Kasha: Thank you VERY much. I read the teshuva and was very disappointed.
While I respect Rav Belsky very much and think there are good reasons to potentially be meikil, I felt that the teshuva did not do justice to the meikilim and relied too much on attacking the ossrim rather than laying out a clear line of reasoning to be matir.
The bottom line is he writes it is ridiculous to think the anisakis is any different than the worms permitted by the Gemara and Shulchan Aruch, however he never clearly explains why the Gemara and SA would logically permit these worms based on the metzius as we now know it to be. Also some of the reasons he gives for dismissing the ossrim are not at all compelling.
