Socialist New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani denounced India Prime Minister Narendra Modi a “war criminal” — and is now being ripped by other city leaders for spreading “hate” about the Hindu head of state.
On the heels of making similarly provocative comments about Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Mamdani blasted Modi during a recent mayoral forum.
“This is someone we should view in the same manner we do Benjamin Netenyahu. This is a war criminal,” Mamdani said when asked a hypothetical question about whether he would meet Modi if the Indian leader visited the Big Apple.
Mamdani, who is a Muslim of Indian descent, noted that his father Mahmood’s family hails from the Gujarat region of India, where Modi has been accused of allowing a massacre of 1,000 Muslims to go on in 2002. It’s a claim Modi has repeatedly denied.
“Narendra Modi helped to orchestrate what was a mass slaughter of Muslims in Gujarat to the extent that [people] don’t even believe there are Gujarat Muslims anymore,” Mamdani said during the May 15 “New Mayor, New Media” event sponsored by New York Focus and HellGate NY.
He also said people are “shocked” when he reveals he’s a Gujarat Muslim.
He previously slammed two New York politicians of Indian descent — Queens Assemblywoman Jenifer Rajkumar and former state Sen. Kevin Thomas — for being aligned with or not condemning Modi and his ruling Hindu government.

Muslims hate everyone and everything that is not Muslim. So let’s give Mamdani a little credit here. He’s just being honest.
Zohran Mamdani
Ain’t globalism great?
Not only can we burden American government and economy with third world statists and marxists, we also get their primitive cultures coopting western Christian culture, and especially - we get to be part of their millennia old conflicts too.
Yup he will be unless people wake up. And I b do not see enough of my fellow NYers washing thecsleep from their eyes.
Future mayor of NYC.

I’d bet on it.
New Yorkers will vote for Mamdani because they get to tell their friends just how “woke” they are.
Shouldn’t NY candidates be talking about NY issues? WTF does the PM of India have to do with it?
