“What would they do if their children were slaughtered and their girls were raped? But the United Nations and its vast spider web of agencies, bodies and committees stood idly by in silence? take a moment to think about this. To the briefer tasked with protecting all women, girls and children throughout the world, presumably including those who are Israeli and Jewish, I again want her to look me in the eye and explain to me why she has been silent in the face of acts of mass rape, sexual violence, brutal torture, kidnapping and murder. How is it? How is it that her briefing is so one-sided when they all know that Israel does everything in its power to mitigate civilian casualties, while Hamas does everything in its power to murder civilians, both Gazans and Israelis? She should not answer me.”

“On the other hand, when it comes to fabrications supplied by Palestinian terrorists — and in this case, directly from Hamas in Gaza — the United Nations treats those numbers as God’s truth, without any form of verification. This is a conflict that started before the United Nations was even established, and throughout all these years, the United Nations blindly accepts every claim and figure from one side and one side only, without any verification mechanism, while ignoring or remaining indifferent to all Israeli data, and that is what ends up in United Nations reports. That is what the Council is briefed with. I ask all Council members to process what I have just said. For all those who do not understand why Israelis call out the United Nations, that is the reason. What would they do if they were in my place?”

“Is UN-Women not charged with ensuring that all women and girls live a life free from all forms of violence? Does the banner of UN- Women’s website not currently say “#NoExcuses”? Has the world not come to believe women? Has not the United Nations? To the United Nations and its agencies, Israeli women are not women. Israeli children are not children. The United Nations, with Secretary-General Guterres at the helm, refuses to report on murdered, raped and kidnapped Israelis. Every United Nations body stands up solely for the Palestinians, while dehumanizing Israelis. That is the policy. The United Nations by choice refuses to accept Israeli numbers of statistics. The ridiculous claim is that Israeli casualties either are not part of the body’s mandate, or that they have no way to verify facts provided by Israel.”

“Nearly 50 days have gone by since those atrocities were committed — since young girls were savagely violated. Yet the world is still waiting to hear from UN-Women a clear public condemnation of Hamas sexual crimes. Shame on UN-Women. Is UN-Women not charged with ensuring that, and I quote from their website, “all women and girls —”

“I sent this picture from a video of Naama Levi, who was dragged out of the trunk of a jeep by a Hamas terrorist, wearing sweatpants soaked in a blood around her backside. I also sent this picture of Shani Louk, who was dancing at the peace festival before she was abducted and murdered by Hamas. This is what her body looked like with a Hamas terrorist on top of her. Look at her. Look at Shani. If they want to discuss women in conflict and women’s rights and dignity — what about the dignity of Naama Levy and Shani Louk? What about their rights as women? Sadly, to our briefers, the horrors endured by those young women are not worth mentioning. After all, they are Israelis, and as today’s briefing has made abundantly clear, Israeli victims do not matter.”

“In a recent letter to Executive Director Bahous, I not only included written testimonies, but also concrete visual evidence — pictures of young, naked Israeli women being paraded around Gaza as the crowds jeered and cheered. UN-Women also received links to interrogations of Hamas terrorists, who said loud and clear that they had been instructed to rape Israeli women. Just two days ago, Executive Director Bahous received another letter from me with additional evidence of mass rape and sexual violence perpetrated by Hamas. That included a first responder’s testimony of finding girls with their pants around their knees, semen on their back and bullet holes in their heads and testimonies of pathologists identifying corpses, from young girls to elderly women, raped so violently that their pelvic bones were shattered.”

“They overlooked the 1,300 Israelis brutally massacred on 7 October and the 8,650 wounded that are still being hospitalized. In a briefing on women and children, our briefers intentionally — and I will explain why I am saying this — intentionally refused to thoroughly brief the Council on the barbaric acts of torture, sexual violence and rape perpetrated by Hamas against Israeli women and girls. I say “intentionally” because I have sent two letters to Executive Director Bahous extensively detailing those appalling war crimes. Yet not only did I receive no response, she also did not see it fit to detail those crimes here before the Council. So yes, that was an intentional act of omission.”

“That is who the bodies here today hardly have a single word of criticism against. I therefore ask again — where have the briefers been for all these years? Where are their voices now? Why are Hamas’s crimes almost non-existent in this briefing, when Hamas and only Hamas is solely responsible for the situation in Gaza? There is no other explanation for that other than apathy towards Gazans, coupled with burning hatred for Israel. This is not a briefing. This is an inquisition. I would now like to turn to the second elephant in the room. Our briefers today graciously decided to mention, thank God, the hostages in Gaza, among them women, children and the elderly. They weakly called for their return — pure lip service. But the briefers ignored a very significant fact.”

