NYC Mayor Eric Adams has slammed a CUNY law graduate for her 'negativity and divisiveness' after she incited anger and slammed 'fascist' cops and military in the US.

Yemeni immigrant Fatima Mousa Mohammed gave the graduation speech at City University of New York's law school on May 12 - but unearthed footage has also shown her previously demanding Zionist professors be banned from the college. 

The controversial clip from the law graduation ceremony inflamed social media - including lawmakers and NYC's mayor, who today bashed her 'words of negativity and divisiveness.'

During her time as a student in New York City, Mohammed was known for being an avid protester and active member of Students for Justice in Palestine.

In March 2022, a clip showed her speaking in front of 'Friends of the IDF' in Midtown Manhattan to a crowd of people holding Palestinian flags.

Mohammed said: 'Demand that Zionist professors are not welcomed on your campus. Demand that Zionist students are not in spaces where Palestinian students are.'

She spoke before a crowd cheered: 'We don't want no Zionists here!'

Zionists are people who believe in the rights and protection of a Jewish nation - Israel. Many Jewish people across the world view themselves as Zionists. 

Speaking today, Eric Adams said in a tweet: 'I was proud to offer a different message at this year’s CUNY law commencement ceremony — one that celebrates the progress of our city and country, and one that honors those who fight to keep us safe and protect our freedoms, like my uncle Joe, who died at age 19 in Vietnam while giving his life for our country. 

'We cannot allow words of negativity and divisiveness to be the only ones our students hear.'

During her graduation ceremony, Mohammed repeatedly slammed Israel and linked the Jewish state to oppression and violence, as well as blasting the NYPD and the US military as 'fascists.'

The future lawyer called on her peers to continue to 'revolution' against capitalism, claimed brown prisoners are murdered daily in US jails, and turned on her own university for 'cooperating with global violence.' 

In her graduation address, she said: 'This is the law school that passed and endorsed BDS on a student and faculty level, recognizing that absent a critical imperialism settler colonialism lens, our work and the school's mission statement is void of value as Israel continues to indiscriminately rain bullets and bombs on worshipers, murdering the old, the young, attacking the funerals and graveyards as it encourages lynch mobs.

'We are the student body and faculty that fought back when the investor-focused administration attempted to cross the BDS picket line, saying loud and clear that Palestine can no longer be the exception to our pursuit of justice, that our morality will not be purchased by investors.' 

She slammed the college for 'continuing to cooperate with the fascist NYPD, the military, that continues to train IDF soldiers to carry out that same violence globally.'

Jewish Community Relations NY said in a statement following her CUNY speech: 'Once again the CUNY Law School commencement speech by the student body elected commencement speaker was incendiary anti-Israel propaganda.

'This particular commencement speech cast aside the principle of seeking truth in a shameless attempt to vilify CUNY's constructive engagement with Israel and the New York Jewish community and to denigrate Israel's supporters on campus while trading in anti-Semitic tropes.

'We strongly encourage CUNY to revise its guidelines surrounding commencement speeches.'
