From Days Gone By: Senator and Chasidim Rub Elbows
The late U.S. Senator Ted Kennedy (D-Mass.), brother of President John F. Kennedy, attends a Chabad event in Washington D.C. in the mid 1980s. Near him stand Rabbi Shalom Posner, leader of the Chabad community in Pittsburgh, and Rabbi Yisroel Deren, director of Chabad of Connecticut.

Are there any of the 7 mitzvos that he didn’t break? I suppose he probably never ate ever min hachai (lobsters don’t count).

I spoke with someone who grew up in one of the wealthiest families in Brookline, MA. When I asked whether her family ever associated with the Kennedy family, she looked at me aghast and said, “Who do you think we were?! Do you think we’d ever spend time with such a despicable family?!”
It’s sad to see such holiness in a pictures with such filth.
If I remember correctly
that visit was arranged by Rabbi Fogelman OBM from Worcester who had very close ties with the Kennedys..
Yisroel Deren at that time was a shliach in massachusetts…

The comments about Kennedy are irrelevant!
Milhouse
How are they irrelevant? The whole point of the picture is Lubavitchers associating with this lowlife.
