      "Innocent People Should Never Talk To The Police"

      by Tamar Yonah

      As nations of the world are becoming more and more like a police state, I thought it would be helpful to direct you to two videos that a listener of mine sent me,  BEFORE it might be censored or removed from the internet.  If you can download these videos, I suggest you do so. 

      Hypothetical situation:  Police officer Jones makes an arrest.  He fills out his paperwork and it goes into a file.  At the end of the year, he wants to show his superiors that out of the 500 arrests he made that year, all or most of the 500 of them were convicted.  If he makes more arrests than were convicted, that would look bad on his record now, wouldn't it?  He is motivated to nail you, and he has almost unlimited resources to do so.

      Without mentioning names, there was a pamphlet that was sent out over the internet telling Israelis what their rights are if they are arrested and questioned by the Israeli security services.  The pamphlet also revealed many of the tricks detectives and security forces use to help get a guilty verdict on a person they have arrested.  It was fascinating to say the least, and very educational. That pamphlet seems to be removed from the internet.

      The tricks, lies and intimidation that cops use, work.  It takes a very strong person to resist the urge to talk.  But you musn't.  I know stories that show proof of this, where innocent people benefited from remaining silent. But that is for another blog …perhaps.

      The video below is of Criminal Defense Attorney and Prof. James Duane.  He explains (in a very entertaining way) why innocent people should never talk to the police.  He speaks fast, so listen closely and listen to it all.  The lecture is about 27 minutes long but worth every minute.  After Prof. Duane speaks, he is followed by officer George Bruch from the Virginia Beach police department.   Bruch has been an investigator (and interrogator) for approx. 28 years, he concurs with the advice that innocent people should never talk to the police.

      Medical Miracles: Is this the Messianic Age?

      by Tamar Yonah

      I know, I know, because I am suffering, I am consumed with medical cures.  I promise I won't be overloading you with blogs on health.  But these are a few videos I have saved up and thought they were appropriate for me to show now.

      When I see things that are astonishing, I think either the thing is bunk, a hoax, or that it really is something amazing and appears now in our time as we approach the days of Moshiach (the Messianic age).

      You may agree or disagree with some of these medical clips below, but they are worth watching.  They deserve discussion and more research.  I hope this helps someone you know who may be suffering.

      For how this works, see the second BBC report on what they use to make 'pixie dust' that helped this man's finger grow back.

      Heart problems? Collapsed veins? Need bypass? Watch this from NBC.

      And by now, you may be saying, "C'mon, Tamar.  This is all bunk. You may be right.  But as they say,,, "Desperate people do desperate things!!"  (wink)  ...Excuse me, I have to go and bang my head and face now.

      Getting BACK My Life

      by Tamar Yonah

      Many of you have been sending me emails and leaving me well wishes on my blog and I want to thank you all.  For those who don't know, I have been diagnosed and suffering from a herniated disc and sciatica which has been extremely painful and humbling.  I have been pretty much out of commission lying on the floor, resting my back, and trying to do some of exercises suggested by you.  I greatly appreciate your talk backs that you posted in order to help me.

      I have written in previous notes to you that I don't care for doctors, tests, or medicines.  I preferred always to go the more natural way, even if that meant suffering.  You see, I am tough.  I went through 5 births without anything, scoffing at women who took pain medication, laughing gas or epidurals. I relied on my toughness.  Well, I hang my head down in shame.  -sigh-  I have been humbled. 

      This pain I have suffered has been so excruciating, that I did the unthinkable…  I took pills. ARGH! –grin-   Anyone who knows me, knows that if Tamar takes an aspirin, she must be in incredible pain. But alas, I was beat. Perhaps it is my age, perhaps it was gaining weight since the Pesach Holiday, perhaps it was sitting at the computer for hours, or perhaps it was the stress of losing my dear mother-in-law, perhaps it was all of the above together which brought this on.

      All I know is that I have succumbed to the pain and broke.  I am taking a prescription back medicine which really works!  I am also taking Advil gel pills which are great, AND have been sent for 8 weeks of physical therapy.  Since the start of physical therapy and lots of rest and less stress (among them writing blogs and preparing radio shows) I have seen a lot of improvement.  I am down to taking pain killers from 3 to 2 times a day, and am able to do work now.  I admit it. I am getting to be a fan of conventional medicine.

      One of my readers sent me this video, and I thought I would share it with you all since many of you wrote me privately that you too suffered, or had a family member who suffered with their backs going out and/or sciatica.  After watching this clip, let me know if you think it is all in my head.  I am having my girlfriend pick me up the book who is going to the States.

      Thanks for letting me kvetch.  It is one of my joys in life, to kvetch.  Nothing like kvetching when one is in pain.  –grin-

      Hmmmm... I just want my life BACK.  Is this all in my head?

      The Left: Bad Predictors of the Future

      by Tamar Yonah

      The 'Right' has been right.  Everything they predicted that would happen after the Left pushed through their 'Peace' objectives has been a disaster.  Just view these two videos (ain't hindsight great?) and see how these appeaser's predictions have panned out.

      Rabin says that there won't be katyusha rockets/missiles on Israel if we pull out of Gaza.  By the way, the song that is played in the video is called, "Hevainu Shalom Alechem" -"We Bring You Peace"

      Ehud Olmert debates Rabbi Meir Kahane and tells him there is no worry about the growing Arab population in Israel.  Today, Olmert himself claims that Jerusalem must be divided because the Arab population is growing too large adn is a threat to Israel's identity. 

      The Left: Bad Predictors of the Future.  I wouldn't buy a used car from these guys.
