Herutnik:
Shalom brother Chaim, ma shlomcha?

1. What are your thoughts on attorney Yoram Sheftel? you probably recall that i posted on the hebrew forum that you were mentioned and disscused on his radio show. he seemed to know who you are, and he supported your Alyiah.
I barely ever listen to radio, but I do tune in to his show sometimes, because it's the only patriotic show on israeli radio. But i don't like the fact that he was John Demjanjuk's attorney, even though he has some very convincing statments and proof that he's not 'Ivan The Terrible' (YS"V) from Treblinka and therfore not guilty. but if I were in his shoes, I still wouldn't dream of representing somone who has even the slightist chance of being a nazi murderer and I guess that's the only major problem i have with him. Other then that, I guess he's okay.

2.(A related question) is there anyone worth mentioning in your opinion in the american media? considiring the fact, that the american media doesn't have such an overwhelming leftist monopoly like we have in israel.

3. What is your opinion on this burning the Quran controversy? do you think it would've helped? or will something like this just backfire and represent muslims as "victims"?
I think we shouldn't support this, especialy because the "Godhatesfags" lunatics (that i've heard so much about) support this as well. And it's hard for me to imagine anyone worse to be affiliated with.

4. I've recently finished reading the Quran (translated by muslims) and there's something that i have a very hard time understanding about islam or about the people who practice this religion.
As you know, according to islam all the prophets that are known as jewish (including Jesus) were all muslims. Now, aside from all the hate, violence and anti-semitism in the Quran, there was one verse that caught my eye and that's Surah 2:136. According to that verse, muslims are not allowed to make any distinction between one prophet and another and therfore they're all equal. That being the case, how come muslims are so outraged only when the child molester Muhhamad is showing up in cartoons? I mean if they truly believe what the Quran says, why aren't they outraged every time Jesus or Moses shows up in an offensive way on some caricature or cartoon, which happens every other day? Don't you think that's a good question to ask a muslim? maybe you have the answer to this question?
Anyway, the bottom line is that the muslims are probably not in the least bit offended from drawings of Muhhammad, they only seem to try their best to be "offended" in order to have a bad excuse for riots and jihad. Either that, or their knowlege on islam is on the same level of their knowlage in science. And because im talking about muslims here that many of them memorize the Quran and know more about it than i do, then I believe the first option is more likely to be true. Your comments please.

Shalom Chaim,

I recently read a wikipedia article on the "Golden Age of Jewish Culture In Spain," a time during Muslim control of the Iberian Peninsula when Jews supposedly lived in relative harmony with Muslims, and "Jewish religious, cultural, and economic life blossomed." Here is the link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_age_of_Jewish_culture_in_Spain

Do you think there is truth to this, or just some more BS made up by historians?

Thanks as always,
Patches

Even if it's not antisemetic or Zionist, do you think white nationalism can be scary at times.

Shalom Chaim,

My questions relate to Tuesday's NY State Primaries.

1)   Who do you prefer in the New York U.S. Senate Republican Primary between Gary Berntsen and Jay Townsend?    I realize Schmuck Schumer will be very difficult to unseat in the General Election,  barring a miracle from G-d.     Yet,  input in the Primary decision making process would be appreciated.

2)    Do you have an opinion on the NY 4th Congressional District Republican Primary Race in Nassau County between Fran Becker,   Frank Scaturro ,  and Dan Maloney?     While my enthusiasm for the choices remains luke warm,    I will probably vote for Fran Becker because of his charity work with an organization  (  AHRC Nassau ) that I support and because of Conservative Blogger Raquel Okyay's endorsement of him.     The only thing that might change my decision is some significant information you provide that  I'm not currently aware of regarding these candidates.     

3)    Do you realistically believe that NY 4th Congressional District Democrat Incumbent Carolyn McCarthy can be defeated in November?


Thanks as always,   eb22.   

Daniel:
Do you agree with Mike Bloomberg that the pastor who wanted to burn the Quran on 9/11 had the constitutional right to do it? If we were to to allow and tolerate this to happen, wouldn't this eventually lead to other people burning the Torah? Also, if the pastor did decide to go ahead and burn the Quran, wouldn't that put our overseas soldiers in danger?


In a separate matter, I'm curious to know what your viewpoint is on State Senator Pedro Espada. I'm also interested as to whether you know anything about Espada's current opponent Gustavo Rivera and if you have any opinion of him. If you do, do you have an opinion as to which one you would prefer to win? Or do you loathe them both equally?
