Netanyahu is not going to the UN to be liked – but to tear off the masks

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu arrives at the UN General Assembly not to be liked, but to expose global hypocrisy. A year after weakening Iran, countries enjoyed the results but refrained from standing by Israel. Netanyahu intends to confront the world with the contradiction between talk of peace and the treatment of those fighting terrorism, and to remind them of the October 7 massacre and the hostages the world ignores.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu arrives today (Thursday) at the UN General Assembly not to be liked, but to tear off masks. For a whole year, the world quietly enjoyed the fruits of the Israeli-American attack on Iran. The moderate Arab countries breathed a sigh of relief, Western countries got their oil without the Houthi threat and without nuclear blackmail. But when it was time to stand up and say out loud who the real enemy is, only faint beeps were heard. Iran was struck, humiliated, and exposed in its nakedness, but leaders prefer to close their eyes. Leader after leader goes up to the podium, talks about humanitarianism, justice and peace, and deliberately chooses to ignore October 7 – not a word about the massacre, not about the hostages, not about the child murderers. Their choice is clear: they prefer terrorist organizations over a democratic state fighting for its existence. Netanyahu comes to say that Israel will not apologize for defending itself, and that it will not ask permission to fight those who slaughtered its children. This hypocrisy no longer works – the world has seen who is really fighting the axis of evil, and who is just talking.
