Shalom Chaim,
What is your opinion on the amish people?
Gam Bashan veGam Gilad:
Hello Dear Chaim, (:
What is your opinion about Fidel Castro, and what is he out to gain by all of his latest appearances in the media?
Thank you as always and Shavu'a Tov, :)
Gam Bashan veGam Gil'ad.
Kahane-Was-Right BT:
Dear Chaim,
I believe you mentioned previously that ideally the Sanhedrin would be reconstituted when JTF takes power in Israel. I was wondering if you could comment more on the importance of this momentous act, and how it is essential to Jewish national life.
Also, there are some tremendous Torah scholars who are undoubtedly knowledgeable enough in the tenets of Jewish law and qualified to sit on such a Sanhedrin, but they will likely oppose its reconstitution and sit on the sidelines for hashkafic reasons, due to their very myopic vision of Judaism. This is caused by Judaism's modern-day dilution and the loss of national relevance in the eyes of many rabbis including even great scholars. How will the anticipated opposition of such great scholars affect the credibility and authority of the new body especially when lesser scholars (but more rational and sensible and with the more logical vision of national Judaism) will be sitting in their place as members of the new body, and many of the followers of the abstaining scholars may flaunt disobedience to the new Sanhedrin because of their "rebbes' " disagreement?
Thanks and G-d bless you.

Shalom aleichem Achi its great to be back after 21 months I'm back. For these months Baruch Hashem i became more religious. I wanted to use my old user name but for some reason it didn't allow me to login. Anyways hows it been going? how are you Chaim? how is JTF? What can we do to make JTF bigger and greater worldwide?
Maimonides:
Shalom Chaim and Thank you as always for your hard work and for answering my questions.
What do you predict will happen in Egypt when Hosni Mubarak dies? Do you believe the Muslim Brotherhood will take power and officially renege the 1978 Camp David so-called "peace accords", and declare outright war with Israel?
