Different countries, dragging them into the dungeons of gaza. Everyone has brought home 134 of those hostages, including 117 returned alive. I want to assure you, we will not rest until the remaining hostages are brought home too. Some of the Family Members are here before us today. I ask you to stand up. Applause with us as early stevie, whose son was abducted from the nova music festival. These murderous monsters took him. A corpse held hostage. It rave arab israeli soldier who was murdered. His body was also taken to gaza. With us as a woman whose brother was murdered. With us too. Thankfully we achieve the release of his mother, but his father are still languishing in an underground Terrorist Hill of hamas. I again promise you, we will return your Loved Ones home. We will not spirit that effort until this holy mission is accomplished. Applause ladies and gentlemen, the curse of October 7 began when hamas invaded israel from gaza. But it didnt end there. Israel was soon forced to defend itself on six more were Friends Organised by iran. On october 8, hezbollah attacked is from lebanon. Since then they have fired over 8000 rockets at our towns and cities and our civilians, and armed children. Two weeks later, the iran backed houthis in yemen launched drones and missiles at israel, the first of 250 such attacks, including one yesterday aimed at tel aviv. Irans militias in iraq have targeted a real dozens of times over the past year as well. Fuelled by iran, palestinian terrorists in judaea fuelled by iran, palestinian Terrorists Injudaea and Samaria Perpetrated Scores of attacks there and throughout israel. Last april, for the first time ever, iran directly attacked israel from its own territory, firing few hundred drones, Cruise Missiles and ballistic missiles at us. I have a message for the tyrants of iran. If you strike us, we will strike you. Applause there is no place in iran that the long arm of Israel Cannot reach, and that is true of the entire middle east. Farfrom the Lands Led to the slaughter, israels soldiers have thought back with incredible courage and with heroic Sacrifice Stop and with heroic Sacrifice Stop and i have another message for this assembly and for the world outside us all. We are winning ladies and gentlemen, as israel defends itself against iran in the seventh front war, the line separating the blessing and the curse could not be more clear. This is the map i presented here last year. It is the map of a blessing. It shows a real and as arab partners forming the Land Bridge connecting asia and europe, between the Indian Ocean and the mediterranean sea. Across this bridge we will lay rail lines, energy pipelines, Fibre Optic cables, and this will serve the betterment of 2 Billion people. Now look at the second map. It is a map of a curse. It is the map ofan arc is a map of a curse. It is the map of an arc of terror that iran has created an in house from the Indian Ocean to the mediterranean sea. International waterways shut off, International Trade cut off. It destroys nations from within an Influx Misery on millions. On the one hand, a bright blessing, a feature of hope. On the other hand, a dark future of despair. And if you think this Dark Matter is only a curse for israel, if you think that, then you should think that, then you should think again. Because irans aggression, if unchecked, will endanger every single country in the middle east, and many, many countries in the rest of the world. Because iran seeks to impose its radicalism well beyond the middle east. That is why it funds Terror Networks on five continents. That is why it bills ballistic missiles for nuclear warheads to threaten the entire world. For too long, the entire world. For too long, the world has appeased iran. It turns a blind eye to its internal and external aggression. Well, that appeasement must end, and that appeasement must end, and that appeasement must end now. Applause nations of the world should support the brave people of iran who want to rid themselves of this evil regime. Responsible government should not only support israel enrolling back irans aggression, they should join israel and stop hearing irans nuclear weapons programme. In this body and the Security Council, we are going to have a deliberation in a few months. I call on the Security Council to Snap Back un Security Council sanctions against iran, because we must all do everything in our power to ensure that iran never gets nuclear weapons. For decades, ive been warning the world against irans nuclear programme. Ouractions world against irans nuclear programme. Our actions delayed this programme by perhaps a decade. But we havent stopped it. We have delayed it but we havent stopped it. Iran seeks now to rip in eyes as nuclear programme. Forthe now to rip in eyes as nuclear programme. For the sake