“Because of my dedication, work ethic,” Popack wrote in an email when asked what makes her a good candidate. “My track record has been strong in everything until now as a Park Commissioner, President of Lawrence Civic Association and as Trustee and Deputy Mayor, because my Continued on page 7

Mayor, trustee challenges in Hewlett Harbor pschug@liherald.com

Three Hewlett Harbor village board positions are open in the upcoming June 18 election. The mayoral spot and two trustee spots, all two-year terms are open.

Incumbent Mayor Mark Weiss, is running for re-election as part of the Residents Party.

“I think local government has been the best form of government,” Weiss said.

“There’s a real opportunity to work with your neighbors and accomplish great things.”

Some of his greatest accomplishments as mayor, Weiss said, have been establishing a strong and effective security force, which includes a patrol vehicle manned by retired police officers hired by the village, cameras in the village with real time access from the service vehicles, license plate readers and the installation of security gates which are in a testing period.

His plans for next term include licensing contractors, gardeners and landscapers doing work in the village to provide a level of security for residents, maintaining village infrastructure and security measures, if re-elected.

Domenico Calandrella is challenging Weiss, running under the Safer Hewlett Harbor Party.

“Transparency is key and I really want to get all the village residents together as

Mark Weiss

Domenico Calandrella

o n e, ” C a l a n d re l l a said.

If elected, Calandrella’s goals include increased manpower and security using local, state and federal grants, repaving roads, installing streetlights and stop signs and sending out monthly newsletters to residents.

The first-time candidate is an appointed official deputy undersheriff in the Nassau County Sheriff ’s Department, Calandrella said.

Current deputy mayor, Kenneth Kornblau, is also running as member of Residents Party for re-election as a trustee.

Kornblau said he brings unique perspective to the current board, as a lawyer and real estate professional, who has helped the village succeed.

“I’m most proud of our wonderful milestone accomplishments in safety and security; infrastructure improvements and flood mitigation through sizable money-saving grants; substantial computer

and I.T. modernization; and the continuous beautification of our Village,” Kornblau wrote in an email.

He said he helped to implement iWorg a digital building department program, insuring transparency and consistency for village resident fees, approvals and code enforcement, he said.

Trustee Thomas Cohen is also running for re-election under the Residents Party banner.

“I think it’s very important as a resident to give back to the community,” Cohen said.

He said he appreciates serving his neighbors when emergencies occur, with the village’s security patrol and as a liaison to the Nassau County Police Department.

Lorie Ruditser is also a trustee candidate with the Safer Hewlett Harbor Party.

“I want to ensure that all residents are well-informed about the decisions that affect our village, and that these decisions

Lorie Ruditser

Igor Noble

reflect the will of the people who live here,” she wrote in an email.

Ruditser, another first-time candidate, said her unique perspective as a woman and mother in the community, could bring a diverse voice to the board.

Igor Noble is also a trustee candidate with the Safer Hewlett Harbor Party.

Noble too is interested in improving infrastructure, increasing security and hosting open forums with residents to address concerns.

“I have great listening skills, I am open minded, I have been professionally coached for the past eight years, which is why I am very organized: I have systems and processes for everything I need to do in my business that I can implement in my new position,” he wrote in an email, expressing what would make him a strong candidate.

Voting will take place from 12 p.m. to 9 p.m. at Village Hall, 449 Pepperidge Rd. in Hewlett Harbor on June 18.

Top Hewlett High students in friendly competition

By PARKER SCHUG pschug@liherald.com

There was friendly competition between the top two academic seniors of the Hewlett High School class of 2024.

Valedictorian Simon Kupchik and salutatorian Ariel Vilensky, found support and encouragement in their scholastic pursuits as friends.

Kupchik will pursue a mechanical and aerospace engineering degree at Princeton University next fall.

His busy schedule, written out on his Google calendar, included many STEM (science, technology, engineering, math) classes, which were his favorite.

Kupchik was secretary and treasurer of the Debate Club, assistant and is currently head editor of the technology portion of the Hewlett High paper, the Spectrum and a member of Science Olympiad. The awards began in his first year of high school as he earned the bronze medal at a Science Olympiad competition.

During his junior year, Kupchik was given the Building Bridges Award by the state Assembly for community service and in his senior year, he won the Junior Science and Humanities Symposium Scholar Award from York College for a paper he wrote. He also earned the Rock Hall History Museum U.S. History Award and Social Science Award for his participation in the social science research program at Hewlett High.

Kupchik is vice president of the Math Honor Society, president of the National Honor Society, secretary of the Science Honor Society and president of the foreign language honor society.

In early April, Kupchik was told he was the Class of 2024’s valedictorian. He had a 104.1 grade-point average.

“It was finally just sigh of relief,” Kupchik said, as he knew he was in the running.

Kupchik knew Vilensky was in the contention as well.

“Throughout our high school career, we had just been grinding against the grades, just to beat each other out, friendly competition, of course, because we would always support each other and help each other with any assignments,” Kupchik said.

Vilensky will study information science at Cornell University, next year.

Throughout high school, Vilensky also enjoyed STEM-centered academic opportunities.

He is the co-captain and lead programmer for the high school’s Innovo robotics team, president of both the Math Honor Society and Math Team and co-secretary of the Gardening Club.

He is also involved with the County Peer Diversion Court performing community service, teaching a Ukrainian student English through the ENGin organization, which connects Ukrainian and English-speaking students through video chats and doing climate advocacy.

Simon Kupchik, standing, is valedictorian of Hewlett High School and Ariel Vilensky is salutatorian. The two friends found success in balanced schedules and support from each other.

Vilensky is a National Merit Scholarship finalist, which is a scholarship award program, presented by the National Merit Scholarship Corporation, a nonprofit that gives students funds based on a high PSAT score. Vilensky scored a 1,520.

Hewlett High Principal Alexandra Greenberg called Vilensky and his mother into her office to tell him the salutatorian news. He had a 103.6 GPA. “I was extremely happy and somewhat surprised,” Vilensky wrote in an email.

“My mom was overjoyed, and I am very glad we got to share that moment.”

Both Kupchik and Vilensky emphasized the importance of balance while navigating high school.

“There will be stressful classes and stressful times, and the best way to make the most of your experience will be to push yourself as much as you can, but without sacrificing the other activities you do outside of school, both extracurricular and personal,” Vilensky said.

Book Review:

“How to Know a Person” by David Brooks

Subtitled “The Art of Seeing Others Deeply and Being Deeply Seen,” author Brooks explores the art of human connection.

