Outgoing New York City Mayor Eric Adams<\/a> warned Jewish New Yorkers about the city’s incoming democratic socialist Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani<\/a> during a fireside chat at a Combat Antisemitism Movement (CAM) event in Tel Aviv on Sunday.<\/p>\n

Adams cautioned that “everything is not fine” for Jewish New Yorkers following Mamdani\u2019s win and expressed concern about their safety and well-being.<\/p>\n

The outgoing mayor began a multiday visit to Israel on Friday, meeting with political leaders and visiting sites related to the Oct. 7, 2023, Hamas terror attack. Adams was honored for his efforts in combating rising antisemitism at the CAM summit in Tel Aviv on Sunday.<\/p>\n

NYC Mayor Eric Adams warned that “everything is not fine” for Jewish New Yorkers following Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani\u2019s win.<\/p>\n

When asked about the safety of Jews living in the city after Mamdani takes office in 2026, Adams responded<\/a>: “We need to be honest about the moment and cannot sugarcoat it. The New York Jewish community must prepare themselves. This is a period where you need to be conscious about the level of global hostility towards the Jewish community. If I were a Jewish New Yorker, I would be concerned about my children.”<\/p>\n

Pressed again, Adams repeated his warning, telling the audience: “Everything is not fine. If you say everything is fine, you are setting yourself up for failure.”<\/p>\n

Adams, who ran for a second term in 2025 as an independent under the “End Antisemitism” line, discussed the sharp rise of antisemitism<\/a> and its growing social acceptance \u2014 particularly among younger people.<\/p>\n

The outgoing mayor warned that “It is now cool and hip to be antisemitic,” and that an entire generation has been “hijacked” via social media.<\/p>\n

“They hijacked our young people. Their plan was well executed. Now we need a professional plan to fight back,” he asserted.<\/p>\n

On the Israeli side, Adams argued that supporters had not effectively countered the anti-Israel camp\u2019s emotional appeals, which relied on images from war-torn Gaza. He added that “the Zohrans of the world” had helped fuel rising anger toward Israel.<\/p>\n

Adams also called out “Queers for Palestine” protesters, arguing that the group’s premise makes no sense because “the only place you can walk around in the Middle East being queer is Israel.”<\/p>\n

He similarly went after the “Free Palestine” movement, alleging that the movement “was never about the land,” but rather the “the destruction and eradication of Jewish people.”<\/p>\n

Drawing a parallel to his own community, Adams asked: “If this were happening to the African-American community, you would not be silent. So why are others silent now?”<\/p>\n

Closing his remarks at the CAM event, Adams assured the audience that although he may be leaving office, he would not stop fighting for the Jewish community.<\/p>\n

“I\u2019m not just the mayor that\u2019s leaving office; I\u2019m your brother. And we will continue to stand side-by-side with you because you were there for our community time and time again, and I’m going to be here for your community,” he pledged.<\/p>\n

Mamdani\u2019s office did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital\u2019s request for comment.<\/p>\n
