we're back here on our Tuesday night war of series which we have the Merit to returned to it it's been quite some time since uh We've read the Holy words ofu tonight's sh is uh for the and also a very big ma to my very dear parents for their 50th year anniversary tonight half a century together and still going and a lot more a lot more good health and a lot of good blessings to them um and also for the for our dear raana s Lana Ben Lana ysf Ben Lana and all of am Isel and all the righteous noahides that continue to learn with us and support the organization that we could continue do all the amazing things that we're doing with theim the in is which uh by now we have two full-time cols uh and one night K uh three different locations uh and it's uh it's going strong and we'll continue we continue we have a uh a fourth one that we also uh have been uh working with over the last uh uh six months or so or four five months or so so lots of T Lots ofu there's a lot of uh products that uh we uh are on the way books that are on the way and other things that we're can continue doing all the distribution everywhere so anyone that wants to donate can donate at be.org uh and if you want to get some of the uh sherar boxes or books to distribute in your community for free or the USBs you can go to uh kir store.org K store.org it's uh uh the name is going to be on the bottom of the screen at some point when we uh publish this on uh YouTube and as far as donations a couple of you have asked me uh this question uh in regards to donations with Bitcoin and uh you know checks and everything else but uh some people have asked me if they could donate stuff uh so we actually do have a few people uh that over the years uh several people over the years that have donated uh different uh precious metals and uh you know uh jewelry and watches and stuff like that that uh since we have family in the uh in the business uh it's very easy for us to uh not have to break our heads to try to find somebody to not rip us off so if you want to donate that that's also something that we could uh uh accept as well if you want to send those as well either way whatever you can do to help the organization certainly we'd appreciate it we have uh great volunteers and workers and uh team members that are all doing their best to uh get more and more Torah around the world now with the uh series at hand really it uh it's it's one of the things that has amazed me uh over the years of uh studying the holy words of is literally how um and I'd like to say seemingly prophetic his word's word I mean it's seemingly I'm only saying simply because our Torah tells us that prophecy uh ended after uh right before the end of the uh the destruction of the second mikash but of course we know that thees is still in the world to this day uh but sometimes there are certain words that Sim say uh or write that seem a whole lot more than uh you knowes notes is not enough but it's literally uh you uh read their words and you're starting to look for them to see where they are if they're if they're watching the news if they're in the world today even though uh in many cases is a century or more has passed and the same goes with's words whether it's the first series that we did several years ago uh which was uh called the era of mashiah about 30 or so lectures that talk about uh what's the world going to look like before mashiah comes or it's the uh next stage uh the war of Amal series that we've been doing over the past year where each time we read another segment and study with you guys uh another segment of this uh relatively unknown uh writings ofan Vasan because he uh connected it to his uh commentary on uh still you see that uh the words of the sadik are very much uh you know alive and well today and more uh clear today than ever before uh and tonight is going to be no exception uh really the topic at hand is something that's on many people's mind which is in regards to the leadership that's in the world today now I know that we've gone through this uh Stupid phase uh where during the corona times uh where everyone was constantly talking about the New World Order and all of these uh different leaders that are behind the scenes uh trying to take over the world uh you know this is first of all it's nothing new there's always been somebody trying to take over the world uh but the amount of attention that I got in the uh in the Torah world is you know beyond ridiculous anyone that wanted to make themselves a name and to get a bunch of different people that uh don't understand really what the tah is for uh and they wanted to get them to uh get some views you know did a lecture or video about the New World Order uh but the truth be told is that the uh media has you know made things very different than they were in the past you know in the old days you would get news once in a while about what's happening in the uh you know city across the uh the river uh once in a while you get some news about what's happening in a different country uh it wasn't obviously anything like today where everything is realtime news as soon as somebody sneezes the whole world knows about it and there's 15 different pictures about it some of them are made by artificial intelligence and some of them are uh you know made uh by uh you know by uh Photoshop and you're not even sure which one is really which one is not uh but the reality isai that uh the news in the last year or so and especially in the last several months since uh Donald Trump took uh the uh you know president's seat again uh in his second term uh the news has obviously been much more uh rampant than ever before uh not just uh in regards to America but Israel Ukraine all the different things that are happening around the world and uh in such a way where it seems like there's a constant barrage of nerve-wrecking news coming every day you know in the past there usually would be you know one type of uh nerve you know you know a headache coming from the media every week uh other times would be a little bit more often but today it seems like every single day there is literally breaking news uh that uh have an actual impact on the world have an actual impact on uh you know your day-to-day life uh or at the very least that's what the media makes it seem like uh you know and it's different political issues different uh global issues whether it's the war or it's the tariffs there's a lot of stuff going on over there and uh what's happened is that while this really shouldn't matter to a Torah Jew that's supposed to be focused on tah it ends up mattering to them because you see that it's impacting your day-to-day life it's impacting when you go to the grocery store and now in America you have to pay you know $10 for a dozen eggs uh you know something that uh is unheard of uh just uh you know a few years ago uh you have to uh you know pretty much guess whether you're going to be able to afford a house and uh you know that you want to you know that you need for your family you know because your uh lease is coming up or the house that you're living in is just simply too small uh because the prices have skyrocketed uh you're having uh issues you know if you have investments in the stock market you're not really sure whether the bubble has officially burst or it's just another uh bump in the road where uh it's uh taking one step back before it takes another few steps forward even though it's already been on a bull run for uh double the amount of what's normally uh these types of things take place usually there's a market uh uh correction every seven years the market has been going uh pretty much straight up uh for something around 16 years uh so it's a uh you know what's happening right now where there's a correction and the market has gone down almost you know uh especially certain uh companies and uh have gone down significantly in the last few weeks people are you know on one end they're seeing that there is uh major crisis in certain companies where they're going down uh but as far as the economy is concerned uh people are mixed about it because you're still seeing you know big deals happen like for example today uh Google uh announced that they're buying a uh a technology company named whiz that uh was founded by a group of Israelis uh that are located in uh in America uh and uh for $32 billion these types of transactions usually don't happen in a uh in a market that has blown up usually these types of things happen you know during a bull market during Good Times uh and you're seeing a bunch of different things happen so you know it's you can't look for the news to see the truth uh so what ends up happening is that a lot of people are looking for their friends they're looking for their uh peers they're looking for different opinions and uh what I've noticed is that everyone has an opinion about every leader that's out there that's in the headlines uh you know whether it be a leader domestically or internationally uh and uh what ends up happening also is that many of the Torah groups that you have on WhatsApp and on uh you know Facebook and different places have actually turned into um almost like political news groups uh somebody added me to some group which B I've exited out of it after a few days because I just simply couldn't take the nonsense uh cuz I was told it was a news was it a Torah group it has you know I don't know thousands of uh of people in it which is always great if you could post in a place like that to share to it's great but uh you going into this group and you see that literally every few minutes they post another news article about politics I'm not really sure why this is called the Torah group uh why it's even called the Jewish group but every two seconds you have another news article about whether it's Trump or it's Elon Musk or it's I don't know tariffs or it's something it's like literally there's more news in the in these so-called Torah groups and there's there is news in the in the media every article I don't even know how the the the administrators even have time to read all this stuff but every two seconds there's more news there's more news and why is there more news because that's really