Just hours after Zohran Mamdani was declared the winner of New York Cityโs mayoral race, numerous swastikas were found in the Flatbush area, including at one of the largest Sephardic yeshivas in the city was vandalized with multiple large red swastikas.
The hateful graffiti appeared overnight at Magen David Yeshiva on McDonald Avenue near Avenue S, in the heart of Brooklynโs Sephardic community. At least four bright red swastikas were spray-painted across the buildingโs walls, shocking residents and parents arriving at the school Wednesday morning.
The swastikas have been temporarily covered with an Israeli flag and paper as NYPD investigators work at the scene, so that children and parents arriving at school would not be forced to see the hate symbols
A short while later, Flatbush Scoop reported that swastikas were found near the (Jewish) Washington Cemetery on McDonald Ave near Ave J.ย
Just after noon on Wednesday, aย swastika was found on a HASC bus used to transport children and adults with developmental disabilities to a HASC school on East 14 Street near Avenue L.
And if that wasn’t enough, Boro Park Scoop reported that additional swastikas were discovered on McDonald Avenue near Foster Avenue -near the offices of Central Hatzalah. NYPD and Boro Park Shomrim are on the scene investigating this latest act of antisemitic vandalism.
Flatbush and Boro Park Shomrim volunteers and the NYPD Hate Crimes task Force were at all locations and a major investigation is underway.
The disturbing act comes amid a continued surge in antisemitic incidents across New York City. As YWN reported on Tuesday, NYPD data for last month shows that Jews were the target in 62% of all reported hate crimes in the city.

What’s the connection? Other than continuingย your fear mongering, sick agenda, STOP IT!!!
Your Satmarophobic hatred slapped in your face with this resounding anti-Trump victory, it’s about time you hault the Zionist nonsense agenda.
@faceit – The story regarding Hubert H. Humphrey’s visit to the Divrei Yoel is well known. If Pro-Israel equals Pro-Jewish, as the Rebbe ืืฆืืง”ื said, it follows that anti-Zionest is antisemitism. ืืฉืจื ืืื ืืคืื ืชืืื
I read elsewhere that chief richard taylor is leading the investigation.
That is what makes this all even more scary. Besides for the actual policies and actions which Mamdani will implement, his victory emboldens all these cockroaches who will now come out of the woodwork, where they may have been hiding until now. And all of those who were not afraid until now will feel even more empowered to continue their protests and attacks.
Mamzerdani would have no problem putting Jews in ovens
I know askanim have strong relationships with governor Hochul im sure she will step in when Mamdani fails. why have relationships if you dont help the klal? Its not all photo ops.
It will be quite interesting to see how the Satmarcrats (Satmar Democrats) attempt to kasher and sanitize their beloved jihadist mayor Mamdani.
They could try to claim that Moslem hate of Jews is only due to “Zionism”, but what will the Satmarcrats do with the many inconvenient Islamic writings from 1000 years ago, such as “โThe Jews will fight you and you will prevail over them, then a rock will say, โO Muslim, here is a Jew behind me, (come and) kill him.โ
No problem, those ancient Islamic writings were made in anticipation of the Zionism that would occur 1000 years later!
Mamdani condemned the actions of these perpetrators. I wouldnโt be surprised if he establishes friendly ties with the Jewish population of NY.
@RightJew:
Actually, yes. Those 1000 yr old Islamic writings were written in anticipation of the zionists, as is explicitly written in the passage you urself just quoted.
They didn’t know when, but they knew thst the jews would fight back, and retake their land. Because that’s what jews are expected to do.
And no, I’m not satmar or NK. Just correcting the historical record.
Why do you think the Masjid was built, and why it’s called Al Aqsa?
They’ve been waiting for this to happen for over a thousand yrs
Condemned? Bruh. Mamdani put out a video in which he proclaims,
” raised in and by this city
and I am muslim
My love to the Holy Land Five;
you better look em up. Made it truth and jizya ainโt that enough.
…
call up my war bomb”
Every attempt at friendly ties is deception.
When people show you who they are, believe them.
May the terrorist. Hamasss Nazi. be gone. For good.
@RightJew and @Happy_new_year and any other Zionists:
Many Muslims throughout the ages acted quite decently towards their Jewish neighbors. Muslims in the streets would stop to kiss the hand of the Baba Sali, for example, because they knew how holy he was.
Yes, their Koran has some very anti-Jewish passages in it. But that doesn’t typify the hundreds of years of reality of what it was like for Jews to live among and under the rule of Muslims. It wasn’t Gan Eden by any means, and Yishmael is “pereh adam” as Rashi notes there, but it was worlds better than under Christian rule.
Of course, the Zionists did light on fire the entire region, but that is besides the point other than you mentioned it.
@Shuali:
The story of Humphrey with the Satmar Rav – or, perhaps its “interpretation” – has become a myth that is totally opposite actual daas and daas Torah including that of the Satmar Rav who held that it is a big mitzvah to tell the gentiles that Jews are not responsible for anything the Zionists do.
What happened then was that Humphrey was not properly coached beforehand about the difference between Judaism and Zionism and how strong Satmar is about that, so Humphrey was going on and on to the Satmar Rav about how pro-Israel he is, and the Satmar Rav simply nodded and smiled.
After Humphrey left, the Satmar Rav’s chassidim asked him about that, and he replied smilingly to the effect of: “Did you expect that I should give a shiur in VaYoel Moshe? He wanted to indicate that he is pro-Jewish…”
That doesn’t at all mean that anti-Zionism is also necessarily anti-Jewish. One could be a good neighbor to his Jewish neighbors, hold no hate towards any Jews, but still not like the Zionist “State”. This is plain logic, and that story does not in any way contradict that plain logic.
Common sense:
Do you believe him?
Common sense ain’t common these days…so c’mon, time for some uncommon sense.
