On April 14, Israel’s UN envoy, Danny Danon, was preparing for a short appearance before the UN Security Council at noon. Danon had readied a brief speech describing how Hezbollah has been arming itself uninterruptedly.
In an interview with Al-Monitor conducted at UN headquarters in New York, Danon said, “I am going to say something very harsh about the double standard toward Israel — that the blood of the Jews in Israel is no different than the blood of the Jews in Brussels and in France, and then I’m going to ask them why they condemned the terror attacks there and not the terrorism in Jerusalem.”
