He just can't help himself. But pretty shameful even for New York City's Mayor Zohran Mamdani with his October 7th "Commemoration." Even on this sacred day; he devotes 3/4 of his "October 7th" post to what Israel has done to the Palestinians and on "Apartheid", "occupation" and "war crimes."

The constant rush to defend or deny or excuse terrorists acts; to blame Israel in one form or another; and to then believe in all sorts of conspiratorial allegations accusing Israel with the most bizarre claims. Throw in the claims that something which obviously did happen; couldn't have happened
