I believe there is no point in continuing this conservation with you.
Ubiquitin, stop your aggressive demagoguery, will you? I am not wrong. Before the interim deal Iran was 2-3 months away from the bomb, then they stopped. This is where they are now but the program has been in a freeze.
First you say that you are not sure you are right and then you ask me when I will admit to being wrong.
Even the US experts say that if Iran wanted now to go for the bomb it would need 2-3 months. If Iran were to go there, Israel would have 1.5 months (to be safe)to act. Not too much math for you?
Ubiquitin, oh, please! You must understand that one can be close to point of no return by 10 miles or 0.5 mile. I think if it were o.5 mile, Netanyahu would have ordered an attack. And I was talking about US servicemen. And indeed at a certain point Israel does not have a choice.
I mean that that many servicemen would be lost.
I think 10,000 is quite a remote possibility. Netanyahu is not totally free to act as you may understand.
Ubiquitin, the only serious concern on that list it their ability to attack the US bases in the Middle East. They could attack Israel? Oh, that must concern Obama so much. He is more worried than the Israelis. Give me a break.
Ubiquitin, I don’t think it would last long or would be a big deal. Just bomb their facilities for two days.
Which draft, Ubiquitin? That is pure fantasy. The US has a 400,000 strong army.
Ubiquitin, quit it already. I take offence at your words. Meir Dagan supports withdrawing from the territories also. Once I know that, his don’t attack Iran opinion is unreliable in my eyes.
Netanyauhu wants the least international opposition possible to an attack. He has to deal with Obama and EU. With the deal, it is more difficult.
Anyhow, it still seems to me that you are just trying to pull everyone’s leg here. You also ignored the poll results that the CA brought down.
Btw, what do you mean by the Mossad assessment? Meir Dagan statements? I don’t trust that left-winger.
Anyhow, with the deal it will be much more difficult for the Israelis to launch an attack.
Ubiquitin, stop with the demagoguery. The bottom line is that an attack on Iran is possible and there is an alternative. Period.
Ubiquitin, the way you argue you seem to be very sure of your opinion and suddenly — “I can be wrong.”.
Ubiquitin, you’ve got to be kidding. There is a big difference between a situation where an attack is impossible or can not be successful al pi derech ha’tevah and a situation where it is totally executable and it is just the president and his friends hate doing it. What is not clear?
Ubiquitin, attacking is an option. Just there some people who don’t like going down that path,
Ubiquitin, not really. The real reason is that the liberals lack the will and the stomach even for a limited, mostly air campaign against Iran.
Ubiquitin, the sanctions did work — that’s why the Iranians agreed to negotiate. Keeping them and increasing them is one option. going to war is another option. Do not give me all the liberal lies about how the force does not work. It does.

DC MUTU, or a different country of the Europe’s north. Actually, an alliance of Magog and other northern European countries. The NATO.
Ubiquitin, please, stop… (I wanted to write “playing devil’s advocate here”, but then I thought it maybe a Catholic term and concept). You, probably, yourself realize that you are wrong.
Plus, if the man is not an observant Jew, there is more room to be concerned that he means it derech chibah.
Geordie613, there can be a machlokes among Poskim and different ways of doing things because of that. The OP brought down rulings which are shvere.
Ruzhiner dynasty Chassidim. Breslav.
Gemora says that excessive humility of one of the Tannoim caused the Churban. Any comments? Btw, I am not equating the two situations.
Yes, Joseph. In Chassidishe sforim.
DaMoshe, the chief element of tznius is to be properly “hidden”.
Matan1, why suddenly the hilchos tznius are dependent on the societal norms? If they are halochos, they are halochos. About the chumros and minhagim you can say what you said. Plus, the Rambam says what ideally should be in this inyan. If it were mamash a halochah, the Rabbonim should have been moche on this already for centuries.
Gavra-at-work, you are wrong. Sometimes punishments are just to punish not as means of kapora — some people go to Gehinom forever or loose their share in Olam Haba.
Sam2 and Syag…, 100%.
Owl, we have Torah’s and Chazal’s statements about divorce. I am not for it, but it should not be made into something worse than it is. Sometimes it is wrong ans sometimes — it is not.
Yytz, +1. I would also add that prices are lower in Israel and $10 there get you further than in the US. And the Israeli economy is in better shape than many of the European ones (bli ain horah).
Joseph, the last major war that they had happened in 1973. Btw, during pogroms in Ukraine during the Russian civil war between 50 to 200 thousand Yidden were murdered.
Gemorah in Kesuvos (87A(?)) says that if one refuses to do an ase, we hit him till he dies.
The Gemora says that if one violated an ase, if he does teshuvah, he is forgiven right away. We see that if someone is mevatel an ase, he needs mechilah. Obviously, there eas an aveirah involved!
Coffee addict, very possible. Pashtus,one does get an aveirah for not following that directive of Chazal.
PAA, I hear the diyuk, but it is a befeirushe Gemorah to do shnaim mikra echad targum. I wonder why he wrote it like that. At the very least, it a minhag Yisroel.
Shnaim mikra echad targum is an obligation stated in the Shulchan Aruch. If you don’t fulfill it, you do get an aveirah.
Charliehall, a MO professor, telling us about foreign influences!?! The problems with pants are that they cause hirhurim and are inapproptriate (look Pesochim 3B (I think)).
PAA, says kefirah. Enough is enough.
PAA, in fact the Gemorah says that R’Hillel needs forgiveness for what he said. It was not just stam an error.
PAA, like I said — stop with your lawerly convoluted arguments. Admit the truth.
If he can’t rely on it, it makes him into apikores. Call a spade a spade.
PAA, stop it. If someone in the past held a mistaken and roundly rejected by the Gemorah and all subsequent Gedolim opinion, one can’t come now and rely on it. Stop with your lawerly kup-dreing.
Patur Aval Assur, regarding your question how someone who holds like R’Hillel be an apikoires: If there is a machlokes in the Gemorah if one is allowed to do something on Shabbos and we pasken le’chumrah. If someone goes and does it nowdays, he is a mechallel Shabbos. The same is with the R’Hillel’s shittah.
HaLevi, I recently donated money to the campaign started by the said Rabbi to hire more guards for the mosdos there. He has to speak differently in public. Daven for the Yidden. No time to explain the whole story.
HaLevi, please…!?! They have they own sources and people on the ground. They don’t eat out of the Russians’ hand.Don’t be stubborn. Maybe you want to argue about the draft law in Israel again?
HaLevi, the Western media is anti-Russian, and still they admit it. If it were possible to say otherwise, they would have.
That’s an exaggeration. Plus, in this case it is well-known that the majority wanted it. Even the Western media does not deny it.
There were Chassideshe Talmidei Chachomim who were subservient to their Rebbes who were not as great in Torah. “Chelkas Yoav”, for example. The Litvishe would not hold of it.
He is talking about Chassidishe Rebbes.
DovS1, the vote did not need to be fixed. The Crimean Russians wanted to reunite with Russia.
