April 15 (EUROPA PRESS) –
The Israeli ambassador to the UN, Gilad Erdan, denounced this Sunday before the United Nations Security Council the “attack of epic proportions” launched on the night of Saturday to Sunday by Iran against Israel and has asked for immediate measures to be taken to stop Tehran.
The world “must stop ignoring Iran's crimes and act.” “Iran's mask has fallen and the world's complacency must also fall. The mask falls and we must put on the gloves,” said Erdan, who defends “imposing all possible sanctions on Iran before it is too late.”
“We need a world led by Churchills, not by Chamberlains,” he said in reference to British Prime Ministers Neville Chamberlain, denounced for appeasing the Nazi regime, and Winston Churchill, who led the United Kingdom in the war against Adolf Hitler's Germany. during world war II.
“Enough of red carpets here at the UN. Enough of appeasement. Today the Council must act, condemn Iran for its terror, activate the reverse mechanism and restore the crippling sanctions,” he added. This response “is not for Israel, nor for the region, but for the world.” “Stop Iran today,” Erdan snapped.
For the Iranian representative “the only option is to condemn Iran and resort to all necessary means to make them pay a high price for their horrendous crimes.” “Iran and its axis of followers must see that the civilized world is no longer paralyzed,” he said.
Erdan recalled that Iran has launched 170 drones, 120 ballistic missiles and 30 cruise missiles carrying a total of 60 tons of explosive. “Iran has shown again that it cares nothing about Islam or Muslims. The Iranian attack seriously injured a seven-year-old Bedouin girl, Amina al Jasuni,” she noted.
In addition, it has shown a video of Israeli anti-aircraft systems “intercepting Iranian projectiles over the Temple Mount and the Al Aqsa Mosque.” “For Iran, the annihilation of Israel and burning down the region is more important than the Islamic holy places. The Ayatollah regime wants to impose global Shiite hegemony through its subsidiaries”, the “tentacles of the Shiite octopus”, he highlighted.
Erdan has thus denounced the “plan of the ayatollah regime”, which aspires to “dominate the world by exporting its radical Shiite revolution.” “Today's Islamic regime is no different from the Third Reich and Ayatollah (Ali) Khamenei is no different from Adolf Hitler,” he said.
This regime is the one that “is approaching nuclear capability,” “a terrorist state responsible for global terrorism.” “The deadline for the production of an arsenal of nuclear weapons is now weeks, just weeks,” he lamented.
Erdan has warned in any case that Israel reserves the legal right to respond. “We are not a frog in boiling water. We are a nation of lions. After this massive and direct attack against Israel, the entire world, not just Israel, cannot sit idly by,” he stressed.
