00:00Israel was quick to respond after Emmanuel Macron spoke at the UN on Tuesday.
00:05The Israeli government's reaction was unusually harsh.
00:08Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's office denounced the remarks as grotesque nonsense
00:11to dismiss criticism regarding the West Bank and France's position on Hamas.
00:16Speaking at the United Nations, Emmanuel Macron condemned not only the humanitarian situation
00:20in Gaza, but also Israeli actions in the West Bank.
00:23The French president notably asserted that Hamas had never been active there, even though
00:27the Palestinian Authority exercises some of its functions in the region.
00:30But what is our credibility if we continue to stay inactive face to Gaza?
00:36Do we have to contemplate this spectacle that makes us happy to all?
00:41Never!
00:44Look at what's happening in Cisjordania, where every day violations are made in the name of what?
00:54The Hamas has never been saved in Cisjordania.
00:58Netanyahu's office claimed that Hamas regularly attacked Jews in the West Bank and accused
01:02Emmanuel Macron of denying this reality.
01:05To support its response, Netanyahu's office cited the death on Sunday of a French-Israeli
01:10man, a father of six, who was shot and killed in the center of the West Bank.
01:16Finally, the U.S. Ambassador to Israel, Mike Huckabee, also described the French president's
01:20speech as out of touch with reality.
