Add The New York Post on Google The Issue: Demands by Rudy Giuliani and others for Mayor Mamdani to avoid the 9/11 ceremonies.
Former mayor of New York City Rudy Giuliani is right on the money in his criticism of Mayor Mamdani (“Zo’s ‘Rude’ Awakening,” Sept. 8).
While President Trump is going to war against the extremists in Iran, we are electing the same kind of fanatics to office back home.
The alliance between low-IQ socialists and the Islamic invaders threatens our very existence.
Mamdani’s presence at the 9/11 ceremony would be blasphemy.
But by my calculation, Mamdani would’ve been nine years old on the morning the Twin Towers were attacked.
Rudy Giuliani did a heck of a job at the time as “America’s mayor,” but I wonder if that gives him proprietary ownership of such a terrible event.
Mamdani, what part of “no” do you not understand?
And no, you’re not a friend of New York City or America.
Those of us who mourn friends murdered by Islamic terrorists on 9/11 cannot believe the evil insensitivity of Mamdani, who used an executive order ceremony to insult and demean the worst terrorist attack on America in history (“A ‘sign’ of Zo’s disdain,” Sept. 6).
Every single thing he does is a slap in the face to Americans who love this country and do not want his ilk to turn it into a communist hellhole.
I could say that a president who once tried to overturn the election shouldn’t show his traitor face at any 9/11 anniversary events, but I won’t.
Like President Trump, Mandami has something to say about terrorism, America and hate that will bring this country closer to choosing love, before he himself falls to his destiny.
As a Brooklyn-born native New Yorker and an American, I was deeply affected by Charles Gasparino’s moving tribute to 9/11 heroism as we honor the victims 25 years later (“9/11 outrage,” Sept. 6).
But then I realized to my shame that Gasparino shockingly omitted the real victim of 9/11: Mamdani the moron’s auntie, who was afraid to ride the subway in her hijab after 9/11.
The Issue: A Queens Jewish man wanting his wife’s accused killer charged with an antisemitic hate crime.
Discovering the accused driver of the crash that killed Cara Trager allegedly vandalized a Jewish bagel shop two times in the same heavily Jewish neighborhood before the fatal crash certainly gives one pause to believe the driver was looking to harm Jews (“A widower’s plea,” Sept. 5).
The crash didn’t take place in Harlem, Little Italy or on Atlantic Avenue in Brooklyn Heights.
Nor does it seem he has vandalized stores in those areas.
I wish Trager luck in having Dawood Faisal charged with an antisemitic hate crime.
One wonders what Dawood thought might happen as a result of his reckless driving.
He had to know that, just like his defacement of the bagel shop, it would cause fear and havoc.
He used his car as a weapon and set off a chain reaction that caused the death of a wonderful, beloved woman.
He should be charged with committing a hate crime against the Jews.
