Last Wednesday, roughly 200 rowdy protesters outside the Park East Synagogue disrupted an Israel-immigration event. Tress was there and paints a picture of the events and the evolving responses from Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani.<\/p>\n
Days after US pro-Palestinian protesters shouted chants including \u201cGlobalize the intifada\u201d and \u201cDeath to the IDF\u201d outside the Upper East Side synagogue, NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch, who is Jewish, apologized to the congregation during Shabbat services.

This week, anti-Zionist activist groups in New York City backed a Muslim leader who led a walkout from a college interfaith event last week after decrying a fellow panelist as \u201cZionist.\u201d We learn how the mass exodus was basically shrugged off by those in attendance \u2014 but why it is important to illuminate this and other similar events.<\/p>\n
Jewish groups at the University of Pennsylvania have expressed concern after federal authorities pressed the university in recent days to provide personal information about Jewish staffers in an investigation meant to combat antisemitism on campus. Tress untangles this saga.<\/p>\n
