Yesterday the Police pulled a dirty stunt and turned the tables on the Jewish victim of a beating when they released his assailant and arrested the victim (Click Here to Read About it). This is the beginning of the summer, and the beginning what it would look like with our current Commanding Officer who has displayed his colors as a non-sympathetic leader.

The meeting takes place at 7:30pm in the auditorium of the Public School at 400 Empire Boulevard across from the Precinct on the corner of New York Avenue.

The AFP news agency has published a Television show, “Moscow's Mobile Synagogue.” The Mitzvah Tank was launched in 2007.

It's a synagogue on wheels, with a mission to bring Russia's secular Jews back to their roots — or, rather, to bring their roots to them.
