During genocidal war criminal Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu's address to the UN General Assembly, some nations' delegates walked out, some stayed. As an Australian, I'm ashamed to say Australia was one of the nations that stayed. #auspol #UN #Israel #FreePalestine

A war criminal, Netanyahu, is allowed to travel to New York and soil the chamber, but the Palestinians were denied a visa.

the two-column story is really not Netanyahu calling Mamdani antisemitic. or defending his wars or whining about protests. It’s that the trump admin keeps refusing to give abbas a visa to speak at UNGA . what do they fear?

One take on Netanyahu's speech at the UN yesterday was that it demonstrated how central anti-Muslim bigotry is to the right-wing in both the United States and Israel (and, incidentally, the far-right in many (most?), European countries).

The world is run by madmen, playing like Netanyahu here, for the domestic audiences to hold on to power.

an opinion also held by some in Israel: www.timesofisrael.com/gallant-pm-a...

Gallant: Netanyahu is a ‘liar’ who undermined security chiefs, has built false narrative of Oct. 7

Ex-defense minister joined by Lapid in upbraiding the PM for cherrypicked quotes, shirking accountability in his response to state comptroller's now-frozen Oct. 7 investigation
