Trump Against The Judicial System

laitman_245_10In the News (CNN): “Donald Trump turned to his favorite outlet for outrage over the weekend when he blasted out tweets to his 23.9 million followers lambasting the federal judge who temporarily suspended the President’s executive orders on immigration.

“After only three weeks in office, he is launching an unusual attack—not just on a particular ruling, but targeting a specific judge.

“‘Just cannot believe a judge would put our country in such peril,’ Trump wrote. ‘If something happens blame him and court system. People pouring in. Bad!’ Trump wrote.

“The message was clear. If there’s a terrorist attack, it’s the judge’s fault.”

My Comment: His predecessor, the previous president Obama, opened the entry of Muslims into the United States, following which, close to ten million Muslims immigrated to the United States. This could have bad consequences. We know that they have brought no benefit either to the state or the society in any country they have gathered.

Comment: But citizens in the United States have organized demonstrations against the ban on entry…

Response: People who were paid and directed to do this participated in these demonstrations because during the last 30 to 40 years, the media have caused degeneration and “disorientation” among the people so that people no longer know anything. That is why they are going out with fanatical conviction against Trump. They don’t understand that Trump represents a new movement that has ripened in the United States, which includes most of the population who understand that it is impossible to leave the nation in the custody of the liberals. This is even though we see that those “liberals” are ready to destroy anyone who doesn’t support their views.

Half of the people want one thing, and the other half wants something else. The Democrats took advantage of the opportunities that they had, so why don’t they want to allow the other half to run the country if this happened according to the constitution? Where is their pluralism? Pluralism implies a multiplicity of opinions in which it is possible to express every opinion. It has become clear that there is also another opinion that must also be given a place, but they don’t want this. Are they pluralists, liberals, democrats?! They are definitely not! It follows that they are like the fascists. They bought all the media. Is this a democracy? What is possible to brag about here?! This is shameful! After all, it is possible and necessary to convey everything through the legislature, through the political system, and if not, then it is against the law.

Question: As a Kabbalist, you are for a natural equilibrium system. What kind of equilibrium solution can exist here?

Answer: There is absolutely a solution of equilibrium that exists: in addition to the left one, a second, right lever should appear. Let’s call these two sides by their conditional names. There are demonstrators and there is, let’s say, Trump. Even though he is the representative of millions of Americans, including powerful citizens who have no inclination toward violence against others that voted peacefully and quietly, but they still seem not to be heard.

A balanced system would be when the right line, led by Trump, rises in direct proportion to the left line (the Democrats) so that the two lines will be of equal value, and then they will begin to build a middle line between them, an average state. Just as minus and plus exist in nature, they must join together into a single mechanism and create life within it. Then life will flow in cycles in a society in which the right and left lines are connected and they will work in partnership. It is necessary to teach this to the society and its leaders, because this is not found in either Trump nor in Soros who embodies the left line, nor in the others. Everyone will need to learn. But first, it is Trump’s time now.

A separate line there is no life; it is only in the connection between them. And separately the two lines now become fascist. The representatives of one side threaten: “Trump will bring fascism!” And they themselves will not? We see the results. Specifically all of the neoliberals, pluralists, and democrats of today are producing a more extreme right line; they are giving rise to fascism.

Comment: What this means is that the only way is the way of the middle line.

Answer: Yes. But now it is necessary for the right line to rise up and become stable, and then after that to move toward the middle line. To do this, we must reach some kind of balance, studying and working together, just as plus and minus work for a single engine and cause it to rotate. That is how it should be.

Islam, Spain, And The Entire World

laitman_437In the News (Breitbart): “Hundreds of posters displayed in a migrant-dominated part of Barcelona are urging Muslim men to marry Spanish women in a bid to spread Islam, and inviting members of the community to an ‘information meeting’.

“The posters, which are derogatory about Christians but call on ‘Brothers’ to marry women of the religion to ‘strengthen’ Islam, have been plastered through the neighbourhood of El Raval. Official data collected in 2014 found that 56.7 per cent of residents in El Raval were born abroad.

“’It is permissible and encouraged that the Muslim man marries honest and chaste women who belong to the People of the Book. Even though they have distorted and altered the tradition, they are still suitable for marriage.

“’Brother, enter a partnership with a Spaniard, teach her that Islam is the true religion. …

“Local media reports that El Raval is a key target for Muslim supremacist groups who say followers of Islam have a ‘right of return’ to Spain.”

My Comment: Spain was once conquered by Muslims and stayed under their rule for a long time.

According to Islam, the lands that were once Muslim for some time, first of all, are obliged to return to Islam, not to mention the entire world.

Question: What is going to happen to Spain?

Answer: The same thing that will happen to the entire world: Islam will cover the entire world. Of course, there will be big problems with Christianity, especially with Orthodoxy. But they will settle it. This is what the Torah says.

Question: What about us? Will we be able to handle it?