what you know a lot of the people are looking for people want more news they want to know what's going on why because there's just so much you know going on out there there's every two seconds there's a new rule there's a new law there's a new conviction there's a new exposure there's a new something and uh people are constantly on their feet and uh looking for when's the next shoe G to drop on something and the thing is though is that the Torah understands obviously the creation understands the mindset of people and the Torah also has an opinion only difference is this is the opinion of God which means that it's the only one that's always right and to's opinion about what our ideology is supposed to be what our mindset is supposed to be what our perspective is supposed to be uh not just about the news but about leaders is of Paramount importance especially today and R's seemingly prophetic words are going to show us again the right perspective and answer the questions about who is the Right leader who does the Torah deem to be the right fit to be a leader whether it be the leader of you know Israel or or or or the world or whatever it is the danger of bad leaders we're not just talking about you know bad uh uh politicians but it could also be even bad uh Dian bad rabbis and what really our ideology is supposed to be when it comes to how we talk about them because unlike the past where people were very afraid of sharing their opinions about leaders because that could easily mean a death penalty in the uh generation of so-called free speech people share the most uh horrific opinions publicly about their own leaders even in front of their faces with what seems to be no consequence so much so that in the uh in my opinion the most hideous structure of government on planet Earth which is in Israel uh you see that uh any time that they publicize some type of congressional meeting or one of these clown shows where they have a bunch of people uh that are supposed to sit down and then have one guy discuss his point or one woman discuss her point you literally have a shouting match uh in in and cursing and and and different uh uh threats and walking out and just a constant uh disgrace to to mankind needless to say to the state of Israel uh and this public uh you know expression of of disregard for for any anything decent has become standard it's it's accepted it's standard it's uh this is the way it is there is no such thing as it not being this it's not a one-time thing it's a standard thing uh you know it's a uh something that uh is becoming standard in many other places people think that they're uh not only do they have the uh the right to be heard but in fact they feel like people have an obligation to hear them no matter what they say uh they're uh somehow people value their opinions a whole lot more than what uh what they're really worth and the Torah has a lot to say about this a lot to say about how we're supposed to really communicate you know especially when it comes to you know living in the exile which we're all living in the Exile even if you're living in Israel it's still technically considered the Exile right now because of the leadership that's there and whether you're interested in the Torah or you're interested in the political world the sh is certainly going to inform you about some things that you need to know and perhaps are going to even uh impact your worldview perspective soas in section number 18 after after telling us and warning us uh of how to deal with this war of Amal that we are facing that the only tool to fight Amal is a spiritual tool not a physical tool all the weapons in the world all the missiles in the world the airplanes in the world and the money in the world is not going to help you in this war of Amal the only thing that's going to help you is more tah but of course to have more tor you need more people to understand and believe that the tah is the priority and instead of investing more money and getting themselves more bags and watches and cars and and uh and and different types of investments into this world people need to obviously invest more into the tah but nonetheless the uh warning is clear thatan is telling us that this war is something that we have to deal with there is no way around it before mashia comes the uh world is going to go to the worst spiritual level in the history of mankind and while am is was in the 49th level of impurity when we were in Egypt surrounded by IM morality and idolatry only a sin away from being destroyed with the rest of the world if we reach the 50th level tells us that the world will reach the 50th level am will reach the 50th level meaning the worst possible level we can get to a level that technically is supposed to uh lead to complete destruction but the only reason why uh the destruction will not happen or at least not complete destruction is because we have a way out of it which is the tah and the tah is going to be able to save some people and we've discussed many times the war of goou Magog we had a whole lecture about it uh during uh oaba for anyone that wants to uh know some of the details of what the sages tell us about what's going happen in this war of go Magog but this is not the part we're going to talk about tonight tonight wants to inform us about who is fit to lead Israel or the world and he says as follows he says this is a law of the Tor and it's a well-known law anyone that does not have fear of heaven we are forbidden from putting him in a position of power over am Israel in any way shape or form not a king not a poit politician not a teacher not a Dian not a rabbi nothing why he's missing the key ingredient in order to qualify to be a teacher now he says this is a well-known law meaning it's not an opinion it's not an ideology but rather it's a law and he brings the ramban in chapter one Al number seven and the rambam says as follows the source of it from where the rambam got it is what it says in parim uh where uh talks about how a king has to have two one of them he has to have on him at all times to constantly remind him of fear of heaven but furthermore he says when a king is appointed he's Anointed with oil reserved for this purpose as it says in the book of Samuel chap uh Samuel 1 10:1 and shuel took the cruise of oil and poured it over his head and then he kissed him once a king is Anointed he and his descendants are granted the monarchy until eternity for the monarchy is passed down by inheritance as the Torah itself says in the book of Deuteronomy chapter 17: 20 thus he meaning the king and his descendants will prolong their reign in the midst of isi and if the king leaves only a son young son the monarchy should be held for him until matures as y did for Yash the order of inheritance of the monarchy is the same as that governing the inheritance of property an older son is given precedence over the younger one not only the monarchy but all other positions of authority and appointments in Israel are transferred to one's children and grandchilden as inheritance forever so this first part is in essence telling us how not just the monarchy but any position of power is handled according to Hashem furthermore says the rambam the above above applies if the knowledge and the fear of God of the son is equivalent to that of his ancestors here for the first time he's mentioning the qualifications that are required by this Authority and again this applies to whether it be a king a president a Dian a rabbi or any person in a position of power position of authority if his fear of God is equivalent to theirs but not his knowledge he should be granted his father's position and given instruction meaning if he's knowledgeable but nowhere near as as wise as his father but he still has the fear of God like his father then he still qualifies to be a king meaning that you don't have to be a genius to be an authority but you do have to have fear of God you have to have however says the ram under no circumstances should a person who lacks the fear of God be appointed to any position in Israel even though he possesses much knowledge meaning even if the person is an absolute genius revolutionary IQ off the charts the world has never seen such a smart person he's smart and he's rich and he uh he knows uh everything about everything but he's missing fear of God he's missing the the Torah decrees he is forbidden and we are forbidden from allowing him to have any authority over AML this obviously only pertains to Jewish leaders it is not pertaining to non-jews that are beyond our control but the point being here is that in the world today where the fear of God has become almost like a insult or or or or a derogatory uh uh uh uh think to have or to even speak about we actually see that the reason why people are told that fear of God is something that you don't need to concern yourself with you should be focused on love of God and all types of other false teachings that people say whether they call themselves rabbis or not is because they themselves those people themselves that are saying this don't have fear of God and that's why they speak against it you know I uh was sent a video by uh somebody uh a student of mine just the other day of some uh relatively well-known RAB who uh tries to provoke people's uh uh you know a uh I guess their attention or whatever by saying he doesn't believe in God he believes in Hashem and those are two different things whatever you know uh in my opinion a very foolish thing to to say and to to to to to even try to explain but nonetheless that wasn't really the thing that bothered me the most when I watched uh some of to to see what's what's behind this uh this uh this so-called provocative statement what bothered me the most is that at some point this uh Rabbi said listen this you know when the uh somebody was interviewing him saying listen you know the it's uh the teachings of punishment Gom kafak all these horrible things are very detailed in the Torah it's not like some Parable it's not a uh uh foreign belief this is the foundation of the Tor so what do you say about that cuz you're saying that uh you know not to uh teach fear he said no that was for a different generation