To connect with others, to make them feel seen, heard and understood, and to be understood ourselves, is a learnable skill.

Of a pastor friend named Jimmy he says, “when Jimmy sees a person, any person…he also sees a soul of infinite value and dignity… as a result, Jimmy is going to greet people with respect and reverence…if you see people as precious souls, you’ll probably wind up treating them well”.

Exploring the concept of “accompaniment” your interactions with others should be marked by willingness, not willfulness, allowing the other person to be perfectly themselves.

There is a realization that everyone is in their own spot, on their own pilgrimage and your job is to meet them where they are, helping them chart their course. “Sometimes we need to hitch a ride on someone else’s journey, and accompany them, part of the way”.

Citing Aldous Huxley, Brooks observes “Experience is not what happens to you, it is what you do with what happens to you.” Or, as the writer Anais Nin put it, “We do not see things as they are, we see things as we are.”

In trying to understand others, it is helpful to ask “how are they perceiving the situation?

How are they experiencing this moment and constituting their reality.” People who are lonely, who feel unseen, become bitter and mean. Hostility and callousness are rising along with our social isolation. Surveys show to 60 – 70 percent of people put themselves on the negative emotion side of the meter – empathy and compassion are needed when many people you meet are suffering within.

“Human beings, John Stuart Mill writes, are under a moral obligation to seek the improvement of our moral character.” Will we be generous and considerate or judgmental and cruel? To become a social, humble, understanding and warm person, David Brooks’ new book illuminates the way.

A little more than seven years after developers Efrem Gerszberg and Robert Weiss bought the then 109-old Woodmere Club for a little more than $9 million and assumed the club’s nearly $15 million debt, then set off a firestorm of controversy and multiple lawsuits.

The saga could be ending.

Gerszberg and Weiss have proposed an alternative to what was their vision of 284-single-family homes on the 118-acre property and the 53 homes that a restricted zoning plan held them to.

The newest proposal calls for 160 age-restricted condominiums. The developers said in the May 24 letter sent to Lawrence Mayor Alex Edelman and Woodsburgh Mayor Jacob Harman, there will be “many amenities.”

There will also be five residential lots, a dedication of property to the Town of Hempstead to create a turning lane on Broadway and build a sidewalk along Meadow Drive, installation of a 75-foot landscaped buffer, a 300-foot setback for the front of the building on Broadway.

A dedication of roughly 50 acres to a conservation alliance.

The preserved land will have a deed restriction to prohibit development. Five acres to create Lawrence Park. Transfer of the Woodmere Club to Woodsburgh village and a transfer of 50 feet of property to adjoining neighbors. The club also abuts Cedarhurst.

“We believe we have made significant concessions to attempt to provide the Five Towns an Age Restricted Condo Project (a needed resource), while providing for significant open space and buffers,” the developers wrote in the letter.

“We would like to make sure the negotiated points are clearly outlined,” they added. “Moreover, we all believe that public input at this stage is important to understand if we should move this concept to the next step.”

The meeting will be held on Monday, June 3 at 7 p.m., at the Lawrence Yacht & Country Club, 101 Causeway, Lawrence.

Ali Artz is honored as a Woman of Distinction

May 30, 2024 — NASSAU HERALD

ConTinued fRoM pAge 1

“We consider ourselves extremely fortunate for our partnership with Ali Artz and her amazing team at the Ambiance Salon,” said Karla Waldron, executive director of Mondays Cancer Care, which oversees Mondays at Racine events. “Her beautiful heart, soul and dedication to the Mondays mission has helped us serve thousands of individuals battling cancer. Ali inspires us all to strive for greatness and make a difference in the lives of others.”

Artz said that on the third Monday of each month, when Ambiance offers these services, eligible clients can receive a hair color with specific gentler products, hair cuts and scalp treatments for those that have lost their hair.

The salon also accommodates shaving clients’ heads, for those who request it. In addition, Ambiance employees apply fake eyelashes for those who have lost their lashes, and cut, wash and style wigs for clients that bring them in, among other services.

“I make time to sit with as many of our guests as possible and talk to them and listen to them,” Artz said.

The services go beyond what the salon can offer, she added. A

sound healing specialist and Reiki instructor work with the cancer patients, as well, to add to the holistic experience.

When Artz introduced Racine to her salon, she saw it as an opportunity to bring her employees together for a greater cause.

She also wanted to give back to the cancer community.

“I witnessed firsthand the profound impact and joy this initiative brings to her clients, providing comfort and support to those who need it most and giving back to our community in a heartfelt way,” Canzoneri-Fitzpatrick said.

On a daily basis, Artz continues these same values of connection and comfort in the way she works. In addition to her collaboration with Racine, Artz has received recognition for her work ethic and the environment she creates inside her business.

“The thing I love the most about being a salon owner and being in the industry is connecting with people,” Artz said. “I feel like as our world has gotten more, you know, on phones and Zooms, which are all wonderful, you know, there’s a place for that, but I feel like just connecting with people and making connections with people is absolutely my favorite thing.”

feelings for the village, and nothing but the village, are strong.”

She added that she also wanted to complete the lighting repairs along Route 878, also known as the Nassau Expressway, in coordination with the state.

Nahmias, representing the United Lawrence Party, is the chairman of the Nassau County Bridge Authority. His campaign is focused on “responsible governance” and “community well-being,” he said.

Nahmias’ goal, he said, is to achieve a balanced village budget through fiscal responsibility, repair streetlights and plan a cycle of road repairs.

He said he planned to minimize what he called “frivolous litigation,” and foster better relations between residents and

village government. He added that he would promote sustainable development, prioritizing residents’ quality of life and prevent over development.

His strengths as a candidate, Nahmias said, are his business and economic expertise, his problem-solving skills, his government experience, his results-driven leadership and his vision for Lawrence.

“I understand the unique needs and challenges facing Lawrence, and I am prepared to leverage my experience and expertise to address them head-on,” he wrote in an email. “I am committed to fostering innovation, collaboration, and transparency to ensure Lawrence thrives.”

Aaron Felder, representing the United Lawrence Party, is running unopposed

for a trustee seat, a two-year term. He serves on the Lawrence Board of Zoning appeals, and was previously a volunteer firefighter and an emergency medical technician for the Lawrence-Cedarhurst Fire Department. His father, Simon Felder, is a former mayor, deputy mayor and trustee.

“Your needs have to always be the primary focus in determining how we shape policy and direct the spending of taxpayer dollars in all matters,” Aaron Felder wrote in an email, referring to village residents.

