Carey expressed in a Rosh Hashanah message the hope that the year 5736 would bring “peace and prosperity for the Jewish people in this state and the world over.” peace with justice to Israel and the Middle East, a year “that will shatter the shackles of bondage of all oppressed peoples in every part of the globe” and one in which “fulfillment and satisfaction” will “supplant hunger and frustration.”
