聯合國，9月24日（路透）——以色列總理班雅明・納坦雅胡週四在聯合國強力為以色列在區域內的行動辯護，試圖在數十名代表魚貫離席之際，反擊日益升高的國際孤立；而他也即將面臨一場可能敗選的選舉。UNITED NATIONS, Sept 24 (Reuters) - Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu mounted a forceful defense of Israel's actions in the region at the UN on Thursday, seeking to counter growing international isolation ahead of elections he could lose, as dozens of delegates streamed out.

這場離席凸顯納坦雅胡面臨的多重壓力：他一方面因加薩戰爭在海外承受愈來愈多批評，另一方面則在國內為10月27日投票的連任選戰奔走。The walkout underscored the competing pressures facing Netanyahu, who is battling mounting criticism abroad over the Gaza war while campaigning for reelection at home ahead of an October 27 vote.

以色列作為引發的分歧，在納坦雅胡開始演說時展露無遺，數十名代表以離席抗議。他稱這些人是「道德懦夫」，而旁聽席上的支持者則以希伯來語高喊：「以色列人民永存。」The divisions over Israel's conduct were on display as Netanyahu began speaking, with dozens of delegates walking out in protest. He called them "moral cowards," while supporters in the gallery chanted in Hebrew: "The people of Israel live."

納坦雅胡在演說中痛批紐約市長佐赫蘭・曼達尼（Zohran Mamdani）稱他為戰犯，也批評西歐領袖屈服於他所稱的「反猶暴民」，並指控卡達和土耳其散布有關以色列的謊言。Netanyahu used his address to berate New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani for calling him a war criminal, Western European leaders for what he called succumbing to "antisemitic mobs," and to accuse both Qatar and Turkey of spreading lies about Israel.

以色列任期最長的領導人納坦雅胡談到曼達尼時說：「你試圖阻止我來這裡。你試過了。你試圖讓我噤聲。好吧，你無法讓我噤聲。你無法讓真相噤聲。」"You tried to stop me from coming here. You tried. You tried to silence me. Well, you can't silence me. You can't silence the truth," Netanyahu, Israel's longest-serving leader, said of Mamdani.

曼達尼競選公職時承諾，若納坦雅胡造訪美國最大城市紐約，將因涉嫌戰爭罪逮捕他；但曼達尼後來表示，他判定自己沒有這麼做的法律權限。本週，曼達尼形容納坦雅胡是「對巴勒斯坦人犯下駭人種族滅絕的設計者」。Mamdani campaigned for office on a promise to have Netanyahu arrested for alleged war crimes should he visit the largest US city but later said he determined he lacked the legal authority to do so. This week, Mamdani described Netanyahu as "the architect of a horrific genocide against Palestinians."

這是曼達尼1月上任後，納坦雅胡首次訪問紐約。他說：「這裡有一個簡單的真相：以色列沒有犯下種族滅絕。以色列阻止了種族滅絕。」Making his first visit to New York since Mamdani took office in January, Netanyahu said: "Here's a simple truth: Israel didn't commit genocide. Israel prevented genocide."

他指控曼達尼支持哈瑪斯武裝分子，曼達尼則否認此事。He accused Mamdani of supporting Hamas militants, something Mamdani has denied.

納坦雅胡說：「對所有散布這些有關我的國家和我們英勇士兵的謊言的人，不論他們坐在這座大廳裡，或坐在紐約反猶市長的辦公室裡，我要說的是：你們可恥！」"To all those spreading these lies about my country and about our brave soldiers, whether they sit in this hall or in the office of the antisemitic mayor of New York, I say this: Shame on you!" Netanyahu said.

曼達尼在聲明中說：「正如他一再所做的，納坦雅胡總理利用演說重複毫無根據的謊言，意圖粉飾他對巴勒斯坦人的種族滅絕。然而，任何謊言都無法改變一項事實：他仍是國際刑事法院逮捕令的對象，該逮捕令指控他涉及戰爭罪和危害人類罪。」In a statement, Mamdani said: "As he has done time and again, Prime Minister Netanyahu used his speech to repeat baseless lies meant to sanitize his genocide of Palestinians. Yet no lie can change the fact that he remains the subject of an International Criminal Court arrest warrant alleging war crimes and crimes against humanity.”

卡達也駁斥它企圖扭轉輿論、使之反對以色列的指控。卡達外交部發言人在X上表示，納坦雅胡一再攻擊杜哈，是為了轉移外界對其實地政策責任的注意。Qatar also rejected the accusation that it was seeking to turn public opinion against Israel, with its foreign ministry spokesperson saying on X that Netanyahu's repeated attacks on Doha sought to divert attention from responsibility for policies on the ground.

土耳其總統塔伊普・艾爾段（Tayyip Erdogan）的傳播事務主管駁斥納坦雅胡對土耳其和艾爾段的指控，稱其毫無根據。布爾哈內丁・杜蘭（Burhanettin Duran）在X發文說：「納坦雅胡針對我國總統的傲慢卑劣言論，無法掩蓋他的屠殺、加薩正在發生的人道災難，或國際法下的法律程序。」Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan's communications director dismissed Netanyahu's accusations against against Turkey and Erdogan as baseless. "Netanyahu’s insolent and despicable remarks targeting our President cannot obscure his massacres, the humanitarian catastrophe unfolding in Gaza, or the legal proceedings before international law," Burhanettin Duran said in a post on X.

