Zionism #24- Outreach to Hippies, 60s, Drugs: Mivtzoim & Tanks in Streets: Satmars go Nuts

so the day today in Chabad we celebrate the Yemen is sui in the anniversary of the rabbi's wedding in 1928. in Warsaw Poland and Russia with the fried's daughter so it's known as you doubted kislov which is the Hebrew day today the 14th of kisler so it's appropriate that we're going to learn now what I like best in this letter is um the upcoming Parts the upcoming sections because it deals with things that I live through as a Yeshiva in the 1970s and uh was very positive so let's go right to the text Page 114. the title given here is the Mitzvah campaigns please notice that it's not if it's not the word Mitzvah it's a mistake it sounds very similar but it's actually from the words and it means like a sale right there's a mixture on this you see the words in the Israeli stores Mr a sale did everybody explain he he brought sources that the concept is a campaign I mean if some means a campaign the campaigns and the tanks this refers to the 10 point Mitzvah campaign a campaigned that deliver excuse me initiated back in the early 70s I think starting in 73 or 74. going to 76 77 but within three to five years I believe they never suggested 10 Mitzvahs that we should encourage all Eden to do obviously etc etc so that's known in Chabad and by today I assume that many others know it as the mythsoyan foreign refers to the vehicles used in those days in the early days when this started we rented Hertz trucks you know rental trucks small trucks and put some benches of chairs in the back and the buffering went into the back and there was a driver another buffer and they went out to the streets of Brooklyn and New York and they offered people to do mitzvahs and they never used the the word tanks why and he said because thanks protect the country tanks also fight against the enemy and in this case the enemy is assimilation and I don't have to tell you is Sir you were around then and the assimilation there was always a simulation the assimilation was growing and growing and the confusion the chaos post Vietnam Vietnam War and the counter-culture Revolution and the hippie movement it's built into the 70s and the LSD movement and the S movement the self-improvement movement and he had all of these new isms that Americans that people worldwide and about in America's an American Yeadon and especially kids on college campuses and the youth were testing and dealing with and and experiment experiment experimenting Etc that ever said that this is leading to everyone and they didn't have to say this we know what was going on and parents were turning over and there's in there you know in their guts and Grandparents were turning over in their graves it was as non-religious as they were they still wanted their kids to marry Jews and you've said it doesn't add up if cautious is not important to you know shop is not important to you why is marrying a Jew important to you and of course they didn't have a good answer because there is no good answer there's no good answer and if it doesn't mitzvah but nevertheless the the emotional feeling is this is acceptable this is not yes sir I just want to share with you the answer you want to answer that what I don't hear I don't hear no you don't have your earphones okay we'll have to leave it for next time anyway so the rebel said just like a tank protects and goes on the offensive we have to protect our our sons and daughters of Israel and we have to fight against assimilation and he used the idea of a tank for that imagery and they became known as the tankin and those that went on the tanks like myself we were called the tankistin the tankus we go on the tanks so this this heading here is about them if soyim and the tanks and this was sold on the wound this this I can tell you exacerbated the entire soccer Le babish Feud a hundredfold because this was a message that there ever shared with the world and he didn't do it to poke the eyes out of the sacrament but from their perspective and again from their culture and based on everything we've learned now in our 23 Shield Hashem this was like you know it's bad enough that you consider non-observant Jews Jews you're going out to the streets and you're publicizing it and at times and many times you're driving through Williamsburg because that was the one of the roots there were different routes depending on traffic you either go down Flatbush Avenue or you go down Bedford you know depending where you're going to and yet you put them you know teenagers and young adults a young man you know they're wild and crazy everyone in their own way so they put the liberature music on they had a loudspeakers and blasted the music going through the streets of Williamsburg which outraged some people you know go another way why are you coming through our neighborhood doesn't belong to your neighborhood but that was the issue that was going on and so it was at this time in the 1970s when the world was was still reeling from the Vietnam War and and and and the shooting of Kennedy and and and and and the space um ship that went up the Sputnik or whatever all those things and then the hippie movement The Counter Culture everything in the 60s was you know everyone you guys know better than I what the 60s 60s was I only could talk about it I heard about it but um You probably experienced it some of you so so uh yeah because I have a different perspective now that I'm in my 60s anyway the point is it all came to a head and then Obama suggests getting into tanks into these renter trucks going out to the streets go and and and again the Grandpa didn't tell them to go through Williamsburg you know that that was everyone that was their own doing but the point is to make this splash you know 2030 rented Vehicles hurts uh yellow yellow hurt they were yellow in those days and to put big um signs uh uh poster signs on on the hurts covering the Hertz rental words with Lubavitch and Mithun the 10 campaigns the title of feeling all that because that was a message when you went into Manhattan and I went on those trucks many times to Manhattan you know it he just looked at it you say wow there's something you know it made your eyes stop and and think and and if someone was there to talk to so this is what he's going to tackle now that this really outraged the satbers to the point where it led ultimately to the to fighting in the late 70s that Jonathan so kindly reminded us of um because he was there Etc so let's