To the Editor:
While Dinowitz rightfully calls out recent acts of antisemitism, he does not bother to mention that anti-Muslim hate crimes are also on the rise. In light of the recent shooting of three Palestinian college students in Vermont, Dinowitz’ statements seem all the more insensitive.

To the Editor:
Thank you Jennifer Scarlott for making explicit your support for rape, the murder of peace activists, and the abduction of children. We now know what you stand for; it is not justice, and certainly not peace.

I was driving down my avenue this morning and when I reached the intersection at W. 234 Street & Tibbett Avenue and I saw that a CitiBike rack had been installed at the southwest corner. There were about 20 bays along a solar power panel atop a pole.
