I have no doubt there will be many well-written social media posts condemning the antisemitic stabbings on the Upper West Side today, and I’m sure many people’s thoughts and prayers will be with the victims and their families.
But these statements ring hollow when so many in the city normalize antisemitism, including simply by associating American Jews with the actions of the Israeli government.
Enough is enough.
I am absolutely sickened and furious by what appears to be an antisemitic stabbing on the Upper West Side.
While we await additional details to be confirmed, we know that what is happening in our city is abhorrent. The fear in the Jewish community is real. Every New Yorker deserves to feel safe in their neighborhood, regardless of their faith or identity.
We must remain united in condemning antisemitism and ensuring those responsible are held fully accountable. I thank the NYPD for its swift response in apprehending the assailant.
My prayers are with the victims and their loved ones.
Hey @NYCMayor, with every utterance, you seem more and more like a fraud. That said, even if you didn't intend it, glad to see you acknowledge the connection between Israel and the Jewish people.
@CatherineM0yim Not only did Tina Smith jump on the Platner bandwagon, she defended him after he had been accused of domestic violence. She betrayed domestic violence victims in Minnesota, including myself.
The far left can kiss my black ass.
Gaza is war.
Rwanda was genocide.
These same folks had nothing to say when Assad with Russia help slaughtered hundreds of thousands.
I’ve been to Gaza 3 times during the war, I’m writing my PhD on it, and I have a book coming out early next year.
I did 16 years in the British Army, three tours of Afghanistan. The IDF operates to the same standards we do.
Streeting doesn’t know what he’s talking about.
“ I sound like the people I’m trying to fight for.” This is the real authentic Haley. Always unapologetically herself. Dosent change who she is just because there’s a camera in her face. This is the person I’ve had the privilege of working with, for the past year.
To folks who still defend AOC — here she is telling a flat-out lie, easily debunked by a simple reading of the bill. Her SOLE aim is to spread hatred of Israel, and by extension, those of us connected to it, assuming her fans will take her word as truth with no critical thinking.
@ErabareshiNinoB@PollTracker2024 Arabs are the "white people" of the middle east. They started the slave trade of black people (and kept it from the 600's to the 1900's), displaced countless ethnic minority groups and forcefully converted them to Islam, etc.
Dolores Huerta, the longtime civil rights leader and United Farm Workers cofounder, is backing Scott Wiener in his race for Congress.
That has left allies of Connie Chan, his rival and labor's candidate in the race, scratching their heads.

Rep. Jim Clyburn (D-S.C.), who’s backing Haley Stevens in the Michigan Senate race, on Abdul El-Sayed’s Detroit rally:
“I saw a picture that concerned me [from] the rally. I didn’t see a single person that looks like me. That tells me all I need to know.”
Black voters are breaking overwhelmingly for Stevens, and she’ll need to run up the score among that key demographic

80 thousand dead: "GENOCIDE!!!!!!!!!"
40 million dead: "You need to look up the definition of genocide. The Great Famine was accidental."
All credibility completely gone.
I am very disturbed by this video, particularly taken together with Mamdani's other recent statements. I do not believe this is about Netanyahu at all. Mamdani is using Netanyahu--a despised figure--to "smuggle" in more pernicious forces.
We struggle to respond forcefully to the underlying message/intent because no one wants to be perceived as defending Netanyahu. It's a trap.
It is hard to believe Mamdani doesn't know what he is doing. Meanwhile, antisemitism rises in his city and across the world. Videos like these are radicalizing gentiles against Jews, all while convincing them their cause is righteous.
Between Mamdani’s father, mother, and wife, it will be far more viable to open an investigation into terror funding and support against his family than pretend the mayor of New York can bypass federal statutes, diplomatic immunity, and violate constitutional federal supremacy In foreign affairs.
.@ZohranKMamdani Reminder: you can be denaturalized and deported. The DOJ should investigate evidence that, prior to becoming a U.S. citizen in 2018, you knowingly provided funds or services to Hamas or another terrorist group—and concealed this from immigration authorities.
