Mayor Zohran Mamdani will notably be skipping the Israel Day Parade — saying Thursday its because he disagrees with the Jewish state’s government. The mayor’s comments drew consternation from Jewish leaders, who slammed Mamdani for turning the annual celebration political, as he held firm to his longtime decision not to attend the parade set for Sunday. “You know, I said on the campaign trail that I wouldn’t be attending the parade, and I’ve made my views on the Israeli government abundantly clear,” Mamdani said, standing alongside NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch during a security briefing about the event.
