David Saltzman and a member of Chabad-Lebovich Synagogue in Brooklyn, New York, where underground tunnels were discovered earlier this year, admitted on a podcast that rituals were being performed underground.

2
00:00:14,060 --> 00:00:17,920
Rituals, what they believe, to resurrect the Messiah.

3
00:00:18,260 --> 00:00:19,280
Listen in to some of this.

4
00:00:19,400 --> 00:00:23,560
Very, very disturbing and very troubling as well.

5
00:00:23,560 --> 00:00:27,620
There was one more viral image going around, and this is the one everyone's been talking about.

6
00:00:28,200 --> 00:00:36,160
Is this, Dirk just pulled up on screen, stained mattress that was pulled out of the tunnel, being carried by members of the synagogue?

7
00:00:37,020 --> 00:00:39,080
So there's a lot of crazy conspiracy theories.

8
00:00:39,180 --> 00:00:42,440
I don't want to go down any tasteless rabbit holes.

9
00:00:43,080 --> 00:00:49,480
But, David, if you could, explain why was there a mattress in the tunnels and what is this stain?

10
00:00:49,480 --> 00:00:52,860
A lot of folks are wondering, is this stain feces?

11
00:00:53,200 --> 00:00:54,400
No, no, it's not feces.

12
00:00:54,540 --> 00:00:54,740
What is it?

13
00:00:54,740 --> 00:00:57,460
In his blood, and basically, we did rituals.

14
00:00:57,580 --> 00:00:58,460
I said that before.

15
00:00:58,740 --> 00:01:01,440
There were some rituals that we do in the tunnels.

16
00:01:01,900 --> 00:01:07,240
And sometimes the rituals might involve someone who recently died, and we'll bring him down there.

17
00:01:07,480 --> 00:01:12,900
And we're trying to do a ritual to bring back the Messiah, which is a Schneerson, if you heard about him on the news.

18
00:01:13,420 --> 00:01:14,760
So he died many years ago.

19
00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:17,980
But we have rituals that we believe we can bring him back.

20
00:01:17,980 --> 00:01:24,600
And so, was that the main guy who was sort of instructing on the tunnels?

21
00:01:24,820 --> 00:01:25,600
That was a long time.

22
00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:32,020
He's like the head, he's the head rabbi, and he's the guy that we look for, for direction.

23
00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:33,120
Right.

24
00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:38,080
And the news was saying that he is potentially not passed on.

25
00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:38,620
Right.

26
00:01:38,700 --> 00:01:39,120
That's right.

27
00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:40,060
So we don't know that.

28
00:01:40,140 --> 00:01:42,760
So we try to do rituals to try to bring him back.

29
00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:44,780
There you go.

30
00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:46,160
Rituals.

31
00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:49,420
Pretty weird, to say the least.
