Shalom Chaim,
1. Israel's Shefla Basin holds the world’s 2nd largest shale deposits outside the United States, from which around 250 billion barrels of oil – about the same as Saudi Arabia’s proven reserves, could be extractable. Israel is working on a new, cheaper, enviro-friendly method for tapping this abundance. This, along with the Leviathan and Tamar gas fields, and Her advances in wind and solar technology, will position Israel as an energy superpower and drastically change the political landscape. As you disapprove of oil, are you against Israel tapping into these massive reserves and so the wealth and political power that would come with it?
2. I know many Jews who tell me that they cannot believe in G-d because of the Holocaust. As I don't want my Jewish brothers and sisters to be atheists, have you discovered a reply that gives such people pause, and encourages them to reconsider?
3. It has been said that the only difference between socialism and Marxism is time. Do you agree with this? Do you consider Obama a socialist or Marxist, or neither?
4. Should Mike Huckabee enter the race, what would you consider the misstep(s) he should make sure to avoid?
Chazak v'emahtz!

Shalom Shalom Chaim:
Below are excerpts from a paper I had to read aloud to an elective class I’m in; it was refuting the claims made by the radical left that the acquittal of the officers who beat that baboon R. King made killing, raping, and looting justified by citing the behavior of the savages on Rav Kahana’s jury and Rosenbaum’s jury. A pretty Cuban girl complemented me as did many other girls, except for a cucaracha:
“Two separate prominent cases of institutional anti-White and anti-Semitic jury-rigging are found in the murder of a controversial Rabbi and Australian Yeshiva student. On December 21, 1991, months before the Rodney King verdict, the murderer of Rav Meir Kahane, El Sayyid Nosair, was acquitted of murder by a Manhattan jury, a jury that even the defendant’s attorney described as “third-world.” This verdict was in spite of the fact that Rav Kahane was shot only “moments after giving a speech at the Marriott East Side Hotel,” and in spite of the fact that Nosair was simultaneously “convict[ed] of firing and possessing the murder weapon,” which was a result of the ensuing struggle to subdue Nosair just subsequent his shooting of the Rabbi. Though Nosair would eventually be convicted for “plotting to blow up New York City landmarks,” his associates were convicted of the 1993 bombing of the World Trade Center.
[…]
“Another case involving racial hate was the stabbing of Yankel Rosenbaum, an Australian Yeshiva student, during the Crown Heights Pogrom. The defendant, Lemrick Nelson Jr., was identified by Rosenbaum just before he breathed his last. Additionally, the “murder weapon was in [Nelson’s] pocket” and detectives contend, “Nelson had confessed twice to different detectives.” Nelson was acquitted in 1992 by a jury composed “of 5 men and 7 women, of which 6 [were] black, 4 Hispanic and 2 white.” Following the acquittal, the jury felt it appropriate to attend a dinner with Nelson and his attorneys. After being subsequently overturned in 2002 because “the trial judge had picked the jury improperly, setting the stage for the retrial in United States District Court,” a jury “made up of eight blacks, two whites, and two immigrants from Guyana” found Nelson only guilty of “violating the civil rights” of Rosenbaum.” Despite this injustice, the Hasidic community in Crown Heights did not riot, loot, or kill.
[…]
“While doublethink is demanded regarding the guilt of the murderers of Nicole Brown, Rabbi Kahana, Yankel Rosenbaum, et al., the newspapers respond to the verdict acquitting the police in the Rodney King case by releasing the addresses of the jurors ; for what reason would they do this except to attempt to engender the murder of innocent jurors? Furthermore, the two examples of minority juries during this same time—one of which was before the King verdict—arriving at verdicts that were flagrantly removed from any notion of justice casts doubt upon the claims portraying the court system as an anti-black vehicle of oppression.”
Your comments, please.
PS: Those Jew-hating jurors should be electrocuted to death. AMEN!
Gd bless!

Dear Chaim,
A few questions for this week:
1) Do you believe that Arnold Schwarzenegger is, in fact, a Nazi? I remember you talking about an association he had with a former Nazi named Kurt Waldheim. Is this accurate?
2) As I've written before, the Japanese absolutely make me sick. I find them to be a dirty and depraved people. Do you share this sentiment? Was the tsunami payback for their actions during World War II?
3) Does Kate Middleton deserve a YS'V?
4) Who poses a bigger threat to the safety of America: arabs or homosexuals?
All my best,
RWG
The One and Only Mo:
Dear Chaim,
1) Where was Rav Kahane buried?
2) Have you ever been to a Major League Baseball game?
3) Have you ever heard that Jews aren't supposed to laugh hysterically because of the churban habayis? I was laughing very hard in shiur the other day and my Rebbe mentioned that rule to me.
4) What's your favorite kind of salad and dressing?
5) Other than salmon and tuna, what other kinds of fish would you recommend?
6) How long do your sedarim usually go? Are you usually full by the time the meal is served?
7) Have you ever leind a parasha on Shabbos?
8 What's your opinion of Breslov?
9) Do you wear tefilin during chol hamoed?
May you and your loved ones have a chag kasher v'sameach, and may we be zocheh to the geula and the rebuilding of the beis hamikdash b'mheira v'yameinu.

Shalom Chiam, The reason I ask many questions about the Serbs is because we have a difference of opinion on this issue Even though I try to look for other topics to talk about I do agree with you on most other issues though.
1. I Remember in Middle School when I was about 13 years old our class were watching a movie about the Holocaust and I remember thinking that the Allies had gained the upper hand over the German Air Force as early as February 1944 and that the Air Forces of the U.S. And Britain could've targeted the Rail ways of the Concentration Camps before large numbers of Jews arrived there. however did the Germans have the material to rebuild the Rail Lines if they have been Bombed?
2. Do you remember when General Pershing in 1911 told his soldiers in the Philippines to execute the Muslim Soldiers? Historians have said that that was that was a politically incorrect description of how America dealt with Muslim Insurgency.
3. Canada has 14% of the reserves of oil in the world do you think that along with some renewable energy resources can set the Oil Sheiks back?
4. Another question about the Black Hebros is that you said they consider Jews unlike them to be an imposter which is why they steal fruits and say "You is White Jew Imposter" How could they get away with things like this?
5. The Protests in Afghanistan have killed 14 UN Soldiers two of which were beheaded.
