    With all due respect the “starvations” of the Germans Japanese or even currently the afghans or Iraqis weren’t broadcast to the world

    “I understand that you mean – Rabbi looks at the demonstrators and says “you are learning” and get same benefits?“

    Yes, is there a problem with that?

    “That is making things even clearer: after consulting and having a milchemes mitzva, Yehoshua is still told that he needs to learn – at night, after fighting. Not that you can do one of them and Hashem will count. Not that you can even have one group fighting and another shteiging.“

    How do you know that everyone went to fight?

    “And, according to your opinion, it is possible for a gadol to declare that going to the Army is equivalent to learning?
    Then, I suggest 2 approaches:
    1) follow RZ gedolim
    2) respectfully approach your gadol and ask whether he is amendable for such declaration l’ darkei shalom. Maybe, just a tryout for a week before end of bein haazmanim.“

    Aaq,

    We don’t go “gadol shopping” unless that’s your type of Yiddishkeit 🙄 and it seems like “דרכי שלום” seems like what the daati rabbanim are doing agreeing that they’re not obligated to go to the army

    It seems like a lot of people on this site are all or nothing type of people either sit and learn 24/7 or go fight

    Aaq,

    “you suggest transformation between different substances upon Rabbi’s decision?”

    Can you rephrase that in simpler English?

    “When malach told Yehoshua that he came because Jews were not learning during the war – Yehoshua could just say that when I order the fight, it counts as learning?! Or why he did not designate bnei Levi to sit and learn?“

    I don’t think Yehoshua was the same scenario because he could’ve asked the urim vteumim and that was a milchemes mitzvah

    You’re such a nice guy. I wrote my weekly Dvar Torah this week on the subject of rebuking other Jews. Thousands of people read me including some very prominent Rabbis.“

    “Sechel is correct that I misspoke that time out of ignorance. I am the first to admit that I am very far from a Talmid Chacham and so it’s quite possible that I can make a mistake“

    “He says “there’s not a Jew in the world who deserves punishment” that does not mean there is no שכר עונש”

    So if a person gets “punished” he’s telling Hashem that the person doesn’t deserve it? He knows better than Hashem?

    “coffee, thanks, but I am still reaching for the navi. There are a lot of features of tlamid chacham mentioned in the gemora that I view as a criteria“

    Aaq,

    I never said you were a TALMID chachacham, i said you are a CHACHAM which anyone can be (חכמה בגוים תאמין) the saying חכם עינו בראשו doesn’t only apply to Torah

    “I am a Navi because I can predict how this discussion will end: everyone will stand firm at their original opinion.“

    You should have called yourself a חכם because as שלמה המלך said “חכם עדיף מנביא”

    In feldheim’s translation of מאמר הגאולה from the רמח״ל quotes the מלבים (in a letter to Rav Tzvi Hirsh Kalischer) that the Jews will gain permission from the great leaders of the world to have ארץ ישראל then they will settle there , then Moshiach will come

    It seems like the tziyonim are going according to this malbim

    “First, what source in Torah do you have that makes this a meaningful distinction. Is your implication that a government that keeps Torah law is a “Jewish” government? So, which governments are the ones keeping more Jewish law?“

    You obviously don’t understand what makes something more Jewish than something else

    Hakatan wrote

    “bottom line, there is nothing “Jewish” about the zionist state, certainly nothing more Jewish than New York State or Lebanon.“

    To which I replied

    “I don’t think NYS or Lebanon shuts down their buses and their government offices on Yom Kippur”

    I didnt compare Israel to NY or Lebanon, Hakatan did, i didnt say Israel is a Jewish state im just showing that it’s “more Jewish” than Lebanon or NY

    I love how Lubavitchers have to turn themselves into a pretzel

    They take all these proofs that moshiach can come from the dead but argue on them that it HAS TO be their rebbe as opposed to whoever the other person is (anyone should pick the besht over the rebbe)

    “Garters separate the head from the lower part of the body, and some have thicker heads thsn others …. anyway, a tie fulfills the minimum requirement.“

    Does that mean the same holds true for thicker ties?

    Sechel,

    A common misconception is that רוח הקודש is נבואה, really it is a step below it

    The Gemara says that kids and שוטים have רוח הקודש so we see that never left

    I personally think there is the opposite effect

    Since the holocaust generation didnt have food they more or less force fed their kids and that made their kids entitled

    I would like to know where the parents were before they took him out of the school? Did they try to teach the kid how to deal with “a bully or bullies” did they show they were on his side every step of the way?

    Additionally I find it highly unlikely that Chaim will get punished for what he did as a kid in elementary school and instead the parents who said “kids will be kids” will get the punishment

    My kid got bullied and we went and dealt with it and taught him to stick up for himself when the other parents said kids will be kids

    “Golus is defined in Tanach and Gemara as location based.“

    “I am in Eretz Yisroel and I am NOT in galus.”

    Obviously not because of galus yavan (like I mentioned before) and the 400 years of mitzrayim started with Yitzchak who lived in eretz yisrael

    But believe whatever you want
