Paul Berger, z"l, was a hero of the Jewish people and a trusted advisor to Israeli Prime Ministers and Ambassadors, as well as to scores of American Jewish organizations and leaders. I will miss his wise counsel. May his memory forever be for a blessing.

These acts of antisemitic vandalism in Maryland are disturbing and emphasize the vital importance of our LiveSecure campaign to secure Jewish communities across North America. We praise the @JFGW for their response to these acts of hate.
