ACTIVISTS FROM THE TEMPLE INSTITUTE were pictured in Jerusalem last week apparently practicing the ritual of the red heifer to herald construction of the Third Temple. However, the image shared on social media (which was taken in the City of David, not the Mount of Olives as Derek incorrectly said) showed the rabbis with appears to be a cardboard standup of a bovid that is neither fully red nor a heifer. It’s a steer (a bull that’s been neutered). We discuss the situation in Israel, where tensions are high as Israelis await Iran’s expected military response to the killing of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh on July 31. Some Western intelligence analysts believe it will come on the 9th of Av, which begins at sundown Monday, a date that marks the anniversaries of the destruction of Solomon’s Temple in 586 BC and the Second Temple in 70 AD. There are reports that Iran’s new president Masoud Pezeshkian is trying to prevent an all-out war with Israel. We pray the reports are true and that he succeeds. Also: US agrees to sell offensive weapons to Saudi Arabia; wave of bank closures in US; and new research shows that cows can be “mixing vessels” for H5N1 avian flu, allowing for transmission to humans. —————— Follow us!
