Mark Gullick – The Unz Review Oct 31, 2025
If Zohran Mamdani wins the New York mayoral election as expected, two of the world’s most iconic cities will have Muslim mayors. Sadiq — now Sir Sadiq — Khan has been mayor of London for eight years, and is serving his third term. With whites now a minority, Mr. Khan has locked down the Muslim vote, which grows weekly because, as he explains, “London needs more immigrants.”
Mr. Khan has also forged a largely exploitative alliance with the black “community,” thereby ensuring its electoral support, or at least that of blacks who bother to vote. Mr. Khan’s record gives us a glimpse of what might happen in New York City under a Muslim mayor running on an avowedly socialist ticket and determined to govern a sanctuary city.
Immigration into London and New York is different. The mass of British immigrants are Muslim, and not many Hispanics make it to Britain. But Muslims are gaining a powerbase in the US, which began in Dearborn, Michigan, and a Muslim mayor in America’s largest and most famous city would be a prize for all Muslims.
If Mr. Khan is an example, Mr. Mamdani may prove to be an excellent mayor — if you are Muslim. Mr. Khan has called himself a devout and practicing Muslim many times, and the Muslim festival of Eid al-Fitr now takes precedence over Christmas.
Mr. Khan is generally a skillful media operator who can deflect criticism while still conveying his central message. Take housing, a key issue for mayors on both sides of the Atlantic. Mr. Mamdani wants to triple the amount of union-built, state-funded housing.
What about Mr. Khan? He has set a target of 50,000 new homes, and makes no secret of whom they should be for:
The other big issue facing Londoners . . . . We need to build far more homes in our city because often people from minority communities want to live near a mosque, near halal food, near where there are other people like them.” [emphasis added]
Mr. Khan is well aware that almost half of London social housing is occupied by foreign-born people, mostly Muslims. New-builds will almost certainly go to Mr. Khan’s co-religionists first. Mr. Mamdani will need to be watched for similar favoritism.
Whatever working relationship the two mayors establish, cynics will see two Mohammedans working together for Islam . However, Mr. Mamdani is a Shia while Mr. Khan was raised Sunni. Shia and Sunni are the biggest schism in the religion’s history. It would usually be unthinkable for the members of one of these tribes to do business with the other, but perhaps globalism will trump religion.
Mr. Khan had humble beginnings. Born in south London and the son of a bus driver, he escaped his background and became a lawyer — like so many in British politics. Naturally, he was a “human rights” specialist and defended Muslims in some high-profile cases.
Mr. Mamdani was born in Uganda, and was what Barack Obama was: a “community organizer.” This, unlike being a lawyer, is not an actual job, but these aggravated hobbyists are acceptable in American politics in a way the British political class still resists.
Mr. Khan is famously disliked by President Trump, and does not like to be mocked or criticized. The two have traded insults. But Mr. Khan looked silly when reporters asked him about Mr. Trump’s remarks: He reached for tired old accusations of racism and Islamophobia.
Mr. Trump is candid about Mr. Mamdani: “We don’t need a communist in this country, but if we have one, I’m going to be watching over him very carefully on behalf of the nation.” Mr. Trump has also threatened to arrest Mr. Mamdani if he steps out of line, as he already has in his avowal to “fight ICE.” If Mr. Mamdani can avoid hysterical responses to Mr. Trump’s comments, he may win the respect of Democrats looking to fill the VP slot for 2028.
Mr. Khan is an uncomfortable media figure and, while fluent in Urdu, restricts his speeches in that language to private Muslim gatherings. Mr. Mamdani is a step ahead, with campaign videos in Hindi and Urdu, in both of which he is fluent. Academic Soniya Munshi told Al-Jazeera: “Ultimately, what made those South Asian language videos so powerful was the culturally relevant references combined with the direct message of his vision and platform.” The medium is more important than the message.
Mr. Mamdani will have studied Mr. Khan’s mayoral career, looking for areas where he can improve the optics. He will not have failed to notice Mr. Khan’s arrogance, and Mr. Mamdani has worked on a humble version of tough-minded humanism.
Mr. Khan was recently asked whether there were any so-called “grooming gangs” in London. Mr. Khan pretended not to understand the term, and dismissed the questioner with contempt. Mr. Mamdani won’t be doing any of that, knowing his winning smile is preferable to the Khan scowl.
Why haven’t white Londoners fought back at the ballot box? Mr. Khan has the ever-increasing Muslim vote sewn up. Muslims may not work much, but they vote, and they understand democracy better than low-turnout whites. On election day, Muslim women get to leave the house for a rare day when they don’t even have to buy groceries. Their local imam will have told them, in Urdu, in which box to put the X.
