U.S. Sanctioning Hizballah’s Enablers in Lebanon Today, the United States sanctioned nine individuals who enable Hizballah to undermine Lebanon’s sovereignty. By supporting the terrorist group, these individuals further the Iranian regime’s malicious agenda in Lebanon and actively obstruct the path to peace and recovery for the Lebanese people. Hizballah’s continued commitment to terrorism and refusal to disarm prevent the Government of Lebanon from delivering the peace, stability, and...

by Ram ben Ze’ev The Price of Misalignment: Memory, War, and the Illusion of Strength Today, Israel stands still. At the sound of the siren, the nation pauses in collective remembrance for those who were killed—soldiers of the Israel Defense Forces whose lives ended in battle. The numbers are heavy: 25,644 since 1860, leaving behind tens of thousands of bereaved families. Yet numbers, as vast as they are, do not capture truth. Words do. We say “fallen soldiers,” as though they stumbled. But...

by Ram ben Ze’ev Tzedakah: Justice, Not Performance There is a profound difference between what the world calls “charity” and what the Torah calls צדקה (tzedakah – righteousness, justice). The difference is not semantic; it is foundational. One is rooted in ego. The other in truth. The nations speak of charity as an act of kindness. It is optional, generous, even admirable. A person gives because he chooses to give, because he feels compassion, or, increasingly in our age, because he wishes...

by Ram ben Ze’ev The Lamb, The Stars, and the Illusion of Power The Torah in שמות (Shemot) commands something extraordinary on the eve of redemption: each household was to take a lamb on the tenth of Nissan, keep it for several days, and then slaughter it on the fourteenth, placing its blood upon the doorposts. This was not a quiet act. It was deliberate, visible, and defiant. To understand this moment, we must understand the world in which it occurred. Egypt was not merely a political...

by Ram ben Ze’ev The United Nations and the Politics of Historical Guilt The United Nations General Assembly has adopted a resolution declaring the transatlantic slave trade to be the “gravest crime against humanity.” While the horrors of slavery are undeniable and no moral person today would defend such a practice, the resolution itself reveals more about the modern political agenda of the United Nations than it does about historical reality. Before the vote, the United States...

by Ram ben Ze'ev The Problem with the Term “Orthodox” in Judaism The term “Orthodox,” so commonly used today to describe traditional Jews, is not a Hebrew word and does not originate from Jewish sources. Rather, it comes from the Ancient Greek word orthodoxos , meaning “correct belief” or “right opinion.” The word itself is formed from two Greek roots: orthos , meaning “straight,” “right,” or “true,” and doxa , meaning “opinion,” “belief,” or “praise.” From a Jewish standpoint, this already...

From “Board of Peace” to “Bored of Peace”: WireNews’ Satirical Range Gains Attention The satirical “ Bored of Peace ” product range created by WireNews and sold exclusively through Mayside Market is gaining increasing attention following its quiet introduction earlier this month. The range includes a selection of premium casual items such as organic cotton T-shirts, oversized high-neck T-shirts, printed hats and embroidered zip hoodies. The collection currently consists of eight items...

by Ram ben Ze'ev When a Man Believes He Answers to No One A curious phenomenon of the modern age is the man who proudly declares that he believes in nothing higher than himself, and yet expects to be trusted with everything that matters most in life. I saw a profile description on a social media account for a Jewish man in Israel who tells the world that he is a husband and a father. These are not small titles. In the Torah understanding of life, they are among the most serious...

by Ram ben Ze'ev This War Was Chosen As a Jew, an American, and a fervent supporter of Israel, I write this without apology: I shed no tears for Iran. The regime in Tehran has spent decades threatening Israel, funding terror, and building a regional network dedicated to Jewish bloodshed. If Iran were to launch an unprovoked attack on Israel, I would support the destruction of its military capacity without hesitation. But that is not what this is. What I object to, strongly and without...

by Ram ben Ze'ev When a Nation Forgets Its Covenant Throughout our long history, the Jewish people have faced enemies in every generation. Empires have risen against us, armies have marched against us, and rulers have sought to erase us from the earth. Yet the Torah teaches something that history repeatedly confirms: our greatest danger has never been the nations alone, but what happens when we forget who we are . From the beginning, the Jewish people were not created simply as another...

