NYSN Statement on the Hostage Deal

The release of the living hostages brings joy, deep relief, and unfathomable grief for all who were murdered in captivity. As we grieve for all those we’ve lost, we find strength in our community bond that has only grown exponentially since October 7, 2023.

Hamas sympathizers are on notice: New York and American Jews have rekindled a community that had been faltering for some time prior to this fateful date. Israel has survived the first coordinated and sophisticated attempt to annihilate Jews of the 21st century. It is our mission to ensure it remains the only attempt. Let there be no more hostages.
