AOCIA strikes again.
Let's seem if gets to Mamdani on easing up language against Pissreal too.
...
Sanders urged his now-protégé to be firm in calling for Democratic leaders to rally behind him but also to more carefully address what he’s said about Israel. ... Sanders, a Brooklyn native, was eager to welcome Mamdani for their first meeting after several phone calls, including a congratulatory one after his primary win. The closest that they’ve come in person before was at Sanders’ October 2019 rally in Queens marking his comeback after a heart attack , which Mamdani used as an early organizing opportunity for his first assembly campaign.
....
Sanders, who is Jewish, urged Mamdani to be cautious about how he approaches talking about Israel. Both are critics of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Israel’s handling of its war in Gaza.
Ahead of the trip, Mamdani told business leaders in New York that he would discourage the use of the phrase “globalize the intifada.” Mamdani, who has not used the phrase himself, has said he believes the phrase to be a rallying cry for Palestinian human rights and refused to condemn its use when asked during his primary campaign.
According to the person familiar with their conversation, Sanders told Mamdani he had to do a better job explaining that his criticism is not antisemitic and to not let himself seem like he’s minimizing the fear Jews in New York and elsewhere feel from the threat of hate against them.
Bolding mine. Bernie seems ro have a difficult time sepersting Zionazis from Judiasm. Plenty of Jews in New York have been on the front lines of anti Pissreal Aktion.
Love how Bernie just erases them and their fears and violence against them by
and Zionazis.
At the end of the day Mamdani is a Democrat. I hope he doesn't turn into another AOCIA.
