Shalom Chaim,

What is your Opinion of Golda Meir? And do you think it would have been better or worse for Israel if Albert Einstein had accepted the offer to become President?

As always Thank You

Geert Akbar:
Shalom Chaim,

I love listening to the show and always enjoy listening to what you have to say. I recently joined the forum, and finally thought of a few great questions to ask. I have a three part question for you to answer, G-d willing.

1.  If Kahanist ideology were to be dominant in Israeli politics, how do you believe the Western powers would react? The UN? Asian superpowers such as China and India? Arab countries?

2.  Do you use the map of the Twelve Tribes or the map of David and Solomon's Kingdoms to define what is or should be Jewish land?

3.  Upon making Israel a 100% Jewish state, the only way to do so is by expelling the Arabs or using forceful means.  Do you believe nuclear warfare would have to be justified to achieve and defend full Jewish control over Israel?

Thank you and G-d bless,
Diet Dr. Pepper

shalom chaim,


As  a new york residence have you ever encountered groups and sections of the "black hebrew israelites"
with their claims that they are the true chosen people. It's obvious that we as Jtfers or sane humans would disagree and hate their ideology but how would you go about confronting these hateful beast that randomly preach racism in our street corners with no one saying anything about it. Also How much do you know about the cults history and such.

I met a very nice orthodox Sephardi Jew whose parents are from Morocco.

I already know that men are not allowed to shake hands of religious Jewish women.

How can I greet the wife of my religious Jewish friend when I meet both?

Is there a good website, booklet or book where I can learn the etiquette in general when I, as a catholic, meet religious Jews?

Kind regards

davinci

Dear Chaim,

I was doing some reading and it appears that the bar-mitzvah is a cultural phenomenon not mandated by Torah or CHAZAL.  So I wonder, how important is it to have a bar-mitzvah, and is the bar-mitzvah something that is practiced by Jews of every ethnic background?

Thanks,

Zachor_ve_kavod.