United Lawrence Party member Steven Gottesman will also run unopposed for trustee. He grew up in Far Rockaway, and then lived in Cedarhurst before moving to Lawrence in 1995.

“I feel that I’m at a time in my life

where it’s time to step back and give back to a place that gave me so much,” Gottesman, an accountant who has worked in finance since 1991, said.

Village Justice Gary Mandel is running unopposed for another four-year term. He has been in the position since 2018, when he completed the term of his predecessor, Donald Buchalter, who retired and died later that year.

“I hope the people will see my track record, integrity and honesty and I will earn their vote,” said Mandel, who was a prosecutor in Lawrence village court for 15 years.

Voting on June 18 will take place at the Lawrence Yacht and Country Club, from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m.

Hewlett-Woodmere school budget approved

NASSAU HERALD — May 30, 2024

By PARKER SCHUG schug@liherald.com

Nearly 1,800 Hewlett Woodmere school district residents voted at the Woodmere Education, and by a more than 2-1 margin approved the proposed operating budget for the q0242025 school year on May 21.

The Hewlett-Woodmere school district budget of $138 million was approved by a vote of 1,254 to 529 on.

It is a roughly 3 percent increase from the current budget.

District transportation costs are increasing 15 percent and administrative and district wide services will see an uptick of roughly 5 percent.

Proposition 2, to establish a capital reserve fund was also approved 1,126 to 464.

All the Board of Education trustee candidates —incumbents Judy Menashe, 1,362, and Francois Tenenbaum, 1,264, and first-time candidate Meredith King, 1,257, all ran unopposed. All terms are three-years.

Menashe, who is in her sixth year as a trustee, raised her two sons in the district, and both are alums of Hewlett High School.

In her next term, which will start on July 1, she plans to prioritize any necessary capital projects, growing academic opportunities and extra-

“I’d love to see a tech program come in where we could train someone on becoming a plumber, an electrical engineer, something like that,” Menashe said as an example of what she hopes for.

Tenenbaum, a father to two sons in the district, has served one term on the board of education.

“This is a great honor to be given the opportunity to serve a second term,” Tenenbaum wrote in an email. “I am thankful to all those who put their trust in me. My goals remain the same: Preserving a long standing tradition of excellence

while finding creative ways to keep a lid on expenses.”

King, a first time board member, has three kids in the district, one at Franklin Early Childhood Center, one at Hewlett Elementary School and another at Hewlett High.

“Going in, my first year- I’ve been attending board meetings for several years, quite regularly, I try to go to every board meeting- is to go in and really listen and understand,” King said.

Now, having access to inside operations, King wants to learn as much as possible and help the board succeed, she said.

“My passion point is to make sure every child in our school district

goes through their time here and graduates with the best and most competitive opportunity, academically, curricularly, and co-curricularly,” King said.

The Hewlett-Woodmere Public Library budget of $6.9 million was passed 1,275 to 470. The increase over the current fiscal plan is $233,000.

The majority of the budget is $115,000 in general operations and personnel spending.

Michele Chaikin, another firsttime candidate ran unopposed for the library board and garnered 1,095 votes for the five-year term.

“I have to listen and learn,” Chaikin said of understanding her responsibilities as a library trustee.

Hewlett-Woodmere marks Memorial Day The heavy cloud cover and threat of rain did not dampen the patriotic spirit that flowed from the Hewlett-Woodmere Memorial Day Parade on May 27. Memorial Day honors the memory of all military personnel lost their lives in this country’s wars.

Retiring teachers — Al Cardillo and Tom Sugar — served as the parade’s grand marshals that stepped off from the Woodmere firehouse on Irving Place in Woodmere and proceeded along Broadway and ended by Hewlett High School in Hewlett.

Nassau police and auxiliary vehicles led the way with flashing lights and then the grand marshals and school district superintendent, Ralph Marino Jr.,

right behind them was the high school’s marching band.

The Hewlett-Woodmere Public Schools Endowment Fund, Hewett-Lawrence Soccer Club, Cub Scout Pack, 20, Peninsula Kiwanis and Young Israel of Hewlett all took part in the parade.

The color guard was from the Woodmere Fire Department and Hewlett and Woodmere fire department vehicles brought up the rear of the parade.

A post-parade party took place at Hewlett High and included a short marching band performance, the singing of the National Anthem and snacks such as hamburgers, hot dogs, chips, beverages and cupcakes.

vices and to allow the public to interact with and learn more about the military.

The origins of the celebration date back to 1935, when it was first celebrated in San Diego. It’s evolved in many ways over the years, and today it serves multiple purposes including public engagement, because it allows the public to interact with service members; recruitment, because the event showcases the opportunities and experiences available in participating military branches; and community relations, because it strengthens the relationship between the military and local communities.

The event in Eisenhower Park included all the things communities around the country have come to love about Fleet week events. On a weekend when the U.S. remembers and honors those who’ve died in the line of duty, Nassau County’s Fleet Week activities drew a substantial crowd of residents.

There was no better weekend for Nassau County to celebrate Fleet Week 2024 that Memorial Day weekend. In Eisenhower Park’s Field 2 on May 25, a combined team from the U.S. Navy, Marine Corps and Coast Guard brought helicopters to the park. The event featured fast rope demonstrations, performances by the Navy Band Northeast and Navy Ceremonial Guard, military displays and much more.

Warm weather and clear skies made for a perfect day to celebrate the United States’ military organizations. In the U.S., Fleet Week is a Navy, Marine Corps and Coast Guard tradition in which active military ships recently deployed in overseas operations dock in a variety of major cities for one week.

Events typically include ship tours, military demonstrations, parades and air shows featuring performances by the Blue Angels or other military flight demonstration teams. The purpose of Fleet Week is to celebrate the naval ser-

Retailers, electeds get together to talk retail crime

By JOSEPH D’ALESSANDRO jdalessandro@liherald.com

There’s shoplifting. And then there’s organized retail crime.

Both are bad, of course, but organized crime — where goods are stolen in a coordinated way before being resold elsewhere — is costing major retailers hundreds of billions of dollars each year.

And that’s why U.S. Rep. Anthony D’Esposito and other elected leaders sat down with major retailers from places like Home Depot, Walmart and Walgreens at the David Mack Center for Training and Intelligence in Garden City last week to try and get a handle on it.

“I want to be clear to everyone that I am not talking about petty shoplifting,” D’Esposito said. “Not theft for need, but theft for greed. And in many cases, to fund ongoing criminal enterprise.”