Answer: When they come up against us, they will become ill. But first they will conquer Europe.

When Will Terrorism Come To An End?

Laitman_408Question: Recently, IDF soldiers recently killed the military commander in the Gaza Strip. Consequently, the Palestinians are threatening to retaliate with acts of terror saying that they will not leave us alone. How long can this go on?

Answer: This will continue until the nation of Israel begins to fulfill its historical mission.

We have the method of correction for all of humanity and our role is to bring it to the best and highest state, but we are not fulfilling it and so we invoke all these negative forces of nature.

Question: Are you promising that all this will stop, that our enemies will disappear and turn into our friends, if we begin to fulfill our mission?

Answer: That’s the only way. What is more, everyone will help us. Hamas and its military commanders will come and say: “Tell us what we should do.”

Theresa May, Anti-Semitism, and Europe

laitman_426 In the News (YNet News): “LONDON – British Prime Minister Theresa May delivered a staunchly pro-Israel speech Monday during which she declared her government’s unwavering support for Israel, proclaimed her unequivocal opposition to boycotts and reiterated her commitment to expunging anti-Semitism and Holocaust denial from British society.”

Answer: I have no illusions about Theresa May and the British, both in the past and in the present. They burned Jews in their synagogues. I’ve seen all these places.

We must accept the fact that nature affects everyone: by their anti-Semitism, they affect us because we are “stiff-necked people,” that is, stubborn and unwilling to correct ourselves.

For Theresa May, it is only a political move in order to relate numerous problems to Europe. She says: “We support Israel, we are against all polls,” in order to counter Europe, which voted for anti-Israel UN proposals.

So, there is nothing new here, it’s pure politics. The British are widely known as good politicians. But internally, they have not changed, of course. Moreover, they are unable to change. They can be changed only by the people of Israel if it begins to fulfill its historical mission.

Blessings For Great Victory Day!

laitman_539Dear Friends,

The great holiday of May 9 is a special date for us. This is the day of the great victory over the most evil forces in the history of humanity. The same forces that wanted to enslave the world tried to accommodate their religion to the policies that were introduced by them. A terrible darkness enveloped Europe and didn’t let any one of the peoples live.

We must not forget it. We must celebrate the day of victory every year. It is not important if it is celebrated in different nations at different times as the date of freedom for every nation from slavery. May 9 is a big holiday for us. We hope that we understand what the evil forces celebrate in our world, how the people of Israel exactly can limit and isolate them from humanity and make a happy, secure, and safe future. This depends only on us. So for us May 9 is not just the day of the end of a great and terrible war, but also a reminder that it is up to us to prevent future wars. And this is in our power, the wisdom of Kabbalah makes this possible for us. It is only up to us to learn the method and to realize it in life.

I wish for all of you a good mood, success and happiness! Together with this, don’t forget that today we are facing the same problems that also existed many years ago and it is up to us to solve them quickly. All this begins from tomorrow but for today, I bless everyone on the great May 9 holiday!

North Korea’s Nuclear Power

Laitman_200_02Comment: North Korea continues to increase its nuclear power. Around it, like sharks, American cruisers begin to move. South Korea is concerned about the events there. The entire world gradually starts to tremble, believing that a real nuclear war could be started there.

My Response: It is quite possible. The fact is that the young man that is now in power in North Korea never was at war and didn’t serve in the army, yet he is a commander-in-chief. So what can be done?

Comment: Nevertheless, they managed to stay independent and still remain in their communist miracle.

My Response: On the one hand, they lead a meager life, but on the other hand, they have a certain internal fulfillment in comparison to the rest of today’s world.

Comment: In principle, North Korea is characterized by purely communistic aspiration to equality, to the fact that everyone is working.

My Response: Such equality connects people, gives them inner fulfillment. If the next regime doesn’t supply this, then, of course, they won’t have this fulfillment. Freedom devastates a person.

It would be good to add Kabbalistic principles to what they are trying to build. The Kabbalistic principle is an equal distribution of the gross domestic product and practically no army, meaning just enough to protect the country, but not to be aggressive. Then, ten percent of the funds they spend on the army will be enough for them and they could become a beautiful developing country.

The fact is that the North Korean leader needs to remain in power, and so he acts this way.

Basic Income For Everyone

Laitman_419In the News (Independent): “French presidential candidates have backed a plan to introduce a universal basic income of €750 (£655) a month, in what they described as a bid to combat the threat of robots taking over three million jobs.

“Two of the seven candidates for the French Socialist Party leadership have proposed the measure, which would see every French citizen over 18 receive the monthly pay-out, regardless of their employment status.”

My Comment: It is impossible to introduce a basic income in one country when it is connected with the rest of the nations of the European Union. What would millions of Italians, Spaniards, Greeks, and all the others say? How would people from neighboring nations relate to their governments if France introduced a basic income for all?

