As a member of the Israeli Likud party, I am blessed to be the personal friend of numerous leaders and heroes. My old friend Gilad Erdan, who I knew since he was first elected to the Knesset in 2003, was recently appointed to be Israel’s representative to the United Nations, in parallel to being our Ambassador to the United States. Here is a powerful speech he gave at the UN, emphasizing with great clarity the moral duty of Israel and the entire peace-loving world to oppose Hamas.
