			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>It is common knowledge that a very intricate part of <em>Shabbos Kodesh</em> is our <strong>preparation</strong> for it. Authentic Jewish fathers prepare for Shabbos in a myriad of forms. This is usually based on the level of that father in the knowledge of Torah. Some prepare a <em>shiur</em> on a Rambam to say on the Shabbos table. Some prepare a <em>vart</em> on the <em>parsha</em>. Some simply look up a <em>Rashi </em>to share with the family during the <strong>holy time</strong> of the family gathering around the Shabbos table.</p>
<p>Women also prepare. Besides preparing all the Shabbos delights that Authentic Jewish mothers and girls work so diligently on and fill the entire air of the house with luscious smells from Wed. afternoon until <em>licht benching</em>, they too can prepare some Torah material for the Holy Shabbos. Maybe they will say some <em>Tehillim</em>, or maybe they set aside a <em>mussar seffer</em> to look at which they can enjoy and appreciate. (Books by Rabbi Miller are especially recommended), or maybe just a book with authentic stories about authentic Jewish values written by authentic Jewish authors.</p>
<p>However, I know for a fact that <strong>some</strong> Jewish homes, while maybe also preparing like mentioned above, also engage in other preparations. They go out and spend money to bring home with them <strong>toilet paper</strong>. Not clean toilet paper, but dirty toilet paper with <strong>feces</strong> on it. This toilet paper <strong>ruins</strong> the entire holiness of the <em>neshama</em> of Shabbos. It <strong>ruins</strong>, usually <strong>very subliminally</strong>, the mind of Jewish women and girls and those of the boys who read them as well. Any holiness that someone might acquire during the Shabbos, will be with no question, <strong>extinguished</strong> by the feces that is written on these pieces of toilet paper.</p>
<p>Now, I am not referring to The New York times. I know that all the readers of this blog are smarter than that. I am talking about the magazines which claim to be in-line with authentic Jewish ideology, but <strong>very subliminally</strong> undermine it. One of the most sinister, <strong>stinking</strong> pieces of garbage that is for sale &#8220;out there&#8221; on Thurs and Friday in order to <strong>contaminate</strong> Jewish homes on Shabbos is called &#8220;Mishpacha&#8221; and is sold in English and in Hebrew versions. This magazine has become very successful over the years being very well laid out graphically and by engaging very successful writers and journalists. However, for those who have any sense of Authentic Jewish smell, they know exactly what this piece of feces is worth and exactly <strong>where</strong> they want to lead their readers.</p>
<p>(We are not by mentioning this magazine saying in anyway that any other is any better. We will get to them as well)</p>
<p>We have decided to begin a <strong>crusade</strong> against this awful disgusting magazine call &#8220;Mishpacha&#8221; (Ruiner). It will be executed in different areas, arenas, and organs of the media. And indeed, Authentic Judaism in its <strong>righteous might</strong> will fight through to absolute victory, which in this case will be successfully <strong>ejecting</strong> this magazine from <strong>every</strong> Authentic Jewish Home.</p>
<p>We request from all our readers to draw to our attention any quotes, articles, or information that could be of a help in this worthy endeavor.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong> אנו בית ישראל! חוסו על נפשכם ואת נשמות בני בתיכם ואל תתן את המשחית הנקראת &#8220;משפחה&#8221; (גם באנגלית וגם בעברית) לבוא בתוך בתיכם. עמדו חזקים נגד אלה שכל רצונם וחפצם לטמאות נפשכם ונפש עולליכם ואל תתנו להם יד ורגל בתוך בתי ישראל הכשרים</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">
<p style="text-align: left;">[Update Dec. 7, a day that will go down in history in infamy]<strong>: </strong></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">A reliable source has reported that indeed &#8220;Rabbi&#8221; Dov Shurin <a href="http://blog.authenticjudaism.org/wp-content/uploads/16524.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-429" title="16524" src="http://blog.authenticjudaism.org/wp-content/uploads/16524-300x221.jpg" alt="16524" width="300" height="221" /></a>has been added as second in command on the Mishpacha Rabbinical Board. Mishpacha magazine explained this move by &#8220;wanting to open up to a &#8220;greater&#8221;, &#8220;more colorful&#8221;, reading audience&#8221;. The Magazine further said that Rabbi Shurin possesses all the needed credentials to be on the Rabbinical Board of Mishpacha, that being: A long beard, a black <em>yarmulka</em>, a guitar, <strong>and a deep understanding of the needs of bored women on Shabbos</strong>. Being that he is a grandson of the Late Reb Yaakov Kaminetsky he will fit in perfectly with the already tight woven board.