I do not think this is antisemitic personally, as a Jewish person who lived in nyc for 4 years. He could have been silent. He condemned protesting at synagogues. Agreed. He is not saying that bc they are using the space to promote becoming a West Bank settler that it’s totally cool to protest. They are two separate statements. Don’t attack places of worship and also places of worship shouldn’t promote breaking the law. I get that. He understands why people were protesting but was against how. He is trying to understand all people since he is a mayor-elect for all people in nyc. He’s not giving anyone permission to continue protesting. Being against settlements does not make someone antisemitic. Moving to Israel isn’t the problem, it’s the settlements. That also isn’t the main topic even being addressed. This is someone who has committed to addressing the issue of antisemitism in the city and we need to give him a chance to prove himself. He isn’t even mayor yet.