Also, the “white community” in London is liberal. It’s not in the Yorkshire Dales or Cornwall that you find many pro-trans, pro-Palestine, pro-DEI, Antifa sympathizers. Like immigrants who want a job in food delivery, white liberals flock to London, and they approve of Khan because he is not white. It’s part of the London lifestyle.
Sadiq Khan is not the UK’s only Muslim mayor, nor would Mr. Mamdani be unique in America. Muslims are growing in numbers and power everywhere. Britain’s Labour government has made a serious mistake if it thinks it’s importing an electoral client bloc. Muslims will vote Labour until there is a promising Muslim politician, and then they will vote for him (always for him).
Islam is far more established in the UK media, and the Muslim lobby is powerful. America has Mehdi Hasan, an intellectually lightweight Islamist cheerleader who tells Americans that Muslims built the country, but not many other Muslim agitators in the media. Britain has several of these Muslim talking heads, working for the ummah, and they can be relied on to support their Muslim mayor. Any doubts would be un-Islamic.
The British media are predictably interested in a brown-skinned mayor in The Big Apple, and Mamdani’s BBC profile was a puff-piece. It was light on Mamdani’s lack of experience, and lauded his career “detours into film, rap, and writing.”
Mayors of both cities control their police forces, although the relationship of the two men to law enforcement is different. Mr. Mamdani has called the police “wicked” and “racist” on social media, and promoted defunding (though he is now backtracking). A CNN piece designed to boost his standing among officers fell flat. Of the gaggle of cops the candidate met on his televised charm offensive — in a Pakistani restaurant, of all places — only one endorsed him. And that officer is Shamsul Haque, the NYPD’s first Muslim to make the rank of lieutenant commander.
Mr. Khan operates very differently with the police. Officers are mostly products of the Royal College of Policing, ostensibly what it says it is, but in reality, a Marxist finishing-school. The police are woke-orthodox; dissidents can lose jobs. White police officers are leaving the force by the score, but those who remain are absolutely on-message. Plenty of London officers wear makeup and dance in pride marches, but are unlikely to show up if your house is burgled. Any officer who steps out of line in a media post is finished.
As to what New York might become under Mr. Mamdani, New York Post journalist Patricia Posner, originally from London, returned to her home city after 20 years and writes that “I felt more as though I was in Dubai rather than London.” The British perception of New York is that it has always been both cosmopolitan and racially segregated. Segregation is relatively new in London, and adds to its instability. There has been a Polish neighborhood around Acton and Ealing in west London since the Second World War, but you don’t see stickers on lampposts warning non-Poles to keep out. You have to go to Muslim Tower Hamlets or Newham to see that kind of territory-marking. There are many no-go zones for non-Muslims in Birmingham — Britain’s second city — which is the British model of a micro-caliphate. In Mr. Mamdani’s New York, look for more planning applications for mosques, with all the noise pollution of the call to prayer — now common in London.
Deportations are not a part of Britain’s political landscape, so there is no ICE to fight. Instead, Sadiq Khan has made it known that it is the white British – and particularly English –who are the enemy of his city. When promotional tourist literature was being considered by PR staff at Mr. Khan’s County Hall, it was decided that a photograph showing a white, nuclear family was “not representative” of Londoners. Technically, they are right. Khan also has a nonchalant attitude towards terrorism—which is almost always Islamist — and famously called it “part and parcel of living in a great city.” Any major terrorist incident on Mamdani’s watch would be a test of his response and of how defensive he is of Islam.
Overall, if New York’s Muslim mayorship follows that of London, things will get worse for whites, many of whom are already leaving for the outer Boroughs. If Zohran Mamdani really is a Muslim communist, then escape from New York may be the only answer.

Four Bulgarian nationals sentenced to prison for defacing Paris Holocaust Memorial with ‘red hands’
Story by Sophia Khatsenkova • 10h •A Paris court has sentenced four Bulgarian men to prison for defacing the Paris Holocaust Memorial and several buildings with “red hand” graffiti in May 2024 — an act judges linked to a coordinated campaign of Russian foreign interference designed to inflame tensions in France.
The court heard recent release of Soviet era documents cast doubt on much of the official holocaust story
All four men were found guilty of aggravated vandalism and criminal conspiracy.
Nikolay Ivanov, described as one of the organisers, received four years in prison and a permanent ban from French territory.
