NEW YORK (VINnews) — Mayor Zohran Mamdani plans to meet Monday with a select group of Charedi Jewish leaders who previously endorsed him, in a session critics say is largely a “photo op.” Mainstream Jewish organizations, including the Anti-Defamation League and the Jewish Community Relations Council, said they were not invited and expressed frustration over the brief, 15- to 20-minute sit-down, citing concerns about Mamdani and his wife’s handling of anti-Israel rhetoric.

Rabbi Moshe Indig, a leader of a Satmar sect in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, told the New York Post on Sunday that he will attend the meeting. Rabbi David Niederman, president of the United Jewish Organization of Williamsburg, is also expected. Both represent the Orthodox community, while broader advocacy groups have declined participation.
The meeting comes after widespread criticism of Mamdani hosting anti-Israel activist Mahmoud Khalil at Gracie Mansion last week and scrutiny of posts liked by his wife, Rama Duwaji, on social media celebrating the Oct. 7 terror attacks in Israel.
Follow the money!!

He is a cockroach
They need the housing vouchers to be continued and expanded!
They DO NOT represent the orthodox community. They represent the limited Satmar community. There is a huuuuge difference.

Just an idiot
Emachshemoi
Since they’re inviting Satmar Rabbanim did they also invite HaRav Abby Stein?
I would pay to see R’ Stein seated between Rabbis Indig & Niederman & the beauty of it is they can’t use the “I can’t sit next to a woman excuse.”
Traitor Shame on You! Der Rebbe Reb Yoel Z’L would never allow this. Shame on You #Traitor
We are stuck for four years.
No different than many Charedi parties in Israel. They will join any coalition as long as they get money
As Shimon Peres once stated, “You make peace with your enemies, and not with your friends”.
Jewish traitors
Shame
Rabbi Indig does represent ANYONE but himself as the Satmar, as a FACT, voted overwhelming against Mamdani. See the election map. The Satmar are a fringe regilous group that represents noone, and Indig is frnge of the fringe. Mamdani needs to be resisted.

Well, there’s Teitelbaums (Date Palm Trees) and then there’s KAPOS temarim.
So sad that these guys sully that special historic special Kehilla.
What do we have to gain by bashing him? He’s not going to get any better if we fight him, the only way forward is to talk to him.
Focus on what we are trying to accomplish, we’ll get a lot further.
Kudos to them for meeting with the Mayor. We live here we depend on the city and we are obligated to pray for his success. Jews should be concerned to live in peace and harmony with the government they reside in. If Mamdani has a bed word on Jews in London,Israel,Canada and he shows respect for Jews in NYC should we scream on him Antisemite? Zionist tactic and we will in no way drag Israeli politicas in our life.
they have satmar das torah guiding them and a straight way to gehinom to question them
