Recent arson attacks at a Jewish Community Center in Fort Lauderdale and Effy's Cafe in NYC have sparked condemnation from political figures and the Jewish community. The incidents are decried as acts of anti-Semitism and hate that must be combated. Efforts to clean anti-Israel graffiti from the cafe and swift police action in Fort Lauderdale are acknowledged. Leaders emphasize the need to hold perpetrators of hate crimes accountable and stand against bigotry and discrimination.
I met with CST to discuss the Antisemitic Incidents Report, highlighting a shocking 147%⬆️ in antisemitic hate crime, and the important work they do to keep Jewish people safe. Crimes like these have no place in our society and I’m glad to have joined them to stand against it. https://t.co/80NHw20jzt
Alleged hate crime condemned by school and leaders https://t.co/wheJoHMv5g
Hateful rhetoric and threats of violence against members of any religion is despicable. I'm glad to see this attack, which came during Ramadan, is being investigated as a possible hate crime. Those responsible must be held accountable for such hateful actions. https://t.co/rlGek6kw5K
We know that extremists weaponize Islamophobia and antisemitism to divide our communities and our coalitions. Which is precisely what’s happening with the disgusting Islamophobic attacks against Adeel Mangi. Important @lpolgreen column —> https://t.co/nMjmTEZNh2
Antisemitism is evil & is out of control. There are those who justify their hate and bigotry by claiming to do so as part of "advocacy" or "activism" for Gaza or Muslim causes. These sick individuals & groups perpetuate age-old tropes & harm the very causes they allege to support https://t.co/G3QsrIyENV
Today I joined members of the NYC faith community to speak out against the anti-Semitic act that took place at Effy’s Cafe. Thank you to @JCRCNY for bringing us together to show that hate has no place in our city or our country. https://t.co/ct1oxx8qht
Thank you @ftlauderdalepd for taking swift action. Acts of hate and evil targeting of our Jewish community will NEVER be tolerated. No one should have to worry about their safety at their place of worship! https://t.co/KwVa3Bq1I5
NYC Jewish community chips in to clean anti-Israel graffiti from kosher café https://t.co/EYozkF6BCF
Targeting a small business because of who it’s owned by— Israeli, Palestinian or any other group— is not only wrong, it’s self defeating. The recent attack on Effy’s Cafe is a cowardly act of anti-semitism that cannot, and will not, be tolerated in our community.… https://t.co/1RspKtEFBo
The recent arson attack at a Jewish Community Center in Fort Lauderdale is an egregious display of hate and antisemitism. It is imperative that we collectively condemn and combat all forms of bigotry, racism, and discrimination in our communities. https://t.co/g2ZzoUSXFX
