Australian Lubavitch businessman Rabbi Yosef Gutnick has donated towards a documentary film about the Lubavitcher Rebbe and Israeli security personnel.
The undisclosed amount was to assist JEM (Jewish Educational Media) in producing the second volume of the interview series ‘Faithful and Fortified.’
“It’s evident that he feels that it’s important for this testimony to be documented, to show the Rebbe’s view and interaction in Israeli security issues,” the film’s producer Yechiel Cagen told COLlive.com.
A press release mentioned Gutnick as the “Rebbe’s emissary for Shleimus Ha’aretz” – a title he takes pride in when calling on Israel not to give land for peace.
Some 60 interviews will be conducted in the next several months with Israeli security, intelligence, journalists and government officials who had interaction with the Rebbe about Israel.
While 45 of the interviewees have already been identified and contacted, about 15 interview slots remain, JEM said.
They asked the public for “any tips or advice on specific individuals who should be interviewed for the continuation of this vital project.”
