• 0:24
  Speaker 1: As we begin the first night of Hanukkah and we
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: begin this eight special nights, we have to again.
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: Endure tragedy in Sydney, Australia.
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: A father son killer duo antisemites.
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: Go out and murder fifteen Jewish people at Bondai Beach.
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: I hadn't reported on this earlier, before I had more
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: information and more facts and more developed thought process. But
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: Bondai Beach is in Australia. Is in Sydney, Australia. And
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: first of all, there were some you know that I
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: talked to saying, well, how could a terror attack and
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: a shooting of Jewish people at a Hanukkah celebration ripple
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: fears into New York Jewish people and into New Yorkers,
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: because today I felt the city was on edge. And
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: my answer was simply this, whenever there's a terror attack
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: on Jewish people, Jewish New Yorkers, Antennas automatically go up.
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: Synagogues are protected by the NYPD, and thank god they are.
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: It could be the horrible shooting in Pennsylvania. It could
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: be Hummas in October seventh, it could be what happened
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: over the weekend, and it will always put New York City,
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: Jewish New Yorkers on edge?
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: But when will one democratic politician stop excusing.
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: And Look? I know it's not the time to get political,
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: but I feel like I.
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: Have to say this.
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: When will one democratic politician truly and not half heartedly
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: condemn this violence? I mean, I even feel like the
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: mayor elect Mumdani did weigh in on this tragedy.
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: He did and and wrote this.
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: The attack Anahonica celebration in Sydney today was a violent
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: act of anti Semitic terror. I mourn those who were
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: murdered and will be keeping their families, the Jewish community
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: and the Kabbad movement in my prayers. May the memories
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: of all those be killed and blessing. While we are
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: still waiting for facts to emerge, what we already know
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: is devastating. At least eleven dead, including Rabbi Eli Schlanger,
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: who have deep ties to Crown Heights, at least twenty
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: nine injured. Another community Jewish community plunge into mourning, un lost,
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: a holiday of light so painfully reduced to a day
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: of darkness. This attack is merely the latest most horrifying
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: iteration in growing pattern of violence targeted Jewish people across
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: the world too, many no longer feel safe to be themselves,
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: to express their faith publicly, to worship in their synagogues
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: without armed security station outside.
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: What happened at Bondai.
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: Is what many Jewish people will fear will happen in
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: their communities too. And then he goes into the gun
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: control stuff, as Bondai Beach today, as men with local
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: long guns targeted innocence, another man ran towards the gunfire
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: and disarmed the shooter. Tonight, Letta, as Jewish New Yorker's
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: Light manoirs an usher in a site first night of Hanukkah,
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: conclouded by grief. Let us look to his example and
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: confront hatred with the urgency and.
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: Action and demands.
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: When I'm mayor, I will work to keep Jewish New
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: Yorkers safe every day on our streets, are subways, at school,
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: in every moment of every day. Let this be a
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: purpose shared by every New Yorker. Let us banish this
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: horrific violence to the past.
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: You might be.
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: Wondering why I'm giving Zora Mamdani the time of day
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: On one leg up with Alex Garrett reading his entire.
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: Statement well guess what he is?
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: The mayor elect You New York chose this guy to
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: be the mayor, and so now we're pushed to.
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: Read how he react to these horrible acts of anti Semitism.
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: Do you would agree or disagree that we must read
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: these statements and comb through them because half the city,
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: more than half the city, elected this guy, and his
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: responses to terrorist attacks and to attacks like this are important,
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: they are meaningful, And while I want to believe it,
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: there's still issues I have and I don't fully trust them.
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: I don't fully trust him. Do you fully trust when
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: he says he has Jewish New Yorkers back to fully
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: support the Jewish new Yorkers? Do you believe that wholeheartedly?
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: Or do you think it's just lip service?
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: Did he ever? Did he ever.
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: Criticize and chastise those that left swastikas in Yeshiva schools
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: in Brooklyn? Did he chastise those who did those who
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: spread hate speech like that the night after his election?
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: I don't remember so, but I want to truly see
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: him have the back of everyday Jewish New Yorkers as
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: he so claims, as he so writes, because when a
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: tragedy happens overseas like it did in Sydney. How the
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: officials of our city respond matter. He's also responding as
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: Assemblyman of Queens if you think about it, So his
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: response is matter. Whether we trust in him also matters.
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: But I want to see stern action.
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: Now.
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: These father and son duo are dead. They are dead,
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: and I don't know why the bystander that literally grabbed
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: the gun from one of them and had him dead
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: to right.
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: Did not pull the trigger.
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: I'm not sure why that didn't, why that when it
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: transpired that way, But.
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: You know what I do know.
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: Then in a way, mum, Donald's right. We have to
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: combat that kind of terror, that terror, with that kind
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: of urgency, with that kind of i'm gonna take the
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: gun from you urgency. But the condemnation of a terror attack,
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: especially by those on the left, never feel truly heartfelt,
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: truly like we're gonna stop this right now, because then
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: he goes into well, don't think about the shooters background
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: or what they believe in, or that the other you know,
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: some people did something. I mean, the list goes on
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: and on.
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: The shooter.
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: Always seems to have, especially when it comes to anti
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: Semitic attacks. The shooter look at harmus Hamas has had
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: the sympathy of tons of people in New York, tons
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: of people. But when will Democrat leaders and leaders in general.
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: Fully say we will work to identify why.
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: Jewish Americans, Jewish people across the globe are targeted and
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: eradicate that antisemitism. For God's sake, Schumer had to get
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: Schumer could not even do a book tour about his
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: ideas to eradicate anti Semitism because of the shutdown, and
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: plus I think because he's.
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: Jewish, they didn't want him to speak, so he didn't speak.
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: And I don't only care about the details of these shooters.
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: Maybe I should, but what I care about is they
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: killed Jewish people, and that's the bottom line. And we
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: don't have to make any assumption to know that those
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: two were anti Semitic. We don't have to wait for
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: details to come out to realize those two were anti
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: Semitic as hell, And I hope those two shooters are
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: in hell right now. But I'm wondering if you believe
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: you are the one network that the Democrat Party is
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: doing enough to dissuade and tell these anti Semitic attackers
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: You're gonna be dead if you do that. You're gonna
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: be punished if you do that, from Narco terrorists to
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: anti Semitic terrorists. So as I was saying, I want
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: to hear more Democrats condemning these anti Semitic attacks, and
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: I want to believe in their condemnation, and I want
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: to see actions that support Jewish Americans and Jewish people
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: around the globe. But you know what's also interesting about it,
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: And I was just thinking about this, the good Samaritan
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: they grabbed the gun. Now he did not kill the terrorists,
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: but that go go for it in fortitude to grab
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: the gun and look out for his community. That's what
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: we all have to remember, is we have to look
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: out for our communities and support each other like that
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: good Samaritan did. Know he didn't blow the terrorists off
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: the earth with a gun by gun, and we're all
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: questioning whether he should have or not.
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: But but.
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: What I will say is that action should inspire everybody.
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: If you see.
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: Something, say something. I know it's a trite statement, but
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: you should. And I will also say to the further
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: point that is community looking out for community, and we're
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: gonna have one leg up for each other, looking up
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: for each other, and yes, looking.
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: Up for our Jewish New Yorkers who are.
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: Vulnerable right now, especially during this Honka season. We must
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: be on the lookout and supportive of one another and
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: such vulnerable times as this here on the wall, the
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: GUP Network
