Israel’s ambassador to the UN, Gilad Erdan, told members of the Security Council the war on Gaza has “nothing to do with the Palestinians” – as it’s all about the Hamas attack on October 7, which began with a rocket barrage.

“The rockets were only cover for the pogrom that followed. Barbaric Hamas terrorists invaded Israel from the sea, the land, and the air. They came with one purpose: to savagely murder every living thing they encountered. Hamas Nazi murderers went from house to house with hitlists – a thoroughly planned, willful, premeditated attack,” Erdan said.

“Many may be asking why did they film their sadistic violence. Well, I’ll tell you why. They filmed it in order to terrorize the Israeli public – to release these videos and put fear in the hearts of Israeli citizens. This is what terrorists do – they terrorize.”

Israel’s envoy Erdan says the UN’s emergency session has “nothing to do with peace”.

“Every member state who is convinced we are here to discuss another round of conflict in the Middle East – another dispute between Israel and the Palestinians – is wrong. The October 7 massacre and what ensued has nothing to do with the Palestinians. Nothing.

“It has nothing to do with the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, or the Palestinian question. This is not a war with the Palestinians. Israel is at war with the genocidal jihadist Hamas terror organisation. It is the law-abiding democracy of Israel against modern-day Nazis,” said Erdan.
