Recently, Ken Martin, chair of the Democrat National Committee, said this about New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani’s refusal to condemn the phrase “globalize the intifada”: “We win by bringing people into [our] coalition. And, at the end of the day, for me, that’s the type of party we’re going to lead. We are a big tent party.” Astute observers will note that Mr. Martin himself — though admitting he does not “agree 100% of the time” with other Democrats — fails to denounce the intifada, which is “a violent act of opposition by the Palestinian people to the Israeli occupation of the West Bank and Gaza strip.”
