The Elimination of Khamenei is Purim for the Entire World • A Lesson for the Night of Shushan Purim from Rabbi Eliezer Berland shlit"a

Presented below is a summary of the topics from the daily lesson delivered by our teacher, the Rav, Rabbi Eliezer Berland shlit"a—following the Maariv (evening) prayer on Tuesday night, the 15th of Adar 5786, the night of Shushan Purim, Parshas Ki Sisa:

1. Haman was a Canaanite slave and observed the mitzvos (commandments) like a woman.

2. Zeresh said, "If Mordechai... is of Jewish descent, before whom you have begun to fall, you will surely fall before him." Zeresh did not die.

3. The entire war with Iran lasted only 30 seconds; they eliminated the oppressor of the Jews and his entire parliament within half a minute. We were exactly in the middle of standing for the Shemoneh Esrei (the Eighteen Benedictions prayer). If we had waited another two weeks, we would no longer have been able to find the missiles that would have reached Europe, for they had missiles intended to reach as far as Europe.

4. For whoever fights against the Jews develops an appetite to fight the entire world, and then he falls.

5. Such a Purim miracle never was and never will be; this is a Purim for the entire world, which was saved from Khamenei.

6. With Hashem's help, Mashiach (the Messiah) will arrive this year; Shuvu Banim will welcome the Mashiach. There is no longer any trace of the oppressors—we have wiped them all out!
