Ruling: We have seen that the agreements were binding and that it was def’s doing that pl did not finish the work.
Regarding the question of reducing VAT, there are indeed strong indications from the sides’ joint calculations that at least for the main payment, a 50% reduction in VAT was planned, although in a recording we hear pl say that he is in favor of the government getting its share. However, this concession is irrelevant. When contractors talk about a reduction in VAT, they do not mean that they will pay in place of the customer, but that they will do part of the payment "off the books" so that no one will pay. We refuse to take part in such illegal actions. Therefore, def will pay VAT, and pl will provide receipts for the full amount received.

Regarding pl’s claim of 2,000 NIS a day for delay in the work, beit din rejects that claim. The contract gives a projected amount of work time for pl to finish the time. Def did not obligate herself to not take any breaks, especially a reasonable one like to bring in a designer due to the sides’ difficulty in planning jointly. In a discussion that was recorded, there was no hint of monetary demand for the stoppage (just general frustration). There are also no indications that pl had to pay workers or subcontractors for the delay (lack of predictability is a hallmark of construction work).
In total, def must pay pl 37,364 NIS including VAT due to incomplete payment.

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.
