This seems like the kind of ridiculous purity test that divides potential coalitions. He’s got a ton of Jews and Muslims in his district but he was speaking out against aid to Israel before it was cool.
How would/did you vote differently? And other than what it means for how he serves his very divided constituents, why does the nuance of his position on Zionism matter here?
I genuinely question the intent of both comments you’ve made in this thread.
they are a “liberal” zionist who is for conditioning aid to israel but I for don’t trust that if Israel stops actively invading and returns to status quo where they are still occupying and slowly ethnically cleansing the west bank, gaza, syria, southern lebanon it seems to me he would support giving them aid. He also with that believes in Israel’s existence and thus legitimizes a settler colonial outpost.
Good. Right?
Seems so, Lander is more progressive and was supported by Mamdani
Brad Lander is a boss hog. If it wasn’t going to be Zohran, it needed to be Brad. They cross endorsed.
Brad sucks sorry but he’s a self professed zionist for example.

Ahh fuck really? I thought they were 100% against funding aid to Israel?

I thought that you should never cross endorsements.
In ranked choice in a crowded field, why wouldn’t you?
He was arrested last year protecting victims of ICE so I would say so.
