During his speech at the United Nations in New York, Israeli President Isaac Herzog criticized the organization for failing the Jewish people and aligning itself with antisemitism and terror—actions completely contrary to its founding principles.
“Today we find ourselves once again at a dangerous crossroads in the history of the United Nations. Instead of fulfilling its mission and courageously fighting against a global epidemic of murderous and despicable jihadist terrorism, this assembly has repeatedly demonstrated moral bankruptcy.
International forums and institutions such as the International Criminal Court choose, with outrageous hypocrisy, to protect the perpetrators of atrocities. They blur the distinction between good and evil and create a distorted symmetry between the victim and the murderous monster.”
