    I’m not from New York nor the US even so forgive me if I’m not up to date but how is Mandani Zionist? Isn’t he the guy the media got worked up about saying he’d arrest Netanyahou if he came to New York?

      He isn’t. But the commenter you’re replying to seems to have an obsession for down-votes.

      EDIT: grammar

        Yeah, I mostly just want to hear the actual rationality behind the claim given it goes so against everything I’ve seen about him. I genuinely can’t even think of something he’s done that could be stretched to paint him as a Zionist

      He is not, but he said he believe in, a state with, equal, rights while Zionists believe in an ethnostate. The idea of him being zionist is that someone he did concede to Zionists like Hakim and Jessica S. Tisch. It is candemnabke but not enough to call him, a Zionist and totally discredit him
