Guess Who Mamdani Blamed for Antisemitic Protest Outside NYC Synagogue
(and Why)
Amy Curtis
5–6 minutes
Wednesday night, mobs of anti-Israel, pro-Palestine protesters descended
on Park East Synagogue in New York. The synagogue was hosting an event
by Nefesh B'nefesh, an organization that helps Jews immigrate to Israel.
The protesters blocked Jews from entering the building and terrorized
people inside, including 93-year-old Rabbi Arthur Schneier, a Holocaust
survivor.
“It is our duty to make them think twice before holding these events,”
one protest leader told the crowd. Another said, “We need to make them
scared. We need to make them scared. We need to make them scared," while
the crowd chanted, "From New York to Gaza, globalize the intifada."
In an unsurprising development, Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani is blaming
the Jews, the synagogue, and Nefesh B'Nefesh.
Why? Because he claims the event "violated international law."

event at NYC synagogue is ‘violation of international law’"
"Mamdani's statement comes as he distanced himself from anti-Israel
protesters who demonstrated outside the synagogue
event"https://t.co/O4MzY0rwHh

Here's more:
Zohran Mamdani, the mayor-elect of New York City, distanced himself
from a widely criticized demonstration outside a prominent synagogue in
Manhattan on Wednesday night, where anti-Israel protesters were heard
chanting “Death to the IDF” and “Globalize the intifada,” among other
slogans, even as he suggested that the event, which provided information
on immigrating to Israel, violated international law.
“The mayor-elect has discouraged the language used at last night’s
protest and will continue to do so,” a spokesperson for Mamdani, Dora
Pekec, said in a statement to Jewish Insider on Thursday. “He believes
every New Yorker should be free to enter a house of worship without
intimidation, and that these sacred spaces should not be used to promote
activities in violation of international law.”
Mamdani made the claim earlier this week that New York is "a city of
international law" and he'd use that as grounds to arrest Israeli Prime
Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, should the head of the Jewish state come to
the Big Apple. Now it seems he's going to use the same mentality against
people and organizations who are simply enjoying their First Amendment
rights.
We saw this coming.
When an elected official claims synagogues need to be checked for
“violating international law,” it confirms exactly what we feared.

"In NYC — the largest Jewish community outside Israel — singling out
Jewish houses of worship is how double standards start. And once they
start, they spread," Goldsheft wrote. "This is the moment our allies
need to show up. If we don’t push back now, this rhetoric becomes the
norm. We can’t let that happen — not here, not ever."
Hen Mazzig of the Tel Aviv Institute slammed Mamdani for this move.
SHOCKING: NYC Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani condemned the Jewish
community being harassed at their synagogue, instead of Free Palestine
for protesting outside of it.

B’Nefesh and falsely claimed Jewish immigration to…

"He decried the congregation for meeting to learn about Nefesh B’Nefesh
and falsely claimed Jewish immigration to Israel is 'in violation of
international law,' and they misused a 'sacred space,'" Mazzig wrote.
Mazzig continued, "Clearly he does not know anything about
'international law.' There is nothing wrong with Jews immigrating to
their homeland, let alone gathering in community while dozens of hateful
protestors stand outside their doors hurling antisemitic insults and
calling for violence against them."
"Mamdani has NO right to dictate how Jews utilize our own community
spaces — or condemn Jews for wanting to leave New York while he lets
antisemitism run rampant through the city," Mazzig added. "If he wants
Jews to take him seriously as mayor, he can start by seriously
condemning the protestors, not the Jews simply trying to live in this
hostile city."
Editor’s Note: Zohran Mamdani, an avowed Democratic Socialist, will be
the next mayor of New York City.
