NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani criticizes AIPAC over Israel-Palestine conflict

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani criticized the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) for its influence in politics, stating it supports a “status quo for immorality” in Palestine and the wider region. His remarks followed AIPAC’s significant financial contributions to pro-Israel candidates during the New York primary elections. Mamdani’s comments have drawn backlash, with New Jersey Representative Josh Gottheimer accusing him of promoting antisemitism. AIPAC’s super PAC recently contributed over $600,000 to support incumbent Adriano Espaillat in the congressional race.
