Our Most Effective Weapon

In siman beis of Likutey Moharan, Rebbe Nachman of Breslov teaches that the main weapon of a Jew is prayer.

The Jew has a tremendous power, he only needs to recognize and use it. A "New Middle East" will never come about through concessions and the economic development of enemies. The Situation will change for the better once the Jewish people put aside their petty differences and make use of their most effective weapon to fight their battles.

It is time that we open our eyes.

* For further reading on this issue I highly recommend the chapter "The Battlefield of Prayer" in Rabbi Frand's new book in which he writes, "But how do you fight back against Yishmael? Is it with guns, grenades, missiles? No. We have to counteract the strongest weapon in his arsenal, and that is prayer. Yishmael prays, and we have to pray more sincerely in order to defeat him."