Mayside Books Publishes New Edition of Machiavelli’s 'The Prince' Mayside Books, an imprint of WireNews Limited, has announced the publication of a new edition of Niccolò Machiavelli’s The Prince , featuring an introduction by Ram ben Ze’ev. First written in the early sixteenth century, The Prince remains one of the most influential works of political thought ever produced. In this concise and uncompromising treatise, Machiavelli examines the realities of power—how it is gained, how it is...

Hard Water, Hard Luck: How Sage Appliances Leaves Customers High and Dry When a household brand builds its reputation on quality coffee, premium design and “barista-level” performance, customers expect more than glossy marketing. They expect reliability. They expect accountability. And when something goes wrong, they expect competence. One customer who contacted WireNews says they received none of the above from BRG Appliances Limited, trading as Sage Appliances, supplier of Sage coffee and...

by Ram ben Ze’ev The Nobel Delusion and the Price of Blood For years, President Donald Trump nursed a grievance. The Nobel Committee refused to crown him as the architect of peace he so eagerly proclaimed himself to be. Throughout his first term, during the 2020 campaign, throughout 2024, and right up until the Committee awarded the Nobel Peace Prize to Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado—who symbolically handed it to him—he spoke incessantly of the wars he stopped and the...

Why Authority Matters in Digital Media — And How to Maximise It with WireNews In the digital media environment, publication and visibility are not the same thing. Many businesses assume that if their press release is online, it will automatically appear at the top of Google searches. That assumption misunderstands how search engines work. “What you’re seeing is primarily a relevance and authority issue rather than a publishing issue.” — Bill White, Director of WireNews Limited Your...

by Ram ben Ze'ev The Obligation to Read the Megillah: Night and Day When the month of אדר (Adar – joy-filled month) arrives, our service of G-D reaches its crescendo in the reading of the מגילה (Megillah – Scroll of Esther). This is not a custom, nor a sentimental commemoration. It is a binding obligation upon every member of כלל ישראל (Klal Yisrael – the Jewish nation): men and women alike must hear the Megillah twice — once at night and once again by day. The source of this dual reading is...

by Ram ben Ze'ev The Silent Seller: How Bitcoin ETFs Turn Fear into Forced Liquidation The greatest risk in Bitcoin today is not volatility. It is not regulation. It is not even leverage. The real danger sits quietly inside the structure of Bitcoin ETFs, largely unseen by retail investors and deliberately softened by institutional marketing. That danger is the absence of human judgment at the moment selling matters most. When Bitcoin is held directly, the decision to sell is personal. It...

by Ram ben Ze’ev The Judeo-Christian Fiction: Stop Claiming What Is Not Yours In January 2020 I wrote Judeo-Christian Divide to address a growing falsehood: the claim that Judaism and Christianity share a common religious foundation. In the years since, that falsehood has not diminished. It has intensified. Today, ever more voices from foreign belief systems insist on associating themselves with Jews, with Israel, and with Judaism itself, as though repetition might somehow transform...

by Ram ben Ze’ev When a Yeshiva Forgets What It Is There are moments when silence becomes complicity. This is one of them. The recent appointment of a non-Jew, openly homosexual public figure as a Professor of Practice at Yeshiva University is not merely ill-judged. It is symptomatic of a deeper crisis: a Jewish institution no longer certain of what it is, whom it serves, or to whom it owes allegiance. A yeshiva is not a university with kosher branding. A yeshiva is a בית מדרש (Beit Midrash...

