Ultra-Orthodox
After a summer of chaos, wealthy and secular New Yorkers are fleeing in droves. Brooklyn’s Jews aren’t thrilled, but for them leaving isn’t so easy, or so desirable.
Unorthodox and The Awakening of Motti Wolkenbruch tell the same simplistic tale.

What laws will it overturn next?
An apology is due the ultra-Orthodox.
“Get the Ḥasidim!”
Ultra-Orthodox Jews have been one of the hardest-hit groups in Israel and elsewhere. Why?
Public-health measures or religious repression?
Culpability begins with Health Minister Yaakov Litzman.
Made for religious women, by religious women.
Another casualty of the peace process.
Even chief rabbis have obligations to the Jewish people.
Driven less by expedience than by a commitment to Jewish particularism.
Even before an election, some rhetoric crosses a line.
