[New York Jewish Week] Steve Lipman - Rabbi Shmuley Boteach, the author and host of a cable television show, says he woke up one morning two months ago and noticed that eight large trees and a metal fence, which separated his property from his neighbor's, were gone. The residence of the Libyan ambassador to the UN that had been in disrepair for a decade was suddenly being cared for: Libyan leader Moammar Gaddafi was coming. Boteach is suing the Libyan government for damaging his property, and will sponsor a protest rally at his house, with the participation of local government officials, on Sunday at 11 a.m., saying, "I don't want a terrorist living next door to me." Englewood officials said the Libyan property "was millions of dollars in arrears in property taxes."
