October 7, 2023
The staff and leadership of The Weitzman stand proudly in solidarity with Israel following the launch of more than 7,000 rockets into Israel from Gaza by the terrorist group Hamas today. This incursion along with ground assaults and kidnappings of Israeli soldiers and citizens killed more than 100 and injured hundreds more.
On this 50th anniversary of the Yom Kippur war, Jews in Israel have been attacked observing Shabbat and celebrating the joyous holiday of Simchat Torah.
An attack on Jews for being Jews is an attack on us all.
