Don't get me wrong. Hatzolah is an amazing organization and deserves all the funding it can get. However, we must be extremely careful... not to accept blood money masquerading as funding for worthy social and educational programs and not blood money masquerading as millions of dollars in security grants to benefit the Jewish Community.
Hatzoloh Receives City Council Funding with the help of Corey Johnson
NYC Council Speaker Corey Johnson Removes Yeger From Immigration Committee over "There is No Palestine" Comment - The Jewish Voice
http://thejewishvoice.com/2019/04/02/de-blasio-demands-yeger-apologize-for-there-is-no-palestine-statement/
Wondering if the Jewish Caucus headed by Chaim Deutsch publicly condemned speaker of the House Corey Johnson for taking Kalmen Yeger off the immigration committee after speaking the truth about a non State Palestine?
Would the $150,000 to Hatzolah been allocated had the Jewish Caucus on NYC Council advocated for Yeger?
There is a time for consensus building... but not with those who are advocating and empowering those out for Israel's destruction.
Those politicians that ally with the likes of Hakeem Jeffries and Jumaane Williams who Advocate for Linda Sarsour are those whose agenda is to empower Israel's enemies and NOT the Jewish community of NY.
Sure they will throw a juicy bone or two to buy our silence.
Is this blood money along with the millions freed for Yeshivas following the Iran Deal in 2015 and the money allocated to UTJ before the Gush Katif Expulsion in 2005?
Surely after 120 years we will need to answer to a Heavenly court!
Will Chaim Deutsch now speak out against Yvette Clarke's endorsement antiSemitic House Resolution 2407 ?
Fyi....
H.R.2407 Is the Nightmare You Expected from Loony Lefty Democratic Congresswomen endorsed by Yvette Clarke
Will money for Hatzolah and other worthy programs for JCCs, Security etc. buy silence against antiSemitic resolutions be it in the City Council or in USA Congress.
If so, it's blood money.
Fyi when the ZOA lobby went to Yvette Clarke's office on DC this past Wednesday June 20, 2019 none of her staffers were around to greet them. Only some college interns.
The Democratic party with Pelosi, Schumer and Nadler at the leadership have turned their backs on Israel.
My fear is that NY State and NYC are at great risk of decline like CA with a Democratic Assembly and Democratic Council.
Florida on the other hand is on the rise with deSantis partnering economically with Judea and Samaria.
We voted these politicians into office...or shall we clarify...we stood on the fence and didn't oppose their candidacy nor did we support or try to find a worthy candidate to oppose them. We merely gave up without a fight saying we are going to lose if we try so what's the point. We have to be in their good graces.
Are we so dependent on this poisonous source of funding for our financing that we are incapable to fight for what's best for Israel?
New York had better find charismatic Republican candidates to run for office and retake Democratic Congressmen and Senators, Assemblymen/women and Councilmen/women who at the moment are supporting the likes of Hamas, Infanticide and in the past are on record for supporting billions of dollars freed for a nuclear Iran and advocated for Planned Parenthood and "Reproductive Rights" aka Infanticide.
Even if via TeachNYS Yeshivas and day schools and Synagogues succeed to get funding for security from Democratic sources, my fear is that somehow they will set the rules and I doubt the security will come from a pool of trusted veteran IDF soldiers residing in the tri State area.
Right now the anti gun laws in New York City doesn't easily allow for trusted armed security guards we hire privately and trust who have been vetted to protect shuls and schools. Getting gun permits and permits to carry any kind of guns are prohibitively difficult. Will our enemies really allow armed Jews in NY? Just look how they slander and criminalize the IDF. I wonder what guidelines will be put in place and if we won't chas veShalom risk the lives of members of our community by allowing wolves to guard the hen house.

Overt antisemitism is better than hidden. At least we know whom we are dealing with.
We are dealing with some snakes who will try to divide us, charm us and buy us off so that we betray Acheinu Yisroel.
Don't let them.
