For all those pro Roosevelters

FDR deliberately hurt Jews by restricting their immigration to nearly zero and opposing opening refugee camps in N. Africa (Wyman p 117). In June 1939, FDR refused to save 900 Jews aboard the ship St. Louis. FDR repeatedly endorsed the Holocaust – he suppressed news about it (Treasury Report) and would not permit bombing of deportation railways or crematoria at the camps even when it could have saved hundreds of thousands of lives (Wyman p 295). FDR delayed the freeing of prison camps in the Netherlands as long as possible so the Jews would die. Report to the Secretary on the Acquiescence of this Government in the Murder of the Jews, Treasury Department, January 13, 1944, said FDR was “guilty not only of gross procrastination and willful failure to act, but even of willful attempts to prevent action from being taken to rescue Jews from Hitler.” Just one fact of many that are in the report – “By the act of 1924, we are permitted to admit approximately 150,000 immigrants each year. During the last fiscal year only 23,725 came as immigrants. Of these only 4,705 were Jews fleeing Nazi persecution.”

Did the Hanhala want this to go on youtube and become an internet sensation?

“A marriage should involve 2 people who are complete.”

Our sources teach us that a person is in fact incomplete and only half a soul until he/she gets married. Marriage completes and unites the 2 halves of the soul into one unit.

We have not gone off the deep end, but the world has. Its absolutely repulsive to see some of the ads that pop up in the apps on my filtered phone that unfortunately doesn’t filter out the ads on the apps. But of course if you lead a certain lifestyle you become “immune” to anything rated lower than R or beyond.

It was also said about Reb Moshe. I think I even saw it in his biography which is a must read!

This name is already taken

So who’s Joseph? There are many who would like to know.

This guy is far from a role model why on earth are there 2 threads dedicated to him on the “Yeshiva”world site?!

For this reason I try to always think or say “bli neder” when I offer to do something for someone. We never know what may come up and how the situation can change. To answer your question, “libi omer li” that you are fine you had no idea that you would be able to send it earlier. Your whole purpose in saying what you said was that you would send it asap. Not “davka” from your office.

Daven in a chassidish place. Its normal to raise your voice by Davening. I don’t scream or make “kolos” I raise my voice when I Daven to a conversational level. Shemoneh esrei is meant to be silent. The rest should be loud. Its called pesukei dzimrah (from the loshon of zemer-song) for a reason.

The little I know

Interesting that when it comes to Davening a little loudly people are disturbed. I guess you never attended a loud ball game or anything of the sort. Yes its inappropriate to scream and shout (in most shuls) but its perfectly normal to daven out loud and with feeling. I have never seen an adam chashuv that doesnt raise his voice by Davening. If you enjoy and feel your davening you raise your voice. In fact there are places in davening where we mention the concept of saying Hashems praises to others, theres the idea that when you Daven you should Daven out loud and “spur on and urge” others to praise Hashem and sing to Him.

All the money and power has gotten to their heads. What I don’t understand is that if these people are supposed to be their “spiritual” leaders, the ones looked up to admired and respected, what else can we expect from their students and chassidim other than the worst of the worst and thuggish behavior?

When there were kings they had advisers and if those advisers chas veshalom didnt act with the right respect they were thrown in prison and in some cases killed on the spot depending on the power of the king and if he had absolute power and all that.

I am ok with my my wife giving me constructive criticism when necessary as long as its not too often and done tactfully. It is a wife’s job to be a “helpmate” according to our tradition. However if she berates her husband and is a nasty critical woman shes obviously not helping anybody.
