22:04
Speaker 5: our dear hostages languishing in the dungeons of Gaza, Ladies
22:14
Speaker 5: and gentlemen.
22:18
Speaker 3: Last year.
22:20
Speaker 5: I stood at this podium and I showed this map.
22:25
Speaker 3: This map.
22:28
Speaker 5: It shows the curse of Iran's terror axis. This axis
22:36
Speaker 5: threatened the peace of the entire world, It threatened the
22:41
Speaker 5: stability of our region and the very existence of my country, Israel.
22:48
Speaker 5: Iran was rapidly developing a massive nuclear weapons program and
22:56
Speaker 5: a massive ballistic missile program. Who were meant not only
23:01
Speaker 5: to destroy Israel, they were met also to threaten the
23:05
Speaker 5: United States and blackmailed nations everywhere. From Gaza Yehiya, Sinhoar
23:14
Speaker 5: dispatched waves of ramasterists. They stormed into Israel on October
23:21
Speaker 5: seventh and committed acts of unspeakable savagery. From Lebanon, Rasanaswala
23:31
Speaker 5: had launched thousands of missiles and rockets at our cities,
23:36
Speaker 5: terrorizing our citizens. In Syria, the murderous dictator Asad hosted
23:43
Speaker 5: Iran's forces, tightening a noose of death around our throats.
23:49
Speaker 5: In Yemen, the Jutis launched ballistic missiles at Israel while
23:54
Speaker 5: choking global trade at the mouth of the Red Sea.
23:59
Speaker 5: So what's happen Over the past year. We've hammered the routies,
24:04
Speaker 5: including yesterday, we crushed the bulk of Ramas's terror machine.
24:10
Speaker 5: We crippled his Bala, taking out most of its leaders
24:15
Speaker 5: and much of its weapons. Arsenal, you remember those beepers
24:18
Speaker 5: for pagers. We paid his Bala and believe me, they
24:24
Speaker 5: got the message and thousands of terrorists, thousands of terrorists
24:33
Speaker 5: dropped to the garden. We destroyed us as armaments in Syria,
24:39
Speaker 5: we deterred Iran's Chiat militias in Iraq. And most importantly,
24:44
Speaker 5: and above anything else that I could say to you
24:46
Speaker 5: or that we did in this past year, in this
24:49
Speaker 5: past decade, we devastated Iran's atomic weapons and ballistic missiles programs.
25:04
Speaker 5: So here's where things stand today. Half the Houti leadership
25:15
Speaker 5: in Yemen gone, Yuhasin war in Gaza gone, Nasa Storry,
25:26
Speaker 5: Hassan Asraela in Lebanon gone, the Acid regime in Syria gone,
25:35
Speaker 5: Those mischels, those militias in Iraq, well they're still deterred,
25:40
Speaker 5: and their leaders, if they attack Israel will also be gone.
25:46
Speaker 5: And for Iran's top military commanders and a stop atomic
25:51
Speaker 5: bomb scientists, well they're gone too. Israel's twelve day war
26:07
Speaker 5: with Iran, which I renamed Operation Rising line, that's from
26:12
Speaker 5: the Bible. This twelve day war will go down in
26:17
Speaker 5: the annals of military history. Are daring pilots neutralized Iran's
26:22
Speaker 5: missile defenses and took control of the skies over Tehran.
26:28
Speaker 5: And you saw this Israeli fighter pilots and American B
26:32
Speaker 5: two pilots bombed Iran's nuclear enrichment sites. I want to
26:36
Speaker 5: thank President Trump for his bold and decisive action. President
26:47
Speaker 5: Trump and I. President Trump and I promised to prevent
26:51
Speaker 5: Iran from developing nuclear weapons, and we delivered on that promise.
27:02
Speaker 5: We removed an existential threat to Iran, to Israel, rather
27:06
Speaker 5: an a mortal threat to the civilized world. We lifted
27:09
Speaker 5: a dark cloud that could have claimed millions and millions
27:13
Speaker 5: of lives. But ladies and gentlemen, we must remain vigilant.
27:20
Speaker 5: We must remain absolutely clear minded and vigilant. We must
27:25
Speaker 5: not allow Iran to rebuild its military nuclear capacities. Iran
27:30
Speaker 5: stockpiles of enriched uranium. These stockpiles must be eliminated, and
27:37
Speaker 5: tomorrow you and Security Council's sanctions on Iran must be
27:42
Speaker 5: snapped back. Thanks to the resolve of our people, the
27:52
Speaker 5: courage of our soldiers, and the bold decisions we took,
27:56
Speaker 5: Israel rebounded from its darkest day to deliver one of
28:00
Speaker 5: the most stunning military comebacks in history.
