Shalom Chaim,
Thanks for another terrific show last week and for answering my questions. I have a brief comment and two-short questions this week.
Comment: Regarding last week’s question about Japan's low crime rate: I lived in Japan for almost twenty years. It is indeed a very safe country with a very low crime rate. I didn’t even have to lock my door when I left my apartment. Imagine that! However, due to Japan’s very low birthrate, it began to take in more and more foreign workers, mostly from Brazil, Peru, and Indonesia. With this influx of foreigners, I began to notice a distinct deterioration of civil life there, and a rise in crime. Until recently, although Japan is not a religious country in the least, it had a strong code of taboo and mutual respect. Young people were taught to respect their elders and teachers, and to mind their manners and practice common courtesy. This, sadly, has been quickly unravelling over the past decade or so, and lot of the blame, I believe, is do to the influx of western-style Liberalism into their media, schools, and inevitably, government.
Question #1) Do you think the tea parties, the opposition and shout downs at the townhalls, and the increasing amount of ridicule and mocking of the "the chosen one" (such as the poster of him as ‘The Joker’ that went viral over the internet) is about to peak, or is this just the beginning?
Question #2) Do you think what the malignant narcissist Balak Insane O'drama and his minions are doing is out of ignorant, self-deluded, but “well-intentioned” idealism; or, is their agenda purely and deliberately malicious, and being forwarded with the sincere intention to bring down the U.S. and Israel? If the latter, what about the Democrat leadership and mainstream media who support him? Are they completely complicit and fully aware of Obama's end game?
Thanks very much. May Hashem strengthen you. Chazak v'emahtz!