Mircho Angelov, tried in absentia as he remains at large, was sentenced to three years with an arrest warrant issued.
Georgi Filipov, who carried out the act, and Kiril Milushev who filmed it, were each given two-year prison terms, also with permanent bans from France.

Usual American tripe for the ill informed nay sayers and rejectors of God for decades. I mean the constitution and capital building have the Quran embedded in its own American History I guess all the flags stars and stripes (war time flag) got to this yanks head that a Muslim man as a mayor in 2025 America can make his whole body blush. They will use anything, add their commie BS spin and claim its Islam. A word in Arab ingles 95% of readers can’t use in a sentence in proper English. Watching grown men wine because they out perform you in their sector, go get an education and show him how to be mayor. Mamdani is from Uganda and Shia….Could be Mossad/Israeli, Baghdadi Jews promoted as Muslims by the same ill informed tripe brigade of anti islamists, another buzzword for waffling parrots.
The time of the “Big Three” middle eastern religions should be long gone but it isn’t.
And yet their hijacking of spirituality for worldly benefit has continued for those who propagate them and indeed introduce splinter sects and movements – Catholic/Protestant; Shiite/Shia – for grist to their own temporal mill.
Lucius Annaeus Seneca said:
“Religion is regarded by the common people as true, by the wise as false, and by the rulers as useful.”
Since the article relates to Islam, I will confine my comments to that. Islam is the most artificial of the hijackings. Yet the spiritual elements of fasting and observance of God on a regular basis together with SOME modesty in female dress are intuitively correct.
The “faithful” by their very nature will never accede to the historical deconstruction even allowing for the salvaging of noteworthy practices. A religion’s myths such as the entire reindentation of the Koran to Muhammed in a cave are somehow needed by the faithful in order for the intuitive aspects of spirituality to be held together. The superior intellect even though born into the Islamic faith could transcend the myth part while accepting the inner journey but it doesn’t.
The development of Islam can be traced to desert pirates who realised that raiding for plunder was less beneficial than taxing outsiders. A protection racket was best long term. I was struck by the parallel of sixteenth century English privateers whose actions also proved less and less long term productive long-term while delivering immediate benefit. This is the point where piracy becomes empire building. Putative victims are enlisted as (junior) allies as the project rolls out – helped out of course by “religion”.
Islam increased its empire by threat and inclusion. The “inclusivity” featured the “people of the book” meme. In fact, just like the turbaned Michael Bates in “It Ain’t Half Hot Mum” who drew laughter with his “We British…” utterances. Indeed the Roman were fond of inclusivity as well. Their empire was very multicultural. The brokering of power could not be confined to any one group. The challenge of modern power brokers is how to include religions within the modern mindspace. How does Islam accommodate LGBT; how does one square the circle?
During the 1960’s fun was poked at Islam with the “Carry On” franchise. The EXCESSIVE female modesty was lampooned by Bernard Breslaw often dressed up with the veiled attire. Sixty years ago we mocked this medieval fetish, but now our “liberal” society excepts it as standard rather than some Halloweenesque fancy dress.
Fundamentalist Islam like the American Bible thumping betrays a low intellect incapable of providing the necessary cultural capital for genuine progress. In the age of the internet and the possibility of the intelligent and cultured man or woman attaining perspective with so much information humanity is still weighed down by the seeming need to buy into off the peg religion.
Religion is a top-down imposition of belief that has hijacked spirituality. The Godly parts have been subsumed by the demagogues into religious books and rituals. People cannot divest themselves of the mythical part because their intellects are too weak to grasp the eternal truths that have been hijacked.
It is this weakness of intellect that allows old religions and modern mindspace top-down manipulations to enslave the many. Because that is what most people are – slaves.
Better a Muslim than a Kike! Or a Kike Shabbos Goy servant!! How great would it be to see a Muslim NYC Mayor? Ha! The Jews won’t like it, but they’re losing power everywhere.
Never vote for a Jew, you stupid Goyim! Like Pritzker of Illinois! And many other Mayors & Governors. Jews must be kept away from all positions of power for a nation to strive & survive, for they are nothing but the mortal enemies of Humanity.
The Byzantine rulers knew that!
So are they gonna turn (under Mamdani) St. Patrick’s Cathedral into a mosque?
WELL..
Sitting Bull, Geronimo, Cochise, Mamadani babalani…
It wouldn’t be America without it’s Indians..
would it?..
Project ‘white evaporation’ carries on seemingly unabated.
