” Howard Jonas has contributed money to the great bizayon haTorah and michshoilim, YCT and yeshivas Maharat.”
I attended the Yeshivat Maharat commencement last week and Mr. Jonas’ name did not appear on the contributors list.
“Much worse than making money gambling or selling cigarettes.”
Supporting Orthodox Yeshivot like YCT is a mitzvah. Making money by gambling or selling things that kill Jews is asur. How many Jewish lives have been ruined by Mr. Adelson’s casinos, and how many Jewish lives have been ended Mr. Tisch’s tobacco? YCT alumni bring people to Torah, giving them life.
