New York City DA lets Islamofascists off the hook after antisemitic assault
“Woke” Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg faced backlash after reportedly offering a plea deal to alleged antisemitic attacker Waseem Awawdeh of Brooklyn, despite the latter having reportedly threatened to repeat his assault.And this debacle is but one of the reasons why practically the whole state of NY is no longer safe for Jews. The laws enacted by previous administrations like Andrew Cuomo's, which allow felons to be released with little or no bail, have only worsened the situation, as has Soros' own influence in getting these far-left lawyers appointed to jobs they don't deserve. Now, New York City is on the verge of collapse, and it may never be possible to salvage the situation.
Awawdeh, 24, was charged with assault as a hate crime, gang assault, menacing, aggravated harassment, and criminal possession of a weapon for his alleged 2021 unprovoked attack on Joseph Borgen, a 29-year-old Jewish man, in Midtown Manhattan.
The suspect was filmed punching, kicking, and beating the victim with crutches, in addition to pepper-spraying him and allegedly calling Borgen a “dirty Jew.”
The assault took place as pro-Palestinian demonstrators attacked Jews in Manhattan — allegedly harassing and beating pro-Israel counter-demonstrators; shooting fireworks at a crowd of onlookers; and spitting on diners eating in a local restaurant.
In one video, Awawdeh is seen celebrating with others after being released on bail.
Though he faced a maximum of seven years if convicted of the charges, the Soros-linked Manhattan DA reportedly offered him a six-month plea deal, despite Awawdeh having allegedly told a jailer: “If I could do it again, I would do it again,” according to a prosecutor at Awawdeh’s arraignment hearing in Manhattan Criminal Court.
In response, former New York State Assemblyman Dov Hikind blasted the “shameful” decision.
