The discussion opens with Speaker 0 noting that the first foreign visit by a New York City mayor is significant and asks where each candidate would go first. Speaker 1 (Cuomo) replies, “First visit, I would visit The Holy Land.” Speaker 2, addressing hostility and antisemitism in New York, adds, “Given the hostility and the antisemitism that has been shown in New York, I would go to Israel.” Speaker 0 then directs the question to Speaker 2 (Tilson). Tilson responds, “Yeah. I’d make my fourth trip to Israel followed by my fifth trip to Ukraine, two of our greatest allies fighting on the front lines of the global war on terror.” Speaker 0 moves to Speaker 3 (Mamdani), who says, “I would stay in New York City. My plans are to address New Yorkers across the five boroughs and focus on that.” Speaker 4 interjects with a follow-up to Mamdani: “Mister Mamdani, can I just jump in? Would you visit Israel… as mayor?” Mamdani answers that as mayor, “I'll be doing as the mayor, I'll be standing up for Jewish New Yorkers, I'll be meeting them wherever they are across the five boroughs, whether that's in their synagogues and temples or at their homes or at the subway platform because, ultimately, we need to focus on delivering on their concerns.” The conversation then covers a direct question: “And just yes or no, do you believe in a Jewish state of Israel?” Mamdani replies, “I believe Israel has the right to exist.” Speaker 4 counters, “Not Israel. State?” Mamdani responds, “Notice. As a state with equal rights.” Speaker 1 presses Mamdani further, noting, “He won't he won't say it has a right to exist.

But” before the excerpt ends.

I was raised by my great grandmother, a Holocaust survivor who lost her entire extended family. She never supported the State of Israel because she believed it was wrong to inflict on others what was done to the Jewish people. She saw the state and the Zionists as becoming what they had once fought against. As a woman raised Jewish, it's unpopular for me to say this, but I no longer believe in the faith. However, the Jewish people are still my family.

I grew up around Jewish people and went to Hebrew preschool. People often assume I'm Jewish because of my name. I visited Israel when I was 13 and have connections to Jewish culture.

If I were Jewish, I would support Zionism. However, my father made it clear that being Jewish is not a requirement to be a Zionist. Israel plays a crucial role in ensuring the safety of Jews all over the world.

The speaker argues that American Jews are wrestling with a category they inherited from our European ancestors about 250 years ago. As Jews moved into modern nation-states and pursued secular jobs and secular education, they reimagined Judaism to fit in. Judaism was transformed into something like a Protestant-style religion: a framework that worked well for a long period, enabling Jews to participate in broader society. The speaker emphasizes that Jews are not merely a religion, nor are we a race or ethnicity. Instead, Jews are a nation, civilization, tribe, peoplehood, and above all, a family. Therefore, a young person in America who thinks Judaism is simply a Protestant religion risks viewing the 7,000,000 Jews in Israel as merely co-religionists. If that is the lens, the natural question becomes: what do you owe to them? It would be like telling a mainline, very progressive Protestant in Berkeley, California that they must care about a Pentecostal in Brazil. In that framing, it doesn’t make sense, because it’s a category error. The speaker clarifies that the people in Israel are not merely co-religionists; they are siblings. The danger lies in thinking of Israel's Jewish population primarily through the lens of shared religious practice. When that happens, there is a risk of sliding into anti-Zionism, because the fundamental, personal connection to Israel—as siblings within a broader Jewish family—gets diminished or lost if Israel is reduced to a subset of co-religionists who share a particular religious outlook or social-justice framework. Key contrasts highlighted include the historical adaptation that treated Judaism as a Protestant-style religion to fit into secular, modern-state life, versus the present understanding that Jewish identity encompasses nationhood, civilization, and family ties. The speaker suggests that recognizing Israel as part of a family, not just a co-religionist community, is essential to maintaining connections that are not solely defined by theological agreement or social-justice alignment but by a broader shared Jewish peoplehood.

I have strong ties to Israel, rooted in my Jewish background. My family fled pogroms in Eastern Europe, and my grandfather's name is Israel. I grew up attending Sunday school as a reformed Jew. I deeply care about Israel's future and do not want to see it harmed.

I feel a deep connection to the state of Israel and want to become a citizen. I have nothing to offer except my support. I understand the challenges faced by the Jewish people, but I believe it is important to stand with them. I don't expect any special treatment, but I want to align myself with those who fight for the right to live. My desire for dual citizenship comes from a belief in doing what is right. I visited Auschwitz with my children and told them that understanding Israel requires knowledge of the Bible and the Holocaust. May Israel always be a symbol of hope, resilience, and the human spirit.
