The trend of antisemitic hate crimes and attacks in New York City is getting worse, with NYPD statistics showing a stunning 125% increase in such incidents in November, according to data seen by the New York Post.
Police say there were 45 hate crimes across the five boroughs inspired by antisemitism last month, compared to 20 in the same month last year.
The increase, it should be noted, coincided almost perfectly with antisemitic comments spewed by disgraced rapper Kanye West and Brooklyn Nets star Kyrie Irving.
“We have normalized hate and I continue to say the biggest spreader of his hate is social media,” Mayor Eric Adams said on Monday. “What social media is doing to normalize hate, to give a platform for hate, to spread hate, it’s just really alarming.”
The largest number of antisemitic hate crimes in a single month this year occurred in February, when there were 56 such incidents, up from 11 antisemitic incidents recorded in February of 2021.
Overall, the Big Apple has seen 278 antisemitic attacks in 2022 – 52.7% more than at the same time last year.

This all makes perfect sense since all 3 savages:- 1) hochul; 2) bragg; 3) latitia james were all handsomely re-elected during November, and every criminal knows that these 3 creatures shall immediately release them & drop all charges.
Just look at yesterday:- They are way too tied with firm of President Donald Trump שליט”א
By and large these are black-on-Jewish crimes. With some other left-leaning Democrat-voting minorities that the Democrats cater to, tolerate, accept and nurture. The Jesse Jackson/Al Sharpton wing of the Democrats, that no Democrat dares criticizes.
its that every little incident is reported and made in to a big shtink… ask anybody what haloween used to look like or old willy or sukos in east side
a rock at a suka , some grafiti or an egg at a yeshiva bus was never a headline
drive thru willy & bp at 11pm there are girls shmoozing on every corner.. we have many challenges anti semitism is not one of them b”h
100’sof school buses are parked on streets over nite, sukkos covering sidewalks..bucherim on $ 800 scooters and very little problems its takke a NES
I’m not concerned. We have our first African American female Attorney general Letitia James keeping us all safe……………by going after former President Trump’s personal tax returns dating back to 1978. There are reliable rumors that the abortionist James is going to “investigate” the Kushners when she’s done with Trump. There is nothing that keeps a citizen up at night in a panic & fear, like those dangerous Trump tax returns.
What about all the “non” reported ones?
It’s much higher… Jews have the tendency to forgive and move on with their day… we take pride in Lo Sinkom Ielo Titor. Many people don’t report
Shimonthepro: Lo sinkom v’lo sitor do not apply to umos haolom, much less to sonai Yisroel. This isn’t a p’sak. It’s m’ikor ha-din.
I say the yidden of NY should start planning to move to Eretz Yisroel as a community in several batches/waves; the first wave should leave immediately after Chanukah.
people do not understand how quickly things can become very very bad. they do not understand how these days Social media can easily make hundreds of millions of goyim hate us in a matter of days. all it takes is a few things to go viral and the safety of yidden everywhere are in serious jeopardy.
Arizona,
He was being sarcastic
another benefit to moving to EY (besides for the obvious mitzvah) is that you will be helping to make the Jewish character of the land more Frum & Torahdik. there are enough treif-eating michalel-shabbos chilonim here already, and we need help offsetting their numbers so that the country becomes more frum; having hundreds of thousands of chareidim come in to tip the balance on the side of Torah & Ruchnius wouldn’t hurt
Thanks to Satmer and “CShomer Yisroel”, it will get worse.
