So far, Chabad claims that its sponsored rescue teams have saved 37 Jews trapped in New Orleans, about the same number of people Sean Penn saved in one day. So, what else has Chabad been doing? This:
… On Wednesday, it was Chabad’s turn to be touched when James O’connell, an intrepid and dedicated volunteer from Metro New York Search and Rescue, working closely with Chabad’s rescue mission, braved danger to salvage five Torah Scrolls from the Chabad center in New Orleans. “James was heroic in his daring,” says Sharfstein. When an additional two Torahs from the Chabad synagogue in Metairie were saved yesterday, rescue workers held an impromptu, small celebration.…
In other words, while non-Jews still needed rescue, while there were human lives to be saved, Chabad recovered Torahs from its flooded synagogues. This seems to be a violation of halakha (Jewish Law), which would mandate the saving of human life before recovery of Torah scrolls. This is also another indication that Chabad's rescue efforts are sectarian, and that Chabad's advertising of their efforts as nonsectarian amounts to fraud.
Eliot Spitzer, are you listening?
