitely sums it up. And we are both living in alternative universes. In the universe that they're living in, they have somehow allowed themselves to believe that we are as evil as that which our grandparents uh survived. They they they are so confused as to how can the Jewish people behave in ways that they think reminds them of certain villains from 80 years ago. Yes, >> it is very bizarre. >> It is very bizarre. It It is extremely bizarre. I'm tired of doing this apology tour all the time, you know, like I just I I'm asking them like, "Where do you get your information? Why do you think that that's true? Why do you think your own Jews are lying? Why do you think Israel's lying?" And they have no answer. They don't have one. >> Um, >> but they keep pushing it on me anyway. >> You have to accept their existence as a reality that we're part of. You don't it's not it's not your place to to try to save them or change their viewpoint or correct them. Um let me ask you this. How many people have you successfully been able to um to like how many such people did you manage to convince? >> None. >> Exactly. So, so the, so the Baskar references these people and he says that you're going to see Jewish people that are going to be siding with their enemy. >> Yes. >> And the reason and the reason that's that is going to be the case is he identifies them >> as the embodiment of the Arav therav the um coach. How would you describe the or >> do we assume everyone knows? Whoever doesn't know, send them email. >> Okay. The um so he says that the Arav are going to join her enemies and if they're in the camp of our enemies at the time when when Hashem is ready to wipe out our enemies, then they're going to get caught up in it also. So um they need they need to be very careful. Um, you know, we we I I I referenced earlier that the reason our enemies are able to convince so many people to believe lies about us is because we spread falsehoods against other Jews in the form of lashhara. >> Mhm. >> And so when we do that, we give them our enemies this same power. So you want to know why are Jews believing that other Jews are capable of behaving this way? Why do Jews believe anything we're told negative about other Jews? Period. I mean, I think this is like the important lesson over here that we need to take away. Look at how far someone can be led astray by believing lashenhar against Jews to the point that they are convinced that the Jewish nation, Hashem's people, are worse than the Nazis. That's how destructive Lashinhara is. And so we should resolve to learn the halas of lashhara and to to become more aware of what is lashhara and strategies on how to avoid it. And this another part of the question that I wanted to ask you had to do with the Republican party and people like um Nick Fuentes or Tucker Carlson and even Senator Vance. They employ like rhetoric. Vice President Vence. >> Yeah, I'm sorry. I said Senator, [laughter] Vice President. >> He's he's almost he's almost a vice president as long as he was senator. >> I live in Ohio. So, >> so I'm sorry. Employee rhetoric. Um and like you know the classical anti-semitic themes about Jewish power and influence like so like what do we do? What do you think the Republican party is beginning to become? >> It's kind of scary. And not that it's not on the Democratic side because I it is >> but and how seriously should we view this trend? >> Uh view the trend as a gentle reminder that we cannot rely on a political party and that the only savior we have is Hashem. That's the the takeaway. any group of people that we assume are are will be there for us, we're finding out we can't rely on them anymore. >> Correct. >> Maybe they will be there for us, but we can't count on it. So, we got to we got to turn to the source that we've always turned to. That's the that's the reminder and that's the message here. >> Okay. Thank you. >> Sure. Many people, many people came tonight and they were um surprised to hear you start opening up with the Na'vi and being into um this forum. Um I'm wondering if you can tell us a little bit how you got into from we know you as the correspondents in the White House into the Na'vi and understanding putting it all together. Maybe you can tell us and also about Msiah. what could you tell us in today's days? >> Okay, so I started my uh journey on Na'vi about uh literally exactly two years ago from this mat shabas uh will be will be exactly two years. It was the mat shabas of the ha of and someone pointed out to me that there's a reference to the kis in the warriors of Yemen. And now in its context the word which is the same letter as translates into panic and your warriors will panic around Yemen. The night of that matashabis was the and uh the world memory hold it very quickly. No one even remembers this, but the largest naval battle uh between allied uh an allied coalition against an adversary, the largest naval battle in history since World War II took place that night. The Matzachabis of Paraslak last year uh two years ago, sorry. Uh between a western coalition of about 30 navies and the Houthis. The battle lasted an hour and a half and the western coalition under the leadership of Joe Biden eventually withdrew after an hour and a half against the Houthis. 