MOAG, take two!



Seems Like Nathan Kamenetsky has finally reprinted his previously banned biography of his illustrious father. The problem is that it seems that the only controversial parts removed were the ones where RAK refers to a Talmid interrupting his Shiur as a Poroh Adumoh.

I guess the Kotlers were the only ones who tried to clean up their patriarch's image after it was tarnished in the book. The derogatory references (at least by today's standards) to all others do not matter as long as Lakewood is appeased.

At least the jacket's still the same.

Strange world.

The arrogance of the Kotlers is difficult to comprehend. Where's the demand for the Kovod of others?
