Israeli Prime Minister Netahyahu Address to UN (Video of the 9/23/11 speech)
C-Span ^ | 9/23/11 | Israeli Prime Minister Netahyahu

Here's a excerpt of today's speech, which I took from Powerlineblog.com:

"Well, this is an unfortunate part of the U.N. institution. It’s the — the theater of the absurd. It doesn’t only cast Israel as the villain; it often casts real villains in leading roles: Gadhafi’s Libya chaired the U.N. Commission on Human Rights; Saddam’s Iraq headed the U.N. Committee on Disarmament.

You might say: That’s the past. Well, here’s what’s happening now — right now, today. Hezbollah-controlled Lebanon now presides over the U.N. Security Council. This means, in effect, that a terror organization presides over the body entrusted with guaranteeing the world’s security.

When you click the link, the C-Span headline is: "Palestinian & Israeli Leaders Address General Assembly." The first part of the video is Netahyahu's speech; I guess it includes the Palestinian guy's speech later on (think I'll miss that one.)

He gave a good speech. Hopefully the world’s media will pick up on some of it and at least give it a fair airing.

Thanks for posting. I listened to every word. My heart aches for Israel, but at least their leader is an intelligent and honorable man.

Great speech, while I didn’t watch the video I read the transcript on another thread. He told it like it is.

God bless Israel and its leaders.

“Theater of the absurd”—Bibi summed up the UN in four words.
