Benjamin Netanyahu

Mr. President, Ladies and Gentlemen,
The Middle East is not exactly renowned for producing good news, and few expected this year to be any different. You know, the pandemic is ravaging our part of the world like everywhere else.
But I am pleased to report to you that this year, I can tell you about good news from the Middle East. In fact, I can report two pieces of good news.
Earlier this month, at a White House ceremony hosted by President Trump, Israel signed historic agreements with (...)
Remarks by Benjamin Netanyahu to the 73rd Session of the United Nations General Assembly
by
Benjamin Netanyahu

Distinguished delegates, ladies and gentlemen,
When I spoke here three years ago Israel stood alone among the nations. Of the nearly 200 countries that sit in this hall, only Israel openly opposed the nuclear deal with Iran. We oppose it because it threatens our future, even our very survival. We opposed it because the deal paved Iran’s path to a nuclear arsenal. And by lifting the sanctions, it fueled Iran’s campaign of carnage and conquest throughout the Middle East. We oppose it because (...)

Good evening. Tonight, we’re going to show you something that the world has never seen before. Tonight, we are going to reveal new and conclusive proof of the secret nuclear weapons program that Iran has been hiding for years from the international community in its secret atomic archive.
We’re going to show you Iran’s secret nuclear files.
You may well know that Iran’s leaders repeatedly deny ever pursuing nuclear weapons. You can listen to Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei: “I stress that (...)

Thank you.
(APPLAUSE)
Thank you…
(APPLAUSE)
… Speaker of the House John Boehner, President Pro Tem Senator Orrin Hatch, Senator Minority — Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, and House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy.
I also want to acknowledge Senator, Democratic Leader Harry Reid. Harry, it’s good to see you back on your feet.
(APPLAUSE)
I guess it’s true what they say, you can’t keep a good man down.
(LAUGHTER)
My friends, I’m deeply humbled by the (...)

Thank you very much Mr. President.
It’s a pleasure to see the General Assembly presided by the Ambassador from Israel, and it’s good to see all of you, distinguished delegates.
Ladies and Gentlemen,
Three thousand years ago, King David reigned over the Jewish state in our eternal capital, Jerusalem. I say that to all those who proclaim that the Jewish state has no roots in our region and that it will soon disappear.
Throughout our history, the Jewish people have overcome all the tyrants (...)

Thank you, Mr. President.
Ladies and gentlemen, Israel has extended its hand in peace from the moment it was established 63 years ago. On behalf of Israel and the Jewish people, I extend that hand again today. I extend it to the people of Egypt and Jordan, with renewed friendship for neighbors with whom we have made peace. I extend it to the people of Turkey, with respect and good will. I extend it to the people of Libya and Tunisia, with admiration for those trying to build a democratic (...)

I am deeply moved by your warm welcome. And I am deeply honored that you have given me the opportunity to address Congress a second time.
Mr. Vice President, do you remember the time that we were the new kids in town?
And I do see a lot of old friends here. And I see a lot of new friends of Israel here. Democrats and Republicans alike.
Israel has no better friend than America. And America has no better friend than Israel. We stand together to defend democracy. We (...)

Members of the Obama Administration,
Senators,
Members of Congress,
Ambassadors,
Leaders of AIPAC,
Ladies and Gentlemen,
As the world faces monumental challenges, I know that Israel and America will face them together. We stand together because we are fired by the same ideals and inspired by the same dream the dream of achieving security, prosperity and peace. This dream seemed impossible to many Jews a century ago.
This month, my father celebrated his one-hundredth birthday. When he (...)
Benjamin Netanyahu’s Speech at the General Assembly of the Jewish Federations of North America
by
Benjamin Netanyahu

The story of the Jewish people is that of great destruction followed by miraculous redemption. That same resilient spirit is exemplified by your collective efforts to help this great city rebuild itself after Hurricane Katrina.
Just as you have rallied time after time to help Israel weather the storms it has faced, you rallied to help New Orleans to get back on its feet.
You should be proud of what you have been doing for the Jewish people and the Jewish state, and for others. I am (...)

To paraphrase Elton John, nothing would keep me away from here, not even a vote on passing the two-year budget which is another one of the novelties that we’re introducing into the economic world. Nothing would keep me from coming here because I want to be with all of you, beginning with my friends – I think a great Jewish leader – Natan Sharansky. You talk about inspiration? That’s inspiration. You have provided it and you are providing it in bushels and buckets and trucks, because you’ve (...)
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s statement on the storming of the Freedom Flotilla
by
Benjamin Netanyahu

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was speaking at the end of a meeting with Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper.
We are in the middle of unfolding events as a result of what happened yesterday. I explained to the Prime Minister that I would have to cut my visit short and go back to Israel. I just had a conversation with President Obama and I told him that I would have to go back to Israel. We both agreed that we’d have very close consultations right now and try to reschedule our (...)

Thank you very much. I think it was Woody Allen that said he spent a lifetime trying to arrive late at a Jewish event, and never made it. I came on time with my wife Sara, the mother of Avner and Yair and it’s very good to be with all of you.
As the world faces monumental challenges, I know that America and Israel will face them together. We stand together because we are fired by the same ideals and inspired by the same dreams – the dreams of achieving prosperity, security and peace for (...)

Thank you Professor Reichman, for that introduction. You are a visionary and practical man. You established an amazing organization. When Ron Lauder told me about your plans, he told me to wait and see how you would mobilize to create a national and international forum every year that would shape patterns of thinking and refresh them. My friend Uzi Arad joined you and worked alongside you to help do this, and our friend Professor Rubenstein is doing so now. I think you have proven over (...)
