    In this exclusive Jerusalem Post interview, Savetsky responds to accusations she's paid by the Israeli government - claims she calls "dangerous." The mother of three discusses her unpaid role as a World Zionist Congress delegate, her meeting with PM Netanyahu, and why she believes NYC mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani's victory signals dark times ahead for American Jews.

    "If Zohran Mamdani becomes mayor, it will get more uncomfortable for Jews in New York City. That is the bottom line," Savetsky warns, while revealing what she's heard about the percentage of NYC Jews voting for a candidate who led "Free Palestine" chants at rallies.
