NOW: Delegations are leaving the hall ahead of Netanyahu's speech at the UN.

Netanyahu's audience for his speech at the UN.

Netanyahu:

This map shows the curse of Iran’s terror axis. This axis threatened the peace of the entire world.

It threatened the stability of our region and the existence of my country, Israel.

Netanyahu:

Half of the Houthi leadership, gone.

Yahya Sinwar, gone.

Nasrallah, gone.

Assad regime, gone.

Iraq's militia, they will go.

Iran's top scientists, they are gone, too.

Netanyahu:

We removed an existential threat to Iran, to Israel rather.

Netanyahu:

We’re not done yet. The final remnants of Hamas are holed up in Gaza City.

They want to repeat the atrocities of October 7th again and again.

That is why Israel must finish the job as fast as possible.

Netanyahu:

Hamas burned babies alive.

Netanyahu to captives in Gaza:

I want to speak from this forum directly to those hostages through loudspeakers.

"Our Brave Heroes. This is Prime Minister Netanyahu speaking to you live from the United Nations. We have not forgotten you, not even for a second. The people of Israel are with you. We will not falter, and we will not rest until we bring all of you home."

Netanyahu:

To the remaining Hamas leaders, to the jailers of our hostages,

I say: Lay down your arms. Let my people go. Free the hostages, all of them, the whole 48. Free them now.

If you do, you will live. If you don’t, Israel will hunt you down.

Netanyahu does a "pop quiz" at the UN.

Netanyahu:

Leaders who publicly condemn us privately thank us.

They tell me how much they value Israel's superb intelligence services.

Netanyahu:

Chancellor Merz admitted the truth, he said:

"Israel is doing the dirty work for all of us."

Netanyahu:

Weak leaders in the world folded under pressure.

Netanyahu at the UN:

You have to stand with Israel, but that is not what you are doing.

Netanyahu:

Israel applies more measures to minimize civilian casualties than any military in history.

Netanyahu:

Israel is accused of deliberately starving the people of Gaza, when Israel is deliberately feeding the people of Gaza.

Netanyahu:

If there are Gazans who don't have enough food, it is because Hamas is stealing the food.

Netanyahu:

Last month, even the UN, not exactly a friend of Israel.

You are supposed to laugh by the way.

Netanyahu is speaking to a mostly empty hall.

Netanyahu:

They tell me the "PA promised us." "It will reform."

We’ve heard these promises for decades. They always promise they never deliver.

Palestinian Authority is corrupt to the core.

They teach their children to hate Jews and destroy the Jewish State.

Netanyahu:

Giving the Palestinians a state 1 mile from Jerusalem after October 7th, is like giving Al-Qaeda a state 1 mile from NYC after 9/11.
