Sid Rosenberg, a well-known radio host in New York, expressed grave concerns about the rise of antisemitism in the city, stating that incidents have increased by 182% since the attacks on October 7, 2023. He attributes this rise to political permissiveness in liberal cities, particularly criticizing Mayor Zohran Mamdani for allowing pro-Palestinian protests that he believes glorify violence against Jews. Rosenberg's comments about Mamdani, labeling him an 'America-hating, Jew hating, Radical Islam cockroach,' sparked significant backlash from political figures, including Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, who condemned the remarks as bigoted. Despite the controversy, Rosenberg remains critical of Mamdani, arguing that there is a double standard in how public discourse treats pro-Israel versus pro-Palestinian sentiments. He also expressed strong support for Donald Trump's policies regarding Israel, claiming that Trump has done more for the Jewish state than any previous president. Looking ahead, Rosenberg plans to visit Israel in June, emphasizing the resilience of its people and the need for a more favorable public perception amid rising antisemitism in the U.S.
