Eric Adams Warns Israelis That Jews Might Not Be Safe in NYC After Mamdani Win: ‘I Would Be Concerned Right Now’
Mayor Adams, speaking about rising antisemitism, at first open-to-press event in Israel:
“If I was a Jewish New Yorker with children, I would be concerned right now
“I’m not just the mayor that’s leaving office, I’m your brother, and we will continue to stand side by side.”
“The Jewish community continues to face unprecedented antisemitic threat levels. Yet barring an improbable 180-degree ideological about-face from Mamdani, Jews in New York City will lack an ally in City Hall come January. If past is prologue, a Mamdani administration will refuse to recognize as antisemitism hate that vilifies and demonizes Jews on the basis of the Jewish people’s connection to Israel,” Katz said.After Mamdani was elected, the Combat Anti-Semitism Movement said it had its work cut out for it.
“Jewish New Yorkers are right to be alarmed,” the group’s Chief Government Affairs Officer Lisa Katz said, noting that Mamdani’s “radical outlook and history of antisemitic rhetoric should concern all New Yorkers.”
