Israel Accuses Mamdani of Throwing 'Antisemitic Gasoline on an Open Fire' with Day 1 Executive Orders



New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani has come under attack for nullifying pro-Israel executive orders signed by former Mayor Eric Adams.​
As noted by the Daily News, one overturned order adopted the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance’s definition of anti-Semitism.​
“On his very first day as @NYCMayor, Mamdani shows his true face: He scraps the IHRA definition of antisemitism and lifts restrictions on boycotting Israel,​

Bishop Robert Barron slams Zohran Mamdani's 'warmth of collectivism' line: ‘For God’s sake’


Bishop Robert Barron, a prominent Catholic leader, slammed socialist New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s inauguration line promoting the "warmth of collectivism," saying, "For God’s sake, spare me."​
During his inaugural address, the newly minted socialist mayor and New York’s first Muslim mayor, declared, "We will replace the frigidity of rugged individualism with the warmth of collectivism."​
The line prompted immediate backlash from many conservatives who expressed alarm at such a phrase being used by the leader of America’s biggest city.​

Criticism of Israel is not "anti-semitic". Neither is active, explicit non-support. Israel is a country. It is not "The Jews."

Also, this is misleading fearmongering. Mamdani didn't only cancel the pro-Israel EOs. He cancelled all of Adams' EOs from the date of his indictment on bribery forward. He also didn't revoke the EO establishing the Mayor's Office antisemitism task force.

Did Mamdani grit his teeth, audibly grunt, pound his chest and then thrust his arm into the air palm-down? Twice? Or is this just a still of him waving? Can you post the video?

How about we compare the video clips of those situations? Oh, doesn't look good for Elon? Never mind then. This is the same type of picture mining that was done after Elons salutes to try and argue that others do it. Except funnily enough, only still pictures were posted and no video. Because they were frames takes from people waving and such and actual context makes the claim ridiculous. This post is ridiculous.

Let's be clear. He is waiving to the crowd.
So was Elon -

Yet - you didn't post the video to prove your point.

His first executive order wasn’t to seize the means of production, make Islamic prayer mandatory, make all kids trans and impose the hijab on all women? So disappointing.

Just so we know who we are speaking of: From Google

  • Refusal to condemn phrases like "Globalize the intifada" — Critics (including the ADL and opponents like Andrew Cuomo) view this as tolerating calls for violence against Jews, given historical associations with the intifadas.
  • Opposition to Israel's existence as a Jewish state — He has stated he would not recognize any state based on "hierarchy on the basis of race or religion," which groups like the American Jewish Committee (AJC) call delegitimization of the world's only Jewish-majority state.
  • Use of terms like "genocide" for Israeli actions — This has drawn criticism for echoing language seen as inflammatory or one-sided.
  • Support for BDS and criticism of exceptionalism toward Israel — He has long backed boycotts and argued for equal application of international law.
On his first day in office (January 1, 2026), Mamdani revoked several executive orders from predecessor Eric Adams (issued amid Adams's federal indictment), including:
  • Adoption of the IHRA definition of antisemitism (which includes examples tying some Israel criticism to antisemitism, like denying Jewish self-determination or claiming Israel's existence is racist).
  • Bans on city agencies boycotting or divesting from Israel (BDS-related).
  • Other Israel-related economic cooperation measures.

Eric Adams was openly corrupt. Emulating him would not be a good thing.

Btw, kudos for using actual links to the sources!

Don't forget forcing kids to learn Arabic numerals.

I have to laugh. OK. I guess I need to prove it. Here are the two videos.


Thanks. Mandami touches lips, slap chest and raises hand in salute

Musk touches chest raises hand in salute and says “my heart goes out to you.

Did they not get the memo? He’s the mayor of New York, not Tel Aviv.

Who is talking about Tel Aviv?

It is the Jewish community of NY speaking of the actions of the Mayor of NY -
