Israel ambassador blasts U.N. 'silence' over Hamas atrocities; to wear yellow star until terrorists condemned

"Israel's ambassador to the United Nations gave a blistering speech at the world body on Monday, blasting the Security Council for not condemning Hamas terrorists for the intentional murder of Israeli civilians on Oct. 7, and remaining silent just like the ‘world’ did when Nazis killed innocent Jews at Auschwitz.

Ambassador Gilad Erdan addressed the emergency meeting on the Israel-Hamas war, which was convened at the request of the United Arab Emirates.

During his address, he attacked the Security Council’s silence on the heinous acts committed by Hamas terrorists, likening it to when his grandfather Chaim and his children were sent to Auschwitz.

‘When his babies were sent to the gas chambers, the world stayed silent. When their bodies were burned along millions of other Jewish children, the world was silent,’ Erdan said.

‘Today, after innocent Jewish babies were burned alive, this Council is still silent. Some of you have learned nothing in the past 80 years. Some of you have forgotten why this body was established.’

He reminded them that every day after today, he wanted each member of the Security Council to remember what he said while they all remained silent in the face of evil.

‘Just like my grandparents, and the grandparents of millions of Jews, from now on, my team and I will wear Yellow Stars. We will wear this star until you wake up and condemn the atrocities of Hamas,’ Erdan said. ‘We will walk with a yellow star as a symbol of pride. A reminder that we swore to fight back to defend ourselves.’...

He blasted the U.N. for not condemning the ‘Nazi murderers,’ accusing them of giving the terrorists fodder for their efforts when the UN General Assembly was seen ‘applauding efforts to prevent the Jews’ from defending themselves.

‘They heard the Secretary-General portray understanding for the Nazi slaughter. And this is precisely why we have seen the most staggering rise in Jew-hatred since the Nuremburg laws and their aftermath. The antisemites have been empowered,’ Erdan said. ‘They now know that slaughtering Jews in their beds, is met with silence. They have been so galvanized by this organization’s inaction that they cannot wait to butcher Jews themselves.’..."
