@elivalley:
The IHRA is an antisemitism-generator that redefines antisemitism to criminalize criticism of ethnic cleansing and apartheid. This is why genocide activists are typing in all-caps today
And it’s why grifting crooks who helped turn the US government into a country club for Nazi pedophiles are calling it “a declaration of war.”
And it’s why a government that equates Judaism with genocide is pretending to give a shit about New York City’s Jews:
@IsraelMFA:
On his very first day as @NYCMayor, Mamdani shows his true face: He scraps the IHRA definition of antisemitism and lifts restrictions on boycotting Israel.
This isn’t leadership. It’s antisemitic gasoline on an open fire.
@libyanredcamel:
I was unaware that Israel was part of New York City.
@Angrylebanese:
Let me make this simple:
- IHRA isn’t law
- Boycotts are protected speech
- Israel ≠ Judaism
- Free speech isn’t antisemitism
- This outrage is performative
- Trivializing antisemitism cheapens it
- Learn the Constitution
- This is bad faith dressed up as moral outrage

They. Only. Want. Free. Speech. For. Themselves.
They won’t stop until 1984 is a reality.

It’s lsrael. It’s always been lsraelYup, I’ve observed that too, throughout my entire lifetime, not just since Israel’s sick Hannibal Directive on Oct 7, mass slaughtering its own people to justify escalating Israel’s land thefts in the West Bank, and genocide in Gaza.

Imagine not having the IQ to figure out that riots talking place just as Netanyahu arrives in the U.S. to coordinate toppling Iran is an obvious FLASE FLAG.
I recommend not trusting anyone who bought it.
@RaniaKhalek:
Zohran Mamdani revoked an outrageous executive order that conflated criticism of Israel with anti-semitism.
So of course the Israeli government accused him of anti-semitism
Bye bye IHRA
At this point the Israelis want you to believe the first amendment is antisemitic
@AliAbunimah:
A good step by @NYCMayor @ZohranKMamdani revoking executive orders effectively requiring official government loyalty to the foreign entity “Israel” and limiting rights to speak openly about its barbaric crimes and inherently racist nature.

Zohran Mamdani was sworn in with his hand on a Quran… because he’s Muslim. Deal with it.
Mayor Zohran Mamdani has revoked Ex Mayor Adams’s prior order (June 2025) that New York use the IHRA definition of antisemitism, which conflates anti-Zionism with anti-Jewish bigotry.
Israel accuses Mamdani of antisemitism on first day as New York mayor, Foreign ministry says mayor has poured ‘antisemitic gasoline on an open fire’ by scrapping IHRA definition by Edward Helmore, 2 Jan 2026, The Guardian
Israel’s foreign ministry has accused the New York mayor, Zohran Mamdani, of pouring “antisemitic gasoline on an open fire” after he reversed a recent order by the outgoing mayor, Eric Adams.
“On his very first day as @NYCMayor, Mamdani shows his true face: he scraps the IHRA definition of antisemitism and lifts restrictions on boycotting IsraelBRAVO!. This isn’t leadership. It’s antisemitic gasoline on an open fire,” the foreign ministry said in a post on X.
Mamdani revoked an Adams-era order that adopted the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance’s definition of antisemitism, which the previous administration said included “demonizing Israel and holding it to double standards as forms of contemporary antisemitism”.
In a statement, the New York chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (Cair-NY) said it welcomed the revocation of the “controversial and overly broad” IHRA definition of “antisemitism” that it said is “often used to censor criticism of the Israeli government’s racism and crimes against humanity”.
“Mayor Adams’ order would have enshrined the controversial IHRA definition of antisemitism even though its author has said it was never meant for government use and though the overly-broad definition declares any recognition of the Israeli government’s racism or disagreement with Zionism as antisemitic,” the statement read. “The order would have also unconstitutionally limited boycotts against only Israel.”
The council called Adams’s order an “unconstitutional, Israel First attack on free speech [that] should have never been issued in the first place. We applaud Mayor Mamdani for immediately overturning it.”
Israel’s response came hours after Mamdani issued an order to rescind all executive orders that Adams issued after he was indicted on federal corruption charges in 2024 – charges that were later, controversially, dropped.
Mamdani’s office said the decision was to ensure “a fresh start for the incoming administration”.
One of Adams’s orders, now revoked, included prohibiting city officials overseeing the city pension system from making decisions in line with the boycott, divestment and sanctions (BDS) movement, which Mamdani has said he supports.I’ve been boycotting Israeli goods as long as I can remember
A second order directed the New York police commissioner, currently Jessica Tisch, to evaluate proposals for regulating protest activity occurring close to houses of worship. It came after demonstrations outside an Upper East Side synagogue hosting an event promoting immigration to Israel sparked claims of antisemitism.
“New York City has always been this nation’s melting pot, but too often, over the last few years, we’ve seen those of Jewish ancestry be singled out and targeted,” Adams said last month, adding that the measures were aimed to “protect New Yorkers’ tax dollars and protect their right to practice their religion without harassment”.
The measures were seen as an effort to curb Mamdani, who has vowed to govern as a democratic socialist, and whose past comments about Israel, including a vow to divest New York from Israeli government bonds, have sparked some opposition.
But in his address on Thursday, Mamdani was careful to reassure Jewish New Yorkers, saying: “Where else could a Muslim kid like me grow up eating bagels and lox?”
He was sworn in on the Qur’an by a Jewish New Yorker, Vermont senator Bernie Sanders. Also in attendance were Jewish religious leaders who had not endorsed Mamdani during his campaign.
“I know there are some who view this administration with distrust or disdain, or who see politics as permanently broken,” Mamdani said. “And while only action can change minds, I promise you this: if you are a New Yorker, I am your mayor. Regardless of whether we agree, I will protect you, celebrate with you, mourn alongside you, and never, not for a second, hide from you.”
After issuing his first set of executive orders, Mamdani said he would keep open the recently created office to combat antisemitism. “That is an issue that we take very seriously,” he told reporters.
He made no similar assurances for supporting an Adams-era measure to adopt the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance definition of antisemitism, which broadly codifies anti-Zionism as antisemitic.
William Daroff, the CEO of the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish organizations, called that move “a troubling indicator of the direction in which he is leading the city, just one day at the helm”.
Daroff told the liberal-leaning Forward that the move “diminishes New York City’s ability to recognize and respond to antisemitism at a time when incidents continue to rise”.

“Israel says” isn’t journalism. The EOs were about Israel, not Jewish NYers
Israeli leaders once said it was antisemitic “blood libel” to claim their soldiers fired at people seeking aid. We now know Israeli troops killed over 1000 aid seekers and often publicly boasted about it

Months later, as Mamdani is sworn in, Khalil is in the audience cheering him on.