MEADHANAN Extends #DrivenByHumans Campaign with Public Visual Support for Human Drivers MEADHANAN Agency has today confirmed the next stage of its growing and important # DrivenByHumans campaign, introducing a simple, highly visible visual marker that allows drivers and supporters to publicly express their support for human-driven transport. Published and supported editorially by WireNews, the campaign continues to challenge the growing assumption that the replacement of human drivers with...

by Ram ben Ze'ev The Illusion of Profit: Why Strategy’s Bitcoin ‘Gains’ Cannot Be Realised There is a dangerous misunderstanding spreading among retail investors, and it centres on one word: profit . In recent months, Strategy’s public filings and presentations have increasingly framed Bitcoin price movements in terms of operating income, net income, and earnings per share. To the untrained eye, this implies something intuitive and reassuring: that Strategy is generating profits when Bitcoin...

by Ram ben Ze'ev The War on Words: How the Nations Distort Our Holiest Language Language is not neutral. For ישראל, it is the vessel through which קדושה enters the world. When the nations take our sacred words, reshape them, and hand them back to us with their meaning hollowed out, something essential is lost. Holiness becomes obscured, and the identity of our people is quietly eroded. Few examples reveal this more starkly than the distortion of שבת (Shabbat, rest) into the Christian term...

by Ram ben Ze'ev The Snare Within: Idolatry in Our Land and the Consequences We Refuse to See Israel stands today at a crossroads not defined by borders or politics, but by spiritual clarity. We face enemies on every side, and yet the greatest danger is not external. It is the one we have permitted—welcomed, even—within our own gates. We are commanded by G-D with absolute precision. In שמות (Shemot) 23:33 the Torah states: לא ישבו בארצך פן יחטיאו אתך לי כי תעבד את אלהיהם כי יהיה לך למוקש...

by Ram ben Ze’ev The Illusion of Stability: Why Strategy’s Bitcoin Model Is Cracking What happens when a company becomes so deeply committed to its core asset that it can no longer step away from it without causing its own collapse? That is the question now facing Strategy, and the answer is neither flattering nor encouraging. The company has become synonymous with its Bitcoin reserves. As of this writing, Bitcoin is trading around $86,700 per coin, and Strategy sits on a massive holding of...

by Ram ben Ze'ev The Rise and Fall of DOGE: When Politics, Ego, and Economics Collide It was not so long ago that President Donald Trump and his then-ally Elon Musk stood side by side, celebrating what they branded as the Department of Government Efficiency — DOGE — a cheeky nod to Musk’s obsession with Dogecoin and his habit of amplifying jokes until they become headlines. For a time, the two men were perfectly matched: each revelled in spectacle, each thrived on disruption, and each saw in...

by Ram ben Ze’ev The Torah Belongs to Humanity When the Gemara in שבת (Shabbat) 89a recounts the dialogue between the ministering angels and the Holy One, blessed be He, about whether the Torah should be given to humankind, the angels object, saying, “What is man that You should remember him?” questioning why such a sacred gift should be entrusted to mortals. Moshe does not answer by claiming that the Torah belongs exclusively to the Jewish people, but rather by distinguishing between the...

Το WireNews έχει πλέον επιβεβαιώσει τη συμμετοχή ακόμη ενός ατόμου, του Σταύρου Γεωργίου , ο οποίος δραστηριοποιείται σε απάτες χρησιμοποιώντας βρετανικό αριθμό κινητού τηλεφώνου (07350 029130) και φέρεται να εμπλέκεται άμεσα στην παραπλάνηση θυμάτων ώστε να επενδύσουν στην ψευδή πλατφόρμα συναλλαγών Profitosx24.

WireNews has now confirmed the involvement of another individual, Stavros Georgiou , who operates a fraud using a UK mobile number (07350 029130) and is alleged to be directly involved in persuading victims to invest in the fraudulent Profitosx24 trading platform.

2nd Floor, Waverley House, 7–12 Noel Street, London, W1F 8GQ Το WireNews αποκάλυψε περαιτέρω στοιχεία σχετικά με μια οργανωμένη επενδυτική απάτη που λειτουργεί υπό το όνομα «Profitosx24». Μετά την προηγούμενη αναφορά μας , η PayPal επέστρεψε σε ένα θύμα ολόκληρο το ποσό που είχε αρχικά μεταφερθεί. Ωστόσο, προτού ολοκληρωθεί η επιστροφή, το θύμα — μαζί με αρκετούς άλλους — είχε ήδη πειστεί από δύο άτομα, τον Νικόλαο Στεργίου και τον συνεργάτη του Χρήστο Ψημολώτη, να στείλει επιπλέον £1.200...

