Under the radical Leftist mayor Bill de Blasio, New York City is dangerous for Jews. President Trump must take action to end this crisis before someone is killed. #Jexodus!

By Arutz Sheva, December 21, 2019:

Police arrested a man who broke into a dormitory at Yeshiva University in Manhattan and set fires using matches intended for lighting a Hanukkah menorah, The Associated Press reports.

No one was injured by the fires that were set early Friday. Fire department officials said there was no indication the episode was a hate crime, according to the report.

The suspect, 33-year-old Peter Weyand, was awaiting arraignment Saturday after being arrested on arson and other charges. It was unclear whether he has a lawyer who can comment on the charges.

Fire Commissioner Daniel Nigro said Weyand set three separate fires at the dorm as students slept around 4:00 a.m. Friday. The blazes were quickly extinguished.

The fire department released surveillance video showing a man kicking out part of a glass door to the lobby and then crawling through it, briefly picking up a front-desk phone and continuing into the building.

I use it as a moniker after our cat that passed away a few years back.
We had him for nearly 20 years. It was the first time I had to let a cat go as an adult.
Cancer got him and he had stopped eating. I couldn’t see letting him starve to death. He was already very thin. He was a fun guy when he was healthy.

Right you are!

Watch the video. It seems the glass window was not well secured in the frame.

Breaks into a religious dorm and intentionally sets three fires and yet the fire marshals almost immediately pronounce that it is not a hate crime. Something definitely stinks in New York.

I wonder what they would say about an intentional fire at a Muslim school? Islamophobia, hate crime, racism and the rest of its isms out there. CAIR would be outraged with anything short of that conclusion.

But I can see it now: innocent by mental deficit. Hey, it was only an attack upon Jews. .

Seems God is “souring the milk” to motivate the children of Israel out of the nations, and back to Israel so that He can judge those nations… Remember Lot and his family.

Very recently, Irvin Baxter (End of the Age) warned all Jews in Europe to flee now. Go home to Israel or America, but get out of Europe, now! This is a great TV program, along with that of Focus On Israel, Proclaiming Justice to the nations… These two shows have current info at their fingertips that we just do not see on regular programming of the non fake news type.

Yet, his broadcast, along with Focus On Israel’s telecast, is front and center on these last days and the state of Jewish persecution. In fact IAW the Word of God’s events, Baxter is warning Jews all over Europe to flee, now, and return to Israel and/or the USA due to hate on the upswing and the soon coming battle of Armageddon ensuing. The only other man of God coming close to their info and knowledge is JVI…

They can’t set bail to keep him in jail because DeBlasio has abolished bail. https://newyork.cbslocal.com/2019/11/06/de-blasio-inmates-gifts-court/
