Our preening mayor, Zohran Mamdani, says his administration\u2019s legal department is examining how best to arrest Benjamin Netanyahu if the Israeli prime minister visits New York for UN week in September.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s a war criminal who has been charged by the International Criminal Court,\u201d Mamdani told The New York Times in an interview published over the weekend.<\/p>\n

Well, Marco Rubio has thoughts on that and much more.<\/p>\n

The formidable secretary of state last week announced a campaign to \u201cdismantle the ICC \u2014 brick by brick, if necessary.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe ICC\u2019s interfering with American military and law enforcement operations .\u2009.\u2009. would mean the death of the US as a sovereign and independent nation,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut this is America .\u2009.\u2009. Independence is our birthright. We don\u2019t intend to trade it for rule by a self-appointed priesthood of \u2018international law.\u2019\u200a\u201d<\/p>\n

Mamdani\u2019s belief that, as a minor municipal functionary, he wields some imaginary international power to subvert American sovereignty just shows the delusions of his ideology.<\/p>\n

His authority extends to fixing potholes and collecting garbage, neither of which he does competently.<\/p>\n

DSA\u2019s real aim<\/h2>\n

But his delusions of grandeur are shared by the misfits, ignoramuses, and foreign interlopers who make up his rancid branch of the Democratic Party \u2014 the DSA.<\/p>\n

The Democratic Socialists of America know nothing, have built nothing and don\u2019t understand the country they live in, yet they imagine they have the moral authority to tear it down.<\/p>\n

Their aim is to import foreign conflicts and alien ideologies that are the antithesis of America\u2019s founding principles.<\/p>\n

The DSA\u2019s intellectual buffoonery was on full display last week when Mamdani\u2019s party capo, Peruvian-born Gustavo Gordillo, told Fox News\u2019 Martha MacCallum that his family was forced to come to America because of \u201ccapitalism and American imperialism,\u201d despite having left Peru during the Maoist Shining Path\u2019s revolutionary reign of terror.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat doesn\u2019t make much sense,\u201d MacCallum said dryly.<\/p>\n

No, it doesn\u2019t make sense, to a normal person. But when you look at the ideology behind the DSA, there is a twisted internal logic.<\/p>\n

Leftists are motivated by envy and a \u201cpoisonous resentment\u201d that makes them hostile to everything that has made America successful, as Rubio said last week when opening a State Department conference on combating left-wing violence, something his Cuban emigre family knows a thing or two about.<\/p>\n

Like Gordillo, Ugandan-born\u00a0Mamdani and so many of their DSA comrades \u2014 from Somali-born Rep. Ilhan Omar to Ecuador-born Assemblywoman Diana Moreno \u2014 came to America, or in some cases were born here, after their families fled countries crippled by socialism, authoritarianism or economic failure.<\/p>\n

You would think they might appreciate better than anyone the freedom and prosperity secured by America\u2019s constitutional system of self-government and ordered liberty.<\/p>\n

That used to be the case. Refugees from the killing fields of Soviet Russia, Maoist China, Communist Vietnam and Pol Pot\u2019s Cambodia were the canaries in the coal mine, warning us about the destructive evils of communism.<\/p>\n

They did not seek to replicate the fatal mistakes of their homelands in the generous country that had offered them refuge.<\/p>\n

But that is the mission of the DSA. To use the Democratic Party as their Trojan horse to foment a communist revolution in America.<\/p>\n

Bad in theory & practice<\/h2>\n

It\u2019s not about free buses or childcare, or a sort of Scandinavian-lite socialism, as they pretend.<\/p>\n

The grinning zealots of the DSA want to erase borders; abolish the police, ICE, and prisons; seize the means of production and redistribute wealth in the form of welfare to the millions of people they have imported from the Third World who will vote for more of the same.<\/p>\n

This is not just politics as usual. It is a communist insurgency aimed at destroying America. It is intolerable.<\/p>\n

The history of the 20th century shows that communism only advances through coercion and violence \u2014 a lesson written in the blood of its estimated 100 million victims.<\/p>\n

Its echoes now are seen at home in the frightening escalation of political violence by Antifa and other foreign-funded far-left terrorist groups since the BLM riots of 2020.<\/p>\n

Yet the very security apparatus that is supposed to keep us safe turned a blind eye to the violence, even seeming to condone it under Joe Biden.<\/p>\n

Those days are over.<\/p>\n

Rubio\u2019s State Department conference on Thursday brought together representatives from 67 countries in Europe, East Asia and Latin America to rally global support against the resurgence of far-left political terror groups like Antifa.<\/p>\n

In stirring speeches worth reading in their entirety, Rubio, White House deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent warned of the poisonous old ideology that is seeping into America and vowed to eliminate its inevitable companion, left-wing terrorism.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is time for the people of the civilized world to defend ourselves [against this] distinctive and unique evil,\u201d said Rubio.<\/p>\n

\u201cRadical leftism .\u2009.\u2009. may wear various different slogans and ideologies across place and time.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey can call themselves anti-capitalist or anti-imperialist or communist or anarchist or Marxist. But the fundamental character is always the same.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is a poisonous resentment cloaked in the language of equality and justice and liberation, an overwhelming need to tear down what greater men have built, to wreck what is beautiful and what is right on behalf of people who are only filled with ugliness and have nothing else to offer the world,\u201d Rubio continued.<\/p>\n

\u201cOne of the criticisms you sometimes hear of communism is that it sounds good in theory, but it never works in practice. That\u2019s actually not true.<\/p>\n