“They want it to ignore their crimes while pressuring a law-abiding democracy. Hamas exploits Gazans, weaponizes casualties and seeks to co-opt the United Nations to tie our hands and prevent us from eliminating them so that they can continue murdering and slaughtering in the future. That is their script. I just cannot understand why United Nations bodies are so willing to follow it. And that sick phenomenon of exploiting children is carried out on the streets of Gaza every day. This is a photo that was taken a few days ago in Gaza. These savage Hamas terrorists are walking around in broad daylight, armed and in uniform after effectively strapping children to themselves as live body armour — as human shields. That is the enemy that Israel is defending itself against.”

“Why has that child abuse never bothered UNICEF? There is absolutely no chance that UNICEF is unaware of this. I therefore ask Executive Director Russell, where has her organization been all this time? Rockets have been found in children’s bedrooms in Gaza. Rocket launchers were located inside a scouts’ youth movement clubhouse. Missile-manufacturing facilities have been found under mosques, and caches of assault rifles have been found in UNRWA schools. We have not heard any condemnation by UNICEF of Hamas’s exploitation of Gazan children as human shields. Where is it? Hamas wrote a script for the international community, and United Nations bodies are playing their parts perfectly. Hamas seeks to increase the number of civilian casualties in order to coax the international community to pressure Israel.”

“Has Executive Director Russell never seen this picture before? Is she unaware of the terror summer camps that Hamas runs every year in Gaza to indoctrinate children to murder? So many Gazan children were born into a culture of hate — a culture that glorifies violence and educates kids to murder. It is a death cult that puts martyrdom ahead of life, coexistence and the pursuit of peace. How many UNICEF reports have been written on that? None. I am telling everyone — none. While we teach our children to love and accept others, the children of Gaza — and they are not the ones to blame — are taught that the murder of Jews and Israel’s annihilation is their life goal. They are educated on that in their schools — yes, including schools of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East schools.”

“Over the past weeks, they have all woken up — but sadly, not for the right reasons. All those vast, well-funded United Nations bodies are suddenly up in arms about the situation in Gaza because now they can blame Israel. The women and children of Gaza are their concern only if they can weaponize their suffering against Israel — and yes, they suffer. That is shameful. UNICEF does not really care about Gazan children, and UN-Women does not really care about Gazan women. If they did, they would not have remained quiet for the past 16 years as Hamas ruled Gaza with an iron fist. I ask Council members to look at this picture. It is of Yahya Sinwar, the leader of Hamas, and the child he is holding is a victim of UNICEF’s indifference. A picture is worth 1,000 words, and this says all we need to know about Hamas’s treatment of children in Gaza.”

“Where was its uproar at Hamas turning children’s hospitals and schools into weapons caches? Where was UN-Women’s outrage at Hamas treating women like property and using them as human shields? Why is it that only that they have decided to talk about the women and children of Gaza? It is not as if Gazans have been living in a utopia of human rights that, like the impression being made by the briefers, was upended by Israel five weeks ago. How can they have the audacity to suddenly remember Gaza’s women and children, after ignoring them for so many years? Under the rule of Hamas, the people of Gaza have been continuously exploited. Yet not a single utterance of condemnation has been heard from those bodies against Hamas’s reign of terror and their poisonous brainwashing of children.”

“I do not expect the Palestinian representative to tell them the truth, that Hamas is solely responsible for their situation, and that once Hamas is gone, the future can be brighter for everyone. Today’s briefing focuses on women and children. Let us put aside the fact that the war in Gaza began with Hamas’s mass murder, rape and mutilation of Israeli women and children. Let us put aside the fact that there are still Israeli women and children, including babies, being held hostage in Hamas terror tunnels. As members heard today, those are mere footnotes to our briefers and to the United Nations. But right now I want to ask one simple question: where has the United Nations been for the past 16 years? Where was UNICEF’s outcry over Hamas’s indoctrination of children to become martyrs?”