of the Peace And Security of all your countries, for the sake of the Peace And Security of the entire world, we must not let that happen. I assure you, israel will do everything in its power to make sure it doesnt happen. So, ladies and gentlemen, the question before us is simple. Which of these two maps that i showed you will shape our future . Two maps that i showed you will shape ourfuture . Will two maps that i showed you will shape our future . Will it be the blessings of Peace And Prosperity for israel, our arab partners and the rest of the world . Orwill partners and the rest of the world . Or will it be at the curse in which iran and its proxies spread Carnage And Chaos everywhere . Israel has already made its choice. We have decided to advance the blessing. We are building a Partnership For Peace with our arab neighbours while of fighting the forces of terror at that get in that piece. For nearly a year at the brave men and women of the idf have been systematically crushing hamas� s Terror Army at that once ruled gaza. On October 7, the day that invasion israel, not Terror Army numbered nearly 40,000 territories, armed with more than 15,000 rockets. It had feared a 50 miles of terror tunnels, an underground network bigger than the new new York Subway system. A year later, the idf has killed or captured more than half of these terrorists, destroyed over 90 of the Rocket Arsenal and eliminated the key segments of their terror tunnel network. Applause in major Military Operations we destroyed nearly half of hamas, nearly all of hamas� s terror battalions, 23 out of 24 battalions. Now to complete our victory, we are focused on mopping up hamas� s remain fighting capabilities. We are taking out senior Terrorist Commanders and destroying remaining terrorist infrastructure. But all the while, we remain focused on our secret mission bringing our hostages home. And we will not stop until that mission is complete. Ladies and gentlemen, even with Hamas Plasma greatly diminished military capability, the terror is still exercise some governing power in gaza. By some governing power in gaza. By stealing the food that we enable Aid Agencies to bring into gaza. Hamas steals the food, and then they hike the prices. They feed their bellies, and then they fill their coffers with money that they extort from their own people. They sell the stolen food at exorbitant prices, and thats how they stay in power. This too has to end, and we are working to bring it to an end. Applause the reason is simple. Because if hamas stays in power it will regroup, rearm, and Attack Israel again and again and again, as it has vowed to do. So, hamas has got to go. Just imagine, for those who say, well, hamas has to stay, it has to be start of a post war gaza. Imagine in a Post War Situation in World War ii, imagine allowing the defeated nazis in 1945 to rebuild germany. It is inconceivable, it is ridiculous. It didnt happen then, it isnt going to happen now. This is why israel will reject any rule for hamas in a post war gaza. We dont seek to resettle gaza. What we seek is a demilitarised and deradicalise gaza. Only then can we ensure that this round of fighting will be the last round of fighting. We are ready to work with regional and other partners to support a local civilian administration in gaza committed to peaceful coexistence. As for the hostages, i have a message for the hamas captors let them go. Let them go, all of them. Those alive today must be returned alive. And the remains of those whom you brutally killed must be returned to their families. Those families who are before us today and others in israel deserve to have a Resting Place for their Loved Ones, a place where they can grieve and remember them. This war. Ladies and gentlemen, this war can come to an end now. All that has to happen is for hamas to surrender, lay down its arms and release all the hostages. But if they dont, we will fight until we achieve victory, total victory. That is no substitute for it. Applause israel must also defeat hezbollah in lebanon. Hezbollah is the quintessential Terror Organisation in the world today. It has. Tentacles. That span in all continents. It has murdered more americans and more frenchmen than any group except bin laden. It has murdered the citizens of american trees represented in this room. And it has attacked israel viciously in a last 20 years. In the last year, completely unprovoked, a day after the Hamas Massacre on october the 7th, hezbollah began attacks against israel which forced more than 60,000 israelis on our northern border to leave their homes becoming refugees in their own land. Hezbollah turned violent towns in the north of israel into Ghost Towns. Think of this in equivalent american terms. Just imagine if terrorists turned El Paso in San Diego into Ghost Towns then ask
