A Complicated Pesach
By ORLY DREMAN We marked a Leil Seder but there was no happiness.
We left an empty chair with a yellow ribbon and I cried as I read the prayer for the hostages- that G-D should have mercy on the few who are still alive and to those who are not among the living that they should at least have the right to be buried in their land.
How can we talk about the holiday of freedom, about redemption and being free? Our hearts ache. Two hundred days with no freedom. Even Hollywood could not come up with a more terrifying script. Our hearts are embedded in Gaza.
Every Israeli recognizes the photos and the names of the hostages. Everyone is praying and expecting them to return. Their families want to embrace them and we want to see them back home. Soldiers who come back from reserves cry that they have not succeeded in returning them. Roommates of students who were kidnapped still keep their rooms for them. Birthday presents are kept for them, their friends keep their favorite university library chair awaiting their return. Children draw pictures for their fathers who are held in captivity.
The adult hostages who returned half a year ago describe how they were in the tunnels suffocating with no air while the terrorists were residing above them in their homes and the hostages were begging for oxygen. Once in three days they got a little water with half a dry pita. Today, those who returned have not recovered, they are thankful for every breath they inhale and are so grateful for every glass of water and food. The children who were released and initially came back happy – with time have to process what has happened. Some have lost family members, some still have relatives in Gaza. They lost friends, they lost their homes and are still residing in hotels in the center of the country- whole families in a twenty square meter room.
In the past the psychologists took care of teenagers who were anxious and depressed. Now however, they have to take care of children as young as eight year olds. People feel they have lost control of their lives. Everything we viewed as “safe” has been shattered. Millions of Israelis are or will be in need of psychological treatment and mental health services will require more psychologists. The pressure and the loss affects all parts of society and we still do not know if the worst is behind us. Many families do not want to return to the south or to the north when the time will come and it is possible the damages are irreversible. Hizballah in the north is much stronger and better equipped than Hamas. The country has shrunk towards the center. We as a nation are used to short, victorious wars, but we have been fighting on several fronts for seven months.
In three weeks we will mark Independence Day. On this day we have the ceremony of the “Israeli Prize”. This year one of the prizes goes to the Director of the National Pathologic Institute- for civil bravery. At the beginning of October the institute was swamped with 1500 body bags. They were unidentifiable. Nowhere in the world were there so many bodies that had to be identified and so quickly. There was never a catastrophic event of that magnitude without a list of people who were there.
At the Twin Towers 2,700 people died, but only 1,680 were identified. In Israel only 11 people are still unaccounted for. Bodies and body parts were burned, tortured, beheaded and often only remnants of body parts were left -scenes reminiscent of Auschwitz. Just last week a family found out their son was buried beheaded. The authorities did not want to cause additional grief to the family so they buried him with a head of a doll until the family demanded to open the grave.
The night we were attacked by over 330 missiles from Iran we were very proud of our defense forces, which downed 99 percent of them. This will be remembered and taught for generations to come in military academies. Seventy five percent success is due to the Israeli air force and our protective systems. Israel owes considerable thanks for the remaining 24 percent to the coalition formed by the U.S, England, France and other countries in the region.
That night, our intelligence was great – together with our active military system. We personally witnessed this success through the booms of intercepted missiles while sitting in our shelters. Of course the danger from Iran is a thousand times greater than that transpiring in Gaza. In most countries people would probably stay home for some days to recover, but here we go through dozens of events in a few months but – being a resilient nation, we managed to get back to almost a normal routine very quickly in spite of the traumatic events.
Personally, my grandchildren tell me they are not able to distinguish between the sound of an ambulance siren and that of an air raid siren, so they are afraid they will not know when to run to the shelter. To illustrate how precarious life is in Israel – when we participate in daily activities such as going to a shopping mall, which is not a safe place because it is crowded, we do not stop for ice cream because of the fear of being attacked.
On another level, our political perspective has changed immensely. For example, there is the issue of the orthodox (Haredi) community, who refuse to serve in the army. In the past we could afford to accept their refusal and they were exempt from conscription in order to study Torah. This present, elongated war and the losses demand a large increase in the size of the IDF. The army is offering adjustments to create small Orthodox regiments along the borders where they can keep their order of the day- pray and protect. However, they still refuse to help us with this burden.
