Sandy Rios: Well, hi, this is Sandy rios on Sandy Rios 24 7. Well, last week or recently, the 81st session of the United Nations General assembly convened in NewSong York City. You may remember that I was there just right before it convened and gave you a bit of a report with Jim Garlow. but two of the most important leaders in the world spoke at that meeting. And it's my intention this week to let you hear what they had to say. You know, I always tell you that, that I don't think you're hearing most of you unless you really work at it. You're not really hearing everything. There's a lot of stuff you don't hear that you need to know about. And even if you did watch these speeches, I think it will benefit you to listen. I've listened like about two or three times now and I've learned something every time. So those two speakers are Benjamin Netanyahu and Donald J. Trump. And they knocked it out of the ballpark, both of them. But I wanted to set it up because, when Benjamin Netanyahu came up to the platform, at least half if not two thirds of the assembly left the building. And this is what it sounded like. Ram m. Order in the hall, please. Order in the hall, please. I request an order in the hall, please. I request an order in the hall, please.
Sandy Rios: All right, so that's how it sounded. And of course that, that's the Arabic yellow. I mean it's really battle, it's full out war between the Muslims and the Jews and it's all convened in that one room. And it's it's just very interesting. And most of the un, I wish I had the percentage. I was trying to find it quickly. But most of the countries in the un, the votes against Israel over the past many, many years have just been incredible. He, they, they hate Israel almost unit unanimously even the Europeans now, and of course many Americans. And so the lone country stands on its own. And Benjamin Netanyahu then, delivered this incredible speech. He's a great orator, he really is. And I just didn't want you to miss it. But I do want you to hear this one part where he, remember, Mayor Mamdani, threatened to have Bibi Netanyahu arrested by an international court. Remember that? Well, when Benjamin Netanyahu took the platform, this is what he said to Mamname. Let's listen.
Benjamin Netanyahu: So to all those, spreading these lies about my country and about our brave soldiers, whether they sit in this hall or in the office of the anti Semitic mayor of NewSong York. I say this. Shame on you. Shame on you for distorting the facts. Shame on you for inverting victim and aggressor. Shame on you for spitting in the face of truth. Mr. Mamdani, since you were elected mayor of this city, many Jews no longer feel safe in NewSong York. They talk to me. They tell me, this isn't the city we remember. It changed so quickly. Now it's no wonder you praise criminals convicted of supporting Hamas. You count as friends people like Hassan Piker, who said America deserved 9 11. America deserved 9 11. Some friends you have. You invite into your home a Palestinian journalist who filled Hamas terrorists beating and torturing Israeli hostages and later admitted that he refused to publish the videos in order to protect. You guessed it, the terrorists. Your wife liked a post praising the October 7 massacre. She liked another post saying Tel Aviv shouldn't exist. You refused to condemn any of that. You falsely repeatedly accused Israel of genocide. Mr. Mamdani, you tried to stop me from coming here. you tried to silence me. Well, you can't silence me. You can't silence the truth.
Sandy Rios: Wow. I mean, talk about courage, really. We are in such a battle for right and wrong, evil and good, and yet some people are in denial about this. But the Israelis are not because they're on the front of the battle. They're attacked all the time. And remember, Hamas just burned their babies. beheaded their men, raped and killed their women. they. They are on the cutting edge of this evil. And I think some of us are still in denial. But today, we're going to listen to the whole speech in just a second. But first. Well, finally we have some good news. Would you like some good news? Over 50,000 babies have been saved and more than 51 commitments to Christ through the ministry PreBorn this year alone has happened, and it's happened because of you. And I have a personal message from Dan Steiner, who's the president of preborn. And this is what he wants to say to you. Because of you, we can invite mothers considering abortion into a preborn network clinic to meet their baby. And when she has that close encounter of the best kind in her WOMB, she is 80% more likely to choose life. So, my friends and listeners of so many years, you can help me make that first encounter possible for the next mom. Across America, Preborn network clinics are putting the gospel into action surrounding moms with hope and love and providing free life saving ultrasounds. Will you join PreBorn and Sandy Rios, 24 7, as we help rescue 50,000 more babies, lives, you know, it's just $28. You can sponsor an ultrasound and help save a baby's life. Just go to preborn.com sandy that's preborn.com sandy. And make your most generous donation. All right. Well, you're going to hear the entire speech of Benjamin Netanyahu. Just about, you know, work in the kitchen, driving your car. just listen at your leisure. But I think these are things that we all need to hear. Heaven knows we hear enough about how horrible Israel is and how what a monster Bibi Netanyahu is, which I believe is absolute. I'll say. Balderdash. Hogwash. Just wicked lies. But you know what? You decide for yourself. He's going to speak at the General Assembly. He did. We're going to listen to it. And here it is on today's edition of Sandy Rios, 24 7, from American Family Radio, Sandy Rios. We are not called to be nice. We are often called to be kind, confrontational. And here with me in D.C. is Fox News contributor Sandy Rios.
Sandy Rios: I think the most important thing we need to demonstrate to our children is genuineness, that we actually believe what we say we believe. Longtime Fox News contributor Sandy Rios. Thanks very much for being with us. Seek justice. Not social justice, but God's justice. What's right and what's wrong. Sandy Rios is with the American Family Association, a pro life radio talk show host.
Sandy Rios: We've got to say, this is the line. Life is sacred. Director of Governmental affairs for the American Family Association. Step up. Speak up. Say something. Do something.
