Op-Ed Response: Arming Shluchim a Bad Idea
by Anonymous
A few days ago, an article by the Algemeiner’s Dovid Efune was published on crownheights.info, advocating for Shluchim to arm themselves with firearms. The article intimated that perhaps the tragedy that took place in Mumbai in 2008, where Rabbi Gabi and Rivky Holtzberg HYD were murdered, may have been averted. The author points to recent threats discovered against Chabad Houses in Thailand and Azerbaijan, and to the fact that the previous Chabad Rebbe, Rabbi Yosef Y. Schneersohn, carried a revolver.
