Rejuvenation: On Two Wings and a Prayer

[Music] hi everybody this is apparel host of rejuvenation on the land divisional Network I am taping this intro on Tuesday March 3rd 2020 the seventh day of Adar 5780 which incidentally is traditionally the day that Moshe Rabbeinu was born and passed away many many many many many years ago it's been a total whirlwind in the last few days which is also why this show is coming out late this week look at it this way you'll only have a few days till the next rejuvenation you won't have to wait an entire week speaking of whirl winds by the way and all joking aside if anybody's listening from Nashville Tennessee I know that I've got listeners there I certainly hope that you're okay and that any damage or you know anybody who got hurt in the tornado that I just heard about a few hours ago they is going to be okay Wow what a what a crazy terrible thing and once again the power of nature like there's just nothing we can do so at least we don't have tornadoes in Israel which is good actually weather-wise we don't have the really really crazy stuff just everything else is really crazy as you know I made a wedding a week and a half ago then one of my granddaughter's had about Mitzvah last week and the next day the Wednesday night I got on a plane and flew to the United States I went to Washington DC just for the weekend literally for like 80 hours something like that to be at the AIPAC policy conference partly and a whole lot of other things I are very on you say Fleischer made a lovely event Thursday night at CPAC and I was his last speaker kind of a last minute thing and that was terrific and met some really remit and met some really great people they're connected with like-minded people people who love Israel so it was a really terrific event spend Shabbat at AIPAC also connecting and reconnecting with people people that I've guided people that listen to this show people that I've seen over the years and once again AIPAC does not have the communities of Judea and Samaria at all for discussion although they did have a discussion on to help the Arabs in Gaza and israeli-palestinian Cooperation some like a little confused they're not political they are political they don't want to take on the heavy duty discussions and anything that's controversial it definitely seems like it's an organization that is a little bit confused it's trying to be bipartisan is getting spat in the face released this year by the Democrats so I don't know what's going on there but I will keep pushing and hoping that next year maybe there will be a panel there was last year with my own mayor oh did Reviva and that's what that but nothing this year but it's a it's a really it's still a great organization and to go there and to to feel the love of Israel among thousands of people who come from all over the country who's really still a very powerful thing and I know that a lot of people have given up on AIPAC people on my side of the political spectrum and I understand why and it is frustrating there's a lot of good people who go there and yes I was still upset when in Howard court the opening remarks still talks about a two-state solution is like are you in a time warp what exactly is happening here but it still gave a platform to ambassador David Friedman and to others who spoke the truth about what's happening here and didn't back down so um you know and still hoping that there will be a panel next year where these issues can finally did be discussed the main reason that I went in is because my very own one Israel fund and the Endowment for Middle East truth Emmet had an event on Saturday night we got about 50 60 people there was considering that it was put together really really at the last minute and not with no time to advertise we were up against outa the opening of Fowler the third season which they were showing at AIPAC and a whole bunch of other things that were happening on Saturday night and it was really also a lovely group of people who didn't know each other who got to meet each other a wide variety of people who came in I was really honored to be on the panel with dr. Harold Road the Islamic expert and close friend and also sarah stern the head of himmat two tremendous people who are doing just so much from where they are in the Washington DC area and and then came back left there went to AIPAC on Sunday morning did some interviews actually gonna hear an interview soon with Jake Bennett right after our event good friend and very very active guy out in Arizona and then and then I went to AIPAC Sunday morning and I went to the opening event that they had there and then um went into the village where they have all kinds of like great displays and people who are there doing all kinds of unbelievable things showing the armadillo for example which is the new shrapnel proof blanket that was developed with a lot of input by Marc provider who's the security expert also works for an Israel fund and close friend and a lot of other people doing some really incredible things so I snagged a couple of interviews there and you'll be hearing those at the end of this show as well could have spent like really all day there just roaming from booth to booth so much great stuff going on but I had to catch a train and then a plane back to Israel because there was no way that I was missing elections here so landed on Monday afternoon did something insanely stupid which is look at the board and see that there where the carousel is before the flight from Newark and I go over there and wait for 45 minutes for my suitcase and it's not coming out and I don't get why because it was one of the fight it definitely got on the plane and then went back to the board to check and realize that I had flown from Newark on L o but the carousel that I was standing out was the United Airlines Newark flight I've never made that mistake before and as you