Behind Mamdani's Revolutionary "Red-Green" Victory over New York City
(Jerusalem Center for Security and Foreign Affairs) Dr. Dan Diker - Zohran Mamdani's election as New York City's mayor holds far-reaching implications for the U.S., Israel, and Western democracies. Mamdani represents a hybrid "Red-Green" political alignment, integrating revolutionary Marxist ideology with Islamist terminology and anti-Zionist positions. Mamdani has promoted the elimination of the Jewish state and founded his college's Students for Justice in Palestine chapter. Mamdani has documented connections to individuals associated with Samidoun, designated by the U.S. government as a front organization for the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP). New York City now serves as a case study testing whether Red-Green ideological frameworks can transform American urban governance. The writer is President of the Jerusalem Center.
