You are correct, but perhaps should ally with writers like Chanaya Weissman and Baruch Kogan who understand your POV, rather than fighting over petty squabbles.

Thank you for writing, sir. But how do you come to think these gentlemen understand my POV?

And who is Baruch Kogan?

Baruch writes Post-Kahansim which you had a go at recently.

Both of them agree with the main thrust of this article, which is that a spook state runs the State of Israel (and the US and world at large, but I digress). Since you took the effort to write this article and break down in some detail the details of the machine, I presume you're intention is to educate and perhaps enlighten those whose Overton Window has shifted enough that they may be amenable to your POV.

And if that is indeed the goal, a worthy one I might add, then IMO you're better off cross allying with the likes of Baruch and Chanaya, who both have audiences that would benefit from your writing and vice versa.

Certainly better than the petty squabbles I've witnessed you enage with them in.

You can characterize as 'petty' the public desecration of a rav (and his followers) who gave his life for the Jewish people, but I don't.

Rabbi Kahane was a talmid chacham atzum, and those who follow him and learn his sefarim are, in my opinion, better prepared to weather the coming storm than almost any Jew out there.

Moreover, Jews who search for whatever negatives they can find about such a great man (and his followers) shouldn't be surprised when they get some pushback.

Is it a shame they initiated the slander? Of course.

Should it go unanswered?

Not a chance.

Thank you for informing me of Baruch Sofer's real name.

Hope to post some of my own music on SAVETHEHILLTOPYOUTH before long.

You inspired me.

You are right, insulting (the memory of) a choshuve Rav is wrong. I'm not their white knight, here to defend their actions, only venting my personal frustrations that the few dissident voices I listen to can't get along.

I look forward to your music!
