How exactly do you set someone up to propose hiring out a woman so you can watch her being raped?

It is certainly true that the revelations about <br />Tropper are causing him embarrassment. He could have avoided this spectacle by resigning in full before the information became public. But part of his chutzpah is his conviction that the olam can be fooled no matter what the facts are.<br /><br />He and his backers are responsible for this great scandal. You are being blamed for being the messenger. Do people believe that the facts would disappear if the mesenger would stop writing? No one says the Monsey chicken scandal would have been less of a problem if no one had been notified.<br /><br />The fact is that right now certain keilim have to be kashered before we can put this scandal behind us.<br /><br />Thank you Rabbi Eidensohn for the work you are doing.<br /><br />PS. I found the comments on the article in the 5T Jewish Times very interesting.Yerachmiel Lopinhttp://frumfollies.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7309929059139673041.post-43837345540939556242010-01-27T16:08:38.648+02:002010-01-27T16:08:38.648+02:00Where can I buy Yad Moshe?Where can I buy Yad Moshe?madaralhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12464817724312275528noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7309929059139673041.post-8172585350102754742010-01-27T16:02:03.591+02:002010-01-27T16:02:03.591+02:00Rabbi Eidenson Chazak V'amatz.
