In the best of years, General Assembly gatherings at the United Nations are good only for New York restaurants, hotels, prostitutes and comedians with an eye for absurdity.
This year’s edition of the circus promises to be especially rich in hypocrisy, with murderous autocrats and petty potentates lining up to take even more than the usual number of shots at Israel.
With the pooh-bahs jubilant that Israel is growing more isolated diplomatically, count on the air in Turtle Bay to reek with the stench of antisemitism even before the 80th session officially opens on Sept. 9.
Hatred for the lone Jewish nation will be so thick, it will feel like a rally for New York’s leading mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani , who won’t quit his attachment to BDS and the chant of “globalize the intifada.”