28:08
Speaker 3: But we're not done yet.
28:12
Speaker 5: The final elements, the final remnants of Ramas are holed
28:16
Speaker 5: up in Gaza City. They vow to repeat the atrocities
28:21
Speaker 5: of October seventh again and again and again, no matter
28:26
Speaker 5: how diminish their forces. That is why Israel must finish
28:31
Speaker 5: the job. That is why we want to do so
28:34
Speaker 5: as fast as possible. Ladies and gentlemen, Much of the
28:45
Speaker 5: world no longer remembers October seventh, but we remember. Israel
28:53
Speaker 5: remembers October seventh. On that day, well, I'll tell you
29:00
Speaker 5: can remember October seventh.
29:01
Speaker 3: Two.
29:02
Speaker 5: You see, there's a large pin here. It's a QR code.
29:07
Speaker 5: What I asked you to do is hold up your phones,
29:11
Speaker 5: zoom in, and you too will see why we fight
29:16
Speaker 5: and why we must win.
29:21
Speaker 3: It's all in here.
29:25
Speaker 5: On October seventh, Tamas carried out the worst attack on
29:29
Speaker 5: Jews since the Holocaust. They slaughtered twelve hundred innocent people,
29:35
Speaker 5: including over forty Americans and foreign nationals from dozens of
29:40
Speaker 5: countries represented here. They beheaded men, They raped women, They
29:47
Speaker 5: burnt babies alive. They burnt babies alive in front of
29:50
Speaker 5: their parents. What monsters. And these monsters took them more
29:58
Speaker 5: than two hundred and fifty people hostage, and those included
30:03
Speaker 5: Holocaust survivors, grandmothers, grandmothers and their grandchildren. Who takes hostage
30:11
Speaker 5: grandmothers and grandchildren ramasdos. So far, we've brought home two
30:18
Speaker 5: hundred and seven of these hostages, but forty eight still
30:22
Speaker 5: remain in the dungeons of Gaza. Twenty of them are alive, starved, tortured,
30:32
Speaker 5: deprived of any daylight, deprived of humanity. These are the
30:39
Speaker 5: names of the twenty living hostages. Mattan angrist Galli and
30:44
Speaker 5: zer Bermann, brothers elk rom Braslavsky Nimot Cohen Ariel and
30:53
Speaker 5: David Kuno and another pair of brothers Geigilbada lal have Tar David.
31:02
Speaker 5: You saw, you saw the picture of the Viata, David emaciated,
31:08
Speaker 5: forced to dig his own grave. Maxim Hurricane Eton Holne
31:15
Speaker 5: Segreekfon balb cooperstein On Remehran eton More, Josef Rahim, o'hanna
31:24
Speaker 5: alone ohill avinatam Oh and Matan Sangalke. Now, ladies and gentlemen,
31:33
Speaker 5: I want to do something I've never done before. I
31:38
Speaker 5: want to speak from this form directly to those hostages
31:43
Speaker 5: through loudspeakers. I've surrounded Gaza with massive loudspeakers connected to
31:48
Speaker 5: this microphone. In the hope that our dear hostages will
31:52
Speaker 5: hear my message. And I'll say it first in Hebrew
31:56
Speaker 5: and then in English. A renu a gibuim medabala am
32:06
Speaker 5: al bi mata um los afila haam kulorem vanahu nape
32:17
Speaker 5: ad sazi at kulhem abaita hakaim vahalim h our brave heroes.
32:33
Speaker 5: This is Prime Minister Natanyao speaking to you live from
32:37
Speaker 5: the United Nations. We have not forgotten you, not even
32:41
Speaker 5: for a second. The people of Israel are with you.
32:45
Speaker 5: We will not falter, and we will not rest until
32:48
Speaker 5: we bring all of you home, ladies and gentlemen. Thanks
33:03
Speaker 5: to special efforts by Israelian intelligence, my words are now
33:07
Speaker 5: also being carried. They're streamed live to the cell phones
33:11
Speaker 5: of Gazins. So to the remaining Ramas leaders and to
33:16
Speaker 5: the jailers of our hostages. I now say, lay down
33:21
Speaker 5: your arms. Let my people go. Free the hostages, all
33:27
Speaker 5: of them, the whole forty eight. Free the hostages.
