Israel Blasts UN Security Council for Elevating Palestinian Issue amid Ukraine Crisis
(Algemeiner) As Russian forces tightened the noose around Ukraine on Wednesday, Israel's Ambassador to the UN Gilad Erdan questioned the UN Security Council's priorities as it focused on alleged Israeli offenses. "As we sit here debating legal disputes and false allegations, the clouds of unrest, violence, and war cast long shadows across the world," Erdan said. Erdan added that since the Middle East was the topic of conversation, attention needed to be focused on the Iranian regime, "the real threat to the region" and "the world's number one state-sponsor of terror." "A renewed Iran deal will permit the Ayatollahs to develop and operate the most advanced centrifuges, while shrinking the breakout time of a nuclear Iran to almost zero."
