It can - and is going to - happen here: Turkey Issues Arrest Warrants for Netanyahu and Senior Israeli Officials
"New polling suggests the election of Zohran Mamdani as mayor will cause nearly half of Israelis to avoid New York City.
"In a nationwide survey conducted Nov. 6, 46% of respondents said they would avoid visiting New York in light of the mayoral election results; 34% said they would travel as usual, and 20% were undecided. The poll sampled 501 adults and carries a ±4.4% margin of error.
"Asked about Mamdani himself, 83% of Israelis surveyed said they view him as antisemitic, while 8% disagreed and 9% were unsure. New York—home to the largest Jewish community outside Israel—has long been a favored destination for Israeli tourists, which makes the potential shift in travel habits notable.
"Mamdani, a 34-year-old democratic socialist, won Wednesday’s contest after rivals Andrew M. Cuomo and Curtis Sliwa conceded.
"In his victory remarks, he pledged to confront antisemitism and presented an inclusive message to Muslim residents, saying City Hall under his leadership would stand with Jewish New Yorkers and affirm a sense of belonging for more than a million Muslims in the city.

"However, Jewish critics of Mamdani see his remarks as an attempt to smooth over his image after refusing to condemn the slogan “globalize the intifada,” embracing BDS policy and threatening to have Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu arrested if he travels to New York.
"The poll’s timing—immediately after the vote—captures initial reactions rather than long-term behavior. Still, the results highlight a divide between Israeli public sentiment and parts of the American Jewish electorate, a split that has surfaced repeatedly in recent years over Israel-related politics in major U.S. cities.
"Mamdani is due to take office on Jan. 1 for a four-year term." . . .
"In this episode of The Spectator P.M. Podcast, hosts Ellie Gardey Holmes and Lyrah Margo discuss the poll results and why young women tend to vote liberal. They also discuss feminism within the conservative movement in light of the recent controversy over Nick Fuentes, who has been vocal about his disdain for women.

Mamdani’s All-Female Fantasy
. . . "If Mamdani truly believes that the best person for every job just happens to be a woman, then fine. But if his all-female team was assembled to prove a point rather than solve a problem, then New York is in for a rude awakening. Symbolism makes for stirring headlines, but it rarely fills potholes or fixes budgets. It’s easy to pick a team that looks virtuous; it’s harder to build one that actually works."
What comes to my mind are the young female voices cheering every liberal oration made by any Democrat politician, no matter how Newsomish or Swalwellish. The Tunnel Dweller
