In recent weeks, Mayor Zohran Mamdani has visited firehouses around New York City as part of an effort to direct the public’s attention toward the victims, and away from himself.
Three days before the 25th anniversary of Sept. 11, conservative politicians stood with victims’ relatives on the steps of City Hall to repeat their demand that Mayor Zohran Mamdani not participate in the formal ceremony on Friday memorializing the tragedy.
But in truth, Mr. Mamdani has been commemorating the anniversary for weeks.
He met with firefighters at firehouses that suffered grave losses on that day, including Ladder 118 in Brooklyn and Engine 24 and Ladder 5 in SoHo. He went to Bellevue Hospital to talk with survivors of the attacks, families of victims, and patients suffering ongoing health complications related to the day.
Last week, he issued executive orders formally honoring victims and their families and empowering city agencies to better respond to sudden emergencies. On Tuesday, he released a trove of documents about the air quality near ground zero in the months after the attacks.
And as the commemoration ceremony began on Friday, Mr. Mamdani took his place alongside Gov. Kathy Hochul; her husband, William Hochul; Gov. Mikie Sherrill of New Jersey; and former Gov. George E. Pataki of New York, who had called on the mayor to skip the ceremony. They listened solemnly as family members read the names of nearly 3,000 loved ones who died in the attacks in New York, at the Pentagon and in a field in Shanksville, Pa.
Before the ceremony began, Mr. Mamdani shook hands with Rudolph W. Giuliani, the former mayor who has been critical of Mr. Mamdani and said that his presence at the memorial service “offends him.” Mr. Giuliani...

Everything I need to know about Islam I learned 25 years ago today
What, exactly, is Islamophobia?
So he’s the courageous victim?
The Slimes reaches for new lows! Truly disgusting!
What a great guy.
How focused was Mamdani as he and AOC laughed and giggled as the names were read?
“Focusing on taquia, thr new York times sinks to a new low even for them, and paints an avowed jew hating, America hating Muslim Marxist as the good guy by claiming he gives a crap about the victims of 9/11, when in reality he likely only cares about the Muslims who hijacked the planes and also died that day!.”
Disgusting PR piece by the NYT. Just reprehensible.
We all did.
It’s not a phobia.
Oh, pulleeze! Poor Madmoney! He’s practically a saint! All he wants to do is commemorate the victims of 9/11!😭 The NYT has outdone itself this time.
Islamonausea. Fatigue.
Evil genius. Deflect attention from Islams responsibility for 9/11/01 and direct it to the officials who withheld information about health conditions around ground zero which was an open secret. The release of the 170,000 report will keep folks off his back.
I imagine jihadis are celebrating the additional suffering and deaths of the infidel from 9/11
I think you mean “Islamomisia.”
