In 1999, during the NATO bombing of Serbia, Mandel filed a formal complaint of NATO war crimes with the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia (ICTY), charging 67 NATO leaders with war crimes. Mandel's submissions were dismissed by the tribunal. He was anti-war and suggested that US President George W. Bush be banned from entering Canada because of the American invasion of Iraq. He was also a critic of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. He was a supporter of Palestinian rights.

He is an active denier of the 1995 Srebrenica genocide which killed approximately 8,000 innocent Bosnian Muslim men.
