Here, from Ariel Zilber’s article for the New York Post, is a little something the voters in New York City might want to consider on election day:
The Democratic Socialists of America — the organization backing New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani — denounced the “conditional” cease-fire deal between Israel and Hamas and called for continued resistance against the Jewish state in a statement released Monday.
The far-left group said the truce “will not end Israel’s assault on the Palestinian people or the theft and occupation of Palestinian lands,” describing it as a “conditional cease-fire” that “does not wash the hands of the ruling class that … continued to fuel and arm genocide while stoking regional war.”
While acknowledging “the relief that may be afforded to Palestinians under the agreement in humanitarian assistance and cessation of Israeli military operations,” the DSA said it harbors “no illusions that Israel will honor any negotiated agreement that preserves Palestinian life or self-determination.”
The group asserted that “past cease-fires only slowed the carnage” and that Israel “continued military action with impunity.”
The 85,000-member socialist organization said it supports “the end of Israel’s colonization and occupation of all Arab lands,” “equality,” and “the right of all refugees to return to their homes and properties.”
It pledged to “break the gears of the US imperial war machine that enables Israel” and to intensify boycott and divestment campaigns against the Jewish state.
Translation: no Israel. Not in any form.
And if that isn’t enough, how about this, from Ryan King’s article, also in the New York Post:
New York City mayoral hopeful Zohran Mamdani’s wife publicly mourned the death of a Palestinian influencer who openly glorified the Oct. 7, 2023, massacre in Israel.
Rama Duwaji, an animator who tied the knot with the socialist in a February civil ceremony, posted four broken-heart emojis on Instagram Sunday to grieve Palestinian influencer Saleh al-Jafarawi.
“Beloved Jafarawi,” she wrote on her Instagram story.
Jafarawi, who documented the war in Gaza, was confirmed killed Sunday in clashes between Hamas and other Palestinian factions, according to reports.
The 27-year-old Palestinian became known as “Mr. FAFO” in Israeli media because he gleefully celebrated the Hamas terror attack.
Is this who you want to be in charge of the city you live in?
If so, get ready for four years of hate-inspired bliss.
If not, maybe you should think twice before casting that ballot. Fair enough?.
