\u201cI decided to come here to speak for my people, to speak for my country and speak for the truth,\u201d he stated, stressing that Israel yearns for peace.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe face savage enemies who seek our annihilation, and we must defend ourselves against these savage murderers, [who] seek not only to destroy us but also destroy our common civilization and return all of us to a dark age of tyranny and terror.\u201d<\/p>\n

He recalled his address to the general debate last year, when he had stated that Israel faces the same timeless choice that Moses put before its people thousands of years ago, \u201cthat our actions will determine whether we bequeath future generations a blessing or a curse.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd that is the choice we face today,\u201d he emphasized, citing \u201cthe curse of Iran\u2019s unremitting aggression or the blessing of a historic reconciliation between Arab and Jew.\u201d<\/p>\n

In the days that followed, that \u201cblessing\u201d approached in the form of a normalization deal between Saudi Arabia and Israel, \u201cbut then came the curse of 7 October\u201d as thousands of Iranian-backed Hamas terrorists burst into Israel, committing \u201cunimaginable atrocities\u201d, including brutally murdering 1,200 people, including children; sexual violence against women; and kidnapping 251 people from different countries.<\/p>\n

\u201cScenes reminiscent of the Nazi holocaust,\u201d Prime Minister Netanyahu stressed.<\/p>\n
