Fox’s Lawrence Jones Proclaims Zohran Mamdani Wants to ‘Eliminate’ Entire NYC Jewish Community
Fox News host Lawrence Jones has shockingly declared that New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani wants to “eliminate” the Big Apple’s Jewish community.
The stunning moment came Tuesday morning as the Fox & Friends crew discussed the NYC mayoral frontrunner and the possibility that Republican Curtis Sliwa can give Independent candidate Andrew Cuomo an edge by dropping out of the race.
The curvy couch, consisting of Jones, Brian Kilmeade, and Ainsley Earhardt, then propped up the notion that a Mamdani administration could pose a threat to Jews in New York, playing a clip of anti-Mamdani Rabbi Elliot Cosgrove, who has warned that a vote for Mamdani could mean danger to Jews.
“I believe Zohran Mamdani poses a danger to the security of the New York Jewish community, Rabbi Cosgrove said. “Mamdani’s refusal to condemn insightful slogans like ‘globalize the intifada,’ his denial of Israel’s legitmacy as a Jewish state, his calls to arrest Israel’s prime minister should he enter New York, and his thrice-repeated accusation of genocide in Thursday’s debate. For these and so many other statements past, present, and unrepentant, he is a danger to the Jewish body politic of New York City.”
“He’s 100 percent correct,” Jones said, invoking the recent photo of Mamdami with controversial Brooklyn imam Siraj Wahhaj, who has been accused of having involvement in the 1993 World Trade Center bombing.
Jones urged the Jewish community, where voters are reportedly split on Mamdani, to reject the Queens assemblyman.
“I would say to the rabbi, you have to go out there and talk with some of the Jews in New York,” Jones said. “Have you seen the polling that’s supporting Mamdani within the Jewish community? It is shocking to me. I can’t fight for you harder than you fight for yourself. He wants to eliminate your entire community. Doesn’t even believe in a Jewish state. Yet, he still has a lot of support within the community.”
A message seeking comment from the Mamdani campaign was not immediately returned on Tuesday.
