"I believe Zohran Mamdani poses a danger to the security of the New York Jewish community, Rabbi Cosgrove said. Mamdani's refusal to condemn insightful slogans like globalize the intifada,' his denial of Israel's legitmacy as a Jewish state, his calls to arrest Israel's prime minister should he enter New York, and his thrice-repeated accusation of genocide in Thursday's debate. For these and so many other statements past, present, and unrepentant, he is a danger to the Jewish body politic of New York City."
"I would say to the rabbi, you have to go out there and talk with some of the Jews in New York, Jones said. Have you seen the polling that's supporting Mamdani within the Jewish community? It is shocking to me. I can't fight for you harder than you fight for yourself. He wants to eliminate your entire community. Doesn't even believe in a Jewish state. Yet, he still has a lot of support within the community."
Accusations emerged that Zohran Mamdani poses a threat to New York City's Jewish community. Rabbi Elliot Cosgrove cited Mamdani's refusal to condemn slogans such as 'globalize the intifada,' denial of Israel's legitimacy as a Jewish state, calls to arrest Israel's prime minister if he visits New York, and repeated accusations of genocide as reasons for concern. A photo showing Mamdani with imam Siraj Wahhaj, who has been accused of involvement in the 1993 World Trade Center bombing, was highlighted. Polling reportedly shows surprising support for Mamdani among some Jewish voters. Curtis Sliwa's potential withdrawal could alter mayoral race dynamics for Andrew Cuomo.