30 navies from the United States and mostly eur from Europe ended up fleeing from the Houthis an hour and a half uh after hour and a half of fighting and the Pik says you will panic and flee from Tman which translates into either Yemen or south but either way they fled Yemen in a southward direction and um I saw that then I was like wow that's weird because this is literally happening tonight and then I saw the next p which says which talks about kamas and then the pusk before that which talks about the leader of Adam losing his mind uh or rather the leaders of Edom losing their wisdom. So, and it it I was like, "Wow, this is just this is surreal. This is it's as if I'm reading a description of what's happening right now." So, I started studying it and I went through the entire cafer and I've been uh I I've I'm still on this journey two years later and I'm still finding things and there they're always new things that are still unfolding. Yeah. impressed. If there's one more question somebody wanted to ask and then we're going to go to the closing part, just give me one sec. >> Hi. >> Hi. Okay, two quick things. Um, on a on the whimsical side, AI, what could you just give your best guess of where this where this takes us as Jews? Like what is its purpose really? Well, the era of Messiah is going to be one of perfection. The crops are all are going to grow perfectly. The um I mean imagine AI um agriculture where every crop gets the precise amount of water, precise amount of sunlight, precise amount amount of um of uh fertilizer and they all grow perfect and beautiful and you're able to replicate this all over the world. you're able to um to get free energy, tap into free energy sources. Um people are not going to need to work. We're going to be able to study Torah and and and and pray and praise Hashem all day, every day. Uh this is what a perfect world looks like. And AI is preparing us for this eventuality. Um a a world of of perfection, of precision. What are the the what are the biggest causes of war? Um scarce resources is one of them. You know, most conflicts probably or I I'd say many conflicts are fought over um humanitarian aid. See, we know about UNRA, but we don't know about all the other conflicts that have been a precursor for UNRA. Let's say um let's say you have you get hold of a couple of guns and you're in this uh remote village somewhere. You and your buddies take uh take these guns and they take control of that village by force. Then you reach out to uh the UN and say, "Hey, there's a civil war going on. Send humanitarian aid. People are starving." Footage comes out. UN sends aid. The aid is hijacked and then sold on the sold on the on the black market. People are still starving. UN sends more aid. More aid is hijacked. Sold on the black market. The next town over sees, hey, these guys have a good deal going. They grab some guns. They try to grab some of the aid trucks. You see the pattern? You see what happens? Before long, you have incentivized war. So, it's not a war over scarce resources as much as it's a war over stealing uh humanitarian aid. So, that's one reason why wars are fought. Another reason why wars are fought is um there are about about 130 countries that share um water reservoirs on their border. And as soon as you have uh a drought season, things become very testy along those uh those uh regions. So in a world of perfection, nobody needs to loot humanitarian aid because everybody has an abundance. Nobody needs to uh to to fight over uh water uh borders because there is adequate water for everybody. You see what I'm saying? >> I do. I think that's that's also a little bit of a simplified version, but let me just cut to the last part. >> Yes. Of of of course it's a simplified version. >> Yeah. Yes. I I don't think it >> I don't know what I don't know what the I don't know what the complex version looks like yet. It hasn't happened. >> Yeah. >> We only can we can only wrap our mind around the simplified. It's definitely not going to be as simplistic as I laid it out. That's for sure. >> Yeah. No, I I meant it doesn't all just deduce to an economic conundrum. I think there's a lot more around it um than just economics. It's not just a question of abundance or scarcity of resources. But if I could just end with the final this question um as a so as a firm presence in the White House, do you work do you feel that you have to work extra hard to make a kadeshm? And if so, how? >> Uh we all do all the time. Um it's uh just be a mench. be a mench. Doesn't matter if the cameras are are rolling because there will always be some cameras rolling somewhere. See, for me, it's easier because I know the cameras are always rolling. But to someone who doesn't work in the White House, you don't you don't know when the cameras are on. Act like a mench. Don't be the reason