Jewish leaders and New York gubernatorial candidate Bruce Blakeman blasted Mayor Zohran Mamdani for fueling antisemitism and creating a climate that led a madman to stab a Jewish New Yorker and another victim during a rally in Manhattan Sunday. The “United Against Hate” rally took place around the corner from where madman Raul Morales screamed “Allahu Akbar” while allegedly stabbing a 50-year-old Jewish man, Moshe Yezhak Grunhaus, outside his synagogue at Amsterdam Avenue and West 86th Street on Thursday. Morales also stabbed Chok Sung, a 57-year-old Asian man — in a separate attack near West 84th Street and Central Park West the same day.
