Mayor Zohran Mamdani is inciting violence by calling on New Yorkers to take to the streets to protest Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu during his upcoming visit — and NYPD officers are not pleased. One Brooklyn cop called Mamdani “nothing more than a Jew-hating politician looking for cheap headlines.”
NY Post Police Benevolent Association President Patrick Hendry warned the mayor’s rhetoric could push things too far. “When the mayor of the city is actively calling for demonstrations, violent agitators will assume they have permission to cause as much havoc as possible,” especially against Jew, he said. “The mayor’s heated rhetoric could be enough to push demonstrations over the edge into chaos.”
“He should be governing the city and trying to keep the peace, instead of inciting a riot with his rhetoric,” he said. “He is basically telling the crazy people to do what they want, and there will be no repercussions. If a cop gets hurt, it will be on him, but that is the least of his worries.”
Mamdani has been obsessing over Netanyahu since he was on the campaign trail last year, and vowed to have him arrested if he set foot in the city due to a 2024 warrant from the International Criminal Court for alleged war crimes in Gaza. The mayor was forced to backtrack this week by admitting he didn’t have the juice to do it — but urged New Yorkers to protest Netanyahu, which means more riots for the NYPD.
One Manhattan cop asked, “Was he serious?” Another said Mamdani should “be governing the city and trying to keep the peace, instead of inciting a riot with his rhetoric.”