“But make no mistake — as soon as the pause ends, we will continue to strive towards our goals with full force. We will not stop until we eliminate all of Hamas’s terror probabilities and ensure that they can no longer rule Gaza and threaten both Israeli civilians and the women and children of Gaza. The Palestinian representative cannot tell the Council that he, too, does not want Hamas to rule Gaza. I hope the Council takes the days of this pause to advance a real solution that will help bring an end to this war, that will guarantee security rather than strengthen the terrorists committed to Israel’s annihilation. This is the main concern. The time has come for the Council to tell the truth to the people of Gaza.”

“This war did not start on its own on 8 October. It started on 7 October with a deliberate and planned massacre, the likes of which the Jewish people has not suffered since the Holocaust. My suggestion to end it, worthy of discussion here, and any suggestion to end it worthy of discussion here, is only one that will bring home all of our hostages and prevent such atrocities from happening again. No country in a similar situation would agree to anything less. The hostage deal that was approved last night is clear proof that Israel is willing to take far- reaching steps. Try to comprehend what Israel agreed to do last night. We are releasing terrorists who have been convicted of harming Israelis in return for women and children who were savagely abducted from their homes by these Hamas Nazis. This is the deal.”

“The Security Council’s primary role is security. Yet, for close to 50 days, the Council has not advanced a solution related to its mandate. We have heard here politicized condemnations, baseless suggestions, distorted calls for calm and extensive outcry over the humanitarian situation of only one side. Yet what we have not heard was a single real solution. We can have many more briefings, debates and emergency sessions, but if the Council cannot suggest, united, a solution that also ensures the safety of Israelis, then it does not address the security of both Israelis and Gazans alike. I reiterate: this war can end right now, today, without one more shot being fired. If Hamas returns all of the hostages and turns in all those who took part in the savage massacre, the war would be over immediately.”

“That cannot be tolerated. Israel is fighting a war for its very future and existence. We are combating a genocidal Nazi-like terror organization. Hamas has publicly declared that it will carry out further atrocities if it is given the chance. The only way to ensure that those horrors are never repeated again is by eliminating Hamas’s capabilities — that is the realization of our collective oath of “never again”. Israel will continue targeting Hamas while working towards solutions for Gazan civilians. That, and not anything else, should be the focus of this meeting.”

“While Israel is at war with Hamas — and only with Hamas — it is also defending itself against murderers and numerous other terror threats: the Palestinian Islamic Jihad in Gaza, Hizbullah in Lebanon, the Houthis in Yemen and the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps in Syria. Those are all tentacles of the same genocidal octopus — the Ayatollah regime in Iran. The Ayatollah has publicly praised the 7 October massacre, and Iran has armed, funded and trained all the terror groups attacking Israel. Nevertheless, the Foreign Minister of that murderous regime visited the United Nations only a week and a half ago and was given the red carpet treatment. He was loudly applauded in the General Assembly and even met with the Secretary- General, who shook his hand with a big smile. The United Nations has completely lost its moral compass.”

“If any United Nations official truly cared for Gazans, they would be working hand in hand with us to advance solutions, not condemning Israel for the measures taken to provide safety. I reiterate: Hamas is supplying all the information. Israeli experts are either ignored or baselessly mistrusted, and verified facts, including video, audio and intelligence-based information, are deliberately omitted from Council members’ briefings. The words of genocidal terrorists are accepted at face value, while the irrefutable evidence of a law-abiding democracy is tossed aside. Tragically, United Nations mechanisms have become terror enablers. We must no longer accept that.”

“We prefer to take proactive steps because, unlike Hamas and United Nations bodies, we cherish life and hold it sacred. That is why Israel is in advanced talks with the United Arab Emirates, the International Committee of the Red Cross and other European countries regarding the establishment of field hospitals and floating hospital ships. Israel facilitated the Jordanian airdrop of medical aid to hospitals in northern Gaza. Thousands of tons of medical equipment and supplies have already entered Gaza. Israel constantly shows that it is willing to take any step to evacuate the wounded from the war zone of northern Gaza to safer areas in the south. Sadly, Israel is doing far more for the well-being of Gazans than the WHO or any other United Nations body. Yet that is not the focus of this meeting.”

“By adopting Hamas’s narrative of evil and telling patients to remain in an active war zone, the WHO prefers to endanger the lives of Palestinians rather than save them. What is even more shocking is that Dr. Rik Peeperkorn, the WHO representative for Gaza, has until today refused to be briefed by Israel. We have urged Dr. Peppercorn numerous times to speak with us about the undeniable subterranean city of terror underneath Al Shifa Hospital. Yet we have received no answer. Instead, Dr. Peeperkorn and WHO prefer to parrot Hamas lies, while refusing to speak to any Israeli experts. WHO teams have made it clear that they prefer to reward Hamas’s strategy of exploiting hospitals and, by doing so, the WHO is directly complicit in giving impunity to that despicable practice. Israel is taking action to mitigate civilian casualties.”

