Netanyahu slams NYC mayor's 'hate speech' on Fox News
The Israeli premier linked Mamdani's anti-Israel rhetoric to the stabbing of a Jewish person days later, and warned that an Iranian attack on Israel would trigger a "very forceful" response.
During a Fox News interview on Sunday, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu criticized New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani, accusing him of "fomenting hate" and aligning with Hamas. Netanyahu linked Mamdani's anti-Israel rhetoric to a recent stabbing of a Jewish man in Manhattan and dismissed the mayor's threat to arrest him during his September visit to the UN General Assembly. He stated, "I speak to Jewish-Americans in New York and they're afraid right now." Netanyahu also discussed Iran, warning that any attack on Israel would lead to a "very forceful" response, and addressed efforts to degrade Hezbollah's capabilities in Lebanon. Additionally, he expressed support for a potential U.S.-brokered normalization deal with Saudi Arabia and voiced concerns about rising antisemitism within parts of the Democratic Party.
