Palestinian Authority (PA) President Mahmoud Abbas is currently speaking at the United Nations General Assembly in New York.
His talk is focused on Israel's alleged wrongdoings and shortcomings, though critics claim that he is being notably hypocritical. He claims that Israel is a poor example of democracy, though he himself has been president for over a decade without offering an election. He also stated that "Palestine" was peaceful before the creation of Israel, ignoring the numerous times Arabs massacred and generally mistreated Jews.
