Israeli President Herzog blasts Mamdani, praises Trump, sounds alarm on Iran
- On Saturday, Israeli President Isaac Herzog publicly rebuked New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani, accusing the mayor of spreading "blasphemy, hate, antisemitic rhetoric" that endangers Jewish residents.
- Herzog's criticism followed Mamdani's condemnation of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu as "the architect of a horrific genocide against the Palestinian people," prompting the president's warning that such rhetoric endangers New York.
- Prior controversies involving Mamdani include his refusal to condemn phrases like "globalize the intifada" during his mayoral campaign last year, and scrutiny in March when his wife liked social media posts celebrating the Hamas attack on Oct. 7, 2023.
- In the same interview, Herzog praised diplomatic efforts while claiming the International Criminal Court's warrant for Netanyahu was issued to distract from sexual allegations against ICC Chief Prosecutor Karim Khan.
- Amid heightened fears regarding antisemitic violence in New York, Mamdani does "not respect" Israel's right to exist, Herzog warned, suggesting such positioning jeopardizes long-term Palestinian peace and Jewish rights.
