The @NYCMayor spoke out against the influence of AIPAC, as he speaks about the influence of all anti democratic and corporate lobbies opposing the will of voters.
Jonathan Greenblatt conflating Jews with AIPAC is what's fueling antisemitism here.

It's been three days since Mayor Mamdani took the stage to demonize and denigrate his Jewish constituents. I initially didn’t say anything because I felt certain he would retract his incendiary comments or at least explain them.
I was wrong.
This is the kind of bigoted conspiracy mongering that you expect from unhinged streamers or white supremacists. It’s not the language that we should expect from the mayor whose jurisdiction suffers from the highest levels of antisemitism of any city in America.
This is not a principled disagreement. This is prejudice pure and simple.
It is deliberate, dangerous and disgraceful.
