Keir Starmer has gone — but we will never forget the role his government played in the greatest crime of our time.
Today, I re-presented my Bill for an independent inquiry into Britain’s complicity in genocide.
Reporter: Some members of the Jewish community, including Democratic Congressman Josh Gottheimer, were alarmed by the language you used at the rally last week, calling AIPAC monsters who move dark money.
Mamdani: I want to be very clear. We’re talking about a status quo where children are being killed on a daily basis. More than 1,000 Palestinians have been killed by the Israeli military since the so-called ceasefire.
Even an Al Jazeera journalist, Ahmed Wishah, was killed this past Saturday by an Israeli strike. And when I am speaking about AIPAC, I’m speaking about an organization that has been supportive of the status quo, that has fought any attempt to actually deliver safety to people not just in Palestine but, frankly, throughout much of the region.
And it is a status quo of immorality. It is one that I will not accept. And when it comes to the way in which they defend the status quo, oftentimes they defend it through direct contributions, as we are seeing right now in New York 13.
Oftentimes they also support the status quo through dark money, by funneling money that would have previously come directly from AIPAC through other organizations whose contributors’ identities are only made clear after an election.
And I think it is important that when we ask ourselves how such death and destruction is happening overseas, we also name those who allow it to take place.
This is not a normal statement from a normal cabinet member of a major nation.
This statement from Israeli National Security Minister Ben-Gvir is the statement of a war criminal.
The racist, extremist Israeli government does not deserve one nickel of U.S. support.
Just saw a video of a kid in Gaza with a hole in their head that was even more disturbing than the dozen other times I’ve seen that since 10/7. She had a softball sized hole in her head and a Mickey Mouse shirt on.
If anything we are too nice to people who support Israel
Did you guys know that the judges that issued international arrest warrants for Netanyahu were sanctioned by the United States and as a result are completely unable to access their bank accounts or do any banking?
But don’t you dare bring it up you raging antisemite.
