“..However here in the United States we have a different audience and a youth which radically differs from the type whom Rabbi Hirsch had addressed originally...” -The Rebbe
The following is a very unique letter of the Rebbe. From the year 1962 to a Professor at Yeshiva University, in which the Rebbe explains the nature of today's American Jewish youth and why they can't relate to Rabbi Samson Rafael Hirsch's (“The Father of Modern German Orthodoxy”) approach to Judaism of “Torah v'Derech Eretz” .

"I must touch upon another, and even more delicate, matter concerning the teachings of Rabbi Samson Raphael Hirsch whom you mentioned in your letter. There has been a tendency lately to apply his approach in totality, here and now In U.S. America While it is understandable that the direct descendents of Rabbi Hirsch or those who were brought up in that philosophy should want to disseminate his teachings.

NEWTON, MA — A fast-growing Orthodox Jewish community that has battled the city for nearly five years scored a major victory last week, defeating the last municipal obstacle to building a 12,000-square-foot synagogue in a residential neighborhood in Newton Highlands.
By a vote of 19 to 3, the Board of Aldermen approved Beth Menachem Chabad's plan to provide just nine parking spaces alongside its new center at 349 Dedham St., at least 60 fewer spaces than zoning rules would generally require.

Illinois Becomes Latest State to Mandate Moment of Silence in Schools
SPRINGFIELD, IL — Illinois’ state House of Representatives voted Thursday to override Gov. Rod Blagojevich’s veto of a moment-of-silence bill, effectively making law provisions for all public schools in the state to begin their days with a moment of silence.
The description of the target addresses one of the central mysteries surrounding the Sept. 6 attack, and suggests that Israel carried out the raid to demonstrate its determination to snuff out even a nascent nuclear project in a neighboring state. The Bush administration was divided at the time about the wisdom of Israel’s strike, American officials said, and some senior policy makers still regard the attack as premature.
Analysts Find Israel Struck a Nuclear Project Inside Syria
Israel’s air attack on Syria last month was directed against a site that Israeli and American intelligence analysts judged was a partly constructed nuclear reactor, apparently modeled on one North Korea has used to create its stockpile of nuclear weapons fuel, according to American and foreign officials with access to the intelligence reports.
