And pleading ignorance on how the phrase is heard by Jews, at this point, strikes me as cynical and not done in good-faith. He's running for mayor of NYC, he's not a college student on campus hearing these slogans for the first time.

What evidence have you seen of his openness to outreach on this particular issue? I'm not saying it's not there, but doubling down on justifying the use of "globalizing the intifada" 18 months into this -- and after 3 anti-Jewish terror attacks in the diaspora -- makes me skeptical.

I'm tired of that too, but I guess I find myself to be equally or more exhausted by the continued dismissal/scoffing at/waving away of these concerns on the left (in part because it's the political "camp" I am aligned with). The whole thing is exhausting

and the outrage I feel over this stems from a desire to defend diaspora Jewish life in its multiplicity of expressions -even forms I might not personally like - and *not* out of some desire to defend Israel or its ghoulish government in any way.

It's fair to ask what kind of permission structure is being enabled by defending calls to "globalize the intifada" after 3 terrorist attacks against diaspora Jews,

The objection to Mamdani (I mean the rational, non-hysterical one) is not about going to the mats for Israel though, it's about going to the mats for *diaspora Jews* who feel a connection to Israel in any way whatsoever.