“Yet even though it has been proven beyond a shadow of a doubt that Palestinian terrorists were responsible, no effort has been made by the WHO to change the libel they immediately adopted. We all remember that within minutes of the Islamic Jihad rocket attack on Al Ahli Hospital the Hamas Ministry of Health immediately reported 500 fatalities. We now know that the number was a total lie, but United Nations bodies still rely on such fabrications. I beg Council members to stop believing Hamas’s falsehoods. Last week we were shocked to hear Dr. Michael Ryan, the Executive Director of the WHO Health Emergencies Programme, call on Gazans to remain in hospitals that serve as Hamas terror bases.”

“Are the hostages, including women, children, toddlers and the elderly, not worthy of the Council’s attention? How about the trauma of tens of thousands of Israelis or the thousands of wounded Israelis still being treated in hospitals or the hundreds of thousands of Israelis who have been forced to leave their homes since the massacre? Why does Mr. Jilani not tell the Council about the ambulances that Hamas abuses for transporting terrorists and weapons? Is that an inconvenient truth that he chooses to stay silent about? When the parking lot of Al Ahli Hospital was hit by a Palestinian Islamic Jihad rocket, the World Health Organization (WHO) jumped on the opportunity to falsely condemn Israel.”

“Its very own terror operatives give libellous information, which, sadly, cannot be verified by anyone other than Hamas, to United Nations bodies. The information is passed on to United Nations officials, and then the information is used to brief Council members. Is it not concerning to Council members that in Dr. Tedros Ghebreyesus’s briefing not once did he mention Hamas’s exploitation of hospitals and ambulances for terror? Should that not raise a red flag? We are also being briefed by the Director General of the Palestine Red Crescent Society. Yet there is no Israeli representative of Magen David Adom, the Israeli Red Cross, briefing the Council. Is that not mind-boggling? Does that not reek of bias? Do Israeli lives matter less?”

“Hamas has ensured that every square metre of Gaza is under its complete reign of terror. Many ambulances drivers are Hamas members. Local contributors to international media are Hamas members. We saw this week that innocent photojournalists for Reuters and the New York Times not only documented Hamas’s horrors but crossed into Israel to film them with the terrorists themselves. Hamas rules all of Gaza with an iron fist, and Hamas also rules all of the information coming out of the Strip. Just because briefings are written in official United Nations documents, it does not change the fact that the content is based on information supplied by Hamas. Hamas knows that the Council ingests its poisonous falsehoods. That is part of its script.”

“Who is it that supplies the United Nations with those so-called facts? Is that information coming from unbiased and impartial third parties? The answer is no. Every piece of information regarding the situation on the ground that the Council receives comes from Hamas, not international United Nations employees in Gaza. I will remind the Council that Hamas, a genocidal terror organization, controls every facet of Gaza. Every number provided by the so-called Ministry of Health is Hamas. Many UNRWA workers in Gaza are themselves members of Hamas. The time has come to bust the myth of United Nations-supplied facts. The Council is being spoon-fed lies by the very same terrorist organization that deliberately murdered and maimed thousands of innocent Israelis just 34 days ago.”

They do not reflect the situation on the ground. Yes, diplomatic niceties require us to thank them for their work, but sadly, they are relaying falsehoods that are completely detached from reality.

“There is no clearer proof that Israel is doing everything possible to provide solutions to mitigate civilian harm, while Hamas is committed to murdering both Israeli and Gazan civilians. Israel is fighting a war that it did not start or want. On 6 October there was a ceasefire in place, yet Hamas violated that ceasefire with the brutal slaughter, rape and burning of 1,400 Israelis. Despite their unbelievable claims to the contrary, Hamas is fully responsible for the situation in Gaza. They are fully responsible for Gaza’s civilian population. They are fully responsible for Gaza’s resources, and they are fully responsible for exploiting hospitals and ambulances as weapons of terror. While Hamas must be held fully accountable, there is another entity, sadly, that is complicit — the United Nations.”

