It is a pure Jewish concept that the best way to overcome evil is with positive energy — and Jews are great at “rocking out” when it comes to combining that punch with pizzazz.

“Let’s allow our voice of outrage to be heard loud and clear; Never again! Jewish blood is not cheap,” proclaimed the group’s Facebook page prior to the rally.

The pulsating music kept the atmosphere positive and energetic long into the night.

The Israeli flag symbolizes the Zionist movement – not Israel, or Jewish life, and thus a Lubavitcher bochur should not be waving the Israeli flag. Yes, it is possible to show solidarity without waving the flag. May Moshiach come immediately and the current government be replaced with… Read more »
Go Mendy….
Baruch, that pic is a whole pro-isreal campaign of its own.
אין עלייככםם חבר׳ה לעניין!!!!!
אוהבים אותכם😍😍
I wish he was in the pics, too!! (Even better if he was performing!)
Go Mendy J!! You were unbelievable, perfect for this incredible event.
Every Pro Israel/ Pro Jewish rally: a positive vibe, smiles and unity in the face of opposition. Every anti-Jewish rally, miserable, angry, psychotic faces.
We want Moshiach now
Good to show our support!
