I couldn't talk
before.
Last night
I uh was sent a a clip by someone who
came to Burough Park and he made a video
of the new Ber Shul on 14th Avenue and
48th Street, the new beautiful building.
And he said it was $60 million.
And he went on to say,
"But uh Kabad 770 Lebabich can't get
their act together
and we can't put up a building for $60
million or whatever it would take."
So I had a few thoughts about this.
Number one, we don't have to compare BV
to Labavich. Labavich to BV. Both are
legitimate. Both are gavaldic. both are
fine
and I congratulate
and really it's a keshm to see how this
is developing and growing
and although in the beginning it was
the beginning was tight and narrow and
difficulties
without going into details
they come out flourishing Barashem
and they have this new beautiful
building, a $60 million building
according to this person who said it was
$60 million. I don't know that, but
that's what he says. I'll take his word
for it.
But the other part bothered me a little
bit.
It's true. We have a 770 in Kron Heights
at this month of Tish sees thousands and
thousands of guests probably 20 30,000
guests throughout Tish
and you can't fit them in into 770.
It's it's worse than a fire fire hazard.
You just can't get in
and it's a problem.
But my dear friends, the issue and
problem
is with leadership
on all sides of the fence.
Debb
in 1988 I believe there was a ceremony
with a cornerstone. David Chase was
there
were there and others
and then himself with his holy body put
the stone down in the earth. this was
going to be the expansion of 770.
I don't know what happened between 1988
and 1992, but it didn't happen.
It's now 35
to 40 years later and we still don't
have the expansion that we need.
And the reason is
at least one of the reasons or the main
reason is that people
cannot see eye to eye on how to make it
happen.
I don't know all the details. I don't
want to know all the details and those
that I do know it's not worth talking
about. It's not important. But the
bottom line is that
what we need here and it's rash upcoming
we need to be on the same page say
you see inv this is one group with oneb
I'm sure there were disagreements how to
do this how to do that but everyone
listens to the reb our is our rebba
today too unfortunately people decide
ide what the rebba wants and they have
come to a decision that they can't work
together. So who suffers? The people
suffer. So what we need and what I'm
calling for is a a youth movement, young
people, and I don't mean radicals who
break walls in 770. We spoke about that.
It's outrageous and wrong. We're talking
about legitimate people
to basically
shle the leaders and say you got to get
together we have to make it happen and
when you have people who are young
energetic
it helps also if they have a few dollars
that doesn't hurt at all and if they
will get together from all sides and say
for the larger cause for the greater
cause we need to do this, it'll get
done. We were very close, by the way,
years ago. There was a certain gentleman
in Crown Heights. God blessed him with
great funds and he wanted to give
tremendous amount of money, but he and
one of the leaders couldn't get together
in a in a certain deal that he wanted a
certain whatever that that's what they
say.
And that's fine.
It's fine because both of them are in
their 90s and God should bless them both
with good health and good years. But you
know when it's over, it's over. So
again, who's left with the problem? We.
And when I say we, I mean especially the
younger people without these white
beards. So you got to make it happen.
And the way to make it happen is to
do
what you need to do. You know, we don't
like this Mandani who's running for
mayor, but he's 31 years old. Look what
he's done. He's he's turned upside down
Ko and Adams. Ko is, you know, Italian
is Democratic. His years years of of of
of of leadership.
One little guy turns him upside down.
Why could Why? Cuz he got the young
people. We need the young people.
The young people of course should
consult with rabbis and mashiam and
teachers but at the end of the day bring
them together and tell them you guys
cannot continue with w with this. It's
easier said than done of course but all
revolutions
all changes take place from the youth.
So go for it. Our reba realized that and
he saw that if he was going to deal only
with the old guys the old-timers it
ain't gonna happen. and he won't be able
to do what what the world needed at the
time, the Jewish world, open outreach,
learning yeshivas and everything else.
So he he he he garners the young, the
770 boys and even younger and they
become his soldiers.
May Hashem help that this youth re
revolution in a positive way should be
done with
love for each other. Yeah, that means
putting aside your own opinion and
listening to someone else and for the
greater cause. Let's hope that by next
tish we'll have an expanded 770 and
we'll and we won't have these issues and
and this way people won't say ah look at
look at them and look at
only good things. Thank you.
