Dear Chaim,

What would a Kahanist government do with cities such as Amman, Aqaba, Damascus, and Beirut when we liberate The Land of Israel? Will those cities be destroyed and Jewish cities built in their place or will the cities be left intact with Jews replacing the Arab Muslim Nazis as the people living there? Were Damascus and Beirut Jewish cities in The Bible? I know Amman is really Rabat Ammon and Aqaba is Halachically part of Eilat. Did Jews live in Rabat Ammon and Eilat? Eilat is part of The Greater Land of Israel and is Halachically no different than Sinai. Judea and Samaria, however, are not part of The "Greater" Land of Israel but rather The Complete Part of Israel because they ARE Biblical Israel's primary areas. Transjordan is also more a part of Israel than Eilat because some tribes lived there and The Golan Heights Halachically is the same as the land controlled by Arab Muslim Nazi Jordan. Gaza is Halachically part of Judea since it is in the territory of The Tribe of Judah although Shmittah doesn't apply there because it wasn't re-sanctified after The Babylonian Exile by Ezra and Nehemiah. They did re-sanctify The Golan Heights.

Yacov Menashe Ben Rachamim,

Dear Chaim,

I recently attended a Lubavitcher Yeshiva in Jerusalem and the way that they look at the Lubavitcher Rebbe looked a lot like Idol Worship. I was wondering what you view on Labavitcher is.

Also, you have said in the past that Chabad does great work and that you support them. However they live outside of Israel which is a sin. Are Chabad rabbis sinning for living outside of Israel?

[TorahZionist]

I'm asking this on behalf of Yacov Menashe Ben Rachamim.

What would be the Kahanist program for the development of Eilat and Sinai? How would we deal with the immorality taking place in Eilat? In 1999, when I arrived in Eilat on the bus in the middle of the night, I walked to the beach and I saw Israeli arsim dancing to trance "music" and to me it seemed like some kind of pagan ritual. What would Kahanists do to outlaw such public lewdness?

Shalom Chaim,

First of all, let me make clear: Men who hit women should be killed, and all of their victims deserve our deepest sympathy.

With that out of the way, the percentage of battery victims who had absolutely no idea who they were marrying is extremely small. It is extroardinarily difficult for a man (or woman for that matter) to successfully hide every aspect of their personality consistently over a dating span of many months. Most monsters drop ample clues about a violent temper, and the starstruck women willfully overlook it, assuming they can "change" him during the marriage. Although the percentage of women who consciously seeks out abusers is small, the number who subconsciously do, because they had a bad childhood or like "macho" men or whatever other reason, is huge.

If Kahanism wants to end the cycle of battery, it must confront ALL aspects of this sick, demented culture.

Hello Chaim,

In which region do you plan to live in Israel?

[SerbChicago]

Hello mr Chaim.What do you think of adding to our site possibility of camera and mic so members can talk between each others if they want to and YOU can use it as video conference with your administrators and moderators,What do you think?

[Rubystars]

Hello Chaim. I read on wikipedia that one of Rabbi Kahane's aliases was "Michael King." I was wondering if this was true and if so if he chose that to make fun of MLK (MLK was born Michael King Jr. but his father renamed himself and his son after Martin Luther.).

[Yisrael]

Shalom Chaim,

What do you think of NYC PC Ray Kelly? Will you support him for mayor of NYC?

Thanks as always,

Yisrael

Dear Chaim,

You may not be aware I am an animal trainer and rescuer. Have done for many years, its a hobby. I notice that the forum states your views on G-ds creatures.

In Bible it states Exodus 21:28

If an ox gore a man or a woman, that they die: then the ox shall be surely stoned, and his flesh shall not be eaten; but the owner of the ox [shall be] quit.

Do you think an animal should be punished for an act that it has done naturally? and that punishment is the death of that animal? Do you believe an animal can be evil?

In my opinion I do not believe that to be correct, I believe the only animal on the planet that processes the ability to be evil, or act evil, is man.

Thank you.

