Continuing the discussion from Areivim. The Toldos Avraham Yitzchak
Rebbe<BR>made a series of statements against non-kosher phones. One of the
things<BR>that he is reported to have said was that if they find a non-kosher
phone<BR>on Shabbos they can be mechallel shabbos to destroy it. He also said
that<BR>the destroyers would not have to pay for the destroyed
phone.<<<BR><BR></FONT></FONT></DIV>

<DIV>Someone else posted to Areivim that the Rebbe did not say you should
destroy the phone on Shabbos, he said you can move the phone (even though it's
muktza -- presumably move it with a shinui) and hide it somewhere, and destroy
it after Shabbos.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I myself wonder if he really meant what he said literally. We have a
long tradition -- especially in Israel -- of people saying extreme things, very
heatedly, as a kind of rhetorical flourish, not really expecting to be taken
literally.</DIV>
