Netanyahu Calls Critical Diplomats 'Moral Cowards' at UN in New York
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu delivered a speech at the UN General Assembly in New York, criticizing Western nations for their stance on the Gaza war and labeling departing diplomats as moral cowards. Tens of ambassadors left the hall during his address to protest Israel's military actions. Netanyahu defended Israel's right to self-defense, compared the October 7 attacks to 9/11, praised US President Donald Trump, and claimed that many leaders thanked Israel for neutralizing Iran's nuclear capabilities.
