Zelhar:
Shalom Chaim ,

What is your Opinion about Moshe Montefiore, Baron Edmond de Rothschild, and Baron Maurice (Zvi) de Hirsch ?

Kylefromomaha:
Please say Ymach Shmo to Pastor Jack and Rexella Van Impe. THe Van Impes are pro Muslim and continue to preach that Islam and Muslims are peaceful. Rexella even stared in a music video in Gaza that had Fakestinian children and their spawn. I heard at least one of them grew up to be a terrorist.

what is the origin of the star of David? Years ago when I was living in Maine I found a book in Mardens department store in Calais that said the star of david was a masonic fertility symbol that originated in Babylon. Also what is your opinion of Freemasonry?

Dear Chaim

Shalom Chaim,
A short history excursion:

Long time ago you had a question about Poles and you were repeating, as a matter of fact, a myth about Polish cavalry attacking German tanks with sables. This was a lie created by German Nazi general Guderian and a fascist Italian journalist. This actually never happened. Polish cavalry had participated in pre-war maneuvers with its own armour and was not a 13th century Mongol cavalry dropped into the 20th century.

Here is what happened:  Polish 18th Lancers of the Pomorska Cavalry Brigade successfully attacked German infantry battalion that was resting in a meadow and killed scores of German infantrymen. They attacked Germans on horses (which was not a typical tactic for WWII cavalry) only because Germans were resting and so that Poles utilized surprise and speed to their advantage and killed many Germans. Unfortunately German tanks and APCs (armored personnel carriers), by chance, happened to be hidden in the forest and witnessed this Polish attack. Poles did not know that infantry units that they were attacking were a part of the German 20th Motorised Division. So Germans APC counter-attacked and decimated this brave Polish regiment. Poles tried to escape and not to charge APC on horses. 150 Lancers were killed. Like all Polish army, it is safe to assume that this regiment also had some Jewish soldiers. In a typical German arrogance, Guderian and some journalists made fun of brave Poles by creating this myth that Poles are inferior, reckless sub-human Slaves who attack German armor on horses. This was later used in Nazi propaganda films.

It is an interesting fact that a similar attack occurred in 1944 when Russian T34s massacred German cavalry regiment when Germans tried to break through from an encirclement.

Why I mention this. I think it is an interesting piece of information and also because of what you said in the past Ask JTF show was incorrect. To leave it uncorrected would be unfair to the memory of many Poles and Jews who died that day fighting Nazi beasts.

P.S. Another interesting piece of information: Soviet Union, Romania, Italy and even Germany successfully used cavalry units as a mobile resource. Horses were used as method of delivery infantryman to the field of battles and very rarely in direct cavalry charge.

Dear Chaim.

On one of your programs when you said "The Arebs will push the Jews into the sea and finish his job" What see are you refering to? I know that the arebs can't push them into the Dead Sea because they will float no matter what you can even drive a tank into the Dead Sea. On December 21st can someone post the new JTF early since a Jewish holiday starts on my birthday 12/22 that way I can post my questin by that time? What do you think of the website Wikipedia? PS: Happy birthday on 12/25 and happy holidays for all JTFers! I'll be doing reviews on 12/25 with my Go!Cam and upload them on YouTube not flix sorry Chaim but you can use the YouTube downloader to download my videos. I enjoy lisening to the Ask JTF Programs good work keep it up. Bad News another one of the big three is now needing money from the government bell out plan.
