Saving Torah is most important?

Hirshel 

I saw this yesterday in a new sefer on Reb MD Weissmandel, put out by a einikel. It has original droshos and new bits of info. They have 2 articles of Nisan Gordon in the Moment (a Yiddish newspaper in that era) who interviewed him in the hospital before his passing. In the Moment, they also have a article by Reb Lazer Wiezel, (it's probably Eli the one and only Auschwitz survivor...) they hide it .... in the copy you see that he cried about the shas that was printed in 1944 by the US Vaad Hatzalah organization and the money it took to print could have saved Jews - even that late. I heard this legend and hearsay forever  - that he was mad at RAK for that - I never wanted to believe it but now I see... look at what Reb Reuven said on that shas! Even though I think that according to dry Halocha he was not too wrong....saving Torah is above all..... (It seems like this was said at a Nitra Yeshiva dinner in 1956, shortly before his passing, when Hungarian Jews were waiting to get over the border and into safety during the revolution there. - HT)

    saving torah is more important than Jewish lives?! and its not like they were saving torah from complete elimination, as there were many places (like u.s. and israel) were torah was alive and well and enough shassen around to reprint it after the war.

  3. A modern day Yochanan ben Zakay. How much does a printing of Shas cost? It most likely would not have been significant enough to make a dent in actual hatzolah.

    and are we sure none of the hatzolah funds were used to buy Kotler his Shabbos kugel?

    Not sure what you mean by this.
    Rest assured that he did much much more than the folks from Crown hts , who were busy trying to get a library out while Warsaw burned in '39.

    This whole paragraph makes very little sense.Could ten thousand boys be saved with 25 thousand $$$?

    Maybe.If they had known how.
    Today that 25k would be 333k

    I guess in order to save the image of a certain Rosh, you will slash and smear a Person who devoted his life for the Klal, and Reb Michoel Ber you portray as naive.
    next should be Reb Reuven, who disagreed with the Rosh too on that matter

    Answer the question:
    Was an unbelievable amount of political goodwill and money spent in the beginning of the War , while Warsaw burned to try and get a library out??
    Answer the question.
    After come and preach to others who worked day and night for hatzola.


    If you or the blogmaster can't take the heat or truth, let them discuss the upcoming shlichim dinner

    Stupid group of people
