Mamdani: 'Boot of NYPD' Has 'Been Laced by the IDF'

New York City mayoral front-runner Zohran Mamdani once made an anti-police statement that suggested a conspiratorial connection between the city's police department and the Israeli military.

"We have to make clear that when the boot of the NYPD is on your neck, it's been laced by the IDF [Israel Defense Forces]," the democratic socialist said in newly resurfaced video obtained by the New York Post on Tuesday.

Mamdani reportedly made his remarks in 2023 during the Democratic Socialists of America’s national convention, where the Queens assemblyman served as the keynote speaker.

At the time, he said it was important to connect "hyperlocal" and "international issues" while speaking as part of a separate panel called "Socialist Internationalism: The Solution to the Crisis of Capitalism."

"We are in a country where those connections abound — especially in New York City, where there are so many opportunities to make clear the ways in which that struggle over there is tied to capitalist interests over here," he said

"For anyone to care about these issues, we have to make them connected," he continued. "We have to make clear that when the boot of the NYPD is on your neck, it's been laced by the IDF. We have to make it materially connected to their lives."

Former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo has cut Mamdani's lead in the mayoral race by half, roughly a week before Election Day, according to a Suffolk University poll released Monday.

The poll is the first public survey in the last three months to show the race so close.

Propelled to an upset victory in the June Democratic primary by his progressive positions, including his previous defund-the-police rhetoric, Mamdani has been trying to distance himself in recent weeks from his more extreme comments.

Earlier this month, he publicly apologized to the NYPD for derogatory comments he made in 2020, when he called the force "racist, anti-queer & a major threat to public safety." He also said recently that he plans to ask Jessica Tisch to stay as police commissioner if he wins the November election.

The Post reported that many police veterans are skeptical of Mamdani's attempt to modulate his message, including former NYPD Commissioner Ray Kelly, who endorsed Cuomo for mayor on Monday.

^^^^^^^
Pretty good!

Can you imagine how he will publicly commemorate the 25th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks next September? Will he condone the radical ideology or blame America for oppressing people around the world? Will he have his imam buddies speak and shame the US?

He would have to have his soapbox time with his sharia-following buddies at a separate location than the main ceremony. Or stay home. For the 25th anniversary, I would imagine President Trump and his NY friends making the event bigger than normal. Hopefully the mayor and his friends would be on the ‘do not admit’ list.

I think that Mamdani will lose. The NYC Dems currently in power are adept at ballot fraud.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
I am not so sure. Lots of folks moving to Florida already. This Free Shit only goes so far. I am waiting to see the government run grocery store where the clerks make fifty bucks an hour and they do not carry meat or produce. Only open from nine to noon.
Jamaica has had Democratic Socialism for years plus now a cat five hurricane, Unless Great Britain come to the rescue they are toast,

I just saw that Trump is endorsing Cuomo; strange times indeed but it’s clear that beating socialism is the goal here, not inter-party fighting.

Not a chance.

“Devastating impact of Mamdani's election will be FAR WORSE than first thought: Exclusive poll finds America's greatest city facing 'historic' population wipeout“

Snip -

“Nearly one million New Yorkers are preparing to flee the city should democratic socialist Zohran Mamdani win the race for mayor, a poll has found.

The departure of at least 765,000 citizens would be one of the biggest mass exoduses in American history, with a population equivalent in size to Washington DC, Las Vegas or Seattle leaving the Big Apple.

The crushing survey, conducted by JL Partners for the Daily Mail, found that 9 percent of New Yorkers would 'definitely' leave the city, which currently has a population of 8.5 million.“

Captain Obvious says that this would be the beginning of an absolutely devastating downward spiral for NYC across the economic, social, cultural, safety & security, occupancy demographics spectrum, etc.

The problem with "democratic socialism" is that sooner or later you run out of other people's money.

In this case, sooner rather than later...

If they really vote with their feet. The poll does use the word "definitely".

It's insane watching NYC commit suicide like this.

Anyone with the means and money will flee

Everyone left will go into a death spiral of massively increased taxes and reduced services...causing even more to flee

Absolutely crazy

Well I really hope they do not flee south to PA. We are already a swing state and do not need any more moderate liberals to vote blue.

I hope for that too, and my guess is that the well-to-do will migrate to states that are tax-advantageous for them (PA is not considered strong in that category) and then proceed to phuk those states and cities up with their “Progressive” and destructive political leanings.

Of the 9% estimated to ‘make tracks’ early on. . .

“Crucially, the poll found 7 percent of those earning over $250,000 would definitely leave New York City under a 'Mayor Mamdani.'

. . .probably means that PA is generally safe from the libtarded evacuation from NYC, at least for now.

Let the games begin

I’m wondering how long it will be before there are blocked streets with Muslim trash “praying” as they do in occupied European countries. I’m sincerely hoping the REAL New Yorkers lose their shit and revolt.

Heh heh heh

Good on him to tell the leftist NYC trash to go elsewhere and not ruin his state fleeing the shithole they ruined:

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott threatened to slap New Yorkers with a “100% tariff” if they flee to the Lone Star State if Democratic socialist Zohran Mamdani is elected mayor.
