NO. Zohran Mamdani Is Not A Threat To NYC Jewish Communities:

In response to recent attempts by Zionist organizations to influence the NYC Mayoral election by portraying Candidate Mamdani as a direct threat to the Jewish community, Torah Jews would like to clarify the following:

The Jewish communities in New York City, and across the United States, do not base their voting decisions on foreign interests, specifically those of the Israeli government. Our choices are guided solely by what we believe is best for our city, our country, and our Torah-observant lifestyle.

Zionist organizations and influencers are politicizing antisemitism, exploiting the name of American Jewry to promote their preferred political candidates. In doing so, they risk putting American Jews in danger by perpetuating the false notion that we are extensions or representatives of the State of Israel. These actions do not reflect the will, conscience, or values of the majority of Jewish voters.

We strongly oppose these divisive efforts to conflate the identity of Jewish New Yorkers with the State of Israel. Such actions misrepresent our true allegiance and undermine our fundamental Torah values.

May Hashem bring peace to the world, and may His glory reign supreme above all.

Rabbi Moshe Dovid Katz
Principal, Torah Jews
