Iran Strike: ‘Adverse Consequences’ Did Not Materialize

2 days ago | queensjewishlink.com | Sergey Kadinsky

In the 46-year history of Iran’s theocratic government, American political leaders in both parties stood by sanctions and condemnation of the country’s sponsorship of terrorism, repression of dissent, and nuclear ambitions, even when the door was open to negotiations.
The One Sheet

1 week ago | queensjewishlink.com | Mordechai Schmutter

If you’re planning on getting married nowadays, you won’t get far without a shidduch resume. Ask anyone. Well, not anyone with a child of marriageable age, because none of those people had shidduch resumes. Nor did any gedolim. In the old days, nobody had shidduch resumes. What on earth did we do? Maybe everyone kept it all in their heads—I don’t remember. There were a lot fewer people; I know that. Definitely for most of Jewish history, there were no resumes.
String of Attacks Leaves Jewish Community On Edge

2 weeks ago | queensjewishlink.com | Moshe Hill

A string of attacks on Jewish-owned businesses in the Five Towns has left a community rattled. While the crimes are not being labeled as anti-Semitic in nature and are currently being considered personal vendettas—not attacks on the Jewish community as a whole—it is understandable that nerves are frayed and conclusions are jumped to. High-profile attacks on Jews worldwide are reaching a breaking point as more people fall into the Palestinian trap.

(Author’s note: At the end of the article there will be strategies on how to rank your ballot to ensure that socialists get as few votes as possible in the Ranked Choice Voting system.) With only a few weeks until the Democratic primary in the New York City mayoral election, the competition for who will be in charge of the largest city in the country is reaching a boiling point.

2 weeks ago | queensjewishlink.com | Susie Garber

Details Community Corner On Tuesday evening, May 27, the Navigating the Medical System Lecture Series featured a virtual lecture hosted by Congregation Etz Chaim. Dr. Margaret Huynh, an Assistant Professor of Neurology at Weill Cornell Medical College and an attending neurointensivist and neurologist at NewYork-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell Medical Center, shared many valuable facts about traumatic brain injury (TBI). TBI is an injury to the brain caused by an external force. It can result from...
Chapter 12: Dilemma (Ada, 46 CE)

2 weeks ago | queensjewishlink.com | Susie Garber

Recap: Daniel and Yisroel Meir are putting flyers in the campus library for a Rosh HaShanah program. Ahmed starts grabbing them and throwing them away. They notice he’s talking to Tasir. They run away, head home, and decide to read more of the historical book. Galla strode away before I could find out if she had overheard. Of all people to overhear, Galla was the worst. She loved to gossip, and she didn’t care if it hurt anyone. Should I go and plead with her?
My First Trip Up Har HaBayis

1 month ago | queensjewishlink.com | Moshe Hill

Details Opinion Columns Approximately 12 hours after I stepped off of Har HaBayis, the Temple Mount, the holiest site in the world for Jews, I realized that this was the article I had to write this week. Normally, I do not write about my own experiences, save the occasional plug for my Nassau County Legislature candidacy (election November 4, fundraiser July 1—go to HillForNassau.com to donate), but this time I felt that sharing my experience could be helpful in the time before one of the...

Chapter 11: Uncomfortable Encounter

Details Style And Living Recap: Rabbi Diamond takes the boys to the police station to report the man chasing them from campus. The police are indifferent and say they can’t do anything. (Daniel, 2024) “Dad, please, can you come with me? Yisroel Meir just called and invited us for Friday night dinner this week.” My father was on the phone. He signaled for me to wait. When he hung up, I repeated my request. “Danny, I’m sorry. That was a researcher. I have to travel to Delaware for a conference...
Nach: Is It Only for Girls?

1 month ago | queensjewishlink.com | Mordechai Schmutter

No one ever talks about Nach. Well, sometimes the rav talks about it. But most rabbis do not. They don’t even talk about the second half of the parshah. They’re saving that for some rainy day, if they ever run out of things to talk about on the first half of the parshah. So most people have a pretty solid knowledge of what happens at the beginning of every parsha, and a fuzzy-at-best knowledge of the end.
