Jewish residents in New York are expressing concern over a growing sense of being targeted. Many cite incidents of antisemitic or anti-Israel violence. The atmosphere has grown tense for some within the community.
Mayor Zohran Mamdani distancing the city from Israel is adding to this unease for many Jewish residents. This political stance is perceived by some as contributing to the tensions.
Hila Ashkenazi, who has operated a bagel shop in eastern Queens for 25 years, shares this sentiment. Proudly displaying Israeli and American flags, she recalls a time when the neighborhood embraced her Jewish business identity. However, the current climate has brought a change in feelings. The shift reflects broader concerns among Jewish communities in the city.
