Mamdani’s Win

Yes, I am fully aware of what happened in the recent elections and I’ve had many people ask me what I think they all mean. Overall, I have said in the past that the deep state isn’t about to go down without a fight and they will get more vocal and dig in where they have power. I was given a word about all of this back in February and God showed me they were like the false prophets of Baal:

In the original language this gushing of blood meant shedding of blood in a violent context often indicated judgment or divine retribution. In other words, judgment was coming for them. Many prophetic words pointed to something like this and these words have yet to be fulfilled, but those times are coming. I don’t know exactly how it will play out, but these tactics will come to an end. They’ve played this hand one too many times and the people are tired of it. Only those who support their agenda will enjoy it but more and more of them are leaving their camp. Their famine of power is only going to get drier and drier.

While those who are taking a victory lap after those election wins, there is a coming time of judgment and loss of power just ahead. You see, the way they lead and the causes they triumph will now be on full display for all to see. No more plans in smoke-filled rooms are needed. They really do think they are on the right side with their plans. But for us as believers and supporters of Israel, there is a bigger fight ahead and we need to realize it.

The Red-Green Alliance

In an article found in the Jewish News Syndicate we read about why we need to be concerned:

Zohran Mamdani’s victory in New York marks not only a political turning point for the city, but also a symbolic triumph for the Red-Green alliance that has been steadily taking shape across the West. This new coalition—of the radical left and the Islamist movement—has found fertile ground both in Europe and the United States.

It is succeeding in Europe right now and the Mayor-Elect of New York City is prime example of it here in America:

Yet in Europe, its impact is even greater, the result of years of confused immigration policies, moral relativism and the naive illusion that multiculturalism could exist without values. Mamdani represents the perfect embodiment of this alliance. His campaign was built on pro-Palestinian slogans and on the rejection of Israel’s legitimacy. He has succeeded where others have merely experimented—by turning anti-Zionism into a mainstream political banner.

Curiously, Mamdani got a sizable amount of the Jewish vote:

The shocking fact is that he won even a quarter of the Jewish vote in a city that, along with Jerusalem, holds the largest Jewish population in the world. That, more than anything, reveals how deep the moral disorientation has become. There are always Jews ready to go as sheep to the slaughter, convinced that universalism and tikkun olam (fixing the world) somehow mean denying their own peoplehood.

Europeans have seen it happen there, and now they see that the US is doing the same thing:

For European observers, this is a wake-up call. When a proudly Islamic mayor who refuses to call Hamas a terrorist organization can rise to power in America’s most Jewish city, it tells us that anti-Zionism has become the most fashionable form of antisemitism.

Fully Against Israel

Mamdani is dead set against all things Israel and he isn’t shy about it:

Mamdani’s first pledges say it all: he aims to sever New York’s cooperation with Israeli institutions, including the successful Cornell-Technion partnership that has fueled dozens of startups; to boycott the New York City–Israel Economic Council; and to divest from Israeli pension funds. He has not spoken of human rights, except when blaming Israel. He has never declared support for the Jewish state. On the contrary, he has praised and globalized the intifada against it.

His parents taught him well:

In his youthful arrogance, he seems to believe he can reshape the moral compass of the West. His lineage—as the son of a famous director who banned her own films from being screened at Jerusalem’s liberal Cinematheque—adds to his aura among the “chic” intelligentsia of the left who prefer rebellion to truth.

And his political power should not be overlooked:

Mamdani’s rise from campus activism, through founding Students for Justice in Palestine, to the mayor’s office of New York, shows how deeply the anti-Israel ideology has penetrated the cultural and political bloodstream of the West.

Jewish life in the Big Apple will shift and not in a good way:

The consequences will not be merely symbolic. Jewish life in New York will no longer resemble the witty, vibrant, self-confident world of Woody Allen and Seinfeld. The schools, the cultural institutions and the public sphere will now be influenced by a leadership that views Jews as dhimmi, tolerated but inferior, whose existence must be justified through endless apologies for Israel.

Antisemitism is fashionable again and as Christians who see Israel as the apple of God’s eye we need to ask God what we need to do next. The author of this article lays things out for us clearly:

Whether Mamdani will actually reduce rents or make buses free is irrelevant. What matters is that his rise will embolden a new generation of European politicians who have already noticed how effective antisemitic and anti-Zionist slogans can be in mobilizing crowds. They are learning fast that hatred of Israel is an easy ticket to power.

But this bus that Mamdani is driving is not free—not for democracy, not for freedom, and certainly not for the Jews who once made New York their proud home. It is heading toward a destination we have seen before in history. And this time, the ticket price could be the moral soul of the West itself.
