Hours after Mayor Eric Adams issued an executive order barring NYC government from discriminating against Israel, Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani told the press that he won’t rule out tossing the measure — but of course he will.
Mamdani is an avowed fan of the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions drive to slam Israel and all its institutions, from businesses to universities.
He’s on record calling for a boycott of Cornell Tech — the graduate center on Roosevelt Island seen as a lynchpin of growing Silicon Alley — because it’s a partnership with the Technion-Israel Institute of Technology, one of the world’s premier tech universities.
In the Legislature, he pushed a bill to strip pro-Israel charities of their tax-exempt status.
And he’s already said he’ll reverse Adams’ order adopting the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance definition of antisemitism as the city’s standard.
Hating Israel has been the biggest constant of his entire adult life, starting in college; it’s a core belief of his mentors, like Linda Sarsour and his dad, too, and of his Democratic Socialist base.
Heck, he’s led chants of “BDS, BDS.”
He may see no reason to announce he’ll nix the anti-BDS order; but he’s sure to, perhaps waiting for the right Friday night to dump the news when it’ll draw the least attention.
When he looks at Israel, he doesn’t see a democracy that protects the rights of its Arab citizens better than any other country in the region; like his whole movement, he only sees a proud Jewish state that refuses to flinch in the face of fevered, fantastical name-calling about “genocide” and “apartheid.”
He’s sticking to his ridiculous guns about arresting Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, too.
Zohran Mamdani would far sooner declare himself a fervent capitalist than retreat an inch from his opposition to Israel.
And anyone who thinks otherwise is only fooling themselves.