this generation is not going to uh accept uh teachings about fear now aside from the fact that what he said is heretical because the one of the 13 principles of Fate is that that this is the Tora and it'll never be changed the toah that we got at Mount is the same toah that we have today and'll never change not a single word not a sentence not a paragraph not nothing everything is exactly the same and uh the fact that uh there are certain people that maybe are more inclined uh to uh to listen to some parts of the tah than they are the others does not change uh the tah itself uh and for him to say that people shouldn't teach that way and shouldn't talk that way uh is not only wrong but it's actually part of the problem that we have today where uh people think that learning about what the Torah says in practically every par in the t uh about punishment and how hasem destroyed the world at time of Noah punished ad right off the bat uh when he uh violated his decree not to eat from the Tree of knowledge uh you know a uh constantly reminds us to listen to him or else there's going to be consequences or even if it's simply just looking at the world today and whether you're looking at the uh The World At Large and you're seeing what happened uh to us on October 7th what's happening to us every single day in Israel and around the world with anti-Semitism at alltime highs uh or it's happening uh in people's lives people getting sick people losing uh their money people getting divorces all types of horrible things happening everywhere you see that there is punishment there is suffering there is difficulties and to just simply ignore that and say no no you shouldn't talk about that it's literally ignoring the elephant in the room and pretending that there's only cats it's bizarre but the reason why people are doing this is because since they themselves do not have fear of God the evil inclination is in full control of them and therefore builds them a stage with a understanding and a modotto that they have to speak against the fear of God to get more people to join them when in fact the rambam the foundation of Al the foundation of Judaism is telling us whether you are a king or you are a simple Rabbi to a bunch of four-year-olds if you do not have fear of God you are not allowed to be in that position every minute that you are in that position you're violating the Torah every minute that you are in that position those who put you in that position are violating the Torah and only bad can come out of it so the rambam is in essence not giving us an ideological lesson here but rather telling us the law of the Torah that under no circumstance should a person who lacks in the fear of God be appointed to any position in Israel even though he possesses much knowledge meaning even if he has written 50 books even if he's a bestseller on a New York Times and the Gom times even if he has something to say about everything even if he has great connections even if people like him even if people vote for him even even even even if he lacks fear of God it's forbidden for am is to allow him to lead us in any position of authority now if you fast forward in from chapter one that we're in now to chapter 11 you'll actually notice what the ultimate leader the Messiah will have to do in order to even be qualified to be a messiah meaning that before he's decreed that he is mssiah he has to be in what's called Mas meaning that he has to be qualified to be mashia he can't just uh say oh listen because we like him therefore he's going to be mashiah or because he's famous therefore he is going to be a mashiah doesn't work that way and in chapter 11 Al number four it tells us aside from being from the House of David and one who contemp diligently contemplates the Torah and observes the mitvah meaning he has to be religious extremely religious tell me someone that's you know very very uh committed to learning he has to observe the he can't be reformed can't be conservative can't be uh modern can't be uh anything what the Torah says he has to follow T he has to be the M of the generation do necessarily doesn't say he has to be famous doesn't say he has to have a YouTube channel doesn't say he has to uh be uh uh you know 20 feet tall no no says that he has to be from House of David contemplate the tah and observe the MIT as prescribed by the written law in the oral law just like David his ancestor did and this Messiah says the rambam has to do kiru he compels all of Israel to walk in the way of T and to rectify the breaches and its observance and fights the wars of God then we may consider with assurance that he's mashiah meaning that in order for one to even qualify as someone that could be mashiach it's not enough that he studies a lot of Torah even he knows the old Torah or no no no it's not enough that he's from the House of David it's not enough that he's no he has to help people do chuva he has to fight the wars of God the wars of God is the tah itself is called the book of Wars what is the wars of God the wars of God are the spiritual Wars and in order for one to fight the spiritual Wars that means that he must have he must have fear of God why because if you are afraid of what people are going to say if you're afraid of whether you're going to be popular or unpopular if you're afraid that they may invite you or not or disinvite you then you don't have fear of God you have fear of people your fear of public opinion your fear of popularity your fear of bank accounts your fear of uh you know donations but if a person fears God that means that when he sees that there are breaches just like the rambam says that is violating the Tora that is doing something wrong whether it's corrupt businesses or corrupt ideology or whatever it is he's going to fight to get people to do chuva and spread the truth no matter what price it comes at so first we know that as ran quotes the rambam that in order for one to be a leader to be in a position of authority key according to the T they must have fear of God they must have fear of God and for those that are constantly thinking about Mia if the rabbi or leader or whatever you are you know are assuming someone is fit to be mashia does not have you could already know with absolute certainty that they're not mashia and they're not fit to be mashah they're not even fit to be a leader of of of of a 10 school children because fear of God is the absolute requirement of any position of authority now Ras continues and says what happens they if said the loss that we get when we do not pick leaders in accordance with the Torah that have fear of God is something we see immediately why can because when we put people that do not have fear of God in a position of authority whether it be a president or it be a school teacher and that person does not have fear of God then by putting him in a position of authority we are authorizing and enabling the Z the fake news the the lies in so many words we're giving Kash to a pig and then he says that by giving them a position of power position of authority the Jews are in essence increasing that person that lacks fear of God they're increasing that person's responsibility over them and in so many words by increasing their responsibility over over them over the over us over the Jewish people we're saying that they are the right person to be the shal the messenger the representative of the Jewish community and this sin of enabling people that lack fear of Heaven to be leaders is a sin that we actually see the outcome of it in real time because these Wicked people since they're not afraid of God they're not afraid of anyone so even though the Jewish Community put them in power to be the rabbi the Dion the politician the president the whatever it is because they thought that he's okay may not be religious or he may not have a uh any concern whatsoever about the 13 principles of Faith or even one of them still he's a good leader he's a good speaker he's uh Rich he's connected whatever other excuse people use and they think that good will come out of this say the Torah promises us that only bad will come out of this why because these people will end up using the power that we give them to insult us to degrade us all the way to the dust and even to inform on us behind our backs and even in open uh in the open now to put things in perspective sometimes it's good to give examples real life examples some years ago there was a Rasha named Michael aminov who I found out was not only a wicked you know false teacher claims to be a rabbi has a Sho in Arizona but he took it up a notch where he even partnered up with Christian missionaries that were pretending to be Jews and not only knew about it but actually helped them to the extent where he made a bed where they were the DI they were doing Brit they were you know doing the weddings for people they were sheing the meat literally anyone that ate the meat a he himself would Slaughter animals and give people parts of the meat the that you're not allowed to eat and we Expos this rash and and made enough commotion that some people understood that to stay away from him but he sends me messages till this day every single day he sends me messages he didn't give up because he still has some supporters unfortunately some people that are ignorant or careless or both that uh still support him not as much as the past but nonetheless uh to a certain extent he's still there and uh a lot of people don't realize that the things we highlighted were just bits and pieces of the damage that he was causing the the immense amount of damage that he has caused and continues to cause is much much greater than that it's not there's not enough time in a lecture to even explain what Wicked teachers what false teachers what Heretics do literally to to to explain the damage that a person can cause by being a heretic it's the world would end and you wouldn't have enough time to explain the damage because it's a domino effect but as you would have it more people come to me and they ask me different questions and you know I try to guide them to the best of my ability and uh but uh just in the last uh whatever recent times somebody came to me