why more Jews more uh more haters feel like they have a justification in hating Jews. Don't Don't give them that ammunition. Practice. Always practice. Always be in your best behavior because you never know when that moment's going to come. And also, Hashem is watching. Make him proud. Make Hashem happy. Why not? He's giving you everything. It's the least we can do for him. Okay, one last question. I got to jump on this one cuz I was going to ask you myself. Give me one second. A lot of people text me this question. I just didn't have time to get to it. Hi, unmute. mute. Hi, >> can you hear us? >> Yeah, I had a question. Yeah, I want to know uh the fact that Mandi was elected and we have this uh the Democratic Socialist Party which we know that they have four or five elements of their party is um they espouse a lot of anti-Israel and also in Seattle we know there was an anti-Israel person elected and just in general we see like uh a lot of Democrats are leaning left. How should a Jew look at voting for a Democrat in the future? Or is the same problem really in the Republican party? And should we be scared about voting for them because their policies seem like they could be have a very bad effect on the Jewish people's future. Look, uh I'm not going to I'm not going to te tell you who to vote for or if you should vote altogether or you should abstain from voting. But um what Mandani represents is not as much about Mandani himself as it is about the the trend. And the trend is that Yeshal is becoming more and more audacious and the momentum is clearly on their side and um it is very important to acknowledge it. Um, there will be a final showdown between Edom and Ishmal. And on paper, it would appear as if Adam has everything stacked up in its favor, but we know from Ivadia that Adam is going to uh is going to fall. So um but also you said that all this uh negativity, this anti-semitism and all that should wake up the Jewish people that we should correct ourselves. But if you look at the polls who voted from Amdani, there was a big percentage of Jews that voted from that didn't wake up like you said. So what are the consequences of that? Are they going to wake up or >> Yeah. No. Um, that's that's not my my intent. Again, Mandani himself isn't um he he isn't the problem we need to be focusing on. Um, people who voted for Mdani, if they were sitting with us right now, I'm sure can make an excellent case in favor of why they voted for him. uh you look at who was running against him, you know, I mean, it was not a it was not a very simple election cycle for a lot of people. So, what I'm saying is even in a best case scenario where Mandani ends up exceeding expectations and and ends up going down a John Federmanesque uh character arch, we still need to be mindful of the momentum that his win brings to the nation of Ishal. Even if he himself does not end up uh being part of the problem, the problem goes a lot deeper than just himself and one election in one city. I mean look at London. London had a Muslim mayor for um you know going back what a decade >> in England they have in many cities Muslim mayors. >> Now they have many. Yeah. Yeah. So you see you see the momentum shift, right? You see you see like where they got to. The mayors themselves didn't didn't do anything that uh people are pointing to that were like particularly destructive. It's just they represent the changing mood in the country. >> Right. I'm not just talking about Mamani. I'm talking about the Jewish vote for Meani that a lot of Jews like you're [clears throat] saying that Jewish people should realize if there's anti-semitism that we should wake up and change. It just seems like the opposite. Those people didn't change. They voted for the anti-semitism. >> That's not what change looks like. Change is something uh that's done inwardly. Um it you know, if someone doesn't feel comfortable voting for Cuomo because they believe that Cuomo is the reason why their a family member of theirs died during COVID. I mean, what are you going to do? You going to hold it against them? I mean, again, people had reasons for voting for Mdani. if uh let's say you believe his uh you know if if you believe uh his uh political uh talking points I mean you know there's the fact that that people voted for him does not reflect the the real issue that we're we're facing which is we need to become better people. Voting pattern is not indicative of someone not being a better person. being a better person is, you know, following um uh following what it means to be a good Jew based on how it's laid out in the Torah and ala. >> And thank you. >> Thank you. >> There's people mentioning about like Republicans, Democrats. In both parties, you go a little bit either way, right? >> The Democratic party was always much more pro-Israel, but when you start getting more democratic socialists, you start going that way. Republican you become more even extreme Republican you also become like they both the name where they meet is in hatred like it's not like you know the