command I'm not gonna make that again I don't know why it didn't occur to me that there might be two flights coming in from Newark at the same time so toddled on over to the correct air assaults on my suitcase right away my very patient husband was waiting outside and got home took shower went out to vote because there was nobody in line after me when I got to the voting booths I had a few extra minutes I went into the voting booth said the prayer for the welfare of the State of Israel and as usual cried with the privilege of being able to cast the ballots in my very own country and in some way affect the future of my people and yes you're thinking okay if it's like three times in one year as my daughter said her my seven month old granddaughter she's seven months all about her daughter my seven month old granddaughter she's seven months old and she's already lived through like two elections she thinks this is just something seasonal but no it doesn't get old still special it's still rewarding and it's still so so so important and and that's why a lot of the Israelis either didn't go to APEC at all this year or left early or someone that I know who votes right and had to be in the States because she's actually speaking at AIPAC on Tuesday so she couldn't make it back for elections but she told me that her husband who votes left she sent him out of Israel on some business trip so at least they cancelled each other out so everybody did their own thing but it's funny how you know you say like Oh big deal she didn't vote or one vote here one vote there but it does make a difference in these elections and it looks like are still going to be hinging on just a few votes either way nothing is clear seemed really clear last night because what I did after I was in the voting booth is drove to Jerusalem where I was on the jns of the Jews new service which is a gay you have to know what it is and you and read their articles but they have had a panel Election Day panel I was invited by Alex Trainmen I was there with Danny seaman old friend Danny seaman and mr. Alec castanet in the four of us did a three-hour panel last night talking about the different parties talking about what's coming up in bp's trials and the elections and of course we were there when the first exit polls came out which looked like a bigger victory for the Likud than it is apparently going to be at the end which always happens the examples never get it right so again so votes you know one vote here one vote there it really can it's important it's still it's a little country and it's still important to be a part of not just the process but we actually can make a difference so did that got home at about midnight laundry this and that sick son and went to sleep at about two o'clock and was up at six this morning because there was what to do and I wanted to get to the pool and I'm back home and it's a beautiful day in Jerusalem so it's been a really wild last few days and this also explains why rejuvenation came out late this week because I was traveling all day Sunday and then Josh had Monday and Gil had Tuesday which is good because elections so here I am today broadcasting on Wednesday but hopefully makes week we'll get back to a regular schedule and it will be on a Sunday so as I'm traveling all over the place they'll like the lady on the plane back my ll flight back to Israel she and her husband were both wearing masks although here in Israel it's like even though Israel has been stricter than virtually any other country in terms of like cutting down on people coming in right like if you're so I'll give you an example that directly affects me one of my son's is graduating Medical School which is such a big deal after six years in Pahlavi Italy and we cannot go next week because we can go no one's gonna stop us from going except that then we'll have to be in quarantine when we come back for two weeks and neither my husband nor I can afford to do that so or want to do that so it turns out that of course we're not the only parents who aren't going really very few people are going and in the end this big deal graduation ceremony getting your medical degree is going to be in a small room with graduates their professors and a Skype camera for everybody to Skype in so I guess the important thing is to get the degree but still it's such a big moment in his life and we're so proud of him it would have been great to be there but what can you do I mean these things are just really out of our control so hopefully this will get into control and not you know grow exponentially and you know tourists will still be coming to Israel I'm I've so far none of my tourists have canceled and is you know or excited about coming to Israel and realize that Israel's being you know really strict so we don't have a whole lot of cases here at all but I do have I do know of other tour guides who people have cancelled and aren't coming and I get it people are afraid to travel right now everything is fine and I trust Israel because they're being so strict that it's they're still you know having people come in and out then we're good to go definitely not taking it you know lightly in any way shape or form but it's just really really crazy how something like this can just cancel so many things and have such an effect on the economy as well as I'm sure all of you know whether your investment stock market or not you know a lot of and a lot of things of course manufactured in China that aren't gonna be getting out there so you know we think we're so smart human beings and we are and we do a lot of things but in one second we see really how fragile we are how ineffective we are how we try and do things but then I want to call them acts of God you want to call them acts of nature you can call them whatever you want but something like a tornado right or weather or whatever it is or something like if this is