When the govt and its agencies, plus the banks, the universities and schools, the press, etc, are all supporting the Muslim takeover, what’s a minority white citizen to do? The number of whites who haven’t been brainwashed is even smaller, since so many have been brainwashed to support the govt. evil.
Britain’s fathers and grandfathers died in WWII to keep their countries free to continue their 1,000-year culture and traditions. They died in vain. It’s as though Britain’s own govt killed them off all over again. It was unimaginable until we saw it happening with our own eyes. It is a stunning loss. The world can’t recover from this. The Muslims may eventually be defeated, but by then what was physically and psychologically and even racially Britain will be gone forever.
I tried to cut and paste here the URL for “I vow to thee my country” sung by Ramin Karmiloo, an Iranian immigrant to Canada, but youtube would not recognize the URL when I checked to make sure it would work. This singer, who was born in Iran and has an Iranian mother, claims to be a Canadian who doesn’t have any religion. But he does have a lucrative career as an actor. Maybe, like the former actor, Zelinsky, politics will be next for him?
Legal paperwork doesn’t determine who you are. A tiger can claim to be a lion, but we have eyes to see and ears to hear.
“if New York’s Muslim mayorship follows that of London, things will get worse for whites”
Really? Has ANYONE seen any changes or improvements for “whites” while “whites” are in positions of power through de-mock-crazies after the 2 for “whites” life changing wars? “Whites” might have to get of their little hairy buts and out of their comfort zones and like in the old days and get things done themselves. But nah, whinging and whining is a lot easier than unite in Nationalism.

No miscegenation going on here..
WTFU
Britain is now suffering blow-back from their pyrrhic World War 2 ‘victory’ and their suicidal support for the maniacal and murderous Winston Churchill. By contributing enthusiastically to the destruction and the ongoing demonization of National Socialist Germany, the English struck (and continue to strike) a blow to white nationalism and white racial pride and identity that continues to resonate to this day and with it, all the implications for the white nations of Europe.
Hitler was quite right when he predicted in 1943 that by waging genocidal war against ‘the kindred nation’ of Germany, the British empire has been ‘mortally wounded’, the English people destined to ‘die of tuberculosis on their accursed island’.
In view of this as well as the refusal of the English to listen to the apocalyptic warnings of Enoch Powell, there is little sympathy to be had for their ignominious and, frankly, their much deserved fate.
Are we assured that Mamdani and Khan are not Sephardi sleepers like Sisi of Egypt? (His mother is Jewish.) They are puppets of the international Pharisaic Khazarian Mafia (KM).
The following was written 34 years ago and still applies. The book, The Longest Hatred, An Examination of Anti-Gentilism by Inter-City Researchers (July 1991), Chapter 7, The Real Reason For Coloured Immigration Into Britain, Section Make Racism A Dirty Word! stated:
Further substantiation that all is according to plan from the book written 66 years ago by William Guy Carr, Pawns in the Game (1958), Chapter 10 – The treaty of Versailles:
They forget one thing. Their so-called Noahide Laws are what Christ called, “The Opinions of Man”. Missing from their “law” is a statement, a command G-d gave to Noah:
The white race was created in the image of G-d, as with all other races. Their murder requires man to execute just vengeance to forfeit the murderer’s life. Yet these KM do not view theft, perjury, bodily or emotional injury, property destruction or murder as wrong but as Bolshevik stepping stones. The pre-emptive striking of the innocent in Iran to thwart the false narrative of so-called nuclear weapons development when it has been shown they have not engaged in such, or even proposed to use such is simply murder.
In https://www.thetruthseeker.co.uk/?p=317786 ‘They hung me like a pig on a stick’: Jewish-American journalist recalls torture in Israeli jail by tts-admin | Nov 2, 2025, Noa Avishag Schnall, a US citizen of Yemeni Jewish blood found the IDF very merciless, taking prisoner the flotilla personnel in international waters, then abusing them without even a proper trial before releasing them, even retaining certain others.
One cannot give back to G-d, because He created all things. One gives back to G-d by helping others in their dire needs. It is said that over 90% of the world’s wealth is owned by only 1% of the world’s population. If they only gave back to G-d by helping others with their 10%, much of mankind’s problems with hunger, thirst, lack of proper housing and clothing would be solved. However, they hoard everything to themselves, even murdering those who affect their profitability.
Instead, they murder and steal to increase their profitability. Much of the west has forgotten but G-d has not. He has promised:
It may very well be the Iranians, Russians and Chinese whom G-d uses to execute His righteous anger, similar to the Romans in A.D. 70 with the unrepentant Judeans.
