“Benjamin Netanyahu says that New York Jews tell him that New York's not safe. I know a lot of Jews in New York. I talk to them. I'm related to some of them. They have lots of different views about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, all over the map. And many of them are horrified by what Israel has done. And many of them support Israel. So he doesn't speak for New York Jews. Nobody really does.”
“And I think what you're seeing here is that he's reacting personally to Mamdani’s attacks and failing to realize that actually, Israel's support amongst young people, not just in New York but on the left and the right in America, is going down. But he doesn't want to deal with that. He can't help fighting the personal battle.”
