Netanyahu to defend Israel at UN
“I’m coming to the UN,” Netanyahu said in a brief video statement. “Shame on you, Mr Mamdani,” Netanyahu said. Mamdani has previously said he would arrest Netanyahu, but later acknowledged that he did not have the power to do so. Mamdani has condemned antisemitism and said his criticism of Israel is wrongly conflated with antisemitism. Netanyahu’s spokesman Doron Spielman said last week that the prime minister would use the UN platform to present Israel’s position. He’s not intimidated by Mayor Mamdani,” he said.
Hitting out at the New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani, he also accused him of supporting Hamas. “I’m going to tell the truth about our heroic soldiers, and I’m going to tell the truth about you (Mamdani). “Shame on you for supporting the Hamas terrorist monsters who butchered our people. Shame on you for inciting riots against New York Jews. “It’s one of the most important stages for the Prime Minister of Israel to stand on and present the truth to the world. That’s our goal. He’s not intimidated by anybody.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Tuesday he would use his address to the United Nations this week to defend Israel’s military actions against Palestinians.
