Especially Putin, an actual war criminal. Would Mamdani give such a self-serious lecture about how the mayor of New York City would love to arrest him, but cannot? Or is this an honor only bestowed on Israel, or on Jews?

[Jonathan Greenblatt @JGreenblattADL]

This isn’t just political theater. It’s a dangerous dereliction of duty.

Who appointed Zohran Mamdani prosecutor, judge and jury? Wasn’t he elected mayor of New York City?

The groceries aren’t cheaper. Inflation hasn’t eased. The streets aren’t safer.

Yet he remains relentlessly obsessed with the world’s only Jewish state—even as Jewish New Yorkers face record levels of antisemitism and the city confronts urgent problems that demand his attention.

Remember that, just days after the October 7 massacre—the deadliest day for Jews since the Holocaust—he was already in the streets accusing Israel of “imminent genocide.” Before the victims were even buried, he had chosen his villain.

That obsession reveals two things: First, an antisemitic worldview that doesn’t merely distort his judgment—it drives it. Second, the play-acting instincts of a perpetual student activist who’s never actually run anything, learning on the job at our expense.

Mayor Mamdani, this isn’t the Model UN.
It’s New York City.
Do your job.

Shapiro signing bombs was an event with Zelensky about fighting Russia—it had nothing to do with Israel.

[Simon Wiesenthal Center @simonwiesenthal]

Mayor Mamdani did not simply express a personal political opinion. He used the authority, symbolism, and credibility of the mayor’s office to issue what amounted to an official public address declaring that the democratically elected leader of the world’s only Jewish state is a ‘war criminal’ who is ‘not welcome in New York City.’ That is a profound misuse of the office entrusted to him by all New Yorkers.

After acknowledging that New York City has no independent legal authority to execute the International Criminal Court’s arrest warrant, the mayor nevertheless chose to transform that legal reality into a televised political spectacle. Respect for the separation of powers and the legal limits of public office is a bedrock of American democracy; those limits should not be treated as an inconvenience to be exploited for political theater.

Perhaps most telling was what the mayor chose to leave out. His address made no mention of Hamas or the October 7 massacre of innocent civilians. Instead, he delivered a sweeping moral indictment of Israel while erasing the terrorist atrocities that ignited this war. Appeals to universal humanity and justice ring hollow when they exclude the victims whose suffering does not fit a preferred political narrative.

This is no longer simply about Prime Minister Netanyahu. It reflects a broader pattern in which Mayor Mamdani repeatedly singles out Israel while using the prestige of his office to legitimize rhetoric that further isolates the Jewish state and deepens division here at home. At a time when Jewish New Yorkers are experiencing alarming levels of antisemitism, harassment and intimidation, they deserve a mayor who refrains from fomenting hatred against the world’s only Jewish country while maintaining the fiction that this is not anti-Jewish.

Throughout his campaign, Mayor Mamdani repeatedly insisted that his responsibility as mayor would be to focus on New York City and the issues affecting New Yorkers. New Yorkers elected him to make their neighborhoods safer, combat hate and unite a diverse city, not to conduct foreign policy or transform City Hall into a stage for ideological declarations about world leaders.

New Yorkers elected a mayor, not a prosecutor of foreign leaders. Mayor Mamdani should spend less time trying to demonize only one leader and one country from City Hall and more time protecting the New Yorkers he was elected to serve.

telling your brain "i know you don't wanna do the thing and it'll be very uncomfortable for you at first but you can do it buddy. it'll be fine" is actually surprisingly effective. it sounds too simple but that fuckass organ WILL listen to you if you treat it with kindness

The older I get, the more I understand why people disappear into gardening baking, reading, and long walks. Not because life got boring. Because peace became valuable.

I don’t want to "download the app" to pay for parking. I don’t want to "create an account" to see a menu. I don’t want to "provide feedback" on a 30-second interaction. I just want to exist in the physical world without a digital leash.

Someday, in a quiet, dark room, possibly lying awake with his thoughts late at night, Vance's mind will wonder back to this moment, and an uncomfortable thought will occur: What if, he will wonder, just maybe, it was actually Iranian belligerence and extremist ideology that blew up his negotiations. And not, you know, those nefarious Je...uh, that is to say, Israelis.

And If someone starts a hard conversation with you, it’s often a sign they care enough to keep you in their life. Not that they hate you.