some kind of you know plague or I don't know whatever they're calling it like that can just change everybody's plans in a minute and so we have to make our plan so we got to do we got to do but we also have to realize that as they say in the holy tongue how could be they some I am in the end everything is in God's hands so having said that I will leave you now to the interviews that they did over the weekend and thank you for your patience thank you especially this week a big big shout out both to Tabitha and to Ben because this show was like really crazy and cobbled together and I was like sending them one interview and sending them another interview and sending them pictures and Tabitha put together this whole collage and they are really amazing and you guys never hear from them but they are really the rock behind all of us here at the station and they make us look good for very little kudos every single week so thanks again to Tabitha to been really a big shout out and for all of you out there just stay well stay healthy and and thank you for listening Eve Harrow rejuvenation on land of Israel Network love to hear from you you can write to me eat at the Land of Israel dot-com and check out my website eat herro calm when and will I be in the States again looks like the end of April I'm supposed to be there and you can be in touch with me if if you want to do like speaking things or have me come into community I would always love to do that because as long as the skies are open I'm gonna be traveling I'm gonna be spreading the word because what's happening here in Israel is happening on this Jewish journey is way too important to keep it to myself I'm just not it is February 29th which doesn't come around all that often every four years I am in Washington DC we just finished our panel we did a judea and samaria panel co-sponsored one israel fund on and I met so I was deeply honored to be on the panel with Sarah Stern and with dr. Harold Road but we had a very eclectic mix of people that came to hear us and who were here for the Shabbat here in Washington DC so good friend Jake Bennett showed up and he has been very very busy in Arizona so Jake what have you been up to in your home state hi Eve so we've been providing first I should say I work now for IAC for action Israeli American Coalition for action and that's the government affairs arm of IAC the Israeli American Council the IAC does cultural stuff bridging the gap between Israel and America across the country doing amazing work making that relationship a two-way street bringing Israeli nough sand Hebrew and and celebrations of Israeli holidays that a lot of American Jews don't know like Yama smote and Yamazaki on so Independence Day and Memorial Day for Israel's fallen soldiers and Israeli Yahshua and they've got ongoing programs through the year I see is amazing so that was a quick plug for that but at IAC for action we're working on government issues policy issues fighting anti-semitism is a big one fighting BDS so state level legislation that the anti BDS legislation gives Israel a kind of an economic Iron Dome against international boycott and the anti Semitism legislation that we're providing legal and and educational resources on and in helping with in in a number of states he's really focused on the the growing problem in America of not just anti-semitism but the this old anti-semitism packaged in a new bottle the anti-zionism anti Israel ISM and American Jewish kids are being targeted on campuses and mistreated and discriminated against in a variety of ways student councils student organizations boycotting other student organizations academic boycotts of that frankly there hasn't been enough protection for and enough understanding of by people that this is anti-semitism because the anti-israel folks while motivated by anti-semitism will mask this as as a political speech it's for politics that that we hate the Zionists we don't hate Jews we just hate Zionists we hate Jews who connect to Israel so you know god forbid you're actually a Jew that does your daily prayers which connects obviously to Israel every day or have your Passover Seder and say Chanel Bobby or shall I'm next year in Jerusalem obviously Judaism and Jewish culture connects the Israel and and this form of anti-jewish hate and and bigotry and discrimination and and in the end crime as well has gotten has managed to slip through the cracks by disguising itself because not you know your average Joe who's the policeman or the or the academic administrator or the or the the judge in the in the courts they're not experts on understanding and unmasking so the IHRA the international Holocaust Remembrance alliances definition of anti-semitism breaks it down includes Sharansky's three DS demonization double standards and D legitimization and explains the people here's when here's when anti-israel criticism goes from being acceptable when it's like criticism of any country to being anti-semitic there's a line that gets crossed now the legislation we're working on to adopt the definition doesn't affect anyone's speech rights in fact it protects free speech so one of the criticisms we get from the ACLU as they say oh you're gonna chill speech people are going to be afraid of saying whatever they want to say about Israel and we say our bill to adopt this definition it's for use in crime and discrimination it does not affect anyone's speech rights crime and discrimination are not protected free speech if you are breaking the law or breaking statute regarding two discriminatory action that is not protected by free speech rights but we will when we see that crime and when we see that action discrimination we can look at your words to know whether there was a discriminatory intent a bias intent and that's where this definition helps helps the lawmakers and law enforcers and judges understand what's going on so if