Anti-Semitic hate crimes in New York City have doubled since 2018. Where is Mayor Bill de Blasio? On the campaign trail despite polling at zero percent. Horrible.
Brooklyn Jewish Community Fearful Over Onslaught of Attacks
The Jewish communities in Brooklyn are facing battles every day, but mainstream media is silent.

The tight-knit and Orthodox Jewish communities of Brooklyn, NY are facing an onslaught of hate and violence. New York City Councilman and Jewish Caucus Chair Chaim Deutch called it an “epidemic of hate” and urged the Jewish community to not shy away from publicly displaying their observance.
If you are visibly religious, you might be hearing others suggest that you change your garb, dress differently, or hide your affiliation.

The Jewish communities in Brooklyn are facing battles every day, but mainstream media is silent. The most recent attack was on Sunday morning as a father and his eighteen-year-old son were entering their synagogue, according to the Jerusalem Post. Before they were able to enter, however, a group of three intoxicated men began stabbing them with box cutters. According to the paper, the attack occurred in the Kensington section near Borough Park. The two were taken to a nearby hospital and are said to be stable.
On Saturday, an orthodox Jewish man was attacked outside of his synagogue as the Jewish Sabbath was ending in the Midwood neighborhood, according to CBS2 New York. Two attackers who had been drinking engaged the man in a “verbal dispute” that quickly became physical when one of the attackers pushed the man to the ground and began hitting him with his belt.
The craziness continues in Brooklyn. Older Chassidic Jew just brutally assaulted with brick in Crown Heights Park. His teeth were knocked out. Victim hospitalized. Victim fought back. Others in Park came to his rescue.

Last week, the New York Police Department responded to a similar attack in which a man threw a stone at a rabbi in the Crown Heights neighborhood. Days before, suspects threw a large object at an Orthodox Jewish man in that same neighborhood.
In Queens, New York – the City with the highest number of Holocaust survivors outside of Israel – somebody scrawled “Gas Chamber” on the door at a beach club.
Nearly every Jewish family in the world was impacted by the Holocaust, & this hate hurts us all.https://t.co/LonUTZEbVH

Antisemitic hate crimes in the city have doubled since 2018, nearly 150 attacks have been reported. In response, Mayor Bill de Blasio launched the city’s new Office for the Prevention of Hate Crimes this week, but it may be too late as the community’s suffering is reaching boiling point.

Silence is consent, and Mayor Deblasio and Bernie Sanders remain silent.
Well said, Nefarious.
Yes, and not just the politicians. Too many Americans are content to say this is the new normal….not fight back. And when you add the absolute flood of drugs coming across the border into this country, law enforcement is already overwhelmed.
Amen, so true.
I’m sure he’ll clean it up. If the Jews are all gone, then there’s nothing to clean up.
Whatever happened to judging a person by the content of their character?
Liberals always judge a person by the hate inside themselves.
Liberals call everyone a RACIST except themselves.
Liberals are the definition of racist. Well stated.
Liberals remain silent which is consent, it is however the Left that is mainstreaming this ideology.
CNN and MS-DNC: “Remember, our theme is Islama-phobia, not judeo-phobia. and we need to compare the refugees that hate jews to the jewish refugees of ww2, that’s the narrative.”
Assaults against NYC Jews have been going on since the great Jewish immigration 100 years ago. Over a hundred thousand Jews have been beaten or verbally abused since leaving Europe. The latest incidents have been highlighted by a few attacks on the Orthodox Jewish community. Nothing new here.
try that with bacon
such solid citizens
Liberal Jews will be murdered too
NO BALLS-io stands up for the criminals and has photo-ops with Linda Cockroach. The “little people” and law-abiding citizens mean nothing to him….
The Chassidim are going to have to start having patrols and escorts for people in their community to combat this..
How disgusting that this is happening on our streets. I’ll tell you what should happen. There should be Jews at all the rallies for Dem candidates who will ask them if they will condemn these focused attacks upon Jews.
If they try to skirt the issue, saying all people should be free to worship as they please, persist and ask if they will decry the attacks specifically directed at Jews who are out, minding their own business.
I’ll bet they’ll get a lot of double talk from the candidate.
enemy inside
Man up…..become a Republican….take some knife fighting classes….carry pepper spray….dress like a bad ass…..That’s what I do down here in Texas……I’m a Jew and nobody messes with me…..I return in kind….I don’t back down from nothing
