Lev sarim u’melochim b’yad H’.
Hashem did it. Trump is just the tool.

All they need is an excuse and they have been rioting in Isreal for the past 2 days and burning cars and a few people got hurt, and they have been protesting here on Trumps decision

The Baal HaTurim referenced is on Possuk Tes-Vov of Revi’i: On the words, “ויחשבה לזונה” he compares it to the words from Eichah, איכה היתה לזונה, regarding Yerushalayim. He says, just as Tamar was degraded but at the end honored, so too Yerushalayim will in the end be honored. May we be Zocheh to see it B’einei Basar TODAY!

Hashem bless president trump! 👱🏽He has a lot of courage! He’s truly amazing!

I remember
December 6, 2017 8:19 pm

the Rebbe saying at a frabregen around the time of the Camp David talks,that if negotiations continue,the nations will be knocking/banging on the gates of Yerushalyim,ie to give it to the arabs. This of course occurred. Today’s events can only be interpreted as Moshiacdik.

It’s interesting to note that in yud tes kislev תשנ”ב the rebbe announced that we are right now in yemos hamoshiach!! Yes it’s true that we don’t have the complete redemption with the building of the beis hamikdosh etc. BUT the era of moshiach has definitely started, and the effect that moshiach is going to have on the world before he actually comes definitely started, as the rebbe said clearly in the sicha of mishpotim תשנ”ב in regards to the un.

how is this a step towards peace?
December 6, 2017 7:12 pm

the next step is telling israel . “cmon now, we’ve done what nobody’s ever done for you before. now you’ve gotta reciprocate and help further the peace process. how? by making serious concessions, guys.” we jews don’t need anyone to tell us that yerushalayim is the capital of israel. so now america tells us what we already know. hip, hip, hooray! what price is israel going to be asked to pay for this vacuous statement? what will they be blamed for if they don’t want to give away the west bank-especially now that iran is literally next door to us?… Read more »

politicians are not supposed to keep their promises. They are supposed to keep talking about doing it but never deliver so that they will always have that issue to run on for every election cycle

On Erev Y"T (Yud Tes) Kislev
December 6, 2017 5:54 pm

This is so amazing that on ER”H (Erev Rosh HaShana) LaChassidus the President of the US announces that the US embassy will be moved from TA (Tel Aviv) to Yerushalayim, pretty much by all the Y”T Kislev Farbrengens the Rebbe would speak abt E”H (Eretz HaKodesh) in all inyanim especially abt not giving back land & the security of the borders, Y”T Kislev is the Geulah of the Alter Rebbe which is connected to the final Geulah bec Chassidus is the revelation of G-d which is the whole concept of Melech HaMoshiach when the world will recognize & understand G-dlyness,… Read more »

The whole world will recognize Israel as Jews so this is one thing towards moshiach

Kol HaKavod to President Trump! In his own words he echoed the Rebbe’s counsel that “those who are afraid of the Nation’s o objections have seen in the past – and continue to see – the complaints remain just as strong no matter if Israel settles one place or the entire border.” Thus President Trump declared, “Today, we finally acknowledge the obvious — that Jerusalem is Israel’s capital. This is nothing more or less than a recognition of reality.” No doubt more work to be done but this appears to be on the right track and comes at an auspicious… Read more »

European cowards
December 6, 2017 2:47 pm

Europe is terrified of the Muslim response. The British PM came out against the move. Here I was thinking that Britian was the one European country with a backbone…

We’ve come a long way since WWII.

look at the baal haturim in today’s chitas!! amazing hashgacha protis! MOSHIACH NOW!!!!!!

Moshiach?!
December 6, 2017 2:36 pm

Whatever happens we are still in Golus. Moshiach will come when u do another Mitzva and help another fellow Jew (no matter if it means the Jew standing next to you who you know too well). Trump could play all his cards right or wrong and good luck to him, at the same time Israel will still be what is is, a country run NOT as a Jewish country.
We are still waiting and working towards Moshiach!

The last king of Edom turns over its treasure to Moshiach.
Trump,as the leader of Edom, recognizes that Yerusholayim
belongs to the Jewish people, 19 kislev, chag haguela is the seed of the geula shelemo.Trump would not have done this if the Sar of Edom had not consented, which explains the loud outcry from the world as they sense their imminent downfall to Moshaich.

December 6, 2017 1:56 pm

Obviously we care about what is happening in Isreal, but does anyone know the Rebbe’s take on the embassy issue?

i never thought it was important
December 6, 2017 1:54 pm

but it did give me the chills, esp chag hageula. whatever happens down here means something is going on lmaala or vice versa so looks like a step closer to geula, iyh, hopefully

The Rebbe always said that we must tell the world that all of Israel belongs to the Jews as an inheritance from Hashem and there is no 2 state solution to discuss
