-Chabad: More than 50 individuals united at two separate events in Lakewood, NJ to commemorate Yud Shevat. COL reports "Remarkably, these events signify a significant transformation in the Lakewood area, signifying a positive shift towards embracing Chassidus and the messages of Chassidus Chabad. Yosef Shidler, organizer of these events, noted, “In years gone by, the town was known for its opposition to Chassidus Chabad, and today, we are witnessing dozens of people openly attending these events. It’s truly amazing to witness this positive change, where we can openly announce a Yud Shevat Farbrengen, and people eagerly participate.”

This township committee have no shame to spend hard earned tax dollars like drunken sailors.
ReplyDeleteWhy on earth does the town need 120 new vehicles
Why can't they drive older cars like everyone else.
They have to be held accountable
Why are the committeemen paying ONE MILLION DOLLARS over the 725K tax assessment value for 220 3rd Street? The answer is simple: Because the MARKET value is much higher.
ReplyDeleteSo that begs the next question: Why do our faithful committeemen allow certain land management consultants and land swappers to swap township owned property for the measly amount based on the Tax assessment value instead of the actual Market value?? Don't the taxpayers end up losing a lot of money this way??
Hmmm.. Maybe they just never thought about it..?
Mechutzaf @ 9:22,
DeleteOf course we thought about it. But there are internal reasons which the regular taxpayer would never understand. Just trust us and know that everything we do is for the greater good and is backed by our daas torah. All you need to be concerned about is to make sure you keep voting for us.
How can you dare allow for this discussion to be taking place
DeleteRe Chabad in Lakewood - typical Lubavitch propaganda.
ReplyDeleteThe truth: very few people percentage wise from the tzibur were there. Those that were were Lubavitchers, other Chasidim, curious people, modern people. Look at the photos. You would be hard pressed to find BMG represented there.
Don't believe Shidler's propaganda spin, he is a notorious Chabad propagandist. Look at the photos and see how dismal the turnout was.
Enough of the Chabad deception already.
I don't hate Chabad per se, but that story is propaganda.
DeleteLakewood didn't change its position on Chabad. More people moved in, people with little connection to the old Lakewood. That may be a good thing or not. Either way, it is true. A tiny number of those people went to eat good food, drink a strong drink, and allow Chabad to take their picture as they celebrated someone's death and someone else's receiving a job.
Us Bnai Torah of BMG HATE anything to do with CHABAD!!!
ReplyDeleteWhy are people surprised that HaBAD puts out such a false report? They are a group of a Moshiach Sheker, so they employ sheker to promote themselves.