Benjamin Netanyahu: Mr. President, before I begin, just a quick announcement. If there are any other moral cowards who haven't yet left this hall, please do so now. Thank you very much, Ladies and gentlemen. Fourteen years ago, I stood on this podium and I drew a red line. I vowed to prevent Iran's murderous dictatorship from developing atomic bombs, nuclear weapons aimed at destroying Israel. Nuclear weapons that could threaten the entire world. That's exactly what we did. Now, let me say something that might surprise you. Devastating Iran's nuclear facilities was hard. it was very hard to do. But for me, it was one of the easiest decisions I've ever had to make as prime minister. Because if we hadn't done it, we'd all be dead. Now, you want to hear the ultimate irony in defending itself. Israel is also defending many of the countries whose delegates just left this hall. In fact, I want you to know that many of their leaders even thank us privately for taking out Iran's nukes. It's hard to Imagine more mind blowing hypocrisy. But that's exactly what it is. Now, this isn't the first time we are faced with the threat of annihilation. On June 5, 1967, Israel was surrounded by enemies who openly swore to destroy us. We weren't then in Judea Samaria, the heart of the historic homeland of the Jewish people. We weren't in Gaza, we weren't on the Golan heights. Oh, and Mr. M Ashara, you should know, the Jews have been on the Golan Heights since the days of Moses. You can read it in the Bible. No, at that time, on the eve of the Six Day War, 1967, we weren't in any of these places. We were in a tiny sliver of land. We still are. That is equal to about 1/3 of 1% of the landmass of the entire Arab world. Yet they accuse Israel, tiny Israel, of colonialism. Some colonialism. And who's accusing us? Well, among them are people in Britain and in France, for God's sakes, they vetted the term. Their colonies braced the entire globe. Colonialism. Give us a break. Another lie. Yet at the time, on, this tiny patch of earth, no west bank, no Gaza, no Golan Heights, just the very survival of this one and only Jewish state. Because this is what this conflict is about. It's not about territories. It's about the existence of a Jewish state at any boundaries. And yet at the time, right at that time, we were threatened with annihilation by three Arab armies that were about to invade us. You know what Israelis were doing at the time? They were digging mass graves in preparation for the thousands and thousands of, of casualties. In preparation to bury our dead. At the time, I was, an Israeli high school student in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Five days before the war broke out, I flew back to Israel. I found a country in total blackout. Israel braced for impact. I flew back to see my brother, Jonathan Yonatan Yoni. He was a 21 year old paratroop officer. And like, the rest of the army, his unit was already mobilized. I went to find him. I was told the paratroops are encamped in the orchards, the orange groves around Ramleh. So I went there and I asked some soldiers, do you know where Yoni Netanyahu is? Nope. Nope. Then one guy said, oh, you mean the young guy? Yeah, he's in the next grove. So I went there and suddenly at the end of a long row of trees, I saw my brother. He was absolutely shocked to see me. Bibi said, bibi what are you doing here? We ran. We hugged each other. And over a cup of. A cup of makeshift military coffee, I asked him the question that was on my mind. The question that was on everybody's mind. So, Yoni, I said, what's going to happen? He paused. And then he said something I'll never forget. We're going to win, he said. We have no other choice. I remember those words as if it was yesterday. We're going to win. We have no other choice. M. And when we did, nine years later, Palestinian terrorists hijacked a passenger airplane headed for Israel. They took it to Entebbe, Uganda. Like the Nazis, the terrorists selected the Jewish passengers. Men, women, women, children, babies. They threatened to kill them all if Israel did not release Palestinian terrorists. And then, on July 4, 1960. Sorry, on July 4, 1976, the bicentennial of the United States. In one of the most dramatic rescue missions in modern times, Yoni led his brave soldiers to the heart of Africa. Miraculously, they rescued 103 Jewish hostages and brought them all home. Every single one of them. My brother, the commander of the Storming Party, was the only soldier killed in this mission. I want to thank Uganda again for recently erecting a statue of Yoni in the place where he fell. My friends, Yoni's words are as true today as they were more than half a century ago. We're going to win. We have no other choice. At no time was this demonstrated more clearly than on October 7, 2023, the darkest day in Israel's history. On, that horrific day, thousands of Palestinians terrorists stormed into Israel from Gaza. Now, I want you to know there wasn't a single Israeli then in Gaza. Not a civilian, not a soldier, not one. But it didn't matter one bit. The Hamas terrorists committed the worst slaughter of Jews since the Holocaust. They went house to house shooting Israeli civilians point blank. They did so with fiendish glee, with sadistic joy. They live streamed as they murdered. And who did they murder? The very Israelis. Their neighbors who gave them jobs, who picked up Palestinian children at the Gaza border and drove them to Israeli hospitals for cancer treatment and then brought them back. Can you imagine such monstrosity? These Hamas monsters? They slaughtered Holocaust survivors. They burned babies alive in front of their parents. They beheaded our men. They brutally raped our women. And then they murdered them. Altogether, they slaughtered 1200 Israelis that day. I want to give you an idea of what this means for a country of 10 million. Proportionally, this is equal to 40,000 innocent Americans slaughtered in less than 24 hours. That's 16 times 9. 11. 16. 9 11s. That occurred not very far from here on that darkest of days. Our enemies expected us to collapse. Well, we didn't collapse. Instead, we rose and fought like lions. For the past, three years, our heroic soldiers have fought day in and day out in a seven front war. Do you know any other country the size of NewSong Jersey capable of fighting a seven front war? And for three years, seven fronts. Hamas, Hezbollah, the Houthis, Iran, militias in Iraq, militias in Syria, Palestinian terrorists in Judea, Samaria. They all ganged up on us to wipe us off the face of the earth. They failed because instead of collapsing, we delivered crippling blows to all of them. With our great American friends, we crushed Iran's army, navy, air force and nuclear facilities. Israel hammered Hamas. We pummeled Hezbollah. You remember the beepers? Remember these things? Remember them? Well, I can tell you this. Hezbollah certainly remembers them. Guess what happened to the bulk of the Hezbollah's vast arsenal of 150,000 ballistic missiles and rockets, all aimed at our civilians. They're gone. Hezbollah's leaders, dead. Their spirit broken. The arch terrorists, the worst mass murderers on earth. Not only killing Israelis, killing Americans, killing Brits, killing citizens of hundreds, dozens of countries. Khamenei, Death, Sinwar, Haniya, Nasrallah, and thousands of other terrorists who sought to destroy us. They're all gone too. The remaining terrorists are desperately trying to regroup. Every day they try to murder our people. And in particular, they try to murder our people in our historic homeland, in Judea. By the way, that's where the word Jew comes from. Judea, that's our land. They try to murder us? Thousands of attempts per year on families. Peaceful families driving along the roads. They shoot at pregnant women. They shoot entire families. Of course, none of this is covered in the international press or in the social media. None of it. None of it. What they cover is a handful of young juvenile delinquents, about 150 in number, who go or throw stones, who, chop down olive trees. Occasionally they do. They fire up, they lit some fires. I can't stand that. I won't stand for vigilantism. We're a country of law, so we put our shin bet on them. But that's what they call settler violence. And the number of casualties a year, maybe two, three in the total time that this is being discussed. Maybe two or three dead compared to the thousands of terrorist attacks against the peaceful settlers. Honorable people, law abiding people. What a distortion. It's an Obsession. I hear this discussion here. I mean, leaders of countries seriously talk about that. And they say it with such importance, we can't stand settler violence. You don't know what you're talking about. And listen. Two days ago, Two days ago. Two days ago. I say this to my colleague, Emmanuel Macron. Two days, three days ago, a French citizen, Nathaniel Shukron, a father of six, was gunned down when he visited a spring with his 16 year old son. And a Hamas terrorist in Judea Samaria comes and fires point blank at him in the last words he uttered, flee. Flee, son. Save yourself. That was three days ago. Two days ago, in Judea Samaria, a reserve officer, a reserve soldier, Narya lighter, was mowed down by a drive down terrorist, Palestinian terrorist. He's fighting for his life now in a Jerusalem hospital. I visited the family right before I boarded the plane to come here. Narya, a father of four, is the son of Yechiel Leiter, our brilliant ambassador to the United States. Three years ago, Yechiel's oldest son, Moshe, a father of six, was killed while clearing a booby trap building in Gaza. Yechiel, my brother, your pain is immeasurable. The entire people of Israel and many outside of Israel are praying for Narya's life. But despite the pain, despite the agony, we do not give in. In a recent post before he was attacked, Neriya wrote this. Listen to this. We have no other country. It's a privilege to defend it. To Narya and to all the heroes of Israel, I pledge a, sacred vow. Your sacrifice will not be in vain. We will continue to defend our state. We will continue to win, because we have no other choice. In this battle against the barbarians. We've had no greater partner than President Trump. I thank him. I thank him for his bold leadership. He boldly confronted an enormous danger to America, Israel and the world decades ago. He understood that if left unchallenged, the fanatic Ayatollahs, who chant, death to America, Death to Israel, would eventually carry out their mad fantasies. So Israel and America acted together not only to protect ourselves, but to save civilization. Brave American pilots alongside, brave Israeli pilots, flew joint missions on over the skies of Iran. America and Israel also worked together to bring back our, remaining hostages. We brought back every last one of them. You ask, why are we winning? Well, Yoni said it. We have no other choice. And throughout this long war, our goal never wavered. To win. To win with unwavering resolve. To win with unrelenting courage. Because this is Israel. One Nation fighting for one future, left and right, young and old, religious and secular. Do we have our differences? Of course we do. Who doesn't? But in critical moments, those moments that shape our destiny, we stand together because what unites us is so much stronger. Our history, our values, our courage. The courage. The courage of our brave people who withstood 1000 massive ballistic missiles that Iran rained down on our cities, on our civilians. Ladies and gentlemen, you're sitting here in the General assembly hall of the un. Do you know what one one ton, just one one ton ballistic missile would do if it hit this place? It would obliterate the entire compound. In fact, two such missiles would obliterate the UN. So you can imagine, think about, 1,000 gigantic missiles falling from the skies on your cities, on your homes. I salute the courage of the people of Israel. I salute the courage of our, brave soldiers. Jews, Christians, Druze, Muslim. The most moral army in the world, the idf.
