New York Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani vowed again this week to arrest Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Netanyahu should expose the weakness and dishonesty behind that threat by accepting the invitations of New York’s Jewish leaders to attend Mamdani’s inauguration. If Mamdani wants to open his term with an unlawful international incident, let him. The clarity would be invaluable.

Mamdani first pledged to use the New York City Police Department to arrest Netanyahu in September, two years after he said the NYPD “boot on your neck is laced by the IDF.” Mamdani, who has echoed Hamas’s call to “globalize the intifada,” said Netanyahu is a “war criminal” who has committed “genocide” in Gaza.
