Ask JTF For September 17 Broadcast
MasterWolf1:
Hello Chaim,
I had watched this past week the television movie "Path to 9/11" and was wondering if you saw the film. If you didn't it was about in a nutshell it had to also do with FBI agent John O"Niel as you may know he too died in the collapsing of the Twin Towers yet he was a very vocal person prior to 9/11. All of a sudden we are getting movies after movies about 9/11, and each year I hear the word "memorial" of Sept. 11. And yes as well as we should remember, My question is what is the point of remembering when we don't act upon the real way instead of this game with the Arab and Muslims trying to "distict" who is the good one who is the bad one? If Islam has its way we would all be dead every single one of us. How come no one in our media, in our Government whether Republican or Democrat seem to get with it and realize by playing nice with Islamics that their only goal is to wipe out every infidel off the face of the Earth? What is the point of remembering 9/11 if we do not take our role in protecting our selves and our people seriously?

What happened to the jocular no-holds-barred Englishman who used to speak with Vancier?
Is he still alive?

Hi Chaim,
Great job as always. Hope all is well. This week I would like to ask your opinion on how secular Jews could best reconnect to their religion. As you mentioned, most American Jews are not very religious. I must admit I fall into this category even though my father is from Israel (actually Egypt orginially like your father). I was raised as a Conservative Jew and did go to Hebrew School through my Bar Mitzvah. Unfortunately, as the years went by, however, I began to lose touch even though I have always remained a very proud Jew culturally and always fought against anti-semitism in any form. I did try to join Hillel in college, but I was put off by the liberal atmosphere the campus organization fostered and the fact that all they seemed to talk about was the nature of tolerance and the Holoucaust, rather than taking a more proactive approach. I am now approacing 30 and would like to become more religious as I enter the next stage of my life. Any advice would be appreciated.
If you have time, I would also like to ask you about the best way to promote JTF offline, in addition to posting to message boards online. What do you think about flyers, visting religious organizations, college campuses and radio stations, and perhaps selling some merchandise to raise funds? I also think JTF supporters should call into radio or television shows, and try to slip in the JTF website, whenever they see Jewish or Israeli issues discussed in the media. This should help spread the word. Thanks and all the best.
Ari

Chaim,
What is your opinion of Bob Dylan? His new album just came out, and he's on a bunch of ipod commercials now. Considering his early pro-civil rights, pro-communist protest songs, his conversion to Christianity and his later conversion back to Judaism, do you consider him to be a righteous Jew?
Thanks,
Patches

Thank you for answering my previous questions Chaim – I have another one for this weeks show: What should be done about the pro-Arab ant-Israeli news media in U.K., U.S. etc. they portray a one-sidedness and are far-left and seem to be very sympathetic to the Arab side with phone ins and reports. In London a vicious filthy-stinking low-life more-on, George Galloway Y’’sh has a radio show – http://www.talksport.net – 8-10p.m. Saturday and Sunday [, I of course don’t listen to that ’Shabbat’ show or the Sunday show for that matter].
He is more pro-so-called “Palestinian” than those Arabs in Hamas-stan - he is an MP and is so radical-socialist anti-Israel leftist - I wish and hope he is assassinated. He has this powerful voice and is famous for his strong anti-Israel rants and vicious attacks on Israel, America, callers and centrist media- what exists in the U.K. WHAT’S TO BE DONE?
TODAH RABAH CHAIM – you should live ‘biz a haundraed in tzvantzig’ – ‘ad maeya ve’esrim’…