Customers already feel the impact of such crime when they find even simple supplies like shampoos and deodorant behind locked cases on aisles. And it’s not a good feeling for customers or employees, “This is premeditated,” said Joe Stein, the director of asset protection solutions at Walgreens. “This is calculated, and it is done on an international and global scale.”

Those involved come into stores with a list of specific brands and products. And even worse, they come in with a plan.

“This is their occupation,” Stein said.

Joseph D’Alessandro/Herald

U.S. Rep. Anthony D’Esposito, U.S. Rep. Nick LaLota, and major retailers gather to talk about organized retail crime — something that is much different from just plain shoplifting. And something D’Esposito says he’s doing something about.

“This is not someone who’s going in to steal for subsistence. This is their job that they’re doing.”

Having so much inventory stolen also has a more direct impact on shoppers — it raises prices.

“There’s definitely an impact that transitions to consumers in the back end,” said Sean Browne, senior manager of asset protection investigations with Home Depot.

Yet, efforts have been made to reduce that influence. On Capitol Hill, that has come in the form of a bill D’Esposito has introduced, called the Supporting Law Enforcement Officers’ Ability to Combat Organized Retail Crime Act. It’s intended to tackle this kind of crime at the federal level by better training law enforcement officers, and direct the U.S. Department of Homeland Security to research and develop new technologies to better stop it.

And it can’t a moment too soon, according to Nassau County Executive Bruce Blakeman, as organized retail crime grows into a real problem.

“This affects the retailers by making it more expensive for them to operate,” Blakeman said. “It puts their employees in harm’s way. It affects the consumers, because obviously that loss has to be passed on to someone, so it results in higher prices for goods.”

And then there is LEARN — the Law Enforcement and Retail Network, where law enforcement — like Nassau County Police Department commissioner Patrick Ryder and Suffolk County Sheriff Errol Toulon Jr. — and major retailers meet to discuss security and gather information on repeat offenders.

Getting a full handle on how much of an impact organized retail crime might have is tricky — primarily because there is no standard definition of the crime in use across the country. Retail theft in New York overall has jumped 54 percent in New York, according to the Council on Criminal Justice. But in other places, like San Francisco are experiencing declines in such theft.

“This is right versus wrong,” Blakeman said. “Our legislators should be on the side of right, and not on the side of wrong. And they need to change our laws to protect our whole community, and make sure that people understand that if you commit a crime, you should have consequences.”

Rain barrel program kicks off in Hempstead town The Town of Hempstead is taking a progressive approach to combatting water conservation issues on Long Island.

Supervisor Don Clavin, joined by colleagues in government, as well as Frank Piccininni and Marshall Brown of the Long Island Conservancy, announced its plan to launch a new rain barrel program last week at the Norman J. Levy Park and Preserve in Merrick.

The initiative includes the installation of rain barrels in several town parks, including Levy Park, Baldwin Park, Echo Park, the Merrick Golf Course, Rath Park, Speno Park and Veterans Memorial Park. Hempstead residents can also purchase rain barrels at a discounted rate, making it easier for homeowners to contribute to the town’s water conservation efforts.

Overall, the program aims to promote water conservation and educate residents on the benefits of rainwater harvesting.

“It’s an initiative where you’re going to be able to collect rain in your house, utilize it to water your lawn, your flowerbeds, and save money — and at the end of the day, you’re doing the right thing for the environment.” Clavin told reporters at a news conference on May 17.

While the last several weeks — even months — have been exceedingly rainy, Clavin said, that doesn’t mean a drought won’t happen during the summertime.

Just last year, there was a nationwide

Town Clerk Kate Murray demonstrated how rain barrels are used at the Norman J. Levy Park and Preserve. She was joined by Receiver of Taxes Jeanine Driscoll, Marshall Brown, Supervisor Don Clavin, Councilman Tom Muscarella and Frank Piccininni. drought, where in some areas, people weren’t even allowed to water their lawns.

Town of Hempstead residents can place an order for a rain barrel no later that May 30 online at Hempstead.ComposterSale.com. They’ll receive a 55-gallon rain barrel, which must be picked up at the Four Towns Fireman Training Center between 9 a.m. and 2 p.m. on June 1 and 2.

The training facility is just minutes away from Levy Park, at 1640 Merrick Road,

Merrick.

Barrels cost $65, Clavin said, and through other retailers, barrels can cost upwards of $100.

“Residents want to reinvest in the environment,” Clavin said. “They want to do their part, and by teaming up with them and giving these out at a discounted price, you’re seeing that end result.”

If anyone has concerns as to how rain barrels work, Clavin said they can visit any park in the Town of Hempstead

where they’re already in use.

“Ask a staff member, and we’ll show you how simple it is,” he said.

The rain barrels, which resemble an average-sized garbage can, collect water through a filtered opening on the top. To use the water supply, a hose is hooked up at the bottom where there’s a small opening. All one has to do is turn the spicket of the hose, hold it in a downright position, and then utilize the supply that comes out to water their plants, flowers, grass and more.

Piccininni of the Long Island Conservancy, which raises awareness for the environmental issues that impact communities, said the rain barrels also help combat nitrogen pollution, which causes major issues in the island’s bays.

“Our atmosphere is something like 78 percent nitrogen,” he said, “and when it’s dry, and especially when it’s raining, the nitrogen is just falling out of the sky, ending up in our storm drains and our waterways. The (Town of Hempstead) is taking an incredible step providing these rain barrels, because the nitrogen is going to kind of just stick on site in the rain barrels, and not get washed away downstream.”

“It’s an investment in our environment and our community,” Clavin said, “and really, that’s what it’s all about.

These are just good, great initiatives that team up with people with a passion for the environment, with good government that wants to help the environment.

There’s always solution.”

Nassau County transforms for T20 World Cup Upcoming cricket tournament to attract millions of viewers

By JORDAN VALLONE jvallone@liherald.com

The cricket world will have its eyes focused on Nassau County for the 2024 International Cricket Committee’s T20 World Cup in Eisenhower Park where, starting June 3, teams will play eight matches over 12 days attracting fans, and millions of viewers around the globe.

Since January, when the renderings for the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium were revealed, work to build and finalize the temporary, 34,000 seat venue in the heart of the county has been ongoing.

On May 15, the Herald, along with other media outlets in the New York-metro area, got a first look at the stadium, and heard from tournament leaders and ambassadors about what the community, and cricket fans, can expect during the tournament. Games will not only be played on Long Island through June 12, as teams will also take to the pitch in Texas, Florida, and various venues in the West Indies.