“Israel is providing safe passage for Gazan civilians to leave an active war zone, while Hamas is actively working to prevent civilians from leaving. In footage that surfaced today, Gazan civilians were waving white flags as they tried to leave Al-Nasr hospital. Yet they were forced to stay after Hamas opened fire on them. Israel is at war with Hamas, and we have gone above and beyond to mitigate civilian casualties. For Israel, life is sacred. Yet for Hamas, death is sacred, particularly civilian deaths. Will that be the focus of today’s meeting? Will the Council condemn Hamas for those crimes? Over a week ago, Israel formed a task force to establish field hospitals in southern Gaza for all those in need. That team is in touch with countries around the world, and we are already seeing progress.”

“Those terrorists make it clear that Hamas co-opts those vehicles and sensitive locations for their war machines, as they know that Israel will not attack them. Over the past 16 years, Hamas has turned every inch of Gaza into a terror trap. Nothing is sacred to those jihadist Nazis. Every medical worker, doctor and patient in Gaza is a human shield for the Hamas terrorists. That is abominable. It is a war crime of epic proportions. Will this be the focus of today’s meeting? How can we possibly hold a briefing on the medical situation in Gaza without making this the primary issue of this meeting? For weeks, Israel has asked all civilians to temporarily evacuate northern Gaza. We have dropped leaflets; we have made phone calls; we have sent text messages. For days, there have been designated corridors for civilians to evacuate south.”

“Will that be raised in today’s meeting? Over the past week, Israel has exposed to the world that the Hamas Nazis main command headquarters is located within and under Al Shifa Hospital. We have provided footage of terrorists, exiting tunnels adjacent to and underneath hospitals. We have shown videos of Hamas/ISIS using ambulances as a means of transporting weapons and terrorists. We have shared intelligence, including phone calls between terrorists stating not only that they are located under and inside hospitals, but that they also control the fuel supply to medical centres, which they exploit, first and foremost, for their terror activity. We have shared footage of Hamas terrorists who openly admit that Al Shifa Hospital and other hospitals serve as bases and that ambulances are used as taxis for terrorists.”

Will it condemn Hamas for murdering Israeli medical personnel? Will it call out Hamas for torching Israeli ambulances? We have videos of Hamas Nazis shooting at ambulances so as to thwart any attempt to save innocents. Will the Council call out Hamas for indiscriminately firing rockets at Israeli hospitals? After all, this has been Hamas’s modus operandi for years. Will that be the focus of today’s meeting? What about Hamas’s exploitation of hospitals, ambulances and medical clinics for terror in Gaza?”

“Thousands of Jewish homes, hospitals, schools, houses of worship and businesses were ransacked and burned to the ground. Israelis endured another such pogrom five weeks ago, yet here we are 34 days later and the Council still has not condemned Hamas’s heinous planned massacre of Israeli civilians. Had the Council existed in 1938 in its current form, I doubt that the response would be much different. Today’s briefing focuses on the targeting of hospitals. Just two days ago, Barzilai hospital, in Ashkelon, suffered a direct, intentional hit from Hamas rockets. Hamas’s intentional targeting of hospitals is a war crime. Deliberate attacks on medical facilities, the murder of medical teams, paramedics and ambulances sent to treat the wounded were rampant during the Hamas slaughter. Yet those horrors have yet to be addressed by the Council.”

“At the outset, I would like to thank you, Mr. President, for your consideration in permitting me to address the Council earlier, in the light of the approaching Sabbath. It is deeply appreciated. The holy Jewish Sabbath is a day of peace and rest. It is the day on which God rested following the creation of the world. Yet, no Jew will ever forget the Sabbath of 7 October. It has been seared into the collective trauma of the Jewish people forever. Exactly 85 years ago today, another traumatic atrocity was burned into the Jewish people’s history. Between 9 and 10 November 1938, the Jewish communities of Germany and Austria suffered Kristallnacht, the Nazis November pogrom, which was the first hyperviolent exposure of the Nazi’s murderous hatred of Jews. Nearly 100 Jews were murdered.”

“We all know Hamas’s intentions, and we all know that, should they be given another chance, they would commit the same atrocities over and over again, but this time on a much larger scale. Yet our Organization, founded in the wake of the Holocaust, fails to act on its founding principles. Calling for a ceasefire is no different than calling off D-Day in 1944. Israel will no longer live with the brutal Hamas Nazis on its border. We will not have savage ISIS Hamas death squads invading our homeland again. I reiterate that Israel’s operation in Gaza is not a response to the events of 7 October; it is an act of self-defence to ensure its future. The Israeli people are strong. We are unbreakable. And we are not going anywhere. Many have tried to destroy us — the Babylonians, the Greeks, the Romans and the Nazis — to name just a few.”

