Re: ‘Village Voice’ Considers Bad Orthodox Landlords

And that is just some of the Orthodox ones.

Consider some of the not very Orthodox ones, like the notorious Perec Rachman a jew from Poland who settled in England after the Second War as a refugee, a nightmare in human form right who would not be out of place in one of Elie Wiesel fictional autobiographical works. 

Two of his prostitute girl-friends were instrumental in bringing down the Conservative government of Harold Macmillan because of the Profumo scandal (John Profumo, Secretary of State for War of Profumo scandal notoriety). The 1958 race riots in Notting Hill in West London (England) were due to the intolerable and subhuman conditions abusive landlords, of which Rachman was the biggest, had placed an immigrant population which at that time had virtually no legal rights.

How Rachman, a war refugee who arrived in England penniless after the war (except perhaps for war loot) was able to build an empire and acquire the kind of influence he did, should be a subject of interest for sociologists.

A list of misdeeds could extend for pages and many questions would necessarily remain unanswered because wrestling the truth out of someone like Rachman would be like wrestling with a ghost.

What sort of TRUTH is it that crushes the freedom to seek the truth?