different issues and so on and then you find out that this person has a lot of major issues health problems like literally wealth of problems so much so that that even though they consider themselves religious there are members of the family that have accustomed themselves to eating non kosher food like why would you and still consider themselves religious Now by non koser food I don't mean like they go and eat pig or they eat McDonald's but non kosher food meaning that they eat at secular people's houses without any concern whatsoever or uh they uh they do different things that in so many words are either outright violations of the Torah or at the very least not uh appropriate behavior but it's you know it's an escalating thing so where do this all start and you find the more questions you ask the more you talk to me we find out what ends up happening you find out these people are victims of aminov they used to eat his T meat they used to be part of his K they used to be part part of all the lies and they told me more and more things the guy literally uh would force people to celebrate Brit on non-jewish kids say kadish on intim like people that were intermarried and complete Heretics all types of things that are literally against al against tradition against custom against everything he would feed them non Kosher meat and just say no no it's it's good it's okay I Sanctified it the craziest things in the world and now few years have passed and you see these people are suffering as a result of it some parts of the family are off the D some parts of the family are very very sick and literally on their deathbed some parts of the family are uh you know all these issues and they're like where did this what happened why we you know we're nice people we keep Shabbat what you don't understand is that when a person becomes part of a heretic's list of victims unless you absolutely uproot yourself from there the damage simply continues it's no different than cancer unless you completely uproot it it continues to grow and kill the person there was a uh event I was told about that there's going to be a bunch of uh rabbis diim that are going to discuss uh laws of business and I was invited to go and uh looked at it and I see wait a minute who who's who are they going to have speaking and I see that they're going to have certain people that not only should not be speaking but rather should be spoken about because they're Heretics because they're aim because they're corrupt because they partner up with missionaries with with with with the enemies but people don't care so you have a rabinal event where some of the keynote speakers are people that are literally destroying the spiritual status of Am now sometimes you say okay maybe this is uh one event another event but what I'm trying to tell you is that just like shim said just like the said many many said that before mashia comes it's going to be hard to find people that have real fear of God real real righteous people why because not because they're they're just going to be so few but rather because the wicked people are not going to be people walking around with like gangsters with knives and guns and it's going to be clear that they're Wicked some of the wicked people are going to pretend to be your friend are going to be pretend to be your helper are going to pretend to be somebody that supports you I have a uh student that uh literally told me this and I can't couldn't believe it Rabbi of his K pretends that he likes them he supports them he's this he's that he's his friend but then the moment that this poor guy's wife decides to go crazy and she decides that she doesn't want to uh be married mared anymore she picks up she takes her kid they had a kid together and she leaves she leaves the house she just leaves she goes back to the Gom she came from wants to hang out with our friends till 2:00 in the morning 3:00 in the morning wants to do whatever she wants and now she even wants him to give her a get because her Minds is a Go's mindset that if I don't want to be married I could just leave I could just do whatever I want that's not how works when a person when a Jew marries a woman it's not like divorce in a secular world where if you don't like each other you just split doesn't work that way if he doesn't want to be with her anymore under certain circumstances sure he could let her go but if she just decid I don't want to be married to this guy anymore he doesn't have to let it go doesn't have to let it go doesn't work that way but in this politically correct world where false leaders are constantly trying to kiss up to the public and pretend to be heroes when this calls the uh local rabbis instead of them investigating the issue instead of them investigating the AL which really doesn't require much investigation literally in two seconds you see that she's uh you don't he doesn't have to give her a get ever if he doesn't want to what do they do they choose yeah yeah you're right yeah you don't want to be with him anymore you stole his kid he's never going to see the kid again sure yeah you should get the get why not you should get the get you should get the money you should get the get you have rights like like literally like worse than that and what do they do they start pressuring this poor guy listen you got to give her a get why why do I have to give her a get she stole my kid she stole this she she ruined my life what do you why do I have to give her a get no no no she doesn't want to be with you you just got to give it to her listen it's good for you just give it to her and they start literally abusing this poor guy day and night calling showing up the same people that pretended to be his friends to pretended to be his Rabbi pretended to be suppor pretended pretended pretended one after another after another no listen you have to or else you have to go to bed what sure let's go to the bedin the bin will tell you not no no the bedin already says that you have to give why why under what law what Allah says I have to give her again if she did all of that she's she's a wicked woman she's a she stole the kid she ran away I don't have to give her again if I don't want to the fact that she decided to leave that's her problem no no no you have to give it to her listen she why what what says I have to they can't bring an but what can they do they could abuse they can insult they could pressure they send me messages nonstop oh you have to you have to influence him I'm influence him what to hurt himself after she destroyed his life I'm an to influence what what where what what are you talking about and if you think oh maybe it's just one Rabbi that's you know doesn't know or is clueless or is a bad guy no no no literally every other day there was another new Rabbi and it continues to this day this is not the only story unfortunately every day there's another guy another guy another guy that joins her Camp joins the the the why cuz she's a woman so it's the me too movement what's the me too she's always right but but she but she's wrong according to no no no she's right though and today's world she's right what today's world the Torah cannot change who made you a rabbi who made you a d who made you anything you don't know anything you're going against the Tor you're a this is happening any time in the world today a woman wants to leave a husband in the Jewish World it doesn't work with the secular world there are certain rules when yes when no but if you just decide you know what listen I want a new uh I want a younger richer man I'm leaving give me a divorce give me a get you don't have to give her a get yeah but what about if she does it anyway and then then there be that's our problem it's not your problem there are certain conditions you don't have to give her a get and in some cases don't you shouldn't give her a get as a punishment but in today's world what how can you speak like that you should give her a get what is she going to be auna for the rest of our life she chose this life she's the one that stole the kid she's the one that disappeared she's the one that doesn't want to work things out he never kicked her out he never did anything bad to her we're not uh the the the secular world or the Gentile world where it's a uh people treat marriage like boyfriend girlfriend but unfortunately when you have rabbis even some of them calling themselves diim that automatically choose the wom because they want to be heroes they want to see look we are for the women we're protecting the women we don't want they literally turn into every guy into a into a uh like an evil monster but the AL doesn't say that certainly there cases where he guy has to give his wife a get and for that the rambam himself says that even if you have to hit him until he says yes you do it because he really wants to give her get because that's the right thing to do but there are certain cases that itself says you don't have to give her a get and in fact you shouldn't give her a get why she's wicked let her suffer from her own behavior but when you have false leaders Liars with or without a beard and a hat calling themselves or Rabbi all types of things the damage that it causes literally is innumerable you cannot quantify it because the the damage grows every day every day I hear more and more stories more and more stories from different people from London from Florida from New York from uh uh Australia from Israel from the Arizona from literally all four corners of the world different people coming for different help different guidance and we try to do whatever we can over the last decade to help as many people as possible but unfortunately sometimes the root of the problem is not even the person it's not even what they do but rather how they were misled and to get a person out of that hole is much more difficult much more difficult it was a rash mayor ofia in Israel tiberious did everything he possibly could to destroy the Torah made public transportation opened it up on Shabbat made parties on Shabbat literally promoted on a regular basis everything he could do to get people to abandon the tah he did after years of fighting against the tah there was finally an opportunity