聯合國，9月24日（路透）——以色列總理班雅明・內塔尼亞胡週四在聯合國強力為以色列在區域內的行動辯護。在數十名代表陸續退席之際，他試圖反擊日益加深的國際孤立；他即將面對一場可能落敗的選舉。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.

這場退席凸顯內塔尼亞胡面臨的多重壓力。他一方面因加薩戰爭在國際上承受日益升高的批評，另一方面也在國內為10月27日投票的選舉爭取連任。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.

內塔尼亞胡開始發言時，外界對以色列作為的分歧展露無遺，數十名代表退席抗議。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：「以色列人民生生不息。」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."

內塔尼亞胡在演說中痛批紐約市長佐蘭・曼達尼（Zohran Mamdani）稱他為戰爭罪犯，也批評西歐領袖屈從於他所稱的「反猶暴民」，並指控卡達和土耳其都在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內塔尼亞胡談到曼達尼時說：「你試圖阻止我來到這裡。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.

曼達尼競選時承諾，如果內塔尼亞胡造訪美國最大城市，將以涉嫌戰爭罪將他逮捕；但他後來表示，自己認定並無這麼做的法律權限。本週，曼達尼形容內塔尼亞胡是「對巴勒斯坦人發動恐怖種族滅絕的設計者」。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月就任後，內塔尼亞胡首次造訪紐約。他說：「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，曼達尼否認這一點。He accused Mamdani of supporting Hamas militants, something Mamdani has denied.

內塔尼亞胡說：「對所有散布這些關於我的國家、關於我們英勇士兵謊言的人，無論他們坐在這個會場，或坐在紐約反猶市長的辦公室裡，我要這麼說：你們真可恥！」"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.

曼達尼在聲明中表示：「如同他一次又一次所做的，內塔尼亞胡總理利用演說重複毫無根據的謊言，意在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這項事實：他仍是國際刑事法院逮捕令的對象，該逮捕令指控他涉嫌戰爭罪及危害人類罪。」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.”

卡達也駁斥其試圖讓公眾輿論轉向反以色列的指控。卡達外交部發言人在X上表示，內塔尼亞胡一再攻擊杜哈，是為了轉移外界對其地面政策責任的注意。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.

內塔尼亞胡政治前途岌岌可危NETANYAHU'S POLITICAL FUTURE ON THE LINE

距離大選不到5週，內塔尼亞胡發表約40分鐘演說，內容近似競選演說，並在以色列4家主要電視頻道的晚間黃金時段現場直播。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.

內塔尼亞胡辦公室在聲明中表示，在演說前，他的政府出資在曼哈頓各地設置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，內塔尼亞胡所屬陣營在選前落後競爭對手。他利用這場演說展示他所稱以色列的七線作戰，包括2月下旬由美以聯合攻擊揭開序幕的對伊朗戰爭。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一樣，內塔尼亞胡使用道具，舉起一具與攻擊有關的呼叫器；該攻擊造成黎巴嫩境內獲伊朗支持的真主黨成員死傷。他也展示一台星鏈衛星網路接收器，稱會把它留給伊朗代表團。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：「這樣，等他們遲早叛逃時，也能在社群媒體上自由講述自己的故事。」他並補充，伊朗當局遭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.

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.

內塔尼亞胡此次短暫訪美是為了在聯合國發表演說，而且罕見地沒有安排與美國總統唐納・川普會面；他在演說中稱讚川普。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：「我們將繼續保衛我們的國家。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。感謝他的果敢領導。」"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.

孤立日益加深DEEPENING ISOLATION

近3年前，以色列為回應哈瑪斯主導對以色列發動的攻擊而在加薩開戰以來，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.

由於國際刑事法院2024年對內塔尼亞胡、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，內塔尼亞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，一度是以色列堅定盟友的英國、法國和加拿大宣布，針對以色列在被占領約旦河西岸的屯墾區實施制裁，華府對此反應冷淡。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.

內塔尼亞胡說：「這些國家的領導人選擇屈從於反猶暴民。他們選擇了軟弱。他們選擇了綏靖。」"The leaders of these countries have chosen to succumb to the antisemitic mobs. They've chosen weakness. They've chosen appeasement," Netanyahu said.

他淡化以色列屯墾者在被占領約旦河西岸日益惡化的暴力，形容那是「少數年輕少年犯，人數約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……他們會放幾把火。我無法容忍。我不會容忍私刑行為。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."