T20 chief executive Brett Jones, said it was a “special day” for everyone involved in the project over the last two years, but especially over the last fourth months in Nassau County.

“We’ve seen this incredible stadium literally grow out of the ground of where cricket has long been played here on Long

Island, in Eisenhower Park,” he said.

The tournament breaks down teams into four groups, A through D. Only two teams from each group will advance to the second round of the tournament.

Group A features Canada, Ireland, India, Pakistan, and the United States — all of which will play games at Eisenhower Park.

The most highly anticipated game is India facing Pakistan on June 9. These countries consistently field some of the best cricket players in the world.

“We’re going to see over 200 million people joining in on TV screens,” Jones

said, “and we’re expecting over 1 billion eyeballs to be watching TV and video clips throughout the tournament.”

Jones added that cricket fans will see a stadium that is “truly out of this world.”

“We’ve seen really, really amazing buy in from the locals — nearly seeing five sellouts across the eight games,” he said.

“The real message to everybody is we want to make sure that cricket in the U.S. makes a real statement through this tournament. We know that it’s one of our biggest markets in the world. We want to make sure that this tournament in particular really is a celebration of the people

that have stayed involved in the game of cricket in the USA for many years now.”

Nassau County not only boasts a population of 1.5 million people, County Executive Bruce Blakeman said, but extremely diverse.

“We have every race, every religion, and every ethnic group,” Blakeman said.

“And we get along here and live in peace and harmony because we respect each other. And I think that’s one of the reasons why this event came to Nassau County, because I knew that we had the political will to get this done quickly, but also that we have a community that loves cricket — and a community that’s accepting of people from all places.

“This is something that wasn’t here 90 days ago,” he added of the stadium, “and it could only happen in Nassau County, because we recognized the opportunity, and we took advantage of it.”

While games are played, road closures in and around Eisenhower Park will be in place. Games are expected to start at 10:30 a.m., and finish at 2:30 p.m. Park Boulevard and sections of Merrick Avenue and Charles Lindbergh Drive will be closed beginning at 6 a.m.

Fans will park in either the Nassau Coliseum’s lot in Uniondale, or at Nassau Community College in East Garden City.

Shuttle buses will be used. For updates as the event approaches visit NassauCountyNY.gov/5676/ICC-World-Cup-2024.

SWEET CHARITY

Chris Botti

Life’s heartbreak in the Big Apple is told with humor on the Madison Theatre stage

By Danielle Schwab

“If they could see me now, that little gang of mine ...”

Audiences at the Madison Theatre can see “her” now, as Madison Theatre Productions brings the iconic musical “Sweet Charity” to its stage this weekend, May 31 to June 2.

The “her,” of course, is Charity, the exuberant gal desperately seeking love in 1960s New York City. The award-winning show, with the legendary Bob Fosse’s captivating choreography, is brought to life by director Angelo Fraboni — the Madison Theatre’s artistic director — with a cast of young actors honing their craft at Molloy University’s renowned Cap21 Musical Theatre Conservatory.

With a name like Charity Hope Valentine, it comes as no surprise that this sassy, diehard romantic dance hall hostess’s naivety and overeager embrace of every man she meets keeps getting her in hot water, in her search for sweet romance.

“She just wants to be loved,” Fraboni says. “She finds love, and then it doesn’t find her, but she still stays optimistic.”

Charity, played by rising senior Avery Bank, crosses paths with Oscar Lindquist, a square and claustrophobic accountant with a sweet nature and a gentle touch, played by 2024 graduate Riley Brennan, of Merrick. A budding romance between the two develops.

Written by Neil Simon and based on Federico Fellini’s film “Nights of Cabiria,” the star of the show truly is the choreography.

Fosse staged and choreographed the musical for Gwen Verdon, his third wife, who took on the role of Charity in the original 1966 Broadway production. And, of course, there are those classic musical numbers: “Big Spender,” “If My Friends Could See Me Now,” “I’m a Brass Band” and “Baby, Dream Your Dream.”

“It was sort of (Fosse’s) love story for his wife. He built it for her,” Fraboni explains.

Since its debut, the musical has been nominated for 16 Tony Awards and has won four, including Best Musical Revival in 1986. This is the first time Fraboni has staged the musical at the Madison Theatre. It speaks to him as a universal story of trying to achieve your dreams.

“What the journey is in the show, everyone has been through in their own lives and seen it, experienced it. I think it’ll really resonate with them,” he says.

Audiences move through the many realms of 1960s Manhattan: from the broken-down dance halls to Central Park to New York City’s subway system.

“It goes from playful to sensual, to aristocratic, to hippie,” Fraboni adds.

It’s also considered an homage to

many ‘60s artists and personalities of the day, among them Andy Warhol and Gloria Steinem. Through its popularity, the musical has become a cultural reference in its own right, according to Fraboni.

For the 24 actors in the cast — their first contracted performance — this production is an important first step in their budding professional life.

“It’s a really cool show. Actually, it’s been one of my personal favorites for a long time,” Brennan says, of his role as Oscar. “It’s a bit niche, but I like the togetherness of everything — the music, the dancing. Oscar is a really fun, weird part.”

While the musical numbers are big, the story itself is simple.

“It’s not very grand, but it has grand moments.It’s intimate in what Charity’s going for, what she wants, what she’s striving for and how she’s facing so much. We’re rooting for her,” Brennan says.

The dance sequences — choreographed by Bethany Moore, the Madison Theatre’s assistant director — are an ode to Fosse’s signature jazz style.

• Friday through Sunday, May As Fraboni put it: “It’s 31-June 2, times vary ‘Fosse-esque.’ very distinct • Tickets $45-$65; available at and stylized. It’s maximum MadisonTheatreNY.org, or effect with minimal call the box office at movement. There’s a lot of (516) 323-4444 humor and funny bits in the • Madison Theatre, Molloy choreography because it is a University campus, comedy.”

1000 Hempstead Ave., While this is tale about Rockville Centre love, it’s also a story that relates to the strength and courage of 1960s women coming into their own. Female empowerment, you might say.

“This is the sort of musical where women take back the power from men and take control over their own lives,” Fraboni adds.

Moreover, it’s about hope.

“Life is hard,” he says. “I want people to walk away knowing that they saw a wonderful, heartfelt production that leaves them with hope.”

Award-winning jazz trumpeter Chris Botta is always in the groove.

Botti has found a form of creative expression that begins in jazz and expands beyond the limits of any single genre. Coming to prominence with the 2001 recording of his Night Sessions CD, he gained repute as a versatile musician for his ability to fuse jazz and pop together.

