Anti-Semitic incidents in the U.S. have doubled since 2015, according to new data from the Anti-Defamation League (ADL).
The ADL’s annual audit of anti-Semitic incidents released Tuesday revealed a total of 1,879 attacks against Jews and Jewish institutions in 2018. The figure was down slightly from 2017, but still near historic levels and nearly double the number of attacks that were recorded in 2015, according to the ADL.
Jonathan Greenblatt, the ADL’s CEO and national director, said in a statement that there continues to be “an alarmingly high number of anti-Semitic acts.”

Families battling illness must juggle so much more than the average family, and for them, the challenging Pesach preparations are especially difficult. Misameach strives to do whatever it can to ease the burden on these families and inject an extra burst of simcha into the Yom Tov season.
Misameach held a pre-Pesach event for children the day of bedikas chometz at Pump It Up of Lakewood. As the hectic race to Yom Tov reached its crescendo, parents desperately needing a reprieve were able to drop off their children for an afternoon of fun and take advantage of those precious few hours to continue their Pesach preparations.

A top Israeli official says that the country will officially name a train station in Yerushalayim after President Trump next week during the country’s annual Independence Day celebrations.
Acting Foreign Affairs Minister Israel Katz, who also serves as transportation minister, tweeted Tuesday that the station located near the Kosel and Har Habayis would be “named after @realDonaldTrump.”
“Here, in the Old City of Jerusalem, we will build the Western Wall & Temple Mount train station,” Katz wrote. “It will be named after @realDonaldTrump, who made history and recognized Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. The official announcement will take place on Israel’s Independence Day.”
