A man put in charge of chaperoning a school bus full of Westchester County kids returning from a Bat Mitzvah in Manhattan was recorded going batshit crazy on the 12 and 13-year-old boys in his care after one of them allegedly threw an M&M that nearly struck the driver.

First Tilda, and now the Jews of Germany: getting in a box is simply the thing to do in art this year.

It's just about time for Hannukkah and anti-semites all over Boston are spreading pretty hateful stuff around.

Here is what is in right now: rooftop beehives and celebrating Rosh HaShana. In Brooklyn, the two practices go hand in hand.

Attention Jewish theater enthusiasts — that includes Jews who love theater, and theaterlovers who appreciate Jewish-themed entertainment — singing rabbi musical Soul Doctor is poised to get a new home.

Despite Richard Nixon's efforts to remove all Jews from the Bureau of Labor Statistics in 1971, President Obama is now attempting to nominate a known Jew to head the agency. And not just any Jew: Erica Groshen sent her children to "a politically left-wing Jewish summer camp with Communist roots." Will he succeed? Not if the Daily Caller's Matthew Boyle has anything to do with it.

"Why do people hate Jews?" Business Insider's Henry Blodget asks ("it's a serious question"), following in the grand tradition of the sages at Yahoo Answers. "Hitler, for example, hated the Jews so much that he murdered 6 million of them," Blodget points out.

At Gawker, we do our best to contribute to the moral degeneracy of the internet each day. So we were unsurprised to learn a group of ultra-Orthodox Jews have planned a massive rally at Queens' Citi Field to raise awareness of the dangers of the internet next Sunday. (Men only!)

A gunman on a motorcycle shot and killed three students and a teacher at a Jewish school in the Toulouse region of France. The man is thought to be responsible for two previous attacks on minorities that have occurred within the past 10 days.

There is a very rural New England debate raging in the small town of Mont Vernon, N.H. (pop. 2,400), this week, as residents prepare to vote over whether or not to change the name of a local, manmade body of water named "Jew Pond."

Researcher and ex-Mormon Helen Radkey raised some eyebrows when she reported that a Mormon temple in Idaho had baptized deceased Jewish reporter Daniel Pearl. But it doesn't stop there. Radkey also discovered posthumous baptisms of Anne Frank and Holocaust survivor Simon Wiesenthal's family. Needless to say, the Jewish community isn't thrilled, and the Mormon higher-ups have been forced to take action. (Read: they sent out a letter.)

The Boston Globe has reported that last year members of the Mormon Church posthumously baptized Daniel Pearl, the Wall Street Journal reporter captured and killed in Pakistan in 2002, allegedly by 9/11 plotter Khalid Sheik Mohammed.

Media Matters points out that Andrew Breitbart's site "Big Journalism" has now used the same anti-Semitic cartoon (from a 1934 issue of the satirical German magazine Kladderadatsch) twice to illustrate "media bias." I'm just a libtard, so maybe there's some kind of irony I'm missing here?

Remember Matisyahu, the Hasidic rapper? Or, I guess, reggae singer? You know, the guy with the big beard? Had that one song? Kinda big on the jam-band circuit for a minute in the mid-2000s? Got it yet? Well, he shaved his beard today and posted a photo on Twitter. And then he posted this to his website:

Mitt Romney plans on seducing a roomful of Jewish conservatives Wednesday at the Republican Jewish Coalition's

The conservative Israeli government is pretty convinced at this point that the greatest threat to the Diaspora is not necessarily from Iran so much as it is from lazy American Jews, who have no discipline and are always spreading around liberal nonsense like "maybe we should try to make nice with the Palestinians" and so on. It has now gone so far as to create ads showing what terrors will befall Israelis who raise their children in America: Specifically, that their kids will end up celebrating Christmas!

One week after the Jewish neighborhood of Midwood, Brooklyn, saw three cars torched, "KKK" spray-painted on a van, and swastikas scrawled on two libraries and a synagogue, comes news of a defaced sign at the Avenue J subway station. It read, "Avenue Jew." I guess everyone's a lot a bit racist. [Daily News]

"Can God take a joke?" That is the rhetorical question posed by USA Today, the newspaper with the most direct link to angels of any major media outlet. The answer? "Absolutely!" (Also according to USA Today.)

Former New York City Mayor Ed Koch recently endorsed Republican Bob Turner in the special election for Anthony Weiner's old congressional seat, helping him pull off the upset against Democrat Dave Weprin. Koch, who supported Obama in 2008, wanted to punish the Democratic party over "President Obama's open hostility to the State of Israel." But that was all a few weeks ago! He's now changed his mind and endorsed Obama, after being invited to a fancy party.

What has your life been missing, up until this point? A man who appreciates you for you, yes, that's one thing; but also, this video, uncovered by Politico's Maggie Haberman: Republican presidential candidate Rick Perry, the goy-est of the goy, dancing with a bunch of Texas Rabbis at a hanukkah celebration last year.
