דער קערפער פֿון השם"Typically, the visibly #Jewish #shlichim set up stands in public places to urge Jewish men to wrap #Tefillin or Jewish women light #Shabbat candles. They are sitting ducks in hostile countries.
Hideous #conspiracy theorists have targeted the organisation further by promoting falsehoods about what is, in reality, a benign and inward-facing movement.
Is it any wonder then that in 2008 six people, including the #Rabbi’s pregnant wife, were killed in a #terrorattack on a #Chabadhouse in #Mumbai? Or that in 2019 a woman was killed in a shooting at the #ChabadofPoway #synagogue? Or that in 2024 Chabad Rabbi Zvi Kogan was kidnapped and murdered by #terrorists in the #UAE? And of course the fact that Rabbi Eli Schlanger, 41, and Rabbi Yaakov Levitan, 39, were amongst the 15 murdered at the #Bondibeach massacre.
But #Chabad’s work is holy. They selflessly provide an entirely unique service which I don’t believe exists in any other community or culture."
