CBN.comJERUSALEM, Israel – Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu accused U.N. Secretary General Ban Ki-moon of giving a tailwind to terror.
Ban Ki-moon condemned Palestinian terrorism but also said Israel's "occupation serves as a potent incubator of hate and extremism."
Netanyahu reacted angrily.
"Those Palestinians who murder do not want to build a state; they want to destroy a state and they say this openly. They want to murder Jews for being Jews and they say this openly. They do not murder for peace and they do not murder for human rights."
Netanyahu said the U.N. lost its neutrality and moral force years ago and the secretary general's statements won't improve the situation.
At the U.N., Israeli Ambassador Danny Danon said, "The facts don't lie. The Security Council has been hypocritical when it comes to Israel."
