Dear Chaim,
After meeting with Bagels (There are no Israeli Arabs) and seeing his dedication and promotion of JTF abroad, I am making him Global Moderator for the Kahanist Dating section.
Now here is my comment for this week.
I would like to clarify that I meant that Jews in different countries got to look different for spiritual reasons. So Moroccan Jews in France look French even though they have only been there for about 50 years. South African Jews seem to appear like the white South African Gentiles for spiritual reasons. What I said doesn't cause people to change race but rather to make them appear to be the nationality they come from. That is why American born Ashkenazic Jews look like white Americans and not like white Eastern Europeans.

I'm posting this for Yacov Menashe.
Up until now, I rely on my parents for financial support for money other than money I saved over the years and that I got from my grandfather when he died which I use when I travel to Israel or if I go places in The United States like New York. I also used that money when I went to community college but this past year I got full state and federal financial aid for the university I go to which is among the cheapest state universities in Pennsylvania (Only about 4,000-5,000 dollars a year compared to my sister who has many loans because went to NYU, and graduated this May.). In the 2007-2008 academic year, I will only get federal aid because there is one class that I took in Spring, 2007 that I will have to take over in the future.

In 1543, Martin Luther wrote, "Jews are a base, whoring people, that is, no people of G-d and their claim of lineage and law must be filth. Their synagogues and schools should be set on fire, their prayer books destroyed, rabbis forbidden to preach, homes razed and property and money confiscated. We are at fault in not slaying them". This is as bad as Mein Kampf, the Nazi Koran and The Protocols Of The Elders Of Zion. Since Protestantism is a voluntarily practiced religion and since the founder of Protestantism has written this in a treatise, a Protestant cannot be a righteous gentile.

Shalom Chaim,
Thank you for the welcome, I really appreciate it. Last week when you were talking about women wearing skimpy clothes are looking for attention, etc. Were you referring only to women who dress like prostitutes, or any woman wearing clothes exposing skin regardless of how long or short (not short like a prostitute, just wanted to clarify) the clothing is?

Shalom Chaim (by the time you are broadcasting this, I'll be in Jerusalem.)
BTW, you can call me Dan, Danny, Dannycookie, Daniel, or Daniyel ben Yitzhak :)
I think you should do a youtube video or two endorsing certain republican candidates such as Tom Tancredo, who said who would bomb Mecca and Medina if another 9/11 attack were to take place. If not that, as you expose candidates like Hitlery and Osma bin Hussein Barak, talk about the candidates who you want to endorse and go into good depth why.
Be well. Talk to you soon.

Thank you for answering my question last week. Did you see the new TV commerical for Verision? A white man is having trouble hooking up his TV to cable. A black man comes in through the window and saves the day. What do you think of these silly commericals that are on our airwaves?

Shalom Chaim,
Is it possible for you to give me some words of inspiration ? The way I feel right now, if I were a doctor, I'd throw the scalpel down , and just give up on the patient ( Israel and America ). The world is upside down, and I don't see it getting any better.

Dearest Chaim, please know I make my observations only because I am a cynical realist experienced with human nature. I have infinite faith in G-d but none in men, Jew or Gentile. In the recent Likud election, Penis Netanyahoo (ys"vz) got 75% of the vote and Moishe Feiglin, the true Kahanist, only 25%. That simple result seems to support my general hypothesis about Israelis. That being said, even though we do differ on the character of most Israelis, I completely agree we should do all we possibly can to win them over before we write them off.
PS: The war with Dominater and Tzvi is over. From here on out I will only discuss these things in private with you and the mods.
G-d bless you forever, Chaimfan

Dear Chaim,
I know you keep saying that we need to become a mass movement on a crash basis, but based on the number of JTF recruits today, how long do you think it would take us to become a mass movement?
Thanks

Hello Chaim,
Over the weekend I went to the Cemetary where both my grandparents are buried to add new flowers and clean all the old leaves and litter around. I use to remember my grandfather telling me how he and his wife (my grandmother) came from Italy with the dream to be Americans in the 30s. The Italian families around NY were simular, their grandparents came with the need to build a new life and raise a family. They left their old world behind in the dream of being Americans and it was unheard of even during the tough times to get any welfare, they thought it was embarrasing and shamefull. Things have changed dramatically, now you got the Illegal vermin sneaking through and they have no interenst being Americans, they spit on the flag, burn the flag. And now we had this case of an illegal from Peru that show 3 people in NJ point blank in the head. It has changed and our leaders do not see anything wrong with this picture? The days of my grandparents to now. What a difference?

