Baltimore, MD - Mar. 22, 2026  -  BJL just received this voice note from one of our myriad readers: "My husband is traveling today, so with everything going on at airports nowadays, we decided to check online to see what the wait times were. He kept checking the online info for TSA at BWI, which said the wait times were not bad - about 10 minutes. We literally scheduled our drive based on that. I dropped him off, and when he got there, the line was about 3/4 of a mile long. He said the wait is at least an hour, and all of the online information and the boards at the airport are totally wrong. So I just want to put it out there that if people are traveling, it may not be best to rely on that system, because they will miss their flights – he will most likely miss his." ...

Arad, Israel - Mar. 22, 2026 - Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, today (Sunday, 22 March 2026), at the site of the missile hit in Arad:  “If you want proof that Iran endangers the entire world, the last 48 hours have given it. In the last 48 hours, Iran targeted a civilian area. They're doing that as a mass murder weapon. Luckily, no one was killed, but that's due to luck, not their intention. Their intention is to murder civilians. Second, they are using, they fired on Jerusalem right next to the holy sites of the three monotheistic faiths, the Western Wall, the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, and the Al-Aqsa Mosque. And by dint of a miracle, again, none of them were hurt, but they were targeting the holy sites of the three major monotheistic religion. Third, they fi...
The IDF on Sunday afternoon struck the Qasmiya Bridge across the Litani River on Lebanon's coastal highway. The strike was conducted to prevent the Hezbollah terror organization from transporting reinforcements and weapons to the southern Lebanon battlefront. Ahead of the strike, IDF Arabic Language Spokesman Avichay Adraee published an urgent evacuation message to the residents of the area. The message explains that due to Hezbollah activity and the transportation of terrorists under civilian protection, the IDF is forced to conduct a widespread and precise strike on terrorist infrastructure. "For your security, you must continue travelling north of the Zaharani River and avoid any southward traffic that can risk your lives," Adraee warned the local civilian population. The IDF s...

President Donald Trump threatened to deploy Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents to airports across the country if Democrats do not agree to end the ongoing funding impasse that has disrupted operations and led to staffing shortages. He made the announcement on Saturday in a Truth Social post.
"If the radical left Democrats don’t immediately sign an agreement to let our country, in particular, our airports, be free and safe again, I will move our brilliant and patriotic ICE agents to the airports where they will do security like no one has ever seen before, including the immediate arrest of all illegal immigrants who have come into our country, with heavy emphasis on those from Somalia, who have totally destroyed, with the approval of a corrupt govern...
Iran early Sunday morning responded to US President Donald Trump’s ultimatum demanding that it reopen the Strait of Hormuz within 48 hours, threatening to strike all US and Israeli infrastructure across the region if its facilities came under attack. "If Iran's fuel and energy infrastructure is attacked by the enemy, all energy, information technology, and desalination infrastructure belonging to the United States and the (Israeli) regime in the region will be targeted," a spokesperson for the Khatam al-Anbiya Central Headquarters, the body overseeing Iranian military operations, said in a statement quoted in Iran’s Fars news agency. Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi also warned that Iran would show "zero restraint" if its infrastructure was att...
US President Donald Trump issued an ultimatum to Iran on Saturday night, saying they must open the Strait of Hormuz unconditionally within 48 hours. “If Iran doesn’t FULLY OPEN, WITHOUT THREAT, the Strait of Hormuz, within 48 HOURS from this exact point in time, the United States of America will hit and obliterate their various POWER PLANTS, STARTING WITH THE BIGGEST ONE FIRST!" Trump wrote in a post on Truth Social. In a post published about an hour earlier, Trump said that “the United States has blown Iran off of the map", rejecting analysis stating he hasn’t met the goals of the war. “Yes I have, and weeks ahead of schedule! Their leadership is gone, their navy and air force are dead, they have absolutely no defense, and they want to make a deal. I don&r...

Baltimore, MD - Mar. 21, 2026 - Three years ago, Baltimore lost a giant, Rabbi Moshe Juravel, zt”l. I had the zechus to write an article about him, which was warmly received. He inspired so many in various ways. In the article, I shared that before Pesach, Rabbi Juravel wanted to teach the boys about family minhagim and gave out a questionnaire for the boys to fill out. (Click on the graphics below for a larger, printable version.) My brother, who was in his class, brought this home and my father excitedly filled it out. Years later, my other brother used this as a springboard to write a kunteres for our family of its minhagim, all from a handout to a fifth-grader! In the opening, he writes: "To the parents of my talmidim. Yiddishkeit has survived the galus intact because of our ab...

Baltimore, MD - Mar. 20, 2026 - Amid the War with Iran, soaring prices at the pump, state Republicans are making a push for a 30-day gas tax holiday. "Our joint Republican Caucus is going to be pursuing, we are pursuing a 30-day gas tax holiday that would mirror what we did in the winter of 2022, when the General Assembly, in a bipartisan way, and Governor Hogan signed a 30 day gas tax holiday," Senator Justin Ready said. Currently, the gas tax is about $.46 per gallon, and Republicans argue that in the short term, it could provide meaningful relief at the pump. According to the American Automobile Association (AAA), the average gas price in Maryland as of Friday was $3.83, which is just below the national average of $3.91. "I don't think anyone should really be opposed to this,...
