Siege of NYC synagogue by pro-jihadists calling for murder makes clear the Mamdani era has just begun

A crowd of pro-jihad monsters in NYC besieged a synagogue, making calls for murder, almost 2 months before Zohran Mamdani begins his undeserved career as the Big Apple's first Muslim mayor:

Hundreds of pro-Palestinian activists besieged Manhattan’s prestigious Park East Synagogue on Wednesday night, chanting, “Globalize the intifada,” “Death to the IDF,” and “take another settler out,” in what critics warned is “just the beginning” of a radicalized climate under socialist Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani.

The nighttime demonstration targeted an event about Jewish immigration to Israel hosted inside the synagogue, which has stood on East 67th Street since 1890 and also houses a prominent Jewish day school. Organizers from Pal-Awda New York and New Jersey, Within Our Lifetime, Jewish Voice for Peace New York, and allied anti-Israel groups promoted the rally as “No settlers on stolen land” and a “protest to stop the settler recruiting fair,” branding the program as a “settler recruiting” event.

Radical pro-Palestinian activists pounded drums and unleashed a barrage of incendiary chants, including “Resistance is glorious,” “Intifada revolution,” “No peace on stolen land,” “We don’t want no two states, we want forty-eight,” and “From New York to Gaza, globalize the intifada,” while signs declared, “Zionism is a death cult” and “No settlers on stolen land.” [...]

Cantor Benny Rogosnitzky, who serves as both the cantor of Park East Synagogue and the director of the Rabbi Arthur Schneier Park East Day School, described the scene as “very disturbing,” noting that demonstrators shouted phrases such as “Kill the Jews,” “Destroy Israel,” and “No Jews in America.” He said many members of the community were “very, very concerned” by the language and by the decision to target a synagogue, according to the New York Post. [...]

Rabbi Elchanan Poupko, who first posted video of the protest, wrote that “antisemites showed up outside Park East Synagogue and are chanting for intifada,” stressing that the synagogue’s senior rabbi is a Holocaust survivor who vividly remembers Kristallnacht and now sees “the same human material” outside his own shul. He insisted that “this is not about Gaza and has never been about Gaza” and that the demonstration “is an attack on the Jewish people.”

That any authorities in NYC would allow such a demonstration to go ahead when chants of murder are present is no better than any UK authorities who allowed similar language to be used by Islamofascists who were demonstrating against the Danish Mohammed cartoons 2 decades ago. Even before this particular case, there was a most disturbing incident a few months ago where the NYPD welcomed policewomen wearing hijabs, as seen in the following video clip:

The NYPD Has Been Conquered From Within

Twenty-four years after 9/11, the NYPD parades Sharia-adherent female officers in uniform, pimping the hijab to non-Muslims.

The very force sworn to protect New Yorkers now pushes Islam’s flag of submission.

This is a disgrace to the uniform, and should rightly have people wondering what kind of people are running the outfit in the Big Apple. It's bound to get much worse under Mamdani, of course, and leftist New Yorkers who're okay with this are also responsible for delivering a blow to 9-11 Families by extension.
