To # 4:
What do you mean?
A Shliach is the real Chief Rabbi, most of other Rabbis are stam employees who need to make a living…
Shlichus IS Rabbonus!!!
And Boruch Hashem when the emes and the reality in heaven is becoming poel mamosh begashmius.

And to # 2:
You must be happy to play the role of Amolek.
I can bet you do nothing in your life, so you must be mekanter on those who do something.
Shame on you.

#3 you said it right. Why can’t the shluchim just do their missionary work and leave Rabbonus for those who know how to do it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

I don't get it

Why are so many new shluchim obsessed with appointing themselves Chief Rabbi of their area?

1) What does it mean to be a chief rabbi of 150 Jews?

2) What does it mean when 34 of those 150 – 25% of the community don’t recognise your position?

3) How does a secular government appoint a Chief Rabbi?

Answer to all the above: It’s another RCE stitch up. They must have orchestrated the whole thing.

If Rabbi Kaplan will act as a true representative of Chabad, a time will come when these 34 willl say that it was their idea to bring him to Albania.

Hatzlacha raba umiflaga.
