Press Conference On Mumbai Tragedy
The Chabad is an
outreach program which promotes education and peaceful solutions to
life challenges and emphasizes the individual's relationship to God and
devotion toward others. With this in mind it is hard to see how anyone
would wish to do them harm.
This is an exerpt from an
Article on the death of the Rabbi and his wife:
"Here's a young couple with
a small child who left their families to live in a strange land, just
for the sake of helping build the Jewish community there.
You know how many kids they saved from drugs and from prison? This is
their reward? This is the protection G-d gives them?
... "
The Terrorists vs the
Chabad Reach out Program -
"They are darkness. We are light. They storm the shores with death in
their eyes. We come to teach compassion and acts of beauty.
... "
"Are we to surrender
before them? Are we to stop and cry and ask, "maybe we're fighting the
wrong battle"?"
"We
will fill the world with light and wisdom and the spirit of
darkness in men's hearts shall forever perish.
They come with their guns and their might, with a god of destruction
and terror, but we come in the name of the Eternal, the source of all
life and healing. ...
May the Almighty G-d hear the cry of their blood from the earth and put
an end to all sorrow. May it be very soon, sooner than we can imagine."