Today, our democracy is severely in need of a new leadership which places its citizens and its country before politics. To date, our leaders have been making empty promises to us. They refuse to plan for the future of how Gaza will be governed when the war is over. They promise us “complete victory,” which now we understand is nonsense and the threat is still there. For the government – as long as the war is going on, they think they can avoid new elections, they are only interested in their political survival. We feel like orphans with no responsible adult.
Even though we are hurting today, l believe in our resilience and better days will come.

Staying Safe Online: How to Verify Phone Numbers and Emails in a Digital World
In today’s connected world, communication happens instantly. Whether through phone calls, text messages, or email, we receive information faster than ever before. While this connectivity brings convenience, it also increases exposure to scams, fraud, and misinformation. Communities that value strong social ties, philanthropy, education, and global connection—such as Jewish communities worldwide—are particularly active online, making digital awareness essential.
One practical way to stay safe is by verifying unknown phone numbers and email addresses before responding. Modern lookup tools now make this process quick and accessible.
Why Phone and Email Verification Matters
The Rise of Digital Fraud
Across North America and beyond, online fraud has become more sophisticated. Scam calls may impersonate:
- Charitable organizations
- Financial institutions
- Government agencies
- Community leaders
- Family members in distress
Similarly, phishing emails often appear legitimate at first glance, using familiar names or logos to gain trust.
Before replying, donating, clicking links, or sharing sensitive information, verification can prevent costly mistakes.
Common Scenarios Where Verification Helps
1. Unknown Calls Requesting Donations
Many people are generous and active in charitable giving. Unfortunately, scammers sometimes exploit this generosity. If you receive a call asking for contributions to a cause, verifying the phone number can help confirm legitimacy.
2. Suspicious Emails About Account Access
Emails claiming urgent action is required—such as password resets or banking alerts—are common phishing tactics. Looking up the sender’s email can reveal whether it is associated with known fraud reports.
3. Online Marketplace Transactions
When buying or selling items online, verifying the contact details of the other party reduces the risk of fraud.
4. Reconnecting with Old Contacts
Sometimes you receive a message from someone claiming to be an old friend, colleague, or distant relative. A quick lookup can confirm whether the contact information aligns with public records.
Introducing ClarityCheck
One of the tools designed to simplify this process is ClarityCheck. The platform allows users to search for information associated with phone numbers and email addresses, helping individuals make informed decisions before responding.
What Makes ClarityCheck Useful?
Quick Searches
Users can enter:
- A phone number
- An email address
The system then aggregates publicly available data and digital signals connected to that contact detail.
Easy-to-Understand Results
Rather than overwhelming users with technical data, the platform presents results in a structured format, making it easier to interpret findings.
Privacy-Conscious Approach
The service focuses on organizing publicly accessible information, helping users assess risk without intrusive methods.
How Phone Number Lookup Works
When a phone number is entered into a lookup service, several types of information may be identified:
| Data Category | Possible Insights |
| Carrier Information | Type of line (mobile, landline, VoIP) |
| Geographic Indicators | Area code origin |
| Spam Reports | Previous complaints or flags |
| Digital Footprint | Public listings linked to the number |
This information can help users determine whether a number is likely legitimate or potentially fraudulent.
For example, a donation request from a number flagged repeatedly for spam activity would be a clear warning sign.
How Email Lookup Enhances Security
Email addresses often reveal patterns that help identify risk.
Key Signals in Email Verification
- Domain age and reputation
- Presence in public databases
- Links to known scam reports
- Associated online profiles
For instance, an email claiming to represent a large institution but using a newly created domain may warrant caution.
Verification adds a layer of confidence before you respond.
Community Safety and Digital Responsibility
Strong communities rely on trust. However, trust must be balanced with vigilance in digital spaces.
Protecting Elders and Vulnerable Individuals
Older adults are often targeted by phone and email scams. Sharing tools and knowledge about verification can significantly reduce risk.
Encouraging family members to:
- Verify unknown callers
- Avoid sharing financial details immediately
- Consult trusted relatives before responding
can prevent emotional and financial harm.
Practical Steps Before Responding to Unknown Contacts
Here is a simple checklist:
- Do not click links immediately.
- Avoid sharing personal information.
- Verify the phone number or email address.
- Contact the organization directly using official channels.
- Report suspicious activity when necessary.
Verification tools like ClarityCheck fit naturally into step three of this process.
Benefits Beyond Fraud Prevention
While safety is the primary goal, phone and email lookup services can also offer other advantages.
