The real world
In the real world in which we reside, Islam is dominated by a relative minority of radicals for whom the existence of Israel is repugnant and unacceptable. [...]wishful thinking underwrote the Oslo Accords and their \"sacrifices for peace,\" the creation of the Palestinian Authority, the expulsion of Jews from Gaza, the tolerance of the Hamas terror infrastructure, and directly led to the atrocities of October 7 and the multifront wars Israel is now waging. Hamas is more powerful today in Judea and Samaria than is the Palestinian Authority, itself rampant with Jew hatred. [...]we can hasten that day of peace not by renouncing our heritage in the futile quest of winning over moderates without power or influence anywhere, but by deepening our connection to Torah, mitzvot, and the land of Israel.
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
The Times accuses our synagogue, Congregation Bnai Yeshurun, of \"meddling in foreign policy\" by hosting a housing fair for potential new residents of the biblical lands of Judea and Samaria in modern Israel (editorial, March 4).
The leader sets the tone
Part of the reason for this obvious flight from personal responsibility is the 24/7 news cycle that harps on any mistake and forever hounds the confessor. The leader sets the tone for his society, and his admissions (that are just recognition of his own limitations) can influence his peers to embrace the same value. The average person can avoid sin through vigilance and self-control; the leader is more vulnerable, and rightly so, as he sets the moral tone for the entire society. Rabbi Pruzansky is the spiritual leader of Congregation Bnai Yeshurun, Teaneck, New Jersey, and the author of 'Tzadka Mimeni: The Jewish Ethic of Personal Responsibility'(c) Copyright Jerusalem Post.
Letters
Sir, - [Hillel Halkin] needs to be reminded of the difference between a secular Jew and one who converted non- halachically. A secular Jew is still recognized as a Jew and can participate in a minyan; if a woman, her children are Jewish. Not so with the latter. The difference between the two is at least as great as that between a Jew who would give his life to sanctify God's name and one whose prayer book doesn't contain the word \"God.\" Sir, - Prof. Sarna (\"The ever-vanishing American Jew,\" June 4) writes that the American Jewish community has often benefited from challenges and suggests that perhaps \"today, as so often before, American Jews will find creative ways to maintain and revitalize American Judaism.\" Sir, - Jonathan D. Sarna overlooks the visceral damage done to the American Jewish community by the United Jewish Communities (formerly United Jewish Appeal). The survey this organization produced recently regarding the condition of the Jewish community in the US is a cesspool of deceit and self-delusion. According to the widely accepted findings of this survey, the American Jewish community is full of strength and diversity, and everything is OK.
