The New York Post ran a story on Wednesday, “Whacko accused of plotting attacks on NYC synagogues sobs to mom as he’s sent to prison: ‘Let them down,’” about a man named Matthew Mahrer, who just got sentenced to prison for his role in a plot to attack two New York City synagogues. The Post describes Mahrer as “a Jewish man and the grandson of a Holocaust survivor,” and so he appears to be a deeply confused man. Photographs of the would-be synagogue attacker were revealing: from the looks of his weedy man bun and weak facial hair, he seems to be a typical leftist who believes that the Israelis are the “oppressor” and the “Palestinians” are the poor “indigenous people” of the land.
