What insight do you have into next week's Parasha (Parashat Korach)?

Gam Bashan veGam Gilad:
Hello Dear Chaim, :)

The following group of questions is basically one question:

  How do you answer stubborn people who say: "Yes, it's true that you have been right all along on every issue, but WHAT IF THIS TIME YOU ARE WRONG?"..  Why do decent people always feel they have to turn over every stone before they have "permission" to act? Why do people tend to play the role of the "psychologist" every time Evil strikes – trying to make excuses for evil, reasoning with evil and rationalizing evil, instead of dealing with it determinedly and instantaneously? How come most people in Western Society accept this kind of sick behavior and find it rather "moral" and "healthy"?


Thank you as always and Shavu'a Tov, :)

Gam Bashan veGam Gil'ad.

Shalom Chaim!

According to Genesis 15:18 the territory of Israel is from Nile to Euphrates.  However Prophet Moses was denied entry to the promised land while he was still within the Nile to Euphrates boundary.  Does it mean  God considers the area west of the river Jordan to the the Mediterranean sea as the "core" part of the promised land?  Is that God's will to possess the core part first and conquer the rest later?
The Torah also states that Prophet Moses expressed his displeasure when the tribes of Reuven, Gad and the half tribe of Manasseh decided to stay to the east of river Jordan.

Can you please explain?

Thanks!

For Zion's Sake,

Chaim,

If "Worshiping Blacks is America's New Religion" (quoting you), why don't righteous gentile politicians use the welfare of the blacks as the rationale for implementing sane policies?  For example,

"We must end illegal immigration, because the influx of low-wage laborers takes jobs from Black Americans, the most vulnerable segment of the population.  The Supreme Court has said that African-Americans are a protected class.  It's time the government started protecting their livelihoods, by closing the border and deporting illegal aliens." 

Another example:

"The burden of high oil prices falls disproportionately on Black Americans.  We must drill domestically, build new nuclear plants, and find alternative sources of energy to relieve this burden, and remove this roadblock in the path of African-American advancement."

What do you think, Chaim?

All the best,
Kalman Ben Menachem
