Rabbi Hirsch met with Mamzar'ani and is warning NYC Jews about him!

 

I was part of a group of rabbis who met again yesterday with @ZohranKMamdani . 

While we were pleased to be able to discuss our concerns with the mayor-elect, those concerns remain. 

We've never before had a mayor who has expressed this kind of ideological hostility to the very existence of Israel. 

It is not about policy differences; rather, it is about the denial of Israel's right to exist as a Jewish state at all.

 I continue to worry deeply about the upcoming four years and conveyed to the mayor-elect that anti-Zionist rhetoric and anti-Israel policies will threaten Jewish safety in NYC and will, inevitably, lead to an unproductive and tense relationship with the Jewish community. What Mr. Mamdani says and which policies he pursues is up to him — he will be the mayor — but I emphasized that the Jewish community will energetically oppose any and all anti-Israel rhetoric and action.
