New York Post: Orthodox Jewish Students Used Mexican Laborers To Build Shawshank-Style Tunnels Underneath Chabad HQ

So, the latest official explanation for the Jewish tunnel underneath Chabad HQ in New York City is that a couple of Israeli teenagers hired some Mexicans to build the tunnel to expand the complex to fulfill a kabbalah prophecy related to the Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson who is that corpse that Javier Milei was praying to a few weeks ago out of the belief he was the Moschiach.

New York Post:

“Extremist students from an ultra-Orthodox Hasidic group secretly hired migrant laborers to help them build a controversial tunnel at the sect’s world headquarters in Crown Heights — all to fulfill what they felt was a religious obligation to expand the holy site, The Post has learned.

Six renegade members of the Chabad-Lubavitch Hasidic movement secretly began digging the 3-foot-high, 20-foot-wide, 50-foot-long tunnel themselves, using crude instruments and their hands. They stuffed the dirt into their pockets so that their work wouldn’t be detected by the sect’s leaders and wider community, a source in the Orthodox community told The Post.

“You’ve seen the movie ‘The Shawshank Redemption’? That’s what these young men did at first: They dug and put the dirt in their pockets,” said Eitan Kalmowitz, a member of the Lubavitcher community in Crown Heights. …”

Who knows?

It might be true.

Maybe it was Mexican workers living in filth. That’s the most charitable explanation.

Regardless, everyone had a lot of fun with it making memes and the incident was used to raise awareness. I read somewhere that it was the Chabad leaders who called the police in the first place. It still doesn’t change the fact that this cult has connections to powerful figures like Trump and Milei.
