    Asher Weiss

    A partial list of some of his questionable statements:

    Nurses and doctors at Shaare Tzedek are required to treat Hamas terrorists since live terrorists are more valuable than dead ones in a prisoner exchange. He also says that Israel should obey international law. If Israel followed international law/opinion, the state of Israel would never have gotten off the ground nor could we combat terrorism and the Jewish presence in Eretz Yisrael would come to an end.
    Soldiers should not give their wives a conditional gett before going to war. https://rumble.com/v3pi5mv-asher-weiss-misrepresents-the-jewish-law-on-gittin-in-times-of-war.html

    Said that halacha required people to take the first three shots of the covid vax. He was short on sources and does not take questions on the matter. It is obvious now that Pfizer etc. fabricated data to make the shots look safe. There are governments that don’t recommend that many populations do not take them now. I have been to several funerals and shivas from people who took the jabs, along with others who have been injured. In fact, I was at a Shabbat meal recently, where the host’s father got a stroke after one of the shots. Also, witness that the YU alumni news has had a lot more death notices of people under 50.Vid here of him giving a menacing look to a rabbi questioning him about the vax and his driver pushes the questioner (granted that the style had a gotcha component to it.) {https://rumble.com/v2ay2n4-confronting-asher-weiss-and-getting-assaulted.html]. Reb Moshe would allow questions and provided sources on his teshuvot.

    Admits that he is a posek for the Shebak [https://rumble.com/v3pasfk-asher-weiss-lets-it-drop-that-he-takes-halachic-questions-from-the-shabak.html]. Every position he takes, backs the anti-Torah government of Israel. The Sheback, like the IDF, has a large left wing component to it. On Nov 4, 1976, RMK HYD, whose yahrtzeit wasin MarCheshvan, was beaten up by them and left for dead in the Old City. They also have tortured suspects without evidence. They took away the gun from the only licensed person on the Yishuv recently.

    Decries violations of public health (like masking and vaxing), yet won’t assur soda, candy, nor foods cooked with canola oil, which are bad for one’s health according to all medical opinions.

    Be lucky that you have a job. 25% of us don’t due to the economic terrorism wrought by the lockdowns.

    Halacha for sephardim and kabblah – yes. Ashkenazim – minhag that we have adopted. stronger for men than women. Rav Yosef Chaim Zonnenfeld, Rav Shlomo Zalman Auerbach, Rav Yosef Shalom Elyashiv, Rav Chaim Pinchas Scheinberg, Rav Ovadia Yosef, Rav Mordechai Eliyahu, Rav Moshe Sternbuch, the Rivevos Efraim, and the Shevet HaKehasi[29], all rule that regardless of the rationale, women still should be vigilant with washing Mayim Acharonim.

    The current prayer for tzahal is harmful because we say that they should be successful in all their endeavors. Indirectly, it davens for soldiers who protect “Palestianian civilians” in times of war and soldiers throwing Jews out of their homes. The prayer should be amended.

    In light of the current kashrut reality, it would be assur. Is Cholov Stam one big Cholov Scam? Yes

    Over the past fifteen years, liquid Chalav stam has become possibly chalav from a triefe due to the widespread use of displaced abomasums operations that nick the intestines and other body parts. Poskim who share this view are R Elyashiv, R Kamiensky, R Rubin, R Malinowitz, and R Wosner poskin that the cholov stam milk supplies in the US and many European countries are unreliable.

    My main issue with the Charedi parties is the failure of them to advocate the mitzvot of yishuv haretz, pkuach nefesh, and avenge the blood of the people who have died in terrorist attacks and defending the Jews who live in EY. There was a great rabbi who was very articulate on these issue who is no longer with us. You can call him a charedi Zionist. The Modox were more opposed to him than the charedim.