see what he says page foreign whoever anyone that has brains in his head it's an expression anyone that has a little intelligence and everyone does and they stop and they observe how young Laboratories bring Merit to thousands and thousands of Jews by bringing them actual mixes trillion mezuzah shabba's candles Etc and everything else that they would tell him are about but I'm not feeling unfilling putting on Amazon which was part of them if the campaigns and all doors by capturing your vessels your utensils the mitbach and the kitchen the centered by his caution and organizing a kosher house that were included and if they look and if they observed more carefully they saw how a large part of those thousands of people who who were impacted by these campaigns they became Shay Mateo misses they became from Jews observing Jews but tackles with all details of observance MC Maven if you if you observe this you understand you the Pastors in a simple way is the Great importance of the ten campaigns and the tanks used for us to tongue kiss them to go on he says it's a no-brainer let's put it in the very vernacular it's a no-brainer everyone everyone that takes a look and sees how they reached out to Unison in South Africa and it and and look and look look look look we have here we have a person who's who's writing a book now on on meditation and on on you know me right so so so like come on just be open enough to observe okay next paragraph ah however hey yes yes however since there are such people that do to do because of their their their their their psyche and their and their way of thinking and behaving and all that means the way the DNA kind of of their soul the way they you know they operate hembale that's in in quotes they are means just the opposite and Yiddish the words are punked just the opposite you say red I say white you say up I say down we call them is okay what yes very good contrarians so we have it in Hebrew in Yiddish and in English very good um and they search they look in each issue that they that they that they look at maybe they will quote succeed let me find a deficiency a negativity in what's wrong with putting with telling people to putting on filling with Jews or encouraging the culture their home let's find some chrisarone he may your guide to massage being sarcastic here of course he says the camera says if you will try you will succeed believe the person right the persons I I succeeded after I tried believe him says if you want to try to find fault with anything you will succeed and after much effort muscle and again in quotations they found they discovered America Columbus discovered America what did they come up with this sir this idea of reaching out to Jews was never done before it's a new thing it's innovation and they began dripping they began um murmuring to the masses they began telling people this way of Outreach I'm reaching down and doing all this is coming from the negative side God forbid [Applause] always going back to the famous word of the Sam Cipher Innovation is awesome you know it's referring to the Torah the brisk you keep Kurdish and all that right so therefore since our grandfathers in Europe and in Europe and wherever else in Yemen didn't go out to the streets to put on filling with Jews and to talk to Jews and to go around in trucks and in the streets and park in the on 47th Street in Manhattan The Fifth Avenue where thousands of people are walking every day during the day and you say how come hello are you a Jew would you like a Mitzvah how they're going to help you and have a discussion it's all user why it's hadash it's Innovation and we have a rule any Innovation that's what he says move it next paragraph It's understood people who come up with this argument is and if yo says the argument that it is an uh Innovation the truth is it does it that's not really what bothers them and that and they don't get excuse the expression they don't give a damn they they in other words they're that they right away have have already uh framed you you're you're a citrakhra now the fact that it is old it's new that's already ancillary that's using a justification to justify their their their hatred and their mushigas but her call in the in the parenthesis everything they say is with the it's still like the form the dress the disguise of yirushimaim I'm the beginning of shamayan and what do you mean going out to the streets I'm gonna see girls I'm gonna see not sneeze it's outrageous how do you let how do you let it how do you tell people married or even single for sure and married they have a wife what are they looking another woman to stop a woman and ask her would you like to like Shoppers candles here are a pair of shabba's candles outrageous so they so they they argue that what's being done is against Taylor against yirushimaim the whole that's continuing said the call in your name who Rock losses that true purpose is one thing to make divisiveness to make makroikas means troublemakers Leah since for whatever reason the act of the Satan of the Sutton succeeded the eight cell had obey you didn't mean and by many many hidden who are teaming sincere this gobletinosum Zoo this kind of this argument has been accepted Rosary of yours writing to someone he says and even you holy Rabbi holy Torah person honorable Torah person foreign you're included in these good Jews Eurasia Mayim and you've been caught in their web as well to believe this nonsense if I'm going to explain to you is how this argument of theirs it comes from ignorance two words to express the same thing ignorance they don't know the facts on the ground and again they just will know one thing this is bad this is evil they're evil they're citrakhra did you take did you take a look at what they're doing did you take a look how to know what they are and many other things no you just say it's wrong then you find reasons next paragraph now starts explaining foreign you hit him until he dies so I said man is this means yes when there is a Jewish doesn't want to fulfill the mitsuasuka by him it's the law of the mixer or movement is understood the Martian the Knights of kindness the reason he doesn't want to fulfill these mythism because he's an intentional Russia in spite he wants to that specifically not do that he wants to intentionally rebel against Hashem to the point Chicago to the point when you when you you hit him he still stands with his Rebellion is because if the first patch the first hits would impact him you wouldn't have to hit