    This is the OPs second post. His first, and previously only post, essentially the same as this one, was made 13 years ago. He hasn’t uttered a word in 13 years until now. The multiple threads that you see in his history are all from 13 years ago, and all on the exact same date. Due to a CR software error the threads duplicated.

    feivel doesn’t come by often enough. sam4321s missed. squeak hasn’t shown his face in too long. I Can Only Try has been gone too long. PM/hello99 is a choshuve Rov (in the full sense) who freely shares his halachic expertise. mdlevine is loved by all. Kapusta, smartcookie and Lilmod Ulelamaid always have much wisdom to share.

    There are too many others in our friends and CR family list who equally deserve recognition to be mentioned. Consider yourselves included and rejoin the discussions ASAP! No more excuses for being AWOL.

    And special mention to itzik_s/600 Kilo Bear Z”L who never failed to make excellent points others overlooked and always did so with his signature humor. We will meet him again with Moshiach bimheiro byomeinu.

    I’ll take Avira’s disdain for those philosophies that believe you can throw off the yoke of Torah and Mitzvos, any day, over commonseichel’s disdain for Bnei Torah, Talmidei Chachomim, Rabbonim and anyone he considers to be too farfrumpt.

    Yseribus, Powell was a leftist who endorsed Obama both times, then Hillary Clinton and finally Biden. To him, a moderate/centrist like John McCain was “too right-wing”. No true Republican would’ve selected Obama over McCain or Mitt Romney. He couldn’t tell the difference between the political right and the political left.

    Syag, you have a strong tendency, many years in the making, of putting words and thoughts into others mouths where they don’t and never existed. Indeed, in my EVERY COMMENT HERE I specifically, clearly and directly only referred to those that “REJECT the Torah”, in those verbatim words! Yet, you syag, nevertheless, falsely attribute my comment to referring to anyone that didn’t reject the Torah.

    This is an old habit of yours. You do this to anyone you disagree with. Just yesterday it was Reb Eliezer that you did this to. Everyday you find another victim.

    Syag, wrong.

    You wrote “Everyone has heard how the chofetz chaim treated the yid who broke shabbos.” That bochor didn’t “reject the Torah”, which is the term I carefully used. In fact, that bochor was in Yeshiva learning Torah. He sinned on Shabbos for reasons of taaiva, not lhachis. Of course we love such people. And try to teach them to add help them to teshuva.

    But someone who holds the Torah is man-written, non-binding or changeable and REJECTS it as written by G-d and compulsory as such, him we do not love.

    The Moda B’Yehuda says those who read the Rema as permitting shituf for Goyim are misreading the Rema as the Rema only permits a Goy to swear for a contract using as such. But the Noda B’Yehuda states that the Rema does not permit belief in shituf even for Goyim.

    Froggie: Do you use the Hebrew edition or the English edition? (I won’t ask if you use the French edition.)

    P.S. So that we stay on topic here I must also ask you, are you a Yeshiva bochor?

    The Noda B’Yehuda explicitly rules that shituf is pure Avoda Zora when practiced by a gentile.

    This OP/thread may have set a record in covering such an extensive set of diverse topics (right in the opening post itself). Namely — vaccinations, Shabbos Goys, Covid, US cabinet positions, affirmative action, ingrates and military leaders.

    huju: Please identify what you imagine Powell gave Republicans. Certainly not any even minimally significant voting base.

    Offhand, some better candidates would have been Richard Perle, Richard Armitage or Paul Wolfowitz.

    Appointing unqualified people to important positions is a Democrat specialty. Republicans sometimes make stupid appointments, but Democrats rarely make a non-foolhardy appointment.

    huju:

    (i) His endorsement of Obama in 2008, alleging that John McCain was “too right-wing” (!! don’t laugh too hard) is a prominent example. That after everything the Republicans did for him throughout his career. Suddenly he made an endorsement based on race.

    (ii) Obviously evidence will, by definition, not be left visible, nevertheless an educated analysis clearly points to that based on the party’s need to have black cabinet members, military leaders, etc. to mollify the false accusations of racism. As well as the number of much better candidates passed over in favor of Powell.

    As Rav Moshe and Chacham Ovadia Yosef found it necessary to issue a teshuva on this question, and they didn’t typically get shailos from Chasidim, it demonstrates this question was relevant to the Litvish and Sefardic communities as well.

    Of course an “air show” is quite vital to the security of Klal Yisroel.

    They should have better used their time to daven or learn Torah, rather than put on an air show to show how big and powerful they think they are.

    RE: Iraq was probably the only thing he got right. At least the second time. In the first round, in 1991, he forgot to take out Saddam. Which is why America needed a round two to take down that genocidal dictator.