33:30
Speaker 3: Now. If you do, you will live.
33:42
Speaker 5: If you don't, Israel will hunt you down, ladies and gentlemen.
33:51
Speaker 5: If Ramas agrees to our demands, the war could end
33:55
Speaker 5: right now. Gaza would be demilitarized, would retain overriding security control,
34:03
Speaker 5: and a peaceful civilian authority would be established by Ghazans
34:07
Speaker 5: and others committed to peace with Israel. And of course
34:12
Speaker 5: you understand that the war in Gaza has affected every Israeli.
34:17
Speaker 5: But I'm sure there are people in New York, or
34:19
Speaker 5: in London, or in Melbourne and elsewhere who are probably
34:24
Speaker 5: thinking what does all of this have to do with me?
34:30
Speaker 5: And the answer is everything, because our enemies are your enemies.
34:38
Speaker 5: So let's do something else. So first, at the UN
34:42
Speaker 5: let's do a pop quiz and raise your hand if
34:45
Speaker 5: you know the answer. Here's the first question, who shouts
34:50
Speaker 5: death to America? Is that A Iran, B Ramas, C Krisbala,
34:58
Speaker 5: d the Hooties or E. All of the above. All
35:03
Speaker 5: of the above correct, all of the above. Second question,
35:12
Speaker 5: who has murdered Americans and Europeans in cold blood? Is
35:16
Speaker 5: it A Al Qaeda, B Kamas, Si, Hizbala, d Iran
35:23
Speaker 5: or E. All of the above correct again. So here's
35:33
Speaker 5: the point. I wanted to make our enemies hate all
35:37
Speaker 5: of us with equal venom. They want to drag the
35:42
Speaker 5: modern world back to the past, to a dark age
35:44
Speaker 5: of violence, fanaticism, and terror. I think many of you
35:50
Speaker 5: are already feeling in your own societies the radical islam
35:53
Speaker 5: Is surge. You know, I'm sure you do. You know
35:58
Speaker 5: deep down that Israel, Israel is fighting your fight. So
36:03
Speaker 5: I want to tell you a secret. Behind closed doors.
36:08
Speaker 5: Many of the leaders who publicly condemn us privately thank us.
36:14
Speaker 5: They tell me how much they value Israel's superb intelligence
36:18
Speaker 5: services that have prevented time and again terrorist attacks in
36:22
Speaker 5: their capitals, time and again, saving countless lives. General George Keegan,
36:30
Speaker 5: former head of US Air Force Intelligence, once said, if
36:34
Speaker 5: the United States had to gather on its own the
36:37
Speaker 5: intelligence that Israel gives us, we would have to establish
36:41
Speaker 5: five cias five cias. This past June, when Israel struck
36:48
Speaker 5: Iran's nuclear facilities, German Chancellor Mertz admitted the truth. He said,
36:56
Speaker 5: Israel is doing the dirty work for all of us.
37:02
Speaker 5: President Trump understands better than any other leader that Israel
37:06
Speaker 5: in America faith a common threat. He showed the world
37:13
Speaker 5: that when Iran and its proxies murder Americans, take Americans hostage,
37:18
Speaker 5: South death to America, murd American flags, and try to
37:22
Speaker 5: assassinate the President of the United States try to assassinate
37:25
Speaker 5: the President of the United States, not once, but twice.
37:30
Speaker 5: He showed them there is a price to pay for
37:33
Speaker 5: all that. But regrettably, many leaders who are represented in
37:48
Speaker 5: this hall, they send a very different message. Sure, in
37:54
Speaker 5: the days immediately following October seventh, many of them supported Israel.
38:00
Speaker 5: That support quickly evaporated when Israel did what any self
38:04
Speaker 5: respecting nation would do in the wake of such a
38:07
Speaker 5: savage attack.
38:09
Speaker 3: We fought back.
38:12
Speaker 5: Now, just imagine, just sit back for a second and
38:15
Speaker 5: imagine an attack against America proportioned to the attack against
38:21
Speaker 5: Israel on October seventh. Imagine a regime, a terror regime,
38:27
Speaker 5: dispatching thousands of terrorists to invade the United States. They
38:32
Speaker 5: massacre forty thousand Americans, they take ten thousand Americans hostage.
38:40
Speaker 5: What do you think America would do? You think America
38:44
Speaker 5: would leave that regime standing. You don't take that, No way,
38:49
Speaker 5: not a chance. The United States would wipe out that
38:53
Speaker 5: terror regime and ensure that such savagery would never threaten
38:57
Speaker 5: America again. This is precisely what Israel is doing in Gaza.
