NYC Mayor Mamdani says Netanyahu is a war criminal and explores arrest if he visits
I love that Mayor Mamdani's call to arrest war criminal Benjamin Netanyahu has so angered the bigots. Whenever they are angry, it's a good day for the USA.
tsoprano.bsky.social23I'll bet it's angered the Israeli bot farms.
hogmeister1964.bsky.social11Well said Mayor. Facts matter. Nethanyahu is a genocidal monster.
EthanObama8Dean, it doesn't bother you that Mamdani even considered it? You, being a lawyer, knew full well he had no authority to arrest Bibi. But he went through this entire "trump-like" scam for his base. Why doesn't that bother you?
Scott Gable5Arrest. Handcuff. Shackles. Tower of London. Throw Away The F***in’ Key
Johnny B. Goode5The very day Israel became a country the Arabs attacked.The Arabs attacking caused this as well.Quit attacking the Jews and the Arabs wouldn't get their asses handed to them.Pretty simple.
Slicer and Dicer of Nybbles and Bits5Every time a bigot/MAGAt is triggered, a Democrat gets its wings.
Netanyahu IS a War Criminal. He should be imprisoned for LIFE.
hapm.bsky.social6Yes, Netanyahu is a war criminal…along with Putin & Trump…
oldestgoat.bsky.social4Why waste the money housing him. Hang him.
Salute Gesundheit4America must realize Israeli intelligence is garbage. Israel had the intelligence for October 7 for over one year. Israel had no idea of Iran’s missile capabilities or anti-aircraft capability. How many Americans are dead because of shitty Israeli intelligence?
Sammi Law2Name an "American" President that does NOT qualify as a war criminal.
E Pluribus Unum curmudgeon561The AlPAC whores in Congress are Zionist war criminals.
redjacket2.bsky.social1He is a terrorist that leads a terrorist country..
The New York Mayor urged the federal government to enforce the International Criminal Court’s arrest warrant against the Israeli prime minister, but Trump has said it won’t happen.
blkhornet.bsky.social12Trump needs to go to the ICC as well.
CSII-Think-Tank7Arrest Putin too. Both are criminal under international law. Trump too? Rich S.
#MyFellowVertebrates5@mayor.nyc.gov I totally agree with you concerning the war criminal, the genocidist, the truly evil, Netanyahu
WrongSafeWord5Doesn't Mamdani understand that Mossad would release the #Epstein files if @whitehouse-47.bsky.social had Bibi arrested.
captainlordmonta.bsky.social3I say we invite some Commandos from Europe so they can whisk Bibi away to Den Haag
@spiritbeing.bsky.social 3It should have happened when Putin was on American soil too. Unfortunately, the 3 of them are thick as thieves. Trump will be on the War Criminal list soon.
Mamdani has played MAGA and right-wing media like a fiddle by doubling down and saying Netanyahu should be arrested as a war criminal. Fox News has spent all day playing his comments on a loop, getting his message out there that an extremely unpopular foreign leader should be held accountable.
K. Moore 🦋📚🎼6I have a feeling that many fox viewers agree with Mamdani on this.
Stork2Obviously we're going to need Kevin O'Leary's take on this.

Eric Jefferson1It's astounding to me that the mayor of a city that most Fox News' viewers do not live in, or perhaps will even ever visit, has become the latest boogeyman worthy of their obsession.
Fred Guttenberg is one of those guys who regularly says he "despises Netanyahu," but then when Mamdani is like, "I think Netanyahu should face trial for the war crimes he's committed," Guttenberg jumps right to screeching about antisemitism.
Parker Molloy330Anyway, I think it's gross that he still hides behind his gun victim daughter as a sort of "you're not allowed to criticize me" shield, even having her as his profile picture while he does this bigoted nonsense.
NFLGimpy10ya this dude lost the plot
gnielsen49.bsky.social2They don't seem to get that the more you equate Netanyahu's fascism with antisemitism, the more likely people will be antisemites.
Probablymatic 🇺🇦1He’s pretending to despise Netanyahu. I think many others do this, also.
seems like calling netanyahu a war criminal should be the bare minimum and yet
Memento (artemis) Morty 🌙76it's sad that it's so refreshing to see a politician have a soul and call a spade a spade
testpressing4after an entire lifetime of the NYC mayor being doofus after doofus this feels significant
Cloaca Manifesto ☭𖤐ѧ4i’m just glad people keep saying it loudly the cracks are showing and i love it
johntk.bsky.social2We simply can't forgive the crimes of others just because of some distorted concept of "friendship." Laws apply to all or none. And I prefer living under laws.
Franklinstein2we'll get suspended if we say what he really deserves smdh
Ozma1The double tap on the World Central Kitchen workers, journalist after journalist.
Mayor Zohran Mamdani said New York can’t execute the international arrest warrant against Benjamin Netanyahu, but the federal government should.
oddmediapro.bsky.social10Trump is also a war criminal
JeniFromCali ༺✿༻6The ICC needs to arrest both Netanyahu and his orange partner in crime.
Stevie Wonder Motorista3Mamdani, what a great man...
DoveWithClaws1As predicted. That’s fine for now. Israel’s day of reckoning will soon be upon it.
jswca.bsky.social1Honestly, perhaps the Mayor should concentrate on improving NYC. That is why he got elected. All his pronouncements about Netanyahu are not part of his job description. He is not part of the Federal government of the USA.
