<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">1. the whole enterprise is evil,
and the sitra achra will go to all lengths to fool the frum jews
who 'fell for it'. ie in this scenario the NK-satmar
position is the correct one , the DL jews fell in ,
the zionists are the erev rav/tools of the satan ; and all the non-frum
jews don't come into the cheshbon</font>
<br>

90 % of jews fell away from the torah derech, the frum
jews had not enough merit to bring mashiach. but churban always
is followed by respite. here, the task was to build a sheerit
lapleita. some saw this a holy task , others parve. in any case
, it was sufficient cause to cause irreversible
theological and practical pirud between supposedly torah jews --allowing
all sides to hate their brethren leshem shamayim.</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">this removes all sides' zchyos
,and it is truly chessed that it is allowed to stand</font>

<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">3. using the bilaam-iyov-yitro analogy,
it would seem that one extreme or the other should be the correct answer
[ ie either a holy enterprise or the work of the devil]. those
taking the iyovian approach of shev-val-tedaber clearly
are asking for trouble...</font>

<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">i am sure there are a million
other choices, though the RBSO has yet a different playbook....<br>