to remove him from Power said we have to you know replace him with somebody else but since the secularism and heresy in the air has affected people to put a religious guy as a mayor is going to be a little difficult so they supported a uh secular Israeli to be the mayor because he promised that he's going to undo all of these horrible things that the previous mayor did he's going to shut down the parties on Shabbat the public transportation even though he himself is not religious he's going to uh you know respect respect the Torah after all this is Israel it's not America it's not a uh you know Bangladesh it's Israel no problem uh to support the Torah so ra cuk supported him literally got the religious community there to to support him to put him in power but unfortunately just like says that these people that we put in power when they're they don't have they're not allowed to be in power and in fact when it's even worse when they are betrayers of Hashem when they're not loyal to hem they don't even keep Shabbat themselves they don't keep the to themselves then certainly they're not going to be loyal to you and to everyone's dismay especially cook this mayor of teria that after he got into Power he acted no different than the previous rash continued the parties continues everything this made rauk so sick literally went to the hospital broke his heart but this is not new this is not new this is the mentality of the Heretics throughout all of history in Israel it's pretty much a uh it's it's it's the model they're uh their Idol Ben before you would put into the power he obviously had to get supporters other politicians to support him so what did he say so listen listen you support me in my party then get I get you vote I'll give you this job I'll give you that job I'll give you this job you know that's that's how politicians work that's how they get into a higher level of Power by getting others to support them how do they get others to support them by promising them that once you put me in this position of power this position of authority then I'll give you a better job I'll I'll give you more funding I'll give you this rooll I'll give you this I'll give you that so it's a you know you scratch my back I scratch yours but benan after he got into Power he didn't do anything to what he said so the people came to them hey you said that uh you're going to support the tah you're going to support Judaism you're going you're going to do all that he says yes I made those promises but I didn't promise that I was going to fulfill them what yeah I promised you that I was going to do all those things but I didn't promise that I was actually going to do it literally just justifying the LIE justifying the LIE giving a kroot stamp for lying so when somebody promises something but then after they get elected after they get the position that they want they uh and they don't deliver it all they're doing is uh just following benon all they're doing is following benon told them benon says yeah I promised you all those things but I didn't promise that I was going to do them he put a kosher stamp on the lies now today unfortunately many people act like this many people act like this and that's why fear of God is of Paramount importance because if the person is afraid to fight for the honor of God to fight for the truth of a T and he's afraid of people's opinions he's afraid of popularity then not only is he not fit to be mashiah but he's not even fit to be a leader of a small group of people in the Jewish World this is the reason whyem said to in the Tora in in the 17th uh chapter that even a king who was Jewish King King supposed to be the biggest sad biggest but even if he's great and Hashem chose him to be king because he's so great he has to be reminded of his obligation to hasem and his fear of hem every single second he has to have a SE with him at all times because if he does not it's downhill from there as a side note when you look at the non-jewish Kings leaders whatever it is it's a very different world first of all the Jews don't really have the even if they think they do the power to put anybody in you know to put a president not president but you'll see that there is a significant difference on one end you have BB Netanyahu who is a secular Jew supports Christian missionaries has some of them working for him speaks out of both sides of his mouth on one end he promises on the other on the other end he says I don't have to fulfill my promises whatever is convenient for him only recently did he even start mentioning any any type of honor to hasem whatsoever saying but generally speaking it's always honor to himself on the other hand Donald Trump constantly mentions that his belief in God even though he obviously believes in a different religion Al together and that's a issue of its own but nonetheless you see that this person that his enemies did everything they possibly could to destroy him during his presidency after his presidency they tried to arrest him they tried to kill him but Hashem protected him I mean you could see it's it's clear as day two assassination attempts at least ones that he knows about try to put him in jail one after another a whole government against him one time came to a community of Syrian Jew you see that people have literally developed fears for everything but to a that has no and he know how much I dislike Tick Tock it's just Grows by the day so Donald Trump he uh constantly mentions is belief in God is uh loyalty to God is a uh and you see that Hashem actually is is is has protected him and now you see the things that he's doing he's shaking up the system he's fighting against the lies in his in in the system that of America all of this you know a uh fraudulent uh government uh transactions the the stealing of money the all the different horrible things he's uh trying to fix the uh the debt ceiling you know he's just trying to do a lot of different things and you have to really see wow this guy's actually trying to make a difference he's trying to finally you know do something different than all his predecessors well all of his predecessors really were trying to make their name in whatever way they could Without Really upsetting anybody without hurting the corrupt system continue to enable different you know a uh parties to benefit from the corruption from the stealing from the government stealing from the people but they would try to make their name by saying or doing something whether it be a insurance for everyone or uh dealing with some type of global issue or pretending to create peace somewhere but in reality for decades upon decades it's a um the pre one president after another didn't really do much to change the system to change the corrupt status quo because shaking up the system means you have to go to war with a lot of different people but this guy is coming in he's bringing in business people smart people successful people whether it be the Elon Musk or some of the other uh a uh people that are on the staff of uh of Donald Trump and literally he doing everything he possibly can to shake up the system and actually change it and I would say that despite the fact that it's certainly admirable to to to see somebody that's trying to change or at the very least lower the level of corruption that's in uh behind the scenes despite the risk the everything else one thing that uh you could you could really uh you know appreciate here is the fact that as arrogant as he is which is unquestionable he still reminds himself and the audience that God is above him something that you would expect really from a Jewish leader now does that mean that everyone has to walk around with a Donald Trump hat and kiss up to him and say uh uh blessings for him pray for him every day no not necessarily certainly wouldn't support the other side but the point being is is that whether a person is a Jewish leader or non-jew they could be good they could be bad the attitude of the Tora has to still stand regardless and what is that attitude what is that perspective that the to is telling us first is in essence telling us if it's going to be a Jewish leader someone that is going to be put in a position of power over Jews as we've said already he must must have fear of God he must have fear of God regardless of what position of authority he has because if he fears God then you have good things to expect from him why because even if somebody succeeds that doesn't mean that they're not going to change you know so for example obviously uh you know Donald Trump is trying to do a lot of different things and if he succeeds in them he's going to make his uh his name part of US History unlike the vast majority of US presidents and politicians that the vast majority of of society does not even realize that they exist uh if he succeeds in making this uh you know this new economic policies of having the tariffs or uh or or or eliminating the corruption and the stealing from the government for all this fake money that's being thrown around to different uh related parties if he succeeds in in in in these uh major Endeavors that he has he's going to put his name in history and certainly during his lifetime he's going to increase his arrogance even more and he's going to think he is the greatest president ever which may very well happen at least in recent history if he succeeds now in the Jewish world that cannot happen why not because if you pick a leader in accordance to the Torah which means that regardless of what level of knowledge they have obviously they have to be Torah observant but regardless of what level of Torah knowledge they have the main requirement for a leader is to have fear of God which means that if he has fear of God and you put him in power and he institutes new things new ways new whatever he strategies and those things succeed those strategies those plans succeed in a magnificent way people people make a lot of money as a result people have uh a lot more ways to uh to learn t a lot more accessibility for to they have more freedom they have more uh uh you know Health whatever he's doing whatever is you know this this guy's hypothetical situation whatever he does succeeds