Today, I addressed the @UN General Assembly and spoke out against the baseless, one-sided, and outright false accusations from the Human Rights Council's annual report. 1/8
This year, the Human Rights Council has once again let us all down…. It has let down people all over the world who endure human rights abuses, every day, every hour, every minute – but their voices are not heard. 2/8

Yesterday, I visited the @AP HQ in New York to explain to top executives that the building housing their Gaza operation was being used by Hamas terrorists trying to jam the Iron Dome - that is why it was prioritize by the IDF during last month’s operation. 1/4
AP is one of the most important news agencies in the world and Israel does not suspect its employees were aware a covert Hamas unit was using the building in this way. 2/4

At UNGA today I told member states to stop ignoring Hamas' fanatical roots & uphold the UN’s Charter to “reaffirm faith in fundamental human rights/practice tolerance/maintain international/peace & security.’
Excerpts from my speech in this thread: 1/9

Today, I addressed the UNSC’s debate on ‘The situation in the Middle East, including the Palestinian Question.’
I highlighted the need for more focus on Iran’s nuclear ambitions and on the upcoming PA election.
Here are some excerpts from my speech:
Hadi Kiani, Mohammad Bastami, Mehdi Salehi, Majid Nazari and Abbas Mohammadi will most likely join the thousands of others murdered for speaking out against the world's most abusive regime. And yet, today's UNSC debate will focus once again on Israel.

There is an incredible amount of fake news being spread regarding Israel's fight against the anti-Semitic #BDS campaign and the case of #LaraAlqasem. It's time to set the record straight. Here are the facts: 1/5
Israel, like every democracy, has the right to prevent the entry of foreign nationals, especially those working to harm the country. Therefore we work to prevent the entry of those who promote the anti-Semitic BDS campaign, which calls for Israel's destruction #LaraAlqasem 2/5
