The Brooklyn thugs who went on a rampage and beat an innocent Jewish youth in New York City’s Times Square on May 20 have been released, and he openly told the court that he would do the same thing again in the future. The man was greeted by the Arab community on Sunday (23), and in a video, he can be heard calling him a “hero.
The Jewish community is concerned that the climate of police and Jewish hatred in New York City has left the Jewish community vulnerable to attack, and that politicians such as Mayor Michael White and Anlexandria Ocasio-Cortez are directly responsible.
Last Thursday, a 23-year-old Brooklynite named Waseem Awawdeh was arrested by police and charged with “hate crimes” for attacking a New Yorker wearing a Jewish hat, Joseph Borgen, who was walking down the street. However, he was released that day after a judge granted him $10,000 bail.
In a video posted online Sunday, the gang member, who has six arrests on his record, is shown being held on his shoulders as people shout “you’re a big hero” at him, among other things.
According to the New York Post, Wasim blatantly said as he crossed the hall, “If I could do it again, I would do it again.”
For his part, Bergen, the victim of his bruising as well as concussion, said he would not dare to wear one of those iconic Jewish yarmulkes on the street in the future.
Representatives of the Jewish community blasted the New York bail reform system and the anti-Semitic climate that led to this outcome.
“The New York City police were clearly overwhelmed and underprepared for this wave, and they themselves have been hit by the public and extreme politicians.” “Speaking to The Epoch Times, Israel Bitton, executive director of Americans Against Antisemitism, said. “[The police] are also hamstrung and demoralized; the entire justice system has been reformed to be so arbitrary and weak that the Palestinian who put a Jew in the hospital with a cane is walking free today.”
Beaton condemned the politicians who have created today’s police hatred and anti-Semitism, and the anti-Semitism that has prevailed over the past three years, including several on the Congressional “socialist panel” represented by New York City Congressman Kate O’Connor and Mayor Pat Whitehouse.
“A mayor who plays politics with this issue is destined to screw up the city, and everyone is in on it,” Beaton said. Ultimately, nothing will change, and there is no deterrent to anti-Semitic attacks,” Beaton said. Because they know they’ll be fine within 24 or 48 hours of being caught; they’ll still be seen as heroes in their circles. This mayor, and the anti-Semites, have created a toxic environment where all issues can be forced to be racial, with the exception of attacks on Jews.”