which means that he has brought an enormous blessing to the people naturally just like the example we gave with Donald Trump this success enables a person to become even more arrogant than what they were why because in in their mind it justifies oh I already thought I was really good now I proved that I was really good so yeah perhaps you know people uh need to praise me even more people need to worship me even more people need to thank me even more but in the in in the Torah world this cannot happen why because if this leader was chosen because he has because he has fear of God that fear of God nullifies his desires and nullifies his feelings of arrogance because just like the fear of God will scare a person from committing any type of immorality any type of adulter any type of corruption because he's afraid of being punished he's afraid of being distant from God so he's not going to do that the same concept is applicable when it comes to arrogance if he has real fear of God he's not going to fall for the Trap of arrogance because he knows that God gave him everything he has whether it be success or what seems to be like failure whether it be good health or bad Health whatever it is so the Torah is aness is not just giving us a solution for a uh election but rather it's giving us a solution for Success throughout the entire lifetime of this leader if he has fear of God in the beginning you could elect him if he continues to have fear of God then regardless of what level of success or failure he has he's always going to be loyal to Hashem and by being loyal to Hashem by default he's also going to be loyal to the people to Isel but if he's not loyal to Hashem then certainly you could expect arrogance to be standard corruption to be standard immorality to become standard betrayal of people to become standard all of the horrible things why because there's nothing stopping him the more Authority you give him the more you enable him to express his arrogance and his corruption and in more different ways that's why says the first and foremost you have to understand that there's a law in the in order for one to be in a position of authority they have to have and when we elect someone put somebody in power without this we are enabling the fakery the corruption we are giving life to corruption now if someone one were to think well but listen this guy is bad and that guy is bad but uh this is the lesser of two evils there's a logic like that where there's it's it's unfortunately a false logic many times where there's a lesser of two evils this guy is bad and that guy is bad he is a atheist and he is secular he's not atheist but he's secular so uh we're not going to go with the atheist the guy that says he's a girl we go with the secular guy that's a problem why because you're going to put him in power you're going to tell the Jewish people that even though he's secular even though he doesn't follow to even though he doesn't keep Shabbat he still can represent the Jewish people because you think that since he's the lesser of two evils he's going to keep his promise by saying since you scratched my back since you supported me I'm going to keep my word and support you when you put me after am power what you're not realizing is since he is betraying God he cannot be trusted in factu says to a when a asked him why did you not tell us that Sarah is your wife if she's your wife she tell us you his wife tells him plain and simple I saw that there's no fear of God here and therefore I concluded that if I tell you that she is my wife you're going to kill me meaning abah ainu didn't skip a beat here didn't Mumble his words he simply told him the conclusion is I saw that you don't fear God therefore you will H not have any problem any quals whatsoever about killing me just for the sake of taking my wife not you're going to steal her you're going to convince her you're going to do no no no simple you find out she's my wife you'll kill me right off the spot and the only reason why you're not killing me right now is because God got involved that's the only reason you're not not killing me because you suddenly found out she's my wife and you feel bad no your only reason why you're not killing me right now is because you have fear of God because God got involved shutting off all the orices of all of the uh uh of a and everybody in his kingdom they weren't able to even go to the bathroom weren't able to give birth God got involved therefore you're afraid before they weren't afraid of God so you had no problem killing me now you're afraid of God because obviously he showed you who he is to a certain extent in so many words abah ainu already tells us someone that does not have fear of God is at all times a potential murderer at all times the only reason he didn't kill is not because is not a murderer it's simply because either he did not have the opportunity or anytime he wanted to he was more afraid of getting caught of the loss of the downside of the risk of murdering then he was afraid of this uh situation that he was in meaning he didn't not kill because he's not a murderer he didn't kill because he viewed the other side as a bigger risk because if you're not afraid of God that in so many words You' become your own God you make your own rules you're not afraid of anyone so the first thing that tells us when it comes to a Jewish leader in any capacity whatsoever they must have fear of God and if we think that we can beat a system by picking the less of two evils and somehow these people are going to stay loyal to us these people going to keep their promise be says the same Torah that tells us this rule that he has to have fear of God tells us that by us enabling the Z the corruption the fakery we will see the punishment in our lifetime where these people that we give them more responsibility are going to end up using that to insult us to degrade us to bring us to the dust behind our backs in front of our faces so much so that he says perhaps you have forgotten what the says in page 41b says when you flatter a wicked person it's such a horrible thing in the eyes of God that he shows you your mistake during your lifetime where what that flatters a wicked person will end up falling into his own hands you say oh wow you're such a you're so smart you're so this you're so great you're so wonderful even though he's not he's a murderer he's a thief he's an immoral person he's an adulterer he's a liar he's everything but you are kissing up to him why you kissing up to him because you figure maybe uh if I he's going to give me a job maybe he's going to give me a grant maybe he's going to uh this maybe is going to do that yeah but why are you lying about why are you saying that he's so great when you know that he's a rash I'm not saying go out of your way to go insult a guy but why are you flattering him what you're saying that he's good when you know he's bad you're saying that he's uh smart when you know he's corrupt and and he's you're saying that he's honest when you know he's a thief like why I know because you know listen after all you know he's the principal after all he's the Riva after all he's the president he's the vice president he's the board of director he's the this he's that you're thinking that if you flatter him it's going to help you but the Torah promises otherwise any time you flatter a wicked person promises that eventually you'll fall into their hands and if not into their hands because they die before they in essence stab you in the back hasem says you'll fall into the hands of his sons and if not into the hands of his sons you will fall into the hands of his sons Sons as the Torah promises in the book of Jeremiah chapter 28: 5 and 6 and Jeremiah the prophet says to Kana amen so may hasem do May hasem fulfill your words that you have prophesies to return the vessels of the Temple of hem and the entire Exile from Babylonia to this Palace in so many words when promises something just because it didn't happen exactly as you thought doesn't mean he not going to happen he says you flatter the wicked person you're going to end up losing out of it oh yeah but listen I flattered him he gave me the job but then he uh died the fact that he died you're not out of risk yet why he still has sons in the world oh but now his uh Sons moved away to uh you know to uh to Mars okay you're still not at a risk why his sons have sons the grandkids of the guy that you flattered in so many words at some point you're going to suffer a consequence for flattering a wicked person because this is literally abominable in the eyes of hem so much so that the same brings other sages that talk about how disgusting flattery of wicked people is in the eyes of Hashem says rabar any person who has in him flattery brings anger to the world as a Tora says in the Book of Job CH 36:13 and those with flattering Hearts bring on God's anger and not only that says his prayer is not heated as the same Torah mentions and they shall not cry out to him meaning to Hashem when he afflicts them meaning the fact that you flattered a wicked person is going to cause problems much more than you can imagine why you have just enabled supported and cered falsehood the exact opposite of the Tora the exact opposite of Truth furthermore says any person who has in him flattery even the babies in their mother's womb curs him a woman is pregnant little cute baby inside her belly waiting to come out after 9 months he overhears you complimenting the wicked board of directors of your local school of reformed people not a single one of them keep Shabbat but they decide to become on a board of directors of a and you're complimenting them oh you guys are doing such a great job you're so committed to the community wow you really are uh you know a li to uh to to our nation what light to a nation they Shabbat they drive on Shabbat they don't care about the sh they care about a position of power they're stealing from the sh they corrupt people you're giving them praise why because you want them to fund your uh little uh little uh teachings over there you want them to do this you want to do different things you want to do the same thing that politicians do you