JEWS RALLIED TO DRAW A CROWD OF AS MANY AS 25,000 in New York City Sunday to respond to what they say is a rash of anti-Jewish attacks in recent weeks. Coverage of the event so far has only been by specific Jewish media and the New York Times.
According to reports, marchers gathered in lower Manhattan for speeches from Hasidic leader Rabbi David Niederman and Gov. Andrew Cuomo and others at 11 a.m., then started walking across the Brooklyn Bridge at about noon for more speeches by leaders including Catholic Cardinal Timothy Dolan in Brooklyn’s Cadman Plaza.
