    Even if that assumption were correct, the mayor of NYC cannot meaningfully aid or hinder Israel’s actions. A politician’s position on an issue far outside the scope of the office they’re seeking doesn’t usually influence my vote.

      The oligarchs can’t win on the merits of their policies, so they desperately resort to identity politics to try to divide us.

      There might be some things the mayor could do, like joining boycotts, etc.

      Certainly he can stop or interfere with the crackdown on pro-palestinian dissent in the city which has been extreme under Adams and Trump.
