“Mamdani’s game is a shotgun marriage of ideological convenience. As Glastonbury’s descent into Nuremberg-with-tents shows, sticking it to the Jews has become integral to the radical performance: a kinds of degenerate Passion Play, the symbolic heart of the Omnicause.” — Dominic Green *** FOR REAL? The Buffalo Blueprint for Defeating Zohran Mamdani: Jason L. Riley, […]
Dominic Green The Jewish Chronicle, July 3, 2025 “The young anti-Israel agitators on the party’s Left believe that tomorrow belongs to them.” And the winner of the Democratic nomination for the next mayor of New York City is… Zohran Mamdani. Is New York, the city of Seinfeld, Streisand and the 9/11 attacks, really going […]
Gabe Friedman Times of Israel, July 2, 2025 “I’m not comfortable supporting any state that has a hierarchy of citizenship on the basis of religion or anything else.” Though he was elected to represent Astoria, Queens, in New York’s State Assembly, Zohran Mamdani — who last week pulled off a stunning upset in New […]
Gila Isaacson JFeed, June 10, 2025 “For some Jewish voters, Mamdani’s criticism of Israel, including his support for the “Not on Our Dime” bill to prohibit nonprofits from funding Israeli settlement activity, is less a dealbreaker than a point of debate.” In the bustling, diverse landscape of New York City’s 2025 mayoral race, Zohran Mamdani, a 33-year-old […]
Jonathan S. Tobin JNS, July 1, 2025 “Mamdani has been an ardent advocate for the cause of “free Palestine,” which is to say the effort to “free” the territory—meaning, from the Jewish population—of the only Jewish state on the planet.” It didn’t take long for the Democratic Party’s media cheering section to demonstrate how […]

“ … the [BBC] episode was “a time of national shame” that “brings confidence in our national broadcaster’s ability to treat antisemitism seriously to a new low.” — Britain’s Chief Rabbi, Sir Ephraim Mirvis MORAL COURAGE This is an anti-Fascist: Brendan O’Neill, Spiked, June 30, 2025 — The name we should remember from this […]
Joseph Brean National Post, July 1, 2025 “The British broadcast regulator Ofcom said the BBC “has questions to answer” and that it has been urgently investigating what procedures were in place to ensure the BBC complied with its own editorial guidelines.” When Pascal Robinson-Foster, 34, a rapper from Ipswich, U.K., who goes by “Bobby […]
Mary Harrington Unherd, June 30, 2025 “Those on the Right that hew to a civic-nationalist view of identity tend to break older and more wealthy.” Another year, another Glastonbury culture war moment. Last year it was Banksy’s inflatable model Channel migrant boat, which “sailed” across the crowd during an Idles set. This year it was Bob Vylan, […]
Tom Slater Spiked, June 29, 2025 “The Gail’s crowd, the Glastonbury goers, have imbibed the poison fully now. Screaming blood libels against the world’s only Jewish nation is now what it means to be a Good Person.” If you can’t see it now, you never will. The sight of tens of thousands of people […]
