Rav Belsky was not able to discuss the "FISH" issues with Rav Eliyashev-WHY?


Rav Eliyashev over the years had many issues with Rav Belsky's "Heteirim".

On Yudel Shain's visit to Rav Eliyashev in Elul, to discuss various Kashrus issues, Rav Eliyashev, Shlita told Yudel Shain that one may not rely on Rav Belsky's Heteirim as they are not based on the correct facts. Some of the Heteirim he mentioned was the oils transported by ships & the procedured cows that make the cows a treifah, therefore all Cholov stam is actually cholov treifah.

Specialists say that although not all fish is contaminated, there is no completely pure fish either. Helminth larvae live in fish ribs, and can be only seen with a microscope. Tapeworms and nematode worms and their larvae are contained in all types of fresh water and sea fish and only die during heat processing or freezing.

"The most frequent diseases raw foodists are exposed to are tapeworm disease and opisthorchiasis,” says Nikolai Frolov, MD. The first disease is caused by broad tapeworm that attacks intestines. The larvae penetrate the body with poorly processed Northern fish. The parasite quickly develops, within two to six weeks. It may grow to 18 meters long. People do not feel it at first, thinking that activity in their stomachs is flatulence, and mistaking increased appetite and anxiety for depression. Tapeworms actively lay eggs, and patients infect their families and coworkers.

"Opisthorchiasis is another unpleasant disease,” Frolov continued. “At an early stage patients have fever, their skin may turn yellow (parasites live in liver, gallbladder, bile ducts). Moscow medics are not always able to properly diagnose the disease and often mistake it for ARVI. Even tests sometimes cannot reveal the parasite. Meanwhile, patients get worse and develop strong pain in the right hypochondrium. If the disease is not diagnosed and treated, it will transform into cirrhosis. " Opisthorchiasis is much harder to treat than the tapeworm disease. The worms may reach 2 cm long and 8 to 9 mm wide. The liver inhibited by them is perforated.

Another potential disease of raw foodists is kidney-worm disease. This parasite lives in kidneys and penetrates the body with raw frog meat or fish. Moscow doctors do not know much about it and may treat patients from various other diseases while the worm destroys their kidneys.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dioctophyme_renale

Dioctophyme renale is commonly referred to as “giant kidney worm” because it is the largest helminth to parasitize humans and has the propensity to affect the kidneys. D. renale is distributed worldwide. It affects fish eating mammals, particularly mink and dogs. Human infestation is rare, but results in destruction of the kidneys. Upon diagnosis through tissue sampling, the only treatment is surgical excision.

http://www.isradiology.org/tropical_deseases/tmcr/chapter46/kidney.htm

D. renale is a large red worm (20 to 100-cm by 5 to 12-mm in the case of the females; the males are smaller, 14 to 20-cm.

Fresh-water frogs and fish are a frequent source of infection for humans, up to 50% of minnows being infected in some areas.

The smallest member of the catfish family, the Amazonian candiru, is a parasite that lodges itself in the urinary tracts of larger fish or, occasionally, soon-to-be-scarred-for-life humans.

Pearls are formed when parasites get inside an oyster. The oyster attacks the parasite by producing the mother of pearl compound that smothers the intruder.

the reason that rav belsky is not accepted in the home of rav eliyashiv is because he is a real person and is a genius. he knows science more than any person there and knows the metzius of things.

Parvicapsula is microscopic but the Canadian government's Cohen Commission will be studying over 30 different parasites that infect wild salmon.

http://www.commissioncohen.ca/en/pdf/DiscussionPaper.pdf#zoom=100

Diseases and parasites – When adult sockeye enter the Lower Fraser River, they are especially susceptible to the Parvicapsula minibicornis parasite, which can sometimes cause fatal kidney failure. The unusually early freshwater migration by late-run sockeye can also lead to high levels of pre-spawning mortality in certain years. In addition, sockeye smolts can be infected with Parvicapsula in the Strait of Georgia. The commission plans to engage a veterinary scientist to examine the impacts of this and 30 other parasites, and approximately 10 diseases, on Fraser River sockeye salmon in both freshwater and marine environments.

RE: Cholov Treifah-Rav Eliyashev says a Halacha in Shulchan Oruch does not need a letter.

Rav Belsky is welcome in the home of Rav eliyashev, shlita provided others are present to listen in to what Rav Eliyashev says, so its not taken out of context.

When Rav Belsky was contemplating to be "oiker-kedushin", Rav Eliyashev was going to come out with a letter against Rav Belsky in all areas of Halacha, so Rav Belsky backed down. There is no Sanhedrin today otherwise they would have dealt with this according to Rambam in Mamrim perk gimel.

Rabbi Belsky attacked R' Yudel's credibility? So what? So does every person exposed by R' Yudel for doing improper things.

Some personalities at the OU & elsewhere often drag out this defense of Rabbi Belsky that "no one even reaches his toes in learning".

Only after they are cornered are they modeh that Rav Elyashev is greater than him.

Being a big talmid chochom is not a license to do things that Rabbi Belsky is infamous for.

"tzadik yesod oylam"? What a farce!

Go observe the fixed dinei Torah where Rabbi Belsky joins forces with Mendel Epstein & Bryks to shake people down for money. Just the way he runs around the room and carries on like an angry gangster is enough to disgust any decent person. Rabbonim and roshei yeshiva who used to hold of him changed their opinion after observing this.

You are an Apikores. Implying that Reb Elyashiv shlita is not a real person and a genius and does not understand metzius.

