Dear John,

PRIME MINISTER BENJAMIN NETANYAHU RECENTLY DELIVERED AN AWE-INSPIRING
VISION OF WHAT PEACE IN THE MIDDLE EAST CAN ACHIEVE, a peace I
experienced in my childhood and later when Israel delivered a
short-lived peace between Lebanon and Israel following the first
Lebanese War.

WE’VE GATHERED KEY EXCERPTS FROM HIS 4200-WORD SPEECH FOR THOSE OF
YOU SHORT ON TIME. Remember, the Abraham Accords that Netanyahu
refers to and the bold recognition of Jerusalem as Israel's capital,
23 years in the making, were only realized during the Trump
administration. _That legacy has reshaped the Middle East._

MANY VOTERS RECOGNIZE THAT THE PATH TO PEACE IN THE MIDDLE EAST AND
STABILITY AT HOME HINGES ON CHOOSING A PROVEN LEADER. Under Trump’s
administration, key achievements such as the Abraham Accords
transformed regional diplomatic relations, fostering newfound
alliances and cooperation _no one believed possible_.

IN CONTRAST, THE LEGACY OF THE OBAMA-BIDEN-HARRIS ADMINISTRATIONS
ENRICHED AND EMPOWERED IRAN, nearing nuclear capabilities, and
orchestrated a catastrophic, humiliating withdrawal from Afghanistan
that has empowered, armed, and enriched the Taliban, Al Qaeda, and
ISIS; this is unforgivable! At the same time, both nations receive
BILLIONS of taxpayer money! The world is undeniably more dangerous
under these administration's leadership and foreign policies.

THIS MOMENT IS A TIME OF CHOOSING: Will we choose the clear path
toward peace and security, or will we risk a return to darkness and
conflict?

 

EXCERPTS FROM NETANYAHU’S UN SPEECH: ‘ENOUGH IS ENOUGH’

September 27, 2024 | FULL SPEECH
[[link removed]]

MR. PRESIDENT, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, I DIDN’T INTEND TO COME HERE
THIS YEAR. MY COUNTRY IS AT WAR, FIGHTING FOR ITS LIFE.

But after I heard the lies and slanders leveled at my country by many
of the speakers at this podium, I decided to come here and set the
record straight. I decided to come here to speak for my people.

TO SPEAK FOR MY COUNTRY, TO SPEAK FOR THE TRUTH. AND HERE’S THE
TRUTH: ISRAEL SEEKS PEACE. ISRAEL YEARNS FOR PEACE. ISRAEL HAS MADE
PEACE AND WILL MAKE PEACE AGAIN. YET WE FACE SAVAGE ENEMIES WHO SEEK
OUR ANNIHILATION, AND WE MUST DEFEND OURSELVES AGAINST THEM.

THESE SAVAGE MURDERERS, OUR ENEMIES, SEEK NOT ONLY TO DESTROY US, BUT
THEY SEEK TO DESTROY OUR COMMON CIVILIZATION AND RETURN ALL OF US TO A
DARK AGE OF TYRANNY AND TERROR. When I spoke here last year, I said we
face the same timeless choice that Moses put before the people of
Israel thousands of years ago, as we were about to enter the Promised
Land. Moses told us that our actions would determine whether we
bequeath to future generations a blessing or a curse.

AND THAT IS THE CHOICE WE FACE TODAY: the curse of Iran’s
unremitting aggression or the blessing of a historic reconciliation
between Arab and Jew.

A NORMALIZATION DEAL BETWEEN SAUDI ARABIA AND ISRAEL SEEMED CLOSER
THAN EVER. _BUT THEN CAME THE CURSE OF OCTOBER 7TH._ Thousands of
Iranian-backed Hamas terrorists from Gaza burst into Israel in pickup
trucks and on motorcycles, and they committed unimaginable atrocities.
They savagely murdered 1,200 people. They raped and mutilated women.
They beheaded men. They burned babies alive. They burned entire
families alive—babies, children, parents, grandparents, in scenes
reminiscent of the Nazi Holocaust.

