The latest of antisemitic attacks in the USA took place in Monsey, New York, at a Hanuka party:

The suspect in a machete attack Saturday night in which five Jews were wounded at a Hanukkah party in Monsey, New York, has been identified as Grafton Thomas, 38.

He was arrested in Harlem by New York Police Department (NYPD) officers and “was found with blood all over his clothing and a strong smell of bleach in the car, like he was trying to destroy evidence,” according to Rockland County Assistant District Attorney Michael Dugandzic.

The attack occurred at a rabbi’s house in the religious community — the latest attack on Orthodox Jews near New York City. New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio has come under increasing criticism for the attacks, especially after several suspects in recent violent antisemitic attacks were released as courts have rushed to comply with the state’s new “bail reform” legislation, which is supported by the de Blasio administration, and which takes full effect Jan 1.

It's clear de Blasio's fiasco policies have to be blamed for this latest abomination, and though he has condemned this latest horror as "domestic terrorism", it's still no excuse. He'll have to do what he can to get the legislation abolished, and the governor will have to take some responsibility to boot.
