I met Zohran Kwame Mamdani after the primaries. The reason he can't explain away his support for slogans like "Globalize the Intifada" is that they represent his core beliefs. He does not hide it; to the contrary, he is proud of it...

To all our young people this #YomKippur: we tried to instill in you a sense of justice, righteousness and honor for all people. We are proud when your generation actively pursues these values. But we did not intend for some in your generation to turn their backs on our people…

American Jews fought for immigration and urged the acceptance of Muslim and Arab refugees. And now some of those very people cry for us to "Go back to Poland!" We seek coexistence, but the sad truth is that the other side does not...

.Zohran Kwame Mamdani I do not speak for all Jews, but I do represent the views of the large majority of the NY Jewish community, which is increasingly concerned about your statements about Israel and the Jewish people. I urge you to reconsider your long-held rejection of Israel’s right to exist. Be a uniter and a peacemaker.

A non-partisan word to our elected #Democrats: Do not take American #Jews for granted. Be careful: The results of the upcoming elections do not only depend on Michigan.

“Globalize the Intifada” means Bondi Beach. There is a direct connection between hateful words and hateful deeds. And there is a direct connection between hatred of Israel and hatred of Jews.

The Western world is losing the plot again with respect to the #Jews... Be proud Jews! Do not confuse moral conviction with virtue signaling. Stand up for the truth. We need to make anti-#Zionism disreputable again; we need to strip it of its veneer of virtue.

I asked the leading candidates for the #NY12 congressional seat if they agree with the claim that the Democratic Party has moved away from its support for #Israel. I can't tell you how many people have told me recently, people who formerly were supportive of the party, that they feel politically homeless. Watch their responses⬇️ | George Conway ⚖️🇺🇸 Micah Lasher Jack Schlossberg Nina Schwalbe, PhD

Dear young people: You never before had to prove that you cared about Judaism. But if you want a Jewish future, you must embrace the truth that it is you who will forge the next phase of the Jewish saga...

.Zohran Kwame Mamdani's win is remarkable since: (1) he has no managerial experience but will be running most complicated US bureaucracy; (2) he's a socialist in the most capitalist city in civilization's history; (3) he's an anti-Zionist in the planet's most Jewishly populous city.

Our movement has failed to communicate to many younger Jews — including some rabbis — that Zionism is integral to Judaism. An anti-Zionist rabbi is a contradiction in terms. That’s why I was in Israel last week with 24 other Reform rabbis. I am determined to make a difference.

What's the big deal? NYC's mayor has little influence on foreign policy. If Zohran Kwame Mamdani pursues anti-Zionism as a central policy objective, appoints anti-Zionists to oversee NYC's public schools, uses his platform to delegitimize Israel... it will put all Jews in danger.

The protests are about what they say: “Globalize the intifada.” That's social justice? Dismantling the world’s only Jewish state by murdering innocents? Woe to the students who believe these ideas, the teachers who taught them, and the administrators who do not reject them.

What starts with the Jews never ends with the Jews. Sderot will come to Sydney. Be’eri will come to Brooklyn. Nir Oz will come to Notting Hill. First the Jews, then the Jews of the West, then the West itself...

The iron-clad lesson of Jewish history that we neglected on Oct. 6 is that when someone threatens to kill Jews, believe them. Judaism teaches: "If your enemy seeks your destruction, arise earlier to thwart him."
