Joel B. Pollak 5 Oct 2020

New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) threatened to close synagogues on Monday if Orthodox Jews did not obey social distancing rules to prevent the spread of coronavirus.

Cuomo was discussing the difficulty of enforcing coronavirus rules: “I have to say to the Orthodox community tomorrow, ‘If you’re not willing to live with these rules, then I’m going to close the synagogues.'”

What evidence does Cuomo have that Covid-19 is being transmitted in synagogues? If the synagogue rates is equal or less than at some sort of facility that is allowed to be more open then the synagogues need to sue Cuomo. It's pathetic that they have to go that route, but often it takes a rap on the snout to teach a bully anything.

Gov. Andrew Cuomo put New York’s Jewish Orthodox community on blast Monday for hosting mass gatherings amid the pandemic — but used a nearly two-decade old photo to illustrate his point.
...
“These pictures are just from the past couple of weeks,” Cuomo declared.

In fact, one of the photos was taken 14 years ago ...

@Wingnut

Mini-Mario is as dumb as a log.

This is effectively his announcement he is now officially out of NY politics.

Let's not tell him that,though. Let's encourage him to shut down Catholic Churches next because if there is one thing Catholic voters love it's not going to Mass.

@Smokin Joe

George Soros?

Then again,he as been a Nazi going all the way back to WW-2,when he was selling the locations of his fellow Jews in hiding to the Nazi's,so he's pretty much always at the top of THAT little list.

@Absalom

Does anyone know when the Soviets did this,and who suggested it as well as who was in charge of the program?

Why let the Nazi's get all the "credit" for this,when their bestest buddies and allies in the early days of WW-2 were doing the same thing?

Orthodox Jews in Brooklyn burn masks during massive protest against New York’s new COVID rules

Shira Hanau October 7, 2020 1:10 am


(JTA) – Protests by Orthodox Jews against New York’s crackdown on gatherings in their neighborhoods turned tense Tuesday night as throngs of young men demonstrated in the streets of Borough Park, setting fire to a pile of masks and at one point running a reporter out of the area.

The late-night protest in a heavily Orthodox area of Brooklyn took aim at new restrictions that would close schools, limit attendance at synagogues services and close nonessential businesses in areas with upticks in COVID-19.

The protests — as well as angry statements from leaders in the Orthodox community — gave voice to frustration felt by local Orthodox Jews who are now at the center of the first widespread resurgence of COVID in New York since the spring. Many in the community believe that city and state officials are unfairly targeting Orthodox Jews, who are already vulnerable to anti-Semitism, in their pandemic response.

During the protests, community leaders vowed to resist the new rules through litigation and civil disobedience. “We will not close,” radio host and local celebrity Heshy Tischler proclaimed to cheers from the assembled crowds.  .  .  .

Another novel way to resist would be to stop voting for Democrats. Just sayin'.

Yeah,that will happen at roughly the same time a famous Jew named Jesus shows up.

Since you asked, a note from history.
The Nazi hierarchy shut the door to all Jews before exterminating them.
Not so the Bolsheviks of Russia, who embraced them. Yet why?
Because, despite being neurotic malcontents, they were fierce revolutionaries.
The prime example being Leon Trotsky (family name Davidovich Bronstein)
who along w/Karl Marx was the essence of the self-loathing Jew.
Trotsky was directly responsible for ordering much of the extermination
of Jews and others under Lenin and later Stalin.
Stalin repaid him by having him assassinated in Mexico City in 1940.

This isn't very "Christian" of Cuomo, is it...?

@Absalom

Correct,but too broad of a statement. The Jewish Communists were primarily self-styled "intellectuals". As with all people everywhere,most were too busy working and trying to take care of their families to get involved in politics.

And,of course,it is the nature of things for people screaming to get attention,and normal people who are just living normal lives,to be ignored.

Maybe so, but the intellectuals are always among the first to be rounded up and shot in any totalitarian regime.

He shouldn’t close ALL the synagogues because of the bad behavior of one or two groups. And he shouldn’t close them. Just limit the amount of people inside and have the rest pray via Zoom. The problem is getting certain Rabbis to back this. Once you do, you’re golden.

We all prayed via Zoom during the High Holy Days. It worked fine. And a bonus, no lines for the ladies room during the breaks.

Of course.They are always the troublemakers. Seems like they never have actual jobs,and plenty of time to theorize and organize trouble.

He shouldn't close ANY of them because it violates the NY State Constitution which he took an oath to uphold.

Oh please.  Shirley you don't think Cuomo gives a crap about any oath he took, do you?   It's just one of many assaults on the Constitution around the nation by fascist leftists.

Just wondering about the current assault on the Michigan militia group, Wolverine Watchmen (website currently down), which proves that these militia groups are being spied on constantly, obviously.   I wonder if it's just another setup and example of false charges being made against the radical left's opposition.... as they are facing multiple charges including plot to kidnap Heir Gretchen.  Website's back up (too many folks trying to view it)....

My first thought on all that was that someone from a 'task force' of some kind was on the inside howling to 'do something you cowards'.

Like when I was in High School, a friend went to a pot party after some guy he knew practically insisted he show up. He got a strange vibe from the party-goers there, and went off to the bathroom and out the window...and left.
 
When all the cars showed up with the flashing lights, and everyone sorted out who each other was, my friend had been the only one there who wasn't some form of law enforcement.

Note that some of the people in MI were charged at the State Level, some Federally, and my bet is that the State infiltrators were picked up by the State LEOs and the Federal infiltrators by the Federal LEOs, and the question is how many other people were left?

A rule of thumb for any organization out to push for something contrary to the orthodoxy of the Left (or anything else, for that matter): The person(s) in the room pushing hardest to do something illegal are almost certainly from the Feds, or paid CIs.

Yeah, it was a setup ... supposed to be used by the left in MI.   One problem is... the main guy arrested is a Trump hater....so blaming it on Trump falls flat.  Also, blaming it on "right-wing" extremisits doesn't work either... since they were also going to target LEOs, which the right doesn't do.  That always comes from the radical left.   It was intended as another arrow they could use against Trump, I believe.   A very crooked arrow.

Much like the fake hate crime hoaxes that the Smollett-idiots are pulling... makes one wonder.  Since they're having to create crimes to blame on the right now.... is there no other real and legitimate crime going on that they could occupy themselves with?  Or are they just not interested in going after real criminals (Read: leftists) any more.
