Mamdani Accuses Netanyahu of Spreading ‘Baseless Lies’ After U.N. Speech
THE NEW YORK TIMES: The Israeli prime minister accused Mayor Zohran Mamdani, an outspoken critic of Israel, of antisemitism. The mayor has become a political foil for the prime minister.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel again attacked Mayor Zohran Mamdani during a speech to the U.N. General Assembly on Thursday, accusing the mayor of antisemitism and saying his criticism of Israel had endangered New York’s Jewish population.
Mr. Netanyahu said that since Mr. Mamdani took office, “many Jews no longer feel safe in New York.”
Mr. Mamdani, New York’s first Muslim mayor, has long been an outspoken critic of Israel’s treatment of Palestinians and has denounced Mr. Netanyahu as a war criminal. Mr. Netanyahu has repeatedly assailed the mayor over his views, and many of the claims the prime minister made during his speech echoed his past attacks on Mr. Mamdani.
In response, Mr. Mamdani accused the prime minister of using his U.N. speech “to repeat baseless lies meant to sanitize his genocide of Palestinians.”
“Yet no lie can change the fact that he remains the subject of an International Criminal Court arrest warrant alleging war crimes and crimes against humanity,” the mayor said in a statement. » | Liam Stack | Thursday, September 24, 2026

Mahmoud Abbas Condemns Gaza War, Warns of Displacement and Demands Palestinian State at UNGA
Sep 24, 2026 | Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas addresses the 81st United Nations General Assembly, focusing on Gaza, the West Bank, Palestinian statehood and the future of the two-state solution.
Abbas condemns what he describes as killing, destruction, starvation and displacement in Gaza, and warns against what he calls another Nakba. He also raises concerns over settlement expansion, violence and the fragmentation of the West Bank and East Jerusalem.
He calls for implementation of the second phase of the Gaza roadmap, the reunification of Gaza and the West Bank under Palestinian authority, and renewed efforts toward a two-state solution. Abbas also discusses Palestinian institutional reforms, upcoming elections, recognition of the State of Palestine and his call for full UN membership.
The rejection of visas by the Trump regime for the Palestinian delegation is reprehensible! As is the denial of Palestinian statehood. These poor people are being treated worse than animals. It is inhuman and a total and utter disgrace. Quit the genocide! — © Mark Alexander

Abbas wirft Israel „genozidalen Krieg“ vor – wie reagiert Netanjahu?
BERLINER ZEITUNG: Palästinenserpräsident Mahmoud Abbas erhebt vor der UN schwere Vorwürfe gegen Israel und warnt vor einer dauerhaften Teilung der Palästinensergebiete. Benjamin Netanjahu spricht wenig später.
Palästinenserpräsident Mahmoud Abbas hat Israel vor der UN-Generalversammlung einen „genozidalen Krieg“ vorgeworfen und eine politische Wiedervereinigung des Gazastreifens mit dem Westjordanland und Ost-Jerusalem gefordert. Die Palästinenser erlebten „eine der gefährlichsten Zeiten“ ihrer Geschichte, sagte Abbas am Donnerstag in einer vorab aufgezeichneten Videobotschaft.
Die israelischen Streitkräfte hätten in Gaza Tod, Zerstörung, Hunger und Vertreibung verursacht, sagte Abbas. Er sprach von einem „genozidalen Krieg“, der eine „beispiellose humanitäre Katastrophe“ geschaffen habe. Die Bezeichnung ist Abbas’ Bewertung. Israel weist den Vorwurf eines Völkermords zurück und erklärt, seine militärischen Operationen richteten sich gegen die Hamas.
Abbas verwies zudem auf die Lage im besetzten Westjordanland einschließlich Ost-Jerusalems. Dort beschleunigten sich nach seinen Worten der israelische Siedlungsausbau, Landnahmen, Hauszerstörungen und Angriffe von Siedlern. Israel versuche, seine Kontrolle über palästinensisches Gebiet weiter auszudehnen, sagte der 90-Jährige. » | Alexander Schmalz | Donnerstag, 24. September 2026

