Ever wonder what would happen if local politics collided with international law over appetizers at the U.N. General Assembly? Yeah—me too, but apparently, New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani just grabbed his ethical megaphone and called for the federal government to execute the ICC’s arrest warrant for Benjamin Netanyahu right here on American soil. It’s like Law & Order: SVU, except nobody’s really sure if they have jurisdiction, and the stakes are—well, let’s say slightly higher than missing bagels from a city council breakfast .

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani called on the federal government to execute the International Criminal Court’s arrest warrant for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu while he attends the U.N.

“Sounds reasonable, but I’d just clear it with Netanyahu first.”

Jacqui Chawner, Patent Denier