2nd Floor, Waverley House, 7–12 Noel Street, London, W1F 8GQ WireNews has uncovered further evidence of an organised investment fraud operating under the name “Profitosx24.” Following our earlier report , PayPal refunded one victim the full amount originally transferred. However, before that refund was processed, the victim — along with several others — had already been persuaded by two individuals, Nikolaos Stergiou and his associate Christos Psimolotis, to send an additional £1,200 via...

by Ram ben Ze'ev The Tragedy of Aher: The Sage Who Could Not Return He was once among the greatest minds of his generation — brilliant, respected, steeped in Torah and philosophy alike. Yet he would become known not by his name, but by his absence from it. The Sages no longer called him Elisha ben Abuyah ; they called him Aher — “the Other.” Elisha was born into privilege in Jerusalem during the late Second Temple period. His father, Abuyah, was a wealthy and influential man who admired Torah...

MEADHANAN Launches #DRIVENBYHUMANS Campaign to Keep Humanity in the Driver's Seat MEADHANAN Agency today announced the launch of #DrivenByHumans, a public awareness campaign urging consumers to support human-driven taxis in response to the rapid rollout of autonomous vehicles such as Tesla’s proposed Robotaxi and Waymo’s self-driving fleet. The campaign, published and promoted through WireNews, highlights the irreplaceable value of human instinct, empathy, and accountability in driving —...

by Ram ben Ze’ev The Reform that Failed to Reform In the wake of Reform UK’s electoral surge earlier this year, many heralded it as a political awakening — the rise of a new force prepared to shake the dust off Britain’s stale establishment. Yet, just months later, the cracks are visible and widening. As many as thirty-four councillors have either resigned, been suspended, or been expelled. For a party that won 677 local seats and gained control of ten councils, this represents a troubling...

by Ram ben Ze’ev The So-Called Jerusalem Cross: A Symbol Misunderstood When photographs emerged of now–Secretary of War Pete Hegseth proudly displaying the tattoo of what he calls the “Jerusalem Cross” on his chest, the reaction among Democrats and Leftists in the United States was immediate and predictably hysterical. They condemned it as “Christian nationalism,” “Crusader imagery,” and a threat to “diversity.” Yet, as usual, their outrage was both selective and shallow — because they...

by Ram ben Ze’ev The Global Burden of Uninvited Empathy The Internet was meant to connect the world — and it has. But in doing so, it has blurred the boundaries between awareness and intrusion, between caring and carrying . What began as an exchange of information has become a contest of opinions. Everyone feels compelled to speak on everything, everywhere, as if silence were an act of betrayal . Social media has made this even worse. The platforms that claim to “connect” us have, in truth,...

WireNews NewsDesk Prime Property Auctions Under Scrutiny for Potential Breach of Estate Agency Law Two related companies trading under the name Prime Property Auctions are facing questions about whether their online “modern method” property auctions comply with UK and Scottish estate-agency and consumer-protection laws. According to company filings, Prime Property Auctions Limited (Company No. 12751013) is registered in England and Wales with a correspondence address in Birmingham, while...

by Ram ben Ze’ev Trump, the Nobel Committee, and the Myth of Middle East Peace The Nobel Committee has announced its choice for this year’s Nobel Peace Prize and—surprise to some, though not to me—it isn’t President Donald Trump. Frankly, this should shock no one. The Nobel Prize for Peace is, at least in theory, awarded for lasting contributions toward peace. It is not intended for short bursts of diplomatic theatre for headlines or deals whose longevity is measured in months rather than...

Offtek Ltd Reneges on Refund Promise After Selling Faulty Laptop Memory A UK-based technology supplier, Offtek Ltd, is facing legal...

by Ram ben Ze’ev Two Years On: We Remember, We Wait, and We Resolve Two years have passed since the barbaric atrocities of 7 October 2023. The images of that day are seared into our collective soul — a day when evil showed its face without disguise, when innocent men, women, and children were butchered, assaulted, and dragged into captivity simply for being Jews living in their homeland. As we approach this solemn anniversary, our nation stands united in memory and purpose. As we prepare to...

by Ram ben Ze’ev The New Fiat? How Tether May Be Recreating the Old Deception in Crypto The New Fiat Masked in Crypto When Bitcoin was born, it was supposed to be a revolt — a monetary system free from central banks, free from arbitrary inflation, a digital gold beyond manipulation. Yet today, we may be watching a new version of fiat currency emerge — not issued by Washington or Frankfurt, but by Tether. In early October, blockchain monitors observed the sudden minting of two billion dollars’...

