NYC Mayor Slams Netanyahu at UN Over War Crimes Arrest Warrant
New York City Mayor Eric Adams responded to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's address at the United Nations, stating that Netanyahu used his speech to repeat "baseless lies" aimed at justifying "genocide against Palestinians." Adams asserted that "no lie can change the fact that he carries an arrest warrant from the International Criminal Court for war crimes and crimes against humanity."
Netanyahu, in his UN speech, had criticized Adams, saying, "Since you were elected, Jews have not felt safe in New York." He also vehemently denied committing genocide, stating, "Israel did not commit genocide. Israel prevented genocide. That is exactly what Mr. Adams would have done to us if we had not stopped them."
The exchange highlights the growing international pressure and legal scrutiny faced by Israel and its leadership regarding the ongoing conflict and its conduct.
