U.S. Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee launched a fierce attack on New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani, calling him antisemitic and accusing him of spreading false narratives about Israel. Appearing on Fox News, Huckabee expressed outrage over Mamdani's claims of "genocide" in Gaza, vehemently denying them. "I am boiling over his absurd responses. There is no genocide in Gaza, no apartheid, and no occupation!" Huckabee stated. He asserted that Israel's response was justified given the atrocities committed by Hamas, including beheadings, rape, and burning of the elderly, while emphasizing Israel's efforts to rescue hostages. Huckabee compared Mamdani's accusations to falsely blaming the U.S. for the 9/11 attacks and condemned his support for Hamas's narrative. "I am ashamed of New York for ever electing this man," Huckabee concluded, expressing hope that Mamdani would find a shred of truth within himself. The ambassador concluded with a strong show of support for Israel and a message against those who hate Israel within the American administration.