Sandy Rios: You know, that's actually true. I, I think I've told you. By the way, Sandy Rios with you. You're listening to Benjamin Netanyahu address the UN National Assembly. and it was pretty stunning stuff. And by the way, over half, maybe two thirds of the assembly had left when he spoke. But I want you to hear what he has to say. Remember that Israel's a tiny little place. At its narrowest, it's only like 11 miles wide. And then it expands. It's like, I think of a balloon, a little bit like spring squeezed in the middle, but it's small. And so they have endured so much. What other nation, what other nation has endured this? Maybe the people of Iran are enduring this from the mullahs, but nothing like what he's just describing. So, and yet they. Do you hear about this? Do you hear their side of the story? You don't. You hear so much anti Semitism now. And it's being paid for, as I think Netanyahu either just described or will describe in the next clips by other countries. It's, massive propaganda and he is setting the record straight. So, in this next segment, he talks about the enemies of Iran. Let's listen.
Benjamin Netanyahu: For three years, our brave soldiers have been valiantly fighting a sevenfold war. But there is an eighth front to this war. It's the war for truth. It is waged in the world's media and most perniciously, in social media. Several foreign countries have spent untold billions to spread lies about my country. The first to do so was Qatar decades ago. It started Massively funding American universities and toxic media outlets like Al Jazeera. They did the same in Europe, by the way, and their goal was brainwash young minds to hate Israel, hate America, hate the West. This is the same Qatar that hosts the hamas butchers of October 7th. Now, the latest country to become a super spreader of anti Semitic lies is Turkey, Erdogan. Erdogan is a tyrant. He also hosts the Hamas terror chiefs. He has murdered thousands of Kurdish civilians. He denies the Armenian genocide. He jails journalists and opposition leaders. In fact, I think he holds the world's record on this, and that's a tough call, but I think he's number one. He illegally occupies Northern Cyprus, an EU member, and he regularly transgresses against Greece, a NATO member. Now he wants to take over Syria. Well, that's not surprising, because he calls for Israel's destruction almost every single day. He says he's going to be the ruler of Jerusalem. No, sir, you won't. This is our country, our city, our eternal capital. Tyrants the world over seek to threaten us. They seek to undermine, ah, our resolve with their campaign of lies. But ultimately, as on the military battlefield, the Jewish people will prevail. It will take time. It will take time to vanquish the lies. it will take time for the world to acknowledge what is so plain. To see that Hamas used Palestinian civilians as human shields. That it used hospitals, schools, mosques as terrorist command posts, that is, stole much of the food we let into Gaza. And while Hamas did everything possible to keep Palestinian civilians in harm's way, often at gunpoint, Israel did everything possible to get them out of harm's way. We sent millions of text messages warning civilians to leave combat areas. We made millions of phone calls. We dropped millions of leaflets. I want to ask you some questions. What genocidal regime gives a million polio vaccinations to the enemy's population? What genocidal regime enables the distribution of 2 million tons of food into Gaza? That's a ton for every person. Accusing Israel of genocide is the greatest lie of the century. If you want to know how big a lie, if you want to know how absurd it is, listen to Colonel Jon Spencer. He's head of Urban Warfare Studies at West Point. He's considered one of the world's, or perhaps the world's foremost expert on urban warfare. I think he's with us today. Colonel Spencer. Colonel Spencer has studied every urban war from antiquity to modern times, from ancient Greece to Mosul to Gaza. And here's what Colonel Spencer, Israel has done More to prevent civilian casualties in war than any other military in history. In history, We've taken innumerable steps to protect the civilian population. Is this genocide? Of course not. It's the opposite of genocide. So to all those spreading these lies about my country and about our brave soldiers, whether they sit in this hall or in the office of the anti Semitic mayor of NewSong York, I say, shame on you. Shame on you for distorting the facts. Shame on you for inverting victim and aggressor. Shame on you for spitting in the face of truth. Mr. Mamdani, since you were elected mayor of this city, many Jews no longer feel safe in NewSong York. They talk to me. They tell me this isn't the city we remember. It changed so quickly. Now, it's no wonder you praise criminals convicted of supporting Hamas. You count as friends people like Hassan Piker, who said America deserved 9 11. America deserved 9 11. Some friends you have. You invite into your home a Palestinian journalist who filled Hamas terrorists beating and torturing Israeli hostages and later admitted that he refused to publish the videos in order to protect. You guessed it. The terrorists. Your wife liked a post praising the October 7 massacre. She liked another post saying Tel Aviv shouldn't exist. You refused to condemn any of that. You falsely, repeatedly accuse Israel of genocide. Mr. Mamdani. You tried to stop me from coming here. You tried to silence me. Well, you can't silence me. You can't silence the truth. And here is the simple truth. Here's a simple truth. Israel didn't commit genocide. Israel prevented genocide. And that's exactly. That's exactly what Mr. Mamdani's Hamas buddies would have done to us had we not stopped them. They would have killed every last one of us. The lies you and other anti Semites spread about the Jews and the Jewish state have real consequences. In NewSong York, Jews are threatened on the way to synagogue. Jews have been stabbed in the streets. Jews are demonized. They're targeted simply for being Jews. Jews have been murdered in Sydney, Manchester, Montreal, Boulder, Colorado. They've been attacked in Los Angeles, London, Paris, Berlin, Washington, D.C. the anti Semites of the world want to terrify our people. I have news for them. The days when Jews were defenseless victims marched to the slaughter. Those days are over. Today we have a state. Today we have an army. Today we have a, people ready and willing to defend ourselves. So today, today, I have one message for Jews around the world. Raise your head high. Be proud. Be confident. Don't be intimidated. Stand up. And for everyone else, everyone else who wants to defend truth and justice? Join us in standing up to the barbarians who threaten our common civilization. But I have to be candid with you. Not everyone is standing up. We saw that. Because unlike Israel, there are some, and most recently especially in Western Europe, who have chosen not to stand up. The leaders of these countries have chosen to succumb to the anti Semitic mobs. They have chosen weakness. They have chosen appeasement. We cannot evade the sad truth before us. Many in the free world are afraid to defend freedom. And I ask them, what will this future? What will