In reply to This is never a good idea!. The rabbonim are of course familiar with the Rebbe's instructions. The Rebbe did not give a blanket instruction against demonstrations. In fact, the Rebbe approved of demonstrations in Eretz Yisroel for shleimus haaretz. The political situation there is very different and sometimes the only solution is to be vocal.

the Rebbe always pushed for Quiet Diplomacy (https://derher.org/wp-content/uploads/69-Sivan-5778-10.pdf). we always work quietly. going to protests, of any kind, is never beneficial – and at best, ineffective. usually it only instigates the ones who initiated the issue in the first place! where is the achrayus?
have we gone mad? is there no one who thought of this simple inyan before tragedy has struck?! lubavitchers have always stayed out of the frenzy, and now they’re a part of it?

Of interest to note, that Rav Tau, the leader of many Dati Leumi (Kipa Seruga) Yeshivos, also asked for all his Talmidim to join this protest.

While we must recognize the tremendous Mesiras Nefesh of the Chayalim, and support the army for all they do, we also have to protest the government mixing in to our ideals, and A) not providing a proper frum atmosphere in the army for those who want that, and B) not recognizing that having Yeshiva Bochurim learn day and night is the only way the army can succeed with their vital missions.
