Brooklyn, New York, USA, 20060428: Followers of Aaron Teitelbaum congregate in a temporary tent synagogue for the shabbath, in Williamsburg, Brooklyn on April 28, 2006. The tent was erected as a show of power against Aaron?s brother Zelman. When their father, Satmar Rebbe Moshe Teitelbaum died on April 24th 2006, a long argument between his sons Aaron, 58, and Zalman, 54, escalated. The topic of the argument: Who is the rightfully heir to the Grand Rebbe title. Aaron and Zalman and their two congregations continue to fight a bitter conflict, in and out of the court system.
