    apy: If you ate a shtick chazir that had a chazaka of being kosher meat, but it later turned out (after you digested the pork) that it was chazir, you followed halacha when you ate it as you had the right to do so based on its halachicly correct assumption of it being kosher meat. But would you feel bad ex post facto that you in fact ate chazir? Would you ask Hashem for mechila?

    ZD: Republicans can vote for Sanders and Democrats can vote for Trump.

    There is a write-in vote option.

    Apparently having a discussion again of a topic that was already discussed a mere nearly six years ago is much too soon. Especially such an unimportant topic as chinuch habonim.

    How do the Yekkes do three hours, then?

    Not embarrassed that they got an aliya; the point of mentioning the aliyas was that everyone knows who represents themselves as a Kohen. The question is will they be embarrassed that they publicly represented themselves as a Kohen all their lives and now Eliyahu HaNavi exposed that they are not Kohanim.

    Will the false Kohanim and Leviim be embarassed when Eliyahu HaNavi tells them they’re not Kohanim/Leviim? All their life they went to shul and got an aliya by Kohen and Levi, and they duchened every Yom Tov. And now along comes a malach and suddenly makes them ois Kohen and all their friends and neighbors see they can no longer do the kehuna.

    Avi: Chacham Ovadia not only supported giving the Arabs land from Israel for peace, he actually had his political party’s MKs vote for it. Rav Schach also supported land for peace, as did very many other Gedolei Yisroel.

    Sovereignty is not worth the loss of even one Jewish life.

    Avi, I am being moche your history of being motzi shem ra on the Lebanese Republic and on the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, both of which are sovereigns over Eretz Yisroel. Furthermore, you are part of the meraglim and an ingrate for insisting that it is unsafe for Yidden today to do the great mitzvah of yishuv haaretz in Lebanon, Eretz Yisroel or in Jordan, Eretz Yisroel. Your not insisting Yidden around the world today move to the Eretz Yisroel’dik portions of Lebanon and Jordan, much as moving to the Eretz Yisroel’dik portions of the zionist entity, demonstrates your lack of bitochon and violation of the fulfillment of yishuv haaretz.

    You should be the first to rectify this sin by immediately moving to Southern Lebanon.

    Simcha, which poskim ever paskened that a) yishuv today is doche pikuach nefesh and that b) any of Israel’s wars are a milchemes mitzvah? Rabbi Kook did not pasken that, so who are the great rabbis that took it on their shoulders to rule that multitudes of Jewish lives may be sacrificed in the name of gaining or maintaining control of the land?

    Specific names, please.

    Simcha: You value Jewish blood too cheaply. Who are you to say Gush Katif was even with 10 Jewish lives to hold unto? How can your sacrifice 100 Jewish lives to gain or maintain political sovereignty over Sderot. And how can you allow even 1,000 Jewish lives to be butchered in order to control Tel Aviv?

    How do you dare come to say “But only a small small minority of the Jewish People are actually being killed. I would not think that that qualifies as the type of massacre that the ma’apalim faced.”?!

    Pikuach Nefesh doche kol haTorah. Including Shabbos and certainly including yishuv.

    Avi: How dare you criticize the Lebanese or Jordanian States that maintain sovereignty over Eretz Yisroel? FTR, Israel isn’t a Jewish State.

    ???? ??? ??? was supposed to do the Avoda initially. ??? ??? was taken “??? ?? ???? ??? ???”. But it says it will revert back to the b’chorim after Moshiach.

    Furthermore, not there entire State of Israel is in Eretz Yisroel. Eilat, Israel

    is in chutz l’aaretz. And not the entire Eretz Yisroel is in the State of Israel. Southern Lebanon and parts of Jordan are in Eretz Yisroel.

    Is Avi outraged and denounces anyone who speaks ill of the safety conditions of living in southern Lebanon or western Jordan as being from the meraglim? Are those that speak ill of the governments of southern Lebanon or western Jordan, Eretz Yisroel, meraglim too?

    Avi, for the umpteenth time despite multitudes of being corrected and reprimanded, once again purposely confuses Zionism with aliya and living in Eretz Yisroel.

    The biggest Bnei Torah who are anti-Zionist live in Eretz Yisroel.

    Of course. You don’t even need to stand online.

    Maybe it is interesting how often ZD professes knowledge about so many things that he is so obviously and drastically wrong about.

    I dont find this to be true as often as you do, i don’t find this to be true exclusively of him, and i do find that he somehow avoids EVER being rude

    To summarize, you believe library visits should be permitted but must only be done with adult supervision at the branch to insure no halachicly or hashkaficly improper reading material is accessed, correct?

    Obviously that would entail that the children shouldn’t have their own library card, which would permit them to check out books without supervision, and rather the adult should have a card to check out the approved books after reviewing them for their appropriateness.

    Rav Heiman was a maggid shiur in Ohel Torah of Baranowitz, which is what I may have mistakenly assumed he was a talmid. But I saw a copy of a ksav yad from Rav Elchonon advising talmidim to contact Rav Heiman about coming to America.

    Don’t those with minhagim from some parts of Oberland have a later shkia than the most common zman? I recall initially when they came to America post-WWII they started Shabbos later (some still do even today) but later agreed with Rav Aharon to use the earlier zman in order to have a unified zman rather than different kehilos starting Shabbos different times in the same neighborhoods.

    If so, b’shas hadchak could not those from the aforementioned kehilos utilize their later shkia to light?
