Binyamin Netanyahu speaking before congress.

There was a great buzz of excitement when it was announced that Netanyahu had been invited to deliver an address before the entire congress. It was to be his second congressional address since he was first invited 15 years ago. On the evening following his address, I was told by a friend that it was one of the greatest speeches he’d heard in his life, featuring 29 standing ovations. I eagerly went to watch the speech, anticipating a great rebuttal to Obama’s pressure on Israel to give away our G-d given land to the Arabs. To my sorrow, it was anything but.

Every Friday as the sun sets across the earth, Jewish women light a candle or two and surround the planet with a ring of light. It's an auspicious time to request blessings for good health, for ample livelihood, and for children whose good deeds will light up the world. It is an opportunity to connect to the transcendent power of your soul, and to envision an era filled with true peace, joy and tranquility.

Setting up a Mivtzoim booth at a fun fair is commonplace among Lubavitch Bochurim. A Mivtzoim booth in Crown Heights, however, is quite unheard of. Yet amid the crowds of children dragging their parents from ride to ride at Sunday’s Lag B’Omer fun fair, bochurim were seen asking fellow Chassidim to take part in Mivtzah Torah.
