Mourners leaving a memorial service for Henry Kissinger on the Upper East Side were harassed by a group of radicals, as shown in video footage. Six individuals trailed a couple who had paid their respects at Temple Emanu-El, waving signs and verbally abusing them. The protesters, including pro-Palestine demonstrators, disrupted attendees, shouted insults, and threw water at them. Far-left protesters gathered across the street, cheering Kissinger’s death and engaging in violent confrontations, including one involving an individual with an Israeli flag pin. The incidents prompted criticism, with one observer calling the actions “cowardice” and a “new low.” Henry Kissinger, a significant figure in US foreign policy, passed away at the age of 100 on November 29, 2023.

In summer 2023, Queens Jewish native and Oscar-nominee Jesse Eisenberg traveled to Poland, but not for a leisure trip. He set out to manifest his dream film project, which he spent steadfastly preparing over the last 15 years. Delving deep into the depths of his proud Jewish-Polish heritage, Eisenberg co-produced, wrote, starred, and directed A Real Pain, a fictional picture set in the modern backdrop of the Central European country that, like its title suggests, elicits “real pain” – both in its historical scope and in confronting human foibles. Eisenberg and co-star Kieran Culkin portray mismatched cousins – David and Benji – who together join a heritage tour throughout Poland after the loss of their grandmother, Dora. As part of her will, Dora implores her grandsons to visit the country’s historical touchstone locales.
