With your logic we wouldnt be having this discussion, the rabbi would also have stayed quiet 🙂
People might think this appropriate behaviour for chabadniks. Its not! Your cutting off your nose despite your face. The point is valid but you immeditaley lose the possibility of ever engaing the massive amounts of jews that have different political views. Think of how many potential mitzvis baalei teshuvah you can enstrange with a non mivtzoim related act such as this. Its the reason we ultimately saw the rebbe back down from the mihu yehudi crusade and other such issues (and they were inifinitely more fundemental to yiddishkeit) vedal.
A Lubavitcher may have his own political opinions, but not in the name of Chabad as in a whole.
If theres nothing nice to say, why then just stay quiet
Chabad and Israeli politics??? No, no, and no. Go away from that
Shmuley. Thank you. Courages. We all should learn from your boldness and strength. Al yaivosh mipnay… Folks, stand-up for your people.
A shliach
its a big mistake that people are not standing up for eretz yisroel and jews in eretz yisroel like the netuary karta who claim its not part of the jewish people or the torah the time has come to realize that the people and the land of eretz yisroel represents the jewish people in a tangible sense and the sooner people get the idea the better it will be
lead the train dont wait for it to leave the station
MR. # 12:
WHO SAY THAT RABBI HECHT DOESN’T INVEST HIS ENERGY INTO PUTTING TEFILIN ON PEOPLE AS WELL?
Invest that much energy in putting tefillin on people and the world would be a better place. Now you are politically maligned and for what?
Great job!
cowardly. what a gr8 lesson we all should learn.
why did you listen to him ?
and thats the hecht spirit!!!
Someone has to tell it as it is!
When is the upshernish?
If there were only more of you!
Let’s stand up to anti-semitism just as the world stands up to racism.
I THINK YOU HAVE MADE US ALL VERY PROUD!
i love your courage and your being about to be so forth right in your remarks. what a light you have been!
thank-you.
Here is a Rabbi who is not scared to stand up for the truth.
This is such an incredible kiddush hashem!
Way to go Rabbi Hecht!
