Serbian Canadian:
Hello Chaim.

What is your opinion on New York Times columnist Thomas Friedman? People say he's a right-winger and pro-Israel. He's won the Pulter Prize three times. He was named by U.S. News & World Report as "one of America's best leaders". This is what he wrote in the New York Times on April 7, 1999 during the NATO bombing of Yugoslavia:

"Like it or not, we are at war with the Serbian nation (the Serbs certainly think so), and the stakes have to be very clear: Every week you ravage Kosovo is another decade we will set your country back by pulverizing you. You want 1950? We can do 1950. You want 1389? We can do 1389 too."

Mishmaat:
What initiatives would you take to introduce true free-market capitalism in Israel?

Shavu'a tov.

Daniel:
Last week, you were making the point about how 80 year old women should not care about the issue of abortion since they are clearly not going to have any babies. If that's the case, then can't someone flip that around on you and ask you why you should have cared so much about Soviet Jewry when you were not in the Soviet Union. If your response is that those are your people and that their fight is our fight, then why can't 80 year old women make that same argument about other women?

Also, why should you care about the issue of homosexuality when someone's choice on how they lead their own personal lifestyle has no impact on you?

Maimonides:
Shalom Chaim and Thank you as always for you hard work and for answering my questions.

In the past you have said that as long as Bibi Netanyahu is the Prime Minister of Israel and Obama is the President of the U.S. that Iran will not be attacked, because Bibi will not do anything without the approval of the U.S. It appears as Iran has now been able to enrich Uranium at 20%, it will soon be able to create weapons grade uranium. Does this mean Iran will likely develop nuclear weapons?

✡ Hindu Zionist ॐ:
Shalom Chaim,

There has been complete silence by western media on mastermind of 26/11 Mumbai strike David Headley whos Muslim name is Daood Gilani. Although he is in FBI custody, no amount of western media is publishing any news regarding the trial. This is absolutely shocking, considering westerners and jews have themself been targets. It is this terrorist who surveyd Chabad House and even masqueraded as Jew while living in the city to plan the attacks. And those media which are reporting it, are stating the terrorist as "American National" instead of Muslim or Pakistani. What do you think of all this? Why such silence over aftermath of an attack which was internationally sensationalised.

Thank You
