Ask JTF for Sunday, December 7, 2008.

<< < (7/7)

Noar HaGvaot:
Do you feel that their is any possibility that Columbus or some of his crew were Jews escaping the Spanish Inquisition?

Minuteman:
Dear Chaim,

If there had been a Kahanist government in Israel around the time of the U.S. Civil War, how would that government responded to the war, and are there any actions that would have been taken?

God Bless America, Israel, and the West.

Minuteman

imaknick:
Who do you blame more for the nazi atrocities?  Germans, Europeans, United States, FDR, Churchill, or Jews.

Masha:
Jews were expelled from Spain in 1492. And this date also ushered in the beginning of the Golden Age in Spain. Chaim, why do you think that G-d refused to punish the Spaniards for what they did to the Jews? He even appeared to "reward" them by allowing Spain to have the greatest and most prosperous period in its history, the Spanish Golden Age. Doesn't the Torah say "I'll bless them who bless you and curse them who curse you?" Thanks for your thoughts.