they look at this definition and they look at let's say what the BDS movement is doing when they are when they are spreading conspiracy theories and blood libels about abducting children or or medical experiments on Palestinian prisoners or the Jews controlling the world all of that people will understand that this is the old anti-semitism packaged in a new bottle and so you just have this past in Arizona you live in Phoenix you live in Scottsdale Phoenix and and you have this done you've been working mainly in Arizona or not just where we're working in several states in Arizona we just got through the house we passed fifty two to eight which was wonderful it was a bipartisan support Republicans and Democrats came together on this which is hugely important these days especially absolutely hugely important so next it has to go to the Arizona Senate and then to the governor to sign all in good time and uh and yeah we're working on supporting several other states as well you Jake I've known for a long time now and as an example of somebody who decided that something had to be done loves is Charles served in the Army you know is now living the United States it just said I have to I have to get involved and got involved so for all of you who are listening or like complaining and you something needs to be done and somebody needs to do something this is the somebody if someone once he had in touch with you and learn from you or maybe do similar things in their own home state how would they do that you can reach me at J Bennett the initial jb e NN e TT at IAC for action and for is spelled out fo r action org sounds great thanks Jake continue hi everybody Eve Harrow rejuvenation on the land of his own network I am recording this on March 1st 2020 I'm in the APEC village the enormous room underneath where they have all the speeches upstairs I was up there for a little bit and now I'm down here before it all hits I also have to I'm only here for a few hours because I have to head home this afternoon so I can vote on Monday I will not not vote again but I'm wandering around and they have a they have an Iron Dome is here the original Iron Dome is here but they wouldn't give me an interview which is very interesting this that they're not allowed to said I could talk about it and I took a picture of me with it but I think you guys know what that is the the keep ha the dome that has kept a lot of missiles from hurting a lot of people in Israel whether you think it's good or not that we're not dealing with our enemies because we have this protective dome that helps keep us do our day to day and not get to the root of the problem he's an interesting discussion but that one for today so right now I'm in a tent I'm in a phenomenal medical tent and I am going to be interviewing right now here we go a stuff just came up but you're good I thought okay so introduce yourself to my audience okay so I myself am an critical cares registered nurse and I'm also the deputy director of the sheba Medical Center disaster center sheba is one of the premier hospitals in israel just outside of Tel Aviv yeah exactly this is not the premiere this is one of the top ten second second-year known one of the top ten elected in music just yesterday actually the second time thank you so this is this is the this project is the only one in Israel that that the Medical Center takes upon himself to extend the medical arm towards whoever needed in the world and this is a one functioning unit completely functioning unit of field hospital we can deploy this ten tent array wherever needed in the world the setup of this hospital each unit of 50 between 56 to 78 square feet can be deployed in four to ten minutes and we can open our gates to patient in the matter of three to four hours one once touchdown so there's a tsunami somewhere there's an earthquake somewhere how do people know too close she because I know that there are other organizations there's one called is raid and flying aid and other were Israeli organizations who have been in the news a lot that they've gone out to Haiti in different places like that so how does she befitting how is she but different than these other organizations what you do here okay so all the organizations are very important and provide a very good assistance but we on top of it it's not bad but on top of it we would provide the entire state of the art medical assistance from surgery to intensive care to rehabilitation the entire things I mean is right and everyone else give medical assistance but mostly humanitarian but we do provide everything state-of-the-art just like you would be admitted to an actual hospital in Chiba so it's sheba physicians that go out to this or you have physicians not associated the hospital they're also like on your second list because you also can't leave Israel I'm thinking no Israeli okay so there's a tsunami or whatever in Haiti but what about the Israelis that need their doctors in Sheba how does that work so if the w-h-o calls for a disaster I mean if disaster strikes a country so the country issues call out to the entire nation on the planet - exactly to help and the WTO publishes it and we would take the call so we would extend our physicians nurses physical therapists logistic logic distance and everyone else towards anyone and this is only only sheba personnel would extend and deploy yes so have you yourself gone out on mission yes I've risen to be near to someone for the measles outbreak in December 2019 Mozambique February merge March 20:19 for the typhoon and a lot of other missions in the POW for 2015 birth quake yeah so very practical question so who pays for this if you get called out I mean the dubbed the World Health Organization puts out a call there's a disaster an international disaster I'm sure they call Israel they love when Israelis come because with such a reputation really of not just and not