Chabad.org has confirmed that the Shluchim have died. Baruch Dayan Emes

Question
November 28, 2008 11:01 am

Are the shluchim american or israeli?

Not good news
November 28, 2008 10:55 am

I hate to be negative but the confict at the Chabad House was over some time ago. If there was good news they would have released it by now. Long delays only means bad news. Usually to give the authoroties time to inform the families. We need a miracle NOW!

Miracle?/?/

Have faith…. we’ll hear good news right before shabbas

THEY MUST KNOW
November 28, 2008 5:30 am

Surely if someone was sent out – then they must have had even a 30 second conversation with him. Someone must know something and they’re not telling!

IBN update
November 28, 2008 3:50 am

A Jewish man was sent out to get food. If he did not return in a certain time other hostages would be shot. The Police obtained food from a local resteraunt, and sent him back with in a few minutes.

News
November 28, 2008 3:38 am

For anyone still up. IBN just reported that that 4th and 5th floor of the Chabad house have been cleared. B”H we will have good news soon.

crazy way of reporting!
November 28, 2008 2:14 am

The conflicting reports is as follows:
the 4 bodies are the 4 “bodies” that the nanny saw while running out of the building. The 10 rescued people are the 7 people from the neighboring building, the nanny, the cook, and the baby! There is no confirmation of ANYTHING yet – zug tehillim un tracht gut!

November 28, 2008 12:47 am

i think that report was from last night, but not true…

Think Positive
November 28, 2008 12:45 am

I just read on Shmais that in times like this the Rebbe said we must keep our thoughts positive.
This means that keeping our thought positive, along with our teffilos, we can assist in steering the course of events towards a positive outcome.

no confirmation
November 28, 2008 12:43 am

i am on cnn-ibn live and they are still to rescue them. unless i don’t understand? have they been rescued?

B"H
November 28, 2008 12:33 am

i just heard on ibnlive that they are still inside, i don’t see any substantiated reports that anyone has been rescued overnight

the 12:25 update should become true now!!!
November 28, 2008 12:33 am

But IBN just said at 12:38 “At least 4 people are inside, including the Rabbi and his wife…”

Indian press: Shuchim Killed
The Indian newspaper “Economist Times” is reporting that Rabbi Gavriel Holtzberg, and his wife Rivka, have been killed in the Terrorist attack on the Chabad House in Mombai. The newspaper is considered credible, but let’s hope that the information is erroneous. According to the report, Rabbi Holtzberg and his wife were murdered by the terrorists. The terrorists, however, spared their two-year old son and a maid. Chabad.info has so far been unable to confirm the report, as there is no other source for this story

There is no kosher food or minyan in Mumbai, so i went to the Chabad house. They have 3 minyanim a day and after every meal the shaliach and his wife serve meals. There are 20 to 50 people eating there per meal, mostly traveling Israelis and businessmen, many frei.

November 27, 2008 1:57 pm

(IsraelNN.com) Indian television reported Thursday night all the Israeli hostages were rescued Thursday night from the Nariman House building where Mumbai’s Chabad House is located. Indian commandos had entered the building, said the reporter, and were in the process of clearing the floors of terrorists as they went along.

Go to Google NewsHostages freed in Mumbai 8 minutes ago Indian special forces have raided two buildings in Mumbai to free hostages taken by terrorists who massacred more than 100 people in a series of co-ordinated attacks. A state official said the siege had ended at Mumbai’s Taj Mahal Palace hotel and the last three attackers were killed, while eight hostages were freed from the nearby headquarters of a Jewish outreach group. Explosions and gunshots still shook India’s financial capital almost 24 hours after the attacks by Muslim militants began. Authorities said 119 people died and 300 others were injured… Read more »

Indian commandos stormed the building and managed to free all ten, although the condition and identities of the hostages is unclear. Israeli TV reported that one of the hostages had been forced at gunpoint to call the Israeli embassy in New Delhi with the captors’ demand for the release of Islamic terrorists from Indian jails. One of the gunmen had phoned an television channel to say he would release hostages held there if… Read more »

In USA tomorrow is the biggest shopping day of the year. If the crisis continues, G-d forbid, mivtzoyim and distibuting kapitel chof in English and/Hebrew to pray for hostages, if G-d forbid they are not saved by then.

Calling our constituency to say tehillim besides our own tehilim
Geula and yeshua for all hostages should be a kiddush hashem and kiddush lubavitch and an explanation to the world of the geual and the Rebbe MH”M’s power

November 27, 2008 12:46 pm

In the words of the Rebbe we must pray .

” Now we know a G-d that is at once both beyond all things and within them. In truth, there is nothing else but him.”

November 27, 2008 11:33 am

I think, one way to help the shluchim there, is that we, all of Chabad, make a strong resolution not to be held as hostages by certain elements within Chabad. That we start to do what the Rebbe wants of us and that we make the resolution now, as I just did. I called up my staff the other shluchim and told them that enough of gulus is enough, and that now is the time to make good resolutions. We are going to do everything we can and follow all the Rebbe’s directives and not allow money and other foolishness… Read more »
