    People who mostly learn during the week should sleep more on Shabbos and learn less than during the week. People who mostly work during the week, do not work on Shabbos and should learn more on Shabbos than during the week, and sleep less on Shabbos than a learning man.

    People have short term memories. When the vaccines first came out they were sold as once and done (either one or two shots, vzeh hu.) Only later did they start insisting on a booster. After people got upsed to that, you started hearing murmurs of a fourth shot.

    Now they’re starting to slip into the public consciousness never ending, continuous, booster shots.

    RW: I’m referring to the time since the establishment of the State of Israel.

    My point is that the State of Israel is in a state of Golus.

    P.S. The State of Israel is as much in Golus as is Iran, Russia, America, Venezuela, France and Germany.

    P.P.S. More Jews are killed for being Jewish in the Israeli Golus than in the Iranian Golus, German Golus or American Golus.

    Avira, I’m not sure I agree with you. If a Reform Jew posted on this site would you entertain his Reform views and engage in a conversation whether the Orthodox or Reform views are more correct? If not, I don’t see why engaging with the above Open Orthodox adherent is any different.

    Ghadora: Your reply left out responding to the second paragraph of the comment you were addressing. If you live your life in a Western societal framework and base your worldview on the same, rather than living a Torah societal framework and view on how you evaluate societal issues, then indeed what you say may be the current secular view on these issues. (Secular society changes its stance on these issues every several decades, moving further decadently/”progressively” to the left.)

    And to be consistent with your self-subscribed views, you’d surely express the same modern Western views on supporting toeiva, abortion and blasphemy as being the correct and proper view for yourself and others to believe in, support and subscribe to.

    Ghadora: Does Kayin having killed Hevel also demonstrate, per your above logic, that the Eibeshter’s opposition to murder changed somewhere along the way? And that the Yidden’s mass worship of the eigel whilst Moshe Rabbeinu was away demonstrates the Eibeshter’s previous opposition to Avoda Zora also changed somewhere along the way? As you argue, the record shows that the Eibeshter “abstained” in each of those cases.

    Presumably you also argue for the righteousness of abortion, toeiva, and blasphemy, as they too are all fully legal and constitutionally protected practices in modern Western society, apparently demonstrating the Eibeshter’s “abstentions” and thus change in reasoning somewhere along the way.

    “I think her time is long overdue, whether she is black, white or other.”

    To huju: While you disagree with Mr. Biden, Old Joe in the White House does insist it be a person of African descent and not an Asian, Caucasian or “other”.

    Regarding your agreement with Joe that it be a she and not a he, Hashem has very good reason to insists judges only be a He.

    Reb Eliezer, even if the two most qualified candidates were equal to each other, it is absolutely wrong to use race or other such factors as a tie breaker. Race and such should have absolutely no bearing whatsoever in making the selection.

    Would you be okay if the white guy was selected over an equally qualified black candidate simply because he’s white?

    The reality is when they specifically select a minority or woman or other such criteria to the detriment and exclusion of white guys, they’re selecting a clearly less qualified minority candidate.

    The Ukraine is an artificial country created by the communists. Prior to the breakup of the Soviet Union in 1991, it was never an independent country. It was always, essentially, part of the same country as Russia. It was effectively first created as a separate legal entity after the Russian revolution in 1917 when the communists created for their own political purposes.

    Furthermore, Crimea has been part of Russia for hundreds of years from the time of Catherine. It was only transferred on paper, since it made virtually no legal difference, from Russia to Ukraine in the 1970s by the Ukrainian dictator of the USSR, Krushekov.

    And in 2014 Obama and Hillary supported and assisted the violent coup d’etat against the democratically elected President of Ukraine, replacing him with an anti-Russian government.

    America and NATO have no interest in protecting the Ukrainian government.

    Simcha: Yes. Reagan was absolutely wrong on that. If the nine Supreme Court justices, selected due to their being the most qualified candidates, were all White Anglo-Saxon Protestant men, then G-d bless all those male WASP justices. And long may they serve.

    Bean counting has no place in selecting the most qualified candidates.

    Grover Cleveland was both the 22nd and the 24th president. He is counted twice since his two terms were non-consecutive.

    Just like Donald Trump can be both the 45th and the 47th president.

    huju: You’re not the only person who keeps his head in a bubble and laughs when only listening to sources that conforms with your worldview while shutting yourself out from the truths that hurt your sensibilities that inform about news happenings and viewpoints that your left-wing upbringing cannot stomach.

    P.S. The Economist (which I’ve been reading since the early/mid-90’s) is liberal. And the Wall Street Journal news pages (not considering its editorial page) is certainly not conservative and, in fact, leans against conservatism. This has been the case both when Dow Jones was owned by the Bancroft family as well as since it has been bought by News Corp, which under its Bancroft contractual sale terms is permanently firewalled from influencing the news pages.

    Ukraine is a highly antisemitic country. They’re infamous for the Cossacks that murdered Yidden. Tach V’Tat. And during the Holocaust they helped the Nazis annihilate Jews.

    Even today they revere and honor those antisemites who murdered thousands of Jews, with statues, holidays, parades and celebrations.

Examples of other outlets that are comparatively more reliable, even if they suffer their own biases to a notably lesser extent than your examples are The Economist, The Wall Street Journal, and The Washington Times.