scratch my back I scratch yours you're flattering people the baby in the pregnant woman's belly is cursing you right now the baby hates you the baby hates you he doesn't come to the world yet he already hates you he's already cursing you what's the source [Applause] of where the one who tells the wicked person you are righteous the people will curse him and the meaning the Nations will anatheme him but the also is referring to the babies last but not least says any person who has in him flattery falls into G as it says in the book of Isaiah chter 5: 20 woe to those who say evil is good and good evil and after that it says in verse 24 of the book of Isaiah therefore as the tongue of fire consumes straw and stubble will flame pulverize meaning the verse in essence is saying that their root will be like rot and their flower will be like dust it's going to be blown away this is similar to what happens to a soul that's being destroyed by the fire of gon in so many words aside from being fear having fear of God and therefore picking the Right leader is warning us from picking the wrong Leader by thinking that listen we have to pick somebody that's more with the times that's more popular we got to bring a speaker even though he's not exactly following Al even though technically according to the V says you are a flatterer you should know that the wicked person that you're flattering will end up hurting you and why do people flut in essence we want to light to ourselves and direct everyone including ourselves to in show yeah yeah these are the right leaders says he says this is all going to explode in our face says all of these plans that we think that we could put Heretics As Leaders Wicked people as leaders people have know you got sh as Leaders whether it be a leader in a government or leader in a city or leader in a uh Sho leader as part of the board of directors leader in a school doesn't make a difference you put somebody as a leader that does not meet the qualifications of a Torah says the Torah itself promises that this will ultimately blow up in our faces in every hour in every time in every hour meaning in all time this is relevant to all times in fact they're going to do it in your face because those people that you put into power they don't hide their face they don't pretend to be what something that they're not they're tell you things you want to hear say listen you support me yeah sure I'll uh I'll build you a building for your Yeshiva you support me I'll uh give you some funding that you want but in the end you'll see how it all blows up it all blows up cuz he's not telling listen you elect me I'll become more religious you elect me I'll come pray with you guys no no he doesn't say that he says I'll I'm going to stay exactly as I am but I agree that if you put me in power I'll I'll hook you up I'll give you some stuff back he says those promises are going to be empty promises and whatever you end up getting is just literally going to be like putting poison in your cup it's all going to blow up in your faces why because these Wicked people they don't hide what they are they're not trying to pretend that they're something else they're just simply telling you that it's worth it for you to support them which anybody would say and that's why raas is in essence telling us that we have to be extremely careful with who he put into Power if you put yourself in a position where you are inviting a rabbi to your community or you are recommending for people to watch lectures by a certain Rabbi and that Rabbi is a heretic that Rabbi speaks in ways that are foreign to the tah they're against the tah but you decide to do it anyway because you figure that this is what's going to bring an audience or better yet more common you decide that you're going to have an event and you want to have an event you want to bring a rabbi but you know that in order to get an audience you have to bring some singers and different theatrics in order to get people to come now there's certainly a way to celebrate there's certainly a way to entice people to come but you have to be very careful why because if you have singer that are betrayers of the tah or you have a party that is against the toah where there's mixed dancing or there's a uh you know all types of drinking all types of loudness and immorality that whole thing is going to blow up in your face yeah but I'm bringing the rabbi that's the only way I can get 500 people to come it's better nobody comes than you doing it in the way that's against the toah say listen I'm going to put this guy he's going to be on the board of directors of the Sho why he's not religious he drives on Shabbat everyone knows that his business is corrupt why would you put him on a board of directors because listen we're Jewish organization after all and he's a Jew okay but he's against Judaism he doesn't keep to Judaism yeah but listen he's very rich and he knows a lot of rich people so maybe he could bring more donations to us oh you think that if you put him on the board you're going to be able to build the Yeshiva with his donations that's your mistake that's your mistake what you don't realize is that this same secular person that you're putting into Power because he's rich is going to end up destroying your entire shoe and whatever you've built not only you're not going to succeed in building what you want to build whatever you've built is going to be destroyed why you're bringing an enemy into your land one fool recently tried to show how foolish he is was caught on camera he's a journalist religious and he wanted to get the attention and highlighted for the attention from bib Netanyahu so bi Netanyahu is walking by him this journalist religious journalist says to bb nany bb you are the M of this generation what what flattery you what kind of punishment he's going to get for that you called a secular reformer supporter of missionaries M of the generation not only you have to apologize to you have to apologize to all of but why did he do it because he figures listen if uh me as a religious journalist I tell BB that uh I'm supporting him he'll think that all the you know uh religious people support him and maybe he'll more support us more it may be this it may be that no no you're not understanding how it works being a flatterer to Wicked people is never an option it's never an option unless your life's at risk your life wasn't at risk you didn't have to go get his attention he wasn't putting a sword to your neck but people have accustomed themselves to flattering whoever is in front of them because they think that's the way to win that's the way to win and unfortunately this is not only a problem in the politics that we have nothing to do about like the politics of America politics of different count there's nothing we can do about that I think that on a personal note what Donald Trump is trying to do certainly is admirable as something somebody that's say trying to change in a positive way or at least that's the way it seems certainly I I I I uh think that it could work in a positive way for his country for whoever lives here certainly it's not going to be easy it's going to be a lot of Wars he's going to have to fight in order for that plan to work because you know saying one saying something and doing it there two different things there going to be a lot more Wars than what he's seen But if it works great one way or the other it's not in our hands is going to decide what what so the opinions are uh personal opinions which you don't have to agree with you don't have to disagree with it doesn't make a difference politicians in Israel same thing have nothing to do about it like BB don't like BB like benan don't like V all politicians simply if uh you know for the most part it's just self-interest people putting themselves in power pretending that they want the best for the people but in reality it's just a free ticket to do whatever they want while pretending that they're they're doing what people want there's nothing we can do about politicians of Israel when it comes to the world of Torah you can't choose what synagogue people going to go to or people are going to support what Rabbi people are going to listen to people going to support or the opposite that you can't do what you can do is give people the rules and the guidelines there are set rules whatas is telling us and certain guidelines if you're seeing that despite the fact that your community may be growing it's not growing more religious it's just growing in number then that means the toah is not succeeding in your community the rabbi is not succeeding success in the world of Torah is measured by how many more people are doing chuv how many more people are doing uh um MIT how many more people are learning Tor how many more people are doing what hasem says that's success so if you're a leader or leaders whether it be a rabbi or board of directors or whatever it is community leaders are celebrating growth of number growth of buildings growth of people while the spiritual aspects of it are either shrinking or staying the same then you already know that the leaders don't are not doing what they're say they're doing or perhaps don't even know what they're doing and you yourself have to start thinking about an alternative plan because if this continues all you're going to have is the outside come inside which in essence will affect the inside it's actually going to hurt those that are religious if you see that the leaders you have are supporting foreign religions foreign Customs foreign beliefs they admire the history of the G more than they admire the history of am they admire the leaders of the G more than they admire the the leaders of which means the of recent generation of current generation past Generations then you know that the leaders are not exactly people that have fear of God they're not exactly people that are going to grow am is to where we need to be and if you have have the ability to put somebody in power or influence other people to put somebody in power the number one requirement of a leader regardless of whether they're a leader of an entire Shool or even a small little class of five kids is the