库默因回应电台主持人对马姆达尼的伊斯兰恐惧言论遭批评
摘要
前州长安德鲁·库默因对电台主持人暗示市长候选人佐赫兰·马姆达尼会庆祝恐怖袭击的言论发笑，遭到伊斯兰恐惧症指控和批评。
前州长安德鲁·库默因在一次电台采访中的回应受到审视。当时主持人西德·罗森伯格暗示穆斯林市长候选人佐赫兰·马姆达尼如果发生类似9/11的袭击会“欢呼”。库默当时轻笑并回应道：“那是另一个问题。”
马姆达尼谴责这一交流为“令人作呕”，并且是对纽约穆斯林社区的侮辱。他表示：“我们在谈论一位前州长，在他公共生活的最后时刻，发表的言论不仅带有伊斯兰恐惧症，不仅种族歧视，而且令人厌恶。”
包括众议员里奇·托雷斯在内的其他民主党人也批评了库默的言论。托雷斯评论说：“暗示一位市长候选人会庆祝第二次9/11事件，令人极度恶心和可耻。”
库默的发言人里奇·阿佐帕迪随后澄清，前州长并不认为马姆达尼会庆祝恐怖袭击。阿佐帕迪解释称，库默的评论是指马姆达尼与哈桑·派克的关联，后者此前曾发表过关于9/11的争议言论。然而，马姆达尼已谴责派克的言论为“令人反感且应受谴责”。
此事件加剧了纽约市长竞选的紧张局势。马姆达尼若当选，将成为该市首位穆斯林市长，但他已遭受伊斯兰恐惧症攻击。库默在输掉民主党初选后以独立身份参选，被指控在竞选的最后阶段采用分裂策略。
