Zohran Mamdani's victory is an indication of how much of a victory 9/11 was for the global jihad. Today, a Muslim who wants to "globalize the intifada," which is a call for jihad, will be the city's next mayor. This shows the power of the "Islamophobia" narrative and the cost of stigmatizing and silencing those who were calling attention to the jihad threat.
The demographics of New York will change, as non-Muslims move out and more far-leftists and Muslims move in. There will be increasingly aggressive calls for application of more Sharia provisions. In other words, if you want to see what is about to happen to New York City, look at what has happened to London over the last decade.

Can we avoid entangling foreign alliances?
“A passionate attachment of one nation for another produces a variety of evils. Sympathy for the favorite nation, facilitating the illusion of an imaginary common interest in cases where no real common interest exists and infusing into one the enmities of the other, betrays the former into a participation in the quarrels and wars of the latter, without adequate inducement or justification.”
--- George Washington, Farewell Address.

"The US/Israel realized:
that their regime change plans were not coming to fruition,
that the Iranian govt had more support and stronger foundations than they had believed,
that Israeli air defense was collapsing/exhausted and
that an attrition war of long range strike was going to go badly for Israel.
And Trump began to get freaked out over the rising price of oil with the Iranian threat of closing the strait of Hormuz.
So they wrapped it up, declared victory, and demanded a ceasefire.
Iran agreed because they too have been badly shaken through Israeli covert warfare and their own air defense all but collapsed.
The can will only be kicked down the road, and both sides will start rebuilding, and making preparations and plans for the next round, the next war. This was only a skirmish at the end of the day ..."
"One of the things you need to understand about human nature is that every last reason for taking each one of those steps was swathed in plausible and scholarly rationalizations. The devil is a liar, and is an expert on how to escort gullible smart people into a fog bank of sophisticated nonsense. As has been done."