Hebrew Synagogue Unveils New Branding to Reflect Tradition, Learning, and Community Hebrew Synagogue today unveiled its refreshed branding, presenting a bold and unified identity that reflects its mission of faith, learning, and service to the wider community. Hebrew Synagogue operates Beth Israel Synagogue in Scotland and serves as an advisory body on Jewish religious practice, widely consulted by both public and private agencies. Fully funded by Mayside Partners Limited, Hebrew Synagogue...

by Ram ben Ze'ev The Repeated Error of Assimilation Judaism teaches that words have power. Speech can wound, heal, elevate, or destroy. That is why our sages warn against לשון הרע (lashon hara – evil speech), the misuse of words to belittle or harm. This prohibition applies even to words that are true, if their purpose is to shame or diminish another Jew. But guarding against lashon hara does not mean we must remain silent when Torah itself is distorted. On the contrary, the Torah obliges us...

Traditionally, WireNews has charged £100 per article for corporate press releases and sponsored content. Recognising the growing demand from companies that wish to publish more...

by Ram ben Ze’ev No Treaty, No Compromise: The Torah’s Eternal Warning “You shall not make a treaty with them” — דברים (Devarim) 7:2. The Torah could not be clearer. The Jewish people are not permitted to make treaties with those who hate us, nor are we permitted to allow them to dwell peacefully in our midst, unless they renounce עבודה זרה (Avodah Zarah — idolatry) and accept the sovereignty of ה׳. This is not an obscure command, nor one confined to the seven nations of כנען (Kena’an). It is...

Forex Fraudsters Target Victims Across Europe – PayPal Turns a Blind Eye A shadowy operation posing as a legitimate financial services company has been exposed for selling unlicensed Forex and other financial products across the EU, including in Greece and the UK. Victims have been directed to pay through PayPal under the guise of purchasing web hosting packages or other irrelevant services, a tactic designed to circumvent regulations that prohibit such unlicensed activity. WireNews has...

by Ram ben Ze’ev When a Shield Is Reduced to a Star: B’nai Brith Canada’s Leadership Crisis A father publicly boasts that his daughter told him not to wear a Star of David necklace, and instead of correcting her, instead of teaching her that it is not a star but מגן דוד (Magen David – the Shield of David), he broadcasts it to the world as if it were some profound moment of wisdom. This is not wisdom. This is failure — as a parent, as a Jew, and as someone entrusted to represent our...

by Ram ben Ze’ev The Mob Owns Nothing, But Claims Everything We live in an age where every person with a smartphone believes they are entitled not only to an opinion but to an audience for that opinion. The public square has become a digital mob arena where nothing is too small, too distant, or too irrelevant for self-appointed critics to inject themselves into. This sickness is not harmless. It corrodes management decisions, weakens institutions, and erodes our cultural fabric. When every...

by Ram ben Ze’ev The Illusion of “Being Based” — A Torah Warning In today’s cultural landscape, the phrase “being based” has taken on a positive tone — a badge of honour for those who refuse to bend to the opinions of others. In its modern usage, it often means standing firm, unapologetic, and committed to one’s own beliefs. Yet in the light of the Torah, this modern “virtue” frequently bears an ancient name: קשה עורף (kesheh oref — stiff-necked). The Torah warns repeatedly against this very...

by Ram ben Ze'ev The Unseen Blade: Words That Harm and the Wisdom of Restraint There is a teaching our sages delivered with sobering clarity: “Just as one may not wrong another in commerce, so too is it forbidden to wrong another with words.” This comparison, drawn from מסכת בבא מציעא (Masekhet Baba Metzia), exposes a profound truth—one we often ignore in our daily interactions. The pain of a financial loss may be measurable and reversible. The pain of a wound inflicted by the tongue,...

