A person needs something, after all, to satisfy spiritual needs. Being equally removed from Judaism as from Christianity, Buddhism, Paganism and Islam, what are my choices? Luckily, there is idolatry, or call it secularism for me. For once, a rabbi, any rabbi, is saying something worth agreeing with.

truth of the situation from entering their consciousness because the reality (me the godless mortal against 2 billion crazy Jew hating Muslims) is just too terrifying. I'm sure psychiatry has a term for this.

I suppose they get s pass because thet have "followers＂, right? Guess what? The media also has followers, many of whom are religious. This guy, like all power brokers looking to shore up their own security works to isolate his base from challengers to his authority. The media shines a light on these competitive leaders and their tactics.

He means the left embraces liberalism as their religion. It's a religion to them; never mind the Torah, they have their own common-sense thing going on. Their religion is wiser than the Torah....they think. lol

Maybe I should convert to Judaism? Unfortunately for the Rabbi, all media is like that.

“Men will never be free until the last king is strangled with the entrails of the last priest” We killed the kings. How can the priests dare to open their mouth?!

Ad hominem attacks instead of reason hints that your opponent is right. Rabbi Melamed is alleging the following facts: Barak and Yehimovitch gave Hezbollah rockets to attack Israel. Rabin and Peres gave Yesha to Fatah, bringing these rocket attacks Sharon, Peres, Olmerd, Livni and Barak gave Gaza and rockets to Hamas. Either he is right or he is wrong. All you have to do is bring evidence. #1 what is the relevance of army service? #3 what is the relevance of mental health, although giving weapons to someone sworn to murder you is a strong sign of mental illness #4 gays are killed just as easily by Fajrs as anyone else. In the last attack a women and an Arab were murdered by Hamas. #11 don't be hypocritical: Sharon was a criminal and the Left still supported him

#7 John Why are so many misinformed Leftist Christians against Israel. wanting to boycott her goods and generally support the Arabs?

KING DAVID HAD PEOPLE TO PRAY

what unit was rav melamed in? oh thats right...he wasnt in any unit. this country was built by and continues to survive thanks to secular and traditional jews, not the religious

The ignorance about the National Relgious Camp of these commmetaries is unbelieveable , he is a Rabbi from the Settlement of Har Bracha part of the National Relgious camp that all serve in the army 40% of Israeli Army is made up of the National Relgious Soldiers of his camp,and they are now the leaders in percentage of front line soldiers Get your facts straight before you show your ignorance.

The right wing, which has been in charge of Israel for years and has been setting the policy regarding the peace process (ignoring it) is not in any way responsible for the terrible relations with the Palestinians. The settlement expansion by the thousands of units , the open-air Gaza prison; The price tag attacks in the territories that go largely unpunished. Those factors are not involved. In reality, it is the good sense of the Black hat religious right wing, who since the establishment of the State of Israel, have enhanced Israel by transplanting the shtetl culture of eastern Europe, along with its hatred and mistrust of all non-Jews, insuring that Israel will never get along with the Arabs. And on display here as well, is their hatred for any Jew who chooses to live differently than them. So, these are the people who have it right! Well then it's official. The world has gone to hell in a hand basket.

You can smell the young leftist wing rising and gaining power all over the world without control. Let me tell you one thing mr., it's called P-R-O-G-R-E-S-S. Oh yup, welcome to our new world Mr. "rabbi" lol

...and invented the Iron Dome. This guy is a superstitious ignoramus dressed in 16 century robes and jiving by 2nd century rules!

You are the idolator for you believe in an anthropomorphic"God" who magically sanctions your every primitive delusion to the detriment of the State. Take a hint from "leftists' like Spinoza and Einstein.

Q: Why does Israel have continuous wars and troubles from Gaza? A: Because of our lunatic leftist inspired retreat from Gaza, which was supposed to create peace. Q: Why does Israel have continuous wars and troubles from Lebanon? A: Because of our lunatic leftist inspired retreat from our South Lebanon Security Zone. (Remember the leftist "Four Mothers"?) Q: Why did Israel suffer tens of thousands of maimed and murdered civilians after Oslo? A: Because leftists insisted we pretend terrorist honcho Arafat was a "peace partner" and we should give him our land. And on and on an on it goes...Nothing endangers Israel more than leftists dolts and their lunatic retreats, which are the direct cause of most Israeli problems.

The anarchist movements in Israel, such as the prominent Shalom Akhshav (Peace Now), are the 3rd column in Israeli society. They are supported with lots of money, that they receive from Hamas and other Arab terrorist organizations, via European channels. These are real money laundry! BAN THEM NOW!

You are a prime example of a closed minded far rightest. Israeli's political leanings have no real effect on Hezbollah's nefarious actions to destroy Israel.

This Rabbi just wants the kind of powers that Mursi has just given himself in Egypt. Good luck with that!

an egocentric fool, hungry for attention blaming every one else for his mistakes... Stupid is as Stupid Does and this Rabbi Does Stupid at a whole new level!

The preferred game in the area seems to be psychological projection. Similarly to Hamas who attributes its misfeats ti Israel, so do haredim. They abuse Talmud to tell what they are actually doing. This rabbi is speaking a perfect idolatry statement: he substitutes to the word of Talmud.

your willingness to taste the original Judaism . One who is familiar with 3star cuisine does not eat junk food. Shavuah Tov, Michael.

relevant for religious Jews,regarding religious matters.

The claim is made but the facts and historical record do not support that claim.

i wonder if all who here "curse" the talmud did study at least one chapter of it, i mean studied real. for all anti - jewish: if you like it or not G-d and his Torah is what make us worthy to live.there are things that happen that we dont understand but because we are limited to percieve G-d but one is sure without those peple who serve him, pray and keep Torah there wont bu you and whole Israel anymore. and for those who say "judaism doesnt offer nothing" go study first and you will se that offer and how much !

the oral and written Tora that G-D gave to Moshe Rabenu on Har Zion, The Tora was scrupulously passed since more than 3000 years from one generation to the following until our times. All needed adjustments that Rabbis made are strictly based on what Moshe Rabeinu received from G-D. They didn't add anything new,since this is clearly forbidden.

if they can annoy this so called rabbi they must be doing something good. Well done and keep it up. He merly brings media attention to himself and highlights the fool he is.

She lost all contact with reality when her brainwashing was complete. Facts of the real world, real history -- and the real Creator -- she dismisses as Epikoros. She doesn't learn. I've concluded she's incapable of learning.
