Description

The Kovno Rav's decision to provide a list of those who were ill to the Germans. Was he right or wrong? R' Solveitchik's comment on this. A different answer when Klal Yisrael is threatened than when individuals are. Queen Esther. Esther Farbstein and the Kovno list. R' Rakeffet disagrees. The hijacking to Jordan including R' Hutner. Belzer Rebbe and his brother are saved. Additional comments on men acting terribly with women (reaction to Walder). Kastner train reaches Bergen Belsen. Jungreis family is saved. The Satmar Rav's rescue is either celebrated or attacked over the years. He provided hope for those with him. Why he moved from Switzerland to Jerusalem and why he left Palestine to the U.S. Agudat Israel's hard feelings toward Satmar.