Reconnecting with Confidence
In globally connected communities with family members across countries, unexpected messages are common. A lookup can confirm whether a contact aligns with publicly available information before continuing the conversation.
Professional Due Diligence
For professionals—whether in law, business, education, or nonprofit leadership—validating contact information before engaging in partnerships or transactions adds credibility and reduces risk.
Supporting Charitable Integrity
Legitimate charitable organizations depend on trust. When individuals verify contacts, it discourages impersonation scams that damage the reputation of authentic nonprofits.
Digital Awareness in 2026 and Beyond
As artificial intelligence tools become more advanced, scam attempts may look increasingly realistic. Voice cloning, AI-generated emails, and automated phishing campaigns are becoming more common.
Verification tools help counteract these threats by:
- Identifying patterns linked to fraudulent activity
- Aggregating public signals into accessible reports
- Providing clarity before emotional decisions are made
Digital literacy is no longer optional—it is part of responsible community engagement.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is it legal to look up phone numbers and emails?
Yes, when using services that rely on publicly available information and comply with data protection regulations.
Can lookup tools guarantee accuracy?
No tool guarantees 100% accuracy. Results should be used as guidance, combined with personal judgment.
Should verification replace common sense?
Absolutely not. It should complement cautious behavior and independent confirmation.
Final Thoughts
Community strength is built on trust, generosity, and connection. In a digital era, protecting those values requires thoughtful use of technology.
Verifying unknown phone numbers and email addresses before responding is a simple but powerful step. Whether preventing fraud, safeguarding charitable giving, or reconnecting with old contacts, tools like ClarityCheck help individuals move forward with greater confidence.
Digital awareness is not about suspicion—it is about clarity.

Methods of Using Blockchain on Gambling Sites: Explained by Robocat Casino
The world of online gambling is changing and chasing new tools to entertain visitors. Players demand more transparency, faster payouts, and complete control over their money, making traditional casinos seem outdated. Modern websites like Robocat Casino utilize blockchain technology, which is the digital foundation for everything from crypto transactions to provably fair games. If you’re unfamiliar with how casinos use blockchain, we’ll cover it below.
What is Blockchain in a Casino?
Blockchain is a system that records data in a way that cannot be altered. The technology operates using a decentralized ledger shared across multiple computers. Every transaction is recorded in the ledger, which is regularly updated and accessible to all participants.
These properties are useful for gambling sites like Robocat Casino. The digital ledger processes every bet and prevents alteration. As a result, every action is transparent, and players have no doubt about the website’s integrity.
All transactions occur on a decentralized ledger, so there is no central authority that could interfere. This ensures complete anonymity. This privacy has led to an increasing number of players choosing to bet at crypto casinos.
How is This Technology Used in Gambling?
There are several ways users might encounter blockchain technology at sites like Robocat Casino.
- Provably fair games. Traditional online casinos have always been criticized for their fairness, as players doubt whether the odds are truly in their favor. Blockchain technology eliminates this uncertainty. Systems with provably fair games use cryptographic algorithms and publicly accessible hashes to control the outcome of each spin or draw. This limits backend manipulation and ensures transparency between the website and the user.
- Greater anonymity and lower KYC (know your customer) requirements. Not all crypto casinos eliminate the KYC process, but many are more lenient than casinos that exclusively accept fiat transactions. Some sites allow you to play with just a wallet address, without the need for identification documents.
- Cryptocurrency deposits and withdrawals. With blockchain technology, you can forget about the five-day wait for funds to appear in your gaming account. When working with cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin or Ethereum, deposits and withdrawals are almost instantaneous. Interacting with cryptocurrency goes beyond speed. It offers low transaction fees and 24/7 global availability.
- Smart contracts. These are self-executing contracts based on the blockchain. In casinos, they can automate everything from loyalty bonuses to jackpot payouts. Such procedures require no human intervention, eliminating the risk of errors.
- Tokenized loyalty systems. Casinos can issue their own tokens as rewards. This is a cryptocurrency that can be sold or spent on the website. This approach creates real economic value for loyalty programs and motivates users to choose the casino.
The evolution of blockchain will lead to an expanded role at Robocat Casino and other gambling websites. Experts expect the use of decentralized applications (dApps) to increase. These operate on blockchain networks, rather than on a single server, and ensure complete decentralization of casinos. The absence of intermediaries or regulatory bodies will provide players with greater transparency.