by Ram ben Ze'ev The Grave Sin of Assimilation: A Wake-Up Call to Our People We are not like the Nations. We were never meant to be. The commandment is clear: והייתם לי סגלה מכל העמים – “And you shall be to Me a treasure from among all the peoples” (שמות Shemot 19:5). We were chosen by G-D, not because of our numbers or our might, but because of our mission: ואתם תהיו לי ממלכת כהנים וגוי קדוש – “And you shall be to Me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation” (שמות Shemot 19:6). Holy – קדוש...

by Ram ben Ze'ev The Ten Faces of Bitachon: Your Soul, Your Mission, and Trust in HaShem In the Torah, trust in HaShem is not a concept but a calling. It is not merely a feeling of comfort but the soul’s very orientation toward its Creator. The Hebrew word for trust—bitachon (בטחון – trust)—appears throughout the Tanakh, often interwoven with deeper nuances expressed through other terms. These ten expressions of trust are not poetic variations; they are spiritual stations—soul-gates—through...

by Ram ben Ze'ev The Fire That Should Never Burn: A Plea for Halakhic Burial An alarming statistic has emerged in recent years—50% of American Jews are cremated. Not just secular Jews, not just unaffiliated Jews. Jews. Our brothers and sisters, each created in the image of G-D, choosing a path that is not only foreign to our tradition but in direct violation of Halakhah (הלכה, Jewish law). Cremation is not a modern innovation. It is an ancient practice rooted in paganism and used by empires...

by Ram ben Ze’ev Unseen but Undeniable: The Divine WiFi of HaShem’s Presence In a world increasingly obsessed with proof, data, and tangibility, many have grown blind to the very essence of reality. They ask: “Where is G-D?” They question His existence simply because they cannot see Him. But consider this: when was the last time you saw a WiFi signal? We live immersed in a sea of invisible forces. WiFi permeates our homes, cars, offices, and, חס ושלום, even our synagogues. And yet, not a...

by Ram ben Ze'ev There’s Nothing Free About It: A Lesson in Government Delusion Today, I received a letter from the NHS—at first alarming, then simply aggravating. It wasn’t an invitation. It was a decree. I had been scheduled for an Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Screening on 21 August 2025 at 9:30am. No consent requested. No conversation. Just a decision made somewhere in a bureaucratic maze that my body now belonged to their timetable. The letter itself—a three-page A4 missive, plus an NHS...

by Ram ben Ze'ev The Space Between the Letters: Where Return Begins Before the first word of the Torah is written, before even the first letter—there is silence. An empty parchment. A space. It is within this sacred silence that all creation begins. Not with time, but with space . Not with noise, but with stillness. And it is there—in that space—that תשובה (teshuvah, return) begins. Teshuvah is not only our journey back to G-D; it is the Divine journey back to us. Through אמונה (emunah,...

by Ram ben Ze'ev The Halakhic Framework of Bishul Akum: Understanding the Prohibition and Its Permissible Boundaries The Sages of Israel, in their unmatched wisdom, instituted many decrees to preserve the holiness of the Jewish nation and to prevent assimilation and spiritual decline. One such decree is the prohibition against eating food cooked by a non-Jew, known as בישול עכו"ם ( bishul akum – cooking by a non-Jew). This rabbinic restriction remains in force to this day and is observed by...

by Ram ben Ze'ev How Public Talk of Terror Strengthens Our Enemies In times of terror and tragedy, good people often struggle to know how to respond. The natural instinct — particularly in an age of relentless media and instant communication — is to speak: to share, to bear witness, to denounce evil aloud. Yet in doing so, many unintentionally serve the very purposes of those who commit such heinous acts. This truth must be confronted, particularly by those who seek to live in accordance with...

by Ram ben Ze’ev The Mountain Still Calls On Sunday evening, as the sun dips below the horizon, we will gather to celebrate חג השבועות (Chag HaShavuot), the Festival of Weeks. It is the culmination of seven weeks of counting the עומר (omer) since the festival of פסח (Pesach), a sacred journey that leads us to this moment — the giving of the תורה (Torah) at הר סיני (Har Sinai), Mount Sinai. But Chag HaShavuot is more than a commemoration of a historical event. It is an eternal call, echoing...

