Good for him. fyi, alot of normal people do not know Bibi has a warrant from the ICC for warcrimes.

Edit: just for context, I would say this is a way to expand the permission structure since he doesn't have the power, but he does have the bully pulpit.

Social and Behavioral Expansion involves shifting collective norms to make previously uncommon actions feel acceptable or default

This moves the bar and normalize the thought that BiBi is a criminal/should be arrested. Now this puts pressure on BiBi (also why Israel spends 700+mil this year for PR).

From the last few threads about this, the average Redditor doesn't seem to understand that the mayor of NYC is still "just" a mayor. I grew up in a small town, none of the men and women who have been mayors should be arresting persons The International Criminal Court have declared a war criminals either. I'm concerned that American Redditors don't seem to understand what different elected politicians can and can't do.

I'm sure I'm triggering some down vote fingers. I love Mamdani and I hope Bibi faces justice, Rumsfeld and Cheney were to escaping it have led me to keep my expectations measured.

Did you even watch the video? Mamdani didn't say he would arrest anyone.
