In honor of the yom neshama (anniversary of the passing on) of Rahel Imenu just passed; also for the yom neshama of my uncle, Sam ben Nazira uMoshe, which was 20 Heshvan.
***
The videos below, by the twin Ravs Shimon and Mendel Kessin, respectively, have been stewing around in my neshama for the last couple of weeks, and I thought I'd share a few of my thoughts from them.
Rahel Imenu (daughter of Lavan, who was Rivka's brother and Avraham and Sarah's great-nephew) played a large part in Jewish survival by doing several things related to family issues:
giving up her position as Yaacov Avinu's only wife, which she would have been if she hadn't given her sister Leah the secret codes and arranged for her go first.
giving up her place in the grave beside her husband, in Hevron, and being buried on the side of a road going out of Eretz Yisrael, so that she could cry for her descendants when they were forced out, and help them in times of trouble, even in our times. We still go to her grave during wartime, and Israeli soldiers have even seen and been helped by her. Here's another story on that. And yet another.
by doing all the above, she enabled us to survive galuth. She even passed on this trait to special people in her line of descent, like Esther haMalkah, who gave up her position among the Jewish People in Persia and the other 126 countries in the Persian empire in order to save them from Haman the Agagite (descended from Amalek).
and, by the way, we wouldn't have Yosef haTzaddik, the ancestor of Mashiah ben Yosef, without his mother, Rahel.
So what would hurt if we prayed for the revelation of Mashiah ben Yosef ben Rahel and Mashiah ben David ben Leah? Since we're praying for living people here, we usually identify them by their mother's name. Sephardim often identify passed-on people by their mother's name also.

I'm sure many people (otherwise known, to some, as potential or actual experimental subjects) are concerned about the "vaccine" shots. For people who are nevertheless into getting the experimental study intervention(1), early last week I encountered a very good suggestion made by a retired British nurse with 30 years' experience who has taught quite a few nurses how to give shots, in a video from April 2021.
His name is Dr. John Campbell, from the United Kingdom, and his 'Dr.' is a PhD in open learning resources for nurses. So, he's been in nursing and health education for quite some time. A lot of people follow his (as far as I can tell from what I've seen so far) sensible talking points to take back to their medical teams/physicians.
I derived a major tip I got from the two videos at the end of this section — no one else, from what I can tell, which might be quite limited, has mentioned it — it's something Dr. Campbell wishes would be brought back as standard procedure.
The following, while not directly quoted, is from his material at the end of this section of the post (sections are indicated by *** at the end).
Before you get injected, ask the nurse who is going to give you the shot to aspirate the needle before putting the vial contents in.
Aspiration in Hebrew is aspirátziaאספירציה.
If the nurse refuses to aspirate the needle for you, or doesn't know how to do it, you have every right to walk out without taking the shot. It's a Nuremberg Code law and you don't have to consent obey.
Again, if this news perturbs you, or even if it doesn't, please watch the two videos at the end of this section of the post, and find out why.
As with anything involving the heart, myocarditis and pericarditis are not as light a matter as they're made out to be!
Dr. Campbell mostly refers to the J&J and AZ products, since they are being used in his country, England. I highly suspect that Israeli nurses haven't been aspirating their needles either, considering the number of myocarditis and pericarditis reactions we've had here; according to what he says, the same would apply to the Pfizer product and, for that matter, any vaccine. The good doctor thinks that not aspirating the needle before injecting is the reason for all the myocarditis and pericarditis adverse reactions from the experimental study intervention all over the
world.
Also, having this procedure done before injecting you doesn't guarantee that you won't have any adverse reactions. But it will mitigate them by taking out the circulatory system- and heart-related complications that have a lot of us very well frightened for ourselves, our spouses and especially our children.
We do want them to have a life, right?
He is pro-vaccine, nevertheless he has reservations about the way the
Covid-19 vaccination effort is being carried out. In the two videos
below, he makes it clear why the aspiration procedure MUST be renewed
and followed for intramuscular shots such as vaccines, to avoid certain
nasty problems, which we've already discussed.
This is not an anti-vaccination position. It is a matter of common decency, or as we like to call it here in Israel, derekh eretz. More precisely, it is a matter of performing the procedure correctly. If that cannot be accommodated, then we need to walk away.
And there is more reason to walk away anyway - see the rest of the post.
Dr. Campbell explains all this very well, and more professionally than I ever could...

More recent news...
The videos above would be the end of today's post, if the way people were given vaccines were the only major problem we have. However, America's Frontline Doctors (AFLD) has got ahold of a letter and video from an independent group of Israeli physicians, lawyers, scientists and researchers called the Professional Ethics Front (החזית המקצועית לאתיקה). Dr. Yaffa Shir Raz, Haifa and Reichman Universities and IDC Hertzliyah International School's Health and Risk Communication lecturer, is interviewed by Mordechai Sones (usually for Arutz -7; but in this case, it seems he's doing this on his own) concerning the group's report to the US FDA expressing severe concerns about the COVID-19 vaccine reporting system here. Both of these items explain how we really, really weren't prepared to be the world's laboratory — to say the least.
The topics the letter deals with are:
Lack of a public and transparent adverse events reporting system
Severe impairments in healthcare professionals' adverse events reporting system
Data distortion
Legal and ethical violations in data collection processes
More on the PEF on Facebook. Please feel free to let me know how you like the organization and its site, since I don't have FB. So far, the posts I was able to see are in English; but there might be Hebrew also (and other languages?).

Dr. Shir Raz wrote an article last year that was taken down from
Ynet about Israel's Ministry of Health's decisions on the virus as a
cause of death. The following articles (two of them featuring Dr. Shir Raz, regarding her article) on Arutz-7 were written by
Mordechai Sones in 2020. I have placed them in reverse publish date order:
Considering #BeagleGate - how do we continue to trust the American doctor in charge of beating COVID-19??? A sampling of articles below, plus a search link to more.
I wish my readers excellent and fearless decision-making as well as excellent health.
Something positive from my WhatsApp feed: Authorities here are refunding closure-related fines handed out unlawfully last year! Details for Israelis who still haven't collected what is due them.
(1) study intervention - I didn't make this up. I got it out of this Pfizer document.