39:02
Speaker 5: We're wiping out the terror regime of Ramas and ensuring
39:06
Speaker 5: that this savagery will never threaten Israel again. That's what
39:10
Speaker 5: we are doing. That's what any self respecting government would do. Yet,
39:23
Speaker 5: and it's so yet that I'm I'm sorry to say here. Yet,
39:29
Speaker 5: over time, many world leaders buckled. They buckled under the
39:35
Speaker 5: pressure of a bias media, radical Islamists, constituencies, and antisemitic mobs.
39:43
Speaker 5: There's a familiar saying, when the going gets tough, the
39:50
Speaker 5: tough get going. Well for many countries. Here, when the
39:55
Speaker 5: going got tough, you caved. And here's the shameful result
40:02
Speaker 5: of that collapse. From much of the past two years,
40:07
Speaker 5: Israel has had to fight a seven front war against barbarism,
40:12
Speaker 5: with many of your nations opposing us. Astoundedly. As we
40:20
Speaker 5: fight the terrorists who murdered many of your citizens, you
40:24
Speaker 5: are fighting us. You condemn us, you embargo us, and
40:29
Speaker 5: you age political and legal warfare. It's called lawfare against us.
40:34
Speaker 5: I say to the representatives of those nations, this is
40:38
Speaker 5: not an indictment of Israel. It's an indictment of you.
40:43
Speaker 5: It's an indictment of weak need leaders who appease evil
40:47
Speaker 5: rather than support a nation whose brave soldiers guard you
40:50
Speaker 5: from the barbarians at the gate. They're already penetrating your gates.
40:55
Speaker 5: When will you learn you can't appease your way out
40:58
Speaker 5: of jihad and you won't escape the islam as stormed
41:02
Speaker 5: by sacrificing Israel. To overcome that storm, you have to
41:06
Speaker 5: stand with Israel. But that's not what you're doing, as
41:12
Speaker 5: the profits of the Israel foretold in the Bible. You've
41:16
Speaker 5: turned good into evil and evil into good.
41:22
Speaker 4: Now.
41:22
Speaker 5: I want to drill down on this. Take the false
41:26
Speaker 5: charge of genocide. Israel is accused of deliberately targeting civilians, ladies,
41:33
Speaker 5: and gentlemen. The opposite is true. The head of the
41:37
Speaker 5: head of Urban Warfare Studies, Colonel John Spencer, he's perhaps
41:42
Speaker 5: the world's greatest expert on urban warfare, and he says
41:46
Speaker 5: Israel is applying more measures to minimize civilian casualties than
41:50
Speaker 5: any military in history. And because we're doing that, the
41:55
Speaker 5: ratio of non combatant to combatant casualties is less than
41:59
Speaker 5: two to one in Gaza. That's an astoundingly low ratio,
42:05
Speaker 5: lower than NATO's wars in Afghanistan in Iraq, especially when
42:09
Speaker 5: you consider that Gaza is one of the most densely
42:11
Speaker 5: populated urban areas on Earth. It has hundreds of miles
42:16
Speaker 5: of terrort tunnels underground, and it has countless terror towers
42:21
Speaker 5: above ground, and thousands of terrasts embedded in the tunnels
42:26
Speaker 5: and in these towers in civilian areas. If you want
42:29
Speaker 5: to see what measures Israel takes to avoid civilian casualties
42:33
Speaker 5: in this war, just look at what we're doing now
42:36
Speaker 5: in Gaza City, the last Ramas stronghold, one of the
42:39
Speaker 5: two last strongholds. For three weeks, Israel dropped millions of
42:44
Speaker 5: leaf flets, sent millions of text messages, and made countless
42:48
Speaker 5: phone calls urging civilians to leave Gaza City before our
42:52
Speaker 5: military moves in. At the same time, Ramas implants itself
42:57
Speaker 5: in moss schools, hospitals, apartment buildings and tries to force
43:02
Speaker 5: those civilians not to leave, to stay in harms way,
43:07
Speaker 5: and it often threatens them at gunpoint if they try
43:09
Speaker 5: to do so. For Israel, every civilian casualty is a
43:14
Speaker 5: tragedy for Hamas. It's a strategy. Hamas uses civilians as
43:20
Speaker 5: human shields and as props in its sick propaganda war
43:24
Speaker 5: in Israel against Israel, a propaganda war that the Western
43:28
Speaker 5: media buys hook line and sinker. Now, despite Hamas's threats,
43:34
Speaker 5: close to seven hundred thousand gasins, almost three quarters of
43:38
Speaker 5: a million have already heated our calls and moved to
43:42
Speaker 5: safe zones. Now, I want to ask you a simple question,
43:47
Speaker 5: a simple logical question. Would a country committing genocide plead
43:53
Speaker 5: with the civilian population it is supposedly targeting to get
43:57
Speaker 5: out of harms?