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Authentic Judaism: It&#8217;s a <em>mashel</em>, but a <strong>real </strong>one.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>This past Shabbos night, at a very late hour, I lay on the floor learning the Holy Torah (why I learn laying on the floor is a subject for another post). I was next to a bookshelf and I took out an old notebook of mine. Inside I found a xeroxed copy of JB’s <em>Hesped</em> on his uncle, the <strong>Authentic Brisker Rav</strong>. As I skimmed through it I was <strong>impressed</strong> how somebody could get so much <strong>junk</strong> onto a page of paper. Such <strong>crazy ideas</strong>. It really read like a <strong>Breslov</strong> book written by some <strong>deranged Brisker</strong>.</p>
<p>Anyway, towards the end he says that his uncle wasn’t really “opposed” to Zionism and the Zionist State. Actually he was…(blah blah blah burp barf)  and explains the Brisker Rav’s lack of enthusiasm for Zionism and its State in <strong>cheap philosophical  rhetoric</strong> (which he absorbed in Berlin, apparently - <strong>while discovering his love for</strong>… whoops, sorry for bringing that up again).</p>
<p>This is an <strong>outright lie</strong>. <strong>Anyone</strong> who knew the Brisker Rav knew his <strong>vehement disgust</strong> with Zionism and <strong>everything connected to it.</strong> Not only was the Brisker Rav opposed to Zionism, he was opposed to the Agudah’s ideology as well. To water down the Brisker Rav’s <strong>hatred</strong> towards anything Zionistic  is an <strong>outright lie</strong> that only a <strong>veteran impostor</strong> like JB would even <strong>dare</strong> to attempt to foist on his unsuspecting audience.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>Yes, history repeats itself, but not because of some<strong> accidental reason</strong>. It repeats itself again and again because all history is running along the<strong> same blueprint</strong> that Hashem laid down at the beginning of creation.</p>
<p>Part of this plan is that<em> Epikorsim</em>, Jewish impostors, pop up again and again. Some are smarter than others, some are <strong>plain idiots.</strong> Some have mastered the <strong>power of the pen</strong>, other have <strong>verbal charisma</strong>. The common denominator of them all is that in the end they will all go lost leaving behind an<strong> ugly legacy. </strong>Our job is to <strong>battle </strong>them, trying to maintain them, so that their damage is as <strong>minimal </strong>as possible.</p>
<p>A new up and coming enemy of Authentic Judaism is an <strong>idiot </strong>(This one is as idiot as they come) named Nathan Slifkin. Slifkin is an animal lover <em>(matza min es mino)</em> who calls himself the “Zoo Rabbi”, the reason for this being, apparently, because his congregation and followers <strong>are also animals.</strong>    </p>
<p>Currently, Slifkin has dedicated his life to degrading<em> CHAZAL HaKEDOSHIM </em>as well as contemporary Authentic Jews.    <br />This Slifkin wouldn’t even be worth mentioning since anyone who reads his&#160; writings will immediately discern that we are dealing with a person who has a<strong> single digit IQ</strong>. However, we know that he has some <strong>impostor </strong>rabbinical personalities, (some of them we know their names, others are yet to be revealed) who support him. They also supply him with source material to forward his sinister anti-Jewish <strong>crusade</strong>.    </p>
<p>All we can do now is to <em>DAVEN </em>that this <em>BeHayma </em>and his wicked supporters <strong>disappear</strong>.    </p>
<p>Also, if you see any of his books in any bookstore, don’t be <strong>afraid </strong>to inform the owner that all the <em>Gedolim</em> have placed his works in <em>CHEREM </em>and they are <strong>forbidden </strong>to be sold. If the owner does not hearken to Daas Torah, organize a boycott of that bookstore. Slifkin lectures at different left-wing, modern orthodox<span style="text-decoration: line-through"> garbage dumps</span> synagogues, so inform anyone and everyone that he works for the Sitra Achra. We have more particular information about this lowlife, and if anyone could benefit from it, send an email.</p>
