He said it a Brooklyn press conference on Tuesday. Mayor Bill de Blasio, in addressing the increase in hate crimes in New York City under his watch, said, I think the ideological movement that is anti-Semitic is the right-wing movement. DeBlasio made the outrageous comments at a Brooklyn press conference on Tuesday.
Anti-semitic incidents in 2019 are up 90 percent more than they were in June of 2018. A reporter had stated that there is also anti-Semitism on the left in the BDS movement around the world.
But Hizzoner the Mayor disagreed. He continued, I want to be very, very clear, the violent threat, the threat that is ideological is very much from the right.
Mayor de Blasio further added that the perpetrators of the anti-Semitic acts trace their history back to Nazism and fascism.
Former New York State Assemblyman Dov Hikind responded to the mayors remarks in an interview with YWN, This is a theme song among progressive liberals of America, of which de Blasio is just one of. It is like being blind, deaf, and dumb all at the same time. Where are they living? Are they living on the moon?
Staten Islands city councilman, Joe Borelli told the New York Post, A simple look at where anti-Semitic hate crimes have occurred just disproves this unless you count central Brooklyn as the home of a vast right-wing conspiracy.
Borelli further remarked, Bill de Blasio regularly says stupid things, but this is literally the stupidest (expletive removed) thing hes ever said.
An op-ed by David Marcus in the Federalist went even further. Marcus writes, But its far worse than simply being stupid; in fact, its incredibly dangerous. As the Orthodox Jewish community is terrorized by violent attacks, the mayor simply refuses to even acknowledge the problem exists. He is giving tacit approval to those who attack Jews by foolishly pretending that anti-Semitism is only to be found among conservatives.
Marcus further asks, How can Orthodox Jews in Brooklyn trust that their mayor is working to solve this problem when he wont even admit it is a problem?

An idiot or a liar....oh wait he is both....demonrat....
Ping.
The ONLY threat comes from the Left. People on the Right just want to be left alone by power mad Leftists. At points from time to time, we have to convince the Left to leave us the **** alone. We may be reaching one of those points.
...and hizzoner is a damned liar.
So Jesse “Hymietown” Jackson is a right-winger?
DeBlasio is a Communist POS. I wouldn’t piss on him if he was on fire.
As a Jew with Holocaust victims in the family tree, I make sure that I keep up with anti-Semitism. There most certainly IS anti-Semitism on the Left and, in fact, over the last several decades the vast majority of it has come from the Left.
Big Bird needs to account for his wif es “mishandling” of 800 million
Why do liberals say things so provably false?

You could post these words to almost every story in the news these days, day in and day out, and you still wouldn’t be posting them often enough.

“Why do liberals say things so provably false?”
They’re drunk with the power of generally being able to turn them into truths.
Warren Wilhelm has lost all touch with reality.
And Ilhan Omar, Rashida Tliab....
“There most certainly IS anti-Semitism on the Left and, in fact, over the last several decades the vast majority of it has come from the Left.”
One of the interesting comments at YWN:
“One could argue that the Democrats are inceasingly a right wing party. They focus primarily on race and ethnicity, rather than individual merit (reminds one of the National Socialists of 80 years ago). They feel a need to make everyones decision for you, and according favor a strong central state that can micromanage your. The show extreme disrespect for the importance of human life and a willingness to trash those who stand in their way.
Yup. Democrats are a fanatical right wing party. Which means the Republicans are back to being radical liberals (just like in 1860).”
Another interesting comment from the source (whose readership is pretty much limited to observant Jews):
“The three largest and most numerous purveyors of antisemitism and violence targeting Jews are:
1. Black antisemitism
2. Islamic antisemitism
3. Left-Wing/Progressive antisemitism
The loony far right Nazi/supremacists are a very distant fourth. They are a tiny fringe of a fringe. The normative right rejects fully these loonybins.
Whereas left-wing/progressive, black and Islamic antisemitism is part of their mainstream movements where they are accepted and honored as full fledged members.”
Once again-—wrong!! This is so misleading trying to divide and the lemmings believe this disingenuous liar! Marx, Hitler, Stalin, etc were ALL anti-semites! Hey, numerous in the Democrat party are as well and never reprimanded by the left!
It’s gotten so that lib projection onto Republicans is really disturbing. They get crazier by the day, and seem to believe that no one notices.
What is "far right" about Nazi/supremacists?
Are they for individual liberty? Are they for private property? Are they for individual responsibility? Are they for limited government? Are they for local government?

This guy gets it.
