New York City Mayor Zoran Mamdani tweets with all his audacity on October 7:

🔴 This day is deeply painful for so many New Yorkers. It marks three years since the horrific war crimes of October 7. That day, Hamas killed more than 1,100 Israelis and kidnapped 251 others. We mourn alongside our many friends and neighbors who still bear this unimaginable loss.

🔴 The suffering neither began nor ended that day. It continues instead through the Israeli government's ongoing and oppressive genocide in Gaza, where it has killed more than 74,000 Palestinians – including more than 21,000 children. Even since the mock "ceasefire", more than 1,400 Palestinians have been killed. This suffering has intensified with every Israeli bomb dropped on ambulances waiting outside hospitals, every drone attack targeting a residential building or a journalist, and every food aid shipment denied at a border crossing. Many New Yorkers face this unbearable sorrow, and we grieve alongside them – all knowing that our dollars fund these war crimes. 🔴 Three years later, we must refuse to accept a world where occupation and apartheid continue, where war crimes are met with impunity, and our federal government continues its complicity with every arms shipment.

🔴 In honor of the dead, we must fight for a world where every person can live in freedom, security and dignity.
