n0mesorah,
“He had a good reason to be vague. The exact number isn’t an issue according to Rav Moshe’s shitta. You didn’t answer why this wasn’t cleared up with Rav Dovid.”
He admitted in Chicago and LA that the number is 3 million. According to Rav Moshe’s last two teshuvos anything less is a gezeira. I believe that Rav Dovid was trying to answer for the incorrect facts that Rav Moshe was mislead about. However, it is irrelevant, we all have a right to learn his fathers teshuvos, and judge for ourselves. I don’t have to clarify it even with his son, he wrote it clearly. There is no oral Torah. I simply do not believe anything that contradicts his teshuvos, no matter who says it. Flatbush and its environs does not exist in Rav Moshe’s teshuvos, period.
