Rabbi Jacobson will discuss the following topics:What do the Nine Days teach us today?    What is the Rebbe’s unique approach to this saddest time of the year?  How does this period help us face challenges?  How does Rosh Chodesh Av empower us?  Can we expect that the sadness of this period will be transformed to joy?  Should we be afraid of our enemies threatening us?  What is the best way to fight our enemies?  What can we learn from this assassination in Tehran, in a private place?  Are we allowed to celebrate the deaths of our enemies?  Can we desecrate their graves?   What does the Torah say about offense being the best defense?   What should be our reaction to Israeli soldiers being arrested for abusing Hamas terrorists?  Why do we have an enemy that wants to destroy us in every generation?  Why isn't there greater emphasis on fighting radical Islam and its mandate to take over the world?  Did the Rebbe comment on the Islamic Revolution and Khomeini?  Should we start buying property now in Israel?  Why are we not doing more to unite Jews?  What should be our attitude to Jewish antisemites?  Why don’t you openly come out against the current democratic party?  How should we address the current crisis following the assassination of prominent terrorist leaders? Is it wise to assassinate the enemy’s leaders? War in Israel Jewish Unity Presidential Election Sholom Bayis: How do you distinguish between healthy compromise and becoming a “doormat”? What is the significance of Shabbos Chazon?