Shalom Chaim and Thank you as always for your hard work and answering my questions.
Just how close do you believe the relationship between Syria and Iran really is? Syria has a Sunni majority, but their rulers are Alawi Shiites who are Baathists. It appears to Iran that Syria is just a buffer against Israel, whose only purpose is to cause Israel to be distracted with a threat from the Golan Heights, while Iran plans for bigger things. Do you believe a conventional invasion from Syria is a real threat to Israel?

Dear Chaim:
I am posting this on behalf of Chiamfan with whom I have a problem:
"This comment is about Yephora. I really don't think we should grovel for the return of a member who didn't have what it took to stick it out. She might have agreed with us, but wasn't a committed Kahanist. What would you say to DownwithIslam and I if we left because of Dominater and Thunderbolt? Nobody flamed Yephora and for her to abandon the movement because she was offended by the rantings of a deranged nut gives me great reason to question her ability to be loyal. Thanks, Chaimfan."

Shalom Chaim, Just summerize.
I had a friend that was a mulatto woman. She has since not wanted to talk to me because of this. An Arab man had tried to fight her. This was because the Arab was blocking her friends car. He came back threating her and her other friend. I was not going to tollerate this and called him an F'ing Arab. Now this friend of mine who I wasted three years on defended him instead of me. Saying I was racist and discriminatory. He was going to attack her. I dont know what to think of this. As a matter of fact she is a soldier in the Army. What is your take on this? I have now confirmed 99.9% of Blacks stab you in the back. Including the ones mixed with White. I am not concerned anyway now, she lost a good friend and I am going to Israel by may.
Hope to see you there too. Thanks for your wisdom

Hey Chaim,
Thanks for answering my question last week, I'd like to further explain my logic behind the idea of taking muslims to re-education camps, firstly, if I were in government, the government would make sure that everyone knew the truth about Islam, therefore hopefully, the people would not oppose the idea of taking the muslims to camps.
The problem with sending them to muslim countries is that if they are all together and with no-one keeping checks on them they can prepare to harm us. Even if the arab muslims are generally unintelligent, what about white converts to islam, or indian muslims? They would eventually be attacking us. The other problem is that some muslims could potentially leave islam, the camps would give them far more of a chance to do that than sending them off to muslim countries where they can be killed for questioning islam.
Regarding the issue of making sure they had left islam before leaving the camp, it would be quite simple, we would require them to smile while burning a quran.
Considering these points, surely re-education camps couls be a good solution to the islamic problem?
Thanks for your time,
Shalom

Shalom Chaim,
(Im not saying we should give up any land), but lets say if we knew that if Israeli troops and Jews withdraw from parts on the "westbank" it would lead to an arab vs. arab bloodbath (hamas and fatah), would it be worth it, if only temporarily , I can say that after the withdrawel from Gaza, G-d did provide a little bit of happiness for me- watching Hamas and Fatah kill eachother. Too bad their werent many, many more dead arabs at the conclusion of their fighting.

שלום חיים, ראשית אני רוצה לומר שהאני היומיומי הזה מקווה שאתה תנתן לתוך ישראל מאוד בקרוב.
עכשיו לשאלה שלי, שאני תקווה לא יותר מדי אישית. תהיתי איך אתה תתמוך בעצמך באופן כספי כאשר אתה תזוז לישראל. הכל כ/כפי יקר או אפילו יותר יקר בישראל. תהיתי איך אתה היית מצליח להיות בעל הכנסה בזמן שאקטיביסטית. תודה כ"כ הרבה וההכי טוב של מזל.

