Around the Jewish World
We're dedicated to coverage of North American Jewry and the
land of Israel, but we know that news continues to flow from
Jewish communities throughout the world. That's why we've
added a new feature to our online service.
Coordinated by Web Producer Joshua Paul Cane, the JN
Online feature is called "Around the Jewish World." Open

"Each week, we'll pull together a range of global stories that
inform, enlighten or entertain," says Robert A. Sklar, editor of
the Jewish News. "We'll try to offer a nice package that gives an
insightful look at what's going on around the Jewish world,
especially in Europe and the former Soviet Union."
As always, we welcome your feedback.
