Ezra Friedlander, Founder and CEO of The Friedlander Group, made eyebrow-raising remarks defending New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani, a politician widely criticized for his anti-Israel and anti-Semitic rhetoric.
Appearing on The Moster Show, Friedlander made the stunning claim that if Mamdani, a far-left progressive who has repeatedly targeted the Jewish community and defended Hamas sympathizers, were to win the mayoralty, he would not harm Jewish interests.
“No mayor of New York City getting elected today in the Democratic Party is going to have the support on the social issues for this community,” Friedlander said. “The question is, can we live our lives without government interference?”
Friedlander went on to praise Mamdani’s political skill and intellect, comments that will stun listeners given Mamdani’s record of hostility toward Israel. “Look, he’s a very smart guy. He’s very, very talented. He’s up there with Obama, with a Clinton,” Friedlander said. “I I’m I’m a contrarian. I actually believe should Mamdani become the mayor, he’s going to call this police commission and says, ‘Look, one community I want you to protect is the Jewish community. The last thing I want on my plate is for someone to accuse me that I haven’t been protected.’”
His remarks didn’t stop there. Friedlander further speculated that Mamdani would somehow cooperate with religious schools. “And even when it comes to yeshivas, I don’t think he’s going to interfere,” he said. “I think he’s going to say, ‘Look, I have too much on my plate right now. I’ll work very collegially with with the with the yeshiva community and and and they’ll be surprised.’ That’s my gut feeling. without knowing anything. I’ve never spoken to this person in my life.”

The fact that he said that Mamdani will call the police commissioner and ask to protect just one and only one community, the Jewish community, and the kapo thinks that’s a good thing, just shows how sick the kapo is and the big trouble NYC is in