43:57
Speaker 3: Way would we.
43:59
Speaker 5: Tell get out if we want to commit genocide. We're
44:03
Speaker 5: trying to get them out and Ramas is trying to
44:05
Speaker 5: keep them in. And this charge is so baseless, the
44:10
Speaker 5: comparison to genocide wholesale slaughter of populations. What did the
44:16
Speaker 5: Nazis ask the Jews to leave? Kindly leave, go out?
44:19
Speaker 5: Did others you want me to name all the genocidal
44:24
Speaker 5: leaders of history, just go one by one? Did anyone
44:27
Speaker 5: do this? Did they say get out so we can
44:30
Speaker 5: come in?
44:30
Speaker 3: Of course not.
44:32
Speaker 5: So the truth has been turned on its head. Ramas
44:36
Speaker 5: a genocidal terrorist organization whose charter calls for the murder
44:41
Speaker 5: of all Jews.
44:41
Speaker 3: On the planet.
44:43
Speaker 5: This genocidal organization is given a pass sparely mentioned, while Israel,
44:50
Speaker 5: which does everything it can to get civilians out of
44:53
Speaker 5: harm's way. Israel is put in the dock. What a joke.
45:00
Speaker 3: You want to hear?
45:00
Speaker 5: Another one, Israel is accused of deliberately starving the people
45:06
Speaker 5: of Gaza, when Israel is deliberately feeding the people of Gaza.
45:11
Speaker 5: Since the beginning of the war, Israel is led into
45:14
Speaker 5: Gaza more than two million tons of food and aid.
45:19
Speaker 5: That's one ton of aid for every man, woman and
45:23
Speaker 5: child in Gaza, nearly three thousand calories per person per day.
45:30
Speaker 3: Some starvation policy.
45:32
Speaker 5: If there are Gazans who don't have enough food, it's
45:35
Speaker 5: because Hamas is stealing it. Hamas steals it, hoards it,
45:40
Speaker 5: and sells it at exorbitant prices to fight its war machine.
45:45
Speaker 5: Last month, even the UN, not exactly a supporter of Israel.
45:51
Speaker 5: You're supposed to laugh, by the way, last month, even
45:56
Speaker 5: the UN admitted that Hamas and other are groups looted
46:01
Speaker 5: eighty five percent of the trucks. That's why you have deprivation.
46:08
Speaker 5: Those who peddled the blood libels of genocide and starvation
46:11
Speaker 5: against Israel are no better than those who peddled blood
46:15
Speaker 5: libels against the Jews in the Middle Ages Ages when
46:18
Speaker 5: they falsely affused US of poisoning wells, spreading plague, and
46:23
Speaker 5: using the blood of children to bake passover Mansas. Anti
46:29
Speaker 5: Semitism dies hard. In fact, it doesn't die at all.
46:35
Speaker 5: It just keeps coming back with its libelous lies, refurbished, regurgitated,
46:44
Speaker 5: over and over again. And I want to tell you
46:49
Speaker 5: something else. These anti Semitic lies, they have consequences. In
46:56
Speaker 5: recent months, Jews have been assaulted in Canada, Austria, or
47:02
Speaker 5: rather Australia, Britain, France, the Netherlands, and elsewhere here in America.
47:10
Speaker 5: An elderly Holocaust survivor was burnt to death in Colorado,
47:16
Speaker 5: and a beautiful young couple from the Israeli Embassy in
47:19
Speaker 5: Washington was brutally gunned down right in front of the
47:24
Speaker 5: Holocaust Museum there. Thankfully, President Trump's administration is forcefully fighting
47:32
Speaker 5: the scourge of antisemitism, and every government here should follow
47:36
Speaker 5: its lead, but instead many do the opposite. They actually
47:44
Speaker 5: reward reward the worst anti Semites on earth. This week,
47:51
Speaker 5: the leaders of France, Britain, Australia, Canada and other countries
47:57
Speaker 5: unconditionally recognized a Palestinian state. They did so after the
48:04
Speaker 5: horrors committed by Hamas on October seventh, horrors praised on
48:09
Speaker 5: that day by nearly ninety percent of the Palestinian population.
