Of the country, as fighting between the Idf And Hezbollah continues he warned hezbollah s Backer Iran that there is no place in iran that the long arm of israel cannot reach. Mr netanyahu said hamas has got to go and would have no role in the reconstruction of gaza and he described the united nations as this House Of Darkness mired in antisemitism. Here are some of the key parts from Mr Natanyahus 35 minute speech. The curse of October 7th began when hamas invaded israel from gaza, but it didnt end there. Israel was soon forced to defend itself on six more War Fronts organised by iran. On october 8th, hezbollah attacked us from lebanon. Since then, theyve fired over 8,000 rockets at our towns and cities, at our civilians, at our children. We are focussed on mopping up hamas s remaining fighting capabilities. We are taking out senior Terrorist Commanders and destroying remaining terrorist infrastructure. But all the while, all the while and ill say this one more time, we remain focussed
Maybe you all have a better answer is why this is not more the responsibility of israels neighbours, of lebanon said neighbours .

That makes no sense to me. ,. ,. , brother. That makes no sense to me. E. , brother. That makes no sense to me. , me. Its a good point, its something. Me. Its a good point, its something. Aaron, me. Its a good point, itsj something. Aaron, lets me. Its a good point, its something. Aaron, lets get you back again. While you are thinking about an answer im going to bring another line coming in for the from reuters news agency, this is quoting a senior israeli official that says israel is saying it is the only force actively fighting iran and its proxy. Just going back to the point that hillary was making. Why are other countries within the region not more actively involved . It does
Group except Bin Laden its and it is attacked israel viciously over the last 20 years in the last year, completely unprovoked a day after Hamas Massacre on October 7, 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 vibrant towns in the north of israel into Ghost Towns so i want you to think about this Inequivalent American Terms just imagine if terrorists turned El Paso and San Diego into Ghost Towns then ask yourself, how long would the american government tolerate that . A day, a Week Amman i doubt they tolerated even for a single day yet israel has been tolerating this intolerable situation for nearly a year well, ive come here today to say enough is enough citizens can return safely to their homes. We will not accept a Terror Army perched on our northern border, able to perpetrate another October 7 Style Massacre for 18 years because Balah Brazenly refuse
