Erasing Generous Donors

The hostile, anti-Jewish fishwrap HaAretz demands in its editorial to erase the name of  Steinhardt in the Israel Museum and other public buildings. The billionaire was entered into HaAretz's black list because he bought some non-white people's objects and donated them to the Museum. HaAretz copies every American leftist craziness a year later. Since we have no slaveowners here, the fishwrap makes an effort to find something remotely reproachable and tries to demonstrate that they too are woke and progressive. They are also against the police. Yesterday the Negev Bedouins rioted against forestation projects - they are definitely against planting trees in the Negev desert. They fight to leave the desert - a desert for their goats. Not a word on the violent riot in HaAretz, only a pic of a policeman overpowering a demonstrator with a judo take and forcing him to "kiss" the asphalt. The pic illustrates the Tu Be Svat - the annual celebration of the trees in Judaism - when schools go out to the desert to plant trees. 

Fulfilling Patriarch Duties

My daughter the architect is obsessed with a second, larger home in Hod Hasharon. It is prohibitively expensive, but I promised to help. I love my daughters. I'll sell some stock. The prices are very good and rising. The American inflation reached 7% p.a. so investing in real estate is a reasonable option. Anyway, I expect to die (not this year) of a heart attack and will take nothing with me. Not that I'll be going anywhere. There is no afterlife in Judaism. 

Fourth Vaccination

 

Yesterday I got the 4th vax against the COVID-19 and I'm feeling somewhat depressed/lacking enthusiasm for starting to work. My daughter and husband bought an apartment for a monstrous amount of money, but prices in "central" Israel have increased to unheard-of levels. Higher than anywhere on this planet, and I am not exaggerating. More expensive than Manhattan Central Park. I think the last May riots in mixed towns like Acco, Ramle, Lod (pic) frightened the Jews and they will pay any price to live physically as far as possible from Arabs. The Arabs are worse in many senses than American Blacks, because they are more violent and ideologically hostile. Arabs are ready to die if that hurts Jews. Blacks are not against America, but Arabs hate the State and the Jews. Only the Orthodox save us from becoming a minority.  

Are we entering a bear market?

 

Yahoo Finance, my favorite market commenter, says so. I am trying to understand the graph but it looks to me that NASDAQ is in a prolonged bullish movement with a lot of inertia. NASDAQ has made lots of millionaires lately and also has benefited small fish like me. I am still optimistic and buying. 

[China Lecture Series] 32강 중국의 부상과 한미관계의 미래 : 존 미어샤이머 (John J. Mearshei...

Mearsheimer repeats his thesis but this time he is very explicit. Among other things, he explains how England tried to destroy early America, and why Cuba was not incorporated into the United States (they did not want another semi-African population) and so. He most logically explains why WWIII is unavoidable. I am still frightened.

Hoarding ICL stock

The West has been seriously offended by Lukashenka's smuggling of "refugees" into the EU and is taking action. The American Treasury uses Bielokali to send a message to Lukashenka, and which is good news for ICL's share price. Quote section of the Treasury's "shaming" aka ultimatum: 

 INCREASED SANCTIONS ON THE POTASH SECTOR OF THE BELARUS ECONOMY

OFAC is designating additional entities to limit the financial benefits that the Lukashenka regime derives from potash exports. These designations follow OFAC’s August 9, 2021 designation of the major potash entity in Belarus, the Belarusian SOE Belaruskali OAO.

...

As part of the designation of Slavkali, OFAC is identifying a luxury helicopter, EW-001PH, as property in which Slavkali has an interest. Painted in the colors of the Belarusian flag with the state seal emblazoned on the seats, EW-001PH was purchased by and is owned by Slavkali and has been used to ferry Lukashenka between his suburban residence and Minsk.
