"New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani on Sunday again declined to condemn the phrase “globalize the intifada” but emphasized he would be a mayor “that protects Jewish New Yorkers” if elected in November."

"“I’ve heard from many Jewish New Yorkers who have shared their concerns with me, especially in light of the horrific attacks that we saw in Washington, D.C. and in Boulder, Colorado, about this moment of antisemitism in our country and in our city,” Mamdani told Welker. “And I’ve heard those fears, and I’ve had those conversations.”"

But rather than reject the phrase

“That’s not language that I use,” Mamdani told NBC’s Kristen Welker on “Meet the Press.”

So it kinda sounds like he does reject that particular phrase but this article still wants to attack him for it
