TOP STORY: Despite New York City celebrating its “safest January ever” with record lows in murders and shootings, anti-Jewish hate crimes have surged by 182%. These 31 incidents, which include an attack on a Chabad headquarters, now represent more than half of all hate crimes, leaving the community deeply unsettled. As overall crime rates decline, the Anti-Defamation League is pressing Mayor Mamdani to take decisive action against this alarming rise in targeted violence.

VIDEO: Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro discusses working with federal authorities to tackle crime and addresses concerns about increasing antisemitism across political lines on ‘Special Report.’ WATCH HERE:

‘I FELT COMPELLED’: State Senator Sharif Street, the chamber’s first Muslim member, forcefully condemned an antisemitic Rittenhouse Square rally where protesters glorified Hamas and “martyrdom.” Rejecting extremism, Street declared that Hamas should be condemned, not celebrated. His stance joins a bipartisan chorus, including GOP leaders and Governor Shapiro, warning that inciting violence against Jewish neighbors destroys the path toward peace.

NOT A FAN: New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft’s “Sticky Note” Super Bowl campaign against antisemitism is under fire. Tablet columnist Liel Leibovitz slammed the ad as “idiotic” and “spineless clicktivism,” comparing it to empty moral posturing. He argues the soft approach fails to address real-world threats, demanding tougher, more direct action over symbolic blue squares.

GUEST EDITORIAL: Arbel Yehoud and Ariel Cunio, who were taken hostage from Kibbutz Nir Oz on Oct. 7, 2023, write about how their deep love for one another helped them survive the ordeal.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK: “But the new ad is so offensive, not only because it blows—or because, in reality, prominent American Muslims have spent the past three years acting very un-Bilal-like and drumming up everything from modern-day blood libels to violent antisemitic pint-sized pogroms on college campuses—but also because of what it tells us about the mindset of so much of organized Judaism these days.” Tablet columnist Liel Leibovitz on Robert Kraft’s Super Bowl ad.