For nearly three decades he’s demonstrated why he’s established himself as one of the most important, innovative figures of the contemporary music world; he’s collaborated with many superstars including Sting, Paul Simon, Barbra Streisand, Lady Gaga, Tony Bennett, Joni Mitchell, Steven Tyler, Herbie Hancock and Yo-Yo Ma. Botti’s first album in over a decade finds him coming back to his roots, focusing on acoustic jazz and classic standards.

Sunday, June 2, 8 p.m. $99.50, $89.50, $74.50, $64.50, $59.50, $39.50.

The Paramount, 370 New York Ave., Huntington. Tickets available at Ticketmaster.com or ParamountNY.com.

Bonnie Raitt More than just a best-selling artist, respected guitarist, expressive singer, and accomplished songwriter, Bonnie Raitt is an institution in American music. She has cemented her icon status, named one of the ‘100 Greatest Singers of All Time,’ and one of the ‘100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time’ (Rolling Stone). She’s headed back out on the road again with members of her longtime touring band, arriving on Long Island with her ‘Just Like That’ tour. Many would think Raitt might be eager to rest and take some downtime after headlining 75 concerts in 2022 and another 50 in 2023 spanning the United States, Australia, the United Kingdom, Scotland, Ireland and Canada, and winning numerous awards that year. The fact is, though there are always healthy breaks built into each tour, Bonnie itches to get back to what she loves most — traveling and playing live. Luckily her band, crew and fans feel the same way.

Nassau County Museum of Art’s latest exhibition, “Urban Art Evolution,” is a comprehensive exhibit featuring a diverse range of compositions from the 1980s through the present by creators who were based in the rough and tumble downtown area of New York City known as Loisaida/LES (Lower East Side/East Village) and close surrounding neighborhoods.

Artists pushed the boundaries of what was considered “art” with a primary focus on street/graffiti art.

The exhibit’s scope, guest curated by art collector/gallerist Christopher Pusey, offers an even broader view from other creative residents, who worked inside their studios but still contributed to the rich fabric of the downtown art scene from different vantage points and aesthetics.

Works include sculpture, paintings, photography, music, and ephemera from many noted and influential artists. On view through July 7. Nassau County Museum of Art, 1 Museum Dr., Roslyn Harbor. (516) 484-9337 or NassauMuseum.org.

A. Let’s start with the time. If all of the issues you described take place, you could be looking at five to nine months, typically, and possibly more, depending on the many factors involved. Your landlord has to be part of the process by providing information and, depending on the jurisdiction, signatures on the paperwork for the processes. onte eeper There are several processes: plans, a building permit application process, zoning board process, site work and inspections, and then final sign-off are the normal procedures. Again, depending on the cooperation and decisions of all the parties, the process could take much longer. When this happens, which is quite often, I have to warn the tenant that a year for this process is not unexpected, because we rarely see the landlord lending a hand or the government processes moving quickly. You should plan accordingly by deducting the costs for not being open, paying rent and utilities and incidentals.

I am certain that this is not what anyone wants to hear, but the reality is that few people engage a professional to assess zoning or record drawings of what exists and what governmental procedures will become involved. To compound the problem, the levels of approvals from different authorities are scattered, not in one jurisdiction. There are county, local and fire marshal requirements, all separate from one another. Health department, fire marshal and county road requirements are outside the requirements of your local jurisdiction.

Unfortunately, the search and sales process often overlooks the research necessary to understand what you are really supposed to know before the rental or purchase transaction is completed.

Compounded with the problems is that policies, procedures and building codes are not stagnant.

They evolve based on health, safety and cost factors including taxes and other forms of government funds. This is the reality of taking a property, and I have often asked government to communicate their changes to all the people involved with sales, legal transactions, building design, owners, etc. Instead, it is “buyer, beware.” Good luck!

Electrical testing on the leading edge

Q. I bought a previous business, as a tenant, and made changes, because even though it was a gym, my business is nutrition. I was told that the business is different, and now I need a “change of use” zoning variance. I also learned from the fire alarm company that even though I am not changing the interiors, I am going to have to add wall covering to both sides of the wall because it is required to be two-hour rated and the current space is one hour. This is unfair. My landlord says it is up to me, that they rented it “as is,” and I should have checked everything. My attorney is looking into how to get the landlord to make the building code-compliant, and I don’t understand why I need a zoning variance. How could I have avoided this, how do I deal with it, and how much time and money is it going to cost?

cross the United States today, law enforcement agencies are being forced to contend with a previously unforeseen convergence of crises: An explosion in fentanyl and other illicit drug trafficking. Millions of migrants who have recently crossed the southern border.

And a criminal recidivism problem fueled by progressive prosecutors and their allies in elected office.

These challenges have created a worrying AnTHonY national trend in enforcement D’EsposITo law morale and a deteriorating public safety situation in many corners of America, including right here in New York.

It is incumbent on all levels of government to support the men and women in blue who faithfully defend the communities they have sworn to protect.

never really thought of myself as being the product of a large family until much later in life.

When I was growing up, most knew only of my younger sister, Renee.

Maybe an older brother or an older sister. But in reality, I have six brothers and sisters, which is hard to fathom — especially since I didn’t grow up with most of them.

And we only have time to blame for that.

My oldest brothMICHAEL er, Randy, was already an adult HInMAn when I was born, and welcomed his first son — my oldest nephew — when I was barely out of the crib.

the problems plaguing police officers nationwide.

Americans of all backgrounds travel to Washington to advocate for a host of policies that are important to them.

Between May 12 and May 18, thousands of law enforcement professionals converged on the Capitol to speak with legislators in support of pro-police legislation, highlight the need for additional federal assistance for policing agencies, and memorialize law enforcement heroes who died in the line of duty.

During this year’s Police Week, I was honored to meet with representatives of several policing agencies, including former colleagues from the NYPD, to lay a wreath in memory of fallen police professionals at the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial, to stand alongside fellow House Republicans with law enforcement experience in support of pro-police House legislation, and to memorialize the life of fallen NYPD Officer Jonathan Diller, who was murdered in March during a traffic stop in Queens.

In addition to those activities, I am especially pleased to report that my leg-

islation, the Police Our Border Act, passed in the House of Representatives on May 17.

This bill would require the Justice Department to compile a report on the experiences of federal, state, local and tribal law enforcement officers working on issues related to immigration along the country’s southern border.

Regretfully, law enforcement agencies across the country are being forced to contend with the consequences of the ongoing influx of migrants, with many local police departments thrust onto the front lines of this national crisis thanks to the Biden administration’s inability to secure our homeland.

