First General Of The Israeli Army

The number one thing that people know about Israel is that we fight back. Israeli army, even though the government of Israel, the Zionists, the heretics, atheists, the Shaiim, wicked people, the land of Israel was a gifted to us by Hashem. And the fact that we have to survive by fighting is simply a reality. We make sins, therefore Hashem gives power to the Golem to hurt us, and we have to defend ourselves. But who was the first general of the Israeli army before there was an Israeli army? Israel was founded 1948. But there was an Israeli army before 1948. In the year 1879, in the place called Petah Tikva, a bunch of Ashkenazi Jews made Aliyah to the land of Israel and started a little kibbutz, a little place over there where they wanted to settle. The Arabs weren't exactly too excited to see these people. So there's constantly issues. The Ashkenazi Jews that were there, they didn't exactly have uh let's just say they weren't really good with fighting. One day, they said, "We need to have somebody to be our guard. So in case the Arabs come and they attack us, the guard could warn us. They designated a person by name of Yehuda Rav. And Yehuda Rav was there on assignment guarding at night. This is again, this is 70 years before modern state of Israel. Well before the army, well before anything. Yehuda Rav is there. And one day, as he's there at night, he sees a huge man riding a white horse. This Arab man is riding right up to him. He stops next to him. He looks him up and down. Yehuda Rav sees that he has a sword on his left side that's almost as big or as big as him. He looks at the man and the man says to him, "Shalom aleichem." Yehuda Rav says, "Shalom." The big man looks at him and leaves. He says, "I have to You write See, this is all written by Yehuda Rav. I have to remember this guy's face. His face was full of scars. He was a warrior. I have to remember this guy's face and tell the rest of the people about this guy. It's definitely problems coming from this person. The next day Oh, he says not shalom aleichem. He said boker tov. Boker tov, good morning. The next day Judah Rabbis there again. The big man with the white horse shows up again. Looks at him. He said, "God, this is this probably the end." The man says to him boker tov. Judah Rabbi says, "Boker tov." And then all of a sudden he says Ana Israel, Shma Israel, Adonai Eloheinu, Adonai Echad. JUDAH RABBI IS SHOCKED. What is happening here? HOW DO YOU KNOW SHMA ISRAEL? HE SAYS, "HOW DO I KNOW? I'm Jewish. You? At that moment they meet. And the person is named Daoud Abu Yusuf. David ben Yusuf. Who was from the Kaiber Jews from behind the mountains, the dark mountains. And he says that I was traveling and some of the people somebody stole my horse, so I had to chase after these thieves. And I went after them for a couple of cities until I eventually got so close to the land of Israel. I said, "How could I I'm so close. I'm in Damascus. I'm in Syria. Let me just go to Israel. How could I not go to Israel to see the the Holy Land?" And on the way here I rested at one uh Arab Sheikh's house who hosted me. And he told me, "You know that some of your uh brothers and sisters, Jews, have settled here." I said, "What are you talking about? No, there's no Jews here." He goes, "No, they are. Jews came here. They settled in this place, Petah Tikva." I said, "Other Jews?" I said, "I have to see this." So, I came and I saw. And I said "Boker tov" to you. I said, "This is not a Jew." So, I came back to my Arab host. I said, "Why did you lie to me? There's no Jews here. These are European idol worshipers." He says, "I swear to you on Allah, they are Jews." I SAID, "YOU SURE THEY'RE JEWS?" HE GOES, "I SWEAR to you. They're Jews just like you." So, I came back and I wanted to test to see what are you going to say if I say "SHEMA YISRAEL"? AND WHEN YOU KNEW WHAT "SHEMA YISRAEL" IS, I knew that you were a Jew even though you look weird and you don't have uh the Jewish look, but apparently you're Jewish. So, David Abu Yousef comes and they invite him to stay with them and he sees all of these Jews that are there. And he sees that these people are pretty much a walking target cuz they have no clue what they're doing. And he says, "Okay, since you are my Jewish brothers, I'm going to teach you how to deal with Ishmael. I'll train you. I'll teach you. We'll start today." So, everybody was excited. We have a war. You're going to teach us how to deal with Ishmael. So, they make a bonfire. They put all their stuff there. And then David Abu Yusuf says to them, "Okay, now we have to leave." Oh, so bring our stuff. Go, "No, no, no. What do you guys think? You will stay by the fire? No. That's for the That's for Ishmael when he comes he shoots at you. Cuz that's where they're going to think you are. We're going to go in the corner over there where it's dark and cold. They go over there and exactly what he said happened later that night they started bullets started being shot exactly where the fire was, but no one got hurt. And David Abu Yusuf stays with them for a year teaching them how to deal with Ishmael. Helping them, battle them. In multiple cases, he showed them how to fight them. He actually fought the Arabs. But he told them, "You're not allowed to uh don't use uh weapons uh that are guns. He says that's a disrespect to battle. Use swords. And if you're going to use it, only injure Ishmael. Don't kill them. Why? There was a one time that they attacked them and he said, "No, only shoot them in the legs. Shoot them in the sides. Don't kill them. Because if you injure them, they're going to run to their friends and they're all going to be afraid of you. If you kill them, they'll take revenge. They're going to come back. So, it's better that they're scared of you. He taught them all these laws of dealing with Ishmael. And he told them that he is part of the Khyber Jews that live behind the Khoshek. And after a year he left. And from him started all of the different divisions of army of the modern state of Israel. So, anyone that [music] is looking for ways to better his situation, protect himself, protect his family from the horrific situation that surrounds us, terrorism and everything [music] else, they must understand that the only way is to increase Torah. More Torah, more life.