being afraid like going towards disaster a lot of other people run away and I can tell you personally that if I'm ever in really big trouble I want to hear Hebrew and if I hear Hebrew I know I'll be okay really it's like that and and I just to the core of my being and I'm sure not the only one and I can understand the Hebrew some others wouldn't be able to understand it but just know that you'll be in good hands but how is it paid for just the WHL cover the causes that the Israeli government is at the hospital itself what happens Shiva Medical Center will provide the entire thing from the tent to the consumables to the actual physician nurses and all the medical staff and Sheba covers everything in pays for everything it's only mostly volunteer but but Sheba covers for the entire thing are there countries that won't take Sheba to come in because let's say they don't have diplomatic relations with Israel has that ever been a problem or when there's a crisis so just like they don't care about the diplom diplomacy they want you to come in in I have never encountered a country that refused medical aid for her citizens I've never heard something like that so well that's really really great to hear yeah I want to believe that whenever there is a call out for help I mean a country would not issue a call out for help just you know just like that so it has to be a national very broad disaster in order to for that to happen and I cannot see how is it that the country will refuse someone be stupid but then again people in the world aren't as smart as we'd like them to be there's so much of his offers that sometimes doesn't get accepted so one of the things that you're the one of the giveaways that you have here are little bottles of Purell because we're in the middle of this whole coronavirus thing I can tell my listeners also one of my son's is studying medicine in Italy my husband and I cannot go to his graduation in two weeks because we would have to be quarantined at home after we got back and even though I'd probably get a lot of Passover cleaning done I really don't want to be stuck in the house for two weeks so what is there has there been any kind of international callin that or that's not something that's considered an emergency on the level like of a natural disaster that they would need you to come in like every country's right now still managing to deal with it on their own yes for now each country is dealing the quarantine and coronavirus on her own right now we're dealing with a seven tested seven patient tasted people tested positive for corona none of them are ill they're asymptomatic for now and we're managing actually the entire thing with these kind of facilities both structured and tense so you're putting the people who are sick in these kind of temporary we currently we currently have structures and these tanzy's command center for the entire operation right now in sheba Medical Center and we're rebuilding more structures and if needed we can deploy these tents of course yeah super important because you also don't want people coming into the hospital getting infected like people who were in there who are sick so it's really a it's very important to know and understand that it doesn't matter if it's inside the buildings of the Shiva Medical Center or not everyone gets the the whole the same care exactly in the same standards nothing is deduced because it's not inside of the Sheba walls is the same thing whether it's extended in the field hospital in units of tent units or it's inside a wall it doesn't matter because the only thing that actually matters is the hands that gives you medicine and this is what really matters is the people that's always like that isn't it so just another question because there's a tremendous amount of equipment that's here is all this equipment sourced out of Israel or this is equipment that you have to bring because one of the things that's come up is because China develop it sends out so many things so many things are manufactured in China and now there's gonna be delays getting it out of there because there people aren't going to work have you found that you're not getting some of the equipment that you need or Israel has enough of a stockpile that it's not a problem we're currently have no problem with equipment we have everything we need I can tell you because you can't see him a soft does not look worried in the least this is the guy that you would want next to you if God forbid a disaster struck okay ice off anything else no just want to thank you for your interest and have a great day thank you as well and I'm sure a lot of people are gonna come by now hopefully and and this is super super impressive okay thank you so much everyone Yves Harrow rejuvenation still at AIPAC March 1st 2020 roaming around and see Hillary I came up to this desk jaesi jaea J screen do you know your risk about we'll talk about in a second and Hillary looks at me she was high because she was on the Israel bonds women's division trip that I did a few months ago which was so wild so it's such a small world it's great to see her thank you it's so funny to run into you I love it it's really great so what is this what's going on here with J screen what it's all about J screen is a non-profit we're a national nonprofit for Jewish genetic testing so our goal is not only to educate the Jewish community but also to provide access for genetic carrier testing so what is that it's not we're not diagnosing people with anything but rather letting them know if they're healthy carriers of different genetic diseases 226 to be exact and it's just a saliva test and it helps prevent these diseases in our future children okay so is it when people I know that their organizations who when people are going out seriously they go and they get tested do not told what genes they carry they're just told if together they have a likelihood