Rising outrage by families of 9/11 victims and FBI agents involved in the original World Trade Center bombing investigation, along with attacks from political rivals and questions from the one or two media outlets not in the tank for his campaign, forced Zohran Mamdani to answer why he had campaigned at the Al-Taqwa Mosque, which had been under NYPD surveillance, and tweeted a photo of himself with Imam Siraj Wahhaj, an unindicted coconspirator in the World Trade Center bombing. And Mamdani’s response was accusing critics of ‘Islamophobia’. “The same imam met with Mayor Bloomberg, met with Mayor De Blasio, campaigned...

Mamdani appears smiling, arm-in-arm with unindicted ‘93 WTC bombing co-conspirator and terrorist apologist Mayoral frontrunner Zohran Mamdani happily campaigned with a popular Brooklyn Imam who is an unindicted co-conspirator in the 1993 World Trade Center bombing — and whose son once ran a terrorist camp for kids. The Democratic nominee appears in a photo posted to X laughing and grinning, standing arm-in-arm with Imam Siraj Wahhaj and City Councilmember Yusef Salaam at Wahhaj’s Bed-Stuy mosque to celebrate the weekly Muslim prayer. “Today at Masjid At-Taqwa, I had the pleasure of meeting with Imam Siraj Wahhaj, one of the nation’s foremost...

In the cesspool of New York City politics, where ambition often trumps integrity, Zohran Mamdani stands out as a particularly insidious figure, a self-proclaimed democratic socialist whose campaign reeks of calculated deception. As the Democratic nominee for mayor in this 2025 election, Mamdani has mastered the art of flip-flopping, dodging, and outright dissimulation, behaviors that echo the Islamic doctrine of taqiyya. For those unfamiliar, taqiyya allows Muslims, particularly in Shia traditions like Mamdani's Twelver background, to conceal their true beliefs under threat. But in Mamdani's case, it's not persecution he's hiding from, it's the electorate's scrutiny. He's weaponizing it to...

Air travel has, in recent years, already gotten far less pleasant than it used to be just a decade or two ago: you’ve got the hassle of TSA lines, tiny seats (unless you want to pay for one of the endless upgrades offered), airport food that costs more than a car payment, and other inconveniences. Still, we do it because it’s the fastest way to travel and we want to see our families and/or go on vacation. But imagine if you were strolling about the concourse and suddenly you heard pro-Hamas messages being blasted over the PA system? That’s exactly...

Democratic National Committee Chair Ken Martin on Friday encouraged New Yorkers to vote for Zohran Mamdani, the Democratic nominee in the New York City mayoral race, just weeks ahead of Election Day. "He’s running to make NYC more affordable for everyone and has captured the nation’s attention with his incredible campaign," Martin, who was elected by fellow Democrats to his position earlier this year, wrote in a post on X in a thread highlighting downballot Democratic candidates with election coming up soon. "Go vote for Zohran this November!" Asked Saturday if Friday’s tweet was an endorsement of Mamdani from Martin,...

Jews across the UK have been urged to lock their doors and not to congregate in groups as police patrols are stepped up outside synagogues and in areas with large Jewish populations after the Manchester attack. Sir Keir Starmer told the Jewish community that he would do “everything in my power to guarantee you the security you deserve” as he announced additional police officers and assets would be deployed to all Jewish communities. Shabana Mahmood, the home secretary, said that she would “do whatever is required” to keep the Jewish community safe as she visited the site of the attack...

On the heels of the UK recognizing an Islamic terrorist state in Israel, police arrested the third known person for criticising Hamas and released a Muslim man who had gone on a stabbing spree after he saw a Koran being burned. Or as the judge in the case put it, “the holy Koran.” Who is the Koran holy to? The political and judicial systems of the United Kingdom which have effectively enacted Islamic Sharia blasphemy law by selectively prosecuting those who offend Islam. But not those who offend the religious sensibilities of Christians or Jews. Do whatever you like with...