regular middle is middle but then you have that thing but what what what Rabbi Turks was really referring to is the change in inside of us us becoming more lovable doing our caring for another Jew not speaking that that is the change and you know he's bringing up let's go to the closing part and >> um you know I want to I I I want to take this opportunity One second. Turks. Turks. One second. One second. >> Let's go to the closing part and then we're going to wrap it up. Okay. >> So, I just want to first of all say to Mr. Turks for coming on tonight and giving his time and there was a lot of questions. We try to get to all of them and um we really appreciate it. And for the people that have questions, you could email [email protected]. I don't know if Turks if you want to give you have any email address you can give out to anybody or whatever. If you want to if anybody has any questions whatever they can send it to coach man. coach at email is also my email address and then we'll forward it to you and anybody if he has time he can answer it. Um but let's just go to the closing segment. Just give me one second over here. >> I mean they can uh send me a DM on uh Twitter or any other platform where my DMs are open. >> Right, right, right. What's what's your Twitter thing? >> Uh Jake Turks at Jake Turks. Okay. So again, thank you for coming on Trendik and I think we spoke about a lot tonight. Next week, Sunday, December 7th, we're going to have a surprise guest. It's not confirmed yet. We have a big um lineup coming ahead. So, please stay tuned. We'll send out as as we have the topics and the speakers. So, tonight was definitely mind-blowing in my opinion. Everything is recorded on.com. If any questions, email [email protected] to hear tonight's share 252. Listen to it on all the platforms on YouTube and Spotify and Apple and all the other ones. You can listen to on the phone as well. 732305911. Thank you to all the advertising sponsor scoop fire from JCN. We'll go through the closing. I'll speak first and then you'll leave with you leave us with the final closing thoughts after such a powerful session tonight. Just want to repeat uh some of the things that we heard tonight and what what I felt. Listen, the topic that we did tonight people last night last week's share was about anxiety. So I said ah perfect right before tonight's share so we can put in order. But at the end of the day tonight's share and the topic is really relevant to everybody. I mean, unless you live in a box, everybody's having these thoughts and everybody's having these feelings. It's not like particularly to [snorts] you, everybody feels, you know, the antise-semitism where the world is turning, the comments, it feels like a very different world. Like, you ask somebody 10, 20 years ago, like America, oh, like never in a million years. Now you're like, hey, what happened here? So, this is definitely reality. And I think what Rabbi Turks was trying to bring out tonight at the end of the day, it's 21 in in in next in this week's half. So, read it. Um, it's very interesting. And if you type t type it in if you if you [clears throat] translate it into current events because now you see them unfold and you take the words not of the English translation but more of the tigum that which was written hundreds of years ago you'll see how it ties in at the end of the day this is like a little bit of our story line so we know a little bit the concepts what's going to happen and ultimately we could have sometimes the best presidents the worst presidents we vote and then things change right we don't we don't control everything right I mean it's funny we're just talking about New York like Andrew Cuomo was not the most loved mayor Like most Jews did not like him, you know what I mean? Then like all of a sudden you're begging to have him back because this other guy's coming like God controls. I mean you see it with Trump. One day he could be like this one day like that. Like things change very quickly and rapidly and things change. But what we need have to focus on is not the people in charge. It's Hashem is in charge. And I think the strong point that was made tonight is that really if we work on ourselves and realize this every yet personal like everybody everybody says why me him we have to do our job. We have to do our part each one themselves. Each of themselves and I mean a lot of people mention I mean troll is destroyed many times right throughout history. It's not like you you could run. It's not like that that's your magic answer. If you're not sure you're going to be safe like if it's not meant to be could be anywhere. It's not like you know um we have to turn to Hashem. There is no magic answer. We we are much more open-minded today. There's a lot more communication. you know something happens in some third world country in a second it's on YouTube or some ch some channel and you know about it like so there's a lot more communication which is we have coach we could talk about the topic openly between thousands of people and people who