The English language edition of Yated Ne'eman published in Bnei Brak under the direction of Maronon Verabonon has been terminated by the management. There is an attempt underway to establish a monthly, and to explore other options for continuing in various formats. If you are interested in sponsoring a continuation of this project, please contact: editor at shemayisrael dot com. Yated Ne'eman is the only publication in the world that is directly controlled by rabbonim. It brings you what the rabbonim think you should read and not just what a publisher thinks that you want to read.
Israeli Report Shows Hizbullah Efforts Conceived and Executed
in Sin
A report compiled by an Israeli think tank shows that
Hizbullah's entire approach to warfare is a war crime

Israeli civilian targets, is also a crime.
A wave of cancellations broke over El Al early this week as
the chareidi community reacted to the chilul Shabbos
of the air line this past Shabbos. Several frequent fliers
reported that they received personal calls from mangers of El
Al asking them not to cancel their El Al trips. Nonetheless,
Chaim Romano, the director of El Al, was unrepentant, as he
said in remarks to the press that the company reserves the
right to fly on Shabbos in "unusual circumstances."
Following attempts to amend the law to allow local
authorities to cover routine maintenance costs at chareidi
educational institutions run by the municipality, MK Rabbi
Moshe Gafni attacked Atty. Amnon de Hartoch, head of the
Justice Ministry's Support Department, for trying to sabotage
the government and the Knesset's efforts to amend the law.
Bnei Brak's Ma'ayanei Hayeshua Medical Center (MYMC) has
joined with Dor Yeshorim to launch a free umbilical cord
blood bank in an effort to save more Jewish lives. Like all
the hospital's projects, this was created with the
haskomos of leading rabbonim, including HaRav Shmuel
HaLevi Wosner, HaRav Nissim Karelitz and HaRav Yitzchok
Zilberstein.
Chareidi cities are the most beautiful, cleanest and best-
kept in the country. Five chareidi cities won prizes from the
Council for a Beautiful Israel at an awards ceremony last
week as part of the Beautiful Community in a Beautiful Israel
competition. In addition to receiving five stars this year,
Beitar Illit received the Golden Star for remaining among the
prize winners for five consecutive years.
In the presence of maranan verabonon gedolei Yisroel,
roshei yeshiva and rabbonim, a meeting of
principals of Bnei Brak talmudei Torah was held on
Motzei Shabbos, parshas Vayeiro. The meeting discussed
the ways to help melamdim to improve, through the
guidance of yirei Shomayim with wide experience in
chinuch al taharas hakodesh.
The following are the decisions reached at the Kenes
Chizuk on the issues of tsnius that was held on motzei

Jerusalem Beis Yaakov Schools Left Without Maintenance
Services The Chinuch Atzmai Parents' Committee of Jerusalem is warning
against the risk of contracting illnesses and infectious
diseases in the city's schools after the Justice Ministry and

educational institutions.

Education and Finance Ministries Approve Early Retirement
Quotas for Chareidi Teachers Bais Yaakov teachers will now be eligible for early
retirement just like teachers in the general education

Bringing Bais Yaakov Teachers' Studies Under Rabbinical
Control
None of the rabbonim or askonim has a good explanation
for why things in the higher levels of Bais Yaakov were left
as they were for so long. But from now on things will
definitely be different, be"H. The Persistent Battle for Proper Chinuch and Tznius
Some people live with the illusion that things in life can,
by nature, run of themselves. Such feelings are actually
educational sleeping pills, and those addicted to them are,
choliloh, liable to wake up one day and find
themselves headed for disaster. Through their indifference
they have lost the chance to halt their children's
degeneration.
