  • Ridiculous!

    Isn’t this meant to be a mivtzoim article? “Photos: Hundreds of Tefillin at the Israeli Day Parade”

    A. of the many pictures here, i have to scroll through to find just a few of people putting on Tefillin, not to mention the many non-tznius pictures…!!

    B. I don’t see how we can feature bochurim doing Mivtzoim during the time of learning, something the Rebbe has never appreciated!!

    In conclusion, this article is out of place here.

  • TO RIDICULOUS

    YOU ARE 100% RIGHT. Y O U A R E A B S O LU T E L Y TOTALLY R I D I C U L O U S!! Rabbi Greenglass Olov hasholom once wrote a similar letter to the Rebbe regarding Lag B’omer parade preparations and the Rebbe, who had an extremely close relationship with Rabbi Greenglass TORE UP the letter and threw it away. You must not be a lubavitcher not to realize the importance of what these bochurim did. and just by the way I looked at ALL the pictures here and for some reason I didn’t seem to notice the lack of tznius. I guess it depends what you re looking for………
