Zohran Mamdani calls AIPAC 'monsters' in rally

Mamdani made his remarks at a rally headlined by Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) at Kings Theater in Brooklyn ahead of Tuesday’s Democratic primaries for progressive congressional candidates.

In a fiery 30-minute speech, Mamdani took aim not just at AIPAC but also Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his handling of the war in Gaza.

He claimed that “The monsters that we are up against, they take many different forms,” and then singled out AIPAC.

Sanders, for his part, doubled down on criticism of AIPAC when he took the stage.

“The American people understand that a large part of our horrific foreign policy is impacted by AIPAC funding,” he said.

Turning to the local races, Mamdani voiced support for Valdez for her opposition to Israel.

In a change of tone, Mamdani emphasized unity, including an appeal to Jewish voters. »
