New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani says the US started the Iran war and can end it Mamdani called a post by the vice president ironic, saying he describes it as if he were describing another administration. He asked why, if they believed the war was part of the end of their political careers, they did not take actions to reflect this. He also said that people have risen up against those who waste money on war crimes and genocide instead of building schools.
