Best not to make such decision public. See whether Netanyahu is willing to gamble.
Seems like that’s the point. If they tell him they will arrest him he might not come at all
But if he only leaves it “undecided” then Netanyahu will probably chicken out while Mamdani won’t be providing ammo for the (US funded) Zionist Israel lobby.
That would, unfortunately, be a big stretch.
Oh, come on! Don’t say it out loud! Just prepare quietly. Subrepciously redirect him to a Jet charted to go straight to the Hague. And I don’t mean the nearest airport. I mean landing right by the freaking door of the International Court.
Based
Owaowbased
In a city of billionaires, Mamdani is not owned, which is why they’re all so scared of him: the powers that be can’t control him, and they can’t even predict him.
Which is exactly what makes this so based. Mamdani IS the mayor of NYC. He could make Bibi’s arrival in his city a little slice of hell in all manner of ways, many of which would break no law at all, and many New Yorkers would be thrilled to do their part.
But will he? No one knows. And that’s the beauty of it. We all know he’s thinking about it now.
So whether this pans out in reality or not, it’s always good policy to make a motherfucker watch his own back. Mamdani just turned Bibi into a motherfucker with a back that needs watching in NYC.
New England loves taking down tyrants. It’s kind of our whole thing 😉
Loving the recent “New York is a part of New England” trend.
A joint northeastern political identity will help with soft balkanization.
I thought your whole thing was some of the best chowder in the world?
I thought their whole thing was being massively racist…
Aww two Confederate sympathizers downvoted you.
It may be he’s just bluffing to keep Netenyahu out of the city.
It’s not a good look for Mamdani to let him in the city while doing nothing about it (or even being forced to provide security for him), but actually arresting him might cause a small civil war.
fucking BASED. This guy is amazing.
Americas Mayor.
But not America’s President. This is way out of his lane.
Would be a shame if a “malfunctioning” “AI” air traffic controller directed his plane into a tanker truck “mistakenly” left on the runway.
It’s crazy but in current day USA people will go “Oh yeah, that’s just something that happens sometimes.”
As much as I’d like to see it, it’s just posturing. Congress has explicitly stated that state and local LEOs cannot recognize or enforce ICC warrants.
ah, yes, congress, famously known for upholding the law and morality of late
Fucking do it anyway
Let him sit in Riker’s while the case drags though the courts. Probably take at least a couple of years before SCOTUS forces his release. He deserves a lot more than 2 years in prison, but it’s better than nothing.
Its not like Trump listens to congress or rules.
True. I don’t think that gives Mamdani license to do the same.
I appreciate when my leaders use their power to arrest war-criminals. It makes the world a safer place
It’s been a LONG time since you’ve felt that appreciation.
Yeah why does USA not want international law? The U.S. has never ratified the ICC because why would they give up the freedom to do what they want… USA does not recognize the jurisdiction of the ICC. The 2002 American Service-Members’ Protection Act (ASPA) literally states that the U.S. will attempt to protect U.S. military personnel and other citizens from ICC persecution, even with military action if necessary. That bill was nicknamed “The Hague Invasion Act” because in theory it authorizes the president to use force to free Americans from ICC prison. They even go as far as using big tech to blackmail members of the ICC that investigate war crimes of the US military (or Israel). crazy.
What a coincidence! In my household we just went to the bat store yesterday to purchase celebratory bats in case Netanyahu came to visit us! The kids go some heavy gauge plastic ones. I, on the other hand, found a nice, hefty aluminum one with heavy embossing. It has a lot of sharp edges and features that could help turn things around.
In my opinion you need solid ash for a good baseball bat. Aluminum ones can dent when hitting…uh…baseballs too hard.
That’s a funny way of spelling concrete filling. But my strike rate will drop with mass. That’s just physics. What to do? Welded Winter tire studs? 3" screws from one end to the other? It’s getting complicated. Ash sounds like a much simpler solution.
Just roll up on him like the US marshals did yesterday to the Tate brothers.
Still kind of surprised that happened.
There’s also the Luigi route.
That is not a good route for foreign leaders.
We need to just cut them off from financial & military aid and that situation will work itself out.
