(The Center Square) -New York City authorities said the attacks of two people stabbed in separate incidents in the Upper West Side on Thursday are being investigated as possible hate crimes. "The fear in the Jewish community is real. New York will stand with our Jewish community today, tomorrow, and always." “Months of incitement against the Jewish state from Mamdani have helped create a climate in which Jews are targeted. Mamdani must end the incitement, confront antisemitism with resolve, and act now to protect the city’s Jewish community."
