Benjamin Netanyahu has compared Zohran Mamdani, New York’s socialist mayor, to Iran’s supreme leader on a campaign billboard.
The poster in central Tel Aviv, paid for by the Israeli prime minister’s Right-wing, nationalist Likud Party, placed Mr Mamdani alongside the leaders of Iran, Hezbollah and Turkey.
“They want Netanyahu to lose,” it reads above the faces of Mojtaba Khamenei, Mr Mamdani, Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, and Naim Qassem. “Don’t let them win,” it adds in Hebrew.
Mandan threatens Bibi with legal consequences for his real actions.
Bibi threatens Mamdani with death for unreal actions.
A genocidal fever has gripped Israel exactly akin to the Nazi movement, America’s Manifest Destiny period, Rwanda in the 90s, Cambodia in the 70s. It’s part of our human political weather at this point.
Why wreck the world over the latest round? These fuckers need to be tried publicly like Nuremberg. Humanity needs to learn about itself honestly. We’re apes with nukes, and we’re making mistakes.