“Yet Council members continue to insist on calling this meeting a discussion of the Palestinian question. Can anyone here provide a solution to the Palestinian question as long as Hamas controls Gaza? Calling for an immediate ceasefire is ultimately asking Israel to tie its hands and maintain Hamas’s rule in Gaza. Is that the future that the Council wants for the people of Gaza? I am sorry to say it, but if the Council had existed on 6 June 1944, it would have intensely debated how much electricity and fuel the citizens of Munich had as the Allies approached the shores of Normandy. It would be fixated on debating the death toll of Germans versus British casualties. The Council would be calling for a ceasefire before the Russians retook Stalingrad.”

“While their people live in poverty, Hamas ISIS terrorists operate inside and under hospitals, including — and let me reiterate this — Al Shifa Hospital, which houses their command centre. Hamas is preventing Gazans from heading south to leave an active war zone. Hamas is holding roughly half a million litres of fuel right now as we speak, next to the Rafah crossing. All of that can be verified. In any discussion about the lack of fuel, the Council’s demands should be directed at Hamas. Israel has approved dozens — more than dozens — of daily trucks of humanitarian supplies, including food, water and medical equipment. But we refuse to supply the enemy, Hamas, with any aid, in accordance with international law. Hamas is the root cause of the situation in Gaza.”

“The Hamas Nazis have spent the past 16 years ruling Gaza, abusing Palestinians and butchering anyone who opposes them. When Hamas took power in Gaza in 2007 — and all members know that very well — they murdered hundreds of Palestinians with their own hands. They threw them off rooftops. They used Palestinians as human shields, building terror bases under hospitals and missile launchers next to schools. What does the Council expect us do? They hoard medical supplies, food and fuel for themselves when those resources could benefit their people — I assume Mr. Lazzarini forgot to tell members about that. They also deleted the tweet that was telling people about it. Hamas’s leaders live in luxury in Doha and Istanbul. They do not even live in the Gaza Strip.”

Aside from empty words paid as lip service for media purposes, Secretary-General Guterres has not publicly demanded even once that the terrorists of Islamic State in Iraq and the Sham (ISIS)/Hamas allow the International Committee of the Red Cross to at the very least verify some sign of life of the hostages as a condition that without such a step, Hamas will be held accountable for the humanitarian situation in Gaza. How can that be? Why are the humanitarian needs of Gazans the only issue that everyone here is focused on? Is that not the bare minimum that must be called for from those monsters? Where is the Council’s voice as a Council?”

“In the days leading up to and following the 7 October massacres, the Führer Khamenei continued to spread his poisonous, genocidal ideologies around the world. He tweeted about the end of Israel. He said that whoever normalized relations with Israel would lose. He claimed that Israel was dying, and on the day of the massacre he called for the eradication of Israel, alongside a video of Israelis running for their lives as his Hamas Einsatzgruppen mowed them down with machine guns. If Hitler had a Twitter account, it would look exactly like Khamenei’s. Shockingly, despite the blatant, genocidal Nazism of the Islamist Reich of Iran, the Secretary-General and United Nations officials, who are being applauded here, are still meeting with Iranian officials without a word of condemnation for their support of genocide. What a disgrace.”

“Then too the world was silent. We must understand where we are right now, comprehend the weight of this moment and internalize the fact that the world is standing at a crossroads, just as it was in the 1930s. Will the Council take the approach of Chamberlain and appease the Nazis and their sympathizers? Or will it take Churchill’s approach and fight evil with blood, toil, tears and sweat? Israel has made its choice. We were attacked by the Hamas Nazis. We were shown that genocide and Jew hatred had not died with Hitler. It bubbled and grew until it invaded our homeland. But the difference between 1939 and today is that today Jews have a strong State and a powerful military. We are not defenceless. We are lions of Judah, and we will defend ourselves against those who seek to annihilate us.”

