Miranda Devine: NYC needs a mayor who has our backs — not Zohran Mamdani, who sides with terror and crime

He didn’t quite order flags at One World Trade Center to be flown at half-staff to mourn Iran’s ayatollah, as the Babylon Bee predicted, but our Islamic Marxist mayor, Zohran Mamdani, did issue a statement taking Iran’s side against the US’ “illegal war of aggression.”

“Americans do not want this,” he posted on social media.

He must be mad that President Trump didn’t give him a heads-up on the Iran attack during their bro-mantic visit in the Oval Office Friday. As if.

Like his fellow radical Dems — Kamala Harris, Gavin Newsom and AOC — Mamdani failed to read the room.

Iranians in New York celebrating the Ayatollah Ali Khamenei’s demise were quick to flame the newbie pol on social media in response to his tone-deaf tweet.

“I don’t feel safe in New York listening to someone like you, Mamdani, who sympathizes with the regime that killed more than 30,000 unarmed Iranians in less than 24 hours,” responded Iranian-American journalist Masih Alinejad, who has been targeted for assassination by Iranian hitmen for her vocal criticism of the despotic regime.

“You stayed quiet when we have faced massacre, when Islamic Republic assassins were sent here in New York to kill us,” she posted on X. “Stay quiet now!”

Mamdani also claimed to be taking extra steps to ensure the safety of New Yorkers in the wake of Operation Epic Fury, as concern grows over the potential for retaliatory terrorist attacks.

Former FBI Deputy Director Chris Swecker has warned of the risk of Iranian terrorist “sleeper cell” members who sneaked across President Joe Biden’s border or “lone wolf” Muslim radicals sympathetic to the regime.

After four years NYC will be unrecognizable, and not in a good way.

If only there were some method of government where the common people could state what they want - and get it good and hard.

Mamdani is just begging to have another 9/11. I doubt there will be as much sympathy the next go around.

That’s a good thing. It’s irredeemable.

Once the financial sector collapses, it will go the way of Detroit.

Mamdani doesn’t care ... and New Yorkers are stuck with him. But yes I agree with everything Miranda says here.