HAMAS KIDNAPPED 251 PEOPLE FROM DOZENS OF DIFFERENT COUNTRIES,
DRAGGING THEM INTO THE DUNGEONS OF GAZA. Israel has brought home 154
of these hostages, including 117 who returned alive. I want to assure
you, we will not rest until the remaining hostages are brought home
too.

WAR ON SEVEN FRONTS

The curse of October 7th began when Hamas invaded Israel from Gaza.
But it didn’t end there. _ISRAEL WAS SOON FORCED TO DEFEND ITSELF ON
SIX MORE WAR FRONTS, ALL BACKED BY IRAN._

ON OCTOBER 8TH, HEZBOLLAH ATTACKED FROM LEBANON, LAUNCHING OVER 8,000
ROCKETS AT OUR CIVILIANS. TWO WEEKS LATER, IRAN-BACKED HOUTHIS IN
YEMEN BEGAN DRONE AND MISSILE STRIKES, WITH 250 ATTACKS AIMED AT
ISRAEL, INCLUDING ONE RECENTLY TARGETING TEL AVIV. IRAN’S MILITIAS
IN SYRIA AND IRAQ HAVE ALSO REPEATEDLY ATTACKED ISRAEL. PALESTINIAN
TERRORISTS IN JUDEA AND SAMARIA CARRIED OUT NUMEROUS ASSAULTS, AND
LAST APRIL, IRAN ATTACKED ISRAEL DIRECTLY, FIRING 300 DRONES AND
MISSILES FROM ITS OWN TERRITORY.

I HAVE A MESSAGE FOR TEHRAN: If you strike us, we will strike back.
There is no place in Iran—or the entire Middle East—that the long
arm of Israel cannot reach.

Our soldiers fight with courage and sacrifice. And I have another
message for this assembly: We are winning.

BLESSING OR CURSE

AS ISRAEL DEFENDS ITSELF IN A SEVEN-FRONT WAR, THE STAKES HAVE NEVER
BEEN CLEARER. On one side, we see a future of hope, symbolized by
Israel's collaboration with its Arab partners—building a bridge of
peace through trade, infrastructure, and innovation. On the other
side, there is an arc of terror, stretching from the Indian Ocean to
the Mediterranean, orchestrated by Iran's brutal regime. This arc
seeks to stifle nations, cut off trade, and spread chaos across the
Middle East and beyond.

IRAN'S AGGRESSION THREATENS NOT JUST ISRAEL BUT THE WORLD. It funds
terror across five continents, builds missiles designed to carry
nuclear warheads, and has long been appeased by the international
community. That appeasement must end. Nations must rally not only to
support Israel's fight but also to stand with the people of Iran in
their pursuit of freedom from tyranny.

As we fight, we are dismantling Hamas in Gaza, a terror army that once
ruled with an iron fist, its forces and infrastructure now largely
destroyed. But this victory is not complete until we finish the job,
ensuring a demilitarized and de-radicalized Gaza, free from Hamas's
exploitation of its own people. Total victory is the only path
forward—there can be no role for Hamas in Gaza’s future.

THE WORLD FACES A CHOICE BETWEEN THESE TWO FUTURES: one of blessing,
peace, and prosperity, or one of terror, despair, and destruction.
Israel has made its choice, and we call on the world to join us in
securing a better future for all.

ON HEZBOLLAH, ‘ENOUGH IS ENOUGH’

ISRAEL MUST DEFEAT HEZBOLLAH, THE WORLD'S QUINTESSENTIAL TERROR
ORGANIZATION. Responsible for the deaths of more Americans and French
citizens than any group except Bin Laden, Hezbollah has attacked
Israel viciously for over 20 years. After the October 7th massacre by
Hamas, Hezbollah escalated attacks, turning vibrant Israeli towns into
ghost towns and displacing over 60,000 citizens. IMAGINE IF TERRORISTS
EMPTIED U.S. CITIES LIKE EL PASO AND SAN DIEGO—WOULD AMERICA
TOLERATE THAT FOR EVEN A DAY?

