Benjamin Netanyahu gave a high-stakes speech to world leaders at the UN General ᴀssembly.

Netanyahu was given an icy welcome by UNGA delegates, with a mᴀss walkout before he even began speaking.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu tore into New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani during his Thursday address to the UN, accusing the socialist leader of having made the city unsafe for Jews and falsely accusing his nation of “genocide.”

Several celebrities, including actress Susan Sarandon and New York congressional candidate Darializa Avila Chevalier, were detained by the NYPD for blocking a roadway before speech began.

In his address Thursday, Netanyahu said that his country had supplied 2 million tons of food into the Gaza Strip during the IDF’s war with Hamas terrorists there.

“That’s a ton for every person. Accusing Israel of genocide is the greatest lie of the century,” Netanyahu erupted.

US ambᴀssador Jeff Bartos stood and applauded with other members of the American delegation seated in the chamber, along with those from the Israeli delegation.

“If there are any other moral cowards who haven’t yet left this hall, please do so now,” Netanyahu scolded during the walkouts.

Order was restored, and chants died down in the balcony.

The Iranian reps exited the chamber during the entirety of Prime Minister Netanyahu’s address.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu predicted that Iranian dissidents will overthrow the leaders of the Islamic Republic in “a matter of time.”

“It’s only a matter of time that, in Iran, something incredible will happen: The power of the people will overcome the people in power,” Netanyahu said during his Thursday speech to the UN General ᴀssembly.

“I want you to listen to my words carefully: one day, and it may not be far away, the Iranian people will be free. Their murderous regime will be toppled by its lies, by its corruption, by its cruelty,” he added.

“This evil regime will fall, and we will all celebrate that day.”

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu tore into New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani during his Thursday address to the UN, accusing the socialist leader of having made the city unsafe for Jews and falsely accusing his nation of “genocide.”

“Mr. Mamdani, since you were elected mayor of this city, many Jews no longer feel safe in New York. They talk to me,” Netanyahu said. “They tell me this isn’t the city we remember. It changed so quickly.”

The Israeli PM erupted, “Now it’s no wonder you praise criminals convicted of supporting Hamas — you count as friends people like Hasan Piker, who said … America deserved 9/11. Some friends you have.”

“Your wife liked to post praising the October 7th mᴀssacre. She liked another post saying Tel Aviv shouldn’t exist,” Netanyahu continued. “You refused to condemn any of that. You falsely, repeatedly accuse Israel of genocide.”

Netanyahu also noted the mayor’s threats to have him arrested if he showed up for his UN speech at the 2026 General ᴀssembly.

“Mr. Mamdani, you tried to stop me from coming here,” the prime minister said. “You tried to silence me. Well, you can’t silence me. You can’t silence the truth. And here is the simple truth … Israel didn’t commit genocide. Israel prevented genocide.”

“That’s exactly what Mr. Mamdani’s Hamas buddies would have done to us had we not stopped them,” he added. “They would have killed every last one of us.”

“The lies you and other anti-Semites spread about the Jews and the Jewish state have real consequences. In New York, Jews are threatened on the way to synagogue. Jews have been stabbed in the streets. Jews are demonized, targeted. They’re targeted simply for being Jews,” Netanyahu also said.

“That’s a ton for every person. Accusing Israel of genocide is the greatest lie of the century,” Netanyahu erupted.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called out Qatar and Turkey in his UN General ᴀssembly address Thursday for spreading “lies” about his country.

“Several foreign countries have spent untold billions to spread lies about my country. The first to do so was Qatar, decades ago,” Netanyahu said.

“It started mᴀssively funding American universities and toxic media outlets like Al Jazeera. They did the same in Europe, by the way, and their goal was clear brainwash young minds to hate Israel, hate America, hate the West,” he added.”This is the same Qatar that hosts the Hamas butchers of October 7th.”

Netanyahu also said: “Now the latest country to become a super spreader of anti-semitic lies is Turkey’s Erdogan. Erdogan is a tyrant. He also hosts the Hamas terror chiefs. He’s murdered thousands of Kurdish civilians. He denies the Armenian genocide. He jails journalists and opposition leaders.”

“In fact, I think he holds the world’s record on this, and that’s a tough call. But I think he’s number one. He illegally occupies Northern Cyprus, an EU member, and he regularly transgresses against Greece, a NATO member. Now he wants to take over Syria,” Netanyahu said.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu thanked US President Donald Trump for confronting Iran in a joint military action with the Jewish state earlier this year, saying the decision will “save civilization.

“We will continue to win because we have no other choice in this battle against the barbarians,” Netanyahu said in his address to the UN General ᴀssembly Thursday.

“We’ve had no greater partner than President Trump. I thank him. I thank him for his bold leadership. He boldly confronted an enormous danger to America, Israel and the world decades ago,” he added.

“He understood that if left unchallenged, the fanatic ayatollahs who chant Death to America, death to Israel would eventually carry out their mad fantasies,” Netanyahu also said. “So Israel and America acted together not only to protect ourselves, but to save civilization.”

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, in his UN speech, also recalled his military success in placing pagers on Hezbollah terrorists in Lebanon that exploded in a coordinated 2024 attack.

“We pummeled Hezbollah,” Netanyahu said. “You remember the beepers? Remember these things.”

The Israeli prime minister then held up a pager at the podium before the general ᴀssembly’s audience.

“Well, I can tell you this because Hezbollah certainly remembers them,” he added, noting later that their leaders have been left “ᴅᴇᴀᴅ” and the “vast arsenal of 150,000 ballistic missiles and rockets, all aimed at our civilians” are “gone.”

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu just took a swipe at Syrian President Ahmed al-Sharaa during his Thursday speech to the UN General ᴀssembly.

“On June 5th, 1967, Israel was surrounded by enemies who openly swore to destroy us. We weren’t then in Judea, Samaria, the heart of the historic homeland of the Jewish people. We weren’t in Gaza. We weren’t on the Golan Heights,” Netanyahu began.

“Oh, and, Mr. Sharaa, you should know that Jews have been on the Golan Heights since the days of Moses. You can read it in the Bible,” he added.

In his speech on Wednesday, Sharaa had claimed the heights as a part of Syria.

US President Donald Trump had recognized Israeli sovereignty over the region in 2019.

Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu said in his speech at the UN General ᴀssembly Thursday that many countries have “thanked us privately for taking out Iran’s nukes” in the past year.

“Israel is also also defending many of the countries whose delegates just left this hall,” Netanyahu continued.

“In fact, I want you to know that many of their leaders even thanked us privately for taking out Iran’s nukes. It’s hard to imagine more mind blowing hypocrisy, but that’s exactly what it is,” he said.
