Moadim LeSimcha,

You'll be happy to know that on Thursday Night, I made my Passover duck in the oven for the first seder cooked in tomato sauce. But the sauce got mixed with orange duck fat so it's a combination of orange fat and red sauce and it tastes really good like when I make a beef brisket in tomato sauce. I guess you don't like the fat part and I also ate the skin. For the second night we had a chicken. The birds were to represent The Chagigah and I also ate lamb both nights to represent Korban Pesach since Sfaradim are allowed to eat lamb at the seder.

Yacov Menashe Ben Rachamim,
Chief Administrator.

I'm posting this for Yacov Menashe Ben Rachamim.

Do you agree with me that Israel should name The Israeli Embassy in Washington after Jonathan Pollard and that The American President should give him a medal to thank him for saving America and Israel after pardoning him? I saw on The Federal Bureau of Prison's webpage where you can track an inmate that he is eligible for parole in 2015. If a Kahanist government takes over Israel by then, he can come to The Israeli Embassy and be transported from there to Israel since the Bolshevik American Government won't let him leave the country as part of his parole.

    Shalom Chaim.     Happy Passover to you and to everyone celebrating this special occasion.


    Though this question probably has been asked previously,   I think it's important enough for all relatively new JTF and VJA supporters to get your input.     


    My question is as follow:    What can JTF and VJA supporters living in the United States do to help increase your chances of being able to make Aliyah?     Among other possibilities,   should we write to our elected representatives?

Shalom Chaim,

What do you think of the self-hating jew, Bill Maher? The other day I was flipping through the channels and I saw Bill Maher (yimach shemo vezichro) bashing righteous Christian biblical believers with the other leftists on his show, it came off and sounded that he was suggesting people are stupid and ignorant if they believe in a creator or designer of the universe, which is completely preposterous because some of the most brilliant peoples to event and advance things were religious.

G-d Bless,

Greetings Chaim.

This week I want to ask you about a situation that faces two girls named Abigail and Brittany Hensel. They were born as conjoined twins, and have been lucky enough to be able to play sports, go to school, get their driver's licenses (they had to take two tests one for each of them), etc. When they get older they want to be mothers. Would it be morally all right for a man to marry both of them considering their special circumstances?

Here are some pictures of the girls:

It has been mentioned that in this movement Israel should not rely on other nations to save her, but Gd only.  Does JTF rely on righteous gentiles for it to become a mass movement and fighting against evil in the world such as Islam?  If so, can that be viewed as a contradiction to the first statement?

I think that it doesn't because to fight against evil, such as Islam, is a common fight for all righteous people.  Also, those who are righteous that bless Israel will be blessed.  Therefore, when righteous gentiles helps a righteous movement, such as JTF, it is for their benefit.  Our job is to only rely on Gd completely even if the hope were gone that there were no more righteous gentiles, Gd forbid.   

Is there anything more you want to elaborate to that?

Thank you for everything that you do.

Dr. Dan

Dear Chaim.

Do you think the murders of so-called rap "musicians" Tupac Shakur and Notorious B.I.G. were from the works of G-d and they were sent to Hell for immoral actions throughout their short-lived careers?

Yacov adds: Tupac Shakur was killed on Yom HaDin (Rosh Hashana).

Dearest Chaim,

We have to face some realities about the election. The self-hating whites and Jews who worship Obama do so not in spite of his anti-white/anti-Israel stances, or in ignorance of them, but because of them. Crazy or not, few people are truly stupid. The leftist whites love his and "Rev." Wright's "kill whitey" beliefs. Supporting him relieves their "guilt" at belonging to the "race of oppressors", so it makes them feel good.  ::)

G-d bless you. Chaimfan

Chaim, I have a question about the period immediately following you becoming prime minister of Israel. We all know that the entire world will place sanctions on Israel when you do what needs to be done to the muslim drek. Right now Israel is unfortunately in a situation that most of its main weapons come from the us and other places. They do modify the weapons in Israel but the main components are from outside the country. How will you handle a situation in which Israel is no longer being given weapons from outside.? I think it will probably take Israel a few years to be able to build a jet fighter on its own  so will we have to wait till the country is totally self sufficient before we act on the muslims. Of course you will make israel totally independent of outside help but I think even though Israel has extreme brainpower, it will probbly take a bit of time before they have manufactured all the stuff that they are now getting from the outside, totally on their own. Thanks so much Chaim for all you do and I hope your pesach has been wonderful.

Hello Chaim,,,

If you remember TWA 800, it was a plane that people claim that just fell right out of the sky broke in half and into the waters off Long Island.  I am asking this cause someone I do know she lost her one and only son on that plane. Since then she has been really a basket case and I understand cause a parent losing a child I couldn't even imagin that at all.  And I know its over 10 years ago but I questioned this one.  Is there something more that the government is hiding about this crash then we are led to know?  Cause so many claim they saw something hit the aircraft.

Dear Reb Chaim - Hope your first days of Pesach have gone well so far-

This is an issue that comes up again and again and which you have spoken about frequently: that of Evangelicals continuing efforts to convert Jews. A recent ad in the U.S. from the World Evangelical Alliance, which claims to represent some 400-million evangelicals and key leaders, defends conversion efforts.   It is a dilemma, since we are told that evangelicals and other Christians who are bible-believing are the biggest pro-Israel movement.  Thanks for taking my questions. Zev. Moadim Le’Simcha Ve’Mo’ed Tov.

