Mayor Zohran Mamdani has been blasted for fueling antisemitism and “inciting violence” against Jews after the socialist branded the American Israel Public Affairs Committee and its pro-Israel supporters “monsters” at a campaign rally. Chaim Steinmetz, senior rabbi of the Kehilath Jeshurun synagogue on Manhattan’s Upper East Side, said he was stunned by the mayor’s flagrantly incendiary comments during a June 18 campaign rally with Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders and a slate of Democratic Socialists of America and progressive candidates ahead of Tuesday’s primary elections.
