"Prime Minister Netanyahu will proudly address the General Assembly. He will do so despite threats, incitement and antisemitic rhetoric we have heard from the mayor of the city of New York," he said.
Why It’s Conflation
Mamdani, New York's mayor, has criticized Netanyahu's visit to the UN. Israel's UN ambassador said the mayor's words were "antisemitic rhetoric." Criticizing a foreign leader's visit isn't hatred of Jews.
What Actually Happened
Mamdani has criticized Netanyahu's planned visit to New York for the UN General Assembly and has been asked by reporters about the visit and about calls for Netanyahu's arrest.