Question: And if the European Union were to break up, would they be able to introduce a law like this?

Answer: In this case, yes. Otherwise the possibility of influencing each other cannot be ruled out. “I don’t want you to introduce a basic income because I am not in a position to do so. So, I will stick a spoke in your wheel.”

Question: And what about a person who would begin to receive a basic income?

Answer: What would happen is natural deterioration. If we don’t oblige a person to do anything, then total deterioration would appear because our nature is egoistic. The ego aspires to a state of tranquility or a direct uniform movement like all of nature. That is all, no superfluous and new movements.

And this would be a state of deterioration for the nation. A nation would not be able to do anything if it doesn’t obligate people to come out of their “lairs” and participate in serious events that develop and move them forward. Therefore, they must introduce integral upbringing and education and various social activities. Moreover, they must be mandatory. If not, then nothing will be left of humanity. It would slide back to the level of the beast by giving people the possibility of sitting in their dens and looking from there into the light with empty eyes.

Question: So is it necessary to introduce a basic income or not?

Answer: It is possible to introduce it only on condition that we employ people. First of all, it is necessary to introduce a system that would be seriously involved with the education of people and would obligate them. Conditions must be set for receiving a basic income: if a person studies and is engaged in a particular framework in which he works on himself to build a new future, a new nation, a new society, then he deserves a basic income. The physical work could be done by robots.

Then everything will start to flourish. As a result of education and upbringing, people’s needs will be reduced to a minimum, because there will be no earnings as such. Gradually, the base income will become mandatory. In principle, only this will remain because in the next ten years all the workplaces will be occupied by robots. People will no longer need to chase new excesses because everyone will have a certain normal income. Perhaps they will receive it not in money, but in the form of goods, food, clothing, free use of electricity, energy resources, and so on. That is, everything will be more or less reduced to non-cash settlement.

In general, this is a movement toward communism. Everyone will have a basic income and people will start working on building a free, egalitarian, and united society. This would be the work of people. Only a small part would be engaged with the development and construction of robots and their programming.

Robots are becoming commonplace today. Even though they look the same externally, they will be programmed differently, some will weld, others will glue, others will assemble, these will fasten, and so on. I have seen entire factories that were built like this. It was very beautiful!

The Terrorist Attack In England

Laitman_155Question: Recently, there was a serious terrorist attack in England, which scared almost everyone in London and all over England. Khalid Masud, who was born in England and seems to be an Englishman, committed the attack. He killed three and wounded a lot of people.

Perhaps because of this, Britain has suddenly changed its attitude toward Israel for the better?

Answer: Nothing will change the attitude to Israel! Hatred remains hatred. Externally, it can manifest itself more or less, but it is the law of nature, and therefore, cannot be changed.

Comment: But this terrorist was born there, he practically became English…

Answer: Even if he converted to Christianity, it wouldn’t matter. His nature with respect to Jews remained purely hateful, anti-Semitic.

Comment: But in principle, he didn’t kill Jews. He killed the citizens of the country…

Answer: Of course. Because Islam must conquer the entire world and repaint it green.

The Day Of Good Deeds

laitman_547_04Question: The day of the unity of the Jews is celebrated in Israel and it is called the Day of Good Deeds. How do you relate to it?

Answer: If we overcome ourselves in order to show off only one day a year, as if we are doing good to others, it will not lead to anything good and can even make things worse.

We must understand and realize how egoistic we are and to what degree we have to change ourselves. This is the reason there is a method of correction, of re-educating ourselves. I am ready to offer it and to show everyone the ancient method that that we have had since the days of Abraham.

I truly hope that the Jews will listen to it, that they will unite and will be a role model for the whole world, and thus, the whole world will become peaceful.

Unconditional Basic Income For Everyone

laitman_426In the News (Independent): “MEPs [Members of European Parliament] have warned European countries must ‘seriously’ consider introducing a general basic income to prepare for wide scale unemployment that could come as a result of robots taking over manual jobs.

“A draft report, tabled by a socialist MEP Mady Delvaux-Stehres, warns preparations must be made for what it describes as the ‘technological revolution’ currently taking place, including provisions for the ‘possible effects on the labour market of robotics’.

“The report, which passed by 17 votes to two and will be put in front of the entire European Parliament in February, urges member states to consider a general basic income in preparation for robots taking over people’s jobs. …

“In an interview, Ms Delvaux-Stehres said such a consideration was important to ensure that even if growing unemployment rises due to the technological revolution, people can still ‘have a decent life’”.

My Comment: According to Baal HaSulam, in his book The Last Generation, every individual in society will receive in the future, by agreement, everything that is required for his existence and will work according to the needs of the society. He will not aspire to receive beyond his necessity.

The society will gradually advance toward this situation through educating itself. The introduction of a system of unconditional basic income without the education of society to become like a single body will not bring the desired result and will only produce new flaws and defects.
