New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani is once again back in the news for what he has said. According to his latest interview, Mamdani has made it clear should he win Netanyahu is not welcome in the Big Apple. Netanyahu currently has an ICC warrant for his arrest for war crimes over the war in Gaza and his devastating actions that have led to profound loss in Gaza.

The comments come from an interview first published with the Times. In the interview, the Democratic socialist touched on a number of things but most notably Netanyahu. Mamdani’s path to potentially arrest Netanyahu would be thorny at best. In America, the jurisdiction of the International Criminal Court is not actually legally recognized — therefore a warrant in America means nothing. Generally speaking member states who recognize the ICC would be required to arrest Netanyahu should he travel into their countries.
