Chaim ben Pesach's recent comments about Rabbi Avi Weiss in Ask JTF, which show?

[Kahane-Was-Right BT]

Hello everyone.  I remember in one of the shows I downloaded recently, I believe Chaim made some comments about a Rabbi Avi Weiss (I think that was his name), who apparently tried to "protest" the soviet ballet teargassing.   I was wondering if anyone knew which ASK JTF show this was in (from which date) ?   

Is this the same person:   http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avi_Weiss   ?

Seems like someone who has been fighting for Jonathan Pollard and sounds like generally a good person.  Hopefully this is not the same guy that Chaim was referring to.

Very interesting...

About two years ago I went with my Rabbi here to Berkeley and listened to Rabbi Avi Weiss speak. It was shortly after the KSM admissions of guilt which made me very angry... I got upset about something that the Rabbi said and I walked out of his talk... After his talk I approached him and told him my story. He said that I had a right to be upset at the terrorists and I should not forgive them {his speech was about forgiving everyone}.

My Rabbi thinks highly of Avi Weiss... He was called an 'activist' rabbi by my Rabbi. He recently was arrested during a protest of the Iranian dictator speaking at the UN last year. I don't know his feelings toward JTF or Chaim, but I would assume he would stand left of mainstream. I mean that he would support Israel and Aliyah, but would not take the more aggressive stance of JTF which involves relocation, etc...
