The Curious Case of Zohran the "Hamasachurian Candidate" who, like a good Moslem hijacking NYC

Let me tell you about Zohran, not the fake puff pieces in NY Times, Vanity Fair and the rest of Fake media paid by his true owners. The Kwame, his revolutionary name and his grooming and upbringing and few anecdotes that can paint a real picture of the type of disaster he would be and the radicals involved.

While Zohran Mamdani campaigns as a champion of the working class and rails against privilege and inequality, a closer examination of his family background reveals a different story. The NYC mayoral candidate's parents—acclaimed filmmaker Mira Nair and Columbia University professor Mahmood Mamdani—represent precisely the kind of cosmopolitan elite that many Americans view with suspicion. Both have enjoyed privileged upbringings, elite educations, and careers funded by the very capitalist institutions their son claims to oppose, all while espousing controversial political views that blame America and defend terrorist violence.

Mahmood Mamdani: Defending Terrorism and Blaming America

Mahmood Mamdani, Zohran's father, is a Columbia University professor who has spent decades building a reputation as an anti-American academic who consistently excuses terrorism and violence when directed against Western interests. His most notorious statements appear in his 2004 book "Good Muslim, Bad Muslim: America, the Cold War, and the Roots of Terror," where he offers what many consider an apologia for suicide bombing.

"Suicide bombing needs to be understood as a feature of modern political violence rather than stigmatized as a mark of barbarism," Mamdani wrote. "We need to recognize the suicide bomber, first and foremost, as a category of soldier." This attempt to legitimize suicide bombers—many of whom have deliberately targeted civilian populations including women and children—sparked outrage when it resurfaced during his son's mayoral campaign.

Billionaire investor Bill Ackman seized on these statements, posting: "The apple @ZohranKMamdani doesn't fall far from the tree," warning that the younger Mamdani's policies would be "disastrous for all New Yorkers." The statement reveals a disturbing pattern: rather than condemning terrorism, the elder Mamdani consistently frames it as an understandable response to Western imperialism.

His involvement with anti-Israel organizations goes beyond mere academic inquiry. Mahmood Mamdani serves on the advisory council of the Gaza Tribunal, a London-based organization founded in 2024 that routinely accuses Israel of "genocide" and supports the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) movement. The tribunal's founder and several members have deep ties to anti-Israel movements, with at least one member having been deported from the United States due to terror connections.

Among Mamdani's fellow advisory council members is Jeremy Corbyn, the former UK Labour Party leader who faced suspension over antisemitism charges. A 2020 investigation by the Equality and Human Rights Commission found that Corbyn's Labour Party had unlawfully harassed and discriminated against Jewish people. Corbyn himself once referred to members of Hamas and Hezbollah as his "friends" during a parliamentary address.

Mahmood Mamdani's anti-American views extend well beyond the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. In panel discussions, he has controversially linked Abraham Lincoln to Nazi ideology, arguing that "the Nazi political project was shared by the Allies, and that political project was to turn Germany into a 'pure' nation." He has equated the Nuremberg Laws of Nazi Germany with American laws and accused the United States of inspiring the genocidal policies of the Third Reich.

His social media presence reveals a consistent pattern of anti-Israel and anti-Western sentiment. A Fox News review of his Twitter/X account found numerous posts critical of Israel, support for Palestinian "resistance," and praise for activists long criticized for antisemitic positions. During the pro-Palestine encampments at Columbia University following the October 7, 2023 Hamas massacre, Mahmood Mamdani was photographed wearing an orange vest and linking arms to physically block Jewish students—including economics student Avi Weinberg—from accessing campus areas.

Perhaps most disturbingly, Mamdani has consistently framed terrorism as America's fault. His scholarship emphasizes that to understand terrorism, one must examine "the link between state and non-state violence" rather than condemning it as barbarism. This moral relativism provides cover for those who target civilians, suggesting that American foreign policy justifies terrorist attacks against innocent Americans.

Mira Nair: Cultural Elitism and Anti-Israel Activism

Mira Nair, Zohran's mother, presents a different but equally revealing picture of elite privilege. The Oscar-nominated filmmaker has built her career on films that explore cultural identity, yet her own background exemplifies the kind of colonial-era privilege that modern progressives claim to oppose.

Born to a high-ranking Indian Administrative Service (IAS) officer, Amrit Lal Nair, Mira grew up at the very top of India's social hierarchy. Her grandfather had changed the family name from "Nayyar" to "Nair," presumably to curry favor with British colonial authorities. As the daughter of an IAS officer who helped establish India's government-owned steel industry—a position of immense power and prestige—Mira enjoyed a childhood of extraordinary privilege.

She attended Loreto Convent, Tara Hall, in Shimla, one of the most exclusive boarding schools in India. Shimla served as the summer capital of British India, where colonial officials retreated to escape the heat. Christian missionaries established elite boarding schools there to educate the children of the British Empire's ruling class. For an Indian family to send their daughter to such a school in the 1960s and 1970s represented the absolute pinnacle of social status.

From this rarefied background, Nair received a full scholarship to Harvard University, where she studied filmmaking. Her career has been extensively funded by the very institutions that progressive activists typically denounce. The Ford Foundation, Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, and George Soros's Open Society Foundations have all provided substantial financial support for her projects. Her Maisha Film Lab in East Africa operates with funding from these elite Western philanthropies.

