Here's Larry MINTI.
Speaker 1 (00:08):
Welcome to Saturday Morning. On this week's show, Eric Adams
was in Israel for the week, and ABC News correspondent
Jordana Miller says he was treated like a rock star. Jordana,
I'm interested when Mayor Adams is there to visit. Of course,
it's big news here in New York. Is it big
news in Israel?
Speaker 2 (00:27):
It is. I have to say, he's being treated like
a rock star. Wow, he met with us. Yeah, as
you said, he met with the Israeli Prime Minister. He
met with the President of Israel, Isaac Hertzog. He met
as well with the Foreign Minister Guidon Saar. I mean,
you know, making the rounds, if you will, and really
(00:49):
just everyone heaping a lot of praise and gratitude on him.
I mean for Israelis and for some Jews. The election
of Mom Danny has said, off alarm bells, and now
it's you know, I think the leadership here in Israel
is feeling grateful that they had Adams, who, as you know,
(01:10):
has been a very big supporter of Israel. He came
to visit here in Israel in the you know, in
the first weeks after Hamas's deadly attack on October seventh,
he has been vocal in his fight, indeed and in
word and indeed against anti Semitism. And that's something that's
(01:34):
been highlighted here and we're hearing, you know, over and
over again each leader say here, you know that Mayor
Adams is a is a true friend of Israel.
Speaker 1 (01:44):
Well for a day, and it really did last I
don't know, I'm not even sure if it was a
full day. For a day, it seemed like zorin Mom
Donnie was backing off of his pledge to arrest Benjamin
net Yahoo if he ever came to New York. But
in a couple of their interviews there he was again saying,
I'm going to enforce international law. And so if Netna
(02:07):
who comes, I have to enforce international law, which seems
to many is going to arrest him. Has did that
come up? And has Benjamin Netanya who addressed that?
Speaker 2 (02:17):
So, first of all, with all due respect to Mom Danny,
I mean, you're you know, he is now the mayor
of New York City. He should definitely check the facts
before he speaks. It's now he's in a position, you know,
of responsibility. Right, he's not a candidate. The United States
is not party to the International Criminal Court. They are
(02:41):
not under any obligation to implement the rulings of the
International Criminal Court. It doesn't apply to the United States.
Natagnell can go to New York, to every borough, to
every state in America and and no, nobody has a
there's no authority to arrest the Israeli Prime minister. Now
(03:02):
maybe that was a great line when he was running
for mayor of New York City, but I would suggest
he shelf it, you know, because it makes him sound
like he's not that informed on you know, what the
International Criminal Court is.
Speaker 1 (03:17):
Yeah, No, he keeps saying it. He keeps saying that
he's going to do it, and that he's going to inforce.
Speaker 2 (03:23):
And by the way, this is the problem people have
with Mom Dunny. Right, you need to be clear about
what the facts are when someone asks you about HAMAS, Right,
you should, without blinking an eye, you should absolutely reject
what HAMAS stands for. They don't represent the Palestinian people.
They are a terrorist organization. Right. You know, no any
(03:49):
American campus, let alone the top campuses in America should
be waving a Hamas flag, right, That's like waving an
isis flag. Right. So Mam Donnie needs I think he's
going to have to try to, you know, get a
hold of his rhetoric and try to stay you know,
in reality and really, you know, not not actually tap
(04:14):
into people's worst fears, whether you're a Jew or not.
Speaker 1 (04:18):
Well, he's already said he's not going to march in
the Israeli Day Parade, and he also has come out
and said several times when he's been asked he will,
he refuses to call Israel a Jewish state. So I
don't think any of the I don't think things are
going to change overnight with how he feels about Israel
(04:38):
and the people of New York City elected him. It's
a it is a frightening situation for Jews that live
in New York because many of them have been very
vocal saying they don't feel protected by this man.
Speaker 2 (04:52):
I mean, I hope that Mamdani turns out to, you know,
be a terrific mayor in New York City. I hope
that he represents, represent and protects all of New York,
all of the residents of New York City, right, no
matter what color or creed right that they are, or religion. So,
(05:12):
you know, Mamdani now again is in a position of
responsibility and he really needs to be careful with the
words he uses. You know. Everybody, uh, you know that
is part of the progressive movement is very interested and
supports an ultimate you know, Palestinian state that's led by
(05:35):
the Palestinians that hopefully will be democratic. Right. What Mamdani
doesn't understand is that when people call Israel a Jewish state,
it's because it is a place that has historical connections
for Jews, and Jews see themselves as a people in
the same sense that Palestinians see themselves as a people,
or the Indians right, or any ethnic group. So, you know,
(05:59):
I would suggest me, Mom, Donnie, do what others have
done in the past, and that is, you know, find
someone to maybe get a tutorial, really an in depth
tutorial on Jewish Jewish identity Israel, right, because it's clear
he doesn't quite understand things.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
Yeah, I don't think he's going to do that, but
your Danna, that is a wonderful thought. I look forward
to talking to you again, especially as Zorain mom. Donnie
starts to after getting sworn in as he's mayor. ABC

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