this behavior, what will the world hold for you? The Brotherhood of Democracies or the Muslim Brotherhood? How long will it take for you to see that these fanatic geodists are choking your waterways, your energy supply, your economic lifeline? I can assure you, ladies and gentlemen, we in Israel, we do not wait for others to wake up from their moral slumber. We forge ahead. We seize the future. We pioneer incredible developments in health, agriculture, artificial intelligence, superior intelligence. And we bring these amazing innovations to all of humanity. So Israel has never been stronger. We are not afraid. But I'll tell you who is afraid. The tyrants of Tehran, that's who. And you know what they're most afraid of? Their own people. The brave Iranian people who have sacrificed so much for so long. The Iranian regime is especially afraid when their people have this. When their people have this. This is a communications device, Starlink, that allows people to access truth, to exercise choice, to exercise freedom of thought and freedom of speech. That's why the Iranian regime spills, rather spends millions and billions of dollars censoring the Internet. Mr. President, I'm going to leave this device with you so you can give it to the Iranian delegation. So when they inevitably defect, they too will be able to freely tell their story on social media. To the protesters outside, to the hypocritical delegates who left us all, I ask, where were you when the Iranian tyrants butchered and maimed tens of thousands of unarmed Iranian civilians? When they butchered and maimed thousands of their own people? Where were you? Did you organize mass rallies? Hunger strikes? Did you protest outside the Iranian mission to the un? Did you speak out, for that matter, for Christians persecuted in Iran and throughout the Middle East? No. No, you didn't do that because you're phony human rights protesters and Christians. You know that their numbers are plummeting everywhere in the Middle east where they're being persecuted and hounded, except one place. My country, Israel, where the Christian community is growing, thriving, succeeding. In fact, you didn't protest when we left Bethlehem, it was controlled by us. It was 80 to 90% Christian. And we gave it to the Palestinian Authority. And today it's 80 to 90% Muslim. Everyone. The Christians were shoved out. Did you protest that? Did you speak about that? Nothing. Nada. And you said nothing about Iran. Just now, you said nothing about Iran. But I want to give you the good news. Despite your silence, despite your hypocrisy, it's only a matter of time that in Iran something incredible will happen. The power of the people will overcome the people in power. I want you to listen to my words carefully. One day, and it may not be far away, the Iranian people will be free. Their murderous regime will be toppled by its lies, by its corruption, by its cruelty. This evil regime will fall. And we will all celebrate that day. Ladies and gentlemen, the story of my people, the Jewish people, goes back over 3,000 years. We speak the same language. We speak the same language today that we spoke then. We live in the same land which our ancestors lived then. David, Solomon, Isaiah, Jeremiah. That's our land. The land of Israel. Our prophets, our purpose and our people are unique in history. Our values have inspired humanity for millennia. The belief in one God, the sanctity of life, the rule of law, our eternal quest for peace, our eternal quest for justice. It is these sacred values that propelled us throughout the ages. It is these values that helped us beat the odds of history. The great American writer, Mark Twain said it best 125 years ago. He said it well before the rebirth of the modern Jewish state, well before the great victories of Israel's soldiers. Here's what he said. the Jew has made a marvelous fight in this world, in all the ages, and he has done it with his hands tied behind his back. The Egyptian, the Babylonian, and the Persian rose, filled the planet with sound and splendor, then faded to dream stuff and passed away. Other peoples have sprung up and held their torch high for a time, but it burned out. And they sit in twilight. The Jews saw them all, beat them all, and is now what he always was, exhibiting no decadence, no infirmities of age, no weakening of his spirits, no slowing of his energies. Ladies and gentlemen, over the centuries, the tyrannies that tried to destroy us failed time and again. And God willing, they'll continue to fail. If we muster our courage, if we steel our resolve, we will continue to win. As the Bible says. the eternity of Israel will not falter. And the reason is simple. We have no other choice. Thank you all. Thank you.
Sandy Rios: Well, that might be the most applause Netanyahu or any other Israeli leader, leader has ever received. And that was by, you know, maybe a fourth of the or a third of the assembly. Pretty amazing, Amazing speech. And I think it stay, it will stay with all of us. It's really true. Even for us in America right now getting ready for this midterm. I hope you understand what's at stake. I hope you comprehend that if we don't get out and vote and vote for the right people, and they may not be your favorite people, but hopefully they're not communist, Marxists, destroyers, crazy, immoral people who want to bend the morality on genders. Whether it's the candidate, for Senate in Texas. It's just we are living in strange times. Times where you would think that no one would vote for the people that we're seeing. And yet, because if you're a conservative, especially if you're a Christian, if you don't vote, I guarantee you they will win. Not voting is not a sign of virtue at this point. It isn't. It isn't. You're going to have to check the box for people that you might not prefer. And some of you have an option of really good candidates and that's great, but it isn't always possible in politics. So I'm telling you that we have to win. We must win this election. Everything will be undone. You worry about gas prices right now. I've told you those gas prices are going to fly up like crazy if, if the the conservatives don't win in the House and the Senate, if the other side takes over, everything will be lost. The borders will be open. You just can't even imagine. And I'm just begging you to please just. The battle cry is we have no other choice. We must win this election. We have no other choice. And that's my plea to you. Well, before I say goodbye to you, I want to remind you that PreBorn is our sponsor. And you know, if you're a business partner or someone who has an enterprise, would you consider a larger donation to claim a write off for a gift to PreBorn? A donation of 1,000, 2,000, 10,000 or $15,000 will sponsor an ultrasound machine for a needy clinic. That would be pretty satisfying, I would think. And of course you'd be helping to save countless babies lives for years to come. And all the gifts are tax deductible and will and will reach eternity. They will do that. God knows everything we give and everything. We don't, doesn't he? So I ask you to do that. Just go to preborn.com sandy preborn.com sandy and make your most generous donation. Well, thank you much, so, so much for listening to today's edition of Sandy Rios 24 7.
