00:01Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu delivered a defiant speech at the United
00:06Nations General Assembly in New York on Thursday as planned protests broke out in the city against
00:12him. As he made his way to the podium, dozens of delegates from around the world exited the
00:17venue as the speaker called for order. If there are any other moral cowards who haven't yet left
00:24this hall, please do so now. Netanyahu used the platform to take aim at critics of Israel's war
00:30in Gaza, as well as media outlets and international partners. Yet they accused Israel, tiny Israel,
00:38of colonialism, some colonialism. And who's accusing us? Well, among them are people in Britain
00:48and in France. For God's sakes, they vetted the term. Hundreds of people held a sit-in outside
00:54the United Nations headquarters to protest Netanyahu's invitation to attend the General
00:59Assembly. He stands accused of war crimes and crimes against humanity by the International
01:04Criminal Court as multiple human rights organizations have labeled Israeli conduct against Palestinians in
01:10Gaza a genocide. What genocidal regime gives a million poll of vaccinations to the enemy's population?
01:20What genocidal regime enables the distribution of two million tons of food into Gaza? That's a ton
01:28for every person. Accusing Israel of genocide is the greatest lie of the century.
01:37Netanyahu's brief visit demonstrated how isolated he is globally, as he faces re-election next month
01:43in polls widely seen as a referendum on his responsibility for the security failures
01:47surrounding the 7 October Hamas attacks and his ability to defend Israel's reputation on the world stage.
