Warning! This is a high-volume ping list.
I find it difficult to see this as a "misunderstanding"."The rabbi's lawyer made the mistake of threatening a federal lawsuit.Unless the rabbi's lawyer is an idiot,i find the excuse(it was just a mistake)disingenuous at best.A federal lawsuit should scare the daylights out of anyone with a modicum of sophistication.Why the backpedaling?Because"this has provided appropriate indignation from millions."I suspect rabbi and his attorney expected to get their way without a lot of fuss-kinda backfired-this time.
