00:01Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu delivered a defiant speech at the United Nations General Assembly in New York on Thursday,
00:09as planned protests broke out in the city against him.
00:12As he made his way to the podium, dozens of delegates from around the world exited the venue as the
00:18speaker called for order.
00:20If there are any other moral cowards who haven't yet left this hall, please do so now.
00:26Netanyahu used the platform to take aim at critics of Israel's war in Gaza, as well as media outlets and
00:33international partners.
00:34Yet they accused Israel, tiny Israel, of colonialism, some colonialism.
00:42And who's accusing us?
00:44Well, among them are people in Britain and in France.
00:49For God's sakes, they vetted the term.
00:52Hundreds of people held a sit-in outside the United Nations headquarters to protest Netanyahu's invitation to attend the General
00:59Assembly.
01:00He stands accused of war crimes and crimes against humanity by the International Criminal Court,
01:05as multiple human rights organizations have labeled Israeli conduct against Palestinians in Gaza a genocide.
01:11What genocidal regime gives a million polo vaccinations to the enemy's population?
01:20What genocidal regime enables the distribution of two million tons of food into Gaza?
01:27That's a ton for every person.
01:31Accusing Israel of genocide is the greatest lie of the century.
01:37Netanyahu's brief visit demonstrated how isolated he is globally,
01:41as he faces re-election next month in polls widely seen as a referendum on his responsibility for the security
01:47failures
01:47surrounding the 7 October Hamas attacks and his ability to defend Israel's reputation on the world stage.
