Rally in Paramus draws 500 to support missing Israeli teens

A standing-room crowd attended the rally sponsored by the Jewish Federation of Northern New Jersey at Yeshivat Noam in Paramus.
PARAMUS — In North Jersey, the feared kidnapping of three Israeli teenagers has galvanized a public showing of solidarity across the Jewish community that is evolving into emotional reflections on the greater questions of Israeli and Palestinian relations.

A rally in Paramus on Thursday night drew a standing-room crowd of more than 500 people from synagogues and organizations worried about the fate of Gilad Shaar, U.S.-born Naftali Frenkel, both 16, and Eyal Yifrach, 19, who disappeared June 12 in the occupied West Bank.
