A short thread exposing @TorahJudaism for the imposter account that it is.
I first came across this account right after it posted, and started to pretend to be Jewish and posting videos representing the Haredi position on Judaism, Israel and Zionism. He went under the name “@RabbiAmramBlau”

I could immediately tell he was lying about who he was:
1) he posted at a time where it would have been impossible for anyone not to desecrate the Shabbat whether they are in America, Europe or Israel

2) he used the name “Amram Blau” without any of the honorifics that should be used, something that would be EXTREMELY rude to Rav Blau
In Haredi society, one of the biggest way you could disrespect a Rabbi would be to call them by their name without calling them a Rabbi/Rav/etc. I feel uncomfortable even quoting how he wrote it even though I’m not at all Neturei Karta.

That’s just honorifics *before* the name.
Once someone passes away, honorific titles are always used. Z”l, zt”l or ztk”l, zy”a etc are always added, especially by people who are part of their movement, just as shlit”a is almost always added during their life time.

The name was bare, because he’s not of our community.
I called him out on it, and he didn’t e even understand what I was referring to, and displayed a dismal understanding of basic Judaism/Halacha as well:
He might be ignorant of Judaism, but he’s not entirely stupid, so after I called him out & he deleted the tweets showing his violation of Shabbat, he was very careful to avoid posting on Shabbat from then on, making sure that it wasn’t Shabbat either in America or Israel
He also changed his name a few different times, until he stuck with @TorahJudaism.

I just mostly ignored him, because he was a small larping account. Well, he’s not such a small account anymore, but he is still larping and still making major mistakes.

Exhibit one:
@TorahJudaism He’s been oh so careful about not posting on Shabbat… but what about Yom Tov? Specifically, Shavuot. Here are the receipts:

If he is in Israel, on the 25th he was posting in the middle of Shavuot (1st tweet). If he was in America, he was posting on Shabbat & Shavuot (last 2)

@TorahJudaism What kind of a Haredi Jew would be tweeting in the middle of Maariv in shul?! Or post about Turkish elections (?!) on Shabbat Shavuot?!

Well, when you realize the account is ran by a Turkish Muslim, it makes a whole lot more sense.
@TorahJudaism Of course, last Tisha b’Av, he was also tweeting that the land of Israel doesn’t belong to Jews, either. Definitely worth doing that instead of saying kinnot, right? Image
@TorahJudaism Even Neturei Karta would never ever say that “Israel is not the land of the Jews” ch”vs they 100% agree that it’s our land, that it not only belongs to us but that when Mashiach comes we will rebuild the Third Temple & be in complete control of the land.

@TorahJudaism is a larp.

@TorahJudaism @GnasherJew @StopAntisemites That’s just sad:
@TorahJudaism @GnasherJew @StopAntisemites And the inability to LARP properly continues
@TorahJudaism @GnasherJew @StopAntisemites And it keeps getting worse
@TorahJudaism @GnasherJew @StopAntisemites As pointed out here, they literally use google translate versions of Turkish wikipedia to write tweets:
@TorahJudaism @GnasherJew @StopAntisemites And of course yesterday they finally admitted that their team was made up of Muslims and Jews.

They are almost there, they just have to admit that the Jews in their teams are made up.

I have a genuine question for non-Jews, but I hope we can have a mature & respectful discussion as I’m not trying to say anything inflammatory. It’s an outgrowth of the last thread about Orthodox Judaism’s view, and I’m genuinely interested in the ramifications.

Here we go:

Isn’t the treatment of Xianity by Islam far more theologically problematic than Judaism’s?

In Judaism we flat out say ‘We both believe in G-d, but we don’t agree on the identity/details.’

In Islam, it’s not simply a question of rejecting the identity/details, but outright denial of the crucifixion, death on the cross, and resurrection while simultaneously relegating him as 100% human and subordinate to someone they see as more perfect.

