New York leaders express outrage over ‘antisemitic’ protest in Brooklyn Jewish neighborhood

Political leaders in New York condemn an anti-Israel protest that took place last night in Boro Park, a Brooklyn neighborhood with a large Orthodox population.

Senator Chuck Schumer of New York, says:
“Mask-wearing protesters chanting antisemitic slogans in the middle of the most Orthodox Jewish community in the city is all about provocation and not about free speech,”

“I applaud the NYPD for keeping order and condemn in strongest terms those who used antisemitic language and symbolism at this event.”

New York Governor Kathy Hochul says:
“We saw protesters in Boro Park targeting Jewish New Yorkers with hateful rhetoric and antisemitic chants. This is unacceptable.”

The minority leader of the House of Representatives, Hakeem Jeffries, also of New York, says:
“The vile and antisemitic rhetoric directed at Jewish residents in Borough Park is unacceptable and unconscionable.”

Mayor Eric Adams says:
“Antisemitism has no place in New York City, and bringing it to Borough Park is disgraceful,”
“We will not tolerate attacks on Jewish New Yorkers or any other diverse community across our city.”

Also condemning the protest are Representative Daniel Goldman; Representative Elise Stefanik, Manhattan Borough President Mark Levine, progressive city comptroller Brad Lander, Jewish city council members Eric Dinowitz and Julie Menin, the New York Jewish Agenda liberal advocacy group, the UJA-Federation of New York, the Jewish Community Relations Council of New York, and the American Jewish Committee.
