Mamdani faces criticism over 9/11 pen to ex-al Qaeda lawyer
New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani faced criticism after giving a ceremonial pen to a top aide who previously represented a convicted al-Qaeda member linked to the 9/11 hijackers. The handoff occurred during a ceremony honoring the anniversary of September 11, with critics arguing it distracted from the event's purpose and disrespected victims. Mamdani's office explained that the aide, Ramzi Kassem, was involved in drafting official orders and had no role in the event's commemorative focus.
