Two men were arrested in connection with online threats to attack a New York City synagogue.  Investigators from the FBI/NYPD Joint Terrorism Task Force and the NYPD Counterterrorism and Intelligence Bureau, in collaboration with law enforcement partners, uncovered what they called “a developing threat to the Jewish community,” and authorities “moved swiftly to gather information, identify those behind it, and operationally neutralize their ability to do harm,” according to Commissioner Keechant Sewell.  The suspects allegedly had a firearm, a high-capacity magazine, ammunition, an 8-inch-long military-style knife, a swastika arm patch, a ski mask, and a bulletproof vest when they were arrested. “This was not an idle threat. This was a real threat,” Mayor Eric Adams said at a press conference. “It is my duty to protect Jewish New Yorkers from antisemitism.”

Hello, fellow QJL readers! It’s nice to be able to sit down and write another article for my readers. What’s even nicer is to look back on the many articles written and feel they’re worth repeating. Enjoy!

 Like many other clinical terms, such as depressed, anxious, or bipolar, the term “abused” is often used out of context. Saying “You’re so abusive” can mean “I feel mistreated or disrespected” or “I’m just not being treated nicely.” In truth though, abuse in marriages is a real issue in the Jewish world, just as it is in any other population around the world. We need to familiarize ourselves with it to protect and help ourselves, our children and our community from both the abuse itself and the effect it has on those around its victims.

I was climbing the stairs to the flight school when two men with olive complexions wearing dark suits pushed ahead of me. They were speaking urgently to each other in a foreign language.

 New York Republicans exceeded expectations in the midterm elections, especially considering the results around the country.  While challenger Lee Zeldin fell to Governor Kathy Hochul by a margin of 6 points, every Congressional district in the state moved to the right of where they were in 2020.  This resulted in a gain of 4 seats to the House of Representatives, as well as breaking the supermajority the Democrats have in the State Senate and making gains in the Assembly.  Zeldin, in his concession, urged Hochul to pay attention to how close the results were from previous years.  “Those controlling Albany should take note. New Yorkers of all walks of life are sick of the attacks on their wallets, their safety, their freedoms and the quality of their kids’ education and are hitting their breaking point, as proven by these results. As they take office in January, Governor Kathy Hochul and those controlling Albany must address the grave concerns voiced by the voters,” he said.