Trump’s UN Speech Was Delusional and Dangerous
THE GUARDIAN: It is sad and dangerous that at such a perilous moment, the United States is saddled with a president like Trump
Screenshot taken from this Guardian op-ed. | Most would say only that Trump is leading in national embarrassment.’ Photograph: David Dee Delgado/Reuters
Donald Trump’s speech on Tuesday to the United Nations general assembly was an object lesson in his lawless rule and remarkable capacity for self-delusion. Disregarding the UN charter’s emphasis on the peaceful resolution of disputes, he doubled down on his violent unilateralism while denigrating the global issues that the UN is designed to address.
For many, the headline remark was his musing about whether to “annihilate the Islamic Republic” of Iran. “Do I drive them into hell with no chance of survival and no hope of future greatness or generations?”
But it was probably less a genuine threat than a clumsy effort to influence negotiations where he has little leverage. Trump is in desperate quest of some face-saving gesture that will allow him to feign “victory” and extract himself from his disastrous war of choice.
He spoke of destroying the “Islamic Republic”, which might imply the Iranian military, a legitimate military target. But his reference to precluding future generations suggests he meant to threaten the Iranian people. Attacking them would be a blatant war crime. » | Kenneth Roth | Wednesday, September 23, 2026

USA geben Blockade auf: UN genehmigt neue Hilfen für Nordkorea
BERLINER ZEITUNG: Nordkorea war lange Zeit von Unterstützung der Vereinten Nationen ausgeschlossen. Nun sollen die Sanktionen gelockert werden.
Die Vereinten Nationen haben erstmals seit längerer Zeit wieder humanitäre Hilfslieferungen nach Nordkorea genehmigt. Wie die südkoreanische Tageszeitung Korea Herald unter Berufung auf einen Beamten des südkoreanischen Außenministeriums berichtet, erhielten 17 humanitäre Hilfsprojekte die notwendige Ausnahmegenehmigung des zuständigen UN-Sanktionsausschusses.
Möglich wurde dieser Schritt durch einen Kurswechsel in Washington: Die Regierung von US-Präsident Donald Trump trägt die Lockerungen nun mit. In der Vergangenheit hatten die Vereinigten Staaten entsprechende Ausnahmen verhindert. Die Befürchtung war, dass das Regime von Machthaber Kim Jong-un die Lieferungen für eigene Zwecke missbrauchen könnte. » | Lea Brüggemann | Freitag, 6. Februar 2026

UN Report on Femicides: 83,000 Women and Girls Murdered in 2024 | DW News
Nov 26, 2025 | People around the world are rallying for action against gender-based violence, marking the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women.
In its latest report on femicide, the UN Office on Drugs and Crime estimated that some 83,000 women and girls were deliberately killed last year. More than half of those killings were committed by relatives or partners. The reality of gender-based violence was spotlighted this year by Gisèle Pelicot. The French survivor chose to waive her anonymity during the trial of her husband and dozens of other men, who drugged and raped her for years.

Netanyahu’s UN Israel–Nazi Germany Comparison Will Haunt Him: Marwan Bishara
Sep 27, 2025 | Al Jazeera’s senior political analyst Marwan Bishara says Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu’s latest UN address was likely to have been received “badly” globally, and probably even “alienated” Western allies.
“There is a total rejection of Netanyahu’s tone,” Bishara said. He argued that Netanyahu’s confrontational approach undermined allies who had recently recognised Palestinian statehood after “30 years of failed peace process”.
Bishara described the Israeli leader’s rhetoric as outdated and repetitive, adding that Netanyahu was “recycling old sound bites” that were not working out anymore.
“They fall flat … and the only people who would clap for him are his minions,” he said. “I think he got the wrong stack today. This is a speech that you give to Congress, not a speech you give to the United Nations, where people know what Israel’s crimes are.”
