you're asking a question of how come we're not winning the war it's because we don't care about am we don't care about AEM we care about ourselves that's where we're at as a nation can Israel please God destroy Kamas and win why is it taking so long because we haven't done Chua and it's not just because we haven't done Chua for desecrating Shabbat or we haven't done chuva for wasting in seed or we haven't done chuva for eating kosher many people have done Chua for that but the biggest problem that we have today is not the secular people uh secular people most of them are so ignorant that uh they wouldn't know the difference between a uh you know uh the the right and wrong in many cases the biggest problem that we have today is that the so-called religious among us including the people that are watching me right now including the people that are going to watch me tomorrow including the hundreds of thousands of people people that watch my lectures it's because we do not care enough about am is as a whole the secular people as a whole that they that the war is still going on what does that mean if people cared enough about aadh and his children then they would make kiru their number one investment not just something they dabble into once in a blue moon or they make a nice comment about here and there or they share a lecture they would actually invest money into supporting Cube so there's more books so there's more USBS so there's more big events to to to help people uh come and and listen to Torah and so on but unfortunately uh everybody is very comfortable especially balet chuva are very comfortable uh that uh they have done Chua they have saved thems uh and they uh they're okay now they realize yeah being immoral being a liar being a thief being that that was bad I stopped doing it now I'm good now I'm good so now they're living in a FR Community or they're living in a uh you know religious community or Jewish Community or mix of both and the kids go to Yeshiva and uh you know everybody's okay so they're comfortable they're comfortable but they don't realize it's a very good chance they're still going to get home why because they're leaving the rest of am is in the desert in the desert of Tor the rest of am is still doesn't know Tor the rest of doesn't know is where are you where are you where just the that I've made it we should be raising a million dollars a month the that M made we should be raising millions of dollars every month all of the Bala where are the Bala what everybody's poor nobody has any money nobody has a car nobody has a house nobody has anything people are asking me questions about buying houses that's a vacation house they're asking me questions about buying a fancy cars they're asking me questions about fancy watches they're asking questions about a new uh new machines new this new that they have $20,000 to buy a uh another addition to the house another addition to the office but they don't have a few thousand a month to send to kiru why because everybody's selfish now of course everybody doesn't really literally mean everybody because some of you are some of you actually care about is some of you every paycheck you send at least 10% to actually help am is not because you see any type of gold bars being sent to your house from from from our offices not because you're seeing any major uh uh uh uh uh you know diamonds coming to your house but you're seeing blessing in your life and to show that you care about to show gratitude for the fact that you're actually on the right path that you're no longer on the path to G you're actually on the path to ganen you're supporting but the vast majority of people today Jewish people today that are religious that are Fred for birth or and unfortunately also the converts the majority do not care about everybody else that's left behind if they did we'd be raising hundreds of millions of dollars for the sake of Outreach hundreds of millions of dollars but what are people looking for where could I donate so I could get the most most cavod meaning they're willing to donate but only if they get kavod only if everybody hears that he just donated $10,000 to buy an Aliyah he's willing to donate but only if everybody knows that he donated by putting some little sign on the lamp in the synagogue he's want to only if his name is on the seph he's willing to donate only if they put him on some website he's not willing to donate if it's simply going to be for the sake of actually helping and why isn't he worried because he forgot where he came from he forgot where he came from I have some I could I could be I would be happy if I'm buried next to them they maybe make $3 $400 a week if that much in some cases but they still send 50 bucks a week those people for sure they continue in this path they're in ganeden first line as Powerhouse K why because they care it's not about the dollar amount it's about how much effort and then there are some people they have no qualms about spending 10 $20,000 on vacation spend $5,000 on some jewelry or more they have no quals about spending $2 $300 on sneakers on shoes no problem but to go send a few hundred every month a few thousand every month for the sake ofir no chance in the world and if you're hearing this that's because it's also you that's because it's also you now if you're hearing this and you're one of the good people then you obviously know it's not it's not you so I don't have to have to give you a disclosure that it's not you whoever is guilty of this knows it I know some people that are as close as can be meaning I'll get 50 million questions from them I'll get messages from them I'll get phone calls from them I'll get all types of things from them if if in the years that I know them if if in total in total if they donated a total of $100 it would be a surprise no the amount of effort that was put to help these people literally it's easy to give along it's easier to give a than the amount of help these people have gotten so how come you're asking a question of how come we're not winning the war is because we don't care about is we don't care about AEM we care about ourselves that's where we're at as a nation individuals different story we saw sh took took the uh the the the burden of of of somebody else is putting on on upon himself the organiz does this every single day with we're willing to sacrifice our life for but unfortunately it's not enough it's not enough what I do what ra does what does and what other few rabbis and good sik within the community are doing it's not enough is has to care more about Outreach to help do you want to win the war we have to win the war you want to wear the physical War we have to win the spiritual War you want to win the spiritual war we have to win the physical War how the physical war that we have to win everybody's crying about Hamas is Iran is all of the enemies right in order to win that we need to win the spiritual war spiritual war means do chuva how do we win the spiritual war when those that have done chuva those that have converted those that are already fromed for birth they win the war of their lust for money when they start winning the war for lust for money they start donating more to publicize to help we will win all of the wars but until then we're not winning anything because unfortunately it's not enough whatever we're doing is not enough it's not enough and it's important for people to know that as far as a uh uh what we see in the world today unfortunately it's not enough we're not seeing enough Chua because there's not enough care not enough care everybody has to check themselves to see where they stand honesty Hony helped countless people get closer to because For the First Time in their life they hurt honesty Hy that's brutal but is effective is effective
