https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/us-bars-palestinian-leader-abbas-un-allies-pledge-statehood-2025-08-29/

"The United States said on Friday it will not allow Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas to travel to New York next month for a United Nations gathering of world leaders, where several U.S. allies are set to recognize Palestine as a state.

A State Department official said Abbas and about 80 other Palestinians would be affected by the decision to deny and revoke visas from members of the umbrella Palestine Liberation Organization and the West Bank-based Palestinian Authority.

Abbas had been planning to travel to New York for the annual high-level U.N. General Assembly at U.N. headquarters in Manhattan. He was also set to attend a summit there - hosted by France and Saudi Arabia - where Britain, France, Australia and Canada have pledged to formally recognize a Palestinian state.

Abbas' office said it was astonished by the visa decision and argued that it violated the U.N. "headquarters agreement.""

What a disgusting move. This is the meeting where France, England, Australia, Canada, etc will recognize Palestine for the first time, yet now the Palestinian representatives can't even attend it!

Because its framed as fighting anti-semitism to use as a scapegoat to get more power.

Even though most of the people pushing the palestine = anti-semites are rich and/or christian evangelicals.

You have to realize that "America First" is and has always been a front to be racist. Even Dr. Seuss knew this like 90 years ago.

Believe it or not, that actually happened before.

In 1988, The US didn't allow Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat to attend and give a speech, so the UN changed the location of the entire meeting to Geneva so that he could come and give the speech.

That was during the cold war though, so sadly I doubt that they will do that this time :(.

well you've got to keep in mind that a huge amount of voters and lobbying groups are part of a christian cult that are obsessed with israel gaining power and land.

Trump justifies this by the fact that they worked with ICJ and ICC.

well if we're banning because of relations to terrorist groups then we should probably ban israel form the UN seeing that they funded hamas for decades.

Since the US can't be kicked out of the UN, maybe a replacement should be founded. Just like how there used to be a League of Nations that got replaced by the UN. Make another replacement, and don't let the US join.

The US never wanted to leave the UN. They wanted to (and did) leave some UN programs, like UNRWA for example.

Dont even need to ban them from joining, just dont give them (or anyone, for that matter) veto powers and dont put the headquarters in US territory.