by Ram ben Ze'ev Trading with Terror: The Price of Jewish Lives A proposed ceasefire agreement has been placed before the Israeli government and the Jewish people. Its details are by now widely known: a temporary cessation of hostilities, the release of 10 living Jewish hostages, the return of 18 bodies of murdered Jews being grotesquely held by Arab terrorists, and in exchange, the release of 125 Arab terrorists serving life sentences, and the release of 1,111 additional Arab prisoners...

by The Editors Death by Fees: The Hidden Costs of REITs and Property Funds That Devour Investor Capital The British public has been trained to believe in property. “Safe as houses,” they say. And for decades, that confidence was justified — bricks and mortar were solid, dependable, and profitable. But today’s property landscape has changed. And nowhere is that shift more dangerous than in the world of high-fee REITs and private Property Funds. What appears to be a regulated, safe,...

by Ram ben Ze'ev Time to Reclaim What Is Ours — No More Compromise with Terror Once again, Jews have been slaughtered—not for what we’ve done, but for who we are. In Washington, a young Jewish couple, full of promise and hope, was executed in cold blood by a terrorist whose only motive was to murder Jews. His final words— “Free Palestine” —echo the same genocidal slogan chanted by the terrorists who invaded our homeland from Gaza on 7 October. And yet, somehow, world leaders still speak of...

by Ram ben Ze’ev MicroStrategy Inc. (NASDAQ: MSTR) has become something of a poster child for Bitcoin fanaticism . Once known as a business intelligence firm, today it is better understood as a high-stakes proxy for digital gold speculation. The company no longer lives or dies by the merit of its software—it survives on the volatile tides of Bitcoin. Its CEO-turned-evangelist, Michael Saylor, has led this transformation by converting nearly the entire balance sheet into a bet on a digital...

by Ram ben Ze'ev The Idolatry of Outrage: How the Nations Amplify Evil and Distract the Jewish Mission I believe that evil is not merely sustained, but amplified by and through the Nations—that is, the nations of the world. With every act of antisemitism, the global chorus of outrage grows louder. Governments, organisations, influencers, and even well-meaning individuals rush to condemn, protest, and "raise awareness." But beneath this façade of moral virtue lies something far more troubling:...

by Ram ben Ze'ev The Tanya: The Soul Must Ascend or It Descends In Pirkei Avot (1:13), we find a striking statement: "כל המרפה עצמו מדברי תורה, יש בו אשמת נפש" ( Kol hamerpeh atsmo midivrei Torah, yesh bo ashmat nefesh )—“Anyone who relaxes his effort in words of Torah bears guilt for his soul.” Though the language is measured, our sages understood this as a profound spiritual warning: to let go of growth in Torah and service of Hashem is to endanger the very vitality of the nefesh . The...

by Ram ben Ze'ev In מסכת שבת (Masekhet Shabbat) 89a, the sages record a striking scene between the heavenly angels and משה רבינו (Moshe Rabbeinu). When Moshe ascends to receive the תורה (Torah), the angels protest, questioning why the most sacred gift of Divine wisdom should be given to flesh and blood. The response: "In reward for the fact that they called you man, you are not an angel and the Torah is applicable to you." At first glance, this line appears to reinforce the chosenness of עם...

by Ram ben Ze'ev The Marketplace of Evil: How Social Media Fuels the Yetzer Hara There was once a time—not long ago—when people thought carefully before they spoke, let alone before they broadcast their opinions to the world. Today, with the tap of a finger, we share, repost, and comment without hesitation. And while the world marvels at the power of instant communication, Torah reminds us that every word, every action, and yes, every click , carries weight—eternal weight. We are taught in...

by Ram ben Ze'ev The Tragic Consequence of Assimilation: When We Let the Nations Define Us Assimilation has consequences. Not only in how we dress, eat, or celebrate—but in how we speak, and even more dangerously, in how we think. The Holy One, Blessed is He, commands us in ספר ויקרא (Sefer Vayikra – Leviticus) 19:2: דבר אל כל עדת בני ישראל ואמרת אלהם קדשים תהיו כי קדוש אני ה אלקיכם “Speak to all the congregation of the children of Yisrael, and say to them: You shall be holy, for I, the L-RD...
