1. We will never live down our alliance with him. Nor should we.

[Grins]

23. Yes. Every bomb and bullet has our name on it.

And not just Bibi. Previous Israeli governments, too.

“I said, ‘Get me President Bush on the phone'. They said he was in the middle of giving a speech in Philadelphia. I said I didn’t care: ‘I need to talk to him now!’ They got him off the podium, brought him to another room and I spoke to him. I told him, 'You can't vote in favour of this resolution'.” - Israeli Prime Minister, Ehud Olmert, admitting he "owned" the U.S. president, 12 Jan 2009, NY Times.

Why?

To tell Bush to immediately call his Secretary of State, Condoleezza Rice, and tell her to abstain on a United Nations resolution on Gaza - that Rice helped draft. Israel opposed the resolution.

Bush called Rice and told her to abstain. It passed 14 to 0, with the United States the only nation abstaining.

[paleotn]

27. I cannot agree more.

[Trueblue1968]

49. Net En Yahoooooo should face the ultimate end ..... I cant type what i want to happen to him.

They would probably put me in the slammer.

[wolfie001]

58. Nut and Yahoo!

He needs to have his fat self dragged before The Hague!

[Dave Bowman]

2. Yes! The maniac must feel humiliated.

[mr715]

9. This and South Park -- Bibi's ego had a bad week

[Violet_Crumble]

57. Kyle's mum really told him!

[TomSlick]

46. He is incapable of humiliation.

His only goal is to remain in office and, thereby, out of prison.

[louis-t]

3. That is the best thing I've seen this week.

Screw that bastard.

[Deuxcents]

4. Lovely to see some backbone displayed. And..I noticed the seat coverings in Ukraine's national colors 🩵💛

[Ping Tung]

5. The world speaks.

[tanyev]

6. Excellent. But why didn't they do that to Trump, too?

Especially after he said this:

“I’m really good at this stuff,” he said at one point. “Your countries are going to hell.”

America, on the other hand, is “the hottest country anywhere in the world, and there is no other country even close,” he said, in what was not a climate change reference.

[Wounded Bear]

11. GMTA - my feelings exactly...nt

[YodaMom2]

17. As much as Trump has degraded the U.S., this country still has massive economic and political influence.

Poking that particular bear could have serious repercussions. (They did laugh in his face, though, and that felt good.)

Israel’s power is regional and largely dependent on support from other nations (the U.S., specifically). The risk to expressing disapproval of Netanyahu is far less and somewhat diffuse.

[kacekwl]

19. You can

Acknowledge that and Still protest the so called leadership.

[YodaMom2]

22. True.

It was simply an explanation, not an excuse.

[kacekwl]

18. Exactly what should

have happened with trump.

[paleotn]

26. He hasn't butchered 10s of thousands of innocent people......yet.

[niyad]

31. Remember the covid deaths?

[Attilatheblond]

33. And the ever increasing number of ICE detainees who have been disappeared!

[popsdenver]

34. My thoughts exactly Niyad

and AN ***ADDITIONAL 500,000***, due to Trump's direct, intentional, Action & Inaction. And, I am guessing a far greater number of deaths, that were just NOT recorded, or listed as some other cause of death, rather than covid.....It was well known that Abbott in Texas, and DeSatan in Florida were not taking part in record keeping to make their bestest buddy not look so bad......

[eppur_se_muova]

50. Cuts to USAid may have accomplished exactly that.

When I say 'exactly', I'm including the fact that 'millions' does include 'tens of thousands' as a subset.

[rambler_american]

60. That was my first reaction.

Why not give trump the same tratment?

[malaise]

7. Good

Rec

[travelingthrulife]

8. Wonderful. I wish they had done this to Trump. I think they were all too stunned

by his demented spew.

[mr715]

10. Morbid fascination, probably

nt

[tonekat]

40. Like watching a toilet overflow. N/T

[chia]

54. 😂

[Wednesdays]

12. Could be they were waiting for his explaining his 180 degree turnaround over Ukraine.

[Totally Tunsie]

51. Rather they were waiting for him to clutch his chest and fall over.

[colorado_ufo]

53. That might have happened, after walking up all those stairs . . .

especially after Melania's brisk walk!

[NJCher]

52. it's debatable whether everyone could hear him

From a Guardian article:

I immediately thought to myself, “Wow, first the escalator event, and now a bad teleprompter. What kind of a place is this?’” Trump wrote. Adding insult to injury, he recounted a third alleged offense. After being forced to improvise part of his speech to the general assembly, he asked his wife how he had done, and she replied: “I couldn’t hear a word you said.”

