"New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani on Sunday again declined to condemn the phrase “globalize the intifada” but emphasized he would be a mayor “that protects Jewish New Yorkers” if elected in November."

"“I’ve heard from many Jewish New Yorkers who have shared their concerns with me, especially in light of the horrific attacks that we saw in Washington, D.C. and in Boulder, Colorado, about this moment of antisemitism in our country and in our city,” Mamdani told Welker. “And I’ve heard those fears, and I’ve had those conversations.”"

What kinda bullshit article about something NOT said.

It’s like the newsroom is run by supporters of Israel’s genocide campaign.

I want to see the candidates also grilled on whether they condemn the Israeli government for the genocide in Gaza. Why isn't that one being asked? (rhetorical - we all know why.)
