Far-Right Zionist and War Criminal Ben-Gvir was planning on visiting New York City and was ready to attend the United Nations Chief of Police Summit 2026 on July 7 and July 8. This came with massive pushback by the pro-Palestinian advocacy groups and communities in NYC that saw Ben-Gvir visiting New York while committing attrocities in Gaza and directly committing crimes in the various torture prisions in Israel as a grave misstep of justice in a peaceful city like NYC. In those prisons, Israel holds over 10,000 Palestinian prisoners, many of them who were tried under military court and never given a jury. Along with the reported horrendous conditions in those prisons and the recent laws pushed by Ben-Gvir to call for death penalties only for Palestinian prisoners, the move to come to NYC was very contentious. As of 4PM today, he has cancelled his trip and will no longer be attending the summit. submitted by /u/MountainManUIM [link] [comments]
