FROM NEW YORK POST: Mayoral front-runner Zohran Mamdani on Wednesday repeatedly refused to say that Hamas should lay down its weapons — as he stood by his promise to arrest Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu if he comes to New York City.
The Democratic nominee went into the lion’s den for a highly anticipated interview on Fox News’ “The Story with Martha MacCullum,” where the host grilled the vocal critic of Israel on the cease-fire in Gaza.
Persistently pressed by MacCullum on if Hamas should put down its weapons — a key pillar of the deal that the terror group has refused to accept — and give up leadership in Gaza, Mamdani tried to wiggle out of the line of questioning.
“I don’t really have opinions about the future of Hamas and Israel beyond the question of justice and safety, and the fact that anything has to abide by international law,” he said. “That applies to Hamas, that applies to the Israeli military, applies to anyone you could ask me about.”
Asked if he should congratulate Trump for brokering the cease-fire deal, Mamdani said, “I think it’s too early to do so. But if it proves to be something that is lasting, something that is durable, I think that’s where you go.”
WOW.
Antisemite and Communist Zohran Mamdani REFUSES to say whether Hamas terrorists should disarm.
Mamdani’s wife recently mourned a pro-Hamas extremist.
