NYC mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani's pledge to arrest Netanyahu is legally unenforceable under U.S. law.
Zohran Mamdani, a New York City mayoral candidate, pledged to arrest Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu if he visits the city, but legal experts say the promise is unenforceable under U.S. law.
The ICC issued an arrest warrant for Netanyahu in November 2024 over alleged war crimes, but U.S. law, including the American Service Members Protection Act and a Trump-era executive order, bars cooperation with the ICC and sanctions its officials.
Acting on the warrant would violate federal law and risk federal retaliation, making the pledge legally impossible and potentially dangerous for city officials.
