Maybe he thinks if he tells the police they aren't racist, they will do this?

Objectively cool thing to say but he would never actually do this because they would definitely kill him for it, assuming the cops even followed this order to begin with, which they absolutely would not

    Surely Netanyahu will just not go to NYC right?

    I think Bibi knows the federal government is so totally dominated by Zionism that they will rapidly free him even imagining he was apprehended, allowing him to look like a martyr without anything bad actually happening to them. Or the NYPD refuses and he makes Mamdani look even more pathetic than in the previous scenario. He's totally making a trip if Mamdani wins.

    NYPD has 'counterterrorism officers' stationed across the globe. Looks like one is supposed to be in Tel Aviv. I wonder how his day is going

    1. The NYPD will not comply and will actively undermine his entire stint in office.

    2. Even if they were to comply, the feds will find a way to release him.

    3. The feds will 100% try to off him for doing it.

    And this is all assuming Mamdani is sincere here and is not just doing a populist gesture that he will immediately backtrack once in power.

    if the nypc can't be stopped from running over protestors what makes him think they'll follow his order to arrest netenyahu? still even if they arrest will do nothing, he's just a guy, the genocide has been happening for more than 80 years

    Lmao I’m sorry but this is clearly just to win favors with his base because this is not going to happen if he doesn’t reform the NYPD.

    This only means anything if he 100% vocally commits to arresting him or any indicted israeli who comes to NYC for UN shit

    Someone on his staff must've had a TALK with him about the apology tour he was pulling

    Let's see if it's actaully corrected

    Yeah, he's just restating it now to try and slap a bandaid on the cracks in the dam of his persona/campaign he's spent the last week or two making with a pickaxe.

    Mamdani is suprisingly good. I did not expect it from politics in 2025.
