“Harav Hagoan” posted: “starwolf: are you living in a vacuum? if you’ll reread my previous posts you’ll see that i already listed several books. you ask what the chareidi world has accomplished? nothing much, aside from rebuilding Torah from the ashes (despite the hindrances of your ilk). i know that thats probably meaningless to you, but its only fair to judge a society by their own ideals. “

Do you refer to your citation “Another great book that might remove some of your ignorance is “The Holocaust In History” by Prof. Michael R. Mauruss. “

First of all, when citing, learn to spell the name of the author. Second of all, where does Dr. Marrus accuse Zionists of complicity in the Shoah–which is the argument that you brought?

The Hareidim rebuilt Torah from the ashes? Once again, you neglect to bother to thank those that helped establish the Hareidi centers of learning–i.e. the Modern Orthodox. How did “my ilk” hinder the building of these institutions? Do you feel that we do not give you enough support?

I could also make the point that had those Torah community leaders in Europe listened to the Zionists and others who urged them to emigrate while there was time–the ashes of Europe would have contained fewer flowers of Torah than they did. Would you care to blame the Zionists and Modern Orthodox for that as well?
