Amid the surge in anti-Semitism - senior Jewish community figure against Mayor Adams: "Voters are regretting"

A senior figure in the New York Jewish community, Karen Schneier Dersbach, daughter of the rabbi of the synagogue attacked in Manhattan, attacks Mayor Eric Adams and accuses him of fueling anti-Semitism. According to her, many Jews who voted for him feel regret. Adams' office stated there is "zero tolerance" for anti-Semitism.

Karen Schneier Dersbach, daughter of the rabbi of the "Park East" synagogue in Manhattan that was attacked, sharply criticizes New York City Mayor Eric Adams, accusing him of fueling anti-Semitism. In an interview with Maariv, she claims that many Jews who voted for him now feel regret, and quotes "The Wizard of Oz": "Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain." Dersbach describes the daily attacks on houses of worship as "absolute madness," and asks how a person who saw his synagogue burned down in his childhood now feels when his synagogue is attacked twice in the US. Adams' office did not provide an immediate response, but last week it stated that there is "zero tolerance" for anti-Semitism and that the administration will continue to use all tools to eradicate hatred.
