Everyone’s Talking About Harry

Rabbi Yaakov Menken writes on Cross-Currents.com:

I’m not sure why so many Jewish spokespersons pushed to be among the most prominent critics. As already said, condemnations were pouring in from around the world. We don’t need to antagonize the person who is fourth in line for the Crown of the British Empire over this admittedly dumb choice. Our Sages caution us to be careful with our words, and we could afford to have him as a friend.

Or is everyone talking about Yaakov?
