Wasn't Rabbi Bleich the Chief Rabbi?
I dont know who the chief Rabbi is, but this is certainly a BIG Rabbi.
the Chief Rabbi is on the right.
The 'self appointed' chief rabbi.
Only Chabad are 'allowed to appoint rabbis in the former Soviet Union, even if someone else was already there
Malach
I assume you mean Rabbi Bleich? was he appointed for life?
The Rabbonim from Kehillos in Ukraine voted for Rabbi Chaikin.
For a real mess, check out the matzav in the Mahara"l and Noda B'Yehuda's home town.
snags
why the glee in your post?
are you excited to see disarray?
Hirshey,
It's not glee - its cynicism.
Actually I come from a Lubavitcher family, but I have given up on that scene and joined the ranks of the great undefined. It's the cynicism has led me to the moniker "Go Snags."
