Ask JTF For March 11 Broadcast
Trumpeldor:
Dear Chaim
1. I was hoping you could clear something up for me on T.E. Lawrence, i.e. Lawrence of Arabia. I always thought he was evil for inspiring the Arabs to revolt against the Ottomans and for admiring Arab culture. He was also rumored to be a homosexual.
However, esteemed historian Sir Martin Gilbert recently proclaims that Lawrence was a "serious Zionist" who believed in a "Jewish state from the Mediterranean shore to the River Jordan". Gilbert has a book coming out about this using records from Britain's National Archive.
"Lawrence had a sort of contempt for the Arabs, actually. He felt that only with a Jewish state would the Arabs make anything of themselves."
Boy was he wrong!
Anyway, even if Gilbert's work is sound, this man is really no more than a pseudo-Zionist like Winston Churchill or for that matter Chaim Weizmann.
2. What's the story with Itamar Ben-Gvir and Ronny? Can you please clarify some of the points you were making on the Hebrew 'ask JTF'? I didn't quite grasp everything you were saying.
cosmokramer:
Hello Chaim, Just answer if needed I know you are pressed for time,
One: What do you think of the national radio host Michael Medved? I believe him to be a wimp and a pro-black, pro-moslem Jew. He does make some good points, but in all he is a coward. BTW he live in a suburb of Seattle called Mercer Island.
What do you think of this, Our county logo, This is in King County, Wa mind you, Is being changed from a crown to the face of MLK. I think this is the ultimate in affirmative action moves. Originally this County was named after Franklin Pierce's Vice President William Rufus King. Have incidents like this happened in NYC? Imagine on all the County Sheriff, Fire and Ambulances with his ugly babboon face on the side. Would you want to be saved by a County Ambulance with his face on it? I dont think I do. The old logo is on this post. It doenst surprise me though because the County executive is a Schvartze name Ron Sims. This is my wake up call to do what my other friends are doing and leave this state altogether. Here is the link if you want to see what they are doing for yourself.

Hang them in the streets.
Maccabi:
what is your opinion of Roman culture?
do you find any wisdom in maxims?
I personally find them entertaining and they seem to have some truth.
How about Greek philosophers like Aristotle?
What about stuff like Machiavelli?
Do you think it is a contradiction to study Torah and worldly sources, writings created by men and to hold them with any regard?
Are there any writers or philosophers that you like?