Dear Chaim,
I admire and respect you greatly, but I would like to take issue with your defence of polygamy. Sorry for the long comment.
1) No sane and self-respecting woman would think that sharing a husband with another woman is justice. It is a great injustice and offence to a woman's dignity. Try to imagine yourself sharing a wife with other men, and you would know how a woman would feel. Women have the same feelings as men.
2) Given that there is about an equal number of men and women, introducing polygamy would leave many men without a wife, which is an injustice to men, as well. Polygamy would not increase the population, because you would lose the potential children of the men who are now left without mates.
3) I am not aware of any Torah commandment that orders polygamy (am I wrong?), so the Jewish state without polygamy would not break G-s' laws.
4) The fact that the Patriarchs had several wives is not a sufficient reason, in my opinion, to re-introduce the practice. You yourself said that our illustrious ancestors, great as they were, were not automatically blameless in everthing they did. Even they erred occasionally. There might have been historical reasons back then which made polygamy defensible. I don't see such reasons today.
Chaim, even if you poll the opinions of very conservative women who believe in traditional values, including those who write to this forum, you will see that they are strongly against polygamy. Women don't want the return of polygamy. You can force it by law, but I doubt that you will be able to come up with an argument that will make it attractive to women. Why advocate a parctice that is not mandated by the Torah and will alienate half of the population? If you continue to support it, I hope you will do some soul-seraching and convince yourself that polygamy is consistent with the spirit of righteousness, justice, and equal respect for human dignity that permeates our Great Book.

Shalom Chaim,
I have a big question here. I just watched your YouTube video "A Rightwing Revolution is Needed." While I agree with what you had to say, there was one thing that bothered me.
The biggest thing is this: If we have the U.S. National Guard going door to door, or even cops going door to door to take names, trying to get Illegal aliens out etc. Depending on who is in power, because U.S. law is based on precedent, Don't you believe that it could, in fact, be used against anyone who disagrees with the government at all? It sounds all too much like an abuse of power would be possible here.

Shalom Chaim,
This is my first question to you so a short introduction is in order. I am a Greek Orthodox Christian who grew up in Queens and currently live on Long Island. My first exposure to Rabbi Meir Kahane was during an interview he gave on the Bob Grant show a long time ago (maybe 1984). I immediately agreed with his message and later discovered the JTF broadcasts on Queens public access, which I began watching over 12 years ago. I continued to listen to the programs on the web after moving to the island.
My question deals with the names of G-d. I have noticed that G-d is spoken but never written or printed. However Hashem is both spoken, written and printed and I believe there are other names for G-d that cannot be spoken. Can you please elaborate on the differences and reasons between the spoken and written names of G-d in Judaism.
Thank you.

Dear Chaim:
With all due respect, I agree with Masha's post. Even though I am conservative and right wing, I am against polygamy. In Genesis, it says a man shall leave his mother and father and cleave unto his *wife,* not "wives."
So can you please elaborate (beside the fact that the Patriarchs and kings practiced it) on why you think it would be beneficial to Jews to revive that practice, as well as where the Torah/Talmud says men are *supposed* to have more than one wife?
As I see it, polygamy caused many dysfunctional families in the Bible. Take for example Isaac, Ishmael, Joseph being sold into slavery by his brothers, Reuben having sex with Jacob's concubine, Absalom having sex with King David's concubines, etc.
Finally, why do you think that polygamy was outlawed by the rabbis?
Thank you, as always.

Do you think that Alan Keyes, Roy Innis, and the other few blacks that you support and speak favorably of would agree with your assessment that blacks like them are the exception and are one in a million?

This will be very hard to understand and may seem that I am against G-d, but of course I'm not. I know G-d understands what I'm about to ask. Why do we hate the nazis and hitler for the murder of 6 million jews? Why do we hate the ancient egyptians and pharoah for the slavery and murder of jews when all this is a punishments from G-d to the jews? If G-d punished us, and created people like hitler and the pharaoh to put jews in salvery and and death camps why do we hate them for what they did and not just accept it as a punishment from G-d instead?
Again, of course I am not against G-d, nor would I ever forgive nor forget the massacre that occurred in our history, but these are just questions that should be answered.

