kaiserW the goalposts haven’t moved. I’m the one who found the quote of the Chofetz Chaim and I’m telling you the way he said it from the text. You don’t have to like it but that’s the way it is.
Furthermore, this is nothing like what the Lubavicher rebbe said,when he said, and this time you can be the one to verify it from the sources, that there is no reason that Mashiach hasn’t come. The Chofetz Chaim said repeatedly that first we have to keep Mitzvos, stressing Shabbos, Taharas Hamishpacha, Kashrus etc.
Not that the L rebbe didn’t agree that those mitzvos have to be kept, but he did NOT make the demand for Mashiach dependent on their fulfillment.
