On Tuesday, Mamdani was asked about the phrase “Globalize the Intifada” during an interview on the podcast “The Bulwark.”
“Intifada” literally means “uprising” or “shaking off.” But it is mainly associated with the Second Intifada in the early 2000s, when Palestinian terrorists killed hundreds of Israelis in suicide bombings. “Globalize the Intifada” is a common refrain for protest groups calling for Israel’s destruction and the ostracization of Zionists in the US.
“Ultimately, what I hear in so many is a desperate desire for equality and equal rights in standing up for Palestinian human rights,” Mamdani said. “The very word [Intifada] has been used by the Holocaust Museum when translating the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising into Arabic because it’s a word that means struggle.”
“Exploiting the museum and the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising to sanitize ‘Globalize the Intifada’ is outrageous and especially offensive to survivors,” the museum said
The museum did not immediately respond to a request for comment on whether its Arabic materials do indeed translate “uprising” as “intifada,”
The comparison also implicitly compares Israelis to Nazis, a form of Holocaust inversion that the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance’s working definition of antisemitism defines as antisemitic.

I’m rooting for this guy to become the next Mayor of NYC, in a city full of liberal insane people, nothing would make a better statement of the insanity than to elect one of the most insane people as Mayor.
Then after this guy got finished with destroying the city, a movie could be made entitled, Escape from New York and the main character is Snake Plissken.
Work that way in London. s/s
In the World’s Financial Market the epitome of capitalism, the city elects a communist socialist as Mayor, it would be a perfect contrast.
I see one of this guy’s campaign promises is to establish community grocery stores run by the city to help alleviate food deserts.
If one of these stores actually get open within 24 hours mass looting would take place.
Mamdani is Muslim + liberal.
Total Islamist loon. WHY did we start allowing these maniacs into America????

? STUPID COMMENT. NEVER SUPPORT EVIL. NEVER GIVE EVIL OXYGEN. CRUSH IT AND THIS SCUMBAG SO HIS RELATIVES AND ILK UNDERSTAND THEY WILL ALWAYS BE MET WITH CONTEMPT AND FORCE.
Before getting worked up, look up the definition of the word sarcasm....especially after reading the last sentence of my post about making a movie called Escape from New York and Snake Plissken.
I got the sarcasm. I’m also a bit over caffeinated :)
Why, was "Finish the Holocaust" already taken?
Personally, I think the guy has a real chance of winning, look around at places like LA and Chicago, LA elected a Castro loving communist, Chicago elected someone worse than the previous mayor who was a freak, it would not be out of the question for NYC to elect this communist as mayor.
The so called “reasonable alternative” candidate used to be Governor of NY who killed old people during Covid.
America has been asleep while the last least two generations of our seedpod has been brainwashed and corrupted. So much purging within the institutions is required. Then there are the demographics...
I think that Adams could win as an Independent.