The Police Our Border Act would provide Congress a clear picture of the new burden placed on law enforcement professionals as a result of the migrant crisis, and help legislators determine where best to divert critical federal resources law enforcement officers so desperately need.

The national conversation about policing has been volatile in recent years, and far too many officers have been unjustly targeted by an unholy alliance of radical legislators, soft-on-

crime prosecutors and district attorneys, and the perennially out-of-touch progressive activist class that have been advancing their abolish-the-police agenda.

Indeed, we have seen the fruits of these dangerous leftist ideologues in the form of New York’s disastrous “bail reform” legislation, the ascendancy of seemingly pro-criminal Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, and antisemitic rioters on many college campuses targeting law enforcement professionals who were deployed simply to protect Jewish students and keep the peace.

The burgeoning anti-police alliance in American society today underscores the need for pro-police Americans and their elected representatives to make their voices heard, publicly support the nation’s law enforcement professionals, and stand up to those who seek to undermine the men and women in blue.

During my time in the NYPD, we were often called to remember the department’s motto, fidelis ad mortem — “faithful unto death.”

For as long as I have breath, I will fight for the men and women in blue, because they need our support, now more than ever.

Anthony D’Esposito represents the 4th Congressional District.

Watching life move too fast lings, Christine and Ricky. We never shared a household. By the time I was old enough to remember anything, they were already on their own, starting their own families.

The siblings that I share with my mom, however, were younger, though not by much. Her oldest son, Rich — yes, I have two brothers with the same first name — is nine years older than me. My sister, Lynette, isn’t too far behind. We all did share a home together — that is, until they grew up and moved out, all while Renee and I were still in elementary school.

I sometimes imagine what it would’ve been like if we had all grown up together. Yet I’m glad life turned out the way it did. Growing up with my many nephews and nieces has been a fantastic experience. Seeing them start their own families and find success has

been even better.

Not having children of my own, I never had to experience that “empty nest” syndrome I’ve heard so much about. That is, until last weekend, when my youngest niece, Laci, picked up her high school diploma at a rural Pennsylvania school.

I am so proud of my niece and all that she’s accomplished in school.

She’s already a certified nurse assistant, and she’ll attend Penn State University in the fall. Her brother, Ryan, is working to establish himself as an electrician. My sister and her husband, Ben, have raised some great kids.

But still, did they all have to grow up so fast? I still have a picture of me holding baby Laci in my arms for the first time some 18 years ago. I still have a picture of a note when she asked, as a

very young girl, when “Unkle Mike” was coming to visit.

Laci is smart (graduating with honors), knows what she wants, and for her, the sky’s the limit. But even she will soon experience the same thing all of us have felt — how the older we get, the faster life moves. Where, in one minute, she’s an infant in your arms, and in the next, she’s a young woman ready to start her post-high school life.

It won’t be long before Laci and Ryan have families of their own, and they’ll scratch their heads, wondering how it all went by so quickly.

That’s where living in the moment really becomes valuable. Taking a breath. Pausing everything. Just enjoying what’s in front of us.

God has created a beautiful world, and filled it with so many beautiful things. Don’t wait until so much of life has passed to appreciate it the most.

Keep showing up to vote e just voted on school and library budgets — and the trustees to manage them — but our work isn’t over. Not

yet.

All of us need to get out and vote again in just a few weeks, in the primary election on June 25. And some of will also have an earlier vote as well, on June 18, for political offices in our own communities.

Yes, that’s a lot of voting. But it’s the very essence of democracy, and what helps make our country so amazing.

Voting is often described as a cornerstone of democracy, a fundamental right that empowers all of us to shape our government and its policies. While presidential elections draw significant attention, local and primary elections frequently suffer from lower voter turnout.

Many people question the importance of these smaller-scale elections — especially if the outcome seems predetermined. But voting in local and primary elections is crucial for a number of reasons, and every vote truly does matter.

Local elections directly affect our daily lives in ways that national elections do not. They determine who will make decisions about schools, public safety infrastructure and local taxes.

By participating in these local elections, we have a direct hand in shaping our neighborhoods, and ensuring that their specific needs and concerns are addressed.

Primaries — like the ones involving Assembly and State Senate seats on June 25 — are another critical juncture of the democratic process. They determine which candidates will appear on the ballot in the general election, effectively shaping the choices available to voters.

The primary is often the most competitive phase of an election, particularly in areas where one political party dominates. Yet by voting in primaries, we can influence the selection of candidates who best represent our views and values.

This is especially important when considering the diversity of opinions within a political party, whether you’re Republican or Democrat. A broad spectrum of candidates can lead to more nuanced and representative governance.

A common misperception is that an individual vote doesn’t matter, particularly if the outcome seems predictable.

History, however, is replete with examples of elections that were decided by a handful of votes. Local and primary elections often have much lower turn-

out than national elections, meaning that each vote carries more weight.

Close races can — and do — happen, and a few votes can tip the balance. At the same time, higher voter participation can lend greater legitimacy to the elected officials and the democratic process itself, fostering a more engaged and responsive government.

And, if nothing else, these local elections set the stage for future national leaders. Look at U.S. Rep. Anthony D’Esposito. The former New York Police Department detective and volunteer firefighter was first elected to the Hempstead town council in 2016. Now D’Esposito is helping to make decisions not just for parts of Nassau County, but the entire country.

Congressman Tom Suozzi is another product of local elections. He was elected mayor of Glen Cove in 1993, and moved on to become the Nassau County executive in 2001. He went to Congress in 2016, left in 2022 for a gubernatorial run, and then returned this year to replace his disgraced successor, George Santos.

Voting in local and primary elections is essential. Even if the outcome seems certain, showing up to vote is a powerful statement of engagement and commitment to the democratic process.

Letters The debates will answer questions To the Editor: On Feb. 5, Merrick Garland, the U.S. attorney general, received Special Counsel Robert Hur’s report and conclusions following his interviews with President Biden about the classified documents found at Biden’s home in Delaware and other locations.

Hur concluded there was insufficient evidence to justify charging the president with criminal misconduct. The House Oversight Committee, chaired by Kentucky Republican Congressman James Comer, requested and received from the Justice Department the 250-page transcript of the two interviews, which extended over a five-hour period.

On March 12, the House Judiciary Committee — chaired

by Ohio Republican Congressman Jim Jordan — held a public hearing in which members of the committee questioned Hur about the interviews and his conclusion. At no point during the hearing did Hur, armed with a copy of the transcript, state that it was incomplete or inaccurate in any way.

