I ‘m from Iran and I remember that when 13 jews were in jail in shiraz , one of the prisoner’s daghter was getting maried so the goverment let the jewish man who was in jail to come to his daughter’s wedding with 2 polices and we are talking about Iran. then, in America that the justice system runs by mostly jews and everything looks fare, this jew couldnt come to his child wedding what a shame WHAT A SHAME. IM REALLY SORRY TO SEE THAT.

I couldn’t be at the chuppah but send the brachos of an ordinary Crown Heightser that the young couple build a Bayis Ne’eman B’Yisroel, Binyan Adei Ad and bring much nachas to the Rebbe, the entire family and to all of us. May the family know only simchas and be reunited with Sholom Mordechai right away with the Geula Shleima!

My eyes stream rivers of tears when reading your heartrending email. In a world that is so upside down, so outrageous and so injust, what more can be added to your words? Only this: Dear G-d, You have eyes that truly see and ears that truly hear, please see the blatancy of the injustice and hear the words of a father’s longing and take him out of jail already. How much more does he have to suffer? How much more does his family have to suffer this terrible loss of this vital person in their life. Have rachmonus! And to… Read more »

Sholom Mordechai is right – Hashem is the Boss – we should be reminded. But our hearts go out to you and your family. Tears in the eyes and may your golus finish now and the golus of all Jews and the entire world – with Moshiach.

Let’s show support and go at least to the chuppa and warm up S.M and his family’s hearts with our support!
