....Many Muslims, even those who may not fully agree with Mamdani’s approach on every issue, see his rise as a sign of hope in a city where racism and Islamophobia erupted following the September 11 terrorist attacks....

[hanamizu]

Well, yeah. Kinda like how Nazism was roundly condemned in the United States

---

A much better analogy would be how we felt about all things Japanese after Pearl Harbor.

[butlerweave]

Women should be the most upset with the possibility of Losing All Rights

[TalBlack]

It signifies hope in brain dead urban areas and THAT’S starting to poll out like a maybe.

...a city where racism and Islamophobia erupted following the September 11 terrorist attacks....

OFFS! I remember all those burning mosques and Islamic centers. Oh wait a tic....

> By noon EST on 9/12/01, Mecca should have been a smoking, glassed over radioactive ruin. <

Oh, come on now. You couldn’t expect W to do anything that would upset his BFF (best friend forever).

Notice the hand-holding. What a cute couple. Not.

[Rummyfan]

... a political voice for Muslim Americans....

Ilhan Omar? Rashida Talib? And ... Barack Obama. How much more of a voice do they need?!

[JesusIsLord]

Islam is a terrorist organization. It needs designated as such & all adherents (Muslims) denied entry and for those here - give them choice to denounce their allegience to Islam or leave.

[HYPOCRACY]

Womyn are the ones voting for this POS.

[ReganFan4ever]

I’d would love Adams to drop a Curtis Sliwa to win.

In a three-way race without Adams, Cuomo (31%) is statistically tied with Mamdani (29%) and Sliwa (28 percent).

I also woul love for Sliwa to wear his seminal red cap and jacket in all non-official meetings.Oh yeah!

The Guardian... The newspaper that makes the NY Times look conservative

[Uncle Miltie]

From the River
To the Sea
Israel must be
Juden frie.

Genocide is the program.

[Uncle Miltie]

France is gone.

[Uncle Miltie]

Every time I see a muslim on the streets, I cheerfully greet them.

With:

“Am Israel Chai!”

[Leaning Right]

The UK, France, Belgium, Sweden, etc. All gone. It’s just a matter of time.

I suppose the only thing that could save them now would be a series of military coups. That would be very, very unlikely. But it would make for a great novel.

I might just write such a novel. But I’d do so using a pseudonym. Because for sure the EU would issue an international arrest warrant for the author (the charge - thought crime).

[stanne]

A voice for Muslims. It’s called the constitution. See ya all at yankee stadium for the game.

[Bon of Babble]

...city where racism and Islamophobia erupted following the September 11 terrorist attacks....

If Madman Mamdani is elected, "racism" and "Islamophobia" will be the least of your worries.

[bgill]

Seven years after 9/11 the US elected (?) the Kenyan.

[GMThrust]

There are so many good people out there, reporting on the truth of islam. Robert Spencer is a good place to start, along with Lloyd De Jongh. The truth needs to spread like wildfire!

Yesterday, the family went to Walmart. Wife was in a pair of shorts, showing her beautiful legs. Next to us at the deli was a Muslim family the wife was layered in her Halloween costume and so was their daughter. Her husband was shaking his head at my wife - I guess for being indecent. I grabbed my wife and kissed her. The goat farmer (aka husband) decided to move away from us.

I was thinking lady it is 95 degrees outside. Why you dressed like an Eskimo in a blizzard...

This is ALL I need to know about muzzlimes and their desire to destroy. Remember, I WATCHED the second tower burn and fall. Let's test the combustibility of imams' head rags.