納坦雅胡的政治前途岌岌可危NETANYAHU'S POLITICAL FUTURE ON THE LINE

距離大選不到5週，納坦雅胡發表約40分鐘演說，內容近似競選演說，並於晚間黃金時段在以色列4家主要電視頻道全程直播。With general elections less than five weeks away, Netanyahu spoke for about 40 minutes in what amounted to a campaign-style speech, broadcast live in evening prime time on all four of the main Israeli television channels.

納坦雅胡辦公室在聲明中表示，在他演說前，納坦雅胡政府出資在曼哈頓各處放置500面挺以色列、反伊朗的看板，並安排數十輛載有支持以色列訊息的卡車。Ahead of his speech, Netanyahu's government paid to place 500 pro-Israel and anti-Iran billboards and dozens of trucks carrying messages in support of Israel across Manhattan, Netanyahu's office said in a statement.

民調顯示，納坦雅胡陣營在選前落後對手。他利用這場演說凸顯他所稱以色列在7條戰線上的戰鬥，其中包括2月底美以聯合空襲後爆發的對伊朗戰爭。With opinion polls showing Netanyahu's bloc trailing rivals ahead of the election, he used the speech to showcase what he described as Israel's fight on seven fronts, including the war with Iran that began with joint US-Israeli strikes in late February.

如同過去在聯合國露面時，納坦雅胡使用道具。他拿出一支與黎巴嫩境內造成受伊朗支持的真主黨成員死傷的攻擊有關的呼叫器，以及一台他說會留給伊朗代表團的Starlink衛星網路接收器。As in past UN appearances, Netanyahu used props, holding up a pager linked to an attack that killed and wounded Iran-backed Hezbollah members in Lebanon and a Starlink satellite internet receiver he said he would leave for the Iranian delegation.

他說：「所以，當他們不可避免地叛逃時，他們也能在社群媒體上自由說出自己的故事。」他還說，伊朗當局被人民推翻只是時間問題。"So when they inevitably defect, they too will be able to freely tell their story on social media," he said, adding that it was only a matter of time before the Iranian authorities would be toppled by the people.

紐約街頭抗議STREET PROTESTS IN NEW YORK

數百名抗議者聚集在聯合國附近，其中數十人阻擋交通，並高喊「停止武裝以色列，讓加薩活下去」以及「停止武裝以色列，讓伊朗活下去」。警方將他們拘留。Several hundred protesters gathered near the United Nations, with dozens blocking traffic and chanting, "Stop arming Israel, let Gaza live" and "Stop arming Israel, let Iran live." Police detained them.

納坦雅胡此次短暫訪美是為了在聯合國發表演說；不同尋常的是，他沒有安排與美國總統唐納・川普（Donald Trump）會面。納坦雅胡在演說中讚揚川普。Netanyahu was making a short visit to the US for his UN address and, unusually, without a planned meeting with US President Donald Trump, whom he praised during his speech.

他說：「我們將繼續捍衛我們的國家。我們將繼續勝利，因為我們別無選擇。在這場對抗野蠻人的戰鬥中，沒有比川普總統更重要的夥伴。我感謝他。感謝他大膽的領導。」"We will continue to defend our state. We will continue to win because we have no other choice. In this battle against the barbarians, we've had no greater partner than President Trump. I thank him. I thank him for his bold leadership," he said.

孤立加深DEEPENING ISOLATION

近3年前，哈瑪斯主導對以色列發動攻擊後，以色列為此在加薩開戰；自此以來，以色列面臨的外交孤立日益加深。Israel has faced deepening diplomatic isolation since launching its war in Gaza in response to the Hamas-led attacks on Israel nearly three years ago.

國際刑事法院在2024年對納坦雅胡、他當時的國防部長以及哈瑪斯當時的軍事指揮官發布逮捕令，因此納坦雅胡無法前往許多國家。Netanyahu is unable to travel to many countries because of an International Criminal Court arrest warrants issued against him and his then-defense minister as well as the then-military commander of Hamas in 2024.

本月稍早，曾經堅定支持以色列的盟友英國、法國和加拿大宣布制裁以色列在被占領約旦河西岸的屯墾區，華府對此反應平淡。Earlier this month, once-steadfast allies Britain, France and Canada announced sanctions targeting Israeli settlements in the occupied West Bank, which drew a muted response from Washington.

納坦雅胡說：「這些國家的領導人選擇屈服於反猶暴民。他們選擇軟弱，選擇綏靖。」"The leaders of these countries have chosen to succumb to the antisemitic mobs. They've chosen weakness. They've chosen appeasement," Netanyahu said.

對於以色列屯墾者在被占領約旦河西岸日益惡化的暴力行為，他輕描淡寫，稱那只是「少數年輕的少年犯，大約150人，他們丟石頭、砍倒橄欖樹」。He played down worsening violence in the occupied West Bank by Israeli settlers, describing it as "a handful of young juvenile delinquents, about 150 in number, who throw stones, who chop down olive trees."

「偶爾……他們會縱火。我無法忍受這種事。我不會容忍私刑。我們是法治國家。」"Occasionally … they lit some fires. I can't stand that. I won't stand for vigilantism. We're a country of law."