Sandy Rios: Well, hi, this is Sandy rios on Sandy Rios 24 7. Well, last week or recently, the 81st session of the United Nations General assembly convened in NewSong York City. You may remember that I was there just right before it convened and gave you a bit of a report with Jim Garlow. but two of the most important leaders in the world spoke at that meeting. And it's my intention this week to let you hear what they had to say. You know, I always tell you that, that I don't think you're hearing most of you unless you really work at it. You're not really hearing everything. There's a lot of stuff you don't hear that you need to know about. And even if you did watch these speeches, I think it will benefit you to listen. I've listened like about two or three times now and I've learned something every time. So those two speakers are Benjamin Netanyahu and Donald J. Trump. And they knocked it out of the ballpark, both of them. But I wanted to set it up because, when Benjamin Netanyahu came up to the platform, at least half if not two thirds of the assembly left the building. And this is what it sounded like. Ram m. Order in the hall, please. Order in the hall, please. I request an order in the hall, please. I request an order in the hall, please.
Sandy Rios: All right, so that's how it sounded. And of course that, that's the Arabic yellow. I mean it's really battle, it's full out war between the Muslims and the Jews and it's all convened in that one room. And it's it's just very interesting. And most of the un, I wish I had the percentage. I was trying to find it quickly. But most of the countries in the un, the votes against Israel over the past many, many years have just been incredible. He, they, they hate Israel almost unit unanimously even the Europeans now, and of course many Americans. And so the lone country stands on its own. And Benjamin Netanyahu then, delivered this incredible speech. He's a great orator, he really is. And I just didn't want you to miss it. But I do want you to hear this one part where he, remember, Mayor Mamdani, threatened to have Bibi Netanyahu arrested by an international court. Remember that? Well, when Benjamin Netanyahu took the platform, this is what he said to Mamname. Let's listen.
Benjamin Netanyahu: So to all those, spreading these lies about my country and about our brave soldiers, whether they sit in this hall or in the office of the anti Semitic mayor of NewSong York. I say this. Shame on you. Shame on you for distorting the facts. Shame on you for inverting victim and aggressor. Shame on you for spitting in the face of truth. Mr. Mamdani, since you were elected mayor of this city, many Jews no longer feel safe in NewSong York. They talk to me. They tell me, this isn't the city we remember. It changed so quickly. Now it's no wonder you praise criminals convicted of supporting Hamas. You count as friends people like Hassan Piker, who said America deserved 9 11. America deserved 9 11. Some friends you have. You invite into your home a Palestinian journalist who filled Hamas terrorists beating and torturing Israeli hostages and later admitted that he refused to publish the videos in order to protect. You guessed it, the terrorists. Your wife liked a post praising the October 7 massacre. She liked another post saying Tel Aviv shouldn't exist. You refused to condemn any of that. You falsely repeatedly accused Israel of genocide. Mr. Mamdani, you tried to stop me from coming here. you tried to silence me. Well, you can't silence me. You can't silence the truth.
Sandy Rios: Wow. I mean, talk about courage, really. We are in such a battle for right and wrong, evil and good, and yet some people are in denial about this. But the Israelis are not because they're on the front of the battle. They're attacked all the time. And remember, Hamas just burned their babies. beheaded their men, raped and killed their women. they. They are on the cutting edge of this evil. And I think some of us are still in denial. But today, we're going to listen to the whole speech in just a second. But first. Well, finally we have some good news. Would you like some good news? Over 50,000 babies have been saved and more than 51 commitments to Christ through the ministry PreBorn this year alone has happened, and it's happened because of you. And I have a personal message from Dan Steiner, who's the president of preborn. And this is what he wants to say to you. Because of you, we can invite mothers considering abortion into a preborn network clinic to meet their baby. And when she has that close encounter of the best kind in her WOMB, she is 80% more likely to choose life. So, my friends and listeners of so many years, you can help me make that first encounter possible for the next mom. Across America, Preborn network clinics are putting the gospel into action surrounding moms with hope and love and providing free life saving ultrasounds. Will you join PreBorn and Sandy Rios, 24 7, as we help rescue 50,000 more babies, lives, you know, it's just $28. You can sponsor an ultrasound and help save a baby's life. Just go to preborn.com sandy that's preborn.com sandy. And make your most generous donation. All right. Well, you're going to hear the entire speech of Benjamin Netanyahu. Just about, you know, work in the kitchen, driving your car. just listen at your leisure. But I think these are things that we all need to hear. Heaven knows we hear enough about how horrible Israel is and how what a monster Bibi Netanyahu is, which I believe is absolute. I'll say. Balderdash. Hogwash. Just wicked lies. But you know what? You decide for yourself. He's going to speak at the General Assembly. He did. We're going to listen to it. And here it is on today's edition of Sandy Rios, 24 7, from American Family Radio, Sandy Rios. We are not called to be nice. We are often called to be kind, confrontational. And here with me in D.C. is Fox News contributor Sandy Rios.
Sandy Rios: I think the most important thing we need to demonstrate to our children is genuineness, that we actually believe what we say we believe. Longtime Fox News contributor Sandy Rios. Thanks very much for being with us. Seek justice. Not social justice, but God's justice. What's right and what's wrong. Sandy Rios is with the American Family Association, a pro life radio talk show host.
Sandy Rios: We've got to say, this is the line. Life is sacred. Director of Governmental affairs for the American Family Association. Step up. Speak up. Say something. Do something.
