Josh Riley’s Leader Calls Netanyahu “War Criminal” & Threatens to Arrest Him

July 21, 2026

Zohran Mamdani, Israel-hating socialist and leader of Josh Riley’s Democrat Party, just called Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu a “war criminal” and threatened to arrest him when he comes to NYC in September.

Sadly, Mamdani’s hatred for Israel and the Jewish community is nothing new. Since taking over as mayor, he rescinded a policy barring NYC agencies from divesting from or boycotting Israel, his administration is riddled with antisemites, and he even welcomed an anti-Israel activist to Gracie Mansion.  

And what has Riley done to stop Mamdani’s dangerous crusade? Absolutely nothing.

“Zohran Mamdani’s anti-Israel regime is a threat to our national security and the Jewish community. Instead of standing up to his dangerous, hateful agenda, Josh Riley is standing idly by. His inaction is disgraceful, unacceptable, and voters won’t forget it come November.” – NRCC Spokeswoman Maureen O’Toole
