A spokesperson for Zohran Mamdani, New York City’s mayor-elect, gave a
statement regarding a protest targeting an event at Manhattan's Park
East Synagogue synagogue, suggesting that that hosting Nefesh B’nefesh—a
group devoted to helping U.S. Jews who want to immigrate to Israel work
out the logistics—was inappropriate.

NYC synagogue
Mamdani "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,” read the
statement from him press secretary Dora Pekec.
The NYC mayor-elect has also distanced himself from the slogans chanted
by the pro-intifada protesters, while refraining from condemning the
chants explicitly. “The Mayor-elect has discouraged the language used at
last night’s protest and will continue to do so,” the statement read.

Throughout the demonstration, participants shouted phrases including
“Death to the IDF,” “We don’t want no Zionists here,” and “Resistance,
you make us proud, take another settler out.” At times, the chants were
accompanied by drumbeats and calls to “globalize the intifada.”
One organizer urged protesters to escalate pressure on Jewish
institutions, telling the crowd, “It is our duty to make them think
twice before holding these events. We need to make them scared.”
