Ebreo", di Bompiani.
Non dare troppo retta a quelle robacce. Io ho visto con i miei occhi dei
cibi con marchio kasher dove dentro poteva esserci anche il sangue del
maiale: ma erano per le mense esotiche dei goyim!

L'autore di quest'intervento e' riuscito infatti a dire in due righe che il
piu' stimato degli Ebrei italiani, Rav Elio Toaff:
1) Non e' capace di scrivere un libro che esprima posizioni autenticamente
ebraiche. Poiche' di quel libro ho letto la SECONDA edizione, debbo arguire
che egli non si rende conto dei propri errori nemmeno quando deve
riesaminarne le conseguenze.
2) Ha una dottrina per i suoi confratelli ebrei ed un'altra per i Goyim.
Questa e' la piu' grave delle tradizionali accuse degli antisemiti, in
quanto scredita le repliche alle altre accuse come frutto di menzogna.
Qui non viene solo lesa l'onorabilita' di una persona: si porta l'intero
Mississippi al mulino degli antisemiti.
Ciao.

Mississippi al mulino degli antisemiti.
Cerca un vecchio messaggio di David Costa dell'anno scorso, che aveva
proprio per tema loshon hora. Mi sembra che ci fu anche un tread, ma non
ricordo bene. Li' ci sono degli ottimi approfondimenti!
Ciao Mississipppppi!!!

 peccato dappoco.
Sorry , non significa diffamazione.  Lashon Hora è qualcosa di ben piu
complesso come ci insegna the Chafetz Chaim stesso :
In the latter part of the nineteenth century and early part of the twentieth
century, there lived a man named Rabbi Yisrael Meir Kagan. He lived in the
Polish town of Radin. He was known as the "Chafetz Chaim", which means: the one
who wants life. He was known in this way because that was the name of a book he
wrote. The book was about the laws of avoiding "Lashon Hara"- gossip. The name
of the book was based on a passage in "Tehilim" (Psalms) 34 which says: "Who is
the one that desires life...guard your tongue from evil, and your lips from
speaking deceit." Rabbi Yisrael was a man who truly practiced what he preached.
He was beloved as a pious sage who would not speak ill of his fellow.
Once, he was on a train returning to Radin, and he found himself sitting next
to a man. Wanting to strike up a conversation, Rabbi Yisrael asked the man why
he was headed for Radin. "To see the great tzaddik (pious one), the Chafetz
Chaim", answered the man. Rabbi Yisrael was a most modest person, and he
started to protest that the "Chafetz Chaim" was not such a tzaddik. The man,
unaware who it was that was sitting next to him, became irate. How could this
fellow degrade such a holy man as the Chafetz Chaim? Not knowing how to resolve
the situation Rabbi Yisrael simply remained silent.
When the man came to Radin’ he went to see the "Chafetz Chaim". Upon seeing
that the man who had sat next to him on the train was the "Chafetz Chaim", he
was very embarrassed. "Forgive me Rebbe, for insulting you", he begged. "No,"
said Rabbi Yisrael, "it was my fault". "From this I will learn a new rule in
the laws of not speaking "Lashon Hara", continued the rabbi. "From this we see
that one should not even speak ill of oneself! I spoke ill of myself, and look
what came of it."
