A mass walkout of delegates before Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s address to the United Nations General Assembly prompted a fiery response from the Israeli leader.
As Netanyahu took the stage, dozens of delegates from across the globe could be seen streaming out of the chamber in New York City. Chants of protest could also be heard in the hall as the U.N. president called the assembly to order.
After taking the stage, Netanyahu said, "Before I begin, just a quick announcement, if there are any other moral cowards who haven't yet left this hall, please do so now," as cheers erupted from the remaining delegates in the chamber.
The Israeli leader did not let up for the rest of his address. He began by laying out what he described as the stakes of the conflict in Iran. He proclaimed that "devastating Iran's nuclear facilities was hard, it was very hard to do, but for me, it was one of the easiest decisions I've ever had to make as prime minister. Because if we hadn't done it, we'd all be dead."
"Now, you want to hear the ultimate irony?" he continued. "In defending itself, Israel is also defending many of the countries whose delegates just left this hall. In fact, I want you to know that many of the 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," said Netanyahu.
The protests came as conflict in the Middle East continued and Israel faced criticism over its actions in the region. Netanyahu's address drew protests from delegates inside the U.N. chamber and demonstrators outside the building, including Hollywood celebrities Elliot Page and Susan Sarandon.

Who are they kidding? They all need Israel as an entity to hate. If they cared so much about the filthy Palestinians they could open refugee camps in Syria, Jordan, Lebanon or Egypt. Won’t happen because they all know the Palis are violent scum. Free,free your mind!
You never had that meatloaf delivered, did ya? The screams for mom have to be a little louder than that. You can do it. I know you can.

Netanyahu makes antisemites uncomfortable.
Anti-Israel sentiment is definitely increasing, even CNN had a report on this.
It’s on the political left and right.
Bibi is largely to blame for this.
Bibi to blame? Care to explain?
When you no longer have a career I guess you have a lot of time on your hands.

“Bibi is largely to blame for this.”
Oh , please. Ghandi could be running Israel and they’d still be hated.