Benjamin Netanyahu: Mr. President, before I begin, just a quick announcement. If there are any other moral cowards who haven't yet left this hall, please do so now. Thank you very much, Ladies and gentlemen. Fourteen years ago, I stood on this podium and I drew a red line. I vowed to prevent Iran's murderous dictatorship from developing atomic bombs, nuclear weapons aimed at destroying Israel. Nuclear weapons that could threaten the entire world. That's exactly what we did. Now, let me say something that might surprise you. Devastating Iran's nuclear facilities was hard. it was very hard to do. But for me, it was one of the easiest decisions I've ever had to make as prime minister. Because if we hadn't done it, we'd all be dead. Now, you want to hear the ultimate irony in defending itself. Israel is also defending many of the countries whose delegates just left this hall. In fact, I want you to know that many of their leaders even thank us privately for taking out Iran's nukes. It's hard to Imagine more mind blowing hypocrisy. But that's exactly what it is. Now, this isn't the first time we are faced with the threat of annihilation. On June 5, 1967, Israel was surrounded by enemies who openly swore to destroy us. We weren't then in Judea Samaria, the heart of the historic homeland of the Jewish people. We weren't in Gaza, we weren't on the Golan heights. Oh, and Mr. M Ashara, you should know, the Jews have been on the Golan Heights since the days of Moses. You can read it in the Bible. No, at that time, on the eve of the Six Day War, 1967, we weren't in any of these places. We were in a tiny sliver of land. We still are. That is equal to about 1/3 of 1% of the landmass of the entire Arab world. Yet they accuse Israel, tiny Israel, of colonialism. Some colonialism. And who's accusing us? Well, among them are people in Britain and in France, for God's sakes, they vetted the term. Their colonies braced the entire globe. Colonialism. Give us a break. Another lie. Yet at the time, on, this tiny patch of earth, no west bank, no Gaza, no Golan Heights, just the very survival of this one and only Jewish state. Because this is what this conflict is about. It's not about territories. It's about the existence of a Jewish state at any boundaries. And yet at the time, right at that time, we were threatened with annihilation by three Arab armies that were about to invade us. You know what Israelis were doing at the time? They were digging mass graves in preparation for the thousands and thousands of, of casualties. In preparation to bury our dead. At the time, I was, an Israeli high school student in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Five days before the war broke out, I flew back to Israel. I found a country in total blackout. Israel braced for impact. I flew back to see my brother, Jonathan Yonatan Yoni. He was a 21 year old paratroop officer. And like, the rest of the army, his unit was already mobilized. I went to find him. I was told the paratroops are encamped in the orchards, the orange groves around Ramleh. So I went there and I asked some soldiers, do you know where Yoni Netanyahu is? Nope. Nope. Then one guy said, oh, you mean the young guy? Yeah, he's in the next grove. So I went there and suddenly at the end of a long row of trees, I saw my brother. He was absolutely shocked to see me. Bibi said, bibi what are you doing here? We ran. We hugged each other. And over a cup of. A cup of makeshift military coffee, I asked him the question that was on my mind. The question that was on everybody's mind. So, Yoni, I said, what's going to happen? He paused. And then he said something I'll never forget. We're going to win, he said. We have no other choice. I remember those words as if it was yesterday. We're going to win. We have no other choice. M. And when we did, nine years later, Palestinian terrorists hijacked a passenger airplane headed for Israel. They took it to Entebbe, Uganda. Like the Nazis, the terrorists selected the Jewish passengers. Men, women, women, children, babies. They threatened to kill them all if Israel did not release Palestinian terrorists. And then, on July 4, 1960. Sorry, on July 4, 1976, the bicentennial of the United States. In one of the most dramatic rescue missions in modern times, Yoni led his brave soldiers to the heart of Africa. Miraculously, they rescued 103 Jewish hostages and brought them all home. Every single one of them. My brother, the commander of the Storming Party, was the only soldier killed in this mission. I want to thank Uganda again for recently erecting a statue of Yoni in the place where he fell. My friends, Yoni's words are as true today as they were more than half a century ago. We're going to win. We have no other choice. At no time was this demonstrated more clearly than on October 7, 2023, the darkest day in Israel's history. On, that horrific day, thousands of Palestinians terrorists stormed into Israel from Gaza. Now, I want you to know there wasn't a single Israeli then in Gaza. Not a civilian, not a soldier, not one. But it didn't matter one bit. The Hamas terrorists committed the worst slaughter of Jews since the Holocaust. They went house to house shooting Israeli civilians point blank. They did so with fiendish glee, with sadistic joy. They live streamed as they murdered. And who did they murder? The very Israelis. Their neighbors who gave them jobs, who picked up Palestinian children at the Gaza border and drove them to Israeli hospitals for cancer treatment and then brought them back. Can you imagine such monstrosity? These Hamas monsters? They slaughtered Holocaust survivors. They burned babies alive in front of their parents. They beheaded our men. They brutally raped our women. And then they murdered them. Altogether, they slaughtered 1200 Israelis that day. I want to give you an idea of what this means for a country of 10 million. Proportionally, this is equal to 40,000 innocent Americans slaughtered in less than 24 hours. That's 16 times 9. 11. 16. 9 11s. That occurred not very far from here on that darkest of days. Our enemies expected us to collapse. Well, we didn't collapse. Instead, we rose and fought like lions. For the past, three years, our heroic soldiers have fought day in and day out in a seven front war. Do you know any other country the size of NewSong Jersey capable of fighting a seven front war? And for three years, seven fronts. Hamas, Hezbollah, the Houthis, Iran, militias in Iraq, militias in Syria, Palestinian terrorists in Judea, Samaria. They all ganged up on us to wipe us off the face of the earth. They failed because instead of collapsing, we delivered crippling blows to all of them. With our great American friends, we crushed Iran's army, navy, air force and nuclear facilities. Israel hammered Hamas. We pummeled Hezbollah. You remember the beepers? Remember these things? Remember them? Well, I can tell you this. Hezbollah certainly remembers them. Guess what happened to the bulk of the Hezbollah's vast arsenal of 150,000 ballistic missiles and rockets, all aimed at our civilians. They're gone. Hezbollah's leaders, dead. Their spirit broken. The arch terrorists, the worst mass murderers on earth. Not only killing Israelis, killing Americans, killing Brits, killing citizens of hundreds, dozens of countries. Khamenei, Death, Sinwar, Haniya, Nasrallah, and thousands of other terrorists who sought to destroy us. They're all gone too. The remaining terrorists are desperately trying to regroup. Every day they try to murder our people. And in particular, they try to murder our people in our historic homeland, in Judea. By the way, that's where the word Jew comes from. Judea, that's our land. They try to murder us? Thousands of attempts per year on families. Peaceful families driving along the roads. They shoot at pregnant women. They shoot entire families. Of course, none of this is covered in the international press or in the social media. None of it. None of it. What they cover is a handful of young juvenile delinquents, about 150 in number, who go or throw stones, who, chop down olive trees. Occasionally they do. They fire up, they lit some fires. I can't stand that. I won't stand for vigilantism. We're a country of law, so we put our shin bet on them. But that's what they call settler violence. And the number of casualties a year, maybe two, three in the total time that this is being discussed. Maybe two or three dead compared to the thousands of terrorist attacks against the peaceful settlers. Honorable people, law abiding people. What a distortion. It's an Obsession. I hear this discussion here. I mean, leaders of countries seriously talk about that. And they say it with such importance, we can't stand settler violence. You don't know what you're talking about. And listen. Two days ago, Two days ago. Two days ago. I say this to my colleague, Emmanuel Macron. Two days, three days ago, a French citizen, Nathaniel Shukron, a father of six, was gunned down when he visited a spring with his 16 year old son. And a Hamas terrorist in Judea Samaria comes and fires point blank at him in the last words he uttered, flee. Flee, son. Save yourself. That was three days ago. Two days ago, in Judea Samaria, a reserve officer, a reserve soldier, Narya lighter, was mowed down by a drive down terrorist, Palestinian terrorist. He's fighting for his life now in a Jerusalem hospital. I visited the family right before I boarded the plane to come here. Narya, a father of four, is the son of Yechiel Leiter, our brilliant ambassador to the United States. Three years ago, Yechiel's oldest son, Moshe, a father of six, was killed while clearing a booby trap building in Gaza. Yechiel, my brother, your pain is immeasurable. The entire people of Israel and many outside of Israel are praying for Narya's life. But despite the pain, despite the agony, we do not give in. In a recent post before he was attacked, Neriya wrote this. Listen to this. We have no other country. It's a privilege to defend it. To Narya and to all the heroes of Israel, I pledge a, sacred vow. Your sacrifice will not be in vain. We will continue to defend our state. We will continue to win, because we have no other choice. In this battle against the barbarians. We've had no greater partner than President Trump. I thank him. I thank him for his bold leadership. He boldly confronted an enormous danger to America, Israel and the world decades ago. He understood that if left unchallenged, the fanatic Ayatollahs, who chant, death to America, Death to Israel, would eventually carry out their mad fantasies. So Israel and America acted together not only to protect ourselves, but to save civilization. Brave American pilots alongside, brave Israeli pilots, flew joint missions on over the skies of Iran. America and Israel also worked together to bring back our, remaining hostages. We brought back every last one of them. You ask, why are we winning? Well, Yoni said it. We have no other choice. And throughout this long war, our goal never wavered. To win. To win with unwavering resolve. To win with unrelenting courage. Because this is Israel. One Nation fighting for one future, left and right, young and old, religious and secular. Do we have our differences? Of course we do. Who doesn't? But in critical moments, those moments that shape our destiny, we stand together because what unites us is so much stronger. Our history, our values, our courage. The courage. The courage of our brave people who withstood 1000 massive ballistic missiles that Iran rained down on our cities, on our civilians. Ladies and gentlemen, you're sitting here in the General assembly hall of the un. Do you know what one one ton, just one one ton ballistic missile would do if it hit this place? It would obliterate the entire compound. In fact, two such missiles would obliterate the UN. So you can imagine, think about, 1,000 gigantic missiles falling from the skies on your cities, on your homes. I salute the courage of the people of Israel. I salute the courage of our, brave soldiers. Jews, Christians, Druze, Muslim. The most moral army in the world, the idf.