Shame on you!!

Anonymous said...

Stop belittling Rav Elyashev that Belsky knows sciences, with the inference that Maran shlita does not.

You are using the same argument that the apikores Failed Shmarya uses all the time for every Rav Elyashev psak.

Rav Elyashev has all kinds of medical & scientific experts who he speaks to to know metzius.

http://www.politicsdaily.com/2010/06/15/nys-royal-wine-merchants-accused-of-peddling-pricey-fakes/

So begins Slate wine columnist Mike Steinberger's long investigative piece into the latest scandal in the wine world. Oliveros and Sokolin run a Manhattan wine shop, Royal Wine Merchants, that sold the most coveted bottles -- Petrus '21, Cheval Blanc '49 -- for thousands of dollars. But it appears that in many cases, they were selling counterfeits.

That's what billionaire Bill Koch alleges in a lawsuit -- just one of many the energy tycoon has filed since he began collecting wine. The source of the suspect bottles was a German wine collector-seller named Hardy Rodenstock, whom Koch has clashed with before. In fact, Koch's lawsuit against Rodenstock, who sold him fraudulent bottles that he claimed belonged to Thomas Jefferson, was the source of a recent book, "The Billionaire's Vinegar: The Mystery of the World's Most Expensive Bottle of Wine," by Benjamin Wallace.

That there's fraud in the wine business is no longer surprising. But increasingly, the revelations are sullying some of the wine world's most respected names. Michael Broadbent, who headed wine sales at Christie's auction house, vouched for the so-called Jefferson bottles. And Steinberger makes clear that the world's most famous wine critic, Robert Parker, was (at the very least) used by Oliveros and Sokolin, who would share their purported rarities with Parker, whose ratings could drive the price even higher. (Steinberger writes that it's unclear whether Parker himself was offered fakes; the two scammers could have given Parker the real thing, and the pawned off counterfeit wine on their customers.)

For whatever reason, Steinberger doesn't mention the recent case of Rudy Kurniawan, another high-flying counterfeiter who has disappeared from the wine world (and apparently from the United States) since Koch filed suit against him last year, though the fact that he had plenty of material to work with without mentioning him just shows how rampant wine fraud has become. What's most discomfiting is that it's taking a litigious outsider like Koch to expose the fraud, which many in the wine world would rather not came to light.

http://www.slate.com/id/2256775/pagenum/all/#p2

But it's an ongoing dispute between Koch and a Bay Area collector named Eric Greenberg that offers the clearest indication that Royal was selling fraudulent wines

Koch filed a lawsuit alleging that Greenberg knowingly sold him seven counterfeit wines at an auction in New York

i chas v'cholil did not try to minimize the gadol hador in any way but it is well known that rav eliyashiv trusts some close people to him such as rav karp when it comes to figure out the metzius of certain things. take for example the sheitel issue. rav eliyashiv sent dayan dunner to india to be mivarer the metzius and he came back with some answers. together with rav karp they decided that it was a problem. rav karp being the zoriz he is went around telling people that it is avodah zoroh. they made a big bonfire in kiryat sefer and burned tens of thousands of dollars worth of sheitlach. we are talking about yungerleit who nebach cannot afford this. in the end it was mevurer that it is not so poshut that there was a problem at all. this is just one example and there are many more. rav belsky on the other hand is much more thought out and will think befoore he is matir or assur something.

Yeah, Rabbi Belsky is very "thought out" to create heterim for the OU and money for himself in fixed dinei Torah. I have never met the man by the way. I hear this from all kinds of rabbonim.

The 'riener' Emes said...

If yo did'nt hear it from Reb Elyashiv Shlit'a with YOUR OWN EARS,it means nothing.
There are all kind of 'eid m'pi eid's and all kind of people with agendas who quote Reb Elyashiv to accomodate thier issues.
So if there is no letter in HIS handwriting or a Sefer that HE HIMSELF wrote and published it should be assumed to be 'shtusim v'havolim'

Just the facts said...

Rav Elyashev went against Belsky - bichsav - over the fake bittul kiddushin.

Rabbi Gershon Tannenbaum is not the most reliable source but he writes in the Jewish Press that Rav Elyashev told his grandson Aryeh not to speak to Belsky about anisakis either.

Rav Shain, please tell us what happened at the meeting yesterday between R Miller and R Bess. I heard that a rov from Tartikov came with loads of researched information and totally shluged up all of R Bess's ta'anos. What was R Millers maskona?

Belsky is also involved in beatings up of men like Rabbi Rubin. he is a known gangster.

Rav Shlomo Miller is a much much deeper thinker. he obliterated and pulverised belsky akirah of the kiddushin le'mafreiah.

izzie Belsky claimed that since the man was going to zoynas before getting married he had a chazokoh of having AIDS and he was not a bar kiddushin. Rav Miller countered, let's test him, no HIV, no AIDS.
Where do you rely on a chazokoh where you can be machriah a sofek completely 100% Izzie?
2ndly, if he had an unverified chazokoh of HIV, THEN SO DID SHE AFTER BEING HIS WIFE, SO SHE IS NOT A BAS KIDDUSHIN, dioes not need a get since it is ossur for her to trap someone by marrying them.
there are many geniuses all over. some build atom bombs to murder thousands, spome build concentration camps and perform experiments like yosef mengele, others build financial products that have brought on a global depression.
genius and integrity are very highly in versely correlated. tell that to the 1st nobel laureate of rabbinic corruption, israel belsky.