48:15
Speaker 5: Let me say that again, nearly ninety percent of Palestinians
48:20
Speaker 5: supported the attack on October seventh. It's not supported only
48:25
Speaker 5: they celebrated. They danced on the rooftops, they threw candies.
48:33
Speaker 5: That's woes both in Gaza and in Judea Samaria, the
48:37
Speaker 5: West Bank as you call it. And it's just the
48:41
Speaker 5: way they celebrated another horror, nine to eleven. They danced
48:47
Speaker 5: on the rooftops, they cheered, they threw candy. You know
48:54
Speaker 5: what message the leaders who recognized the Palestinian state this
48:58
Speaker 5: week sent to the Palestinians. It's a very clear message
49:04
Speaker 5: murdering Jews pays off. Well, I have a message for
49:10
Speaker 5: these leaders. When the most savage terrorists on earth are
49:15
Speaker 5: effusively praising your decision, you didn't do something right. You
49:20
Speaker 5: did something wrong, horribly wrong. Your disgraceful decision will encourage
49:27
Speaker 5: terrorism against Jews and against innocent people everywhere. It will
49:32
Speaker 5: be a mark of shame on all of you. But
49:37
Speaker 5: wait a minute, mister Prime minister. They tell me, wait
49:40
Speaker 5: a minute. We believe in a two state solution where
49:43
Speaker 5: the Jewish State of Israel will live side by side
49:47
Speaker 5: in peace with the Palestinian state. There's only one problem
49:51
Speaker 5: with that. The Palestinians. They don't believe in this solution.
49:56
Speaker 5: They never have. They don't want a state next to Israel.
50:00
Speaker 5: They wanted a Palestinian state instead of Israel. And that's
50:05
Speaker 5: why every time they were offered a Palestinian state but
50:09
Speaker 5: were required to end the conflict with Israel and recognize
50:12
Speaker 5: the Jewish state, every time over the decades, they turned
50:18
Speaker 5: it down. And that is why every time they were
50:21
Speaker 5: given territory they used it to attack us. In fact,
50:27
Speaker 5: they effectively had a Palestinian state in Gaza. So what
50:32
Speaker 5: did they do with that state peace co existence. No,
50:38
Speaker 5: they attacked us time and time again, totally unprovoked. They
50:42
Speaker 5: fired rockets into our cities, They murdered our children. They
50:46
Speaker 5: turned Gaza into a terror base from which they committed
50:49
Speaker 5: the October seventh massacre. So here's the uncomfortable truth. The
50:56
Speaker 5: persistent Palestinian rejection of a Jewish state in any boundary
51:01
Speaker 5: is what has driven this conflict for over a century.
51:04
Speaker 5: It is still driving it. It's not the absence of
51:08
Speaker 5: a Palestinian state. It's the presence and existence of a
51:12
Speaker 5: Jewish state. And I find it amazing, amazing that the
51:18
Speaker 5: foreign chancelleries in the ministries and all those who pontificate
51:22
Speaker 5: about this, and the leaders, how can they not see
51:26
Speaker 5: this basic truth when it is repeated again and again
51:29
Speaker 5: and again ad nauseam. And I want to say something else.
51:34
Speaker 5: This rejection of a Jewish state not only applies to Hamas,
51:39
Speaker 5: it also applies to the so called moderate Palestinian authority.
51:44
Speaker 5: You should know that the Palaestinian authorities pays terrorists to
51:50
Speaker 5: slay Jews. The more Jews the terrorists slay, the more
51:54
Speaker 5: the Palaestinian authority pays. The Palestinian authority names its government buildings,
52:00
Speaker 5: it's public squares, it's schools after the mass murderers of Jews,
52:06
Speaker 5: which they glorify as martyrs. They pay and glorify not
52:11
Speaker 5: just the killer of Jews, but also killers of Christians,
52:15
Speaker 5: Christians like Taylor Force, an American veteran who was brutally
52:19
Speaker 5: murdered in Israel by Palestinian terrorists. But but but again,
52:25
Speaker 5: but that I hear from the Western leaders. They tell
52:29
Speaker 5: me the PA promised us it will reform, and I
52:35
Speaker 5: know this time, Prime Minister, it will be different. Yeah right,
52:41
Speaker 5: We've heard these promises for decades. They always promise, they
52:47
Speaker 5: never deliver because you see, the Palestinian authority is corrupt
52:53
Speaker 5: to the core. They haven't held elections in twenty years.
