Ruling: [Last time we saw that pl has grounds for severance pay.]
Validity of the firing – the employment contract states that pl can be fired for ineffective work. In the first period of his employment, pl provided exactly what had been hoped for – major expansion of the scope of the midrasha’s operation. Are there now shortcomings that justify firing? We will deal with claims one by one.

2) Pl’s demand for a change of mode of salary as a condition for work – Pl had good reason to want to change his basis of salary due to the change involving the Education Ministry. If pl had quit on these grounds, it would have been considered the equivalent of being fired. However, he did not have a right to demand the change and continue working.
3) Lack of availability – Pl began attending university during the period of his employment, and this made him insufficiently available. According to def’s secretary’s testimony, that caused problems, including that pl would call her at home, to which she objected. Even pl’s witness agreed that during major parts of the day, pl was unavailable.
4) Pl interfered with the attempt to be recognized by the Education Ministry – this was not sufficiently proven. We note that they received recognition even though it made things harder for pl.
Conclusion: Tension and difficulty in joint work arose, largely due to the change that occurred. Even if pl were not to blame for the deterioration, def still has the right to move on. Pl’s claim that he was fired to deprive him of his share in upcoming large revenues, while possibly a factor, was not proven.
We will continue next time with other elements of the dispute.

Re'e NEVER EXTREME EXCEPT ISRAEL
Parshat Re'eh
Judaism is against extremism, so how can we understand the seemingly extreme statements found in our sages in favor of living in the Land of Israel and against living in Chutz laAretz? The article deals with the seeming contradiction between the strength of Free-Will and the strength of being influenced by our surroundings.

Ekev DANCE FOR ISRAEL- FOR YOUR BENEFIT
Parshat Eikev
Description: The 7 Haftarot we read after Tisha B'Av ("Shiva D'Nichemta") surely get us excited that they're coming TRUE, and awaken us to yearn, dance & join the return to Zion! The short article also deals with the problems and solutions facing the American Jewish community as discussed at a recent panel, as well as the question why Jews come from America to Israel to help when we face problems, but Israelis don't come to aid Jews in America when they face anti-Semitism.
