Reply To: Shalom Rubashkin, a wake up call to us

Is Shalom Rubashkin’s plight similar to that of Yair ben Menashe because executives’ actions of a particular “frum” organization are similar to that of Achan ben Carmi? According to Rabbi Nechemia, in Perek 7 of Sefer Yehoshua we learn that one man suffered death, Yair ben Menashe, because of Achan’s greed. Why should Yair have died and in turn caused grieving to the entire Klal Yisroel because of another man’s totally unrelated greed? We as a Klal grieve for the injustice being done to Shalom Rubashkin. Is there a lesson to be learned here?
