If there is an option of choosing a section called eretz yisroel, why not have one called u.k. too?
January 15, 2014 1:30 pm at 1:30 pm #998984Geordie613ParticipantIt’s because the UK is small and insignificant. The world consists of New York, Out of town, and Eretz Yisroel.
January 15, 2014 1:35 pm at 1:35 pm #998985takahmamashParticipantBecause it’s a mitzvah to live in E”Y. There’s no mitzvah to live in the U.K.
January 15, 2014 2:18 pm at 2:18 pm #998986Geordie613ParticipantAlso the UK is a sfek sfeika. If Scotland votes for independence then it will be called the disUK.

1)This site is Brooklyncentric
2)This site includes the coffee room, which necessitates some humor, and, British humor is inscrutable to Yankees, expats and all.

What are you talking about? Monty Python rocks!

January 17, 2014 4:07 am at 4:07 am #998991147ParticipantBecause UK speaks English as does USA & Australia & New Zealnd & most of Canada[;
The question should read, why there is no French section for Quebecois & French people? or Spanish section for the Mexicans & Argentinians {obviously not for Spaniards as it is only 22 years since the Herem expired in Spain so not enough time to have rebuilt a significant Jewish population in Spain since 1992}.
January 19, 2014 8:40 am at 8:40 am #998992👑RebYidd23ParticipantBecause I don’t live there, which makes it insignificant.
January 19, 2014 11:41 pm at 11:41 pm #998993RR44Participant“Because it’s a mitzvah to live in E”Y. There’s no mitzvah to live in the U.K.”
Who said? There’s a mitzva to live where there is an eruv – and loads of YWN posters.
January 19, 2014 11:46 pm at 11:46 pm #998994TheGoqParticipantBecause this is the coffee room not the tea room.
January 20, 2014 1:08 am at 1:08 am #998995–ParticipantBecause if the mods make a UK section (techncally GB, UK is not a valid ISO 3166-1 code), an AU section won’t be too far away.