Dear Chaim,
In the middle-ages, the Christian Church put on plays depicting the final days of Jesus.  These were known as "Passion Plays" and were put on by the Church to reassure people's faith in Christianity.  Oftentimes, these passion plays would incite hatred against Jews and often led to persecution by the Church.  My question is about Mel Gibson's film "The Passion of the Christ".  Was he trying to reassure people's faith in Christianity or was he trying to incite anti-Semitic hatred?

Dear Chaim,

Do you think that Irv Rubin YS"V committed suicide in jail?  His comrade and lieutenant, microbe Earl Krugel was killed shortly after (also in jail), he was bludgeoned in the head with a brick, and there was no inquiry into the murder.  Who should jews fear in jail, blacks? nazis? arabs?
Also, while we discuss this scumbag, why would he join the Libertarian party?

Dear Mr. ben Pesach,

in the last time there are a lot of discussions on the forum about right-wing-gentile political parties.

I think before we ally with some of them or reject others, we should write a policy statement that will explain the 7 point plan and should contain the major points of policy for gentile countries (i.e. something like this *).

Through this we are able to compare our core-ideas with theirs. I don't think, that it is enough to hate Muslims. Perhaps after they are rid of them, they decide to go after Jews or/and practicing Christians. But if they fight for the same ideas, like we do, it is unlikely. In addition to that all JTF-gentile-Members would have a red line to establish their own parties or to join existing parties. --I know you are very buisy, but such a document would be a great step forward.

Sincerly,

Ullrich

Subject: My question


I want to tell to you that you must keep up this wonderful work.

If you have time please give me your comments regarding the following happening:

We all know that the monument of the death camp Jasenovac, which represents the murdering of the Serbs and Jews by the Croatian government during WW2, is established in the province of Slavonia which was a part of the former socialist Republic of Croatia. This monument is the symbol of the holocaust against the Serbs during WW2. 

During the Croatian fight for independence in 1991 the armed Croatian neo Fascists attacked the monument of Jasenovac and destroyed many historical evidential materials which were placed in the archive room next to the same monument.

How would the world react if for example some German Neo Nazis attacked the monument of the concentration camp of Auschwitz and tried to eliminate the proves of it’s existence? They would condemn, judge and punish that behavoir and that would be the right thing. But why did not the West and the US condemn the crimes against the Serbs? Where they to busy with the sponsoring of the separatists of Yugoslavia?
The members of the Croatian army had committed such a crime against the remain of the concentration camp of Jasenovac.

What do you think of this?

Thank you for your time Chaim!

Hello.  This is my first post in Ask JTF.  On the one-year anniversary of the Virginia Tech shootings...

What is your position on guns on college campi after Virginia Tech?  I understand that you strongly oppose gun control in general.  My position is that even if you don't want every other student packing heat, certainly the faculty should be allowed to arm themselves to protect their classes.  People such as Dr. Liviu Librescu, Z"L, HY"D, should not be placed in the position where they have to give their lives for the people they're protecting (though it is a noble and heroic act.)  He'd still be alive most likely if he'd been able to pump a slug or two into Cho Seung-Hui, and so would many others.

Thank you for answering my question on pornography last week.  You hit the nail right on the head.  Also; yes it was me posting comments on liveleak and you are very welcome.   This week I wanted to ask you about rap music.  I have known some whites to have listened to this "music", and it seems to me that it has made them more aggressive, moody, and unpleasant to be around.  Do you think that this is because of subliminal lyrics in these "songs"?  Thank you again.

Hello Chaim,

Me and Mord think that a very blunt poll would awake many Israeli middle of road people to face reality.

There should be a big referendum in Israel on the following question : "Do you want to experience another Holocaust ?".

I'm sure they would vote "yes", if the leftists would command them to do so,
arguing it would be  a nazi policy to "force the palisitinas out of paleSStine".
This kind of traitors are much worse then the muslims themselves.

I don't know if you can use this idea?

Hopefully yes.

It's always the best feeling in the world  when Jews flip the tables on their scumbag enemies, who want to start up another holocaust against the Jews.

PS.  Get into Israel in a hurry!  For a million good reasons!

Shalom Chaim,

     When self-hating rabbis or self-hating Jews support Israel surrendering territory or other evil causes and/or justify their actions by accusing groups like JTF of being "racist", they need to be asked the following or to contemplate the following:

          "Is the Torah racist?"  Because people who think JTF is racist would probably consider the Torah to be racist.   And if any rabbis believe that the Torah is racist, then they should no longer be considered a rabbi.

Post by: Kahane-Was-Right BT on April 21, 2008, 10:19:24 PM
Dear Chaim,

Rabbi Kahane's final book was called 'Revolution or Referendum' and in it the Rabbi speaks about the idea of a Jewish revolution if the government of Israel refuses to allow its citizenry to disband it through referendum.  I have read only some of the book but I think in part of it the Rabbi talks about an independent state of Judea.  Binyamin Kahane talked about the IDF leaving Judea and Samaria so that the Jews there could fight the Arabs themselves and defend themselves... On the arutz sheva blogs there is one guy who advocates an independent medinat yehuda and has been drumming up some controversy on Tzvi Fishman's blog, which has been consumed by this argument in the talkbacks for months.  What are your thoughts on a medinat yehudah if people made the steps on the ground to start putting this idea into motion (ie building trenches etc)?  It's not the goal of JTF or the ideal, but do you think it is feasible or worthwhile if all else fails?

Happy Pesach and good moed.
