New in PJ Media:
Antisemitism is skyrocketing, but never fear: a dynamic young politician has a wide-ranging new plan to confront it head-on and eradicate this scourge once and for all. This courageous young warrior for truth and justice is named… Zohran Mamdani.
Yeah, really. AP reported Tuesday that New York City’s Marxist Muslim mayor, hitherto one of the most energetic and relentless purveyors of the hatred of Israel that has fueled antisemitism, “debuted a sweeping plan Tuesday to combat antisemitism and hate crimes against Jewish people in New York City, moving to assuage lingering concerns from critics who see his steadfast denunciations of Israel as antisemitic.”
Mamdani’s plan “includes increased security funding for synagogues, an increased focus on folding Jewish history into public school education, and a pledge to highlight important Jewish cultural and religious sites in the mayor’s day-to-day governance of the city.” Hizzoner said that “the overarching goal of the initiative was to ‘confront the scourge of antisemitism now and in the future,’ noting that Jewish people make up only 12% of the city’s population but are the victims of around half the city’s reported hate crimes. ‘This is not only unacceptable, it’s something we all have an obligation to change. And City Hall will lead the way.’”
The question for Mamdani is this: is it unacceptable that Jews are “only 12% of the city’s population but are the victims of around half the city’s reported hate crimes” because they should be the victims of fewer hate crimes, or more?
Of course, Mamdani would be enraged at anyone who asked him that question. After all, he just said that he wants to “confront the scourge of antisemitism now and in the future.” Still, it can’t be forgotten that he has been one of the chief drivers of that scourge. The AP, which is itself decidedly anti-Israel, notes Mamdani “has long been a vocal supporter of Palestinian civil rights and has accused the Israeli government of committing a genocide in Gaza.”
This is skillfully concealed bias, but it’s still bias nonetheless. To say that Mamdani is “a vocal supporter of Palestinian civil rights” is to cast him as a kind of Muslim Martin Luther King, fighting for the rights of a people who face harassment and discrimination. In reality, Israel does not deny Muslim Arabs any civil rights, and what AP and Mamdani consider to be denials of civil rights are actually security measures that are necessary in the face of the bloodthirsty Palestinian jihad.
And there is not and has been no genocide in Gaza, so Mamdani’s repeated insistence to the contrary is simply incitement to hatred of Israel and Jews, and his critics are exactly right when they say, as AP puts it, that “his heated rhetoric around the conflict has made Jewish people feel unsafe in the city.”
There is more. Read the rest here.

Another Muslim deceiver like the spiritual seed of Allah, a Serpent(Genesis 3:15) against Jews, Christians, and all Non-Muslims with Muslim deceit, discrimination, segregation, violence, and terrorism as taught in Islamic Law and in Islam’s Qur’an(Qur’an 9:5, 29, 41, 111; 49:15, etc.). Genocidal Allah in Qur’an 8:39 commands, “And engage in war with them[Non-Muslims] until there will not be sedition and the religion will be completely to Allah…” Ultimately, Allah desires to fill hell with Non-Muslims(Qur’an 7:18; 11:119; 32:13; 98:6, etc.).
Public Funding is a privilege that should NOT BE granted to organizations that are against the US Constitution or Western Constitutions. Totalitarian Islam and its Muslim Organizations including Muslim Schools and Mosques are against the US Constitution due to Muslim funding, teaching, and promoting discrimination, segregation, hatred, rape, violence, totalitarianism, and terrorism against Non-Muslims to make Islamic Law supreme. Islam’s Muslims are murderous, Totalitarian Terrorists of Allah operating as a Criminal-Terrorist-Gang Enterprise under Islamic Law to ultimately conquer the enemies of Allah, the Non-Muslims, with Islamic Law DBA Islam(Qur’an 8:60; 9:5, 29, 111; 49:15, etc.).
