Jew-hate will keep rising in NYC until Zohran Mamdani stops enabling it
· New York PostThe tide of Jew-hate in New York climbs ever higher — and will continue to rise until Mayor Mamdani and his fellow Democrats stop enabling it.
The latest ugly high-profile incident: A nurse, Jennifer Koonings, launched an antisemitic tirade against a group of Israeli tourists in Times Square, accusing them of slaughtering children and saying, “We don’t want you here, terrorists.”
This reflects, first, the left’s standard moral inversion on Israel: The people defending themselves from genocidal Islamists are somehow terrorists.
And, second, progressive entitlement: Kooning believes she has the right to scream filth at any Israeli she meets.
She also invoked the classic trope of the Jewish child-killer, one used to justify pogroms for centuries.
But it’s perhaps worst of all that she posted her monstrous insanity on Instagram, clearly expecting approval — and got almost 140,000 likes.
Exhibit B: Jakhi McCray now admits to torching 11 NYPD vehicles last June in what the passionate “anti-Israel activist” somehow saw a blow for his cause — because the modern left sees it all as the same: Israel = America = the police.
Recall these 2023 words from Mamdani: “We have to make clear that when the boot of the NYPD is on your neck, it’s been laced by the IDF” because some cops once got some training courtesy of the Israelis.
Meanwhile, the FBI has released a notebook indicating that Emir Balat and Ibrahim Kayuni, arrested for attempting to bomb pro-Israel demonstrators in front of Gracie Mansion, also looked at a truck attack in hopes of killing at least 60 people.
You may recall how the mayor tried to obscure the Islamist politics of the ISIS-inspired pair, just as he created a fake excuse for the goons who besieged an Upper East Side synagogue just before he took office.
Koonings, McCray and Balat and Kayumi are plainly not the crest of a wave but the start of one — one enabled by Mamdani, Rep. Rashida Tlaib, AOC and countless new-guard Democrats.
And unless they speak up to stop it, expect the terror to spread — and to hurt everyone, not merely the tiny group that forms its purported target.
