World leader on child executions, Iran, tells UN Israelis are "child killers"

Two Iranian teenagers, suspected of being gay, before their execution in 2005.
At the UN on November 1, 2016, Iran – the world's most prolific executioner of children and sponsor of terror – accused Israel of being "child-killers" and the "prime source" of terror. The statement was made at the General Assembly's Fourth Committee (comprised of all 193 UN member states) following Israel's criticism of another grossly one-sided UN report on the "human rights of the Palestinian people."

Iran, which has executed dozens of children over the last decade and tortured confessions out of minors for crimes such as "enmity against God," labeled Israel as an "occupying, child-killer illegal regime." Moreover, the world's leading state sponsor of terrorism accused Israel of being the main source of terror.

In its words:

"[T]he Israeli regime... resorted to all kinds of atrocities... [W]ar crimes and crimes against humanity have indeed been committed by this occupying child-killer illegal regime...which is the prime source of threat, terror, and administration in the whole world..."
