דער קערפער פֿון השם"#Rabbi #RazielCohen, 29, known on #socialmedia as “#TheTacticalRabbi,” has spent recent years leading an unusual initiative in the #UnitedStates: an academy that trains #Jews in #firearms use and #selfdefense. Against the backdrop of rising #antisemitic incidents across the United States and growing anxiety within #Jewish communities since #Hamas’ #Oct7 terror attack, #Cohen says demand for his training programs has surged sharply.
Cohen was recently documented instructing students at a private #shootingrange in a wooded area of #Pennsylvania’s Pocono Mountains. During the training, participants practiced firing #AR15 #rifles, quick-draw drills and tactical movement. “Jews today understand that the only person who can protect their lives and their families is themselves,” he told the website NorthJersey [dot] com."