FOR 18 YEARS, HEZBOLLAH HAS DEFIED UN RESOLUTION 1701, POSITIONING
ITSELF RIGHT ON ISRAEL’S NORTHERN BORDER. They launch rockets from
civilian areas, using schools and homes in Lebanon as shields. To the
Lebanese, Israel’s message is clear: Hezbollah has hijacked your
country, and we’re not at war with you, but with them.

This week alone, Israel destroyed large portions of Hezbollah’s
rocket arsenal and eliminated senior commanders responsible for
Israeli, American, and French deaths. The campaign will continue until
Hezbollah’s threat is fully neutralized and Israeli citizens can
safely return home.

A PATH TO HISTORIC PEACE

We are committed to removing the curse of terrorism that threatens all
civilized societies. But to truly realize the blessing of a new Middle
East, we must continue the path of the Abraham Accords. Above all,
this means achieving a historic peace agreement between Israel and
Saudi Arabia.

THE BENEFITS OF SUCH PEACE ARE CLEAR: MILLIONS OF ISRAELIS HAVE
ALREADY FLOWN OVER SAUDI AIRSPACE TO GULF COUNTRIES, BRINGING TRADE,
TOURISM, AND JOINT VENTURES. A peace with Saudi Arabia would boost the
security and economy of both nations and help transform the Middle
East into a global powerhouse.

ISRAEL AND SAUDI ARABIA COULD COLLABORATE ON ENERGY, AGRICULTURE, AND
ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE, USHERING IN HISTORIC RECONCILIATION BETWEEN
THE ARAB WORLD AND ISRAEL. Yet, while Israel is committed to this,
Iran and its terror proxies aim to derail it. A peace with Saudi
Arabia would foil Iran’s designs and form the foundation for a
broader Abrahamic alliance, including Israel, the U.S., and other Arab
nations.

WITH AMERICAN SUPPORT, THIS VISION COULD MATERIALIZE SOONER THAN
EXPECTED. As Prime Minister of Israel, I will do everything in my
power to make it happen. This opportunity must not be missed.

A CHOICE FOR THE WORLD

ISRAEL HAS MADE ITS CHOICE. WE SEEK TO MOVE FORWARD TO A BRIGHT AGE OF
PROSPERITY AND PEACE. Iran and its proxies have made theirs—to move
back to a dark age of terror and war. NOW, I ASK YOU: WHAT CHOICE WILL
YOU MAKE? WILL YOUR NATION STAND WITH ISRAEL AND DEMOCRACY, OR WITH
IRAN, A BRUTAL DICTATORSHIP?

IN THIS BATTLE BETWEEN GOOD AND EVIL, THERE MUST BE NO EQUIVOCATION.
Standing with Israel means defending your own values and interests
against a common enemy that seeks to destroy our way of life.
Unfortunately, in many countries and even this hall, good is portrayed
as evil, and evil as good.

WE SEE THIS MORAL CONFUSION WHEN ISRAEL IS FALSELY ACCUSED OF GENOCIDE
WHILE DEFENDING ITSELF. We see it when Israel is accused by the ICC
Prosecutor of starving Palestinians, DESPITE BRINGING IN 700,000 TONS
OF FOOD. No army has done what Israel is doing to minimize civilian
casualties—dropping flyers, sending texts, making calls to ensure
civilians avoid harm.

PROGRESSIVES MARCH AGAINST ISRAELI DEMOCRACY, unknowingly supporting
the Iranian-backed goons who oppress women, protesters, and LGBTQ
people. According to U.S. intelligence, Iran fuels these protests,
maybe even some outside this building now.

King Solomon said: "There is nothing new under the sun." FORTY YEARS
AGO, I STOOD AT THIS VERY PODIUM DEFENDING ISRAEL AGAINST A PROPOSAL
TO EXPEL US FROM THE UN, AND HERE I AM AGAIN. PRESIDENT ABBAS LEADS
THE CHARGE THIS TIME, PAYING TERRORISTS THROUGH "PAY FOR SLAY" AND
WAGING WAR ON ISRAEL’S RIGHT TO EXIST AND DEFEND ITSELF.

