Estragon1396:
Dear Chaim,

I have 2 questions for you this week.

1) Last week, I asked you about the origin of the clothes of Haredi Jews. Now, I'm curious to know: aside from the issue of clothing, what are the major differences between the Haredim and the Orthodox (religious-nationalist) Jews? Do these two groups have any disagreements about the intepretation of the Bible or about certain Mitzvot? Or are the differences between them more superficial? Also, why did you choose to become an Orthodox Jew rather than a Haredi? Was it because of Rabbi Kahane's influence, or because of some other factor?
On a related note, are there any Haredim who support the Kahanist movement (or, at least, are sympathetic to its goals)?

2) In one of your previous programs, you've stated that, if you came to power in Israel, you would allow leftist Jews to leave the country, and Israel would be better off without them. However, this statement of yours seems to contradict the classical Zionist worldview, according to which all Jews (even left-wing ones) must live in Israel. How do you resolve this contradiction?
Also, what would be the ultimate fate of those leftists who would choose to emigrate from the Kahanist State of Israel? Do you believe they would eventually realize their errors, become right-wing, and return to Israel? Or would they become completely assimilated in their host countries and cease to be Jews? (Obviously, the contradiction would be resolved in both of these scenarios).

Thank you for your answers,

Estragon1396

Shalom Chaim,


1.   What is your opinion on Nevada 1st District Democrat Congresswoman Shelley Berkley?      Both in terms of her positions on Israel and in general?     There are some people who consider Shelley Berkley the most Pro-Israel Democrat in Congress (  if there is such a thing ).     Beyond the fact that I know you are uncomfortable with Jews running for office outside of Israel,     I'm very interested in your opinion of her.     My guess is that you are aware of legitimate concerns with Shelley Berkley on her positions on Israel,   that practically no one else is reporting.       

2.   What is your opinion of Rabbi Aryeh Spero and his organization called the Caucus for America?

3.    In addition to your Activism on the Internet with JTF,   have you ever been an active part of a political campaign for a specific candidate (s ) in the United States and/ or during your time in Israel?      If you have,   I would be interested in you sharing your experiences from the campaign,  in terms of your roles in the campaign.   


Thanks as always,  eb22.

angryChineseKahanist:
Is it true that some of the founding fathers of America were of Jewish decent?
Can you name a few?
I think I saw one on a ten dollar bill.


EDIT:
I've been compelled to ask.
What's your take on the Rothschilds?

Confederate Kahanist:
Dear Chaim

Who do you think was worse?

George W Bush or Bill Clinton?

Thanks

Mishmaat:
Shalom Chaim,

May you share with us another close encounter with the Third World (an African-Action story)?

You're a gentleman and a scholar.

Kol tuv.
