The latest from Rabbi Brand; it’s too short to summarize.

Israel613 is a site which we have quoted here in the past. It seems the site is currently under repair. If the problems turn out to be permanent, we will the replace all the links. In the meantime, please have patience. For specific information, feel free to contact us.

I highly recommend the following article. The most interesting sentence for me (I like hard, unequivocal sources):

Hebrew sovereignty over Eretz Yisrael is the foundation for proper Torah observance (see Mishnah Torah Hilkhot Ḥanukah 3:1, the Ramban’s supplement to the Rambam’s Sefer HaMitzvot 4, Shulḥan ArukhEven HaEzer 75:6, Pesikta Rabati 34, Magid Mesharim Parshat Vayikra and Ḥesed L’Avraham 3:7) and Hashem’s Divine blueprint for mankind demands Jewish independence in the historic Jewish homeland.

Mitzvos cannot, practically speaking, be fully active without sovereignty (Geography is less important for this; Uganda works).

From Arutz Sheva, here.

I just heard the following quote from Rabbi Steinman:

לא נלחמים באייפון בהפגנות אלא באביי ורבא

My paraphrase:

One does not battle open internet access by protest rallies, but by Gemara study.