Dear Chaim,

What do you think of cockfighting?  There is a bit of an uproar concerning pitcher Pedro Martinez and Hall of Famer Juan Marichal over their attendance of a cockfighting match in the Dominican Republic.  The reason why I'm asking is because my parents come from that country, and upon hearing of that story, they indignantly asserted that it was a big part of their culture, their parents and grandparents partook therein, etc...  However, as an American, I view cockfighting as animal abuse, and something that is done by the dreck of society.

Hello Chaim,
  What do you think about Michael Savage's attempt to create a Nationalist Party as an alternative to the Democrats and Republicans? Can JTF ever form an alliance with such party?
                                                    Thanks as always,
                                                          Dan

Dear Chaim,

What countries have you been to?

Dear Chaim,
         While I know that JTF does not support the idea of women serving in the I.D.F., I still believe it is an honor and duty of evey able-bodied citizen to serve their country.

Would a Kahanist government allow women to continue national service? I know many religous and secular women who choose this path as an alternative to serving in the army, and I'm considering
it myself when i eventually move to Israel (g-d willing).

Toda,

[Masha]

How do we actually know that Arabs descend from Yishmael? How come is it a settled issue? Does it say so in the Talmud? Are there some rabbis who disagree? Do you allow for the possibility that Arabs descend from the Amalek - physically, directly, and not in a metaphoric sense?

[Alexander]

Hello Chaim,

Who was Melchizedek (Gen. 14:17-20, Psalm 110:4) and was he a significant figure in Jewish history?

Thank you,

Please talk to us about Janusz Korzsak and what we can learn from his actions.

Thank you.

Hello Chaim,

What's your view on global warming and treaties like Kyoto.
Many conservatives don't believe that human behaviour has an impact on global warming or that there is an increase in temperature at all.

What would you do about it if you had the power?

[newman]

Shalom Chaim,

Do you think europe's befoulment by the muSSlim invasion is an entirely natural thing or are the muSSlims a plague sent by Hashem to punnish the europeans for their Jew-hatred and perversion?

Toda,

Newman.

[YESHA]

A good week and Shalom Chaim.
Nice to speak with you again, do you think Arutz Sheva’s English radio channel – IsraelNationalRadio - online is a waste of time, money, effort and energy at both ends, as they are banned in Israel?

[Ben Yehuda]

Dear Chaim,

Can you comment on the practice of making loans for an interest rate? I have read some Jewish writings that state that this is an unacceptable practice for a Jew. This would basically make the mortgage, banking and lending businesses forbidden to Jews. Do I have this right, or am I missing something?

Thanks again for your great contribution to our people.

[Dan Ben Noah]

Shalom Chaim,

Do you think that the United States regularly spies on Israel, and if so, what do you think of this practice?

Respectfully,

DanBenNoah

[SirGallantry]

Dear Chaim,
 
Do you support the premise that Barack Hussein Obama is committing taqiyah (adament denial of his Muslim faith) in order to maintain his "electability" or would the Democrats surely elect him if he were to run openly as a Muslim?  There is presumably in the Koran a dreadful, barbaric prophecy stating that "in the future a Muslim will dictate Sha'ria Law from A White House".  How close will the terrorists be to having power in Washington D.C. if the people and their electors Lord forbid shamefully usher in Hussein "Osama" as its presiding officer?

Again thank you for your time,
Cherubim
 
P.S. I will leave the matter regarding technical pronunciation of my tag in your esteemed guidance.

I heard the "Jewish Theory" about women's voices. Some young women get crazy when they listen to some male singers. Following the "temptation logic", maybe people should not sing?

[Sergio 11]

Shalom Chaim it is me raiseyourfist however i had to change my account due to recent problems i was having but now they are sorted.. today is a quick question

Why is Alan Keyes so unpopular even amongst Republicans, is it his Right wing conservatism as a black person or has he had a conflicted past with a bad history of not staying true to his principals.

Thanks in advance, sergio

[judeanoncapta]

Dear Chaim,

Why do the left wingers have genuine left wing parties and right wingers always get stuck with "centrists" and RINOs?
