    @somejew

    examples of yb’s supposed kefira , according to somejew:

    ======================================================
    1] You’ve construed a false binary between a Zionist state and another Holocaust …
    [somejew to yb]

    That’s not kefira .
    Even according to you , that somehow there exists , a realistic totally safe path for the medina to be dismantled . Even if that would have been a correct description of reality, even then.
    My portrayal is at most, nothing more than a misread of the reality in front of us.

    Kfira, man dechar shemei !

    ==================================================

    2] You’ve rejected the axioms of schar vonesh on it’s face in thinking that the actions of the IDF exclusively decide life and death for the millions of people living within that evil state’s borders, and not their gzar din from Rosh Hashuneh.
    [somejew to yb]

    Sheker .

    I never rejected s’char va’onesh in any way, shape or form.

    I merely put into practise centuries old halachik practise. When dealing with a choleh and the best way of treating him , we have to establish the metsi’ut first. Same with pidyon shevuyim .

    We have to decide on who the best surgeon is AL PI DERECH HATEVAH, which way of treatment is the most mutslach AL PI DERECH HATEVAH , which approach to take with the kidnapping party AL PI DERECH HATEVAH .

    That is our very grave responsibilty when confronted with a pikuach nefesh choleh r’l.

    And if we are light about it, flippant about it, then we are shofech damim.

    One cannot ask – it is already decreed anyway from rosh hashana , so what’s the big deal which surgeon we will hire.

    No , it is a big deal !

    Rav Yisrael Salanter famously explained that bitachon is not warranted when another jew needs your help, for sure not bimkom pikuach nefesh.

    Rather one should do EVERYTHING one can .

    No contradiction whatsoever to schar va’onesh.
    Or to gzera mirosh hashana.
    Or to ani mamin sheboreh yitbarach shemo boreh umanhig et kol habru’im.

    If that is correct for one choleh , why is this not correct for millions of them ?

    IDF , or any jew , or any other collective or organisation of Jews [eg hatsole shomrim] are obligated to act as if there would not be any notion of bitochon

    After one does EVERYTHING POSSIBLE and there is a result , we know and believe that the result is totally min hashamayim. Here we use schar va’onesh.
    And the gzera mirosh hashana.
    And ani mamin sheboreh yitbarach shemo , oseh et kol hama’asim, boreh umanhig et kol habru’im.

    But before, when we have to act , we act AL PI DERECH HATEVAH !

    Proof is in the pudding . Puk Chazi – how does hatsole act ?
    Exactly the Same with pikuach nefesh in our Holy Land.

    Are hatsole kofrim ??? Has veshalom. But they have to act AL PI DERECH HATEVAH and
    do everything humanly possible, as if it depends on them.

    Exactly the Same with pikuach nefesh in our Holy Land.
    .
    .
    No kfira whatsoever in my words .

    …. because (if well) you breached any norms of yiddishkeit and have full on entered kefira mode.
    …. I can’t point out every breach of yours, nor do I think you care ….

    Grave accusations , my dear somejew.

    I just now read your post . Quickly.

    I want to read it slowly. Od hazon lamo’ed.

    In the meantime , the following is an old question I was not zocheh to hear an answer on :

    Reminder

    A] the following is somejew’s “psak” :

    this is somejews language , copied and pasted :

    In (very) short, that means that if goyim – chas v’shulem – threaten masses of jews, our kosher responses are: make peace, give gifts, run away, and pray to G-d. What we are not allowed to do is organize an army and physically fight the enemy.

    [somejew]

    ——-

    B] the following is maran habet yosefs psak in his halacha sefer the shulchan aruch :

    halacha mandates , violating Shabbos to physically fight against an enemy that attempts to seize even ‘kash vateven’ —since it begins with kash and ends with lives (Shulchan Aruch, Orach Chaim, siman 329).

    Will repeat again :

    mandates to …. physically fight against an enemy.

    This is the question mr somejew –

    How do you fit A with B ?

    @katan .

