appeasement?

What a shame. Fight to the end of the world to make sure to wear the rebbe garment under the chuppa. Twelve thousand books corresponds to 12 Shvatim. Your settling for five hundred on house arrest that’s like redeeming half of one Shavit in a visitation window instead of 12, absolutely ridiculous! Win for mother Russia not Chabad

This for them was a big concession, it’s a step in the right direction! For all the smart people living in the US and who have no idea jow things work In Russia I recommend you speak to some of the local shluchim there

To #4 let them make copies of the manuscripts and leave THAT in the museum. Don’t u realize the great kedusha
And holy kochos that the originals exude are what we r aiming for. Why do we treasure anything the rebbe zya gave us? We all had tanyas, yet when he gave out those green covered tanyas we woke up even the babies and rushed to 770 in the miiddle of the nite to get one from his holy hand?

To Reb Boruch: Food for thought but could backfire if Putin knows we have it that way…. would lose any leverage we may or may not have now,

Putin is in control, Lazar can do very little but put on a brave face.
A small concession has been made to Lubavitch; however I sense one which would never receive the Rebbe’s consent.
We are in Golus.

Perhaps any unique, original books and manuscripts can be microfilmed or copied, then sent to NY?

to meir!

Actually you are wrong!
what is heart breaking is that this Veronica was on Russian TV in the 90’s calling the rebbe a terribe thing and critisicing his wanting the seforim in NY

BS”D heartbreaking that the Rebbe never had the chance to view these Seforim

Utter deception

Just 500 out of 12000!!! Seforim were “returned” to the Kremlin owned space
And veronica! She referred to our rebbe disrespecfilly om Russian TV saying that the Seforim aught to remain in russia
