Israel is heading to the polls and you're scratching your head. Bibi? Lapid? Bennett? Eisenkot? Rabbi Dov Ber Cohen won't tell you who to vote for but he will tell you exactly what to look for.

Daily prayers in Judaism are very set and circumscribed. How do you make prayer more meaningful if it becomes rote and rushed, and, if you don’t speak Hebrew, you don’t understand what you are saying?

The next time you have a quiet moment, just talk to the Creator as if talking to your best friend. In your own words and your own language.
There are also places within the set prayers where one can insert individual matters; please check that with a Rabbi.

What would you have done if thousands of Mexicans would pull down the fence and swarm into Texas Killing, Raping, torturing! Even burning babies in a micro wave oven !!? And then kidnapping hundreds of hkstages? Woulfd you just sit back and do nothing? Where is your sense of basic moral values?!
