(Free Beacon) Socialist New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani repeatedly refused to say Hamas should disarm as part of the Trump-brokered ceasefire deal in Gaza, telling Fox News he does not “have opinions about the future” of the terrorist group.
Fox News host Martha MacCallum twice asked Mamdani whether Hamas “should lay down their weapons” and leave political leadership roles in Gaza, a crucial component of President Donald Trump’s peace plan. MacCallum noted that “Hamas is killing Palestinians inside Gaza” as part of a campaign of retribution against its critics in the strip.
“I don’t really have opinions about the future of Hamas and Israel beyond the question of justice and safety, and the fact that anything has to abide by international law,” said Mamdani. “And that applies to Hamas, that applies to the Israeli military.”
