Shalom Chaim,

When Judaism speaks of "An eye for an eye.....", revenge is the concept that is extracted. However why isn't it considered the same thing as Justice and thought to mean that? Justice, means a trial, punishment and your own back for example, with compensation or any other penalty lawful by religion......thats kind of equal to revenge isn't?. I believe the idea of revenge, that most people consider, of hating the enemy expressed through violence or just speech, is silly because it just creates a vicious circle. One person is killed then due to revenge everybody else dies too and nothing is solved or at peace.

Thank You.

Shalom Chaim,
Do you think that we should rely on Jews before we rely on Gentiles? Do you feel that we must trust ourselves before outsiders? Rav Kahane had Jews that cared defend Jews who didnt, do you agree with this policy, and if not, why not?

Thank you,
Nolandforshalom

Kiwi:
Dear Chaim,

My question is this, should Jewish Task Force support mentally ill people carrying guns? And not have a balanced view on self defence?

I am sorry once again I will not know you answer, hopefully someone will tell me. I am very restricted on any video or MP3 format.

Be well, and thank you.

Shalom Chaim,

I heard what you staid about Churchill being as bad as Hitler and i have to say that i disagree...

First of all you spoke of how the British military sunk jews on ships bound for Israel, and while that did happen it was not Churchill that gave those orders.. He very much wanted the jews to live in Israel and later down the track his actions proved this.

Secondly, you made a sweeping statement about how Churchill refused to bomb the railroad lines leading to the death camps. At what point of the war were you referring to, remembering they only had access to those areas you speak of until 1944/1945.. and fighter planes back then could only travel a small distance before having to refuel.

Chaim i know you mean well but the point to be remembered is that Churchill did control every facet of the political arena in Britain which at the time i agree was vehemently anti-semetic but when he was given the chance to put things right by the jews he did...


P.S Are there sources of Information that agree with your rough analysis on Churchill as bad a Hitler ?

From, Sergio

Daniel:
Lately, I have heard and read about this so called "Khazar theory" which states that Ashkenazi Jews are primarily descended from Khazarian converts to Judaism and that we're not really descended from the original ancient Israelite tribes. I find this notion absolutely preposterous on its face and find it completely offensive and see this as nothing more as neo-Nazi and black supremacist propaganda that was manufactured for the sole purpose of invalidating Zionism. What do you know about this topic and can you share with us the origin and motivation behind this theory? Thanks.

Daniel