When Americans consider “charity” they picture their contributions providing clothing for the poor or food for the hungry. When they hear the word “missionary" they picture Christians going abroad to save souls. However, these terms mean very different things to the Muslim Brotherhood, an organization that President Trump has twice attempted to label as terrorist. In radical Islamist teaching, zakat (charity) is not simply about helping the poor; it is about advancing Islam. The aim is to expand the ummah -- the worldwide Muslim community -- through dawah (proselytizing). Americans are right to be deeply concerned about what is happening...

Can we all agree yet that accepting “Gazan” refugees is a terrible idea? This is where we are in 2025: Palestinian Arab migrants, living in Sweden, make plans to behead their own daughter and sister, all because she’s willing to assimilate to Western ideals—like getting a normal job, paying her own way, and not being a jihadist. It was just too much for one family, with the woman’s father, mother, brother, and sister all (allegedly) playing a role in the woman’s kidnapping and near-murder(?). From a report by Thomas Brooke at Remix News: On April 30, police in Hallsberg were...

New York City’s suburban housing markets are heating up in anticipation of the upcoming mayoral election on Nov. 4. Zohran Mamdani, a Democratic Socialist, is leading in the polls, and his housing policies have some wealthy residents eyeing the exits to the suburbs. Zach and Heather Harrison, Westchester-based real estate agents representing The Harrison Team at Compass, are already tracking a spike in Manhattan residents reaching out about suburban properties. "We are absolutely seeing a correlation between Zohran Mamdani’s surprise win in the Democratic primary and an uptick in real estate interest in Westchester," Zach and Heather tell Realtor.com®. "Since...

The guidance – which incredibly points out that it has been allowed in Britain since Henry VIII passed a law enabling him to marry Anne Boleyn's cousin Catherine Howard – says that cousin marriage offers benefits such as 'stronger extended family support systems'. The practice, which is common in the British Pakistani community, has been linked to a greater prevalence of disorders such as cystic fibrosis or sickle cell disease. Figures show that up to 20 per cent of the children treated for congenital problems in cities such as Sheffield, Glasgow and Birmingham are of Pakistani descent, compared with 4...

Maher argues the killing of Christians in Nigeria is 'so much more of a genocide attempt than what is going on in Gaza' ‘Real Time’ host Bill Maher said the killing of Christians in Nigeria by Islamist groups is being ignored because ‘the Jews aren't involved.'See the video.

“When I think about the trip today, I wouldn’t do it again – it was so dangerous. What I remember is that many people died, they drowned … there were too many people on that boat.” Anas Modamani, who as a teenager fled Syria’s brutal civil war for the safety of Europe in 2015, is one of many who ended up in Germany, where he still lives and now holds a passport. Sitting in a Syrian cafe in Neukölln, a culturally diverse district of the German capital, Modamani is smiling and well-groomed. He works in IT and in his own...

Göttingen public prosecutor’s office said on Friday that it has detained a 31-year-old man from Iraq on suspicion of pushing a 16-year-old girl onto the train tracks and fatally injuring her. The Iraqi national’s DNA was later found on the deceased girl’s shoulder. Police had interviewed the man shortly after the girl’s tragic death, after which he denied involvement and tested positive for alcohol consumption. According to prosecutors, the suspect had initially come into contact with police in 2022 when he applied for asylum in Germany. However, the request was denied in December of that year and a deportation order...

Hamas-backing Qatar has bankrolled film and stage projects by socialist Zohran Mamdani’s Israel-bashing movie-director mom — and one of its royals is now pushing her son’s mayoral bid, The Post has found. Sheikha Al-Mayassa bint Hamad Al-Thani, sister to the ruling emir, and the state-funded cultural institutions she controls, have supported Mira Nair and her creative projects since at least 2009, even extending a personal invitation to participate in the cultural program the country organized as part of the festivities around hosting the 2022 World Cup. Since mid-June, Sheikha Al-Thani has taken to promoting Mamdani’s mayoral candidacy on social media,...
