Katan,

1. Then why doesn’t he mention them in Mishna Tora? Why doesn’t the Tur? Why doesn’t the Shulchan Aruch.

2. True but it was a calculated risk in time of war.

3. Several committees of inquiry, including two established by Likud governments, showed that there was no such policy. All but a few of the children were accounted for as having died. The tehran children were, in fact, saved form Soviet shmad.

4. You can make up whatever you want.

5. On the contrary, Zionism is a beracha on both a spiritual and physical level. Rav Soloveichik said that if not for the establishment of the State the Jews would have converted out in the national depression following the Holocaust (which could have been averted if not for anti-Zionism, as Rav Teichtal writes in Em HaBanim Semeicha – he equates it with the Sin of the Spies).

6. This is specifically said to be a sign of the Geula. There are none so blind as those who will not see.

7. The Three Oaths have not been binding for a long time, if they have ever been. I have proven this conclusively many times. I refer you to my previous posts on the subject.
