THIS. IS. ILLEGAL.

Jewish man is blocked from entering synagogue.

Witness account: “In this clip, I was standing near Lexington & 67th filming from within the crowd…He wasn’t provoking anyone he was simply trying to get to his synagogue.”

My mom narrowly survived 9/11. Several of her friends and coworkers were tragically killed. I don’t normally share this level of detail on Twitter, but given what’s I’m seeing, I feel compelled to share her story (with her permission).

My mom, a Jewish immigrant from the Soviet Union who came to New York in 1976, came to this country to escape persecution and for a better life. As it turns out, Socialists and Communists hate Jews. Shocker.

My mom started working at the World Trade Center as a Mainframe Programmer at Morgan Stanley in 1987 (Morgan Stanley Dean Witter on 9/11).

My mom was working on the 67th floor of the 2nd Building during the 1993 WTC bombing. Thankfully, she survived, though it left a lasting mark on her.

My mom was working on the 56th floor of the 2nd Building during 9/11. They had just moved her team to that floor a few weeks prior. She had finished a meeting and was working when she looked out the 56th floor window and saw that the 1st Building had been hit. She thought it was an electrical explosion or something since they were always doing some work in the buildings. She saw paper and debris flying everywhere, and thick smoke pouring out. No one really knew what was going on, but remembering the 1993 bombing, her gut instinct was to get out of there.

My mom grabbed her small pouch that had some spare cash in it, grabbed a few of her coworkers, and they started going down the building. When they had reached the 22nd floor, the 2nd plane hit the 2nd Building. She knew she was on the 22nd floor because of a massive column in the center of the building, and they felt the whole building shake. Her and the people with her began sprinting down the stairs to get out.

My mom didn’t know what was going on, but seeing the smoke and knowing that it was toxic to breathe in, wanted to get as far away as possible. She just started walking, trying to get to Queens. She made her way through Chinatown, and out of a gut instinct, went into a store and bought a disposable camera with the emergency money in her pouch. She took many photos of the buildings, and was able to get them developed. I don’t know think any documentaries have ever gotten ahold of them, but I’ll share a few here.

My mom kept walking. Walking to Queens. By the time she had made it to the 59th St Bridge, someone she was passing by told her that The Twin Towers had collapsed. “What do you mean? I was just at work a second ago — that doesn’t make any sense.”

My mom was ironically, in 2006, one of many laid off as Morgan Stanley offshored many of their programming jobs to India.

My mom, every year on 9/11, remembers. Every year on 9/11, my dad would tell me: “wish your mother a Happy 2nd Birthday”. As a kid, I never really understood, but my dad would say, “it’s a day to celebrate that she survived, to be here with us.”

My mom survived. Not one, but two terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center. I am forever blessed and count myself as one truly lucky New Yorker. Many were not. Everyone knows someone.

9/11, for New York City, was a New Founding. A transformative moment. This tragedy, and our subsequent grit and tenacity, is woven into the DNA of every real New Yorker.

For someone running for MAYOR of New York City to have such little understanding of this core truth, to go as far as to try to leverage it in a POLITICAL COUNTER-MESSAGE OF SHAMING AND RALLYING, is to admit that they are fundamentally disconnected from the reality of what it means to be a New Yorker and thus, be Mayor of New York City.

If you’re a New Yorker, you know this to be true. You know we cannot have Mamdani in office. If we want our city to continue to survive and thrive, we simply cannot.

[Murray Hill Guy @MurrayHillGuy1]

Hey Zohran, Murray Hill Guy here… let me dumb this down for you. Hamas is bad. Hamas is a terrorist organization. Terrorists should not have weapons.

Embarrassing that the next future mayor of NYC can’t even denounce a terrorist organization??

Wouldn’t be surprised if Zohran brings members of Hamas to run the NYC city hall next

[Yehuda Teitelbaum @chalavyishmael]

Your moral equivalence is abhorrent.

The Israelis who were taken hostage were totally innocent.

Here are the palestinians who were released:

•Imad Qawasmeh, 52 (Hamas) – convicted for the 2004 Beersheva bus bombing that killed 16 Israelis

•Qassem Aref Khalil al-Asafreh, 36 (Hamas) – involved in 2019 stabbing murder of yeshivah student Dvir Sorek

•Muhammad Aref Samhan, 55 (Fatah/Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades) – responsible for 2003 Jerusalem bus bombing killing 23

•Ibrahim Muhammad al-Raai, 46 (Fatah/Tanzim) – responsible for 2006 Nablus bombing and multiple shooting attacks

•Rashid Mahmoud Omar, 48 (Fatah) – convicted of murder of a Palestinian collaborator

•Raad Abd al-Aziz, 45 (Fatah) – convicted of murder, attempted murder, and weapons offenses

•Omar Mahmoud Bassis, 60 (Palestinian Islamic Jihad) – responsible for explosives attacks during Second Intifada

•Arafat Hamid Zir, 43 (Islamic Jihad) – convicted of aiding and inciting murder

•Faisal Mahmoud Abdullah Khalifa, 43 (Hamas) – jailed since December 2024 for weapons and conspiracy offenses

•Firas Sadiq Muhammad Ghanem, 51 (Fatah/Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades) – responsible for attacks causing 9 Israeli deaths

•Ibrahim al-Hani, 54 (Popular Front) – involved in Second Intifada attacks

•Ibrahim al-Qam, 53 (Popular Front) – serving two life sentences; deported

•Atiyah Abu Samhadana, 56 (Fatah) – veteran Rafah operative; sentenced 30 years, ending now

•Iyad Muhammad Abu al-Rub, 51 (Palestinian Islamic Jihad) – senior PIJ commander in Jenin

•Alaa al-Din al-Karki, 52 (Hamas) – jailed since 1993 for multiple attacks

The 1700 who were being “held without charges” were detained after Oct 7th during wartime for direct or indirect terrorist militant activity.

Many of these prisoners will kill again as soon as they get the opportunity.
