I haven’t seen Palestinian leaders come up with any kind of a two state solution or talk about living in peace with Israel. I only hear about how bad Israel is and how it should be destroyed.

I dont really understand how rent strikes work. I mean you refuse to pay your rent. Right now they cant evict you cause they stopped evictions. But eventually you are probably going to have to pay that rent. So aren't you just ending up with a bunch of back rent?

@rabbigerald on #RoshHashanah- Don't start your new year with an Oy by worrying about all your problems. Start your new year with hope of positive things for the future.

I want to also recognize an amazing Jewish woman. Rebbetzin Bonita Sussman has dedicated her life to making the Jewish community a better place. She also has helped many on their journey towards becoming Jewish (through her work at @Kulanu_Inc). She is truly amazing.
