i heard these same excact arguments or discussions, yesterday the day before, and for the past 10 years. lets switch it up a little!

What is wrong with ziya
August 27, 2009 2:12 pm

There are certain acronyms that have always been added to the names of all the chabad rabbeim after their histalkus. These were added as a way of showing deep respect. We should add ziya etc. after the Rebbe’s name to show at least the same level of respect. Belief that the Rebbe will lead us out of golus as the moshiach should not change that. The only reason not to add ziya etc. after the Rebbe’s name is if gimmel Tamuz never happened.

hhhmmm ..and here I was thinking that it was bad mortgages that caused the recession and the election of Obama that caused a change in US policies in Israel. If only I had your clairvoyant capabilities then I would tell everyone here exactly why the holocaust happened just like the people like you blamed the gaza pullout for katrina (of the tsunami…whatever the natural disaster it was…) I don’t get you. You need to get out of your bubble….k I’m not gonna waste any more time on you…. Removing the stone and recent issues on elections and rabbonim started the… Read more »

This is the true story in short: On 17 elul 5748 after mincha, david chase approached the Rebbe (who at the time was davenning in the pres. st. house) and asked that the Rebbe come to a ground breaking for a new building. The Rebbe agreed, and around 5 PM the Rebbe came to 770. The video is out there for everyone to see. In the end, nothing was built, other than some bathrooms in the basement. At one point, the Rebbe said something to the effect of “Men shlept an alta yid tzu machen a even hapina un gornit… Read more »

To #26 IS the stone real? : How dare you mock this stone? How dare you mock our Holy Kehilla? You think elections and Rabbonim are a joke? You think the whole issue of Shilta is silly? YOU are a mockery! YOU are the joke! As YOU conclude, YOU are not real! These are unresolved issues that effect our Kehilla, and whatever effects our Kehilla also effects Klal Yisroel b’ gashmiyus u’b’ruchniyus. Removing the stone and recent issues on elections and rabbonim started the recession, caused havoc in U.S. support for Israel, brought the allegations against Iowa and NJ. We… Read more »

we all lost
August 23, 2009 2:45 am

after gimmul tammuz the CH comuty lost all there right whether it be in Vaad hakol or in kapors or where or how they davven so just add this on to the list of what a few poeple can do to destroy the rebbi legcy
they will do it just like they did it to all the great leaders of all time

just stay strong and soon the few evil doors will fail

If Merkos won what are Lipsker & company still doing in 770?
August 23, 2009 12:53 am

Only Merkos & Aguch have the rights to put up the stone not the gabboim!!!!

thanks.

21 years
August 22, 2009 4:20 pm

It’s 21 years since the “establishment” asked the rebbe to participate in this groundbreaking ceremony. Did any of you ever see the video of the groundbreaking? Does anyone really think that the “establishment” will ever put up this building?? But have no fear, the Rebbe will ultimately prevail. So dear members of the
so-called “establishment”, better wake up before it’s too late.

READ THIS! NEW OUTLOOK
August 22, 2009 2:50 pm

If you think that the “establishment” gave in, THINK AGAIN.

Don’t you notice how “THE CORNER STONE” is NOT centered. It leaves plenty of space to write zia when the time (chas ve Shalom) comes.

The terrorists, are disturbed people, so lets not be to mean, but the “establishment” is acting like little kids!

This whole thing makes me SO SO SO EMBARRASSED.

Why don’t big holy rabbis, grow up?!

no yechi
August 21, 2009 10:33 am

if you look in the second picture, you can see the space above the “even hapina” doesn’t say yechi. can everyone please get along? it hurts to see lubavitchers fighting like this… moshiach now!!

Maybe Just Maybe
August 21, 2009 10:19 am

The stone really isn’t that important, maybe we should each focus on our own avodah and our own ahavas yisroel, and fulfilling the rebbe’s directions to become closer to Hashem, maybe the stone should not have any place in our lives at all.

If only we made as much fuss about taking care of each other and respecting each other as we make a fuss over a Even Doimem.

Is this THE real stone?
August 21, 2009 10:07 am

Is there any way to prove that this is THE real stone and not an imposter? Maybe this stone is only made to look like the real stone, just to confuse and mislead everyone? Maybe the real stone is hidden and will one day be revealed? Maybe only certain people (from Tzfas) are able to see the real stone? Maybe we should have a vote to decide if this is the real stone or not? Maybe if this stone is elected to be the real stone, it will be sued in court as an imposter? Maybe Rabbonim should pasken that… Read more »

August 21, 2009 7:58 am

It should say kvod Kdushas admur not Shlita not Ziya and that’s what all publications should have said since Gimel tamuz this way you’re not destroying the Meshichstims belief or being disrespectfull to the antis

non sense
August 21, 2009 5:43 am

pepole are sick and dieing, and not very plasent things are happening in lubavitch around the world, some pepole are realy suffering, so way way put emphasis on somthing that does not bring shaolom around us,its defenetly not what the rebbe intended.

August 21, 2009 5:43 am

I’ll gladely discuss this with you. Please provide an e-mail address so we can communicate.

Don't get so excited.
August 21, 2009 5:35 am

Didn’t anyone notice the two pieces of tape? Just wait ’till they take that off to reveal Yechi below.

please clarify
August 21, 2009 5:31 am

to number 5 and 12 can you please explain? I’ve never heard of this… there was a building that never happened? What was this stone supposed to be the cornerstone of?
This is not sarcastic I really mean it, I’ve never heard of this and would like to understand.

August 21, 2009 3:10 am

It won’t help and it doesn’t make a difference who puts up what plaque… The stone itself is not comfortable in that spot and will do anything in order not to become built in. That stone was supposed to be the foundation of a structure that was never carried through. The Rebbe himself spoke about that fact with great anguish. Watch and see how the stone pushes off any plaque… just a matter of time….