Sandy Rios: You know, that's actually true. I, I think I've told you. By the way, Sandy Rios with you. You're listening to Benjamin Netanyahu address the UN National Assembly. and it was pretty stunning stuff. And by the way, over half, maybe two thirds of the assembly had left when he spoke. But I want you to hear what he has to say. Remember that Israel's a tiny little place. At its narrowest, it's only like 11 miles wide. And then it expands. It's like, I think of a balloon, a little bit like spring squeezed in the middle, but it's small. And so they have endured so much. What other nation, what other nation has endured this? Maybe the people of Iran are enduring this from the mullahs, but nothing like what he's just describing. So, and yet they. Do you hear about this? Do you hear their side of the story? You don't. You hear so much anti Semitism now. And it's being paid for, as I think Netanyahu either just described or will describe in the next clips by other countries. It's, massive propaganda and he is setting the record straight. So, in this next segment, he talks about the enemies of Iran. Let's listen.
Benjamin Netanyahu: For three years, our brave soldiers have been valiantly fighting a sevenfold war. But there is an eighth front to this war. It's the war for truth. It is waged in the world's media and most perniciously, in social media. Several foreign countries have spent untold billions to spread lies about my country. The first to do so was Qatar decades ago. It started Massively funding American universities and toxic media outlets like Al Jazeera. They did the same in Europe, by the way, and their goal was brainwash young minds to hate Israel, hate America, hate the West. This is the same Qatar that hosts the hamas butchers of October 7th. Now, the latest country to become a super spreader of anti Semitic lies is Turkey, Erdogan. Erdogan is a tyrant. He also hosts the Hamas terror chiefs. He has murdered thousands of Kurdish civilians. He denies the Armenian genocide. He jails journalists and opposition leaders. In fact, I think he holds the world's record on this, and that's a tough call, but I think he's number one. He illegally occupies Northern Cyprus, an EU member, and he regularly transgresses against Greece, a NATO member. Now he wants to take over Syria. Well, that's not surprising, because he calls for Israel's destruction almost every single day. He says he's going to be the ruler of Jerusalem. No, sir, you won't. This is our country, our city, our eternal capital. Tyrants the world over seek to threaten us. They seek to undermine, ah, our resolve with their campaign of lies. But ultimately, as on the military battlefield, the Jewish people will prevail. It will take time. It will take time to vanquish the lies. it will take time for the world to acknowledge what is so plain. To see that Hamas used Palestinian civilians as human shields. That it used hospitals, schools, mosques as terrorist command posts, that is, stole much of the food we let into Gaza. And while Hamas did everything possible to keep Palestinian civilians in harm's way, often at gunpoint, Israel did everything possible to get them out of harm's way. We sent millions of text messages warning civilians to leave combat areas. We made millions of phone calls. We dropped millions of leaflets. I want to ask you some questions. What genocidal regime gives a million polio vaccinations to the enemy's population? What genocidal regime enables the distribution of 2 million tons of food into Gaza? That's a ton for every person. Accusing Israel of genocide is the greatest lie of the century. If you want to know how big a lie, if you want to know how absurd it is, listen to Colonel Jon Spencer. He's head of Urban Warfare Studies at West Point. He's considered one of the world's, or perhaps the world's foremost expert on urban warfare. I think he's with us today. Colonel Spencer. Colonel Spencer has studied every urban war from antiquity to modern times, from ancient Greece to Mosul to Gaza. And here's what Colonel Spencer, Israel has done More to prevent civilian casualties in war than any other military in history. In history, We've taken innumerable steps to protect the civilian population. Is this genocide? Of course not. It's the opposite of genocide. So to all those spreading these lies about my country and about our brave soldiers, whether they sit in this hall or in the office of the anti Semitic mayor of NewSong York, I say, shame on you. Shame on you for distorting the facts. Shame on you for inverting victim and aggressor. Shame on you for spitting in the face of truth. Mr. Mamdani, since you were elected mayor of this city, many Jews no longer feel safe in NewSong York. They talk to me. They tell me this isn't the city we remember. It changed so quickly. Now, it's no wonder you praise criminals convicted of supporting Hamas. You count as friends people like Hassan Piker, who said America deserved 9 11. America deserved 9 11. Some friends you have. You invite into your home a Palestinian journalist who filled Hamas terrorists beating and torturing Israeli hostages and later admitted that he refused to publish the videos in order to protect. You guessed it. The terrorists. Your wife liked a post praising the October 7 massacre. She liked another post saying Tel Aviv shouldn't exist. You refused to condemn any of that. You falsely, repeatedly accuse Israel of genocide. Mr. Mamdani. You tried to stop me from coming here. You tried to silence me. Well, you can't silence me. You can't silence the truth. And here is the simple truth. Here's a simple truth. Israel didn't commit genocide. Israel prevented genocide. And that's exactly. That's exactly what Mr. Mamdani's Hamas buddies would have done to us had we not stopped them. They would have killed every last one of us. The lies you and other anti Semites spread about the Jews and the Jewish state have real consequences. In NewSong York, Jews are threatened on the way to synagogue. Jews have been stabbed in the streets. Jews are demonized. They're targeted simply for being Jews. Jews have been murdered in Sydney, Manchester, Montreal, Boulder, Colorado. They've been attacked in Los Angeles, London, Paris, Berlin, Washington, D.C. the anti Semites of the world want to terrify our people. I have news for them. The days when Jews were defenseless victims marched to the slaughter. Those days are over. Today we have a state. Today we have an army. Today we have a, people ready and willing to defend ourselves. So today, today, I have one message for Jews around the world. Raise your head high. Be proud. Be confident. Don't be intimidated. Stand up. And for everyone else, everyone else who wants to defend truth and justice? Join us in standing up to the barbarians who threaten our common civilization. But I have to be candid with you. Not everyone is standing up. We saw that. Because unlike Israel, there are some, and most recently especially in Western Europe, who have chosen not to stand up. The leaders of these countries have chosen to succumb to the anti Semitic mobs. They have chosen weakness. They have chosen appeasement. We cannot evade the sad truth before us. Many in the free world are afraid to defend freedom. And I