“And that is precisely why we have seen the most staggering rise in hatred of Jews since the Nuremberg laws and their aftermath. The antisemites have been empowered. They now know that the slaughter of Jews in their beds will be met with silence. They have been so galvanized by the Organization’s inaction that they cannot wait to butcher Jews themselves. Calls for gassing Jews are being heard in Sydney. Chants for a judenrein Palestine from the river to the sea can be heard from California to New York. Islamist battle cries against Jews are being screamed in London, Brussels and Paris. An airport in Dagestan, in the Russian Federation, was flooded yesterday by Islamist terrorist supporters searching for Jews to lynch. That is precisely where the world stood as the Nazis began their rampage, precisely the same moment.”

“From this day on, every time they look at me, they will remember what staying silent in the face of evil means. Just as my grandparents and the grandparents of millions of Jews did, from now on my team and I will wear yellow stars. We will wear this star until the Council condemns the atrocities of Hamas and demands the immediate release of our hostages. We will walk with a yellow star as a symbol of pride, a reminder that we swore to fight back to defend ourselves. “Never again” is now. In the face of the silence at the United Nations, our enemies have been emboldened. They have seen the General Assembly applauding efforts to prevent the Jews from defending themselves. They have heard the Secretary-General express understanding for the Nazi slaughter.”

“Millions of Israelis are living every day under constant and indiscriminate rocket fire in both the south and the north of Israel, at the hands of Hamas, Hizbullah and other jihadists. Does the Council have nothing to say about that? Is that not also part of the situation in the Middle East? When my grandfather Chaim and his children were sent to Auschwitz, the world stayed silent. When his babies were sent to the gas chambers, the world stayed silent. When their bodies were burned together with those of millions of children, Jewish and others, the world was silent. Today, after innocent Jewish babies have been burned alive, the Council is still silent. Some Member States have learned nothing over the past 80 years. Some of them have forgotten why this organ was established. I will therefore remind them.”

“Even if the Council insists on continuing to call this meeting “The situation in the Middle East, including the Palestinian question” for the rest of time, it will not change the truth. This meeting is only about the situation in the Middle East and the Iranian threat. It has nothing to do with the Palestinians. Three weeks ago, humankind witnessed Iran’s Hamas death squads in action. As was done at Babiy Yar, they exterminated Jews in the hundreds as if they were insects. Hamas Nazis deliberately sliced open a pregnant woman’s belly, removed her foetus and stabbed it before its mother’s eyes while she was still alive. And even so the Security Council still has not condemned Hamas for the intentional murder of Israeli civilians. That is unbelievable. More than 250,000 innocent Israeli civilians have been displaced since the war began.”

“Just like the French under the Vichy regime or the Italians under Mussolini, the residents of Gaza, Lebanon, Yemen and Syria are enduring indescribable bloodshed and terror at the hands of Iran’s jihadist Nazi forces. Just as Londoners suffered during the Blitz, Ukrainian civilians are being murdered from the skies with Iranian Nazi weaponry. Like the ever-reaching hand of the Wehrmacht, the Houthi group, an Iranian proxy, attacked Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates. And Albania has been struck by unprovoked Iranian cyberattacks. The Islamic Nazi regime of Iran is responsible for aiding terrorists around the globe and working towards destroying every value our civilized world holds dear. Today the world is watching the rise of a Shia Islamist Reich. Yet just as with the rise of Nazism, the world is silent — deafeningly silent.”

“Hitler’s Third Reich was envisioned as a 1,000-year empire, stretching across continents, just as Khamenei envisions that his radical Shiite hegemony will stretch across the region and beyond. The Ayatollah regime is a modern Nazi regime, and its death squads include Hamas, Palestinian Islamic Jihad, Hizbullah, the Houthis, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard and other savage jihadists. Instead of shouting “Sieg Heil”, those radical Nazi Islamists scream “Death to Israel”, “Death to America” and “Death to England”. We can see it on Khamenei’s Twitter account. Just like the Nazi regime, the Ayatollah regime sows death and destruction everywhere it goes.”

“The members of Hamas are modern day Nazis, from their appalling, inhumane violence to identical genocidal ideologies. Hamas is not seeking a solution to the conflict. It is not interested in dialogue. The only solution Hamas is interested in is the final solution — the annihilation of the Jewish people. And may I remind my colleague: Hamas — not the representative of Palestine — is the ruler of Gaza. Yet Ismail Haniyeh, the leader of Hamas, is no Adolf Hitler. He is not the Führer. He is not the leader of that genocidal death cult hell-bent on world domination. That role, as my colleagues know very well, is held by the Supreme Leader of Iran, the bloodthirsty Ayatollah Khamenei.”
