The New York Times has a long history of disdain for Jews. It goes back to the 1940s, when it famously buried coverage of the Holocaust. And it has continued in more recent decades, whitewashing the 1991 pogrom in Crown Heights, publishing clearly antisemitic cartoons, and breaching basic journalistic integrity to promote an incomplete narrative about Hasidic yeshivas. Why this is the case can be debated. That this is the case is clear.
The story gets worse. The Jewish News Syndicate reported that the accusations did not arise because of studies or evidence. Rather, they originated with a small group called Rise Up Ocean County — which has been banned on Facebook for its offensive posts and described as “racist and antisemitic" by Gov. Phil Murphy .
However, the same WHO document also says that “in a well-managed cemetery with suitable soil conditions and drainage arrangements, the risk is probably slight.” A more recent report found that “pathogens from cemeteries were unlikely to travel far if graves were dug at ‘an appropriate depth.
It seems that a few rabidly anti-Haredi groups and people made up lies about the Jewish community in this town and then convinced some portion of the non-Haredi population that this presents a grave threat to their health and safety. In other words, this is a classic antisemitic conspiracy theory. This is not said lightly, as emotionally fraught phrases such as"antisemitism" have become relatively overused in recent years in a way that waters down the term.