As a Jew, I know that I personally consider it far worse to take the Jewish Bible and rewrite it, versus adding books to it that I do not consider valid as canon. Or is it a case of partial acceptance and therefore it’s not considered theologically as bad?
And before anyone interjects with “But, in the Talmud it says…,” please read the following two wonderful articles by @GilStudent that will demonstrate how memes on the internet are there to mislead, not educate:

talmud.faithweb.com/articles/jesus…
talmud.faithweb.com/articles/jesus…
This question came to me because yesterday someone replied that Judaism had far more in common with Islam and… well it seems true superficially (lots of similar practices due to Islam copying them off of Judaism) and seemingly closer as far as the incorporeality of G-d, I can’t help but feel that it’s far worse to say ‘We pretty much agree but your holy book is fake and counterfeit. Your ancestors corrupted it but we have the real version.’

That sits far less well with me than people saying they are a continuation of it but still revere it as 100% true and accurate even though they have a wildly different reading of certain parts than we do.

Which led me to wonder how things would be perceived from the other side of the fence on such a thorny issue.

If someone is not familiar with Judaism, rather than pontificating on it, they should ask those who are.

For Jews, their beliefs are entirely considered idolatry. The G-d who took us out of Egypt is not a man.

For non-Jews, it is shittuf, an association. A theological mistake.
According to the majority of decisors in Jewish law, we believe non-Jews who have embraced the gospels truly want to be monotheists, it’s simply that they were lead astray from proper beliefs but ultimately their meaning is not idolatry, and that’s why it’s not qualified as such.
While we believe that the proper path for humanity is to follow the 7 Laws of Noah, from a Jewish perspective it is 100% better for a non-Jew to believe in the gospels and to try to live a righteous life under G-d than it is to be an atheist and do it under moral relativism.

Everyone’s talking about cold plunges & biohacking their morning routine… but there’s a much older secret, based on sacred wisdom, that has powered the most influential men throughout history…

It’s ancient. It’s powerful. And it might just change your life.

A 🧵: Image
Here’s the 10-step secret ritual upholding the world:

1. The Sacred Shutdown
2. The Trust Drop
3. The Gratitude Trigger
4. The Energy Cleanse
5. The Alignment Sequence
6. Wearable Awareness
7. The Soul Strap
8. The Daily Upload
9. The Nourishment Loop
10. The Midday Breakaway
The Sacred Shutdown

Your day doesn’t start in the morning - it starts at night.

This practice clears the spiritual static and sets the tone for everything that follows afterward.

Pick up a prayer book, and pray the Evening Prayer!

I am all for seeing the children of Jewish fathers & non-Jewish mothers being treated nicely and welcomed by the Jewish community if they want to learn about their paternal heritage.

Treating them decently doesn’t mean we have to rewrite either Torah or history, however:
We are a nation, and there are rules as far as how to become fully fledged members of said nation. Until 1983, no one worldwide denied the fact that it was either through a conversion through Jewish law or a Jewish mother to be considered a Jew. Others were known as ‘Zera Israel’
Imagine a child brought to America by his parents. They overstay their visa, and decide to make their lives here despite no legal statute. They have a child who grows up here and only knows America as their home country.

That child is still not legally considered an American.

Every oven could burn 2-3 bodies at a time, and it took 20-30 minutes to burn a body. There were 30 ovens in Crematoria II and III in Auschwitz. Assuming they ran continuously, this means the range would be between (2b
X 2hh X 30 X 24) and (3B X 3tm X 30 X 24), 2880 and 6480/day.
Make it an average of 4,680 a day. They were operational for almost two years.

That means that with only those two crematorium, assuming they were burning bodies 24/7, in two years they could have cremated:

3,416,400 bodies

That’s not taking in account IV, V and open air pits
Let’s not forget that when the Holocaust began, over a million victims were killed in the “Holocaust by Bullets” and buried in mass graves.

The only reason you can’t fathom how the Nazis could have possibly killed (and cremated) so many bodies between 1939-1945) is ignorance.
