  "summary": "American rabbis are reflecting on the 25th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks, which coincides with the start of the Jewish New Year, Rosh Hashanah. According to The Times of Israel, they describe how the attack changed both themselves and the US in profound ways that could not have been imagined the previous Rosh Hashanah.\n\nRosh Hashanah began at sunset on Friday, and for many Jews, a highlight of the holiday is hearing the shofar, an animal's horn blown like a trumpet, as reported by NPR. Meanwhile, in Phuket, a Rosh Hashanah meal planned for hundreds of Israelis was adjusted due to a heated anti-Israel protest near the site, with protesters chanting slogans including \"Free Palestine,\" as reported by the Jerusalem Post.\n\nIsrael's Ambassador to the US, Yechiel Leiter, reflected on Rosh Hashanah, September 11, and called for peace, resilience, freedom, and life, according to Arutz Sheva - Israel National News.",
