Comments on: The “Rav” Exposed as an Outright Liar! http://blog.authenticjudaism.org/2009/09/the-rav-exposed-as-an-outright-liar/ Expressing Authentic Jewish Views on Just About Everything Mon, 21 Jun 2010 13:29:48 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0 By: dash http://blog.authenticjudaism.org/2009/09/the-rav-exposed-as-an-outright-liar/comment-page-1/#comment-583 dash Sun, 22 Nov 2009 21:08:13 +0000 http://blog.authenticjudaism.org/2009/09/the-rav-exposed-as-an-outright-liar/#comment-583 I saw elsewhere in a book about him (I grew up in a MO neighborhood) that he went with everything the Brisker Rav said except a few things, including Zionism. This seems to indicate that he did admit to Rav Soloveitchick being anti-zionist. Are one of these misquotes, or did something change? Because at times it seems like he honestly did believe he was doing what was necessary, and at other times... we know what was said other times. He and R' Kook are sitll mysteries to me. May Moshiach come now, and the fogs of confusion finally be lifted.

As to how <strong>I</strong> Know what the <strong>authentic</strong> stand of the Brisker Rav, you are mistaken (very) in assuming that I have just picked this up from the wind. Before going into details about the Bisker Rav's opinion regarding Zionism, I ask you: If I <strong>prove </strong>to you that my assessment of his opinion is correct, what <strong>difference </strong>will it make in your life? What will you <strong>change </strong>about yourself? <strong>Empty </strong>debates are beyond the scope of this blog. So tell me what will be gained if I present my proofs to you? Will you put your money where your mouth is? I am quite sure that JBS knew very well the true stand of the Holy Brisker Rav, and that is exactly what makes him such an outright liar.

Did you know the Brisker rov? It doesn't seem that you're qualified to argue with "JB" on this point. You definitely cannout use this as proof that he is a liar. Some people told you that the brisker rov held this and he said the brisker rov held that. You can say you think the other people's version is more likely bit that doesn't count as proof that JB is a liar. “Anyone who knew the Brisker Rav knew his vehement disgust with Zionism and everything connected to it”.
