Bill DeBlasio (Who Is At Least Twice the Height of Lilliputian Londoner Sadiq Khan): There's No Anti-Semitism On the Left
No anti-semitism the left is willing to condemn, at least.
Mayor Bill de Blasio said Tuesday that anti-Semitism is a "right-wing movement" -- while rejecting a claim that the left plays any role in discriminating against Jews.
"I think the ideological movement that is anti-Semitic is the right-wing movement," de Blasio said at a Brooklyn press conference Tuesday about the increase of hate crimes in New York City. Hate crimes against all minority groups are up 64% compared to this time last year. Anti-Semitic incidents have spiked by 90%.
De Blasio said he did not agree with a claim by a reporter that there is also rising anti-Semitism "on the left in the BDS movement and around the world." The Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement is a largely left-wing campaign to ban Israeli products.
"I want to be very, very clear, the violent threat, the threat that is ideological is very much from the right," de Blasio said, adding that the perpetrators trace their history back to Nazism and fascism.
The wave of anti-semitic attacks in New York City is mostly due to blacks and hispanics, who are not counted among the most enthusiastic supporters of Naziism.
"A simple look at where anti-Semitic hate crimes have occurred just disproves this-- unless you count central Brooklyn as the home of a vast right-wing conspiracy," [Staten Island Republican] Borelli said.
"Bill de Blasio regularly says stupid things, but this is literally the stupidest effing thing he's ever said," Borelli commented.
But will Jake Tapper run a snarky chyron pointing out this transparent, politically-motivated, and dangerous lie?
Of course not.
