Tonni:
1. Nazis claim that in the Lavon affair Israel tried and failed to blow up American targets. Would you explain what really happened in the Lavon affair?

2. You said that the Iranians want their government because the ayatollahs always get elected and the Iranians have had fair elections. The Iranians don't have fair elections because the council of guardians chooses who is allowed to run for election. Not to mention that a "president" and their parliament have no real power. The council of guardians and the supreme leader Khamenei have all the power. Why do you think Iran has fair elections and how do you know Iranians want their government?

IsraeliGovtAreKapos:
Chaim, how do you reject a girl you really want but can't have? eg. if our parents will kill us if we ever come close to each other.

christians4jews:
hey chaim can you give us a affirmative action story involving a mongolian astranaut, and what he said on mars?? No seriously, thats not my question. I agree with you on pretty much most points, and i have to say chaim, i plagerise alot of your arguements ,as they are so well put.

Could you tell me in your usual concise manner...

1) why do you think michael jackson is a paedophile.

2) Asides from the bible, whats arguement would you give to a non religous person that abortion is wrong.


Perhaps someone can make videos of these...thanks...

Shalom Chaim,

Is hunting allowed in Judaism? I am not talking about if you have to survive in the wilderness and have no other choice but to hunt. I am referring to recreational hunting, deer hunting or duck hunting for instance. I assume that meat from a hunted deer is not Kosher because it was not slaughtered with a knife by the proper religious authorities. But is a Jew allowed to shoot a deer, and then give the meat to a Gentile friend to eat? Since the Jew will not be eating the meat at all, is it okay for him to hunt deer in this circumstance? Around here, there is an overpopulation of deer so that the deer wind up getting in the roads and posing a great danger to drivers. In this situation it seems that it would be a mitzvah to shoot them, to help control the population.

Similarly, what is the kosher law for fish that you catch yourself. If you catch a fish and decide to keep it and eat it, the fish will obviously die once it's out of the water. Is there some blessing that should be performed in this situation? I would like to honor the fish in some way, if I am going to kill and eat it. Since the Israelites were fishermen since time immemorial, I would imagine there is some blessing or ritual related to this.

Fighting For Truth:
Shalom Chaim,
Is there such thing as a Jewish Atheist? Some of these people who leave Judaism and become Atheists say they are Jewish Atheists. I really don't get it.

Anyways thank you and take care.
