Walkouts at the start of a leader’s speech are not unknown at a UN General Assembly but, in the case of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu last week, it was akin to a stampede. He stood at the podium scowling as if he had taken down all their names. The media barely referenced this but many delegates did not wish to honor a man who has an arrest warrant out against him for crimes against humanity at the International Criminal Court and who has been widely accused of masterminding Israel’s genocide in Gaza.
