Jews are the victims of the majority of hate crimes, especially religious hate crimes, in New York City.
Jews were targeted in 345 hate crimes in New York City last year, more than all other minority groups combined, according to NYPD data released on Monday.
Anti-Jewish crimes accounted for 54% of the 641 total hate crimes reported to police in the city in 2024, the data showed.
Since the beginning of the year, 74 (60%) of the 123 recorded hate crimes have targeted Jews, according to the NYPD.
Zohran Mamdani, the radical Islamist and leftist terrorist supporter, has proposed that the NYPD not respond to hate crimes, instead that they be handled by social workers.
This is not simply police defunding, rather this shifts resources away from responding to attacks on Jews, moves away from having law enforcement deal with those attacks and instead has his political leftist allies ‘deal’ with them by burying them.
This isn’t just a pro-crime policy. It’s strategically calculated to protect members of his community who attack Jews while exposing Jews to religiously motivated assaults.
Zohran Mamdani is already building the infrastructure for enabling a new wave of antisemitic violence.