level of that a person has if you're going to say wait but how do I know if he has or he doesn't have if you don't know that means it's there's something missing meaning is something that you can tell at least to a certain extent based on the person's Behavior if this person eats wherever they want walks the way they want talks the way they want obvious they don't have is something that you see on somebody's demeanor somebody's Behavior so if the person that you have ability to put into Power has no then he's doesn't qualify even if he's Rich even if he's smart even if he's connected even even even even even he has all the qualifications world he has no not allowed to put him in the position of power so that's the rule the guideline is that if you've already made the mistake and have chosen the wrong leader a part of a corrupt system don't think that somehow at some point it's going to fix itself over time only way that it gets fixed is if it's uprooted and changed with what the Torah says it has to happen the wrong leader will not become the Right leader the corrupt will not become the just don't be like the fools that think that the evolution makes sense because it's over a long period of time a long period of time yeah well what how did the amiba become the monkey oh it was a long period of time I don't care how much time why why would it become a monkey and then later on a zebra and then later on a cat and then later on a butterfly no it's over a long period of time it's a stupid logic don't have that same false Logic the thinking that listen it's gone wrong all this time but eventually it's going to work no if it's on a wrong path it's going to continue being on the wrong path and in fact the longer the path the further it's going to be from where you want it to be so the guideline here is to make sure that if there's a mistake that you could recognize now based on now knowing the rule of fear of God requirements the way to fix it is very simple uproot break what you have and start a new replace it with what the Torah says replace it with to says if you see that the number one thing in your school in your house in your class in your family that's discussed is uh news and politics you can't just say listen maybe if we add a little bit of Torah to the politics then it's going to become better no no it's not it's not going to become better you have to upo it you have to make times where it's forbidden to speak politics or anything else other than to now of course you can't get people to stop everything from from that to zero but there has to be times where it's 100% what to us speak to us speak what we're supposed to speak about you have to make that change and changes have to sometimes be much more drastic than you think is possible but that's what's necessary the third thing is when it comes to leaders whether it be Jewish leaders or non-jewish leaders be very very careful when it comes to flattering be very careful when it comes to flattering why if you flatter a a wicked person the Torah promises this is so detestable in the eyes of Hashem that there's literally a punishment you're going to live to see now there are certain times where working with Wicked people is necessary because there's no better choice but even then you have to be very careful's Rabbi when he was younger in Yesa Wasim Salomon was bigad he refused refused to to live aive even for half a second it was a wicked mayor that was against the Torah against everything but the people wanted to make peace between him and the rabbi because the rabbi wanted to build extend the Yeshiva wanted to get another building and doesn't matter how much money you have or don't have without getting the permission of the city meaning the mayor it's not happening you're not going to get the approval so they arranged a uh event where I don't know hundreds of people came all the kids from the Yesa everybody came and they invited this mayor you figured if the the mayor shake his hand you know to become uh friendly he'll approve the building and the mayor knew that the rabbi doesn't care for him because he's a rash against the tabbat and he did things to go against the Torah and influence people to go against the Torah so anyway he wanted to get the uh Rabbi uh on his side so he came to this thing and the rabbi tells me he was there he was watching the whole thing the rabbi was like literally shaking didn't want to you know shake his hand didn't want to pretend even for a second but finally when it came to it the uh uh they on a stage and you know the rabbi like literally barely like reached his hand to like shake his hand barely gave him his hand and they shook hands you know people got excited you know the politicians made a big deal out of it but then one of the in Thea took a little step too far and he brought a cup of wine to give you know as a celebration for this you know this this new friendship and he wanted to give the mayor this cup of wine even though there's hundreds of people there no no no no no no no no it's too much don't give it to him don't flatter this guy don't flatter him plus of course if it's it's wine it could if he's doesn't keep Shabbat it makes it of course the mayor saw and heard this especially in front of everyone he ran away and the building was never approved until this day 20 years later so on one hand you say listen if you would have just simply close his eye let that happen maybe the building will be built you have to understand when they know that the line between you know the line that goes between flattery and and and something that's permissible it's it's very very thin and Below you is the abyss below you is the fire of G and therefore a person has to be extremely careful who they're flattering aronovich had a big Israeli flag that he put on his building of course he wasn't supportive of the zionists and uh all their heresy but he put this Israeli flag on the building one day one of the zealots of the community of the religious community Ki Community came and wanted to take down the whole flag people told them what are you doing don't touch it what do you mean these are zionists these are uh this is the Israeli flag we don't stand for this and this uh told him listen what does it bother you the flag the flag is not a religious St there's nothing religious about the flag and it's also not a confirmation that we agree with the heretical atheist communist ideology all it is is a piece of fabric that brings money so we could support more Tor so these secular zionists that hate the Torah and Hate everything we're not going to change them but they are kids there are people there are this in order for us to continue building the ISA bigger and bigger get more and more people to learn Torah we have to have not only per you know funding but we also have to have permission from the government so in order for us to get this if we need to put this little piece of fabric on the building and that's that's what brings it in what difference is it to us we're not agreeing with their ideology we're not supporting their ideology it's not a religious symbol what do we care about this flag this is what this this is what's we this is the ticket we need to have in order to get more Torah in the world rovic says that's what we have to do but that's because aov knew exactly how thin that line is between forbidden flattery and what you're allowed to do in order to publicize to in order to have peace in order to create peace and he also is very much aware of the Abyss that's under it if you fall off that line so when a person has a meeting with somebody else or an opportunity somebody else that's in a position of authority position of power you have to think twice before you flatter that person because there are certainly certain things that you're allowed to say and there's no problem with them but there are certain things that are absolute forbidden to go and let's say for example pray somebody for their great success in their business it's not a problem as long as you know this is you know this guy is not corrupt and he's really pretending to be success in business but in reality he's killing people to go and tell somebody like Elon Musk wow for being so successful in all of your business Endeavors there's no problem with such a thing to tell Donald Trump kak for you know beating your uh your foes and getting back into presidency or or or doing this plan that you're trying to you know to fix the broken system there's no problem with that because it's number one it's true and number two two it's not something you're not praising something falsely or something for that's that's somehow contradicting the toah but to go and tell somebody listen for uh you know for uh you being so welcoming and inviting uh missionaries to your synagogue such a thing is going to bring both of you curses both of you uh problems for uh not getting found out by your wife that you're cheating on her for doing such a thing don't be surprised if your wife cheats on you meaning that a person needs to know where this permissible praise and when there's forbidden fluty don't be one of those people that kisses up to people because you figure that's the cost of doing business or that's what's necessary to do everything has to be done with the Torah ideology behind it as a foundation whether it's choosing a leader replacing a leader and by leader I don't just mean somebody at the top of the food chain it could literally also mean a teacher it could mean uh you know people that are in authority of something small too the Torah ideology has to be behind that and needless to say in the way that we communicate whether it be about Jewish leaders non-jewish leaders there are certain things that are permissible and recommended certain things are permissible but not recommended and then there are certain things that are simply outright forbidden and a person that wants to live a life of Torah and survive this war of am has to know all of them because the line of is thin and the abyss is right below us we have the ability and the tools to get to where we want to be without breaking the rules and we succeed in doing so thank you very much for learning
