New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s vow to arrest Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu during the UN General Assembly is nothing but dangerous political theater from a far-left ideologue.
US Ambassador Mike Waltz correctly called it out: pure grandstanding. Mamdani, who labels Netanyahu a “war criminal,” ignores basic realities:
Mamdani has no authority to order the NYPD to detain a foreign head of government. This stunt risks diplomatic chaos, lawsuits, and ridicule while New York faces real crises like crime, housing, and antisemitism.
As a DSA-backed radical who scrapped antisemitism protections, Mamdani prioritizes anti-Israel activism over governing. New Yorkers didn’t elect an amateur international prosecutor. This is ego-driven fantasy, not leadership. Enough.
The United States wants Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to publicly condemn militant settlers who have besieged Palestinians in their homes in the occupied West Bank, U.S. and Israeli officials said on Friday, as settlers pressured residents by pitching a new tent before Israeli soldiers arrived and it was taken down.
A Lebanese official denied on Thursday a Reuters report that Beirut had agreed with Israel to a shortlist of countries that could send troops to Lebanon to verify the disarmament of Lebanese militant group Hezbollah, and said it was following up on the issue with Washington.
Israel won't withdraw from southern Lebanon until Hezbollah is disarmed, the defence minister said on Thursday, qualifying remarks he made a day earlier that had suggested Israeli forces would occupy the territory indefinitely and drew U.S. criticism.
