Were the U.N. delegates right to walk out during Benjamin Netanyahu's speech?
Dozens of U.N. delegates walked out of the General Assembly as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu began his address on Sept. 25, 2026, while more than 100 protesters were arrested outside demanding his arrest.
I must voice a certain reluctance in saying "Yes, walking out was right"; walking out, demanding arrest...whatever happened to 70+ years of bravado about shooting Hitler if you had the chance? Sure the irony is mind-imploding and soul-withering, but the fact is, that SOB is the second coming of same if ever there was one (and -without- the potential defenses from culpability of advanced syphilis, meth addiction, and a Personal Physician From Hell). Not that it ought to matter, but have I mentioned I'm a Jew? Maybe I should, I don't know, wear a little badge or something....

If you picked "stayed and listened," where's your line, would you sit through any speaker no matter what they said, or just this one?

I personally think even the camerapersons and the ushers (presuming they have them) should have walked out. Netanyahu is known by his actions.