Nevertheless, in May, Comer — whose months-long efforts to come up with crimes and misdemeanors sufficient to impeach the president have come to naught — demanded that the Justice Department give the committee the audiotapes of the interview, ostensibly to confirm that the transcript did not leave anything out or was inaccurate.

Citing executive privilege, the White House has refused to comply with Comer’s request.

On May 16, the Republican members of the Oversight and Judiciary committees voted to hold Garland in contempt of Congress for failing to hand over the audiotapes. That same day, Comer sent out an email seeking donations from his con-

stituents and others in which he claimed that Biden and his advisers were “terrified that I, James Comer, will release the recordings, forcing the media and the Democrats to answer for the dismal decline of Biden’s mental state.”

Obviously, since the transcript is complete, the only reason that Comer and his fellow Republicans want the audiotapes is to use edited parts of

them in ads, in attempts to prove Biden’s diminishing mental competence.

Perhaps the first televised presidential debate between Biden and former president Donald Trump, scheduled to take place on June 27, will reveal to some degree the mental competence of both candidates.

MIRIAM LEVINE HELBOK Bronx

opinions

n the early hours of May 15, an unsettling event transpired in New York City. Rothschild TLV, a kosher restaurant on Manhattan’s Lexington Avenue, was targeted by vandals.

The incident came on the heels of antiIsrael protests, casting a grim light on the surge of antisemitism that has beset the city. The restaurant’s chef, Guy Kairi, recounted how passersby hurled vitriolic comments, linking their hate speech to the state of Palestine. Such remarks reflect ari an alarming rise in hostility Brown toward the Jewish community.

This act of vandalism was more than just a broken window; it was a stark reminder of darker times. Broken glass has a poignant meaning for the Jewish people, evoking memories of Kristallnacht, the Night of Broken Glass, in 1938. Nazis terrorized Jewish-owned businesses, synagogues and homes in Germany, marking a significant escalation in the

persecution of Jews. What happened at Rothschild TLV was a chilling echo of those atrocities, reminding us that hatred, if left unchecked, can escalate into widespread violence.

The parallels to Kristallnacht are not drawn lightly. On Nov. 9 and 10, 1938, the Nazis orchestrated a series of pogroms under the guise of spontaneous public outrage. This coordinated attack on Jewish lives and property marked the beginning of a more intense phase of the Holocaust. The violence seen on Kristallnacht was a precursor to the horrors that followed, because it emboldened Nazi officials to pursue even more aggressive anti-Jewish policies. Today, we must be vigilant to ensure that history does not repeat itself.

The echoes of the past are reverberating in our present. The attack on Rothschild TLV was not an isolated incident, but rather part of a worrying trend of increasing antisemitic and anti-American acts in our city and, for that matter, in our country. Let’s remember the Summer of Rage in 2020,

t

he seeming normalization of antisemitic incidents is what’s so disconcerting.

Letters Let’s put aside the ignorance To the Editor: Why does ignorance about the history of Palestine and Israel still persist? Palestine was an ancient land, named by the Romans, and was home to the Jews for thousands of years. The indigenous Palestinians were the Jews.

In 1923, the British decreed that 70 percent of the Palestine Mandate — which they won by defeating the Ottoman Empire in World War I — should become an Arab state, and named it Transjordan, later shortened to Jordan.

In World War II, the Nazis — who were supported by the Arabs of Palestine (the Mufti of Jerusalem spent the war years in Germany as Hitler’s guest) — were defeated. Then, after much deliberation, the United Nations decided to divide what was left of the land of the Palestine Mandate.

The Jews of Palestine were offered roughly half of what was left of the mandate territory (perhaps 10 percent of the original land) in order to establish their own state. And the Arabs were offered the other part. The population settlements were considered.

In 1948, the Jews created Israel. The Palestinian Arabs did not create a state, and instead started a war against Israel, the first of many — and they lost all of

when looting of our Democratic-run cities was the norm, sometimes encouraged, and for the most part not prosecuted.

Since the Oct. 7 attack on Israel by Hamas, there has been a noticeable uptick in antisemitic and anti“establishment” incidents in cities across the country. These acts of hate, whether they manifest as vandalism, hate speech or physical violence, threaten the fabric of our diverse communities.

What is most disconcerting is the seeming normalization of such acts.

The New York City Police Department’s initial lack of information about the incident at Rothschild TLV underscores a broader problem: Antisemitic acts are becoming so frequent that they risk becoming part of the city’s backdrop.

It is imperative that we address this rising tide of antisemitism head-on.

The Jewish community’s response to the attack on Rothschild TLV has been one of resilience and solidarity. Celebrations of Israeli Independence Day on May 14 were marked with even more

them.

According to international law, all territory lost by the aggressors in a war that they started belongs to the defenders. The Israelis should own Gaza and the West Bank. They don’t want it. They just want to be left alone, in peace, having absorbed more Jews who were forced to leave Muslim lands than the total number of Arabs who left Palestine/Israel during the wars that the Arabs started.

The Jordanians controlled the Palestinian part of the land for 19 years, but in all that time, the Palestinian Arabs never created a state. They had several chances to do so, but each time they refused.

Now they are chanting, “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free.”

Most of the protesters now don’t know the name of the river or the sea, but their stated goal is to destroy Israel, and create yet another Arab state, without any Jews, as they declared in their newly proposed charter.

To say this is justice is ludicrous!

The Palestinian Arabs have exported their “intifada” to the world. They rely on people’s ignorance of their history to justify their absurd grievances. They have created no viable companies or societies on their own.

The United Nations and Israel have paid for their housing, food and living expenses. The Arabs maintain “refugee camps” 75 years after they lost the war they began, instead of creating peaceful societies. They are the only people, in the

fervor, with music and festivities filling the streets, signaling that fear will not silence the Jewish voice.

But resilience alone is not enough.

We need actionable steps from our city’s leaders to combat this hate, and that begins with ending cashless bail and replacing the Soros-bought district attorneys.

New York City must stand united against antisemitism in all its forms.

We must ensure that our law enforcement agencies have the resources, the training and the public and judicial backup necessary to identify and respond to hate crimes effectively. And we must promote educational initiatives that foster understanding and tolerance among our diverse populations, and that begins with the immediate removal of educators who teach and encourage this hate.

The echoes of the past are indeed haunting, but they also offer us a chance to reaffirm our commitment to a future of peace, tolerance and mutual respect. As I am often heard saying, “This is how it all began. We must ensure it never happens again, and if it does, it will be punished.”
