L'Chaim - To Life S11 E1 (04-09-2024) with Rabbi Dr Laibl Wolf and Gareth NarunskyThe program is replayed Fridays between 2PM and 3PM on Melbourne’s 3ZZZ 92.3FM
MEA CULPA
We have to make a correction, and Mea Culpa, for what appears now to be Maurice Klein reading out fake news as last week’s Mythbuster, what was meant to be a suicide letter by a young man at the Nova Festival October 7, who witnessed the rape and killing of a woman and later took his own life due to suffering survivor guilt. That is not what we do here on L'Chaim - To Life. During the week, this has been widely reported in the media, including the Jewish Chronicle, to be fake, fake, fake news emanating from social media. We definitely do not want to be a party to disseminating “bullshizen”, but we weren't the only ones who fell for it, which included the German Ambassador to Israel. So we have removed the separate podcast and edited it out of the full program podcast, and hopefully lesson learned: make sure everything is genuine and fact-checked before it goes to air.

Title: Rabbi Dr Laibl Wolf – Jewish people need to know who they are; why they are (*from 13:24 mins)
Description: Maurice Klein speaks with Rabbi Dr Laibl Wolf, founder and Dean at the Spiritgrow-Josef Kryss Holistic Centre, who recently penned an oped expressing his concerns that as a community and individuals we are going overboard with how sacred and afraid we are. Can you imagine the absolute joy the enemy experiences when another Jew says "I am afraid". Rabbi Laibl tells us to stop displaying fear! We have a long history; it's about time we learned how to be defiant and resilient, walking the talk and staring down the haters, walking tall and proud of our Jewish identity and connection. Take initiatives, think creatively, and respond deliberately and meaningfully. Above all know who you are as a Jew! For more information about Spiritgrow go to www.spiritgrowjosefkrysscenter.org.

Title: Israel At War Mythbuster – Sinwar's Reign to End Soon? (*from 39:23 mins)
Description: In the war-torn Gaza Strip, a high-stakes manhunt is underway for Yahya Sinwar, the elusive leader of Hamas. Despite advanced technology and international intelligence efforts, Sinwar has managed to evade capture, leaving behind a trail of mystery and intrigue. With his rare communications and strategic silence, the hunt for Sinwar has become a complex and challenging pursuit. As the search continues, the collaboration between Israel and the United States has intensified, with both nations determined to capture the man believed to have masterminded the deadly October 7 attacks. With Sinwar's influence on Hamas's military operations and his critical role in cease-fire negotiations, his capture could have a profound impact on the ongoing conflict.
