The problem didn\u2019t begin with the weeks following October 7<sup>th<\/sup> attacks. It\u2019s been growing on a number of campuses,\u201d she said. \u201cWhile his assessment will be focused on CUNY, his recommendations will be a roadmap for institutions across the state and the country. My commitment to your safety is unwavering, but we can\u2019t do it alone.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The governor also made a reference to the protests that took place in New York and around the nation after George Floyd passed away in Minneapolis in 2020, asking activists where the \u201callies\u201d of Jewish New Yorkers were now.\u00a0<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\">\n<p>\u201cHate crimes after Muslims rose in the aftermath of 9\/11,\u201d Hochul said. \u201cAnd New Yorkers of all faiths stood up for them. Hate crimes against Asian Americans rose during the pandemic, and New Yorkers of all origins stood up for them. And after George Floyd was murdered, New Yorkers of all races stood up for Black Lives Matter. Today, Jewish New Yorkers are experiencing the greatest increase in anti-Semitic hate crimes in decades. And I must ask, where are their allies now?\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Hochul, who recently visited Israel to observe the October 7<sup>th<\/sup> tragedies by Hamas against Jewish citizens firsthand, claimed that she asked for humanitarian help for Gaza. She\u00a0called for the release of hostages and criticized videos portraying \u201cheartless protestors\u201d in New York tearing down posters of Jewish hostages held captive by Hamas.<\/p>\n<p>Regarding Jewish New Yorkers with relatives who are currently missing, Hochul expressed that \u201cthey suffer again at the image of their loved ones\u2019 photo being ripped down by heartless protesters as though their lives don\u2019t matter.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\">\n<p>\u201cThis cruelty by New Yorkers against New Yorkers must stop,\u201d the governor said. \u201cI\u2019m also making sure that our law enforcement is focused and has the resources to identify and stop criminal behavior and hate crimes. Violators will be identified and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\">\n<p>\u201cToday I\u2019m calling all New Yorkers to action. Stand up for what\u2019s right. Look out for your fellow New Yorkers. If you see someone being harassed on the street or in your neighborhood, don\u2019t let them be alone,\u201d she said. \u201cWe cannot let the fervor and passion of our beliefs devolve into a blind righteousness that cannot see differing viewpoints and the safety and security of New Yorkers cannot and will not be threatened without consequences.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Stay informed!