Patty Shenker8The federal governor will welcome him with open ARMS!
Bernard Wastiaux 4« La mauvaise foi est un art. »
LOS MALVINAS SON PINGUINOS, MSW (NOT A MAN)2Honestly? Let a judge sort that out. Netanyahu can be perp walked he's not made of Teflon.
𝖆𝖘𝖙𝖗𝖔𝖑𝖎𝖈𝖍2I'm sorry, but this is unacceptable and honestly really hurts the positive view I had of him. You live in a world were innocents are being executed in the streets for not liking what ICE is doing, meanwhile a genocidal fascist waltzes through your front door and "whoops, all nothing"
I applaud Mamdani here for being honest and admitting he does not have the legal authority to arrest Netanyahu, but that the federal government does and should. Netanyahu is a war criminal wanted by the ICC and Mamdani point blank calls on the feds to uphold the arrest warrant and arrest Netanyahu.
Rich Seviora3The feds can’t without an arrest warrant issued by an American court
tshenkman.bsky.social1Grandstanding. He knows Feds won’t. But if Netanyahu at UN seems other nations who abide by international law could arrest him 🤞And issue warrant for Trump et al for all civilians & children killed in this illegal vanity war
Flora1Isn’t Bibi BFFs with the Kushners & Trumps?
These nations publicly affirmed almost immediately after the warrant was issued that they would uphold their Rome Statute obligations and execute the arrest if Netanyahu entered their territory…
Trump's Tombstone36Unfortunately, Americans now live in a country that is complicit, compliant and collaborative, thanks to the war criminals Trump and Netanyahu.
Madam Airlock14This is great and all, but we don't need countries explicitly declaring they'll arrest Netanyahu if he visits. We need countries shutting the fuck up until Netanyahu visits, *then* arresting him and explaining they're enforcing the ICC warrant.
Legitimate Building5I live in the Netherlands. The country that hosts the ICC. But I wouldn’t bet the farm on my country arresting Netanyahu, in spite of these brave words. They’re already failing at protecting the members of the ICC… 🤬
RollendeRechter5Well, you can bump The Netherlands from the list. All our leaders do is perception management. Check the boycott that isn't. Says it all.

Krystal 🇺🇦 Slava Ukraini! 🌊I WILL RESIST!💙 #Epstein 🚫ICE2Where is France, Germany, the UK, Italy and more? Come on, step up or admit that Justice is no part of your national identity. America? Frankly it hasn't been part of ours in 2016-2020 and since 2024 and it has limped for a lot of other times when expediency was put first. Come ON!
Emma Vigeland is giving away the game here. That whole dog and pony show by Zohran Mamdani wasn't about him believing he actually had the authority to arrest Benjamin Netanyahu while he's the sitting New York mayor. It was about ratf*cking the 2028 Democratic presidential primaries.
Ragnarok Lobster47And do not miss how Emma claims Mamdani's role "... in legitimizing the broader democratic socialist movement..." is equal to the role of mayor, the one the citizens of New York City actually elected him to do. EVERYTHING is about building their wacky brand.
M911TY for being 1 of maybe 8.5 ppl who fucking see through the lies. i keep telling everyone who self identifies as a leftist 2 be ready 4 the inevitable knife in the back from zohran, but the hero worship remains. embarrassing how infantilized otherwise literate people have allowed themselves to get..
Lisa Mikolajczyk 🇺🇸🇺🇦✡️10The federal government has zero authority to arrest Netanyahu. She’s an idiot. And he’s full of shit.
Henry 10they're gonna be upset when Bibi loses his job.
EthanObama7Makes me angry, actually. He knew on day one he couldn't arrest Bibi. Yet, he went through this entire stunt to increase the vibes around him.
Illyrian5Fuck all of these people. Fuck them all.
Again, Mamdani may not have legal powers to arrest Netanyahu, but this isn't just theatre. All politicians, at all levels, should oppose war crimes & genocide, and promote accountability. There'd be exactly zero issue if he was calling for the arrest of Putin. And so it should be with Netanyahu.
(((woland))) 🇺🇲✡️🇺🇦16Calling on the federal government to arrest Netanyahu or Putin is a form of political pressure. Pretending for months & months that a NYC Mayor can order an arrest of a foreign head of state, then pretending to "investigate the law" & figuring out the obvious "no I can't" is political theater.
jrielg.bsky.social2Mandani didn't "call" for anyone's arrest, he said he would do it, get it straight
Canuck2It is just theatre. Mamdani is just another Israel hater. His wife an Hamas supporter. Mamdani in an Interview says Israel isn’t a real country but only a concept. Well fuck gin and his Islamist friends.
L’Etat C’est Moi1Pro-tip: there is no genocide in Gaza. But Islamist terrorists are definitely engaged in genocide against Israelis. I'm so glad you oppose them.
McKeen Photos (I shoot people and things for money. And fun.)3Dear Santa I know we (well, some half baked but fully Cooked casseroles) treated Ms Adern badly, but could we please - pretty, pretty please - have a political leader like Mamdani again? Breath of fresh air. It shouldn’t be a rarity to see a politician with a moral backbone.
Wallet Inspector MetaBlueSky ♨️2It is absolutely theater and I'll be even cruder. If it was Putin or Omar Al-Bashir he wouldn't care a damn about ICC warrants or huff and puff and paw the ground insisting he can arrest them.
