Zohran Mamdani was sworn in as New York City mayor on Jan. 1, 2026, becoming the city’s first Muslim mayor. In the weeks around the inauguration, he held outreach meetings with Jewish leaders amid anxiety about antisemitism, while the Anti-Defamation League faced criticism from some commentators for creating a “Mamdani Watch” effort focused on his political circle.
Membri del collettivo Juives et juifs révolutionnaires criticano in un editoriale su Le Monde un disegno di legge volto a combattere le nuove forme di antisemitismo, accusandolo di confondere antisemitismo e antisionismo. Sostengono che questa misura indebolisce la lotta contro l’antisemitismo contrapponendo la solidarietà con i palestinesi alla condanna di atti razzisti. Auspicano una forte risposta sociale anziché una politica repressiva.

More than 200 cultural figures, including actors, writers, and musicians, have signed a petition calling for the release of Marwan Barghouti, a jailed Palestinian leader often likened by supporters to Nelson Mandela. Barghouti is serving five life sentences plus 40 years after an Israeli court convicted him in 2004 over deadly attacks during the Second Intifada; critics say portraying him chiefly as a political prisoner obscures his murder convictions and the victims of those attacks.