Dear Chaim,
Could you tell me a bit about Israel's policies towards Israeli Kahanists. What is legal and illegal there in regard to Kahanism as far as meeting,demonstrations etc. I am asking this question for an Israeli friend who very much sympathizes with the ideals of Rabbi Kahane but doesn't want to get into any sort of legal trouble.
Thank you very much for answering my question,

Dear Chaim,
I enjoy every minute of your weekly audio and video broadcasts; however I have a suggestion on how to improve the overall system.
Let’s say, there is a certain number of subjects on which you do your videos: Israel, Illegal Aliens, Muslim Terrorism etc.
You also answer a lot of golden questions every week on Ask JTF shows that can be apportioned to one of the above subjects.
Why won’t we then open separate threads on the forum that would be called:
“Ask JTF: Israel”, “Ask JTF: Muslim Terrorism” etc., and you would make your weekly youtube videos based on questions placed under each subject separately.
It will have two great benefits:
1) It will make your videos more interactive, and thus more attractive to visitors, who would be more interested to register on the forum and ask questions;
2) It would obligate those JTF members who ask questions to go to the respective youtube videos more frequently and thus increase the ranking.
Please let me know what you think.
Reverences.

Hello Dear Chaim,
Hope all is well. I am excited about your aliyah chances and G-d willing soon will be the time. This week I would like to ask you about the Bible reference "G-d will bless those that bless thee and curse those that curse thee'" one of my favorites that JTF has often sited. Of course I don't want to question G-d's wisdom as I know he has an eternal plan, but I was wondering if, up to this point in time, you believe Israel's enemies have been sufficiently cursed. Yes, we have seen turmoil in Arab Muslim Nazi lands and seen the fall of the evil German Nazis themselves, but at the same time one could make the argument that many Arab lands have thrived off of the presence of oil and Germany has rebuilt itself into one of the most prosperous countries in Europe. Is the day of G-d's reckoning still coming for these beasts, perhaps in the near future? Until next week, G-d willing, thanks for all your efforts and wisdom. All the best.

I'm in Morocco for a couple of weeks and so far it has been fine. The people here are not evil, maybe stupid and oblivious to the rest of the world...but definitly not evil.
Islam is clashing with culture and Morocco is slowly succumbing to the modern western way of life.
Have a good week G-d Willing and I wish you the best of luck regarding your recent application to move to Israel.

Shalom Chaim,
I think the archived JTF articles were excellently written. I think you should consider compiling those articles into a book. We could all help update any content if necessary and if you'd want to add more, some content would be able to be written up from You Tube videos.
In addition to people being able to learn from the book, you would also be able to make some revenue from it. I don't know much about finding a publisher but the Rav Kahane had his books published. So I think it's possible. Furthermore, I think a published book would make it easier for you to get on televised and radio media sources.

Chaim,
Can you please respond to this? It is a video posted by Drinking With Bob on youtube and is also aired on QPTV. I would like to post your response on youtube. Hopefully as a response to this video if he accepts it.
"What's next, I'll tell you what's next. You're gonna love this. There is a Muslim school opening up in Brooklyn in one month. You know who's paying for this? You are. The tax payer. This is wrong on so many levels, but number one separation of church and state. When I was a kid, my parents wanted me to go to Catholic School. You know who paid for me to go to Catholic School? My parents did. Why? The government said 'We will not use tax payer money for anything to do with religion.' I guess that's changed. On top of this, a group affiliated with this Muslim school put out a shirt that said 'Infidad NYC'. In short terms, that means uprising, or war in New York City. It was the original term for the Palest*****/Israeli conflict. Ok. It was a call for Palest*****s to go into Israel and blow up busses and blow up pizza places. The day it came out, the principal of this tax payer funded Muslim school said 'Oh no, it doesn't mean anything. It's just a way for the students to adopt in New York City society.' Less than eight hours later this same principal came out and condemned this shirt. Why? She knew exactly what it freaken meant. This country is out of control people. We have illegal immigrants coming in every day. Our infrastructure is collapsing around us. And now we have a tax payer funded Muslim School in New York City calling for war. What is it going to take for you people to wake up and see what is going on? What's next? What's next? What's next? "

I was purchasing the book "The story of the Jewish Defense League" on Amazon and I noticed another slanderous book in the links called "Rookie Cop" by Richard Rosenthal. I'm sure you may have mentioned him before but I never made the association. Who is this idiot and did you ever run into him?

Dear Chaim,
I noticed that on the JTF.org site, the articles are repeats mostly.
I certainly understand that you may be too busy to write new ones all the time, so I was wondering if you would accept articles written by myself or other JTFers?
