What happens When 1M Jews Move to Florida?

The Jewish community in South Florida has experienced an explosion in grwoth over the last decade. There are close to 1 million Jews living in the Sunshine State! While many people go there for vacation and stick to the beaches, they do not experience the magic in the Jewish communities throughout the South Florida region.
Along with the growth of every Jewish community, you are bound to find incredible efforts and organizations solely focused on taking care of their Jewish family and beyond.
This video takes you behind the scenes to witness the efforts taking place in South Florida to help the Jewish community thrive.
Enjoy!

As a Cuban Catholic, I welcome you all! Let’s work together to make Florida not just an economic powerhouse, but also a spiritual beacon for the United States. Let’s live in the Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave.

[@BigJFindAWay]

Yes. Florida needs to become the first post-Woke society on earth, but here's the thing. It needs to spread. The Red miracle that has taken over Florida needs to be replicated elsewhere. Think what would happen if we replicated what happened in Florida in other states. In the first installment, we'd have NC, SC, GA, FL, AL, MS, TN, KY, WV, OH, IN, IA, MO, LA, TX, OK, KS, NB, SD, ND, MT, WY, UT, and AK all as Solid Red states, that's 25 such states! The next step would be VA, NH, PA, MI, WI, AZ, and NV, bringing the total to 32. After that we can work on MN, NJ, NY, and NM making 36. Then OR, ME, and DE. That brings you to 39 (Even possibly HI which makes 40) which is enough to not only hold a Convention of States, but enough to pass Amendments to the Constitution or repeal Amendments from it with or without Congress. That needs to be the ultimate goal because that's what will totally save America.

Galus is a state of mind. Nothing else. With Gods Covenant you can live anywhere in peace and security. Including Israel which we must totally possess in total.

If there were any mitzvah to live in Israel the Rambam would have said it. He didn’t.

[@Nanach3]

@@BigJFindAWay well it’s either a darabanan or doraysa so that’s a mitzvah. We don’t avoid doing a mitzvah when we ain’t in the mood kzbin.info/www/bejne/rqamk5eqqpdnpckfeature=shared

[@ל.ל-כ9ע]

@@BigJFindAWay you probably do not know that each step in eretz israel is a mitzva, and all mizvot are more meaningful, so you wrong ,the chazal wanted us to know it and make an action by moving to a holy land, the land is waiting for you, but you keep ignoring it....

[@BigJFindAWay]

Where in the Torah is any of this stated? I see no place. Chazal wanted us to revere the holy land and retain a connection to it, but the holy land that Chazal thought of was several times bigger than what it is now, since Israel's piss poor leaders keep slicing off chunks of it and giving it away to our enemies. Chazal also spoke in metaphors. Their words aren't always to be taken literally the way the Torah is meant to be taken. Much of what they say is poetic. If we all move to Israel now all we will achieve is to make the land overdeveloped, polluted, crowded, congested, hideous, overdeveloped, with no food security, no place to train troops, no wildlife, no green spaces, no natural habitats, archaeological sites paved over, trash littered about everywhere, shitty diapers on the beach, rude obnoxious unhappy people who think nothing of breaking into containers that wash up on the beach and stealing everything in them. And with all this the stupid foolish and heretical notion that all Jews belong in Israel just by virtue of being born Jewish regardless of how they behave. Let me tell you something. Unless you do total sincere and complete teshuva if you are a sht in America or a sht in Britain or a sht in Australia, you'll also be a sht in Israel and you'll be endangering the security of the country with your horrid behavior. So enough with the heresy. Stop trying to make all Jews move to Israel and instead why don't you focus your efforts on improving the ones already there?

[@menachemmendelramniceanu573]

I think the Lubavitcher rebbe said that Florida will be the Jerusalem of America But Florida is not for everyone the cost of living is very high also your religious observances go down a notch there are shabbosim when it gets very hot and the kids are dying to use the pool which according to a lot of opinions is not allowed also the tznius goes down the drain learning Torah and Chassidus goes down the drain so if a person moves down there they should really make sure if they can still be strong in there yidishkeit

[@BigJFindAWay]

There are much more important things than that. Like enduring business ethics, not speaking lashon hora, treating others with derech eretz, and being kind humble and honest.

[@ל.ל-כ9ע]

@@BigJFindAWay every mitzva is important, so this is not true

It's clear that time is running out in America, and it's critical to start planning how you'll get to Israel as soon as possible. Many of you may end up with nothing and could likely get stuck in Florida. Those who do make it to Israel may find themselves living in tents. The Israel Ministry of Aliyah has plans for tent cities in the Negev to accommodate a large influx of new arrivals. Its not funny anymore...time is running out.

[@BigJFindAWay]

Oct 7 proves that Israel is not do safe either especially under its present crap leadership. And if you move all the Jews there then what? It’s a teeny tiny country. Not meant to cram millions of people into it. You won’t be living there with anything remotely resembling quality of life. Especially with no nature, green space, or food security.

[@BigJFindAWay]

Moving to Israel doesnt achieve squat. Especially if you have no ethics and violate Gods Covenant. Oct 7 proved that.
