    The first chol hamoed trip was through the desert

    This is where the minhag came from to ask “are we there yet” because the first one lasted 40 years

    “coffee – I read what he said, but I want to hear the word ‘no’ from a lubavitcher without the ability to be medayak their way out of it. And I’ve yet to hear this in person, or online. “

    This was someday’s comment

    “However, being as the Rebbe z”l was niftar, it will have to be another.“

    So he’s saying since the rebbe passed away he’s not moshiach

    You can get a 2 L bottle for two dollars or you can get a six pack of 1.5 L bottles for $19.

    So with the 2L bottle it’s $1/L

    Whereas with the 6 1.5L bottles it 19/9 or $2 1/9 per liter

    I don’t follow your logic

    Jackk,

    Not sure where you live but in my community we get a newspaper called “the Jewish home” and every week they ask their readers (those that asked to be included) a question like “what’s your favorite flavor of ice cream” or “are you planning on going away for Pesach”

    This isn’t any different

    “I am sure Netanyahu and Ben-Gvir are laughing at the poll.“

    They’re probably not (they probably don’t even know or care about it) but the rest of your comment makes sense if the point of the poll is to garner change, which I don’t feel the reason for the poll is, I think it’s just for YWN to know what it’s viewers think

    You remind me of a maaseh that happened to me when I was in Ner Yisrael

    I was collecting for our sister city in yahud (chinuch atzmai school) and we come to a house and the wife says they only give to zionistic causes so she asked if Ner Yisrael celebrates Yom haatzmaut to which we said no, then she asked if we say the prayer for the Medina hand we said no, so she didn’t give us any money

    I finally understood the vort about the chasidah and realized why it’s not kosher

    “Cheap – less the 200 a night in that area“

    Look at Airbnb they have 100 a night (you’re right it’s a whole in the wall but we don’t need much just a place to sleep)

    “fyi just booked tickets for under 900$ Newark to Tel Aviv with stopover in Atlanta for July“

    Yeah with delta ($888) but that doesn’t include luggage

    There’s a jfk to tlv on delta with a stopover in Boston for a little more expensive (1050) and it comes with a suitcase (this was for the date I checked in august)

    “Let them feel safe in their beliefs so that they would be comfortable to get involved in other topics. Eventually they would wizen up. And if they don’t, then it’s not much of a loss to begin with. But doubling down like you do, just makes them be more defensive. Then they hesitate before learning anything new because maybe it will ruin their belief in the Rebbe. And all their creative intelligence gets wasted in more elaborate defenses.“

    N0mesorah,

    And what if now that their belief in the rebbe makes their involvement in other topics only through the prism that “the rebbe is moshiach” and whatever svarah they come up with is krum to begin with

    Commonsaychel,

    I guess we’re not being clear in what cheap is

    No one is saying they want to pay $500 for a round trip ticket that has 3 stops and takes two days to get to Israel then wants a place in a sleazy part of town

    Cheap means affordable while only having minor inconvenience

    Good to know,

    It depends on what is a noble cause

    To the frei tziyonim judicial reform is bad so opposing it is good and whatever is done to do that is good, whereas religion and Torah is bad and whatever is done to further that is bad too and whatever is done to counteract it is good so not wanting to be counteracted is bad

    Isn’t it a Gemara in brachos that neshamos don’t care about what goes on down here?

    And additionally what is this about davening that a neshoma helps, davening is to Hashem in the merit of the neshoma

    “4) Having a business decide who lives and who dies Is as you said “wrong, I agree””

    Ubiq,

    So it’s better for the government to decide “who lives and who dies”?

    My son can’t be a jc (junior counselor) in camp this year because he will be 1 month short or 14 when the second half of camp starts

    He wants to work so he can make money
    We want him to work because it will teach him responsibility
    The camp wants him to work because he used to be a camper and they know him

    This is what is probably being permitted in Arkansas, not forced child labor like the democrats want you to believe

    This question my son asked me on Purim (I don’t have an answer to it) during yeshivas Mordechai hatzaddik (so I wasn’t drunk yet)

    רש״י says צומו עלי was י״ד- ט״ז (probably from a Gemara or medrash) so if that was the case בסוף שלשת ימים was ט״ז but in the הגדה at נרצה says that נדדה שנת המלך was the first night of Pesach so how does it work out?

    “MBachur: How did you not throw up? My husband tried everything, but every year he throws up, and I can’t take it. I don’t mind when he’s high… but it’s not worth it afterward when he’s throwing up and feeling sick like a dog.

    One thing I can’t understand is how they do it again every year. I understand the first time when you don’t realize what’s coming. But after feeling so sick, how can one bare to drink again. (And it’s not like he dreads it, he gets excited every year! How do I remind him what it felt like?????“

    Sorry I’m twelve years too late in answering
