Hasidic man attacked in Williamsburg What de Blasio told AOC The New Yorker who brought TV to Israel – Jewish Telegraphic Agency
Posted By admin on January 4, 2022
Good morning, New York. Bundle up today: Temps arent going to rise muchabove freezing.
CRIME WATCH: A 26-year-old Hasidic man was chased by two men and struck in the head in Williamsburg Sunday night. Police are treating it as a possible hate crime because the victim was wearing traditional religious garb. (New York Post)
HE TRIED: Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez blew off Bill de Blasios Israel advice, Politico reports. The former mayor and his staff repeatedly urged the Bronx and Queens progressive to forge better ties with city Jewish leaders troubled by her stance on Israel, until finally accepting her apparent disinterest in his advice.
REMEMBERING: Elihu Katz was a communications theorist but he left a concrete legacy in Israel: As director of its state TV channel from 1967-69, the New York native helped bring regular television broadcasts to the country. Katz, who lived most of his life in Jerusalem, earned his B.A., M.A. and Ph.D. at Columbia University. He helped to found Hebrew Universitys Department of Communication. Katz died in Jerusalem on Friday. He was 94. (Jerusalem Post)
TERROR WATCH: In a Daily News op-ed, former Rep. Max Rose and Jack Rosen, president of the American Jewish Congress, urge the Biden administration to designate U.S.-based white supremacist extremist groups as Foreign Terrorist Organizations. Rose, a Jewish Army veteran, is running to recapture the Staten Island seat that he lost in 2020.
