b'One of the most complex characters of post war Jewish history was undoubtedly Meir Kahane (1932-1990). Controversial yet lover of the Jewish people, provocative yet charismatic, endorsed violence yet known for his brilliance and sense of humor, yeshiva educated talmid chacham yet trained Jewish militias to patrol the streets of New York, author of endless articles on Jewish activism yet also a sportswriter and Yankees fan. So many facets and even contradictions. His problematic legacy continues to hover over Jewish society till today.\\nBorn into a rabbinic and Zionist family and educated at Mir Brooklyn, he went to a short stint in the rabbinate in Queens. He later went on to found the Jewish Defense League (JDL), a controversial organization that was outspoken about combating anti Semitism and active in other Jewish causes as well.\\xa0\\n\\xa0\\n\\nSubscribe To Our Podcast on:\\n\\xa0\\nPodBean:\\xa0https://jsoundbites.podbean.com/\\n\\xa0\\n\\nFollow us on Twitter or Instagram at\\xa0@Jsoundbites\\nYou can email Yehuda at\\xa0yehuda@yehudageberer.com'
