Shlomo:
Dear Chaim,

How would you feel about integrated chat in the forum if it was very simple to setup?

Shabbat Shalom,

Shalom Chaim, ma nishma?

You mentioned the elder couple that are pack rats.. it sounds nearly identical to my wonderful 100 year old great aunt, and her son. She also has a huge apartment in Queens, and he has a good size apartment in Manhattan.. both apartments are filled with literally THOUSANDS of newspapers. It's scary to look at and that's one of the main reasons why I am stopping this now. I haven't been buying anything, and I have started to organize some stuff, and throw a lot away.. so I'm starting off right.

You mentioned on Ask JTF last week that seeing a woman half naked (I assume you mean in a bikini) would destroy a man's soul. Now, whether you go to a beach or not, there are lingerie advertisements everywhere you go. Women dress very skimpy in the street all the time as well, so it's very hard not to see this. Is the soul really destroyed for good when this happens?
I don't know if my soul has been destroyed, but I can tell you that when I see a beautiful girl dressed well, I get angry, frustrated and jealous. And I think to myself "why can't I have a girl like that" .. or a girlfriend period. Although I think my conservative ideology makes it difficult to find a girl in NYC, but that's another story. I think that anger, frustration and jealousy do hurt a man's soul.. is that what you mean by that? If not, can you be more specific on what you mean by the destruction of a man's soul based on seeing a half-naked woman?

Toda raba,
Vito

Chaim,

Do you think world war III will ever happen?  If so, Do you think it will start in the Middle East or elsewhere?

True Kahanist:
Dear Chaim,

I was happy with your response last week. Thank you. Please can you explain the split between Lechi and Etzel in 1940 - because i'm confused about the facts?

Hello Dear Chaim,

This week I was introduced to a wealthy Jewish Liberal putz who told me has given pretty large amounts to several Jewish charities.  I tried to turn him onto JTF, but when I mentioned the cause continues the teachings of the great Rabbi Kahane he said that it sounded way too right wing for his liking and he wasn't interested (typical unfortunately).  He did mention, however, that he was surprised he had never received any literature from JTF before, since he is apparently on the mailing lists of tons of Jewish charities.  This got me thinking that maybe JTF should try a fundraising campaign through the mail.  I believe mailing lists can be obtained that target specific demographic groups (Jews, righteous gentiles, etc.).  Do you think this is worth a shot?  Also I was wondering if someone in the forum were to try and raise money for JTF is it ethical for him or her to keep a small percentage?  Thanks for the great work as always and G-d bless.

Ari
