HOWEVER, the UN is currently still in the 69th Session of the General Assembly. The muslim is wrong that the General Assembly sessions are not held in April, but ONLY and "ALWAYS" in September. Each session is for a full year.

Another note - the opening of the xxth/nd Sessions are marked by the General Debate -- a week of addresses by the heads of state of every UN member nation. This is what happens at the opening of every session in September. It does NOT mean that the General Assembly is ONLY for one week in September. The session lasts a full year. It is only the General Debate, the addresses by every member nation, which occurs each September at the start of the new, year-long session.


Here's a link to a PDF of the Journal to prove, yet again, it WAS an official meeting of 69th Session of the General Assembly.

I'll copy and paste what it says here as well:

General Assembly Sixty-ninth session

High-level thematic debate on “Promoting Tolerance and Reconciliation: The Potential for Religion in Building Bridges of Tolerance and Reconciliation”

Opening segment: Statement by the Secretary-General of the United Nations
09:00 General Assembly Hall

Plenary meeting: Statements by religious leaders
09:10 General Assembly Hall

As for this rubbish that the room was nearly empty and world leaders weren't there so it couldn't have been an actual or official General Assembly Session: Whether or not foreign leaders were there doesn't negate that it was, per the UN itself, an official meeting of the 69th Session of the General Assembly.

Is anyone really shocked that foreign leaders care little about religious persecution? Also, this is why each member nation has delegates. With exception of the General Debates in September (and Security Council meetings), most heads of state rarely visit the UN.

Lol i know exactly what the meeting was. I'm the one who posted the cam footage for the whole dry empty day. You must have missed that. Dont blame you. Unless you are one of those ghost hunter dudes its next to impossible to suffer through that footage.

Whatever it was called on the brochure it is evident based on the rows (and rows and more rows) that the assembly wasnt assembled. An assembly that is not assembled is not a meeting of an assembly. So get this: if you call a meeting, and nobody comes to that meeting, then you say later "we met, look, i called a meeting" newsflash: you did not actually meet. Very simple really. Unless you're UPC where the tale is more important than the pictures LOL

Not all of the seats were empty. Also, as has been pointed out, were you there in person or did you view on the live webcast?

The majority of delegates and heads of state do not come to the UN for every meeting of the General Assembly. It's why the UN has a live broadcast.

The webcast for the entire day is on the link I posted and the empty seat pictures posted were from that day. Are you one of those people who watch the same movie over and over expecting a different plot or ending?