52:57
Speaker 5: They use the same textbooks as Kramas, exactly the same textbooks.
53:02
Speaker 5: They teach their children to hate Jews and destroy the
53:05
Speaker 5: Jewish state. And Christians don't fare much better. When Bethlehem Bethlen,
53:12
Speaker 5: the birthplace of Jesus, was under Israeli control, eighty percent
53:16
Speaker 5: of its residents were Christians, but since the PA took control,
53:22
Speaker 5: that number has dwindled to under twenty percent. These are
53:27
Speaker 5: the people you want to give a state to. What
53:30
Speaker 5: you're doing is giving the ultimate reward to intolerant fanatics
53:35
Speaker 5: who perpetrated and supported the October seventh massacre. Giving the
53:40
Speaker 5: Palestinians a state one mile from Jerusalem after October seventh
53:45
Speaker 5: is like giving al Qaida state one mile from New
53:48
Speaker 5: York City after September eleventh. This is sheer madness, it's insane,
53:54
Speaker 5: and we won't do it. So here's another message to
54:09
Speaker 5: those Western leaders. Israel will not allow you to shove
54:13
Speaker 5: a terra state down our throats. We will not commit
54:17
Speaker 5: national suicide because you don't have the guts to face
54:21
Speaker 5: down a hostile media and anti Semitic mobs demanding Israel's blood.
54:27
Speaker 5: And I want you to grasp something else, which is
54:33
Speaker 5: also distorted in the media. I say this not only
54:38
Speaker 5: in by name or the name of my government, but
54:42
Speaker 5: on behalf of all the people of Israel. Last year,
54:47
Speaker 5: there was a vote in the Kinness at our parliament
54:50
Speaker 5: whether or not to oppose the imposition of a Palestinian state.
54:54
Speaker 5: You want to guess what the results were. Out of
54:57
Speaker 5: one hundred and twenty members of our parliament, ninety nine
55:01
Speaker 5: voted against and only nine supported. That's over ninety percent.
55:08
Speaker 5: It's not a fringe group. It's not the Prime Minister
55:13
Speaker 5: who himself is extreme or he's held hostage by extreme
55:19
Speaker 5: parties to his right. It's over ninety percent of israelis
55:25
Speaker 5: My opposition to a Palestinian state is not simply my
55:29
Speaker 5: policies or my government's policy. It's the policy of the
55:33
Speaker 5: state and people of the State of Israel. Western leaders
55:48
Speaker 5: may have buckled under the pressure, and I guarantee you
55:52
Speaker 5: one thing, Israel won't. Israel's victories over the Iranian thank you,
55:59
Speaker 5: I know you.
56:00
Speaker 3: That's good.
56:01
Speaker 5: Israel's victories over the Iranian terror axis have opened up
56:06
Speaker 5: possibilities for peace that were unthinkable two years ago.
56:11
Speaker 3: Take Syria.
56:13
Speaker 5: For decades, the very idea of peace between Israel and
56:16
Speaker 5: Syria seemed unimaginable.
56:19
Speaker 3: Well no more.
56:21
Speaker 5: Today we have begun serious negotiations with the new Syrian government.
56:28
Speaker 5: I believe in agreement can be reached that respects Seria's
56:31
Speaker 5: sovereignty and protects both Israeli security and the security of
56:36
Speaker 5: the minorities in the region, including the Jews minority. From
56:41
Speaker 5: the founding of Israel, Jews and Jews have been brothers
56:46
Speaker 5: in arms. We have fought together, We've bled together, we
56:52
Speaker 5: built our lives together. When I was a young commander
56:56
Speaker 5: in Israel's Special Forces, my own life was saved by
57:02
Speaker 5: the invaluable advice given to me by a great friend,
57:06
Speaker 5: Salim Shufi, our herogue drubs idf veteran. And that's why
57:11
Speaker 5: I couldn't sit idly by, nor could Israel sit idly
57:15
Speaker 5: by while the Jews were being slaughtered by jiodists, and
57:20
Speaker 5: I instructed our forces to stop the massacre, which.
57:24
Speaker 3: They promptly did.
57:26
Speaker 5: Peace between Israel and Lebanon is possible as well. I
57:32
Speaker 5: call on the Lebanese government to also begin direct negotiations
57:36
Speaker 5: with Israel. I commended for its declared aim to disarm Risbalah,
57:43
Speaker 5: but we need more than words. If Lebanon takes genuine
57:48
Speaker 5: and sustained action to Disarmchrisbalah, I'm sure we can achieve
57:54
Speaker 5: a sustainable peace. Of course, until that happens, we will
57:59
Speaker 5: take whatever action we need to defend ourselves and to
58:03
Speaker 5: maintain the conditions of the ceasefire which was established in Lebanon.
