"A SMALL, PATHETIC, VILE CULT FROM KANSAS"

District 39's New York City Councilmember, Brad Lander, issued a statement denouncing Westboro Baptist Church, the group that will be picketing two Jewish schools and a synagogue in Kensington on Monday--Chabad Lubavitch of Kensington and Yeshiva Torah Temimah, both on Ocean Parkway, and Yeshiva Rabbi Chaim Berlin, on Coney Island Avenue. Mr. Lander has turned an act of hate into an opportunity to praise Chabad of Kensington for the charitable work it does for the community surrounding it.
