9/11 families push to ban Mamdani from 25th anniversary remembrance over 'hostile' record

Families of 9/11 victims are urging organizers to bar New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani from attending the 25th anniversary remembrance, citing his public positions and associations, including reluctance to condemn certain phrases and ties to controversial figures like an imam linked to the 1993 World Trade Center bombing. They also reference his father's book that downplayed suicide bombers and drew comparisons between the U.S. and Al Qaeda.
