Hello Brother Chaim
I want your opinion on what do you think about this situation between this Affirmative Action Harvard Gates and the Cambridge police officer Sgt. Crowley, and how Obama stuck his nose in this one? Cause I bet if this happened to a white guy, Obama could care less.

I wanted to discuss what I perceive as a total corruption and perversion of concepts and philosophy regarding Israel. I want to focus on "land for peace". When you discuss the "creation of a PLO/Nazi/Hamas state" you nail it but I think it goes beyond that. Just the equation of land for peace is perverted. It implies that both sides have are equally wrong, the Arabs murder Jewish men, women and children, while the Jews live in disputed land. To equate the two is beyond belief. It implies that until the border dispute is settled, we should expect the Arabs to continue murdering Jews and it is normal and acceptable. What a sick way of looking at things. Only the most self hating apologetic Jews would see it like that. The secular Israelis who came to Israel to supposedly leave behind Jewish timidiy and inferiority have become the most pathetic Alex Portnoys.
The Arabs are saying that they will murder Jews unless they give Arabs land. This is the national version of a robbery of mugging. A bank robber is just a guy offering cash for peace, a mugger merely offers wallet for peace. And the two state solution is equivalent to having a homocidal neighbor who wants to murder you and thinking you can solve the problem by inviting him to live in your spare bedroom and giving him guns.
Also the concept that Israel is too large and needs to give up land is laughable. A good counterpoint to that is expressed in "The Case for a Larger Israel" http://www.alargerisrael.com/Site/Home.html. It is a free online book.
Finally the concept of a magical worship of the pre 1967 borders is like a toxic spill that is leaching its way back into Israel inside the Green Line. While post Zionists might tell you that men who are merely defending themselves like Daniel Pinner and Avri Ran should be persecuted because they are evil settlers the lunacy has spread to men like Shai Dromi being persecuted for defending his ranch, which is inside the Green Line, the acceptance of years of rockets on Sderot wiithout a real response and then finally an inadequate response. An Israel that will sacrifice Jews in Hevron, Gush Katif and the Golan is of the mentality to sacrifice Jews in Haifa and Tel Aviv. (Haifa was allowed to take a pounding during the second Lebanon war. Tel Aviv was supposedly a red line but I don't remember any major response to the Dolphanarium bombing and its horrific carnage in Tel Aviv).

Why is bread and wine so important in judaism. Why do we bless wine and bread in particular?

Hello Chaim,
Some time back I saw a show on TV about Fort Knox. The government almost never allows anyone but essential people to view the vaults or gold stored there. Back during the F.D.R administration many people became convinced that any gold the American Government had stored there was used to pay off government debt and the place was empty. F.D.R issued an executive order that requested the vaults to be opened for viewing by some key politicians as well as himself and some members of the press. At that time the gold was still there and his visit put the issue to bed for some time. My question is.....With the condition of government finances being what they are today if the vaults were opened tomorrow do you think any gold would still be found there? Regards, cjd
