'You are a coward': Danon confronts Iranian UN representative in heated confrontation
"You are a coward, and your leaders are cowards hiding underground," Danon told Iran's UN representative, warning that Tehran would face consequences for its support of terrorism.
Israeli Ambassador Danny Danon confronted Iran's UN representative in a heated exchange at the United Nations. Danon accused Iran of attempting to obstruct Israel's efforts to coordinate a draft resolution in the UN Sixth Committee. He warned that the Iranian regime poses a threat to European countries and the free world, funding terrorist proxies, rebuilding nuclear and ballistic missile capabilities, blocking the Strait of Hormuz, and killing 50,000 innocent Iranians.
Danon specifically targeted Iran's aggressive actions, stating that they threatened Israel, the United States, and the Gulf states, and now Europe. He published a map of dozens of targets in Tehran. Facing Iran's representative directly, Danon declared, "You think you can intimidate us? You are a coward, and your leaders are cowards hiding underground. Sit quietly with your head down and be grateful that you are allowed to sit here. The price you will pay for the terrorism you spread has only begun to be exacted."
Danon addressed the Iranian people, promising that soon they would reclaim their country and bring this evil regime to justice.
