I hear you. And in my Google search, I did come across the King hearings. And he could only have those hearings because the Republicans control the house.

If the same things were happening but the target was Jewish Americans, synagogues, and Halacha, you and a lot of other people would (rightfully) be screaming at the top of your lungs that it come to an immediate stop, you wouldn’t be saying, “Oh, well, let’s just wait and see.”

First, it did happen in the thirties and fifties, although it didn’t touch halacha because many Jews didn’t care about halacha. And yes, that is exactly what happened, we waited and voted them out of office. What alternatives did we have? What alternatives do you have now?

So what happened between the fifties and now? The sixties. Now you can organize as many protests and demonstrations as you wish, and please do. There are many TV networks, a buzzing internet. Those were not options in the late forties and fifties—or it was, but it was the same as choosing to get your skull cracked open.

I’m not saying, let’s wait and see. But I am saying this could all be over in a few months.
