The Arrest That Wasn't: Netanyahu's Slippery Escape from Justice New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani's video statement initially suggested that justice would be served when it came to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
Citing the International Criminal Court's (ICC) arrest warrant, Mamdani seemed to imply that New York City would attempt to take Netanyahu into custody.
However, he later clarified that the city lacks the authority to do so. This about face has left many wondering what motivated Mamdani to make such a declaration in the first place.
