PS- Savage is crying his guts out that Beck is not standing up for his ban in Uk. Justice is being served to Savage for never yelling at Israel for you.
Dan Ben Noah:
Shalom Chaim,
If you were currently Prime Minister of Israel, how would you have responded to South African Archbishop Desmond Tutu who recently said that the Arabs are paying the price for the Holocaust, that his positions are derived from Torah because G-d is always in favor of the "oppressed", that the weekly "nonviolent" protests in Bil'in are praiseworthy and comparable to Ghandi, and that Israeli society needs to evolve? Thanks in advance.
Respectfully,
Dan ben Noah
Manch:
Shalom Chaim,
As you read it, I will be in Israel and will pray that you'll be here too, soon!
I disagree with your seeming disdain for one of the greatest Jewish heroes - Simon Bar Kochba, ZT"L! To me, a story about Rabbi Elazar sounds like a "bobishe maisy" wrote in Talmud to somehow explain disaster befallen on Jewish people. Even if I suspend my disbelief for a moment - how does this justify Jewish babies fed to animals by Romans, Jewish fighters nailed to the cross, Jewish women sold as sex slave, Holocaust, mass murder of crusade, etc, etc. Does it require millions upon millions of innocent Jewish souls to atone for Bar Kochba mistake?! Sorry - I don't accept it!

Shalom Chaim
Buddha, the founder of Buddhism, lived from 563 B.C.E. until 483 B.C.E..
After he reached Enlightenment at the age of 35 he dedicated his life showing how other people can reach this spiritual level, too.
My questions:
1. Do you consider him to be righteous?
2. What do you think of European or American Christians and atheists who follow this religion? My impression is that it doesn't fit very well into European or American thinking.
Regards
davinci
