	Smoking & Jewish Law
		Namely, that based upon present research and the stated argument of Rabbi Moshe Feinstein, the smoking of cigarettes constitutes a blatant violation of the Torah's commandment against inflicting harm on oneself and hence is absolutely prohibited according to Jewish Law.
		In the latter case, says Rabbi Feinstein, no liability exists for the accused, even where it is patently clear that were a competent court extant, that he would be adjudged responsible for the fines in question.
		Rabbi Moshe Feinstein, however, takes pointed exception to this interpretation of the Rambam, and argues that the Rambam simply means to exhort people to abandon potentially deleterious habits, and not to prohibit them outright.

	Halacha File: Must Diaspora Jews Make Aliyah - Part 1
		Rav Moshe Feinstein was asked whether one should move to Israel in accordance with the view of the Ramban (to BeMidbar 33:53 and Mitzvah 4 of the positive Mitzvot omitted by the Rambam in his enumeration of the 613 Mitzvot), who asserts that even in "our days," every Jew is required to live in Israel.
		Rav Feinstein seeks to prove this point from the fact that the Rambam (Hilchot Melachim 5:9) writes that it is prohibited to leave Israel but does not state that one is prohibited to reside outside Israel.
		Interestingly, Rav Feinstein does not consider the impact of the recent establishment of the State of Israel (his responsum was written in 1952) in either a positive or negative direction.
