Radical Socialist NYC Mayoral Candidate Making Dems Nervous: Sen. Gillibrand Begs Mamdani to Denounce ‘Globalize the Intifada’ Rhetoric

Democrats are getting nervous about how the views and policies of the socialist NYC Mayoral candidate, Zohran Mamdani, may further expose their own radical plans. And they want him to tone it down.

On Thursday, during a heated exchange with WNYC radio host Brian Lehrer, Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY) called on Mamdani to unequivocally denounce the phrase “globalize the Intifada.”

Gillibrand argued that the phrase is received by the public (correctly) as a call to “slaughter the Jews.”

A caller to the show accused Mamdani of glorifying Hamas and supporting the violent attacks associated with the intifada terrorism campaign Israel faced in the 1990s.

Gillibrand responded to the assertion adding,”The caller is exactly the New York constituents that I’ve spoken to that are alarmed. They are alarmed by past public statements. They are alarmed by past positions, particularly references to global jihad,” she said.

“This is a very serious issue because people that glorify the slaughter of Jews create fear in our communities. The global intifada is a statement that means destroy Israel and kill all the Jews.”

Gillibrand urged Mamdani to assure all New Yorkers that “he will protect all Jews and protect houses of worship and protect funding for not-for-profits that meet the needs of these communities.”

Lehrer took issue with Gillibrand position and her assertion that Mamdani had called for a “global intifada.”

The senator replied, “One of the issues I did talk to him about yesterday was exactly this issue, and he has agreed to work with me on this and to protect all residents.”

Per Fox News:

“On Mamdani, I just feel compelled to say we can find no evidence that he has supported Hamas or has supported violent jihad, as that caller was asserting. Can you?” he questioned.

Gillibrand asserted that while she doesn’t have “all the data and information” in front of her, she did recall Mamdani referencing “global intifada,” and noted that she had requested an in-person meeting with the mayoral hopeful to discuss these issues.

The radio host pushed back on the senator once again, claiming that Mamdani clarified to him on his show on Monday that calls for a global intifada “are not calls for violence because intifada is a much broader term involving all kinds of uprisings and resistance and things like that.”

Brian, I didn’t hear your exchange with him, but if I was speaking to him directly, I would simply say that is not how the words are received,” she countered. “It doesn’t matter what meaning you have in your brain. It is not how the word is received. When you use a word like intifada — to many Jewish Americans and Jewish New Yorkers, that means you are permissive of violence against Jews.”

Earlier in the week, longtime Democrat strategist James Carville reacted to Mamdani’s primary win, calling it a ‘potentially damaging event’ and seemed to lament the fact that Democrats could no longer dodge the socialist label.