ask them, what will this future? What will this behavior, what will the world hold for you? The Brotherhood of Democracies or the Muslim Brotherhood? How long will it take for you to see that these fanatic geodists are choking your waterways, your energy supply, your economic lifeline? I can assure you, ladies and gentlemen, we in Israel, we do not wait for others to wake up from their moral slumber. We forge ahead. We seize the future. We pioneer incredible developments in health, agriculture, artificial intelligence, superior intelligence. And we bring these amazing innovations to all of humanity. So Israel has never been stronger. We are not afraid. But I'll tell you who is afraid. The tyrants of Tehran, that's who. And you know what they're most afraid of? Their own people. The brave Iranian people who have sacrificed so much for so long. The Iranian regime is especially afraid when their people have this. When their people have this. This is a communications device, Starlink, that allows people to access truth, to exercise choice, to exercise freedom of thought and freedom of speech. That's why the Iranian regime spills, rather spends millions and billions of dollars censoring the Internet. Mr. President, I'm going to leave this device with you so you can give it to the Iranian delegation. So when they inevitably defect, they too will be able to freely tell their story on social media. To the protesters outside, to the hypocritical delegates who left us all, I ask, where were you when the Iranian tyrants butchered and maimed tens of thousands of unarmed Iranian civilians? When they butchered and maimed thousands of their own people? Where were you? Did you organize mass rallies? Hunger strikes? Did you protest outside the Iranian mission to the un? Did you speak out, for that matter, for Christians persecuted in Iran and throughout the Middle East? No. No, you didn't do that because you're phony human rights protesters and Christians. You know that their numbers are plummeting everywhere in the Middle east where they're being persecuted and hounded, except one place. My country, Israel, where the Christian community is growing, thriving, succeeding. In fact, you didn't protest when we left Bethlehem, it was controlled by us. It was 80 to 90% Christian. And we gave it to the Palestinian Authority. And today it's 80 to 90% Muslim. Everyone. The Christians were shoved out. Did you protest that? Did you speak about that? Nothing. Nada. And you said nothing about Iran. Just now, you said nothing about Iran. But I want to give you the good news. Despite your silence, despite your hypocrisy, it's only a matter of time that in Iran something incredible will happen. The power of the people will overcome the people in power. I want you to listen to my words carefully. One day, and it may not be far away, the Iranian people will be free. Their murderous regime will be toppled by its lies, by its corruption, by its cruelty. This evil regime will fall. And we will all celebrate that day. Ladies and gentlemen, the story of my people, the Jewish people, goes back over 3,000 years. We speak the same language. We speak the same language today that we spoke then. We live in the same land which our ancestors lived then. David, Solomon, Isaiah, Jeremiah. That's our land. The land of Israel. Our prophets, our purpose and our people are unique in history. Our values have inspired humanity for millennia. The belief in one God, the sanctity of life, the rule of law, our eternal quest for peace, our eternal quest for justice. It is these sacred values that propelled us throughout the ages. It is these values that helped us beat the odds of history. The great American writer, Mark Twain said it best 125 years ago. He said it well before the rebirth of the modern Jewish state, well before the great victories of Israel's soldiers. Here's what he said. the Jew has made a marvelous fight in this world, in all the ages, and he has done it with his hands tied behind his back. The Egyptian, the Babylonian, and the Persian rose, filled the planet with sound and splendor, then faded to dream stuff and passed away. Other peoples have sprung up and held their torch high for a time, but it burned out. And they sit in twilight. The Jews saw them all, beat them all, and is now what he always was, exhibiting no decadence, no infirmities of age, no weakening of his spirits, no slowing of his energies. Ladies and gentlemen, over the centuries, the tyrannies that tried to destroy us failed time and again. And God willing, they'll continue to fail. If we muster our courage, if we steel our resolve, we will continue to win. As the Bible says. the eternity of Israel will not falter. And the reason is simple. We have no other choice. Thank you all. Thank you.
Sandy Rios: Well, that might be the most applause Netanyahu or any other Israeli leader, leader has ever received. And that was by, you know, maybe a fourth of the or a third of the assembly. Pretty amazing, Amazing speech. And I think it stay, it will stay with all of us. It's really true. Even for us in America right now getting ready for this midterm. I hope you understand what's at stake. I hope you comprehend that if we don't get out and vote and vote for the right people, and they may not be your favorite people, but hopefully they're not communist, Marxists, destroyers, crazy, immoral people who want to bend the morality on genders. Whether it's the candidate, for Senate in Texas. It's just we are living in strange times. Times where you would think that no one would vote for the people that we're seeing. And yet, because if you're a conservative, especially if you're a Christian, if you don't vote, I guarantee you they will win. Not voting is not a sign of virtue at this point. It isn't. It isn't. You're going to have to check the box for people that you might not prefer. And some of you have an option of really good candidates and that's great, but it isn't always possible in politics. So I'm telling you that we have to win. We must win this election. Everything will be undone. You worry about gas prices right now. I've told you those gas prices are going to fly up like crazy if, if the the conservatives don't win in the House and the Senate, if the other side takes over, everything will be lost. The borders will be open. You just can't even imagine. And I'm just begging you to please just. The battle cry is we have no other choice. We must win this election. We have no other choice. And that's my plea to you. Well, before I say goodbye to you, I want to remind you that PreBorn is our sponsor. And you know, if you're a business partner or someone who has an enterprise, would you consider a larger donation to claim a write off for a gift to PreBorn? A donation of 1,000, 2,000, 10,000 or $15,000 will sponsor an ultrasound machine for a needy clinic. That would be pretty satisfying, I would think. And of course you'd be helping to save countless babies lives for years to come. And all the gifts are tax deductible and will and will reach eternity. They will do that. God knows everything we give and everything. We don't, doesn't he? So I ask you to do that. Just go to preborn.com sandy preborn.com sandy and make your most generous donation.
