Last week, eight attacks \u2014 including four in just in 48 hours \u2014 sent a familiar shockwave rippling through the Jewish community. Then Saturday came\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2019\/12\/29\/multiple-people-stabbed-in-attack-at-rockland-county-synagogue\/\">the horrific stabbing in Monsey, New York<\/a>. The poison of Jew-hatred is spreading.<\/p>\n<p>Like many of you, I\u2019m thinking, \u201cNot this subject again.\u201d How many columns can be devoted to it? I\u2019ve read them. I\u2019ve written them. It\u2019s exhausting, and it\u2019s dreary. Jews are being beaten up, anti-Semitism flows some years and ebbs in others. So what?<\/p>\n<p>But it matters \u2014 gravely.<\/p>\n<p>Mayor de Blasio released his usual by-the-numbers statement. \u201cHate doesn\u2019t have a home in our city,\u201d he tweeted. But hate does have a home here, and it has found it while Hizzoner has mostly looked away.<\/p>\n<p>The mayor added: \u201cIn light of recent anti-Semitic attacks, the NYPD will increase their presence in Borough Park, Crown Heights and Williamsburg.\u201d But the recent attacks have spread to Midtown Manhattan and Gravesend, Brooklyn. The problem has gotten worse while inaction paralyzed the mayor.<\/p>\n<p>I first wrote about the uptick in May. The reason the city\u2019s liberal political class was ignoring it, I \u00adargued, is that the criminals don\u2019t fit their picture of Evil Bigots. They aren\u2019t, for the most part, MAGA-hat wearing white guys with tiki torches. In fact, many of the attackers are people of color, as investigative reporting by Tablet\u2019s Armin Rosen and others has shown.<\/p>\n<p>Imagine if they were white \u00adnationalists. How much faster would the mayor and other city leaders have taken action?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How liberals are allowing anti-Semitism to flourish.
