Recipient: The council of Rechovot
Body: Mr. Y. G. showed me the council’s response to him, that you are unwilling to adjudicate in beit din with an individual until he first pays the amount that the municipality has demanded of him. I am hereby obligated to inform you, distinguished people, that according to Torah financial law, the right that the community has in such adjudication is to request collateral from the individual litigant before they begin adjudication, if they have doubts about whether he will pay after an award has been ruled. They do not have a right to demand payment of outstanding claims [prior to adjudication].
I hope that you will not allow any break from the standards that are required for adjudication and that you will carry out the matter according to the rules. I want to set the time for a hearing as part of the adjudication by this upcoming Shavuot (within 17 days).

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.
