The 12 year old who was born three years after Gimmel Tammuz 5754, turns to his mentor who was only seven at that time. Revealing the most powerful sentiments I ever heard describing the power of our most revered Rebbe.

MOSCOW, RUSSIA [AP] — Russia told a U.S. court on Friday that judges have no authority to tell the country how to handle sacred Jewish documents held in its state library that were seized by the Nazi and Soviet armies.
The documents are at the center of a lawsuit brought by members of Chabad-Lubavitch, which follows the teachings of Eastern European rabbis and emphasizes the study of the Torah. The group is suing Russia in U.S. court to recover thousands of manuscripts, prayers, lectures and philosophical discourses by leading rabbis dating back to the 18th century.
