Mamdani’s Anti-Israel Meltdown: The Radical Left’s War on Truth and America’s Ally

In yet another stunning display of moral blindness, Democratic mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani turned the New York City mayoral debate into an anti-Israel propaganda session—falsely accusing the Jewish state of committing “genocide” not once, not twice, but three times.

With reckless disregard for fact or history, Mamdani — a self-proclaimed socialist — repeated Hamas talking points on live television, accusing Israel of “genocide” and “apartheid” while refusing to condemn the very terrorists who started the war by butchering innocent Israeli civilians. His rhetoric was not only divisive — it was dangerously dishonest.

Let’s be clear: There is no genocide in Gaza. What Israel has done — what any sovereign nation has the right to do — is defend its people from a barbaric terrorist army that openly declares its mission to wipe Israel off the map. Hamas began the conflict by slaughtering families, burning children alive, and taking hostages — all with genocidal intent. That’s not resistance. That’s evil.

Mamdani’s comments represent the moral rot festering within the modern Democratic Party, a party that once supported Israel as a democratic ally in a sea of tyranny but has now been hijacked by radicals who sympathize with terrorists.

The same voices that cry “genocide” at Israel fall disturbingly silent when it comes to Hamas using human shields, storing weapons in schools, and executing their own people. Mamdani’s narrative isn’t born of compassion — it’s born of ideology. He’s part of the radical left-wing movement that despises Western values, hates America’s Christian heritage, and aligns with those who wish to destroy Judeo-Christian civilization.

Instead of denouncing the Islamist barbarism that triggered this war, Mamdani condemned Benjamin Netanyahu, labeling him as if he were the aggressor. His accusation that former Governor Andrew Cuomo “signed up to be Netanyahu’s defense team” wasn’t just politically cheap — it was morally obscene.

Even military experts have rejected Mamdani’s delusional claims. John Spencer, a respected military strategist, recently reminded the world that Israel’s conduct during the war was the opposite of genocidal — emphasizing that Israelis rejoiced at the return of hostages, not the destruction of Gaza.

In fact, no army in history has gone to greater lengths to protect civilian lives than the Israel Defense Forces. Israel warns civilians before airstrikes. Hamas hides behind them. Yet Mamdani chooses to side with the terrorists.

The irony is staggering: while Mamdani lectures Israel about “human rights,” he supports a terrorist group that throws gay people off buildings, uses child soldiers, and executes dissenters. This is the ideological sickness of the far-left — a perverse inversion of morality that glorifies evil and condemns righteousness.

The terrifying reality is that Mamdani is the frontrunner in this mayoral race. With the Democratic establishment fractured between him, the disgraced Andrew Cuomo, and Republican Curtis Sliwa, Mamdani’s radical base could deliver him the keys to America’s largest city.

And what would that mean for New York?

• A defunded police force, replaced by “mental health professionals.”

• A socialist economy, with government price controls that have failed every time they’ve been tried.

• A foreign policy agenda that demonizes Israel and emboldens anti-Semitic radicals across the city.

Under Mamdani, the “city that never sleeps” would become the city that never stands up — for truth, for safety, or for America’s allies.

Mamdani’s constant use of the word “genocide” isn’t just irresponsible — it’s deliberate propaganda. The goal is to erode support for Israel and normalize the idea that defending oneself against terrorists is a crime.

This is how the left operates: repeat a lie until it becomes accepted truth. They did it with “defund the police,” with “open borders,” and now with “Israel is committing genocide.”

Every time a public figure like Mamdani repeats that lie, Jewish people in America grow less safe. Anti-Semitic incidents skyrocket. Synagogues are attacked. Jewish students are harassed. That’s the true consequence of Mamdani’s rhetoric.

He may not be holding a gun, but his words load the chambers of hatred.

America must draw a line. The time for moral cowardice is over. New Yorkers — and all Americans — must reject leaders who parrot terrorist propaganda and side with those who would destroy Western civilization.

Israel stands as a beacon of democracy, a fortress of Judeo-Christian values, and a bulwark against radical Islamism in the Middle East. To accuse Israel of genocide is to spit on history, to mock the victims of Hamas, and to betray the very principles that keep civilization alive.

Mamdani’s words are not the words of a peacemaker or reformer. They are the words of a radical who views the enemies of the West as heroes and the defenders of freedom as villains.

This mayoral debate wasn’t just about New York — it was a mirror reflecting America’s moral crisis. When a leading Democrat can openly accuse Israel of genocide and still remain the favorite to win, something is deeply broken in our political and cultural landscape.

Zohran Mamdani’s rhetoric is not progress. It’s regression — back to the days when lies ruled, terrorists thrived, and truth was a casualty of politics.

New York deserves better. America deserves better. And the world deserves leaders who understand that standing with Israel is standing with civilization itself.
