Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu gave a speech stunning in its moral clarity on just what Israel is fighting for: Its life and the values of the West.
It’s unthinkably rare to hear a speech of piercing moral clarity at the United Nations, but Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu delivered one Friday.
As his nation continues its just and humane counterattack against Hamas and has launched a new phase of pushback against the terror threat menacing from the north, Netanyahu’s thunderous remarks reveal that he is no spent force.
As if the brilliant successes of Israel’s surgical attacks against Hezbollah’s communications, men and armaments weren’t indication enough of that, including a bullseye on the terror cadre’s Beirut HQ delivered barely an hour after Bibi finished speaking — coupled with its utter decimation of Hamas forces and infrastructure in Gaza.
He rightly framed the fight as not merely an existential battle for Israel, but one for the West and its allies as a whole.
“Our enemies seek not only to destroy us but to destroy our common civilization and return all of us to a dark age of tyranny and terror,” he declared.
