I HOPE ISREAL WINS THE WAR

BOTTOM LINE!
November 17, 2012 11:56 pm

CUT TO THE CHASE…AD MOSAI WITH BITTER TEARS, FROM THE DEPTHS OF OUR HEART!!! PLEASE LET US ALL CUT TO THE CHASE; WE DO NEED TO FIGHT & PROTECT OUR SELVES,WE DO NEED TO INCREASE IN TZNIUS, ACHDUS, DAVEN WITH KAVANA, T’SHUVA IN GENERAL, (which can take merely a moment) BUT PLEASE REMEMBER THE REBBE’S BOTTOM LINE: WE HAVE DONE EVERYTHING WE COULD, NOW ALL THIS IS LEFT IS TO PREP. OURSELVES & THE WORLD FOR MOSHIACH… DO WHAT YOU CAN HERE & NOW TO BRING MOSHIACH, WHATEVER IT TAKES, MAYBE THERE WILL BE 10 AKSHONIM OR EVEN 3 WHO… Read more »

May the almighty avenge her blood and the family find comfort.

To those theorizing above, I can only cry, where were you during the gaza expulsion and surrender ? I spent almost dollar I had, I nearly lost my business, I gave up months of my life to a real stark visible danger to all of eretz yisrael!!

Why do you all talk only of doing torah and mitzvos and mivtzoim when the focus also must be on eretz yisrael..

Open karasi v’en oneh and read what the Rebbe said “Shlaimus haam haaretz and shlaimus hatorah”

One interpretation
November 16, 2012 1:00 pm

As to the question of what the 1 Kislev coincidence means, there are different possible explanations, but here’s one: There’s a statement in the Gemara that the dead of a tzaddik atones for the generation (Moed Katan 28a). That is, sometimes there is a judgment hanging over the Jewish people, or over particular Jews, and sometimes Hashem in His mercy picks a tzaddik to die instead of allowing a greater amount of death and suffering to happen to other Jews. The shluchim killed on Rosh Chodesh Kislev illustrate that engaging in kiruv is a great act of righteousness that has… Read more »

Israel shouldn’t concentrate all its efforts on Gaza… this might be a ploy by Stupid Iran to divert attention from north, where Iran can at anytime send in nuclear missiles. Israel would have its hands full.

A clear message to us!! sorry i wont be politically correct here) when it came to saving lives the Rebbe wasn't either politically correct, & made sure ppl knew hoe to stop these TRAGEDIES!!
November 16, 2012 10:42 am

true there are no good explanations wrote: however where the Rebbe specifically said there are things we in NY (& Chutz-Laaretz) can do to prevent blood shed & tragedies like these from re-occurring, we need to take his words seriously! its for our own well being that the Rebbe alerted us as to WHAT WE CAN DO to stop such things & instead bring all sorts of blessings to our family & communities: 1. Daily Chitas Rambam (even 5min is better than nothing) 2. Regular du“ch ch”hn to Aseh Lecha Rav (personal mentor) 3. Make time daily to be involved… Read more »

Dont forget Hakadosh Baruch Hu !!!! Torah, HKB”H and Am Yisrael are One and Chai Vekayam… Time to get a Torah values Government in Israel, everyone should vote to remove Netanyahu and Barack and put in someone like Feiglin, he’ll take care of Gaza the right way….

existential question
November 16, 2012 10:19 am

as number 3 said…two shluchos murdered on the same day as we celebrate the Rebbe getting well…..What message is this for us? Is there not even ONE leader among us who will stand up and speak and give us some chizuk and sorely needed guidance?

#3 is correct. I think it’s an achdus issue. Chabad leaders – where are you??? Help us to get it together!!!!

Thank You COL

For giving her the due recognition!!

November 16, 2012 9:54 am

I feel like it was yesterday when Nomi, Shaina , Mimi & I. Set out to travel to Rishikesh unable to buy train tickets due to Indias craziness we headed to their Chabad House to figure it out…While helping us figure out the safest way to go ie. buying a train ticket in Bazar or taxing?! Us being starved as well they served us & other Israeli backpackers warm, delicious dinner (if i remember correctly it was really late at night..) Yes, thats when i got to meet the Tzadekes Mira a’h & family. Wow the lives that they live.-… Read more »

Dear Fellow Chassidim, Two major tragedies have befallen our fellow Shluchim on this auspicious day of Rosh Chodesh Kislev. V’Hachai Yiten El Libo. Please fellow Chassidim stop the pirud. Let’s concentrate on the things that unite us. We have ONE Rebbe, ONE 770, and ONE Tafkim – to do the rotzon of the Rebbe. There may be chassidim who fulfill the Rotzon differently than yourself, but they are still OUR fellow Chassidim; they still have a place in the Rebbe Shul; we can still unite for Teffilos downstairs in 770; we can still attend their simchos; we can still entertain… Read more »
