"Israel was using its missiles to protect its children. Hamas was using its children to protect its missiles," Israeli PM Netanyahu in response to claims that Israel committed war crimes in the 2014 50-day war with Gaza.
Netanyahu delivered a harsh address to the U.N. General Assembly's annual ministerial meeting yesterday.
THE US AND WORLD LEADERS:
He criticized the US and world leaders for supporting the eradication of ISIS while condemning Israel for engaging in war with Hamas. "They evidently don't understand that ISIS and Hamas are branches of the same poisonous tree -- when it comes to its ultimate goals, Hamas is ISIS, and ISIS is Hamas -- both bent on world domination through terror, just as the Nazis were".
PALESTINIAN LEADERSHIP:
He struck back at Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, who accused Israel last week of carrying out war crimes and waging a "war of genocide" during the fighting in Gaza. Netanyahu said Hamas committed "the real war crimes" in Gaza by using Palestinian civilians as human shields.
IRAN:
He argued that Iran is a terrorist state. Netanyahu said Iranian President Hassan Rouhani's condemnation of the spread of terrorism last week amounted to "one of history's greatest displays of doubletalk." He accused Iran itself of mounting terrorist attacks all around the world, and lumped the country in with Islamic extremist movements. "To say that Iran doesn't practice terrorism is like saying Derek Jeter never played shortstop for the New York Yankees".
THE UNITED NATIONS (AND ANYONE WHO CRITICIZES ISRAEL):
He labeled the United Nations Human Rights Council and anyone who criticizes Israel as Anti-Semitic. He called the Human Rights Council's name "an oxymoron" and charged that the body has become "a terrorist rights council."
Netanyahu said the council's treatment of Israel reflects "the return of one of the world's oldest prejudices." "It's called anti-Semitism. It is now spreading in polite society, where it masquerades as legitimate criticism of Israel," he said.