58:10
Speaker 5: Our goal is not merely to monitor Risbala's actions, but
58:16
Speaker 5: to prevent them from violating the ceasefire and attacking us
58:20
Speaker 5: at any time. But I'm sure that if the Lebanese
58:24
Speaker 5: government persists in its goal of disarming Krisbala, peace will
58:30
Speaker 5: come very spabely and very readily. Victory over Ribala has
58:35
Speaker 5: made peace possible with our two neighbors, our two Arab
58:39
Speaker 5: neighbors in the north. Victory over Ramas will make peace
58:43
Speaker 5: possible with nations throughout the Arab and Muslim world. Our
58:48
Speaker 5: victory would lead to a dramatic extension and expansion of
58:53
Speaker 5: these stark Abraham Accords, which President Trump broken between Arab
58:57
Speaker 5: leaders and myself five years ago. And I took note,
59:02
Speaker 5: as I'm sure you did too, of the encouraging words
59:05
Speaker 5: spoken here by the President of Indonesia. This is the
59:10
Speaker 5: country with the largest Muslim population of all nations, and
59:15
Speaker 5: it's also a sign of what could come forward. Looking
59:20
Speaker 5: Arabs and Muslim leaders know that cooperating with Israel will
59:24
Speaker 5: provide them with groundbreaking Israeli technologies, including in medicine and science,
59:30
Speaker 5: in agriculture and water, in defense and ai and so
59:33
Speaker 5: many other fields. I believe that in the coming years,
59:38
Speaker 5: the Middle East will look dramatically different. Many of those
59:44
Speaker 5: who wage war on Israel today will be gone Tomorrow.
59:49
Speaker 5: Brave peacemakers will take their place, and nowhere, nowhere will
59:54
Speaker 5: this be more true than an Iran. The long suffering
59:59
Speaker 5: Iranian people will regain their freedom. They will make Iran
1:00:04
Speaker 5: great again, and our two ancient peoples, our two ancient peoples,
1:00:12
Speaker 5: the people of Israel and the people of Iran, will
1:00:15
Speaker 5: restore a friendship that will benefit the entire world. Ladies
1:00:22
Speaker 5: and gentlemen, the horrors that happened on one dark day,
1:00:28
Speaker 5: October seventh. Those horrors happened countless times during the centuries
1:00:35
Speaker 5: of my people's exiles among the nations. Jewish blood was cheap,
1:00:41
Speaker 5: Jews were killed with impunity. We had to beg others
1:00:46
Speaker 5: to defend us. The rise of Israel did not mean
1:00:51
Speaker 5: that the attempts to destroy us would end. It meant
1:00:54
Speaker 5: that we could fight back against those attempts, and that
1:00:57
Speaker 5: is exactly what Israel has done since October seventh. Our
1:01:02
Speaker 5: sons and daughters fought like lions. Our brave soldiers donned
1:01:07
Speaker 5: their uniforms and rushed into battle. They were armed with
1:01:11
Speaker 5: the dreams of the hundred generations of Jews who came
1:01:15
Speaker 5: before them, the dream of living as a free people
1:01:18
Speaker 5: in the land of Israel, our beloved homeland for more
1:01:21
Speaker 5: than three thousand years, the dreams of living in our
1:01:25
Speaker 5: own independent state, the dream of having an army to
1:01:29
Speaker 5: defend ourselves, and the dream of being allied onto the nations,
1:01:33
Speaker 5: a beacon of progress, ingenuity, innovation for the benefit of
1:01:38
Speaker 5: all humanity. On October seventh, the enemies of Israel tried
1:01:43
Speaker 5: to extinguish that light. Two years later, the resolve of
1:01:48
Speaker 5: Israel and the strength of Israel burned brighter than ever.
1:01:52
Speaker 5: With God's help, that strength and that resolve would lead
1:01:57
Speaker 5: us to a speedy victory and to a brilliant future
1:02:00
Speaker 5: of prosperity and peace. Thank you very much.
1:02:18
Speaker 4: On behalf of the Assembly, I wish to thank the
1:02:22
Speaker 4: Prime Minister of the State of Israel m.
1:03:04
Speaker 2: Hey
