New York Mayor Slams Pro-Israel Lobby AIPAC Amidst Gaza Conflict

According to the International Desk of Webangah News Agency, Mehr News Agency, citing RT, New York City Mayor Eric Adams has intensified his strong criticism of the pro-Israel lobby group, the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC). “We are talking about a situation where children are killed daily,” Adams stated, referencing reports that over a thousand Palestinians have lost their lives to the Israeli army since the so-called ceasefire.

Adams elaborated on his concerns, describing AIPAC as an organization that perpetuates these conditions and obstructs efforts to ensure the safety of people not only in Palestine but across many regions globally. He characterized the ongoing situation as unethical and unacceptable.

The mayor further alleged that such support is typically channeled through direct financial contributions, citing examples observed in New York. These funds, he indicated, originate from entities like the American Israel Public Affairs Committee and other front organizations. Adams asserted that the names of individuals responsible for the extensive death and destruction should be disclosed.

Previously, Adams had also referred to AIPAC members as “barbaric.”.