    This is very important.

    here katan broke ranks with somejew.

    if we are to take katan at face value [no reason not to]

    katan agrees here that pikuach nefesh supersedes any understanding of the three oaths

    so [even if] organizing an army to defend the yoshvei EY would contravene the oaths , nevertheless bimkom pikuach nefesh , this is mandated

    katan argues that the IDF is not a good fit, because its involvement with the three hamurot.

    meaning avoda zara giluy arayot and shfihut damim.

    the Q is now . the mere fact that the IDF is osek in those three , is that enough to stop a frum jew’s involvement in the IDF

    or do we need to consider the candidate, the frum jew’s own participation in the three hamurot ?
    .

    meaning : if the frum jew himself will not participate in the three hamurot , but other people within that army are,

    is that ground to prohibit the frum jew’s participation in the IDF to save lives ?
    .
    .

    Where is somejew ?

    Is he reconsidering his allegiance ?

    katan permits organized self defense in galut to save lives

    but he rejects IDF because it is a shmad army

    accordingly , what happens to bal tshuva who is a previous member of IDF and is now called to serve

    he is not impressionable as he is older now

    and knows he can withstand the tests how terrible they may be

    q is

    should he abstain from enlisting bichlal

    or should he enlist

    @ qwerty

    even if the leader of habad would miraculously reappear I would not follow him

    neither should any believing yid.

    there is a whole parasha in the torah addressing this phenomenon specifically

    what happens when the navi sheker gives an ot or makes a mofet ?

    moshe rabenu our thue and klal yisrael wide true prophet forewarned us

    ki menasseh hashem etchem

    HKBH is testing us

    are we truly following the torah or not

    so definitely , no

    even if habad’s leader will pretend to duplicate j’s alleged moftim

    or pretend to copy shabtai tzvi’s rumored supernatural wonders

    we , the collective yidden all over the globe , spanning all our generations , both present and future

    will NOT bow down and will not be duped .

    the following is an excerpt from tunasifish

    …. [the leader of the habadi’s] got very upset at people in 1960 when they wanted him to take on the leadership and he made reb avrohom hayor pick up thousands of pamphlets saying the rebbes moshiach in e”y …

    meaning the leader of habad made his hasid retract claims that the leader is mashiach [claim by tunafish]

    why then did the very same leader encourage and publicly validate his own mashiach claim ???

    did he consider himself mashiach or not ???

    if he did , why did he order the retraction of the pamphlets in the 1960’s ?

    if he did not , why all the crazy [pseudo xtian] public mashiach frenzy in the 1980’s and the 1990’s ??

    what is tunafish’s REAL opinion ?

    @ujm

    I promised a quote from AVNEI NEZER that oaths are not lhalacha .

    Here we go :
    AVNEI NEZER YD siman taf nun dalet from se’if katan mem dalet and onwards [pages 287 – 288 – 289]

    in more detail se’if katan nun :

    ‘ … and now it is good and not questionable why rambam [in his halacha sefer mishneh torah] and all poskim did not bring the oaths lahalacha , because those oaths are not lehalacha , because the person himself his body was not commanded to keep the oaths … thats why the poskim did not bring the oaths’

    in short – shitat avnei nezer is that the oaths were said to the shoresh neshama , not to the guf .

    so they are not obligatory lehalacha.

    the guf, if it would be close to the neshama , which is close to HKBH , would instinctively follow the oaths .

    and then merit special close hashgacha from HKBH.

    if for whatever reason the guf does not follow the oaths , that’s a SIGN that the guf is not close and not in sync with its neshama .

    therefore the guf loses its special merit for hashgacha pratit and reverses to a lesser level called hashgacha klalit.

    but this is clear according to AVNEI NEZER – there is no halachik obligation whatsoever resulting from the oaths

    and it is equally clear from his words

    that this is the reason none of the accepted halacha sefarim mention the oaths

    ad kan the summary of divrei the gdol haposkim AVNEI NEZER zatsal.

    after those words of AVNEI NEZER

    it is laughable to claim that the oaths are “undisputed halacha”

    you see , I would not put in such stark language

    I would not call them idolators

    not because I do not see the rationale for doing so

    I perfectly understand the rationale for considering them idolators

    and I personally would be inclined to consider them as such

    but the gdolei haposkim and gdolei harabanim did not go that far

    so since I am not fooling myself as a ma’an de’amar in their presence I defer to their opinion

    that does not mean that are not seriously ‘off the rocker’

    I suspect that even you do not consider then idolaters with full meaning of the word

    since you go there to daven with a minyan

    I seem to remember that a clear idolater is not ra’uy to make up a minyan

    There were two entities who had a problem with the jewish mass return to EY

    the vatican and lehavdil satmar

    both built their worldview on the fact that most yidden are exiled from EY

    and both have a problem

    vatican solved it by refusing official relations with israel for half a century

    but caved in since

    satmar lehavdil is still holding out

    because it is apparently holding that most jews do factually not reside in EY

    you ask for a source that oaths are not lehalacha.