of having a kid with a certain disease is that what you do or you do a panel and you tell people that they have I don't know a tendency to Gyan whatever it is in their family exactly right so we actually as a medical organization provide people with the results so it's just a saliva test anyone can go on lying to Jay screams org request a kit and we mail a saliva test right to them they provide their sample there's prepaid postage and then our genetic counselors about three weeks later do a video or phone genetic counseling session to let them know the results and it tells you if you're a carrier so again carriers are healthy you don't have symptoms the only way to know if your carrier is either to get tested or to have an affected child that's it so it's really important it's not just for Ashkenazi but first if you have Sparty background Mizrachi if you're adopted maybe one of your parents converted so about half of the diseases are more common in Jews anyone with one Jewish grandparent and the other half are just general population diseases so it doesn't matter your background Ashkenazi gene pool is a pretty toxic one so we know that for sure but like my Ashkenazi daughter just married a guy who's Sparty background so at some point they're gonna have to get into as well it's doing insurance issue though like let's say that somebody finds out that they their carrier could it be at some point I'm throwing this out I don't know if this actually ever happened that an insurance company could say well you know we're not going to insure you for having a child with something wrong with it or I don't know how that works with insurance anyway because we see that you have a tendency is there is this an issue in a very litigious world that we live in right so that's a great question so first of all in CH the crazy part is insurance doesn't even typically cover the at all rate which is so great we don't need to worry you would want to help prevent these diseases some insurance plans do but typically they don't so although insurance companies you know whether they cover it or not they don't really care about this because there's all these non-disclosure Act so genetic information non-discrimination if you're a carrier for this right because it's not gonna if that's you and they have no way of knowing if your partner's also a carrier so rate these are recessive diseases so it takes two to tango where they can dock you and this is just a good PSA for all the listeners out there is if you're gonna do BRCA testing bracha that that's for like breast cancer or female yeah female related disease yeah it's over and that's very common in Ashkenazi men and women if you are gonna do that screening you should definitely take out a life insurance policy before because that is the one type of insurance that you can be docked from so everything else it doesn't really matter and especially what we're doing but yeah that's the life insurance and the bracha testing is very important do you have people doing the screening because they're thinking maybe they have a Jewish background and then if they get like you know Nashik and Ozzy Jewish gene profile then maybe there's something going on back there even if they can't officially document it does that ever happen kind of backwards it actually happened with a couple where the husband was converting to Judaism and the wife was Jewish and they found out that they were taste acts carriers and he ended up finding his family history after the Holocaust his family converted to Christianity and then didn't end up he didn't end up having to convert because he really was Jewish and that was kind of backwards but really most people are using this for family planning we can screen anyone over 18 so 18 to 45 is really our core who's either going to be starting a family in the future or even expanding their family because the panel's changed so maybe they've had one child thank God and they're healthy but haven't been screened or only maybe for a few diseases they should definitely increase or expand their panel or get tested for the first time between pregnancies so that's important but because again there's usually no family history of these diseases so you wouldn't know that you're a carrier so everyone should do this it's a hundred and forty nine bucks so they really have no reason not to it's not even a blood test it gets mailed to their home and it's really to help prevent these devastating diseases in our kids and most people are offered this type of testing at their OBGYNs office when they're already pregnant right so that seems so backwards because then you don't have options to be able to have a healthy baby so this way if you know beforehand there's options such as IVF with PGD which is interesting that was actually one of our stops on our Israel bonds tour at Shaarei Tzedek and we met with the IVF doctor and this is a lot of what they do but you first have to know that you're a carrier to even go that route so this is hugely hugely important how do people get in touch with you if they're listening to this podcast and they say wow this is something that I want to do go online to G screen org JSC re en org everything's on there the disease list if you want to compare what you've already been tested to with what we test for if you want to speak with our genetic counselor it's really a homegrown you know Jewish community organization so we're here for them and we just want to continue helping couples have healthy babies right that sounds like a terrific plan Hillary it was so great to see you huh Brandon was that okay good luck with everything all right bye-bye [Music] while we're facing a threat of an endemic disease we conducted a whole election nothing can stop our Jewish Democratic state we want to have a say in the future of the Jewish people that is being written as we speak we are in the glory days of the
