Hello friends, and good day to all.
I have been monitoring this thread in the hopes that the men of this forum would reach a consensus considering we're all members, and obviously share similar goals. It hasn't happened, and instead this thread has continued to devolve into an embarrassing display of name-calling, aspersions, and attacks.
I am disappointed in the ease in which some of our members attack each other and level vicious personal attacks against their fellow JTF'ers. It's as if there's no concept or respect for the fact that regardless of our differences, our very presence here indicates a soul that's in the right place, a heart that yearns for the redemption of the world. In this theead I've seen folks speaking to each other not as friends with a disagreement, but as distrusting, disloyal enemies.
How dare anyone of you speak to your fellow members with this kind of tone?
Some of you have made the most outrageous comments and questions on the ASK JTF segment to Chaim Ben Pesach yet Chaim NEVER turned on you. He never spoke to you as you have done to each other. He never slandered any of you in a way that would indicate anger, distrust, or disloyalty. He never screamed or called you enemies or traitors as you have done here even if your comments or questions could be construed as such. He spoke to every single one of you with respect, love, and courtesy for one simple reason: Because he knows, as I know, that at the end of the day we all have the same goal in mind, and for that reason I care about every one of you, just as he cares about you, and you for him.
There is no reason that the Rabbi's need to be attacked in the manner they have been. Chaim has already advised us against this, and out of respect for him and this forum it stops now. There's no basis or justification for questioning Chaim's claims about his involvement in the JDL or denigrating in any capacity his lifelong struggle in defense of the Jewish idea. This as well with no longer be tolerated, and I will be personally deleting posts which go over the line from here on out.
It’s pointless to denigrate one individual in order to boost up another. Frankly it's irrational, and downright immature. All criticism of Chaim, and the Rabbi's IS allowed, but name-calling, vicious attacks, and aspersions ARE NOT. You do NOT have to put down person A, in order to promote person B. Everyone person in this world stands on their own merits, not on the merits (or lack thereof) of others.
I expect every single one of you to follow these admonitions from here on out, or else I will personally begin to delete posts as I stated above, and handing out disciplinary action in accordance with our rules if necessary. This is the final warning on this topic. These threads DRIVE people away, and turn off potential supporters, and are completely avoidable and unnecessary. I don't want to see anyone calling on the banning of our long standing members, casting them to hell here, slandering Chaim or the Rabbi’s etc. here or in any other thread.
I will keep this thread open because I know all of you will do what needs to be done from here on out. Prove me right, please do not prove me wrong.
With kindest regards until Shiloh comes,
Christopher
