that was referenced at the end of the video report tweeting:
Asher Elbaz Of Roosevelt Island gives a speech about religion & peace @ United Nations

Mr. Elbaz decision not to attend Julliard on the Jewish Sabbath reminds me a little bit of Los Angeles Dodger pitcher Sandy Koufax’s decision not to pitch the first game of the 1965 World Series because it was on Yom Kippur.
