And this is the same Benny Lau that is a nephew of R, Yisroel Meir Lau??? What a shanda!!! Where did this shmendrick get smicha? Wal-Mart?
All politics aside; They totally rocked this and I can’t stop laughing.
To TorasMoshe
Rav Binyamin Lau is a highly respected rav and talmid chacham who is a musmach of Yeshiva Har Etzion and now teaches at Beit Morasha in Yerushalayim. He has written many seforim and also lectures throughout the world on yiddeshkeit. His outreach to this Japanese evangelical group that is a big supporter of EY in a country where EY does not have many friend is not unlike the outreach efforts of the frum tzibur in EY and the U.S. to Christian evangelical groups who support EY. Presumably, you got sechel at a Walmart blue light special given your mindless and demeaning comments about a respected rav.who is doing great work for EY and yiddeshkeit around the world.
