Liz Crokin's take:
SECRET TUNNELS REPORTEDLY FOUND UNDER CHABAD-LUBAVITCH HEADQUARTERS IN NEW YORK!
I’m tracking the story of the secret tunnels found under the Chabad-Lubavitch Headquarters in Crown Heights.
A Union Street homeowner told http://CrownHeights.info several weeks ago that they had been hearing suspicious noises at night in their home for a period of time. As the noise continued, the concerned homeowner notified someone of the sounds and their suspicion.
http://CrownHights.info reported that around this same time construction workers found what appeared to be a tunnel underground.
Last night vandalism and chaos occurred allegedly because cement trucks were brought in to fill in the tunnels. The bochurim allegedly began disconnecting, hosing and vandalizing the cement trucks.
The NYPD was called in and the vandalism continued inside. The bochurim flipped tables and ripped off the walls of downstairs 770 exposing the hidden tunnel. There were reportedly also attempts to pepper spray police officers.
One of the more disturbing videos from the incident shows a stained mattress was pulled from the underground tunnel. Also, there’s a photo of what appears to be a baby highchair allegedly found in the tunnel. There were reportedly at least 10 people arrested.
Curiously, there’s photos of #mainstream #media at the scene at around 7 p.m. EST; however, the #MSM has been suspiciously #silent. This raises #red #flags — are they all waiting for their 4 a.m. talking points before they cover this?
The X page for The Chabad-Lubavitch Headquarters released a statement over an hour ago; however, they made no mention of the tunnels. The statement read:
“The Chabad-Lubavitch community is pained by the vandalism of a group of young agitators who damaged the synagogue below Chabad Headquarters at 770 Eastern Parkway Monday night. These odious actions will be investigated, and the sanctity of the synagogue will be restored. Our thanks to the NYPD for their professionalism and sensitivity.”
There’s no clear indication on what these tunnels were used for. I’ve reported extensively on how there’s underground tunnels all over the county that are used to traffic #children. Sadly, this is not uncommon. Let’s hope this is not what these tunnels were used for regarding this incident.
We’ll see how this plays out.
Music for night skies.

10pm and on. Strong wind on the roofs again. Sounds of churchbells, some neighbours rushing to get the late mass. Listening to the music that went through all the night so far. Pondering continuity, tradition, rituals, the strength of things dear to us and the often discomforting weight of changes ... even good ones.
#1930 - das war die Zeit, als man gemütlich über die Kreuzung Hardenberg-/ Joachimsthaler Straße flanieren konnte, als man noch wusste, wie ein Besen funktioniert, und als zum Eiskaffee ein Glas Wasser serviert wurde. Ach ja, und es war das Jahr, in dem Billy Wilder, Robert und Curt Siodmak und Edgar Ulmer Menschen am Sonntag drehten und darin solche Kleinigkeiten zeigten.
PAT & PATACHON: CIRCUS (Laurel & Hardy) UHD
Pat & Patachon (original Fy og Bi) war ein dänisches Komikerduo der Stummfilmzeit. Es wurde verkörpert von Carl Schenstrøm (1881–1942) als Pat (original Fyrtaarnet: Leuchtturm) und Harald Madsen (1890–1949) als Patachon (Bivognen: Anhänger oder Beiwagen). Zwischen 1921 und 1940 drehten beide etwa 55 Filme. [+]

Make Noise about the #Silent #Crisis of Global #Illiteracy
Source: https://dissidentvoice.org/2022/02/make-noise-about-the-silent-crisis-of-global-illiteracy/
It is further estimated that the crisis could force 3.1 million children and youth to drop out of school and force over 300,000 to go to work.
The United Nations notes that ‘more than 1.5 billion students and youth across the planet are or have been affected by school and university closures due to the COVID-19 #pandemic’; at least 1 billion #school children are at risk of falling behind in their studies.
Close to one third of all #children – at least 463 million – do not have any access to technologies for remote education; three out of four of these children come from rural areas, most of them from the very poorest households.
Because of the school closures during the lockdowns and the lack of infrastructure for online learning, many children ‘face the risk of never returning to school, undoing years of progress made in #education around the world’.
The United Nations now reports that in 2020 an additional 101 million or 9% of children in classes 1 to 8 ‘fell below minimum reading proficiency levels’ and that the pandemic has ‘wiped out the education gains achieved over the past 20 years’.
The #UN and World Bank have sounded the alarm that this ‘silent crisis’ will have a devastating impact on the economic future of students. They estimate that ‘this generation of children now risks losing $17 trillion in lifetime earnings in present value, or about 14% of today’s global GDP, because of COVID-19 related school closures and economic shocks’.
That only 29% of the people in sub-Saharan Africa have internet access makes the inequities of cultural life an even more pressing concern.
