Mayor Zohran Mamdani said his administration was still discussing whether to arrest the Israeli prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, if he comes to New York City as expected for the U.N. General Assembly in September.
“I believe that Prime Minister Netanyahu belongs in The Hague,” Mr. Mamdani told Lulu Garcia-Navarro this week on “The Interview,” a New York Times show, referring to the home of the United Nations’ International Court of Justice.
“He’s a war criminal who has been charged by the International Criminal Court,” Mr. Mamdani added. “And what you will find is that is an opinion that is held by many, purely because of what his actions have wrought over these last many years.”
The mayor said it was unclear to him whether he has the legal authority to order the Police Department, which he oversees, to detain a foreign leader like Mr. Netanyahu. He said he was in “an active conversation” with the city’s Law Department about the matter.
“Whatever the law allows me to do in New York City, that’s what we will do, but we won’t be writing our own laws to that end,” Mr. Mamdani added.
During his mayoral campaign last year, Mr. Mamdani said in an interview with The Times that he would order the Police Department to arrest Mr. Netanyahu, who is pursuing re-election in Israel.
At the time, the mayor said that such an arrest would be honoring a warrant issued by the International Criminal Court over Mr. Netanyahu’s role in the war in Gaza, which Mr. Mamdani and a United Nations commission have called a genocide.

New York thinks it has federal powers.
Mamdani will get arrested first or even droned ,LOL
None of his damn business. Madmoney, himself, should be arrested!
How is it that killing terrorists bothers this guy?
If Mamdani dares have Netanyahu arrested, Mamdani himself should be arrested, for co-opting the powers of the federal government. Mamdani thinks he’s above the law, and should be in prison himself.
He’s not in power to administer international justice. The feds are.
Just who does this jackass think he is? He’s just a mayor. Someone needs to knock this guy down a few pegs.
This man boy commie foreigner needs a padded room.
This smirking socialist satyr is pretty bold and brazen. Getting really full of himself. Maybe the IDF can arrange an Entebbe like raid and have him kidnapped and then put on trial.
What a coincidence. Because I recently ordered Mamdani’s arrest.
As soon as I can get my stupid printer working again, I’ll print the arrest warrant. Then off to New York City I go.

This is what all leftists do. Waste time and resources on irrelevant matters.
This is maybe the last thing New York government should be worrying about.
Can we get other places to plan to arrest Mamdhani?
Talk about delusions of grandeur. Since when does a Mayor have the authority to arrest the head of a foreign country?
“New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani has repeatedly stated that he would instruct the New York Police Department (NYPD) to arrest Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu if he set foot in New York, citing the International Criminal Court (ICC) arrest warrant against him. The ICC wants Netanyahu for alleged war crimes and crimes against humanity committed against Palestinians in the Gaza Strip, including the use of starvation as a method of warfare and the targeting of civilians” What about Gaza’s crimes? This shows clearly how Mandami is antisemetic.
“Neither Israel nor the U.S. is a state party to the Rome Statute, the treaty that established the ICC. Israel initially signed the Statute but later withdrew its signature, while the U.S. has consistently opposed ICC jurisdiction over its nationals and allies” https://timelinedaily.com/world/does-new-york-mayor-zohran-mamdani-have-the-power-to-arrest-israels-pm
“The central legal obstacle: the U.S. is not party to the ICC” (Minor detail)
This man is a lowly mayor he can’t call for anyone to be arrested. That he gets these headlines is shameful on him and rag putting it out on us. He somehow believes he is a king when what he is a tyrant bully dicktor.
ISLAMamdani can have millions of others do other dirty deeds. Is he sending a message? There are a lot of MoFos pre-meditating murder.
Why bother with a trial ?
“Mamdani Says He May Still Order Netanyahu’s Arrest”. So, a muslim doesn’t like a Jew?
Mamdani, beware of Shin Bet, Israeli internal Security and counter-intelligence unit (comparable to our FBI) which also is responsible for the personal security of the Israeli Prime Minister.
They will not look kindly at you if you try to pull off a stupid stunt like this.
UN diplomatic immunity no? Or even just diplomatic immunity in general? I mean they get away with all the NYC parking violations no?
Stupid democrat mooselimb doesn’t have the authority to arrest someone under diplomatic immunity, must less the balls to arrest Bibi.