    I do not have the sefer wiyh me now

    If not mistaken AVNEI NEZER end of YD in siman taf nun dalet [454] clearly asks why none of our pillars of halacha bring the oaths in their halacha sefarim.

    and clearly says that the reason is because the oaths are not halacha.

    will bln try to look it up again and give you a more exact quote.

    Re examination of passionately held beliefs should not be cause for a breakdown

    It should be a cause for the heady feeling of freedom and maturity

    a feeling of not being enslaved by previous opinions

    a feeling of openness and willingness to always learn more , know more , and

    grow

    sechel , like the long disappeared menachem , is most probably digesting the new information and re considering his identity

    Sounds like a joke

    We never said its non halachik because it’s in an agadeta gemara .

    This is halacha .

    according to the gmara

    a] j was busy with kishuf , which might explain the so-called wonders he allegedly performed

    and that

    b] j was meisit umediach et yisrael

    a term which normally is used for causing and promoting avoda zara
    .
    .

    gmara does not state which avoda zara

    the only avoda zara from those times we know about , is the belief and worship of j himself

    so , besides j’s kishuf

    and j’s promotion of self worship

    according to the gmara

    he would not be worthy of any punishment

    possibly because he was a shomer torah in all other aspects

    as is documented , if we are to believe this pupil of j , called mathew
    .
    .

    so-
    was j shomer torah ?

    the second gmara you brought, mentions only kishuf and meisit umadiach [promoting to serve a’z ]

    not any other averot – so other mitsvot j kept.

    like the quote of his pupil matew

    stop fighting

    That , and that only, is the Q here.

    The repercussions of the answer to that Q are crystal clear

    If they stop fighting , we all know what is going to happen .

    mass murder [chvsh] ….

    .

    So the Q I posed to you , and

    you ignored it , was

    whether organized self defense to save millions from mass murder

    is mandated , or

    prohibited ?
    .
    .

    you have not answered this very simple question ….

    …. in other words , according to the above

    j was a shomer torah

    but in addition to his proclaimed shmirat mitsvot and professed belief in nits’hiyut hatorah , he was also

    a self proclaimed navi , and

    a self proclaimed messiah who promoted self worship and

    performed so called ‘miracles’ with the power of the samech mem.
    .

    does anyone see similarities ?

    Somejew is – again – not answering

    .

    in a case when the only two options are

    eight million jews massacred [chvsh]

    or

    IDF fighting

    .

    which one is preferable al halacha ?

    and what are your clear proofs for your answer ?

    1] yehoshua b prachya lived much before the historical j we are talking about

    so the j which is our subject was not the talmid discussed in that gmara

    2] the second gmara mentions that j was busy with kishuf , which might explain the so-called wonders he allegedly performed

    and that j was meisit umediach et yisrael

    a term which normally is used for causing and promoting avoda zara

    gmara does not state which avoda zara

    the only avoda zara from those times we know about , is the belief and worship of j himself

    so , besides j’s kishuf

    and j’s promotion of self worship

    he would not be worthy of any punishment

    possibly because he was a shomer torah in all other aspects

    if we are to believe this pupil of j , called mathew

    .
    .
    in other words according to the above

    j was a shomer torah but in addition to his proclaimed shmirat mitsvot and professed belief in nits’hiyut hatorah , he was also

    a self proclaimed navi , a self proclaimed messiah who promoted self worship and performed so called ‘miracles’ with the power of the samech mem.
    .
    .