him until he dies here we're talking about Russia a Russia that does it intentionally with the kavana to go against Hashem Rebel Chicago and therefore even when you hit him and break his bones and say do chuva he says too bad no way and he still sticks to his Ardent stubborn Rebellion guess what guess what even such a Russia we are obligated to attempt to be mishtable that he should do a simple mitzvah it doesn't say anywhere that you shouldn't do that you have to do that at the same time he gets petched for being stubborn and rebelling oh brush it to self understood it's simple you don't have to fulfill the Fulfillment of getting a ye to do hashem's will through hitting him you don't have to that's not the only way well they may actually live for love if you could impact him in another way in parenthesis they double battle by speaking them your applicant to speak to him a message and fill the mitzvahim and if the speaking doesn't help then you're obligated to to give him pets foreign what does he say keeping to them since it's similar to the makasuka and he and you don't do it make a Suka the clay finish the climates we force him to do it the Mitzvah the whole of them every person is obligated to separate a person another person from not from a Prohibition right to get take them away from that I feel emissions McLeod bezden even someone that's about the cloud I'm sorry even busted but I've conversations in other words if you look into the halacha it seems like and Allah brings them to see this with the receiver says no it doesn't refer only to bed later if that was the case you could say the only business to give him the patch Etc without hitting him by speaking to him is about the headache no in normal you're not going to hit a true foot so this is the best and can force him comes along to deceivers and says not only can best enforce him every person has an obligation to force but when it comes to talking to a person you don't need to deceive us talking is not hitting of course every person could talk to everybody should talk to every person to do mixers so that's what you'll see well okay next narrative Mercedes those that laugh s that they attempt that yeadon's non-religious on the doors but how tired they laugh at the Bible saying coffee with a shame since these Jews I'm non-religious let me show you my Mitzvahs shallaham Aina maluma nothing's important to them when it comes to Memphis and therefore they say why are you putting on food with them they're going to eat the the uh the the hamburger over there at Burger King the two minutes after you put on he's on his way to run it's lunch hour he's walking on 475th Avenue you stop him come put on film he goes and puts on film and then he goes into the store and buys a a cheeseburger foreign so like they would say well yeah like what's the point their laughter who lay Mercedes they're not laughing at Le Baba said is there laughing at a clear Allah in the circus that has been established as a halacha in actuality in the in the commentator in the sivus foreign if like according to the soccer the Mitzvah of a sinner is worthless why does the good mother say and then see the same explain that you have to force him force them for what he's in Russia so he's going to do this with some now and tomorrow and an hour later he's a Russia so so rabil's saying you're not laughing at us at the barbages you're laughing at that look cool speed of spade what time is it yeah okay so okay we'll take off take off your thing um uh yes sir you want to share with us what you said wanted to say in the beginning of this year if I can remember it it was about about assimilation about marriage you know I said that uh you know the um our grandparents parents said you know we don't keep pop we don't keep from my mother right and I said why she says because it's important I said what's important about it he said it's a feeling I am that that's the best she could come up with yeah yeah listen you know they meant well they meant well but you know yeah they meant well but uh listen yeah go ahead yes I give to my ex-wife very nice and I met her and I had five children with her and if that guy will not have given their their candle to mice to my ex-wife rather who knows I wouldn't a death right right wonderful wonderful Story You're sharing with the a living example of faith I couldn't hear it can you say it again this has said that his ex-wife's brother was walking somewhere and Alibaba just stopped and said here's a candle a Shoppers left give it to your mother your sister whatever Delight lift and he said that from from that candle it she started to become the Scottish and she had five children with Dinosaurs he says that you know my whole family came because of that candle that this this bucker gave gave her brother and he gave it to her and gave her the message and that's exactly the point yes yes what when you speak yeah yeah yeah if we can see your face it helps us understand a lot better right and also we we want to see that radiant face oh what I'm saying is because if if this guy wouldn't have stood out of there if a thousand people walking by and uh if you would have missed him God forbid beautiful and and that's exactly the the benefit but there's the eczema cover in other words the answer my daughter is that a mix was a mitzvah and and and and to go say that first of all who are you to label someone else in Russia says it about someone first of all you're not the good mother but it but but let's look at the commodity that's what Abigail's doing again he's going into the way their way of thinking you guys are they're probably not even aware of the good morning and all that but let's say you are aware of it you're basing on this kimono so he says it doesn't equal it doesn't make sense you could because the gamada says you have to hit them till they do it that means but why what if they're gonna do one Mitzvah you hit them okay you got them to do it and then the next day they're gonna do avadas or an hour later what's the point according to you they're going to show you so it just shows that you you're wrong you don't need to come out right the command is saying that the excellent their Jews and they're good Jews they have an issue they're not doing this and they don't want they're rebelling even but they're still eating so the perspective is just the opposite that's what he's saying here and we'll continue to share Monday have a great day everyone a great Shabbos and all the best not slow bye bye
