Mamdani’s failed Netanyahu arrest bid: Letters – Latest News
The Issue: Admitting he can’t arrest Benjamin Netanyahu, Mayor Mamdani calls him a “war criminal.”
Hold the entrance web page; the mayor found that he can’t arrest Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu (“Zoh is all bark, no cuffs for Bibi,” July 22).
He knew full properly that he couldn’t arrest Netanyahu, however wouldn’t drop the discuss till he acquired boxed in by critics. Nothing has been gained from this besides fanning the flames of Jew- and Israeli-hate, and spreading the false declare of genocide.

Mamdani’s silence with regard to Russia, Iran and different violent nations, as in comparison with Israel, displays his selective politics. He ought to follow governing New York City, and keep his disturbing views to himself.

Mamdani, who manufacturers Netanyahu as a “war criminal,” doesn’t acknowledge the historic irony of such a slur. Netanyahu’s older brother was the one Israeli commando killed during the daring 1976 Entebbe raid, which rescued 102 hostages and 12 crew members taken hostage by Palestinian and German terrorists.
Mamdani no doubt has more respect for Uganda’s brutal former dictator Idi Amin, who tried however failed to guard the anti-Israel hijackers, as in comparison with Bibi’s sibling, who sacrificed his life. When Netanyahu speaks to the United Nations, I hope he makes notice of this.

Mamdani doesn’t communicate for me when he says that the prime minister of Israel shouldn’t be welcome in New York City. It is apparent the mayor is attempting to attain factors within the national socialist world.
If he desires to be appalled at crimes, he ought to look to Oct. 7, 2023, and the bloodbath that occurred in Israel. By the way in which, that’s one which his spouse selected to have a good time.
My message to the mayor: Read your job description and keep in your lane.

Given all his flexing of political muscle tissue since turning into mayor, “tough guy” Zohran ought to put these muscle tissue the place his mouth is. He ought to develop into a deputy and take that chance to slap the cuffs on Netanyahu himself. Talk the discuss, stroll the stroll.

The solely factor Netanyahu is guilty of goes after the terrorists who attacked a peace-loving kibbutz, burning infants to death, raping ladies and killing its members.
Miranda Devine is right in accusing Mamdani of eager to make America a communist nation (“Zo & co. dream of a Commie revolt,” July 20).
We have evil factions working and supporting teams just like the DSA who blatantly and overtly need to destroy our nation.
What many politicians don’t appear to know is that if Israel is destroyed, America might be subsequent. That is the DSA’s final agenda.

The mayor cites the rag-tag International Criminal Court, which has no legal standing in America or Israel. He by no means mentions all of the genocidal dictators who go to the United Nations yearly.
Oct. 7 and the Holocaust are definitions of genocide. Vladimir Putin is committing genocide on Ukrainians. The Iranian mullahs not too long ago murdering 1000’s of their own people could also be genocide. Stupid leftist propagandists should study the true which means of the phrase.

My suggestion to the Israeli authorities is to get an Israeli choose to subject an arrest warrant for Mandami, charging him with libel in opposition to Israelis. The Israeli authorities ought to then ask the US Justice Department to honor the request for him to be extradited to Israel to stand trial.
It can be poetic justice seeing the antisemite mayor being led in handcuffs on to an El Al jet heading for Israel.

Again, Mamdani is displaying his ignorance in wanting to seek out a strategy to arrest Netanyahu when he involves New York. That’s like me saying I wish to arrest Mamdani if he ever got here to East Haven as a result of I really feel he wish to destroy the American method of life and my faith.
