  1. one of these videos is on the most watch list this week.
    not all time.
    the most watched video on you tube has 220,000,000 views, the idf video is not even close.

    ty

  2. I only hope that some of the viewers will understand what they’re seeing – a state-sponsored incident designed to provoke Israel.

  3. Satmar Rebbe zt”l said: “If a goy is anti-Zionist he is an anti-Semite.”

    We shouldn’t lose our heads though. The Zionists proved today that they treat frum Jews worse than terrorists. A father of 11 walked by a protest and was beaten so severely he died today from his wounds. Hy”d. Eleven orphans, and they wonder why they’re called Nazis! This is the fourth frum Jew (after DeHaan, Segolov, and Samet) killed by Zionists in cold blood. We will never forget!

  4. If the head of a country (PM of Turkey) that has killed 1.5 MILLION people (Kurds) can spearhead a political attack on a country that killed NINE people, we have surely lost the public relations battle.