Critics have noted the irony of Nair's career trajectory: she makes films about marginalized communities while depending on the largesse of billionaire-funded foundations. One analysis pointed out that she "makes movies for white people, not Indians," noting her tendency to present stereotypical portrayals that cater to Western audiences' expectations about South Asian culture.

Nair herself has made statements revealing her attitudes toward white people and Western society. During a 2023 masterclass, she declared: "I didn't want to be a cupcake. I didn't want to be like everyone else. I didn't want to make romcoms with white people. I was not interested in being in the A list of Hollywood." While positioning this as artistic integrity, the statement reveals a certain racial consciousness that would likely be condemned if expressed in reverse.

Like her husband, Mira Nair has embraced anti-Israel activism. In July 2013, she very publicly declined an invitation to attend the Haifa International Film Festival as "guest of honor," posting on social media: "I will go to Israel when the walls come down. I will go to Israel when occupation is gone...I will go to Israel when the state does not privilege one religion over another." She specifically called Israel an "apartheid state," using inflammatory language that many consider antisemitic.

This boycott of Israel came even as Nair maintained close relationships with Uganda, where her husband serves as chancellor of Kampala International University. Uganda's human rights record includes persecution of LGBTQ individuals and restrictions on press freedom, yet Nair has never publicly boycotted the country or refused opportunities there. The selective moral outrage reveals a double standard common among progressive elites.

Zohran's Pattern of Excusing Terrorism

Zohran Mamdani has a troubling pattern of making excuses for terrorists and blaming America for terrorism. His social media history reveals someone who consistently frames terrorist acts as understandable responses to U.S. policy rather than condemning them outright.

Most notably, in 2015, Zohran tweeted about Anwar al-Awlaki, the American-born al-Qaeda cleric who became one of the most dangerous terrorists in the world. Al-Awlaki inspired numerous terrorist attacks, including the Fort Hood shooting that killed 13 American soldiers and the attempted "underwear bombing" of a passenger jet. He also inspired the Boston Marathon bombers, who learned bomb-making techniques from al-Qaeda publications he helped produce.

Rather than condemning al-Awlaki as a terrorist who deliberately targeted Americans, Zohran blamed the FBI for his radicalization. In response to a New York Times article, Zohran wrote: "Why no proper interrogation of what it means for @FBI to have conducted extensive [surveillance] into #al-Awlaki's private life?" He promoted the narrative that FBI surveillance—which discovered al-Awlaki's use of prostitutes—pushed the cleric to flee America and join al-Qaeda in Yemen.

This revisionist history ignores the reality that al-Awlaki was already radicalized and had connections to multiple 9/11 hijackers. The FBI was conducting legitimate counterterrorism surveillance of a dangerous individual. Yet Zohran chose to frame the story as one where American law enforcement created a terrorist through overreach.

Former New York Congressman Peter King, who served on the House Intelligence Committee, told the New York Post that Zohran's comments were disqualifying: "Mamdani is making excuses and rationalizing al-Awlaki joining al Qaeda. It should disqualify Mamdani from being mayor of New York City." Jim McCaffrey, a retired FDNY lieutenant, called the statements "offensive to all New Yorkers and all Americans."

This pattern of excusing terrorism while blaming America fits with Zohran's broader ideology. Like his father, he consistently frames terrorist violence as a response to Western imperialism rather than as inexcusable attacks on innocent civilians. This moral relativism—inherited from his academic father and honed through years in progressive activist circles—represents a fundamental misunderstanding of terrorism's nature and a dangerous worldview for someone seeking to lead a city that suffered the worst terrorist attack in American history.

Mahmood Mamdani and Mira Nair represent a particular type of elite progressive: highly educated, internationally connected, financially comfortable individuals who advocate for radical politics while enjoying lives of considerable privilege. Mahmood's defense of suicide bombing, his sympathetic Al Jazeera coverage of the Muslim Brotherhood, and his consistent anti-American positions reveal an intellectual who has become so detached from common moral sense that he can rationalize the deliberate targeting of civilians. Mira's selective moral outrage—boycotting Israel while maintaining ties to Uganda—suggests political posturing rather than principled human rights advocacy.

Together, they raised Zohran in an environment where radical left-wing politics coexisted comfortably with upper-middle-class affluence. Their funding from elite foundations, prestigious academic positions, and international accolades demonstrates that opposing America and Western values can be quite lucrative when done from within elite institutions.

Zohran has absorbed and amplified his parents' worldview, blaming the FBI for creating al-Qaeda terrorists and consistently framing terrorism as America's fault. This intellectual inheritance—combined with elite privilege and socialist rhetoric—makes him particularly dangerous as a mayoral candidate for a city still healing from the wounds of 9/11.

As New Yorkers consider Zohran Mamdani's mayoral candidacy, they should remember that he is not a working-class hero but the son of the academic and cultural elite—people whose radical politics have never required them to sacrifice any of their own privilege or comfort. More troubling still, he represents a generation that has learned to excuse and rationalize terrorism while blaming America first.
