Netanyahu wants peace with Arabs, not Palestinians

Like all his recent speeches to the annual UN General Assembly, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s Sept. 27 address to the international forum successfully concealed the Palestinian issue behind the Iranian bomb.

Netanyahu has made it a habit to lash out in such speeches at Western Europeans for allying with Tehran and at the same time embrace the Arab states that fellow victims of the Iranian menace. Netanyahu told the UNGA that the 2015 nuclear agreement with Iran had brought Israel and many Arab states “closer than ever, in an intimacy and friendship that I’ve not seen in my lifetime and would have been unimaginable a few years ago.”
