On multiple occasions in his televised addresses, the Rebbe, Rabbi Menachem M. Schneerson, of righteous memory urgently called for a daily “Moment of Silence” in U.S. public schools, where most American children receive their education. The Rebbe articulated his position with great urgency, all but warning that if the current path of education continues without incorporating a Moment of Silence, calamity is bound to come.
