Former US Senator Joe Lieberman was spotted at JFK International Airport on Wednesday morning, escorting his daughter, son-in-law, and 4 grandchildren as they made “Aliya”.
Lieberman paid a visit to Chabad of the Airport, where he watched a video of himself, his wife, and then-baby daughter receiving dollars and a Brocha from the Lubavitcher Rebbe ZATZAL, before traveling to Washington for his swearing-in to the US Senate in 1989.
The Senator was very moved by this, and stayed a while afterwards recounting other experiences of his with the Rebbe which have provided him with guidance throughout his career, and expressing his great admiration for Chabad activities at the airport and around the globe.
