CTL: It’s perfectly fine that you feel that the United States shouldn’t engage in regime change. Everyone has the right to an opinion (obviously). But as you know, this has been the practice of the United States since WWII (if not earlier), by both parties, to serve US and international interests:
Syria ’49, Iran ’53, Guatamala ’54, Indonesia ’58, Cuba (Bay of Pigs) ’61, Congo ’61, Dominican ’61, Iraq ’63, Vietnam ’63, Brazil ’64, Indonesia ’65, Chile ’70/’73, Bolivia ’71, Angola ’75+, Argentina ’76, Afghanistan ’79-’89, El Salvador ’80-’92, Nicaragua 81-90, Grenada 83, Panama 89, Iraq ’92, Haiti ’94, Serbia ’00, Afghanistan ’01, Venezuela ’02, Iraq ’03, Haiti ’04, Somalia 06, Honduras 09, Libya ’11, Syria ’11, Venezuela 19, Bolivia 19, Venezuela ’26.
My point is President Trump isn’t doing anything new in this regard. Not even close.
Haleivi: If some idiots call people rodfim because they protest against Israel at the UN together with Palestinians, the above here is a much lesser transgression.
somejew: Well done refuting ZSK’s Herzl/BenGurion-aligned views.
Are you asking regarding a Jew or regarding a Goy?
Fanatical Zionism is the biggest cause of antisemitism worldwide today and for the last 77 years.
How is your day going, sir?
It’s just hot air.
It is true that many from both Oberlanders and Yekkes “assimilated” into both other Litvish/Yeshivish and Chasidish communities. But Vien still davens Nusach Ashkenaz other than in their Williamsburg location (which presumably changed so that they have a strong minyan there.)
Dr. Pepper: I’m a very patient fellow. I can wait a year. 😃
Rocky: That simply isn’t accurate. The in town communities have a higher per capita rate of bnei aliya. And because there are much more of them in town, that helps keep others in line and from falling. There are also many more Rabbonim and Roshei Yeshiva in town than out.
There we go folks; Ex-CTLawyer is all the proof we need that people do change their minds here.
Yankel: HaKatan is absolutely 100% correct. The entire Torah world and Gedolei Yisroel always considered the Satmar Rebbe ztvk’l of the greatest of the great Gedolei Yisroel. Even when they might have quibbled over some nuances. By and large all of the Gedolei Yisroel from the Litvish and Chasidish worlds and the Satmar Rebbe agreed with each other on all major points.

Dovid: Which WordPress addon here is of low quality?
Rocky: The ruchniyos is definitely much much better in-town.
The more frum Yidden you live amongst, the better the ruchniyos will always be.
ZSK: somejewiknow answer you point by point, refuting virtually every point in your comments.
How to deal with the State post facto is also a matter of Psak Halacha.
This already exists.
Yankel: The issue regarding the permissibility of the Medina is a matter of *Psak* Halacha; it is not “merely” an issue of hashkafa.
Yankel: I offered the Zionists own testimony against Kastner’s Nazi collaboration , I offered Gedolei Yisroel’s testimony against Kastner Nazi collaboration and, as a point of reference in addition to the preceding, I offered what the Nazis themselves said about Kastner’s collaboration with them.
It is almost Zos Chanukah, and we will, once again, be celebrating our own modern day Zos Chanukah miracle of the pidyon shvuyim release of the Tzadik Reb Shalom Mordechai.
