Thirteen members of a Hasidic Jewish community were arraigned on Wednesday on charges stemming from a January incident in which a wall inside a famous Brooklyn synagogue was damaged by young men wielding a hammer and crowbar setting off a melee that was captured on video. The 13 people, all young men, pleaded not guilty in State Supreme Court in Brooklyn to charges that ranged from criminal mischief to obstructing governmental administration. Another four defendants were absent because they were in Israel, according to their lawyer, Levi Huebner.

(JTA) On Saturday night, I watched an episode of We Were the Lucky Ones,Hulus new Holocaust series. On Sunday morning, I woke up to a traumatic scene in my own community:a red swastika painted on the bannerthat sits on the front lawn of the suburban Philadelphia synagogue where my husband is the rabbi. Even though it wasnt shattered glass, or broken bones, it was painful to see it there, right there, in our own backyard, on our property, on our beloved banner that advertises our early childhood program and the summer camp my children will attend.
