Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu addressed the United Nations General Assembly in New York on Thursday, slamming the world body for its indifference to Iranian threats to wipe Israel off the map and for encouraging Palestinian rejectionism.

Netanyahu said that the Iran deal “doesn’t make peace more likely,” but by giving Iran billions of dollars in sanctions relief the deal makes war more likely.

Iran has boosted the delivery of supplies and troops into Syria, he said.  “It did all this to prop up [Syrian President Bashar] Assad’s brutal regime.”

He said that Iran had delivered SA-22 and Yakhount missiles to Hezbollah in Lebanon in order to target Israel. In addition, Iran has built armed drones for Hamas and the Islamic Jihad in Gaza, Netanyahu said.