    I know firsthand of many attempts by xtians to draw on the similarities between the late rebbi of habad and their j ,

    to justify and promote their own dead god
    .
    .

    should habad not take this into consideration before they embark on their roller coaster novel theological experiments

    designed to inflate and overstate their own leader’s importance ???

    the true secret behind katan’s delusional haskafa is the following

    he claims no jew will be harmed even when IDF stops fighting

    which is totally delusional

    and obviously so

    .
    .
    the secret behind it is simple – katan has no skin in the game

    katan holds , and he will not deny this , like his compatriot somejew,

    that when faced with a choice of sure death on one hand , and fighting and surviving on the other ,

    one is OBLIGATED to die , together with his kids ,together with all his grandchildren ,

    together with his neighbors , together with all residents of his street

    together with all mitpallelim in his shul , together with all inhabitants in his city

    together with all residents in the holy land , young and old

    from sucklings to ctizens in old age homes

    .
    .
    so think about this

    what difference does it make whether there is or is not a viable plan to look after yoshvei EY ?

    they do all ‘get on the plane’ or not

    can you safely evacuate 8 million people and their possessions or not

    it all is totally irrelevant anyway…

    fighting as defense is out of the question anyway …
    .
    .
    .
    no wonder katan and somejew could come up with the most ridiculous ideas possible

    it is clear that neither katan nor somejew have no responsibility whatsoever for the well being of yoshvei EY

    they ‘ll readily admit that , they will say : the Z caused the mess so they should clean it up.

    meaning – we have no responsibility for the well being of yoshvei EY

    it is preferable that they die , over active self defense
    .
    .
    .
    it is important to keep this in mind , when engaging with them about possible ‘alternative solutions’ for safety of yoshvei EY ….

    katan is living in lala land

    the problem is that he thinks that he lives on earth

    @somejew

    again I see that you are writing a questionable post

    this time not pertaining to halacha but to

    plain common sense and plain reality


    tunafish writes :

    Fighting in the idf has nothing to do with Zionism and everything to do with pikuach nefesh and protecting jews not the Zionist state.


    you write:

    If any Jews feel their life is at imminent risk, they can simply get into a plane and flee or escape into Jordan or Egypt ….

    The reason for fighting in the IDF is to keep the zionist state in power.

    ====

    so the obvious question which mr somejew is obligated to pose to himself is :

    what in your opinion exactly is going to happen when IDF is stopping to fight ???

    is there going to be pikuach nefesh or not ???

    will eight million jews simply get into a plane ??? — to where , if I may ask ???

    will eight million jews escape in to jordan or egypt ??? — will they safely let eight million jews in ???

    can you , somejew , personally guarantee that nothing will happen to those eight million innocent brothers of yours ???

    ====

    or are you , mr somejew , relying on a certain anonymous maharal here , which supposedly paskans [?] that eight million jews should rather die , better than the IDF should fight ???

    if you , mr somejew are relying on this maharal [or rather on your own understanding of it] and really prefer them dying , over the IDF’s continued fighting ,

    then why don’t you say so clearly ???

    why do you come up with those blatantly unachievable solutions ???

    please ,spell it out

    come on , say the following loud and clear , bepeh malei

    “According to somejew’s understanding , when faced with a choice between

    A] IDF continues to fight, and

    B] eight million jews are massacred

    —————————- we should choose B”
    .
    .

    any further comment seems superfluous ………………….

    lol

    sechels writing on monday does not have to jibe with sechels witing on tuesday

    habads pronouncements in 1980 do not have to jibe with habads pronouncements in 1990 either

    sechel is a good and worthy talmid

    he seems to have absorbed their approach properly

    please think .

    on one hand there is clear halachik imperative to organize self defence begalut

    stretching an unbroken link from gemara, to rambam ,to tur , to shulhan aruch ,to mishne brura

    all , undisputed pillars of halacha for many centuries

    without any holkim whatsoever

    without any other preconditions whatsoever

    if it is pikuach nefesh it should be done.

    period.

    .
    .

    on the other hand you quote a maharal

    without an exact address

    where he is not talking lehalacha

    allegedly saying huge hidushim

    that one is OBLIGATED to suffer certain death , him and his family and the whole of his community

    this is not mentioned anywhere lehalacha in any halacha lema’aseh sefer

    this is not mentioned in hazal when they enumerate the three things one is obligated to offer one’s life for

    not mentioned in rambam’s yad

    not in tur

    not in shulhan aruch

    not in mishna brura
    .
    .

    do you realize the weakness of your position ????