_To those who support this resolution, I say: Check your fanaticism at
the door._

THE UN ‘SWAMP OF ANTISEMITIC BILE’

THE SINGLING OUT OF THE ONE AND ONLY JEWISH STATE REMAINS A MORAL
STAIN ON THE UNITED NATIONS. It has made this once-respected
institution contemptible in the eyes of decent people everywhere. FOR
THE PALESTINIANS, THIS UN HOUSE OF DARKNESS IS HOME COURT, WHERE AN
AUTOMATIC MAJORITY IS READY TO DEMONIZE THE JEWISH STATE. IN THIS
ANTI-ISRAEL FLAT-EARTH SOCIETY, ANY FALSE CHARGE CAN GATHER SUPPORT.

IN THE LAST DECADE, MORE RESOLUTIONS HAVE BEEN PASSED AGAINST ISRAEL
THAN THE ENTIRE WORLD COMBINED—174 TIMES SINCE 2014. THE REST OF THE
WORLD WAS CONDEMNED JUST 73 TIMES. WHAT HYPOCRISY, WHAT DOUBLE
STANDARD. WHAT A JOKE. ALL THE HOSTILITY AIMED AT ISRAEL THIS
YEAR—IT’S NOT ABOUT GAZA, IT’S ABOUT ISRAEL’S EXISTENCE. UNTIL
ISRAEL IS TREATED LIKE OTHER NATIONS, THE UN WILL BE SEEN AS A
CONTEMPTUOUS FARCE.

Given the antisemitism at the UN, it’s no surprise that the ICC
prosecutor is considering issuing arrest warrants against me and
Israel’s defense minister. His rush to judgment and refusal to treat
Israel as other democracies is nothing but pure antisemitism.

THE REAL WAR CRIMINALS ARE NOT IN ISRAEL. THEY’RE IN IRAN, GAZA,
SYRIA, LEBANON, AND YEMEN. Those who stand with evil against good
should be ashamed of themselves.

BUT I HAVE A MESSAGE FOR YOU: ISRAEL WILL WIN THIS BATTLE. WE WILL WIN
THIS BATTLE BECAUSE WE DON’T HAVE A CHOICE.

AFTER GENERATIONS IN WHICH OUR PEOPLE WERE SLAUGHTERED, REMORSELESSLY
BUTCHERED, AND NO ONE RAISED A FINGER IN OUR DEFENSE, WE NOW HAVE A
STATE [AGAIN]. We now have a brave army, an army of incomparable
courage, and we are defending ourselves.

As the book of Samuel says in the Bible:

“נֵ֣צַח יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל לֹ֥א
יְשַׁקֵּ֖ר”

“THE ETERNITY OF ISRAEL WILL NOT FALTER.”

In the Jewish people’s epic journey from antiquity, in our odyssey
through the tempest and upheavals of modern times, that ancient
promise has always been kept and it will hold true for all time.

TO BORROW A GREAT POET’S PHRASE: ISRAEL WILL NOT GO GENTLY INTO THAT
GOOD NIGHT. WE WILL NEVER NEED TO RAGE AGAINST THE DYING OF THE LIGHT
BECAUSE THE TORCH OF ISRAEL WILL FOREVER SHINE BRIGHT.

To the people of Israel and to the soldiers of Israel, I say: Be
strong and of good courage.

“חִזְק֣וּ וְאִמְצ֔וּ
אַל־תִּֽירְא֥וּ וְאַל־תַּעַרְצ֖וּ
מִפְּנֵיהֶ֑ם כִּ֣י ה’ אֱלֹקיךָ ה֚וּא
הַהֹלֵ֣ךְ עִמָּ֔ךְ לֹ֥א יַרְפְּךָ֖
וְלֹ֥א יַעַזְבֶֽךּ”

עם ישראל חי

THE PEOPLE OF ISRAEL LIVE NOW, TOMORROW, FOREVER.