OTOH:

However, it seemed unlikely that the audio problem was as bad as Trump made it out to be. Video showed the audience reacting immediately to what Trump was saying, including chuckling when the president declared with a hint of self-pity: “These are the two things I got from the United Nations, a bad escalator and a bad teleprompter.”

Now he's threatening conspiracy to humiliate him. If everyone had walked out, some people might think he'd genuinely been sabotaged.

[Beringia]

13. Fantastic

[dalton99a]

14. Israel should be treated like North Korea.

[dalton99a]

15. The piece of shit had to bring in people to applaud him

https://www.nytimes.com/live/2025/09/26/world/un-general-assembly-netanyahu

[PatSeg]

37. That makes sense

The rest of the world has just about had enough of Netanyahu's shit. What did he think would happen?

[Lonestarblue]

16. Well deserved treatment of the war criminal Netanyahu. Too bad he wasn't arrested and sent for trial.

I really do not understand what world leaders are waiting for in not ceasing all trade with Israel and levying severe economic sanctions on them. The IDF is now bombing more parts of Gaza to level all buildings, clearly preparing for Israeli settlers to steal the land, in addition to continuing to murder innocent Palestinians and trying to prevent any international aid group to feed them.

[dalton99a]

21. +1. With his sociopathic need for never-ending mass murder and mayhem, nobody gives a shit about Oct 7 anymore

[Grins]

20. Congratulations Israel. You have become a pariah; you are now what you once condemned.

I used to be a backer of Israel. But over time, less and less so.

First, it was to not trust them.
That became a dislike. A stronger dislike as time passed.
And now it's akin to hating Israel.

Not the Israeli's. The actions of their government and the Likud - in their name.

[paleotn]

25. And the relig-o-nuts backing the Bibi regime.

They have as much of a problem with religious nutjobs fucking up their politics based on dusty old myth as we do. Maybe more.

[artemisia1]

44. I had the same evolution. Raised Evangelical and taught Israel heralded the second coming to now, 40+ years later,

despising their government and its mass murder and land theft.

[paleotn]

24. Bibi the Butcher.

Someone should take names of those who remained. Apparently genocide doesn't bother them.

[JI7]

28. It just shows what a joke this whole thing is

Would they walk out if China was speaking ? How about Turkey ?

[Initech]

29. Excellent! Fuck that genocidal maniac!

This is how you treat terrorists! Hope Trump is treated the same!

[Grim Chieftain]

30. Wish they'd walk out on the Orange Fuhrer

He sure as hell deserves it.

[sinkingfeeling]

32. Wish they'd done it to Trump the other day as well.

[Deep State Witch]

35. Should Have Done That To TACO

Great! They should have done that for TACO, too.

[Ohioboy]

36. Looked like a nice orderly walkout

[liberalla]

38. Excellent!

(I'm with them!)

[popsdenver]

39. Putin and Netanyahu both visit the U.S.

Putin, if he sets foot in many countries, will immediately be arrested and sent to the Hague for international war crimes against humanity........
I can only imagine it is the same for genocidal, mass murderer, Netanyahu......

If they walked out on Netanyahu, I am surprised that they didn't RUN out when Mr. Poopy Pants stood to talk..........

[mjvpi]

59. Apparently his plane had to fly a very circuitous route to not go through German or French airspace.

If he had to land for an emergency, he would have been arrested.

[Jimvanhise]

41. MAKE OF THIS WHAT YOU WILL

There is a controversial Charlie Kirk video in which he questions the circumstances of the Oct. 6th Hamas attack. He explains that he'd been to Israel and what he saw was the border with Gaza guarded by armed guards literally every 20 feet, so how could a surprise attack occur? He implies that Israel allowed the invasion so that they'd have a solid reason to exterminate the Palestinians, which is basically what is happening now as they refuse a cease fire agreement.

[multigraincracker]

42. When will they realize that there are Christian

Palestinians being killed in Gaza too. It never gets mentioned by our press.

[moniss]

43. Well deserved and long overdue. nt

[artemisia1]

45. Sadly and disgracefully, DU still has some posters who are apologists for Israel's actions. /nt

[Dem2theMax]

47. The world has spoken. Without saying a word.

Well done!

[Exp]

48. This is what the audience should have done with Trump! nt

[JustAnotherGen]

55. They should

Have done it to Krasnov too.

[Violet_Crumble]

56. They did laugh at him...

I was going to point out the differences between him and Nutty, but this post says it well.
