Parashat Korah: An Argument for the Sake of Heaven
The Wall Street Journal has an article titled Obama Says Police Killings of Two Black Men Should Trouble All Americans.
Embedded in the article is a video in which President Obama opines, "This is an American issue that we should all care about. All fair minded people should be concerned."
Waiting for the President to say the same thing about the cops that were shot in and killed in Dallas.

Hu Haya Omer
Hillary Clinton vs. James Comey: Email Scandal Supercut
The video above compares what Hillary Clinton said with what James Comey said. Yesterday I heard someone speaking about Pirkei Avot and she asked the question, "Why does it say "Hu Haya Omer" as opposed to "Hu Amar"? Below are two explanations.
Whenever a statement in Pirke’ Avos is introduced with the words, “He used to say”-“Hu Haya Omer” the Rav Bartenura, explains it to mean that he said it frequently and repeatedly... Another explanation can be gleaned from the opposite of the following bizarre example:
A young doctor gave an amazingly clear presentation about the dangers associated with cigarette smoking. Everyone left the auditorium so inspired, informed, and impressed that it would be hard to imagine that anyone who witnessed the talk could ever touch one of those tobacco sticks. Yet the very next day that same doctor was spotted in the street dragging shamelessly on a cigarette. When approached and reproached with both shock and dismay he responded in a cavalier fashion... So said this doctor, “What do you want from me? That was a lecture!”
Whenever the Mishne says, “Hu Haya Omer-He used to say” it may be read more literally, “He was what he spoke!”

The summer (the period of Tamuz) is the “holiday” of the eyes.

A NYT article describes Boris Becker's coaching of top ranked Novak Djokovic.
Becker, a father of four children, feels the timing was right.
“I think I’m a much better coach now at 48 than I would have been at 38, because at 38, it was still a lot about me,” Becker said. “Now, the kids have grown older, so you become a little more mature, a little more about everybody else than you.

Yitzchik Adlertien writes about the petira of rabbi Maurice Lamm.
He understood what fewer and fewer of us today understand: HKBH expects us to give up parts of our individual comfort for the good of the tzibbur.

It takes team players to build a successful company — just ask Facebook.
...“Successful candidates should clearly demonstrate that their priorities are company, team, and self — in that order,” Parikh continued. “This makes it more likely that they’ll put the company’s mission above their individual interests and that they’ll set the proper example for others.” http://www.theblaze.com/stories/2016/07/01/the-6-sneaky-questions-facebook-uses-to-weed-out-whiners-and-selfish-job-candidates/

The environment of fear
Parshas Shelach - A Divine Track Record
Parshas Shelach - For The Love of Our Land
Continuing violence, terrorism and incitement, settlement expansion, and the Palestinian Authority’s lack of control of Gaza are hurting the Middle East peace process, the United Nations envoy today said summarizing the first ever report by the diplomatic Quartet – comprising the United Nations, Russia, the United States and the European Union – to the Security Council.
“The main objective of this report is not about assigning blame,” Nickolay Mladenov, Special Coordinator for the Middle East Peace Process, told the 15-member council.
...The Security Council met amid fresh violence in the region. Just a few hours earlier, a 13-year-old girl was stabbed to death by a Palestinian at her home in West Bank. Earlier in the month, four Israelis died in an attack in Tel Aviv, and a Palestinian teenager was killed by Israeli Security Forces on a highway.
“All three incidents clearly illustrate the environment of fear in which both Palestinians and Israelis have lived for generations,” Mr. Mladenov said.
http://www.un.org/apps/news/story.asp?NewsID=54370#.V3YbD_mLTIV
This morning the JPost reported Female terrorist shot, killed following thwarted terror attack in Hebron.
Perhaps this incident can be added to the Quartet's report to illustrate the Palestinians living in fear of being shot.
Obama Administration Wants to Keep Clinton Foundation Emails Hidden Until Late 2018
This past week, the President tweeted, "After more than 100 days, the Supreme Court still needs its 9th judge, but the Senate GOP refuses to do its job and consider Judge Garland."
If it takes roughly 800 days to produce email correspondence, should it not take longer to vet a Supreme Court nominee?
There was ANOTHER nightclub shooting and the media isn’t telling you about it. HERE’S WHY
