Dear Chayim,
What do you think the conventional Iranian military can do to Israel?
YESHA:
Shalom Chaim,
Thank you for kindly taking my questions.
How did you feel when you were deprived of a radio outlet to voice your opinions and beliefs? -Zev.
Gimatria:
Dear Chaim,
My question pertains to the Terry Schiavo case. Why were so many people in favor of murdering this poor woman? I can understand why her husband Michael, who was a base, amoral and corrupt philanderer wanted to remove the feeding tube. Likewise, I was not surprised in the media’s slant in the presentation of the case. What did surprise me were the reactions of some people that I regarded as decent, moral individuals. I remember discussing the case with a friend who casually told me that “the plug should be pulled” and that Terry had “no quality of life”.
I reacted very strongly, telling this “friend” (whom I have since stopped associating with) that HIS plug should be pulled, that he should be starved to death and killed, and that he had no “quality of life”. He was shocked by my reaction, telling me I was overreacting and that he couldn’t believe I would say something like that. In fact, when I called him a fascist, he had the nerve to say “As a Jew, I resent that very much”.
I was wondering if you could comment on the Schiavo case, Chaim - and also offer your opinion on the exchange I had with this former friend and so called “Jew”.
Todah Raba,
Gilad
Refuah Shlema to your blessed mother!
Daniel:
Chaim, what are your views on Mordechai Kaplan?

eb22:
Shalom Chaim,
I would like to get your input on a dilemma that I'm having. My Father, who passed away in 1991, had hard core Conservative beliefs. He would have been a natural for JTF and I'm sure that you and him would have had discussions on a VERY high level. My Father had several college degrees, including two in religion.
The dilemma is as follows. My Father believed strongly in only buying American Cars. He wanted me to do the same and encouraged others to do so. Sadly, the vast majority of American cars aren't made well in the present. In addition, I recall an "Ask JTF" program in which you mentioned two of the major U.S. Automakers are aiding America's enemies by their actions. Including a couple of hideous countries in the Middle East that are extremely Anti-Israel as well.
Basically, my question is do you think under the overall circumstances that I mentioned that it's best I buy an American Car in 2008 or 2009, or should I buy a foreign car? Your input is greatly valued by me.
Thanks as always, eb22.