listen to it which is never had that before so it's a mile but the other and the reality knowing is knowledge is also you know it's could be dangerous like because you know things you see what's going on so you live in that reality but um I think we have to continue realizing that nothing changed in the world besides us we have to continue doing our part and really try hard and I think tonight shared the fact that we could really go through that no I mean there's a lot of in this and obviously which he didn't really speak about that too much but there's a whole section over there which is still up to debate but very another good point you said is also that like after you see some events you start able to understand some of the vas what happens like you can't sometimes understand it so clearly until like things play out but anyway it's amazing and thank you for coming on tonight coach Thank you. Thank you, Jake Turk. Thank you for coming on. And uh like we heard, I think it's a good time to stop and tap in, connect, and see where we are. You know, proud Jews um trying to do our best serving Hashem. And sometimes we need to sit down and see, you know, we get too comfortable. what what am I looking for happened to see you know what's my connection to Hashem when I start feeling this anxiety I'm like I don't want to think about it you know it was good till now but there is uh you know Hashem is there is watching Hashem's watching us and there's something that Hashem wants from us but it all it all boils down to you know what's our connection to Hashem what's our connection you know do I feel scared of Hashem can I talk to Hashem when I'm scared and then I'm scared is scared of everything then yeah it's uh time to reflect if something there's obviously something wrong if you can't turn to anyone you can't even turn to Hashem that's a problem but um the right thing would be to turn to Hashem and uh Hashem is holding us watching us we have to do what we have to do and uh like we heard speak to your local rabbi discuss it with him what's the right thing grow become better and hashem we're waiting for Msiah and it's happening and I'm excited. >> Jake Turks, the floor is yours. >> Um, okay. So, I want to end off with a quote from someone who typically has not earned the privilege of being quoted on such a wonderful program. But it it underscores a lot of the the conversation we've had about the purpose of anti-semitism and the role that they play. So a a very famous notorious anti-semite tweeted as follows. He says, "Jews do everything in their power to help each other get rich. Anti-semites do anything they can to attack and slanders others who are getting paid. I wonder why one side is winning. And from time to time, these anti-semites will pull something very authentic and real. And it um reinforces the the mission that they that they play, the role that they play here, which is to remind us of who we are, to remind us of what makes us special and to also serve as a as a straw man to remind us of what Lashinhara does. But every once in a while they're actually uh truthful and they'll say, "Hey, why is it that Jews are so much more united than the rest of us?" And then we wonder why they're all they always come out on top. Ultimately, this is the u this should be the number one takeaway. Any generation that did not rebuild the BA mikdash, it's as if that their generation destroyed it. Because had the bas mikdash existed in any of those generations, the hatred would have been too uh powerful and the bdash would have had to be destroyed. The first generation that is able to overcome that uh that hangup, the first generation that is able to unconditionally love every Jew is the generation that will merit the bas. And this is a conversation that we should keep on having amongst ourselves and we should see how we can what we can do to uh to help get us closer to that point. Another thing is on a practical level what can we do? There's a wonderful safer called shahab which underscores the mitzvah of relying on hashem of this uh cafer has been translated into English. There are many different uh variations of it by now. And it is it is it is so helpful when we're going through um not just on a macro even in a micro uh sense like in our personal lives. There's so much value that we can get from tapping into shiin and to resolve to try to try to learn it consistently as a way of countering the stress and anxiety that is definitely bound to come up. I feel stress and anxiety too by the way and I'm talking a big game over here like oh look at me I'm not scared. No, it is very scary. I of course it's scary. Um but it's going to be scary anyway. So accept it and there are some proven strategies like studying as a way of helping deal with these anxieties that are bound to come up. >> Beautiful. Thank you Rabbit Turks tonight for your amazing program. Very well received lot of everybody have a wonderful week and we'll see you all next week next Sunday night. Same place. Good night everybody. Take care. Thank you.
