Last week, the United Nations General Assembly convened. As usual, the heads of state from across the world made the pilgrimage to New York to appear before the delegates and speak their minds.
Vladimir Putin defended Russia’s entrance into the Middle East and chided the U.S. and the West for arming ISIS and al-Qaeda, thus causing the mess in that region.
Mahmoud Abbas (though he is not a head of state since the West Bank is not a state) announced that the Palestinian Authority would no longer observe the agreements they had signed with Israel.
But the most dramatic appearance by far was that of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Frankly, no surprise there. He seems to be the only world leader with something to say and the nerve to say it.
He confronted the member nations of the UN for sitting idly by while the West signed a nuclear pact with Iran. He chastised them for not speaking up when Iran openly threatens to destroy Israel and the Jewish people.
He said: “…the response from nearly every one of the governments represented here has been absolutely nothing! Utter silence! Deafening silence!”
Then, in one of the most powerful and unforgettable moments in the UN’s history, the Prime Minister stood silent, staring at the audience for a full 45 seconds.
No one spoke up. No one clapped. You could hear a pin drop.
The Prime Minister reminded the members that other empires throughout history had tried to destroy his people. He proclaimed, “Yet the empires of Babylon and Rome are not represented in this hall of nations. Neither is the thousand year Reich. Those seemingly invincible empires are long gone. But Israel lives. The people of Israel live. Am Yisrael chai!“
Wow! Is this prophecy in living color, or what?
