Back on topic:

As you are obviously not aware “Ein Shaliach Li’dvar Aveirah.” doesn’t usually apply to military orders

No, I’m not aware. I’m a grosse Am Ha’Aretz. Site your source.

…. since soldiers are trained and drilled to obey orders and can be punished or even executed (in war time) for refusing to obey order.

This doesn’t nullify “Ein Shaliach”. In a best case scenario, this would be “Anus Rachmana Patrei.”

This is all beside the fact that Rabin received no “Hatra’ah” nor was he ever tried, let alone in front of a Halachic Bet Din.

As far as my blog you are clearly not qualified to judge its merits if you can so confidently invoke ein shliach ledvar aveira in regards to military orders. The blog has a Chareidi dayan in Yerushalaim as the main posek

Yes, you repeat that ad nauseum everywhere you post. People wouldn’t buy chickens with an anonymous hechsher but are expected to bed down with Gilui Arayot under such dubious claims to anonymity.

everything I write in it in regards to halacha is based on the words of our sages and even the Avi Shafran spokesman of the Agudat Israel of America of all people agreed in a newspaper interview that what I promote is permitted albeit not normative.

You left out what Rabbi Shafran first had to say about you, and I quote:

“He should call Agudah’s volunteer services department and we’ll help him get a life.”

How convenient to forget his introductory words. But who can blame you?!

In any case, Shafran’s full quote is:

“While conceding that the practice is not a sin, Rabbi Shafran said “many things are permitted but not engaged in. This is not anything that is normative in the Jewish world. The definition of a marriage is between a man and one wife, like the first man and his wife.”

In any case, this has been well covered by such fascinating and heileger blogs as FailedMessiah, etc.

As far as it being lame or nor kol haposel be mumo posel just look at your very own screen name ’shy guy’ how lame can that be?

I’m lovin’ it!

However, there is no known testimony that Rabin himself actually fired a weapon with his own hands against the Altalena and even if he did, no verification that he actually hit someone.

And as you must know, “Ein Shaliach Li’dvar Aveirah.” Giving the orders to murder is not the equivalent of doing the actual murdering.

Your halachic analysis here is as lame as what your blog attempts to promote.

PS. By the way halachikaly speaking Yigal Amir
is exempt from punishment for killing Rabin who as has been pointed out in comments above volunteered to shoot innocent Jews on the Altalena .
According to Torah law someone who kills a murderer is exempt from punishment in human court.

I know that Israel has no death penalty, but there are a few folks out there who need it, and Amir is one of them.

So was Rabin, for his giving the order (Ben Gurion’s BTW) to fire on the Altalena, murdering 17 people in cold blood.

Or has “just following orders” become a legitimate excuse?

17 people, Jews killed by Jews. Not bad for one afternoon’s work.

I know that Israel has no death penalty, but there are a few folks out there who need it, and Amir is one of them.

And please, no one respond with “if the shoe fits.”
