Ben Yehuda:
Dear Chaim,

I have observed that Judaism seems to be very weak at proselytizing and conversion of non-Jews to our beliefs, contrary to Christianity and Islam. Can you comment on this phenomenon and what you think could/should be done?

Thank you for all your work on behalf of our people.

YESHA:
Shalom Chaim,
     More Chaim with permission - for your thoughts on Chief British Rabbit, Dr. Jonathan Sacks’s views - from his new book.  He argues that he is not politically correct! and says, even more absurdly, that Jews have many friends who will “fight for us” (heh heh!), such as Muslims!!   
     Finally Sacks suggests Jews not hate the anti-semite, as hating doesn’t allow us to be “truly free” – we should “let go of hate” – like the Torah tells us, he says, not to hate the Egyptians who enslaved us!
      Anti-semitism is denying a Jewish state when Muslims have 52 countries, Christians 82 countries – but one Jewish country is too many – that’s where I would agree with him only.
ZEV

Hillary Sodom Clinton and Barack Hussein Osama are both evil and both have good chances of winning.
John little-pants Edwards is evil and has little chance of winning. He also would not be a challenge for Republicans.
I think we should endorse John Edwards for Democrats.
I'm not up to date with jtf material, so this may have already been said.

Mstislav:
Shalom Chaim,
I hope you are doing well, it has been awhile and I have been out of the loop as I have been really busy. My question to you is:
if islam did not teach Jew hatred and was not after Jewish blood but after the blood of everyone else like it currently is now, what would JTF's position on islam be?

Thank you for your time,
Mstislav

Me:
Dear Chaim,
  Do you have any tips or suggestions on what I can say to my classmates(I'm a senior in high school) in order to convince them of how serious the situation we are in really is?  Even though I would call them conservative, they just seem to be apathetic more than anything.
