Israel’s foreign ministry has accused the New York mayor, Zohran Mamdani, of pouring “antisemitic gasoline on an open fire” after he reversed a recent order by the outgoing mayor, Eric Adams.
“On his very first day as @NYCMayor, Mamdani shows his true face: he scraps the IHRA definition of antisemitism and lifts restrictions on boycotting Israel. This isn’t leadership. It’s antisemitic gasoline on an open fire,” the foreign ministry said in a post on X.
Mamdani revoked an Adams-era order that adopted the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance’s definition of antisemitism, which the previous administration said included “demonizing Israel and holding it to double standards as forms of contemporary antisemitism”.
Israel’s response came hours after Mamdani issued an order to rescind all executive orders that Adams issued after he was indicted on federal corruption charges in 2024 – charges that were later, controversially, dropped.


I know they are a uk based news outlet but they are popular here and market to Americans like they expect us to read it and they still aren’t Israeli so what’s your point?
Also it not just this paper reporting this crap it’s nonstop.
Oh no! A UK-based news outlet dares to write about things happening outside of the UK, unlike every other news outlet in the world. And they’ve become popular in the US, how dare they! This definitely means they’re ‘our’ US news site, like every cowardly and duplicitous US news outlet, which is all of them.
And they’re also still ‘aren’t Israeli’, whatever the fuck that means despite The Guardian consistently criticizing Israel’s attempts at the inflammatory foreign policy and comments, and you being deliberately blind to all of that. So what does your incoherent drivel mean?
P.S. I can still see you downvoting my unrelated comments, dummy.
I was saying that a news outlet that I used to respect is using their platform to amplify the propaganda of a hostile foreign leader. I don’t understand what your problem is with that. Maybe you just have problems in general?
I said “our news outlets” because this is a place I normally get my news you fucking idiot.
I was expressing disgust with the paper I read. But you really got me!
Not only you’re dumb beyond belief as to interpret things as that, but of course you also downvote every comment of mine here and there as if they have anything to do with anything, like that helps your argument in any way.
Please continue to spout ridiculous nonsense as to how any site you ever visited is “your news outlet”, that will surely fortify your view.
Sounds like you are just a Zionist anyways. Probably a “settler”.
Oh yeah, anyone who downvotes your nonsensical drivel any time per your hundreds of downvotes is a ‘settler’. Just like it works with Israelites. But somehow you’re not one of them asswipes hijacking actual constructive discussion, are you? No, you’re just one of the incoherent clowns repeating the same accusations against people opposed to actual political discussion, aren’t you?
