No Country For Anyone

Certainly no one-world government for anyone:

Benjamin Netanyahu struck a defiant tone in his speech to the United Nations General Assembly, vowing to continue Israel’s war in Gaza until Hamas is destroyed and slamming Western countries that recognized Palestinian statehood in recent days.

(Sidebar: Trump delivered a speech to the UN and it was EPIC!)

“We will not commit national suicide because you don’t have the guts to face down a hostile media and anti-Semitic mobs demanding Israel’s blood,” the prime minister said in New York on Friday, referring to the recognition of Palestine by France, the U.K., Canada and others. The message to Hamas, Netanyahu said, was that “murdering Jews pays off.”

Many delegates walked out as Netanyahu prepared to speak, leaving the hall largely empty.

(Sidebar: RUDE!)

Israel’s longest serving leader cited the country’s military successes over Iran-backed militias and Tehran itself over the past year. He said that while Israel wanted to end the war in Gaza “as fast as possible,” it wouldn’t stop until Hamas was defeated or surrendered.

He spoke of the violence perpetrated by Hamas — designated a terrorist organization by the U.S., European Union and others — on Oct. 7, 2023. That day, it attacked Israel, killing 1,200 people and taking another 250 as hostages.

From the same country where people believe that the Holocaust was fabricated, where Hamas enjoys support, where terrorism is supported, and a Ukrainian Nazi was applauded in the House of Commons:

More than a quarter of Canadians believe “Jews are often to blame for any acts of prejudice they face,” according to a new national poll that the researcher says is indicative of post-October 7 victim-blaming on social media.

Leger found that 28 per cent of Canadians agree (nine per cent strongly and 19 per cent somewhat) with the statement that Jews are often to blame. The poll, which was conducted for the Association for Canadian Studies, found that just under three-quarters (72 per cent) of Canadians disagreed (37 per cent strongly and 35 per cent somewhat).
