More than four in ten Jews in the United States feel their status in America is less secure than it was a year earlier.

Rabbis, public officials and others made statements of defiance against antisemitism at Sabbath services a week after last weekend's hostage siege at a Texas synagogue.

A British man who held four people hostage in a Texas synagogue ranted against Jews and American wars in countries like Afghanistan as his brother pleaded with him to give up and free the captives.

For many Jewish leaders, the hostage standoff in a Texas synagogue was all too familiar.

Congregation Beth Israel, a synagogue in Colleyville, Texas, strives to be a place where people belong, according to their website. So when a stranger knocked on the door, Rabbi Charlie Cytron-Walker, originally from Lansing, let him in.

A man held people hostage for more than 10 hours at a Texas synagogue where he could be heard ranting in a livestream and demanding the release of a Pakistani neuroscientist who was convicted of trying to kill U.S. Army officers in Afghanistan.
