Zohran Mamdani, a 33 -year -old democratic socialist, ensured a victory in a democratic primary mayor in New York. Mamdani, known for his open support of Palestinian rights and criticism of Israeli politicians, has built his campaign around the themes of availability, inclusivity and transformation visions for the city.
Although critics often described on left-wing and anti-Israel, he openly dealt with the question of Palestine at a time when many politicians avoided this topic.

In the old video circulating on social media, Zohran Mamdani shows that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu should be arrested according to Fox News report if he visits New York City.
During an interview with the former MSNBC host Mehdi Hasan, Zohran Mamdani was asked for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in connection with the arrest of the International Criminal Court for alleged war crimes in the Israel-Gaza conflict. When Hasan emphasized it, Mamdani replied, “It’s time to get off and clarify what we are willing to do to show off the leadership that is painfully missing in the federal administration.”

Later, in the primary debate organized by NBC 4 NY and Politico, Mamdani confirmed his belief that Israel had the right to exist. When the interviewer followed and asked, “As a Jewish state?”, Mamdani replied, “As a state with the same rights.”
His open support for the Palestinians and his accusation that Israel is committing “genocides”, he also made him a visible goal for Donald Trump. He constantly raised a clear border between antirationism and anti -Semitism and stressed that anti -Semitism had no room in New York.
Mamdani, who currently works as a state meeting from New York from Queens, pointed out bold political proposals such as renting for many inhabitants, free public bus service and universal childcare. In a city where a three bedrooms can easily stand $ 6,000 a month, its platform strongly resonated with voters.
