Comrade Zoh, emboldened by the polls that indicate he is maintaining his double-digit lead over former NY Governor Andrew Cuomo a mere two weeks before Election Day, has upped his game. Now, he is actually flaunting his communist, pro-Islamic, anti-American, anti-Israel, antisemitic proclivities. Rather than hiding or even downplaying the foregoing he is doing just the opposite. He is making no secret of his affiliation with or even affection for Imam Siraj Wahhaj. Zoh has characterized Wahhaj as “one of the nation’s foremost Muslim leaders.” Recently, a smiling photograph of the two along with NYC Councilman Yusef was widely published in various media outlets including the NY Post. Their relationship is now out there for all to see. Comments can be “spun” or “walked back” but not a photograph.
Wahhaj is a prominent and influential African American imam in New York City with deep, significant and longstanding ties to Islamic terrorism. He is the head of the Masjid At-Taqwa mosque in Brooklyn and is a co-founder of the Muslim Alliance in North America. He is an Islamic extremist, an antisemite and a homophobe who has uttered many slurs against Jews and gays. With respect to gays and sex, he adheres to the Prophet Mohammad’s dictum that both “the one who does it and the one it is done to” should be killed.
Moreover, he is an unindicted co-conspirator of the 1993 WTC attack in which terrorists detonated a truck bomb in the North Tower’s parking garage that killed six people plus one unborn child and injured more than 1,000 others. In my view this attack was a precursor to the 9/11/01 attack on the WTC. He provided a character reference for El Sayyid Nosair, who assassinated Rabbi Meir Kahane. He has been accused of making anti-American and anti-LGBTQ comments and is reportedly an advocate for stricter Islamic law.
This is not the type of person with whom a candidate for NYC mayor should be photographed, unless he is so confident of victory that he feels it won’t matter. This may, in fact, be the case. This “in your face” photograph has triggered significant backlash from critics and political rivals, such as Andrew Cuomo and Curtis Sliwa. President Donald Trump has also weighed in characterizing it as “a disaster waiting to happen.” Of course, those who have been paying attention are not surprised. They see it as yet another affirmation of Zoh’s personal and political leanings.
Conclusion
In my opinion the gaslighting of NYC voters has been so thorough that the controversial photograph is unlikely to dissuade them from voting for Zoh in the election. The Kool-Aide drinkers that support him have made up their minds. They view him as a savior who will improve their lives with free stuff paid for with other people’s money.
Some are hoping that Curtis Sliwa will drop out of the race in which case the polls predict the race would tighten considerably, but he has continually denied he has plans to do so. The other hope is for a low turnout, but Zoh’s zealots are the type of voters who would tromp through a blizzard to vote for him. In my view we should all steel ourselves for a communist mayor and hope he doesn’t do permanent damage to NYC.
