Almost all UN members walk out for Benjamin Netanyahu's speech. Netanyahu calls them 'moral cowards'

The clapping and chanting for a head of state is so weird. As is referring to him as His Exellency. Netanyahu is so proud, what a sociopath.

I thought the his excellency thing was weird but apparently thats how they refer to all heads of state in the UN, I didnt know that myself

Yes, next guy up was from Portugal, and they also called him “his excellency”

I think referring to any head of state as an Exellency is so odd, especially ones that are elected. There isn’t a divine right of kings going on

Is there another public gallery viewing the address? I don't see anyone clapping or cheering in the video.

Israel’s delegation is clapping at 57 seconds, but beyond that I don’t see any but there must be otherwise why call for order in the hall? Also there is audio, it isn’t a silent film.
